hi walleye tumblr tags are annoying and if u tag smth properly capitalized and then later tag smth else with the same tag but capitalized differently they wont register as the same tag. i know from personal experience
basically what im saying is ur gonna want to recapitalize the tag on ur most recent "my heart went boom" post
Ahh thank you!!! I've been on tumblr for a year now and still feel like I know absolutely nothing about tagging rip, I'll get that changed right away <3
excellent point, I've made more shark Skizz doodles during class, now featuring Tail™!! Also, he's a lemon shark, because friendly sea puppy. ((Bonus, lemon shark = yellow, ocean = blue. imp and skizz...))
Guys Doc's new episode where he and Skizz play poker has me thinking things. I was going to write tonight but instead I made this. Just.. shark Skizz. It's so perfect, for so many reasons. Hear me out:
Poker terminology - Skizz is phenomenal at poker (as proved by Doc's episode), and a shark is someone who takes money from everyone else
Sharks often have lots of scars
Can be scary in certain contexts, but are mostly big stupid water puppies, my beloved
It fits him, I swear. The ripped sleeves, the... other design thingificators. Ok I can't think of anything but IT FITS AND YOU KNOW IT
Shark and Skizz both start with S
Skizz is really cool and sharks are also really cool
Ummm.. did I mention that he looks cool like this? I didn't really change much from my default Skizz design, just made him a little pointier and bam! Shark
Anyways I drew him with lightning in the sunglasses bc he kept saying the storm's coming, so Skizz is now some sort of Shark sea-god of ineffable power who WILL destroy absolutely everyone at poker. Seriously tho, watching him play and hearing his commentary on the hands was amazing, highly recommend
Scar and his Light Fury: Jellie 💙
Part 2 of my Hermitcraft x HTTYD series! A little bit of lore about Jellie is that she has a small genetic mutation where her markings, which are usually only seen under the black light effect of the hidden world, appear slightly darker than they should be, resulting in gray stripes. (To mimic Jellie’s tabby ish stripes irl :D )
got an urge to design ponies oops
The moss man himself! I love his stupid lil guy, he looks just like a tiny glare <3

Okay WOO I'm back. Hasn't quite been 8 hours of sleep, but like, who cares about the specifics??
Okay first, I just want to say amazing chapter as always. First and foremost. It will never cease to amaze me how Impulse and Skizz are completely different characters. You do such a good job of creating individual voices for them, but yet in a way that doesn't feel like a dramatic change? I don't know if that really makes sense? Reading from each pov feels different, it feels like it's genuinely a different person we're viewing, but it also feels like they're one in the same. Like they're the same person in a different font, like they genuinely are made for each other. I'm getting way off track and over analyzing something as simple as an author writing multiple pov's. Okay then. Back on track. This chapter was a delight to read, and knowing most of it probably wasn't even planned and just. Spiraled into existence is very funny to me. Never been this excited to see Skizz's chapter because the things you have the potential to do. My god.
Okay now talking about the ACTUAL CHAPTER!! I'm assuming this takes place the same day as the apology pastries, but I could be wrong. Having Tango as the TA is genius and genuinely threw me for a loop because I forgot Impulse didn't personally know him at first. My first thoughts were something like "wow another blazeborn thats cool. To bad its not tango, or impulse would have thought about him directly by now". And then it. Was Tango. SHAKSJK. This could majority effect the plot or just be a silly thing to add onto the miscommunication pile and I love it. (Also impulse calling him Tongo?? Fucking amazing.) I don't really have much to say about Tango right now, but I'm very excited to hopefully see more of him in the future
Impulse physically counting down the minutes before he gets to leave class, and more importantly, look at the messages skizzley sent? He is incredibly real for that, but also, that man is down BAD. Impulse thinking about and then proceeding to RESEARCH angle culture. The WINGS. His CLAWS. I hate him. I hate him so much. An angles ability to sense others emotions? Walleye the things you've done and set up in a relatively short chapter. Insane.
Now the main thing i wanted to talk about. Certainly not last, and potentially the furthest thing from least, Impulse can see enchantments. First, that is SO insanely cool. Only certain species can see enchantments?? That's such a cool thing?? Not only as a plot device (i see what you're doing. I will be talking about it in a second.) But also just, a super cool thing? I know I'm repeating myself but, I love that?
I'm not really going to try and sort out my thoughts about how this will effect impulse as the classmate because I will be here for a while, and instead just focus on how GENIUS of a miscommunication plot point this is. The moment I read the line "this time noting the white feathers" I knew it was all over. Of course impulse would specifically say white feathers, he wouldn't be able to see enchantments through a picture. Of course he wouldn't have any reason to think Skizzley is an angle, much less his classmate (yes he does. He DOES. he has EVERY REASON TO THINK THAT-) and this is just touching the surface of everything you've set up within this single conversation.
Impulse is now way more attracted to his online friend, he knows he has wings, he doesn't, even for a SECOND, consider the possibility of skizz being skizz, and on top of that. You made Impulse indirectly insult Skizz's wings.
Now, this might not be important, it might not effect anything, I might be reading too far into it. But from skizz's perspective? He shares a personal picture for the first time, it includes a snippet of his wings, and his online friend whom he's grown so very attached to, says some other guy, who ALSO has the name skizz, has prettier wings? Keeping in mind skizz can't sense or feel any emotions online, he has no way of knowing Impulses true intentions. He has no real way to tell if impulse is playing it up for the bit, or if he genuinely thinks this other guy, in every sense of the word, is more attractive. Again could mean nothing.
