In love with a dream

I had a dream last night that left me feeling sombre. The subject matter was the tender warmth I came to bear towards this girl. Her sparkling eyes, her strong and flowing movements, her challenging and boldly teasing smiles.. Her feeling in my arms as we swayed side to side, more as an excuse to hug in public than in a dance.

I want to feel it all again.

The mass, the warmth, the softness of the body curled up against my chest, the cuteness of the touch.

A dream more vivid than I’ve ever had before. I want it to come back to haunt me and let me see her once again.

The way she talked, the way she acted, immersed in cosplay her radiating frame.. I couldn’t tear my eyes away, my world infected and changing by her sheer imagination and her skill.

And though I wish to see – to feel – that dream once more I find myself thinking other silent prayers to all the higher powers (in which existence I find it hard to put my faith) that there’s no one on earth quite like her, at least not anywhere that we might actually meet, for fear my sipping tea with Aslan time might come to an abrupt end and leave me no excuses.

Let her be a dream. A dream so sweet the morning’s full of sorrow. A dream that comes to visit more than once again. My dream, my wrenching little secret, a guilty pleasure that I’ll never get to really feel.

and you go “eh, I’ll just play it from the beginning another time”

I’ve been watching Mural Joe’s videos all night and must say there’s noone who can explain colour theory as well as he does.

This time what stayed with me (an a-ha moment lol) is when you paint a shadow that’s more saturated than the object it’ll appear as if the light’s hitting it from behind.

Simple, right? But I would’ve struggled much longer if he didn’t explain that in terms I actually understood lol.

His vids are a gem.

Highly recommended.

I’m making the first week of August (from 1st – 7th) a LevTsukki week. (Why that week? Because it’s the only week I feel I’ll have a bit more time in the near future, no other reason.) Even if I have to draw my fingers to stubs and my brain to mush (still traumatized from last inktober), I’ll be damned if I don’t see it through.

If anyone wants to join me but needs prompts I’ll try to come up with some. But, eh, anarchy for this ship is my personal way to go.

Please direct me to any content you find/create of them during that week.

(Let’s see if we can make this pair a bit less rare)

Btw, blame these two: @icecreamwithsprinkles and @moonislander

Prrrompts

– From insanely practical to practically insane

– Summertime and cherries

– A lesson in style

– What do you put on your eggs?

– Impossible to completely get rid of is only glitter and…

– Show and tell gone wrong

– Sunrises are…

(- Nothing scratches like a cat (an extra one just because))

As mentioned before, you don’t have to use these; any participation is highly appreciated ❤️

I’m conflicted… So I got those drops from my sis (to help me sleep), and the first time I took them (4 instead of 8) I woke up curled up on the bathroom floor the morning after, no idea wtf happened. BUT since I really don’t have a way to fall asleep otherwise I kept taking them every 2nd night (don’t worry, I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow). What I’ve noticed though, my concentration level (especially in the morning) is sooo high! It wasn’t even lunchtime when I finished all of today’s work, and now can completely concentrate on the clients! Maybe I’ll even cook something!!! O_O

I really don’t know if I should keep using them… it seems so fishy, and I don’t like having black outs. There also isn’t a lable on the vile, so I can’t look it up or ask… hmmmmm…..

(I can hear somewhere at the back of my head something screaming “IF YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT IT IS DON’T PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH JFC!!”… hmmmm………)

The cleaning crew threw me out of my office… I forgot they’re coming on Wednesday morning, bc I’m usually at my mothers office in the mornings… so I’ve been doodling by a stream infront of the building… sigh… it’s been 30min… i hope they’re done… i wanna get back to work……sigh……….

I seriously don’t understand the modern way of bouquet making… I mean, what you torturing a bird for? And so many heavy, cold, and unsaturated colours (except for the “love me pink” brain) together … it looks depressing, man…

Tried the google translate app to see how well it works for manga

first, an easy speech.

tapping the square at the bottom translates everything that the app recognized in the pic. Result:

Wtf? Where did the -G come from? Answer: from the f-ing ear. Also, translation makes no sense. let’s remove the ear translation (you can do that manually, which is cool):

yeeeaahhh… wonky, but at least it makes sense.

Let’s try something more difficult, a commonly seen dialect:

Hm?

Google, what did you see?!

^ after a bit of finagling around… still not really exactly it, but passable.

Conclusion:

It’s google translate, what did you expect? basic Japanese knowledge needed to figure the inbetween stuff out. It failed at the first minor obstacle. it’s annoying having to remove recognized but non existent words and letters.
Overall it’s like getting handfull of MMs instead of a full course meal. quick, easy, usable if you know how the language works and just need a reminder of a kanji or smth.

Just… don’t trust it.
