hey :D I really enjoy your seijoh plants AU; maybe a nekoma version?

Ah thank you so much ^-^<3 I'm really happy that you like the plants AU.

To be entirely honest, this was more of a joke idea we had on the IwaOi BigBang server based on some silly talk and how there are animal versions of many characters but not Seijoh because they don’t have a mascot animal and less a serious AU concept, so I probably won't do any other teams as plants >.< But if that is something you're interested in, I will definitely keep it in mind for the case that I ever run out of ideas ~

'sup, suckers!? *lights blowtorch* The Volleyball Club sends its regards ~

(Forgive me for my sins >.< Anyway I needed to practice drawing humans a bit & get starting on my TropeFest Bingo, so have some genderbend MatsuHana ~ Can you tell that I haven’t done proper art in over 2 months and was too lazy to do anything but the bare minimum >.>? Baby steps... baby steps)

Thank you for the tag~ Please tell me more about/show me more of How not to be an immortal 101 with Oikawa Tooru! It sounds super fun! ^o^

ahshs okay, so I need to see that I don't start rambling about that one XD It's an IwaOi spin-off to my TsukkiYama Urban Fanstasy University AU. Also mini TW for gore and death to be safe.

Essentially Oikawa was born during the Copper Age, though his tribe is betrayed and he gets murdered on his wedding night by his own fiancé. But because Oikawa is Oikawa he refuses to accept his death and resurrects himself out of sheer pettiness, ending up as an undead spirit of vengeance who feeds on the hearts of the living. Queue to Oikawa just... stumbling through history and finding himself in all kinds of places until he meets a half-dragon hatchling (Iwa) and due to a lack of alternatives decides to start life over (again).

Result: Oikawa Tooru, accidentally immortal, Mayan deity, bane of the Roman Empire, inventor of the great pyramids and parttime Oracle of Delphi, follows his boyfriend to university to study architecture and discovers that his entire life experience of ~8k years is practically useless. Because none of it could have prepared him for dealing with a creative slump on his design assignment, Ushijima following him around campus and pestering him to join Shiratorizawa fraternity and Hanamaki continuously stealing his glasses because he's too lazy to go buy his own pair.

So long things short ~ lots of uni shenanigans and Seijoh 4 being dorks, with a good pinch of yee old angst and relationship drama + some urban fantasy magic and mystery spice 👀

Finally finished some art that I started mid February—was originally intended to be an attempt at more realistic hair but while this was collecting dust I got a rather radical cut, rendering this kinda obsolete, so now it's just a shading and bit of a design experiment)

Happy KyouHaba day! As some of you may know, a bunch of us have gotten together (a little last minute) to create something special for KyouHaba this year. Beautiful Tension is a free unofficial fanzine dedicated to one of our favorite ships that brings together twenty-six artists, writers, and even a cosplayer in a 220 page digital zine! With 13 illustrations, an entire cosplay photoset, and over 50k words created just for this event, we hope you enjoy! And please remember to spread the love to our lovely contributors who were working on a rather tight deadline, they deserve it~!

You can download the zine through Google Docs here!

Never Change A Running System

Fandom: Haikyuu (My contribution to the @ngczine) Type: Short-Story (5.1k words) / Canon-Compliant Focus: Next Generation Seijoh Ships: no explicit mentions (but feel free to imagine the classics) Rating: General/Teen Up (for occasional swearing)

Summary:  Watari is starting to think something went wrong when all the new first years are coming to him instead of Yahaba - but maybe, considering that his best friend is busy taming a certain Mad Dog, the underclassmen's fear is justified.

Or: A story about how Yahaba, and with him all of Seijoh, struggles to fill out some big footprints

“Watari-Senpai!?”

He looks up at the five first-years, presenting him with an assortment of items. The suction cup for uncovering the holes in the gym floor that harbour the net poles. The hand-full of pins used to secure the net. A whistle. An empty drink caddy. And a clipboard with nothing clipped to it.

