I hereby declare from this moment forward that I will be posting one rat a day, whether it be my art, a reblog, or a random rat nose to boop, it shall be done.
Signed, Dumi the Dumbo Rat

To help promote both versions of Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter, THQ hosted a contest that would allow fans of the series to draw their own Hero design and submit it to be placed on a billboard (as long as the submitters were from the UK). Out of all the submissions, there were ten regional winners:
However, the simple sprites created in the Hero editor were not what was put onto the billboards. Instead, THQ hired an artist to create higher quality artwork to be hung instead, making them the only "Fan characters" to have official art from THQ.
All 10 of these winners were given copies of both versions of Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter and were invited to a premiere party, where their artwork was showcased:
A conversation earlier with a friend brought back some memories of one of my old fakemon, and his shiny Rotom pal / Pinky to his Brain.
His name's Devoker, and he's a mythical ghost/psychic Pokemon. He is a malevolent, uninvited resident of the Old Chateau, the infamous manor that sits mostly untouched (by the living, at least) in the Sinnoh region. To prevent myself from rambling too much, I'll put the rest of the info I remember about him in a list format loll:
-His ability is called "Spirakinesis," allowing him temporary control over any ghost types near him (think Marshadow from that one movie, but with just one type). His eyes and red fur-markings will glow purple when using it.
-His base moveset is Shadow Claw, Psychic, Wil o' Wisps, and Destiny Bond.
-His "crown" always floats above his head in preparation/during a move, and will stay there if using his ability.
-Since his paws are very stubby, he uses his ears to walk, stand, attack, etc.
-Like some legendaries, and some other mythical Pokemon, Devoker can speak to both humans and Pokemon alike. Though that doesn't mean he's very pleasant to talk to; this self-proclaimed "king of ghost-types" is rude, grumpy, and borderline insane at times.
-Made a sort of friend in the shiny Rotom that lives inside of the Old Chateau's broken TV, though it seems only interested in keeping him from causing too much damage than actual companionship with him (based off of the shiny Rotom that I encountered during my playthrough of Platinum when I was little... I ran out of Pokeballs. Yes my sib and I made this Rotom character to cope-)
-Enjoys burnt food and watching static, like a lunatic.
-Absolutely despises any form of music.
-He once fell in love with a Mawile that wandered into the manor at some point. Rotom got some hope during this period that his infatuation with her might compel him to change his act a bit (megamind style), but things didn't exactly turn out as planned. I'll leave it at that for now, maybe I'll write a story about it you never know.
-Bro came to me in a weird nightmare while I was playing Platinum. Old Chateau scared me a lot ngl.
BECOME RATICAL 🛹🔥

Rat kings are like the saddest mystery dude, poor little guys
Rat kings are phenomena said to arise when a number of rats become intertwined at their tails. Historically, there are various superstitions surrounding rat kings, and they were often seen as an extremely bad omen, particularly associated with plagues.
A small mock up I did a few days ago of what the starting area for my Steampunk Party would like like ^^ plus a few items that would be interactable(?) I can’t English
Tysm for the patience and assistance for this part ^^ it’s been fun to work on it ✨ hopefully from here I’m able to keep up more “consistent“ updates if I don’t burn out too often
Will note from here on I’ll be posting YouTube links for the music!!
Rookie? Are you alright? You look awful… no offense-
Sheesh- you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today, buddy?
*groan*
I haven’t slept at all…. Like… for 2 whole days I think…? I’ve lost track of time again…. And I have a really bad tummy ache….
Has it even been 2 days….? Or has it been 3…..
Have… either of you seen where Ma is….? I didn’t see her in her office…. I wanted to ask her something….
I’m afraid I haven’t quite yet myself, Rookie… what is it you wished to ask? Cause do note you were called into HQ today so it’s not likely you’ll be let off now that’s you’re already here… if that’s what you’re planning to do-
I- …. Ugh… ok I get it- I’ll just…. be in the lobby then…. Just please don’t send me out today…. Please…. I’m really nauseous….
No promises Rookie… you know I can’t take your word for that after having used that excuse many times already….
Oversleeping or under sleeping won’t be taken for excuse either that’s your own fault
I lost my EPF phone… I only knew I was called in because it was sent to my regular phone too…
*sigh* I’ll look into that later- I asked you to quit losing those so often- they’re not exactly cheap to replace
I know… I’m sorry, G- *sniff* I’ll… be in the lobby…
Ugh… everything’s spinning again…. I need to just go home….
Don’t ya think that was a little harsh of ya, G?? I mean he looked pretty sick to me-
I’m not risking another dumb prank from him today…. I’m already not in the best of moods…. Im anxious…. I feel like something will go wrong again this week I’m not taking chances-
Ugh you’re worrying way too much…. Just try to relax a little will ya, old man?
