I forgot how to write a Chinese character's name in Chinese. Galaxian moment for sure.
I went through the 2 most recent docs and couldn't find it.
I hope he likes his new name /j (I'm pretty sure I remembered it correctly)

Don't worry, last night I forgot the name of an important character in my OC world lore and had to rename her 😭

Thank you for the reassurance. I will do it again

I sure do love being the only one who works on the same type of group project every week both in class and out of class, taking away hours that could have been spent designing characters or staring into emptiness or just, y'know, using my time as I would've liked to.

Reasons why I cannot be a teacher: I would flip out at people who don't participate in group projects. I would literally defenestrate people. Idc if they're 16 years old, if they don't want to learn gravity through F=mg then this is going to be their alternative curriculum
(Legal disclaimer: I have no intention of being either a teacher or throwing people out of windows)

I feel like I've never mentioned how much of a soft spot I have for Kjera, and also her relationship with Pramanix.
A certain Chinese animator pwned me on the first day of the event with an animation about the two of them, which was definitely something.
I'm not too sure why I like her, but I guess the very saturated blue on her design probably plays a part.
Here's fanart of the two of them btw:
They're very interesting characters, and maybe I have a weakness for blue lipstick. I am actually not sure.
Also, I apparently have 197% Trust with Silverash (and so, it's carried over to his Alter form). I did not expect that.
I was reading his profile and the entire time, he was just dusting lint off his shoulder, which I found really funny. The profile is pretty much some person in Rhodes Island analyzing/speculating on his plan to become the Arknights equivalent of Lelouch from Code Geass, just for Kjerag, and the entire time, the dude is on the left just patting his own shoulder.

Idk why I keep forgetting that I'm a maniac when it comes to expression sheets
I don't do them well, but I enjoy making them immensely. Maybe a lil too much.

I enjoy when I ask my mind what I should draw for Berserker and it says, "Draw him photosynthesizing"
What does that mean.

I'm sure I will enjoy redrawing this in 20 years.
Seriously speaking, I think he's the sort of character who needs turns of the head and slight changes in posture in his expression sheet to reach maximum potential. Otherwise it's just
>:( >:(( >:((( >:(((Lol

Man I sure wish I had a thread to work off of
It's hard to draw expressions for Rensa. He's expressive but only depending on the situation (what Xuqiao would say probably lol. Idk)

Dude has zero chance of integrating into modern society. He doesn't even look like an actor who got a really good makeover or got too far into his role. He just is.
No wonder he doesn't try lol

Berserker feels like he would eat raw tofu
He assumes since modern people be eating raw things all the time then that goes for this cubic, soggy block.
Ianthe finds him elegantly using a fork, eating tofu right out of the square container
I enjoy my characters' version of high intelligence.

I kinda feel like Rider and Assassin would later poke fun of him for doing this by saying a variation of "This goes in the square hole" (I friendship Rider and Assassin for no reason)

The reason why Saber doesn't have more info on their page is because when I open it, I get a desperate longing to draw them excessively
Also: I love "Lingering Heat/Ice" (I call it "Lingering Feeling" lol) so so much (LB 6 music is so good, and part of it is probably how much the story integrated with the OST)
"Lingering Ice":
"Lingering Heat":
I personally prefer the latter version, but I hear it more. My preferences are typically rock-solid, so it's not like the disclaimer is doing any actual favors.
(Lingering no longer looks like a word. It was on thin hecking ice already but man)

I am so weak to piano, violin, zither, flute, and pipa.
I say that, but I'm pretty much just weak to music. I like music. Well...certain music. But I found out that I even like heavy metal in moderation, so there's that.
I have a particular weakness for piano chords that are designed for maximum emotional impact. It gets me every time. I'm like some sorta one trick pony but for piano chords.
Saber does feel like the sort of person who would be able to self-learn pipa. But they don't show it because most of the time they just plink plonk away randomly when they get their hands on one
(They would not do so well with a violin.)

I keep on having weird encounters with the police
They just come strolling by the moment I do the weirdest thing I will do all day for some reason. But my luck is average because there's always that one friendly officer who will pretend like he didn't see anything amiss and still say hi.
I was going to say run-ins with the police but, no, no, that's not the term. I don't do run-ins with police.

I think it's funny to double down on imagining Raez and Wiley are just friends
You've heard of fandoms crackshipping random characters for no reason, yes? Now watch the creator of two characters pretend they're definitely in each other's friendzone. Reverse gaslighting.

To be clear, this is not new. This is just the historian or Mildly (or Not) Homophobic Author approach (where they pretend their characters, who are definitely into each other, are not because it goes against their beliefs, and get upset at the fandom for seeing what they wrote correctly. It's some hilarious crap)

Btw, I'm actually not talking about Death Note. Just to be clear. I am not ambiguously pointing out any work in particular, just saying that it definitely does happen.
This sort of elaboration is not very helpful, is it.
I actually do think that it's more funny for Light to be an aromantic/asexual psychopath, because of L's entire speech on monsters who don't understand love. 'Course, I will happily parrot the "Hey Light, what's Yagami spelled backward" meme just because. Plus if you were to go directly by that singular line of reasoning, Light does genuinely love his family...in his own way...so it wouldn't hold up.

I think it's kinda funny that I have a poignant poem about geese in my signature while YouTube keeps recommending me videos of geese being absolute jerkwads to beavers
Also here is a very cool music video titled "Tower of Babel" by Yoko Kanno:
I've always had a bit of an obsession with the concept of the Tower of Babel. It was just so wacky to younger me that it's one of the only biblical stories I remember. (I have an unsubmitted character who references it, that pretty much sums it up)
Aside from that, I "discovered" Yoko Kanno only a week or so ago. I think it's because I'm totally unfamiliar with the anime that she's written stuff for, except for (apparently) SPY X FAMILY's second OP lol.
She said that the Japanese like the imagery and concept of Christianity, but Shintoism (which is more prevalent there) consists of many gods, so they aren't really religious in that sense. That led me to think: "Oh yeah, the Chinese are like that too." You can see it in how Arknights handles Babel, too. And obviously I love that, so...maybe I am Chinese after all.

The bots are getting more convincing ngl.
Idea: I add a registration question asking users to praise the Gapple Gods. Vote yes if you're human, vote no if you're a bot or AI generator.
Asked Google AI this (via Google) and it said "No." Good AI. (At least it's honest.) Head pats.

I'm trying to figure out if Saber is more like a moth or a bat.
I honestly think both can work. So maybe they have moth and bat moments.
You've heard of Batman, now get ready for Batmoth (Saber's True Name)