“Yeah?”

“Where should we put this?”

Watari opens his mouth, then he stops, furrowing his brows, and looks around the gym.

Sure, he is a third-year now and technically a senpai, but still—there are other people better suited to ask such things. The captain for example. Or the vice-captain.

In retrospect, Watari should have been able to deduce the cause of their absence by simply listening.

After all, Yahaba is yelling at near peak volume, which is not nothing, but to Watari, yelling in the Aoba Johsai volleyball gym has become just another form of white noise after spending two years under the care of Iwaizumi Hajime.

His best friend has Kyotani in a headlock, shaking him viciously. The Mad Dog looks relatively unimpressed, face turned away, arms crossed over his chest, lips pursed in a silent ‘tsk’, giving short, snappy comments in response to the dressing down, which do nothing other than sprinkle oil into the fire.

Watari sighs—oh not again!

If he were a first-year, he’d not go anywhere near that either.

Then his fellow kings and him enter the room Hajime has dreaded for months. He doesn’t really know what he expected. Maybe a torture chamber with a thousand eyes painted onto the walls and the constant, hellish echo of people laughing at him, but the council chamber is just another, circular room, decorated with noble curtains and golden trinkets. ~ All the King‘s Blades, Chapter 2 - Challenge

Art and design made by me!!! Do not trace, copy, steal or heavily infringe!

Okay so I had this version almost finished, before trying to find the text passage in my draft for Chapter 2 where I described the room and noticed the fu*king “noble curtains” and because I am weak spirited, I just made 2 versions (please punch me). Anyways I swear I am working on actually writing the damn thing but AKJSDBCNALVNCF have I mentioned that I am WEAK!?

"Why haven't you written this thing you said you'd write?" You see, my writing strategy is like if I had a list of ideas on a dartboard and I put on a blindfold and spun around three times before throwing the dart and sometimes it miraculously lands in the center where the idea I should work on is, but usually it misses the board entirely and lands on a brand new idea

I got super lucky and was able to contribute a next-gen Seijoh fic to this awesome zine, so please go check it out (it’s free to download) and give lots of love to all the other amazing contributors!

Art Trade with @corginauttmblr

(Character Meij belongs to them, Art made by me)

So a couple weeks ago I decided to design myself a carpet/shoe mat for my kitchen/entrance way (my flat only has 1 ½ rooms >.<’’) and today it arrived.

The colors didn’t quite turn out how they should (as you can see the blue of the background got rather dull, but this photo also doesn’t have the best lighting so it’s still better than it looks) but I still wanted to share this little experiment, especially because I’m considering adding that kind of pattern design to my art commissions and making myself a new phone and/or laptop case with this particular one. I also made a bunch of other variations but I‘ve only added the most „relevant“ ones here.

So anyway this was super fun, I finally have somewhere to take off my boots without messing up half my flat and I can’t wait to try around with pattern designs some more ^-^

Here is the last I’ve written of Searching for The Weird Cat (...again) to prove I have not forgotten about it and am, in fact, working on the conclusion atm >.>

The fiery red of the slowly setting sun casts everything in a glow that Alphonse doesn’t know how to describe other than as ‘holy’, despite him being a convicted atheist.

Those are 30 words and I DO NOT KNOW this many people on Tumblr, not even by a long shot. For now I’ll just tag all my favorite writers I can think of on the spot

The peculiar case of Tadashi Yamaguchi

Fandom: Haikyuu (My contribution for the @hqurbanfantasybang) Type: Chaptered (3/3 - 40.1k words total) // Urban Fantasy AU ; University AU Focus: Unknown Species!Yamaguchi (Yamaguchi/Kuro/Bokuto friendship/support/mentorship) Ships: TsukiYama, BokuAka, KuroKen, IwaOi & DaiSuga; implied LevYaku, UshiTen, KageHina & MatsuHana Rating: Mature (descriptions of blood and injuries & explicit language)

