The Only Reason They Didn't Kiss At The End Was Cause Of Chinese Censorship

This movie was freaking awesome. I will sell my soul to get the 3rd one out faster

After my 5th theater watch, I am honestly, fully, and completely convinced Jiaozi's film "Ne Zha 2" is a required watch for everyone - if the world stopped being scared of animation outside their countries and quit cringing in fear of subtitles, animated cinema would be rescued from The Mouse.

My artwork for the new @trafficzine !!! This was so fun, and everyone is soso talented, please check it out!!

Doodles of the cube people

They smudged a bit :(

A few full bodies too

May do Scar, Cleo and Joel, idk depends on if my procrastination goes away or not :,)

MY SHIKATEMA FANFIC RECS MASTERLIST PART 1

As someone who has been reading ShikaTema fanfiction for 18+ years, and who to this day reads it on a daily basis, I realized that I should probably make a fanfic recommendation post. I hope this is helpful to my fellow ShikaTema fans. I have read all of these multiple times over the years. I’ll be organizing them mostly based on setting/arc. Bold titles mean they are my all time favorites. I will place an M for Mature or any Explicit fics. I will be updating this list in the future, as I find more fics that I've might've missed in my favorites while writing this first draft, or as new fics are uploaded. Also can I just say how I can’t believe that I randomly decided to work on this throughout Shikamaru and Shikadai’s birthday?

Part 1 will include fics set during Naruto up to the Blank Period (when they were dating).

Part 2 will include a continuation of the Blank Period up to their marriage, as well as some Post Chapter 700 recs.

Part 3 will include a continuation of Post Chapter 700 recs, as well as AU's, Canon Divergent's etc.
