For starters, I love how Sven (the nice creator) is making EVERYONE want to be adopted by him, Solar included. Do NOT tell me you didn't see it.
Speaking. Speaking of Solar. He...is way too cute to hold that much sass. "I'm good at robotics, I can't perform miracles!"
I'm glad Molton trusted Moon enough to let him reprogram him. It was sweet.
And finally, it was fun watching Moon and Solar gang up on Sun (in a non-toxic way). Beautiful sibling bonding.
Top notch episode, really. ❤️

I don't know if this covers all the bases, but feel free to respond or not.
Have a nice day. Night. Whatever time it is where you are-
Something I made while dealing with my own stuff and hoping drawing this would pick me up somehow. Maybe it worked.
FT my cat. His name is Mischief
I love this moment of them, they deservers a Show :,c
Since the current arc is making a point to bring up withers and Sun is now sensing wither shards I'm posting the wither trilogy for those confused on it's constant mention
part 2
avoid writing in bed if you can. writing in bed is the mind-killer. writing in bed is the little death that brings obliteration. you may think "but i can write AND be cozy" you will get sleepy so fast. 98% of the time when i try to get a nighttime writing session done in bed i go to sleep. maybe 70% of the time if it's an afternoon writing session. also it fucking kills your wrists.
STRETCH before writing. stretch as many parts of your body as possible ESPECIALLY YOUR WRISTS! i have chronic tendonitis in both of my arms from not doing this and it is manageable but it is Not Fun!
plug your phone in on the other side of the room. better yet, plug it in and leave it in another room. better yet, power it off and leave it in another room. "i'll just check one quick thing" do not underestimate the power of the doomscroll.
do a warmup. look up writing prompts (i like one-word prompts or prompts that focus on a general theme as it's easier to integrate into my writing style), set a timer for fifteen minutes, or ten, or five, and go ham. make it shitty or incomprehensible, as long as you make it. create a dump document for all your warmups. i currently have two novels in the works that started as one of these fifteen minute little warmups.
pick your background noise ahead of time if you use it, and look for something long. i listen to 3-hour-long silent hill ambient mixes on youtube dot com.
take breaks. around every 45 minutes, as i'm noticing myself begin to lose focus, i get up, grab a drink, get my blood flowing, and give myself some space to breathe.
sometimes i sit down to write and i think "every atom in my body is averse to doing this right now. i would rather dance barefoot on a bed of nails than open my laptop and start typing." and you know what i do? i go do something else instead. don't force it! it will become a chore.
that being said! write as often as possible. try to write every day. try to write at the same time. don't beat yourself up if you can’t, BUT the more often you write, the more often you'll want to write.
if you're stuck on a scene or a page or a chapter, go back to the last place where you felt like you knew what you were doing and start writing from there. keep a copy of your other writing in case you want to reuse it or refer back!
i don't know if this is something that will be helpful for other people but i start mentally preparing myself for my writing session a few hours ahead of time. i will say to myself, "today, at this time, i'm gonna sit down and write that scene where mina walks out on her book club, and it's going to be awesome and i'm looking forward to it." then, by the time i actually begin, i basically have the whole thing written out in my head and can just put it down to paper. it's a good way to at least kickstart the session !
ok thanks bye
These two are precious beans and no one can tell me otherwise! I loved the scene where Dazzle and Sun hugged each other after she got her new body. It was very sweet and I had to draw it.
I love the bond these two have with each other so much. And I can't wait to see what else they’ll get into.
Person A is from a city where everyone born with supernatural abilities is sent outside the city walls to protect the city from the monsters that roam. When a child is found to have an ability, they are removed from their families and kept at and trained at a government facility. They are usually given a different name, and rarely get to return to the city, but parents go to the wall to wish for the safety of their taken children. Person A plans to not have children and contents themself working as a nanny, but when they accidentally meet Person B, a rogue super human, trying to care for a few super human children they stole from a government facility, Person A ends up dragged into the mess when they instinctly went to soothe the crying children before learning the whole situation and getting mistakenly labeled by the authorities as an accomplice to Person B.
You know how Dazzle said Jack taught her how to kill someone, right? Imagine if she were prompted to do so in her new body.
Like, hypothetically (realistically, I'm 78% sure they wouldn't actually do this), Moon gives Dazzle a knife and forgets to tell Sun. Dazzle doesn't tell him because she doesn't think much of it, obviously.
