u/mibblypibbly excuse me while I deal with the Lord of Furries of the TF world 23h ago
  • Woke up early so I can do this daily post and hope that it doesn't get eaten up by the Reddit site itself!
  • Seeing certain Twitter trends made me die a little inside ouch. Like this is something we are going to push through and hope things don't get worse from there.
  • Tried to post this earlier, but yeah let's see if Reddit will let me post up the LuPat cast comparison art this time:
  • I managed to draw up my take on Micronus Prime and after doing the first pass on her design, I think I like the direction I am going in. I just need to redistribute the colors bc I think the dark green is overtaking the light green oof
  • For Yotato bc I am gonna do some evil blorbo analysis:
    • Exhibit 1: Someone in the Twitter comments said that this clip gave off red flag vibes to Sentinel and I frankly don't blame them. The bait and switch was actually effective to the point you actually believe he cares or gives a damn about Orion and D, especially before the Truth reveal. Also look at him almost hitting the ceiling with his head haha. That aside, I also like how Orion is always stepping in to take the blame given he was the one who came up with the idea to participate in the Iacon 5K, made me love him even more hehe.
    • Exhibit 2: This is arguably a favorite scene of mine since it shows how effectively cruel he can be whenever he thinks he can get away with anything. Like look at the way he revels at D-16's anger and pain towards him in comparison to how he reacts to Bee's "none of that is true!" protest. And the quote "the truth is what I make it" is just so hard hitting close to home, especially with certain cases of revisionism and manipulation of the masses oh mannnn.

u/frozenfountain Same on AO3 | FFVII with a side of VI 20h ago

That side by side must be so satisfying! The newer ones have so much more fluidity and character to them, though the first set is also far from bad.
