all tomorrows if it was animorphs style childrens media
pretty unbelievable that in spite of the insane level of flesh ripping edits to turn him into a human bird this is still instantly recognizable as Jerma

Magical Girl Aika
my first aika drawings!
it's so funny when people say they've been following the development of these characters for years when it's only been 7 months LOL. it does feel like it's been forever
@the-regular-regulus sent a message:
I have an ask of concern, given any fandom's neverending cycle of always going to misinterpret/flanderize characters one way or another, especially if it's their claimed blorbo, do you ever get worried the same might happen to your ocs like Aika?
eh it’s whatever, that’s just always been in fandom. fandom for animated stuff is generally filled with young people and tweenagers/teenagers and that’s just part of the experience i think!
there’s definitely characters i misinterpreted when i was younger and kinda molded to fit into my own fantasies or ideas. but that’s how you learn! i look back and cringe at that stuff and see how off base i was and can look at those characters now from a different, more understanding lens. but the fact that i was writing at all and thinking about the characters and drawing them helped get me to where i am and im a better writer/artist because of it.
so yeah idk it doesn’t bother me. i think it’s easy to jump people for misinterpreting a character but generally im happy people are thinking about these characters at all. from my perspective as someone who’s been in fandoms, i get that it can be frustrating to see people interpret a character you really like in a different way but like,,, i quickly realized it generally doesn’t affect me LOL. it’s very easy to just move on and do your own thing!
I cannot trust the artistic opinions of anybody who can't frankly admit that the vast majority of whatever's produced in their chosen medium (books, film, etc) is unsalvageable pigslop. But also that dogshit amateur art is critical for said medium. AND that pigslop and amateur dogshit is different
Publishing is largely a machine cranking out entire forests' worth of garbage not worth reading. AND your unedited, barely-coherent 500k word Super Smash Bros fanfiction is vital for the soul to flourish. There is no contradiction here
It’s the difference between doing something badly with apathy and doing something badly with great passion
Only one of them allows the opportunity for growth in understanding and appreciation.

That love language shit is so fake I can’t believe like adults take it seriously
“My love language is physical touch” = annoying
scam texts aren't even trying any more. i have to pay my taxes? at latina fiesta dot co???
proshippers dni not because of the actual shipping but because you talk like harry potter liberals about fandom on serious political posts
