I Feel The Need To Inform Everyone (considering I Just Remembered) That There Is A Character In The Idw

love him

Nostalgia :)

listen to me. if youre an adult you have the ability to be an unfathomably kind influence on a child. i had a good teacher who let me break down in the hallway for the whole period because he noticed me crying in class, and before that he complimented my writing skills and encouraged me to persue writing. and man ill never forget that teacher as long as i live for even the miniscule acts of kindness. be kind to kids. you never know whats going on that you cant see.

you know what, I’m not done posting about baby bats!!!

here is a fact for you: rescued baby bats are regularly given little blankets and swaddled up like itty bitty bat burritos! this is a whole Thing

Oh, and sometimes they get tiny pillows!

And they get fed out of teensy baby bottles!

They are even given mini bat pacifiers to nurse on 💕

in conclusion, here is a baby bat yawning:

BABY BATS!!!

Eerily beautiful modern nihonga paintings by Matsuura Shiori (she also does a lot of bijin-styled art, some hinting at wlw!). For her take on Japanese monsters, the pieces shown here are:

One of the most beautiful jorougumo depiction I’ve ever seen (the tangled butterflies in her spiderweb-hair <3)

A banquet going amok because of mischievious rokurokubi and nopperabou, and their tsukumogami (animated objects) suite

A falsely serene Otsuyu from the Peony lantern ghost story

Crokery tsukumogami and a very curious investigating cat

Make-up tsukumogami and sleeping white cat (maybe a bakeneko as hinted in the mirror)

What's going to happen to me now?

Here are three needle felted white bats :)