But one day, when Dark Sun or Nexus, or whatever threat comes into the Daycare, Sun watches in horror as his little deer daughter just starts stabbing at their ankles.
Moon gives a quiet thumbs up. Lunar is cheering her on. Earth is too stunned to speak.
And after the threat is over, Sun tears Moon a new one- physically and/or verbally.
Okay, that is all. *Tries to squeeze back through the crack but fails*
I'll...just use the door.
@baa-whatever Can either you or me redraw this? I absolutely love this image so much that I’ve kept a screenshot as to not loose it to the tumblr sea. I’d love to either see a redraw from you or redraw it myself with Dazzle’s new design but I wanted to ask first.
IT'S OFFICIAL
SUN HAS A BABY!!
🎉🎉💖💖
Because no matter how Nexus refuses to acknowledge, he is still Moon. He has the same attitude, the same way of thinking, the same ego, the same way to react to things when he is desperate.
(Doing things without thinking, being so impulsive and self destructive, throws everyone care about him out of the window )
And when he went down the deep ends, he hurt everyone around him without caring.
It's just that he is more childish, and more self-deprecation. Like the nerd kid that tries hard, in his teenage rebel phase, he tries to do things he thinks will make him the opposite with Moon, but actually it is not.
That is why Nexus is so tall now, because he wants to be more superior than Moon. He also makes himself monstrous, because he thinks badly about himself and thinks this is what him deserve, this is him being a monster. He wants to cut ties with everyone so badly, yet, he still thinks about them, and wears the sign that obviously people would know it is a Moon model because no matter what he did, he can't get rid of himself.
And well, like people said, you only hate someone if you loved them first.
Nexus joked about Earth's burn because it still leaves a mark inside Nexus's heart. He wants to kidnap and torture Lunar, because Lunar distrust him and never try to get close with him anymore after the "Eclipse event".
He mocked Sun because he knows he let Sun down, and that still haunts him until now.
If he truly doesn't care like he said, he wouldn't let them inside his head like that. And that is sad, because just like Moon, Nexus only knows about hurting people who love him the most.
Like the boy in the kindergarten who only knows how to express his love for the girl he likes is pulling her pigtails.
This is great. I love the peanut.
It reminds me a bit of Winnie the Pooh art style ❤️
My guess on what Dazzle or Evelyn will probably look like. A tiny little deer.
Hi.
I Have Been Internally Crying For The Past Five Hours.
I've been waiting for this moment, but oh, my gosh, WHYYYHYHYYY- 😭
I'm looking at you oc community
YAY you have a world. Great! Now write down what happens on a normally- what are your character's daily routine. And my favorite part, why is that their routine. What makes them choose that? Are they constantly doing new thing cause they're afraid to be by themselves? Are they constantly by themselves because they are afraid of rejection? What would take this comfort zone and burn it to the ground. Create a list of ideas and pick your favorite.
Create a list of each character's goals and motivation, I'll be making a post on how to find that soon btw. Can the plot be based of these goals?
Pick THE MOST IMPORTANT goals.
Find the characters with different goals. YAY conflict!
You have to know your characters fears for this part. Not like heights like no one will ever love me if I'm not always perfect.
How are they dissatisfied with life:
What do they think will bring them happiness:
What could they do to be happy:
How has their fear stopped them from taking this action:
How do they think they can get their goal without doing the thing that makes them afraid:
6. Then use the situation in point 1 to create the environment that kick starts it. Use the goals and motivations to show why they do actions and boom!
Happy writing!
I'm flattered how many folks on here like my doodles ;U; so here's some more old doodles waahh,,

I encourage everyone to not only be aware of Project 2025, but educate yourself on exactly what is — a nearly one thousand page document by Conservatives that describes the creation of an authoritarian state and dismantling of major necessary agencies (EPA, Department of Education, etc), as well as including a plan to remove those who hold high government seats and replace them with loyalists who have little to no experience in that field.
An estimated 41 million Gen Z teens will turn eighteen before this election. Please make sure you are registered to vote by November, and be sure to get to the polls on November 5th.
Maybe this is the wrong platform to pose this question given the average tumblr user but
Is it just me or did our generation (those of is who are currently 20-30 ish) just not get the opportunity to be young in the 'standard' sense?
