I Was Feeling Sad So I Spent Almost 4 Hours Drawing This Cheer Myself Up 🙂

little redraw of my very first ever stevatya drawing from back in 2022. thank the titan i finally figured out how to draw steve's face

[image ID: a digital drawing of Katya and Steve from The Owl House from the knees up. They are both smirking and mirroring each other's posture, with Katya holding Steve's coven mask up with one hand and has her other hand on her hip, and Steve holding Katya's BAT mask up and his other hand in his jacket pocket. They are both wearing their casual outfits and the background is an orange scribble.]

The Emperor's Right Hand Man

[Image ID: two digital illustrations, the first of witch depicts the recipe for a grimwalker. Listed from top to bottom is "Galderstone" drawn next to a blue crystal, "Palistrom Wood" drawn next to a log of blue wood, "Stonesleeper Lungs" drawn with a pair of stone lungs, "Selkidomus Scales," drawn with a section of purple fish scales, and "Bone of Ortet" drawn with the skeleton of a human left hand. The second illustration shows Belos from the waist up clutching the hand skeleton in his fist and saying, "How amusing, Caleb. Your left hand will become my right." Both images have dark backgrounds.]

More of my thoughts on this theory beneath the cut! (Spoilers for Thanks to Them)

Okay so we all know Hunter is a grimwalker made from one of Caleb's bones, but I'm convinced it was his left hand specifically.

Like much of the fandom throughout season 2, I was intrigued by Hunter's gloves and his seemingly increased sensitivity regarding his hands. Like most people, I believed he had some scars there, or heck at least eczema, and couldn't wait for the show to finally reveal the mystery of Hunter's hands.

But then Disney Channel released the Monstober promo featuring this clip from Thanks to Them.

[image ID: A screenshot of Luz and Hunter staring straight ahead while Gus looks very excited. Hunter is noticeably not wearing gloves as he holds a flip-phone like object and his hands have no visible scars.]

And I just went!!! what the heck!!! all that build up for nothing!? His hands were just so casually revealed like that? The episode wasn't even out yet and I was already going out of my mind trying to figure out what was going on there.

And then I got to Chapter 16 of Mr_Spinner's incredible fic Strength in Body and Mind and it all started to make sense. I won't spoil too much of the story for those who haven't read it yet, but a part of the plot involves Belos making a grimwalker out of Hunter's wisdom fangs, and this grimwalker often experiences pain in his teeth because of that. Hunter's hand(s) could very likely cause him pain for the exact same reason. Then couple that with the fact that as the Golden Guard, Hunter is often referred to as "The Emperor's Right Hand Man." No matter which hand was used, Belos would think that was hilarious, this is the same guy who came up with the name "Hunter" for a witch hunter's grimwalker.

So why the left hand specifically? Well, first in Hollow Mind it's Hunter's left hand that starts to tremble when the bird palisman disintegrates

[image ID: Two screenshots from Hollow Mind. The first shows Hunter's left hand holding a bird palisman as it smokes and turns to ash. The second is a moment after, showing Hunter's left hand is now empty and he is holding it with his right hand to stop it from shaking.]

and in Labyrinth Runners, it's his left hand again that hurts when Gus high-fives him (and no offense to Gus but that was not a very forceful high five).

[image ID: a screenshot from Labyrinth Runners. Gus has just high-fived Hunter and Hunter is recoiling and wincing in pain.]

BUT THEN Thanks to Them aired and I got the most compelling evidence of all.

As a semi-tangent, I'd like to point out first that Belos enters Hunter's bloodstream through the cut on his right hand. This of course is coincidence that Hunter hurt himself there, but it once again underlines the "Right Hand Man" title. This is relevant as the right hand is the only part of his body that Hunter is later not able to regain control over from his possession, which makes sense.

But the part that he first regains control over is his left hand.

[image ID: two screenshots from Thanks to Them showing Possessed Hunter. In the first, Hunter is using his left arm to restrain his right arm that Belos is using to harm Flapjack. In the second, Hunter punches himself in the face using his left hand.]

How interesting would it be if out of all the parts in Hunter's body, the part he was first able to take back from Belos was the part donated to him from Caleb? The only part of him arguably not made by Belos? I think it would be very cool.

Please note that Belos himself is left handed, so if he is having to use his non-dominant right hand here that implies there has to be some serious resistance from the left. It is also the left hand that Hunter uses to throw the Titan's blood in the water, which makes sense given everything I've speculated so far.

Now, there are a couple counter arguments to this theory, the greater of the two being the fact that a hand is made of 27 individual bones. Why wouldn't Belos make 27 grimwalkers then? I propose that they are each too tiny. I mean come on. How could a teeny metacarpal carry the same weight as a femur or a rib? I think it would also be interesting if being made from many small bones instead of one large bone could have contributed to Hunter looking "the most like" Caleb.

The other less substantial argument is that it's actually Hunter's right hand that hurts after Willow shakes his hand in Any Sport In A Storm. To that I would argue Willow is strong. Like, really strong. She shook his hand so vigorously that his entire body was jerking around. I think that would hurt under any circumstances, plus Hunter seems to recover from this quicker than the above mentioned instances.

So what do you all think? I'd love to hear more people's thoughts and theories!

[image ID 2: the same drawing of Andi as above now with Buffy standing next to her. Buffy has one hand on Andi's shoulder and the other is making a peace sign as she also smiles at the viewer. She is wearing a red shirt and a black necklace.]

