Ok to everyone who is in this, sigh i gotta see how many tags I remember. @Through The Living Glass @Halcyon The Only @alittleinsane. @MirkerLurker @Kaladin Stormcursed @The Sly Cookie  @Block @KnightSkye @Magi @Wittles @Ancient Elantrian  @Dragonheir  @Heraldoflove @Ironwill2112 @Just A Silvereye  @SpiritOfWrath @strmblsd @The Wandering Wizard

think… that’s all maybe…. @anyone else i forgot. 

So I’ve been really wanting to draw alot lately. Though i dont feel like doing fanart i wanna draw real people. So i got an idea. I want to draw pfps. They would be in the same style as mine is. (Which is now my official style. Yay i gotta something i can properly say is mine) and have that electro mask. All i would need to know is the color of clothes and the clothing type and hair color/length. Also like your shoulder like looks. I wanted to do this for the people who are a part of this club. So no one is alone  pm me if you want me to draw one.

Good luck with mine. It's gonna be Super difficult.

Thats.... so... so so sad. What was your childhood

Lots and lots of reading books and playing in the woods behind our house. We did have a TV, but rarely used it - the only show I watched regularly growing up was, er, um, Megaman NT Warrior.
(Look, in my defense, I started watching in the middle of the series, and in the third episode I watched one of the main characters 'died', and it felt dramatic and impressive. I still have fond memories of the show, though I like the manga books better)

20 hours ago, Through The Living Glass said:

I'm the same way. I've just never been allowed to watch TV, so . . .

Yes! We got a TV partway through my childhood, but screentime was extremely limited. It was very exciting to get sick, because then I was allowed to watch Disney movies.

 

20 hours ago, Thee insane said:

Yessss you too @MirkerLurker start with phantom menace and attack of the clones. Then, clone wars movie, (clonewars micro 3d series if you want to but that was just an outline), clone wars the show, then revenge of the sith, bad batch, tales of the jedi/empire. Rebels. Rouge one, new hope, empire strikes back. Return of the jedi. Those are the more important shows/movies. There are shorter ones that all suck alot and then i didn't put the sequel trilogy cause it sucks. Don't watch the ahsoka show or the acolyte. Those also are so factually incorrect. I'm pretty sure that's all

I. Am. Insulted. That. Is. The. Most. Eeehehejdjskodb

I have, in fact, seen Star Wars. I got shown them during high school, when my friends found out I'd never seen them and were aghast lol.

None of the people in any of the Star Wars movies fight well, from a true combat standpoint

15 hours ago, Thee insane said:

When fighting with a lightsaber its different from any form of sword fighting because, a, it's a circle so it's sharp on all edges, b, it's a laser. And also they use the force and have different gravity.

Ig I remember correctly the best fighter was either Ewan McGregor or Hayden Christensen.

14 hours ago, Kaladin Stormcursed said:

That’s…that’s really dumb of them. It’s no more cowardly than groin-kicks—that is to say, not at all. Rules like that are typically adopted by fighting styles that have become more tournament or competition-based than actual self-defense or combat-based. It has nothing to do with being cowardly, and if introduced would make combat a lot more interesting because then it becomes more a game of tactics than strength, thus leveling the playing field a bit. That rule to me seems just a lame way of avoiding intense choreography work.

Not intended to offend in any way, this is just something I feel strongly about from my and other people’s experience with combat.

Yes to both of you! I'm so sad I missed this, it's a great debate. Star Wars is a fantastic example of stage combat and its differences from real combat. I actually train in both stage combat and real combat, and there's a ton of difference between them. Stage combat is, at its core, meant to look cool. To draw the viewer in, to make it easy to see who has the upper hand in the combat, to make it exciting.

Real combat, as I'm sure Stormcursed would agree, isn't about looking cool, it's about winning - and often doesn't look good from a visual standpoint as a result. Fights are over fast, or they're a jumbled mess of struggling, or they're won with small efficient movements that are hard to see. That idea of blink the blade on and off to get past the guard? Incredibly hard to see clearly on-screen - a large number of the audience wouldn't know what just happened. A confused audience is a disappointed audience, and a disappointed audience doesn't pay well haha.

so i'm sick, and i stayed home today, and i don't know if i'm going to stay home again tomorrow (probably, i haven't slept well in a while because when i cough at night, it makes it so the most i can sleep in one go is one hour), so i procrastinated on homework at now it's 10:15 at night and I haven't started ugh and my mom might come in my room and give me the whole "you are nearly an adult, you need to be better at not procrastinating" speech, anyways yeah lose age reveal gasp i'm still in school. surprise. at this point i trust y'all

It's really good though! Just a little tragic, but so are like most of brandon's books lol. Unfortunately, Voltron was taken off netflix, and other than a bunch of CDs my mom bought online of seasons 3-6 that i will fight hordes of undead to keep, I don't know where to watch it...

allura...

listen on the bright side of procrastination, i can now do space buns in my hair!!

mentally i'm fine, and by that i mean academically-mentally, not emotionally-mentally, and it's funny how slowly your emotional mental health begins to affect your academic mental health i hate this no why is my brain turning on meeeeeeeee i've been betrayed

*hug* sorry to hear you're sick. Here, some toast for you, nothing experimental about it at all! ...Also some gollum juice, to help you get better faster! *hands over plate of toast and mug with liquid that glistens gold and pours suspiciously slowly* It's, er, it's like a healing potion!

I’m tired of being so uncertain, you know? It feels like every single time I look so much as a day into the future, I get mildly nervous. The further I look, the more terrified I get. 

Kinda wanna just sleep in tomorrow morning, but I can’t, and if I take a nap I’ll get nothing done all day. And my personal projects are all nowhere because I’m lazy but somehow I can work up the energy to make myself eggs for breakfast just to feel like I’m doing something productive or worthwhile even though it would be smarter and technically less lazy to just pick a cereal and eat quick and get to work. 

I just wanna dream all day. Or sleep all day. Or chat all day. I don’t want to do anything. 

Deeeefinitely know that feel. 
You got some good advice from everybody already, I'll throw just one thing in here. Don't undervalue making eggs - you did something, you were productive! When I don't wanna work on the things I need to get done, I make a list of all the things I need to do, and then I start adding more things to it. (Hang with me, I know that sounds dumb.) I keep adding different 'tasks' (which can include "work on art" or "work on that sewing project I started for fun a while back") until I find one that I go "hmm, yeah, I could do that one" and then I do that one, so that I have something I can say I accomplished. So "make eggs" is a task I can do! Yeah, it's not the highest priority thing I needed to get done, but I can go "Yeah, I did something!" and take that feeling of accomplishment and use some of that energy to start the next thing - again, off that extra-big list. And ideally I work towards the more 'important' or priority things. (But taking a day to be productive on creative things is also important. I think your idea of spend some time working on art is a good one.)

(This advice is somewhat ironic, as I usually hate lists and get overwhelmed by too many things - but I also find this helpful. My brain is a chaotic contradictory mess, it's lovely.)