Like, everyone I talk to who's over 40 has all their wild stories about their teens and 20s, being young and dumb, and then I talk to my friends and coworkers and classmates, and we just... dont.
If we ever get Old Moon back (which we won't, but oh well), I want both him and New Moon to exist simultaneously. Like, I obviously miss Old Moon, but I don't want him back if that means New Moon would disappear.
But imagine all the silly scenarios if they both existed, and were forced to interact on a daily basis. Like, obviously at first they wouldn't like one another, that's pretty clear in New Moon's case, but just imagine.
For the sake of this post, I am going to refer to Old Moon as Moon, seeing as he was the first with that name, and to New Moon as well... Newmoon. Very creative, I know.
Like, imagine them, just at eachother's throats, trying to strangle the other, and then Sun comes in and suddenly they are in different ends of the Daycare, one at the security desk and the other pretending to have jumped down from the balcony.
Imagine them having this sibling rivalry, competing to spend time together with their favourite person in the whole world: Sunny Boy! Like, they are recording for the channel, and then one comes in and just attacks the other for the right of recording with Sun. Like, suddenly it's just: "Get off of me!" and Moon's then like: "Sorry for that, what were we doing again?" because the one not originally in the recording won, but has no actual idea of what's happening. And the Moon that was knocked down just being tied up in the room behind, screeching profanities.
Newmoon just running up, and grabbing Sun, who was having a converstation with Moon, and just dragging him off with a: "Come on!", while Moon's left flabbergasted (the audacity!).
Imagine Moon just doing all those "Oh noo! The gravity!" sibling stuff, and just falling on Newmoon, while Newmoon's trying to get him off, but the little bastard's using magic to weigh himself down.
Imagine Sun just waking up, walking out of his room, and his two idiotic siblings are just hiding very obvious weponary, but suddenly both of them are just sweetly asking if Sun wants to spend some time with them. Just some good ol' brotherly bonding. Together. Just the two of them. :) Without the loser.
Just imagine Sun's resigned sigh, and just silently leaving while the Moons duke it out, to spend time with Earth and Lunar. And then the Moons look up, and where's Sunny? D:
Them just competing for ✨Best Big Brother Spot✨, because they both wanna look cool in front of Earth and Lunar. Because let's be real, Moon would have adored Earth. (It's kinda canon, if you know the first deleted Earth introduction video)
Harvest (as I mentioned, I call new Bloodmoon this) would have no chance of getting to Sun now, because there's TWO helicopter siblings sitting on his head, making everything lovingly miserable. Like, my guy can never be alone if one's always with him. Especially if they are both competing for his time and attention, seeing as both are unused to someone always wanting to be with Sun.
The shenanigans with Ruin while he was still 100% infected would probably happen differently, cause let's be honest, Moon was a lot more paranoid, than Newmoon is (understandably). Heck, we might still have Spaned and Yargo insread of Spaniard (although I do like him), because Moon would be suspicious of Ruin wanting to shake both hands, and not let Newmoon touch anything without examining his hands first.
Newmoon would also absolutely stand up against Moon, when he acts like a jerk, and call him a twat to his face. While Moon would help redirect Newmoon's anger at himself, so it's them shouting at one another, instead of Newmoon accidentaly shouting at Sun.
Newmoon would probably call Moon out, if he was being a jackass, and Moon would probably also bite back, if Newmoon was acting stupid.
The two of them, sleep deprieved, would also be terrifying. Like, imagine these already insane mfs with even more questionable sanity, just going: "You know what would be a good idea? Flamethrower. That can shoot icecubes. And looks like a videogame controller." and the other (probably Newmoon) going: "Great idea! Why didn't I think of that?" And just this abomination blowing up in their faces. Sun's crying in the corner. Is he crying from laughter? Is he crying in general? Who knows?
And the furry incident. Oh, the furry incident. If it was just Newmoon turning into a furry, Moon would be recording every second. Before family movie nights, he'd just stand up and be like: "Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention?" and just putting the entire Newmoon turned furry video on. And that's the second he'd get tackled by Newmoon trying to smoher him with a foam block. A laughing Earth and Sun would have to drag him off.
If both turned into furries, Sun would just come in to them having the biggest argument, over who fucked up. Like it'd be the most five year old level argument on the planet. Both would be pointing fingers, because obviously it was the other one that messed up! And Solar would just come in like: "Heey >:)"
My poor guy would be in danger.
