I see a lot of positivity posts about 12-year-olds just learning to draw. Posts cautioning us to be mindful of 11-year-olds with no grasp of anatomy and 13-year-olds whose characters are all the same person with different hair and clothes, and I love those posts. Those are great posts. Keep those posts coming, tumblr.
But can I ask, what about the 25-year-old who just bought their first ever sketchbook? What about the 32-year-old who’s been drawing for a month and has just about got the hang of a human-looking face? What about the 67-year-old who finally has time to sit down and learn how to paint like they’ve always wanted?
Not everyone starts drawing as a child. Not everyone learned as a preteen. Some people start in college. Some people start when their career is going well and they feel like it’s time for a new hobby. Some people start after they’ve retired.
Not all beginner artists are kids, and I just think the adults ones deserve some encouragement, too.
Had an idea for an Anti x reader. Anti develops a bad fever and sore throat and ends up spending the day in bed. The reader comes into his room to give him some medicine and finds him sleeping. They notice just how….innocent he looks while sleeping, how vulnerable. How different he looks from when he’s awake. A stark contrast to the man who’s so angry with the world and who seeks attention so desperately. It hits them just how broken he really is. He starts having a nightmare while the reader stares at him and they see his expression change to child-like fear. The kind of terror that breaks your heart to see. That makes you want to shield him from the horrors of the world. He wakes up, practically in tears from whatever the nightmare was and gets when he sees the reader, upset that they saw him so vulnerable. But the reader is understanding and offers him comfort. He resists at first but eventually grudgingly accepts. And he soon realizes just how much he really did need a shoulder to cry on.
Reblog if you would be comfortable living in a dormitory with an openly transgender or intersex individual. We’re working on a campaign for gender neutral housing and we could use your support.
It is a tad bit weird, but he could simply just be super busy with PAX prep (which takes a lot of time and effort) or his own personal life too. 🙂
…. Maybe he is seeing all our recent chaos over today’s title/ description/ blue lights and he’s just watching it happen. But I’m settling for the former answer.
What if Anti had Heterochromia? One of his eyes was blue and the other eye was green?
I know what you’re saying (what if Anti himself had heterochromia), but I still want to point this out; in “Kill Jack”, Schneeple’s eyes did change to a greenish tint at times (probably due to Anti’s influence) but take a close look at this image:
