Hi, hello! I have created a pinned post so people can find some of my stuff a bit easier! This masterpost is a work in progress and stuff will be added over time.

You can call me Beige and I prefer he/him pronouns. I’ll post about whatever I want on this blog, but it’s mostly stuff related either to Sky cotl or Skulduggery Pleasant. My Sky stuff is art related, my SP stuff is writing related. Aside from the fandom stuff, I really enjoy writing my own original works (and I mention it sometimes on this blog) and just…posting about whatever. This is a very unserious blog.

I have two relevant Skulduggery Pleasant AUs and an ungodly number of Sky OCs that I’m currently trying to work through in drawing, so I will be editing this post in order to add more to it and testing how certain things work, so on and so forth. Feel free to put any questions or requests, including anything unrelated to my AUs/OCs, in my inbox!

i hate gen ai but i don't like how much i've seen people being nasty and insulting towards high schoolers using it for their homework. high school is fucking miserable and most of the work you're assigned is useless busy work that eats up all your time; students are looking for shortcuts not because they're stupid or poisoned by ai, it's because they know their time and effort is being wasted. if students were made to do less busy work and put under less pressure, they'd be able to learn a lot more and care about the work they're doing, therefore having less incentive to use gen ai.

you have to keep in mind that a student who has to write a 600 word essay doesn't just have to write a 600 word essay. they are a teenager getting up at 6 or 7 in the morning 5 days a week to sit in a classroom for 6 hours straight with a 45 minute break to eat lunch in the middle. then they have extracurriculars, and when they get home they have hours of homework to do for 5 or more classes every night, on top of chores and whatever else they have going on in their life. it is completely understandable that they would take what they see as a way to not do the hours of homework they have potentially been asking their teachers for years to explain the purpose of, because they want time to do literally anything else. hobbies. hanging out with friends. sleeping. whatever it is that they actually want to do.

i am not defending the use of gen ai, but the students using it are not the problem here, it's the school system. students are not being taught in a way that nurtures a love of learning or even really makes the information stick, they're being told to obey, to get good grades and pass tests or else they won't have a future. they know their time is being wasted, so why should they have to put effort in if there's another way?

@suspiciousmammal asked for some pictures of horses in cool tack and I thought I'd already posted these guys but I can't find the post anywhere, so I'm uploading 'em now. They're shitty pics but I took them with the intention of collecting references of the tack, so they serve that purpose well I'd say!

The only part I like about the Oktoberfest are the horses in their gorgeous tack :) Not pictured: All the big draft horses with the huge padded collar pieces are pulling wagons containing up to 20 metric tons of beer. They're usually four our six horses a wagon.

Oh this is absolutely wonderful, thank you!

@elodieunderglass the opposite of racehorses, but still extremely cool.

TOOK ME A FEW DAYS, but I finished their designs! The Matron of Ravens and Frey, who are the respective patrons of Maezeore and Cross (who is @vividvermilion's character).

Frey gets big bug eyes because I said so. The little glass balls around the Matron's hat are trapped souls ☺️ close-ups under cut

due to mayhem 1) looking gorgeous, 2) being an incredible fighter, and 3) his op magic, he cannot go to the golden wasteland without soldiers trying to kidnap him so they can force HIM into becoming a soldier. this annoys mayhem because it means he can't taunt the krill without a group of like 20 armed soldiers waiting for him on the ground, staring at him in awe and wishing they were dating him or something

hey. you. yes you. the one who wrote this. DO IT

Yes ma'am 🫡

one time this nondescript guy came into my dunkin donuts and ordered a small black coffee with blueberry flavor shot, and for some reason that peculiar order stuck with me so much that when, seven months later, i saw him in the parking lot walking towards the door, i quickly made a small black coffee with blueberry flavor shot. he ordered it and i was already holding it. 

i would describe his demeanor that second time as “incredulous”

What the fuck who drinks that

it’s such a perfectly bonkers order because like, most unusual orders are maximalist and sugary but this one just combines the most basic drink with the most incongruous little add-on. it’s the order of a simple, regular man who has something wrong with him

this post always makes me laugh. this guy has the weirdest drink order and he probably never goes to this dunkin’ if it took seven months for the barista to see him again. so think about a coffee shop you go to so little you’re not even sure if you’ve gone there before and you walk in and the barista hands you the drink you were about to order before you even ordered it. he will remember that for the rest of his life

“it’s the order of a simple, regular man who has something wrong with him” gets me every time.

when people like your OCs it is truly one of the best feelings ever. but when they also UNDERSTAND your OCs??? When they say or do something that just makes you go "oh they get it." UNBEATABLE.

Where the Wild Things Go

This one, frankly, was meant to be a short story. It is not a short story anymore. At this point if I wrote long enough I could make it a whole novel.

The story is set in a world in which there is the Civilized Place, where all the Civilized People live, walled off from the world outside. In the forest outside of the Civilized Place is the Wild Place, inhabited by the Wild Things. The Wild Things are once-human creatures who underwent a transformation (often as a child/young adult) that caused them to turn into what they are now, that being the perfect form. What counts as the perfect form changes between Wild Things, and as such they all look different.

The Civilized Place does not like Wild Things and either kicks them out or kills them when they transform, hence the survivors going out to live in the forest. The Wild Things surrender a lot of what makes them human, such as their names, gender, and many of them barely speak, if it all.

Story is about an 18-year-old who starts to grow wings and so leaves to go to the Wild Place, eventually transforming into a six-winged hummingbird sort of creature. The whole thing is various chapters and highlights from their life, from the moment they leave home to the moment they die, many years later.

everyone’s trying to stump the akinator so i’m gonna try and see if he’ll know that i’m thinking of the little symbol on the front of his turban
