A Fangirl Lives On

Fucking Catch-22, evil-ass bullshit: words in the grant application are both required and banned! You must explain your disability inclusion policy in a grant that bans references to disability!

I'm taking 3 "your character here" style commissions! Select your characters, pick your pose, and I'll draw it!

I started this in high school, and it was the only reason I was able to go to college (ignore the dropout part that came after, I finally went back!! I'm graduating in June!), and the only reason I ever began to believe being an artist was a possible route for me.

I am so excited to keep working hard on art at the @flowersforabel page and have so many new projects going right now!! I hope you'll love and support them, even if it's a different focus!

in fact often if it was kind of safe dads had the babies in their workshops for just that reason as we can see in these paintings:

First Lesson by Akseli Gallen-Kallela (1865 - 1931)

This man has eight of the same shirt and five of the same hoodie. This man memorizes hockey stats for fun. This man will have a cold ginger ale. This man will look awkwardly at the camera with a smile like he wants to incinerate himself in every wet t-shirt contest sports drink ad his mom books for him. This man will take everything you say absolutely literally. That’s French, Ilya. You just said a French word and we’re talking about Russian, are you unfamiliar with your own language. This man takes three days to recognize a social cue. And ten years to name an emotion. You’ll tell him you like him in the most roundabout way and you’ll think you NAILED it, and he’ll promptly have a panic attack on your dick. When he names that emotion finally? He’ll be absolutely relentless and will not stand down; he’s had an emotion and he knows you have one, too. By that point, there’s no escape. He’s imprinted on you and is starting to ovulate in your vicinity. He will bludgeon you with adorable nerd and insatiable ass. And his oral fixation is so mighty he’ll suck your remaining brain cells out through your dick.
