Note: These are mostly inspired by drawings of @/kermahillway and I’m also trying to keep the character’s personalities as “canon” as possible so none of these sound OOC.

  • Bratt is a Gemini (charismatic, clever, adaptable) and Maxime is a Leo (ambitious and attention-seeking), the compatibility between those signs is high.
  • Their pet names are Lovebug (Max) and Mon amour (Bratt).
  • Max introduced Bratt to South Park, the former star quickly disliked it and felt extremely uncomfortable when he noticed that many of the characters sounded just like him. Though, every time someone brings that up, he denies it.
  • Max watches Animal Planet and sometimes falls asleep on the couch, points if he’s drinking tea.
  • Bratt loathes modern TV shows, specially anime and reboots. The former media due to its sexualizing of teenage girls and very long titles, the latter due to the constant mischaracterizations of once beloved characters and trying so hard to appeal to modern audiences by appearing “supportive” of minorities.
  • The only modern show Bratt finds enjoyable is BoJack Horseman, as he can easily relate to the main character, the show’s setting, and Sarah Lynn. Specially Sarah Lynn. Despite all of this, he sometimes watches the shows Max watches just to spend time with him.
  • Due to being half cockroach, Max gets sugary cravings from time to time. He tries to control himself to avoid gaining too much weight and potential diabetes.
  • After escaping prison, Max moved in with Bratt per the latter’s insistence. Bratt was NOT happy to find out his BF’s hideout was in the sewers filled with cockroaches. After a few disagreements and discussions, Bratt allowed Maxime to bring some of his cockroaches to his hideout.
  • Maxime can communicate with cockroaches and puts some of them on spying duty, keeping a careful eye on his enemies without their knowing, hence why he found out about Gru Junior’s existence.
  • During his childhood, Bratt took power of attorney over his own parents and got emancipated at age 13, right before entering puberty. With the money he made in his career he built his lair and moved there.
  • Clive got recovered from the AVL storage by Bratt himself. After getting reassembled, he met his creator’s boyfriend and immediately got jealous. He silently opposes the relationship and tries to make Maxime look like an idiot, but this always backfires.
  • Maxime is lactose-intolerant and gets really mad when someone assumes he eats cheese every day because he’s French.
  • Bratt is the one who tops during their moments of intimacy, Maxime has tried to position himself as the one in charge, but fails and accept his role as a bottom… not that he complains.
  • Maxime’s favorite singers is Chappell Roan.
  • Bratt creates his own choreographed dance moves which are extremely difficult and complex, and he also mixes them with a few martial arts movements.

That’s all I have for now. Enjoy.

Did anyone else feel bad for Benji? Everyone in the team treats him like trash, the idea of making a fake totem was actually pretty smart, and even though it looked unconvincing it was still very smart. In an earlier episode Ivy said she wants to show people that actors aren’t mean, and yet she tells Benji his fake idol looks like a stick in a condescending tone and rubs it in his face.

Also I’m glad Diego’s not in the game anymore, otherwhise it’d be TomJake drama all over again with Spencer!

People often say to me: “You draw like some kind of inhuman machine.  If I eat your brain, will I gain your power?”  The answer is yes, but there is another way.

The key to precise drawing is building up muscle memory so that your arm/hand/fingers do the things you want them to do when you want them to do them.  Teaching yourself to draw a straight line or to make sweet curves is just a matter of practice and there are some exercises you can do to help improve.

If you’re going to be doodling in class or during meetings anyway, why not put that time to good use?