Moon would probably atleast attempt to be a bit nicer with Solar, seeing everything. Like, we know that Moon was aware, that Solar was a nice Eclipse, and willingly sent Lunar there alone, so I feel like he'd attempt to act friendly.
But this furry incident, if it happened to them both, would unite them against the greater evil, Solar, in what will essentially turn into a prank war. They'd totally lose.
If it was just Newmoon turned into a furry, then it'd be Moon and Solar teaming up, and essentialy bullying poor Newmoon. All lovingly, of course. Like, poor Newmoon would never be able to forget the one time he got turned into a furry.
Just imagine all the fear from them playing a mannequin game, and both pretending to not be scared. "I'm not scared! You are!" and then both just gasping in insert scared Moon noise. Like imagine them playing that art gallery game from Dread X Collection, they'd both be so fucking afraid. The one not playing would attempt to act all macho, saying he isn't scared, but then panicking just as much as the one playing. Sun would have to be called.
If both were around, Jack's building would have happened a bit differently too. Moon would have wanted to oversee it a bit more, so maybe all those poor dogs would not have ended up in Antarctica. The Creature(tm) would probably still have some kinks that needed to be worked out but, ultimately they'd either be less, or entirely different. Cus, yet again, Moon's paranoid. He'd not trust others' work as much as he trusts his own, so that'd need to be a part of his character journey. To better trust in others.
But just imagine the Solar-Newmoon-Moon Trio. Absolutely unstoppable science nerds. Ruin, if he's still evil, would stand no chance against them. Harvest would be beaten already, torn to pieces. Stitchwraith would have to face these three's combined righteous anger, rabid dog energy, and mad genious. The Creator would find himself with multiple ridiculous weapons aimed his way, all ready to go off, held by trigger happy individuals who run on the animatronic equivalent of caffeine. Eclipse who? You mean this smoldering pile of atoms?
They'd be an unstoppable science trio. And an unstoppable family. Because they'd tease one-another to death, but only THEY can bully the other. And maybe Sun, Lunar, Earth and Solar, but even then they should get ready to pay.
Imagine Moon's reaction to meeting Forkface for the first time. He'd develop a hit and run mentality in miliseconds, then just skedaddle his way outta there. He's maybe not leaving Sun to the wolves, but that's very dependant on how close he is to Forky. He'd totally use Newmoon as a shield. Newmoon's crying.
Newmoon would know better next time Forky appears, and throw Moon into the 'danger'. "Take him, not us!" "Why me?!" "You're the older brother!" and just leave. He'd get out of there as fast as he can. With Sun. Maybe.
It'd be incredibly fun to have this. But it won't happen. Witch is fine, that's what AUs are for!
But I've never before seen anyone putting them into a situation together (coulda missed it). I think their characters would balance eachother out, bring out aspects that weren't seen before.
Moon would take on this more mentor-like role, while Newmoon would be at constant odds with himself and Moon, because he doesn't like Moon as a person. He hates what he sees in Moon, and is afraid of becoming like him.
I think it'd do Newmoon a world of good if he could see that while not in an obvious manner, there is good in Moon. And it'd do Moon good to have someone with more similiar interests to guide, someone who WILL step up to him, someone who will encourage him to do better, to be better.
They are just so silly, and I love them both. :D
One, I am SUPER happy for Sun for getting better! I am absolutely certain that things will not get worse after this-
(I'm so sorry, but we can all sense it coming.)
Two, it's really cute seeing Moon and Dazzle interact. I was kind of scared when he pointed out that Dazzle was able to talk without their voice box. For a minute, I thought he would figure it out.
But, I guess we'll have to wait for July 16th for this devastating secret to come to light.
I'm gonna go fix the ceiling.
"p.s. let me know if Brandy and the kids want one, too! I can have them done in a jiffy."

I LOVED their episodes sooooo much they are so cute omg
hey tsams fandom why dont we just all be friends and hold hands? we're all sharing the playground theres no reason to start wars, and DEFINITELY no reason to harass people and send gore and smut and death threats. lets just all be nice to each other okay? okay.
block whoever you want, dont engage with stuff you dislike.... just dont be a dick needlessly? you're just stirring up more negativity by retaliating than if you just left it alone.
"this person is wrong and blah blah blab" okay. block that person. dont send them gore and death threats. okay? okay.
lets just all be nice to each other okay?? okay!!