Hey so I don’t know how many artists are still hanging around in the fandom but I thought it would be super fun to start a collaborative art piece! I started with miss Andi herself, one has a white background and one is transparent (I didn’t know what would be easier for people). Anyone who wants to can add on to the drawing with any character in their own style :)

There are no rules, no time frames, no such thing as “bad” additions—just please go nuts!! It doesn’t matter whether you’ve made Andi Mack art before or this is you’re first time, just have fun :)

Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac as well as the conclusion of this art series. Thank you so much @fairygclds for helping me with this project, I knew hardly anything about the zodiac beforehand and this art series wouldn’t have been possible without you!

colored a willow from my huntlow comic to de-stress

[image ID: a portrait of Willow from the shoulders up. She is making a surprised facial expression and is blushing a lot. She is wearing her hair in braids, golden frame glasses, and her typical brown and yellow dress. The background is purple and a few blue exclamation points and question marks surround Willow.]

[image ID: a drawing of Buffy, Andi, Cyrus, and Jonah sitting in a grassy field with their pokémon, along with close ups of each kid and their individual pokémon. Andi sits cries-cross and is placing a flower crown on her head. Her Squirtle is standing next to her and is already wearing a flower crown. Andi is wearing a pink and white striped t-shirt, denim overalls, and pink sneakers. Buffy sits with her head resting on her head, and her Charmander standing near her. She is wearing a mostly white t-shirt with the graphic of the pokémon league from Ash's gen 1 hat on the chest, pink capri length pants, and pale green sneakers. Cyrus is squatting and petting his Bulbasaur's head as Bulbasaur eats from a pet bowl. Cyrus us wearing a yellow button up shirt with a blue stripe across the chest, blue jeans, and orange sneakers. Jonah sits criss-cross and his Pikachu sits next to him. Jonah is wearing a dark blue t-shirt with a pokéball graphic on it, dark pink pants, and gray sneakers.]

Andiversary Week Day 5: AUs & Crossovers

Pokémon AU where the GHC+ are Pokémon trainers who travel the world together.

Andi wants to be a Pokémon artist. When she’s not sculpting or painting she can usually be found making flower crowns for herself and her Squirtle.

Buffy is determined to win a Pokémon League and become a Pokémon Master. When she grows up she wants to be a gym leader with her Charmander (who may be a Charizard by that point).

Cyrus wants to be a Pokémon breeder. Or Pokémon scientist. Or a Pokémon documentarian. Whatever he does, if Bulbasaur and his friends are by his side he’ll be happy.

Jonah isn’t sure yet what he wants to do when he grows up and he knows there’s nothing wrong with that! For now he’s focusing on training with his Pikachu and enjoying being young.

[image ID: a digital drawing of Andi smiling widely with a birthday cake in front of her. Andi is wearing a blue blouse with ruffles on the armholes, silver earrings, and a blue hair clip. The cake has yellow and pink frosting and blue candles spelling the number "15" on it. Behind her, four strings of multicolored origami paper cranes hang. The background is pink with some crudely drawn white hearts scattered throughout.]

Happy Birthday Andi!!!

The background is inspired by @disneymack’s paper crane project ☺️

Steve Week Day 3: Music

She's teaching him how to play the tambourine :3

[image ID: A digital drawing of Katya and Steve. Katya is standing behind Steve with her hands on his arms and her chin on his shoulder as she guides him on the tambourine. Red magic comes out of the tambourine. The background is pink with lots of red sparkles. End ID.]

giving me a sparkle brush was a mistake. I'm addicted now.

[image ID: a digital collage of three drawings focusing on Bowie. At the top left is a drawing of Andi’s laptop, with the screen showing the video the two of them took together the first day they met. At the middle right is a drawing of Bowie hugging Andi after she called him ‘Dad’ for the first time. The bottom left is a drawing of Bex and Bowie dancing in their bridal outfits. The background is cosmic looking, comprising of purple and dark blue cloud shapes and lots of white stars.]

Andiversary Week Day 6: Favorite Parallels

I’ve searched across the universe

Seen many things so wonderful, it’s true

But I’ve never seen nothing like you

It’s pretty rare for the Andi Mack soundtrack to repeat songs, so the fact that they used “Never Seen Nothing Like You” three times over the course of the show feels pretty significant. With Bowie’s love of the universe and his journey to reuniting with Bex and Andi, it’s easy to understand why this song is important to his character arc. The use of this song in each season occurs at a significant moment in Bowie’s developing relationship with Andi and Bex, each one paralleling the last. We go from Bowie’s video where he introduces his daughter whom he has only known for two days but already can’t imagine his life without, to Andi calling him Dad for the first time, and lastly to his first dance with Bex officially as husband and wife.

a while ago I got this anon and it got me thinking about the boys helping Julie get ready for school in the morning

[ID: a 4 part uncolored comic.

[panel 1: Julie has a frustrating expression while sitting and sorting through her bag. Willie is standing behind her and has his hands in her hair. Willie says “Julie, if you don’t hold still this braid is going to come out crooked.” Julie says “But I NEED to find my science homework!” Willie says “Just tell Alex to look for it.”

[panel 2: Alex is standing at an ironing board, holding the iron in one hand and waving his free hand in the air. He says “Hey! I’m ironing Julie’s blouse okay? You should tell Luke to do it.”

[panel 3: Luke’s head and shoulders phasing through a crudely drawn door. Luke says “Come on bro, you know I’m still looking for Julie’s other shoe! Tell Reggie!

[panel 4: Reggie stands holding up a banana in one hand and an apple in the other. In front of him on the table are 3 sack lunches, each labeled RAY, JULIE, and CARLOS. Reggie says “Little busy over here ya know!” Across all 4 panels is the artist signature @/secretly-of-course. End ID]