I’m not old…. I’ll try to calm down but I just… can’t do that right now….
Whatever ya say✨ I’ll be back in my studio working on my next costume, don’t stress yourself a bald spot while I’m gone *snicker*
Ugh… she’s just too optimistic about things…. She needs to try and be more serious about this-
Excuse me sir…. Urgent….
Hmm? Oh, Byte- what’s the issue?
No time to go into detail…. Case folder came in….
Case… folder…?
We can discuss later if you’re able to, sir- I must get back to my work….
W-what do you mean case folder-?? Byte-!
As if I couldn’t get more stressed…. What’s… this even about this time….? Please just be a missing jacket or something….
Well…. ‘Disappearing Act’ doesn’t sound too bad…. Maybe my guess is onto something?
What’s with this note… I don’t have to take something this silly to another room… what’s so bad about this that requires me to do so-
GHA-?!
Oh god-!! Holy shit…
No…no no… this… I-I’m just seeing things again… this has to be a joke right-???
*nervous laugh* yeah that’s it- this just a sick… twisted joke-
Gary? Is everything alright, dear?
YES-! *clears throat* y-yes ma’am everything is perfectly fine!
Wait…
Arctic-! I-I thought you were still busy-
I’m taking a small break from that… needed to get something to drink-
What do you have there, dear?
J-just the paper! Nothing to worry about ma’am- I promise-
Oh? Just the paper? Then let me see it if it’s one of my papers-
Shit… no no- it’s ok! It’s uh… one of Sam’s papers-
Gary….
Move… you’re testing my patience….
What’ve you been hiding from m-
Well that’s a new one- what’s dat alarm mean?
Nothing good….
A red alert…? Oh dear…. What could probably have happened this time- it’s not Herbert again right??
H-huh?! What’s a red alert mean-? What even happened!
I’m not sure but I don’t think we’ll have to wait long to figure it out…
*groan* oh cmon…. No noise please…. My headache…. Oh this is gonna make me even more sick….
Head spinning again….
Oh my- c-calm down everyone! It’ll be ok- please don’t go into a panic, mates- please-
Gulp no-! Don’t you even think about taking a bite out of the door!
Flare, it’s ok- just try to ignore it ok buddy? I know it hurts your little ears…
GHA! Blast no!! Stop that now-!
Oh cmon… I just got started…. Did G have a panic attack or something?
Whatwasthat?!?!
Red alert! All top agents report to the lobby this instant! Not a drill!
I just realized that I've never posted my own fancy rats on my tumblr before. Well here were the two beautiful little divas :3
I miss them dearly. They were one of the highlights of my childhood, and still hold a special place in my heart.
oh actually !! talking more abt the lesbian thing
"im in lesbian with my gf" is SO good and a lot of how i feel too. im bigender : guy + butch dyke and the butch dyke part is oftentimes only relevant when im in a relationship w a girl vc then its allnushy lesbian feelings and THATS my only real connection to womanhood
and ! interestingly ! i dunno if you also feel the same as anon (im so so sleepy, reading comprehension has gone slightly down) (wait fuck was it even an anon i cant check now) but i actually feel weirder calling myself sapphic than i do lesbian bc i feel like *sapphic* has more feminine inplications on my gender ! so im explicitly a lesbian but Not sapphic, bc w lesbian i feel a connect to butch history and such
anyways solidarity in um. transmasculinity and liking women in a queer way and also very comolicated feelings abt gender sexuality and labels. this is very rambly but i am Excited and Tired djdbdk
Hiiii hiiii to answer your initial ask: thank you for enjoying Princess AJ :33333 <3 "Shaking it around like a snowglobe" made me laugh.
I SOOOOO feel you, my lesbian label is truly one of my few connections to womanhood lol. My romantic feelings are so disgustingly mushy over-the-top lesbian nonsense. For a while I used lesbian as a sort of gender label as well and tbh that's still 20% accurate. Such an interesting label, I like when it's used or interpreted in such an abstract, all-encompassing way. The way I love is lesbian! Im in lesbian with my gf! I'm not a lesbian for the way I'm attracted to women, but just like... the way the attraction feels? The vibes??? Does that make any sense??? Probably not, I've had a headache all day lol I'm yapping nonsense. A million other lesbians who are much smarter than me have put this nuanced feeling into words much better than I ever could.
Mefeels that lesbian does have less of a feminine connotation just cause the relationship between gender and being a lesbian is sooo unique and interesting, no matter where you land on the gender specturm. I don't think I've ever used the sapphic label for myself... maybe I also associate it with a more "fem" energy. I don't call myself wlw either, I am a dogboything loving women lol.
Anywaaaays thank you for sharing!!! Love being able to discuss this sort of thing :3
Gary gave Darwin his hat for the St. Patricks Day event so he wouldn't get pinched
Here's the original image for context. He's so adorable I love this bean so much-