Summary: Tadashi Yamaguchi has problems. As in: A lot. People can't stop reminding him that he smells tasty and they'd like to eat him. His best friend and he are indirectly responsible for burning down their previous university. He can't figure out how to stop turning orange whenever he's nervous, keeps hitting his antlers on the lintel and the lion's tail growing out his back seems to have developed a mind of its own. Oh, and of course there is that cute but grouchy med student vampire living across the hall who he is crushing on hard but doesn't have the courage to ask out! On top of everything he now has to transfer to a new uni and try to survive campus chaos. Luckily, a pixie with chronic bed-hair and a shapeshifter who transforms into a duck rather than an owl whenever he's upset, decide to take him on and teach Tadashi some confidence. Inbetween mysterious mentors, headless centaurs, annoyed dragons, hungry werewolves, kickboxing archangels, literal gods and sassy half-ghosts he isn't quite sure if they are actually helping his increasing anxiety attacks, but hey... it's the effort that counts, isn't it?

Read on Ao3 -> The peculiar case of Tadashi Yamaguchi

Preview:

“So, tomorrow is the big day, isn’t it?” Yachi asks and Tadashi takes a sip of tea.

There is nothing better than a witch’s homemade tea, even if the blonde’s speciality is time-based magic and not herbology.

“Yeah,” he nods and shudders.

“You got this!” she reassures him, but her own hands clench nervously around her cup as she goes on, “I mean Central is a big uni with lots of people - you can blend into the herd and nobody will notice you, that’s good, isn’t it? It has to be good!”

“I hope you are right,” Tadashi sighs. “I still wish I could have joined your uni” - ‘If only it wasn’t a damn expensive, super fancy, private one!’

The two of them met about a year ago, in the bathroom of another uni out of town. Both of them had been invited to an application interview and both of them had been so nervous they needed to throw up. Eventually, they bonded over rinsing their mouths at the uni-sex sinks. When Tadashi was in need of a place to live, Yachi volunteered to vouch for him with her landlord who owned several flats in this building, the one he is living in now included and since it’s one of the smallest it’s surprisingly affordable.

It’s not like his family is poor, they get by quite well, but Tadashi doesn’t want to be a financial burden on his mothers any more than he already is, since his tendency to attract trouble in combination with his non-existent self-confidence has gotten him either denied or fired from every job he’s had so far.

“Me too - then I wouldn’t be so alone in my design classes anymore,” she frowns into her cup. “But doesn’t Tsukishima-San goes to Central as well? Maybe you could stick to him and - oh”

From the look on his face, she must have deducted that plan already went down the drain - rather spectacularly if he might say so. Yachi is well aware of Tadashi’s crush on the blond vampire. He appreciates her attempts to help and her encouragements every time he gets flat out ignored in his attempts to organise something that could count as a date if you just squint hard enough!

2020 was kind of a mediocre year!? Like I experimented a lot with textures, brushes and layer modes in shading and lighting especially and I really like what I created but it doesn’t feel like I’ve had any major break-throughs unlike the last years ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, if you are interested in my art you can either visit me on DeviantArt as CharlyLee or on the Arts&OCs Amino as Charly Lee OR you can have a peek at my art tag #charleedraws OR check out the single pieces here on Tumblr ~

January | February | March | April | May | June | July | August | September | October | November | December

And while I know that 2020 technically isn’t over yet, I have decided to quit art for now, since I have a hell of a lot of writing to finish and also exams to prepare for, so I’d still like to wish you all a merry rest of the year and let’s hope that 2021 will be a better year or at the very least less of a clusterf*ck!

Two (somewhat galaxy themed) pieces I recently did as contest prizes on the Arts&OCs Amino.

Left - JoJo OC belongs to LazyBlue Nishimura (on AAOC Amino) Right - Anthro OC belongs to Acamue (on AAOC Amino)/PandaPop333 (on DA)

Characters belong to them, art made by me - pls don’t use/trace/copy.