While I'm here I might as well scream about the emotion thing a bit more. Stepping away from the chapter and plot points, not being able to tell what Dipple Dop is feeling must be so refreshing and so fucking terrifying at the same time. Anyway, back to the story. We know skizz doesn't know what exactly impulse his classmate is feeling towards him. (Something something everybody loves skizz and skizz loves everybody, he doesn't know the different between platonic love and romantic love because nobody has ever cared about him as a person that much vs a really good friend etc etc) he can't know what dipple dop is feeling. For the first time in probably a long time he is almost completely in the dark. We're assuming skizz hasn't put the pieces together what so ever about another skizz with wings, hey! I'm a skizz! I have wings! Because, well there probably wouldn't be over 20 more chapters if he did SKSKAJ
Also SCREAMING AT YOU. SCREAMING AT YOU SO HARD BECAUSE RAAHAHHAHJ if the knowledge that angels can sense emotions gets to impulses head, there is a very high likelihood he will start to avoid his classmate, also maybe gaslight himself into trying to feel anything other than attraction to this man, which would make skizz think he did something wrong, etc etc. Impulse now firmly believes skizzley is somebody else and it's just an insane coincidence. Skizz is one devious author away from spiraling into a mess. There are so many other directions this could go I just DONT KNOW HOW TO PUT THEM INTO WORDSS. There are so many other THOUGHTS that i dont know how to explain. There are so many different paths i can see this taking. you make me so mad. In a good way. I'm angry that you're writing a story that is basically specifically tailored to drive me insane/pos. There are so many more things i could probably talk about from this chapter alone but ive forgotten them because the only clear thing right now is just "they should kiss. For fun. As a reward. Let them kiss".
At this point I've been here over an hour trying to make sure this is somewhat readable because to be honest I haven't fully woken up and it's way to early for me to try and use my brain for sophisticated thoughts! but! We persist! Because you have completely taken over every thought of mine with half baked concepts and ideas on how insanely stupid these idiots are. And if I don't get them out I won't be able to do anything today. I hope you're happy, I hope you're proud of what you've made me (don't stop. I'll gladly embrace insanity if skizzpulse miscommunication college au is the result/silly)
Hi hi hi!!!!!! have I ever told you how much I love your comments and things because I love them dearly and read them regularly for motivation :))
That said, you need to SLEEP. It is critical for your mental and physical health, and you need to be in peak physical condition to handle what the next chapter holds ;)
ALSO THANK YOU SO MUCH I TRY SO HARD TO GIVE THEM UNIQUE VOICESSSSSSS. they ARE made for each other, soul mates, destined to be together in every universe <3 But I appreciate you noticing this so much you have no idea, and I'm thrilled that you liked the chapter :D and I'm glad you're hyped for the next one ((EVEN IF IT"S BEEN A MONTH AAAAA-)) because it's coming soon to an archive near you
That last chapter did happen on the same day as the pastries, you're correct (though, I'm not gonna lie, I haven't payed attention to the timeline at ALL until recently, things just kinda vaguely happen at some point in the week. That said, I did make schedules for each of them that I might release soon). Also YES ta Tango is one of my favorite things, because Impulse needs more friends 👍 (ngl Gem and Pearl were added in the spur of the moment for the same reason because I decided he was going to be in a group project now lmao. That had NOT been the intent when I started the chapter, I can tell you that much). Impulse calling him Tongo made me laugh so much tho, it's just so stupid and I giggled every single time I read it xD
He is down bad, and it's far too late for him to recover >:) I just thought, "what would a stupid idiot do if he had a massive crush on someone?" and the answer was, of course, do extensive research on every aspect about the man that he can think of. Totally normal and not at all obsessive behavior, not at all.
Hehehehehe I love adding little things like demons being able to see enchantments (they can see something else, too, but you'll find out what that is soon enough...). I love adding niche worldbuilding things just because I can :D And demons being able to see enchantments just so happens to be majorly relevant to the plot >:)
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE the enchantments don't go through the screen >:))))))))
honestly, I wasn't expecting everyone to get it immediately, but ig my readers aren't as dumb as Impulse is (/lh). I also love how angry everyone is over this little thing, because he has absolutely no reason to be comparing the two in his mind, now that he has what he believes is solid evidence that they're not the same person--not that he would have ever thought that in the first place. It's simply a coincidence that they have the same name :)
(also, side note for this lil moment: it was directly inspired by the post that started this whole thing from Chipper, which said that Impulse knew they both had wings, but thought that online Skizz was a dove hybrid or something)
oh my, Impulse indirectly insulting skizz's wings? ......
I'm sure that won't come up later :)
I'm not going to confirm or deny any of your theories on how Impulse may or may not behave given that Skizz can sense emotions, but that said, I love your theories and eat them up for breakfast, please please keep them coming. Impulse avoiding him and Skizz spiraling into a mess would be funny though, wouldn't it...
Thank you thank you again for sending this ask in!! I love every bit of it, and also some of your thoughts have inspired me to make... slight edits, let's say, to future chapters ;) What those edits are, you'll never know. because I'm evil.
Look forward to the next chapter in the coming days ((potentially even hours if I get around to it O.o))
[Day 77]
I never realized they all be walking like gamer posture
