A comment on a line that says "Their line of thought was cut short by a loaf of bread hitting their face."

The comment, by Zara, says "excellent line 10/10 no notes"Two screenshots

Top left shows an edit from Eli asking to replace a lowercase h with an uppercase H. The suggestion was accepted by Zara

IF YOU WANNA READ A STORY THAT ASKS THE QUESTION "What if things got worse after the Heroes got their win?" Check out They WILL Betray You on Quibble!!! [ more about it below ] app.goquibble.com/books/book-d...
The Cover for the book, They WILL Betray You by T.D. Elliott and Zara BakerA synopsis that reads: 

In a clash of views, beliefs, and duties, the Party of Heroes find themselves at odds as they deal with the fallout of the crowning point of The Journey—killing the Demon King. When their very natures cause conflict, when their deepest truths begin to hurt them, and when each of them are left alone, who can they really trust? In a story that takes the end of the Heroes' Journey to a lower low, They WILL Betray You is a story that explores complex relationships, the nature of wretchedness, the questioning of control, and the necessity of connection. As they fight to get to the true end of The Journey, each and every one of the Heroes must find their own answers to the question, "What does Heroism truly mean to you?"

DELTARUNE CHAPTER 3 SPOILERS BUT LIKE With what we know now about the Dark Worlds, that one line in Entry Number Seventeen feels really relevant Cuz aside from the iconic Dark Darker yet Darker line, it also says "PHOTON READINGS NEGATIVE" Negative? Like, below zero? Like, Darker than Dark?

Two panel comic in black and white. In the first panel, a bunny sits in the grass, surrounded by sparkles and flowers, on a white background. The second panel zooms in on the bunny's face and the background is black, with white text handwritten in all caps on it: "TOUCHING GRASS ISN'T ENOUGH, I NEED MONEY"

Addy may be the current Sovereign of the Sea, but to bring a time of peace, she had to defeat that who came before Captain Mortimer, the White Whale of the Sea. A living scourge that decimated all semblance of order. A terrorist to some and a hero of rebellion to others #OC #OriginalCharacter #WoM

body hair drawing tips i put together very quickly for tumblr :) #art | #OC
a black and white cropped drawing of a shirtless man. the text reads: body hair drawing tips from someone that likes bears a normal amount. artists note: i'm gonna use my own OC for the visuals, but i recommend looking up reference first! everyone has different body hair; different thickness, layout, pattern, etc.two side by side drawings of a shirtless man, one flat colors and one depicting a diagram of how body hair flows on the body. the text reads: i often see people learning to draw body hair draw it all going the same direction, up and down. This usually looks a little strange - that's because body hair doesn't have the weight to fall straight down. instead, body hair tends to flow with the shape of the body. consider the center line of the bod as a convergence point, where the hair around it flows kind of like a rip current.two drawings of the same shirtless man, side by side. the one on the left is flat colored, while the one on the right is a kind of topographical map of body hair distribution. The text on the image reads: this already looks a lot more natural, but doesn't take density into account. Consider where hair might grow thickets on the body - this isn't universal, and will vary from person to person! This repeated double curved line pattern is my best friend. Remember! Hair grows everywhere! If you want to commit to drawing bears: very hairy people will likely have hair on their shoulders, upper arms, back, etc.Two drawings side by side, the one on the left is the same shirtless man, flatly colored, while the drawing on the right is a black and white close up of the previous image to zoom in on the lineart. The text on the image reads: typically, the denser the hair, the darker it will be. Adding a variety of shades is important to selling the look! I personally like to add density into the lineart itself, with the thicker black lines representing the densest areas. For someone particularly hairy, the hair will actually obscure the shape of things like the pecs and abs, so i will paint over or erase chunks of the lineart to show the hair is laying on top of the body. Lines should overlap, especially in the thickest areas.
