i wanted to draw some scenes from my Beauty and the Beast AU!!
i absolutely had to draw the snowball fight between Stan and the kids, haha. the second image is of everyone sitting in front of the fireplace, and Ford (as the journal) is telling them a story, while Dipper reads it aloud for everyone. the third is the ballroom sequence, and i changed around some of the colors here to fit the characters better.
my favorite is Stan’s transformation into a human again. i was itching to draw that scene for a while, and i’m really happy with how it came out!!
my second favorite is Stan embracing Ford. Ford, since he was stuck as a Journal for so many years, can’t really walk or use his limbs all that well. so rather than trip and fall on his way to Stan, he waited for Stan to make his way up to him. and Stan is just so relieved that his brother is back that, in a show of raw emotion, he just ran and held Ford as tightly as he could, while Dipper and Mabel run over to join them
the final image is of everyone just celebrating the fact that the curse is finally lifted. Mabel and Dipper are getting formally introduced to Ford (which is why they’re holding his hand), and Stan is helping hold Ford up to keep him from falling over
(Wendy’s design is by @cirilee and Soos’ design is by @soupery!!)
You secretly have the ability to use other people’s senses. You’re walking down the sidewalk when you see a girl wearing earbuds and you decide to find out what she’s listening to. All you hear is a voice say “they see you. Abort mission”.
Ben Carson is such a great example of how the concept of raw intelligence doesn’t exist, and that people can have wildly varying types of intelligence. This man is the best brain surgeon in America. Possibly the world. He invented a new way to treat seizures. He separated conjoined twins in a surgery that everyone else said was impossible. And he thinks going to prison makes you gay. He thinks the pyramids were grain silos built by the biblical Joseph.
So maybe you suck at something because in one area you’re Ben Carson The Politician but in another area you might be Ben Carson The Neurosurgeon.
this is tremendously inspiring and utterly horrifying at the same time
I see a lot of posts about people feeling embarrassed, like, about everything, all the time, being embarrassed is I guess a huge part of some people’s lives. well listen
my girlfriend left her shoes in the middle of the living room floor, so I hid them in the oven drawer. because I thought it was a drawer that you could like–store things in?? I don’t know, I somehow made it to this point in my life without knowing that the fire happens in there. then I forgot I’d done it, and like, two days went by.
so the next time we went to make dinner, the shoes caught on fire.
then the oven caught on fire
then our whole house was full of black smoke
then the NYC firefighters had to come out to our apartment. there were like six of them.
half the people in our building came out of their apartments to find out what was going on, and if they were going to die or if they needed to evacuate their cats or something
and then an actual, New-York’s-finest firefighter looked me wearily in the eyes and said “try not to keep shoes in your oven” as he left.
and now we need a new oven.
and I would say that I felt…mild embarrassment? I experienced a patina of chagrin. “whoops,” I thought to myself, as the firefighters tromped off and the firetruck drove off into the night. “I should probably have known that about oven drawers.” then I bought my girlfriend a new pair of shoes, since I’d burned her old shoes. then we ordered a pizza.
if I can not feel embarrassed about that, I hope you guys can take heart.
Serious question: What is an oven drawer?
I mean come on, it just looks like a drawer, right
Isn’t that where the pots and pans go?
I definitely remember pots and pans getting stored in the drawer of the oven we had when I was growing up. so I figured, okay, that’s a drawer for putting stuff in. key detail I guess: pots and pans are fireproof
unlike shoes
GUYS
THAT’S THE FUCKING BROILER
OH MY GOD
Not always the broiler actually. Sometimes it is just a drawer. My aunt keeps snack foods in there (Oreos, Cheetos, the shit she doesn’t want people to know she eats) and her oven has never caught on fire.
So this is handy information for me to start inspecting the oven of every place I ever move into from now until eternity.
fair enough but i feel like if shoes go in and fire comes out it’s probably the broiler
Oh thank god it’s sometimes a drawer. I thought I had a broiler for years and never used it.
So there’s a compartment that SOMETIMES is extra storage and SOMETIMES is full of fire?
Yep, basically.
I didn’t realize it wasn’t a drawr until I burned my hand on a cast iron that I needed because I was doing a lot of cooking and the oven was on and I needed the cast iron
