Sleepy team snakemouth π€π€
the commodification of friendship is the most annoying thing to come out of the internet in ages. like actually i love to break this to you but you're supposed to help your friends move even if it's hard work. or stay up with them when they're sad even if you're gonna lose sleep. you're supposed to listen to their fears and sorrows even if it means your own mind takes on a little bit of that weight. that's how you know that you care. they will drive you to the airport and then you will make them soup when they're sick. you're supposed to make small sacrifices for them and they are supposed to do that for you. and there's actually gonna be rough patches for both of you where the balance will be uneven and you will still be friends and it will not be unhealthy and they will not be abusive. life is not meant to be an endless prioritization of our own comfort if it was we would literally never get anywhere ever. jesus.
I made another YouTube video! I am trying to get them out a lot more often. In this one, I show the progress of drawing my new icon, and I talk about my experience of 6 months on Webtoon. πππ I learned a new video editing software for this video, and I'm really happy with the result! Follow the link in my bio to my LinkTree, where you can follow it to my YouTube channel, or look for Jazzleeillustrates on YouTube!
I've decided to make a sideblog purely for my Discord-loving nonsense (because I have to restrain the urge to reblog every Discord post I see, lol)! If you're interested in Discord and Fluttercord content and general pony content, check out @chaotic-kindness! I'll still post the majority of my art here anyhow.
I am slurping up this very good lore!! πππ
Would Baz, Toko and Gerdie prank each other for April Fool's day?? π
That's a great question! Unfortunately, it's one not so easily answered due to differences in how holidays are recognized in the Far From Home universe. Hundreds of alien races exist within FFH, each of which is associated with at least one culture and planet, though life is never quite that simple. So, to give an example, the U.S. federal government recognizes 11 holidays per year. Now multiply that by 195 countries on planet Earth - that gives Earth 2,145 different holidays in total (if we ignore the fact that some holidays overlap between countries). Sure, that's a bit of an overestimation, but if every single alien race demanded to celebrate 2,145 holidays over the course of a standard intergalactic year, practically every day would be considered a holiday. As a result, the Intergalactic Government only recognizes a select few generalized holidays during a standard intergalactic year, but individual cultures are welcome to celebrate specific holidays on their planets as usual. The system is flawed and gets a lot of flack (and rightly so), considering space government just doesn't want people taking days off of work unexpectedly and messing with the flow of trade and commerce. This means that many 'lesser' holidays (ie. ones that aren't federally recognized, such as April Fool's Day) remain generally unknown to most folks out in space, and having origins in wildly different cultures means that similarities between holidays are uncommon. So it's possible that the FFH crew wouldn't even be familiar with a holiday like April Fool's Day, if it happened to exist in that universe. But if we were to shove all that worldbuilding aside and, for the sake of this question, consider what might happen if the crew recognized April Fool's Day as a holiday? Theyβd absolutely prank each other.
I feel like Gerdie would be the most into it, starting with harmless pranks and introducing Toko to the concept, before they both start setting little traps for each other! And contrary to what you might think, Baz would participate too - though heβd be very subtle and methodical about it. Gotta put all those smuggling skills to good use, right? Baz and Gerdie would definitely be the best at sniffing out suspicious activity before a prank comes to fruition, whereas Toko (being so young) would fall for pranks all the time. But sheβd love the shenanigans!
Now that I introduced Witherspoon I can also share the art doll that I made of him last Summer! π I'm honestly so happy with the result of him. I want to make more art dolls soon.
PSA: @/toothpaste-dragon is one of the coolest people in the world. π
