so i can only watch how my accessibility tool (communication through art) is being denied to me because i can't comply with someone else's clearly more favored accessibility tool of alt text and it blows

that's my biggest issue with alt text pushing as a partially mute person who draws specifically to express themself *nonverbally* - my handicap is literally being limited in language so i can't fully participate in the conversation or advocate for myself or like ask ppl to at least mention #alt4me

define "matter"

(they say, as they're hunched over a drawing almost on the verge of tears trying to understand why the cheekbones aren't cheekboning anatomically)

so yeah fingers crossed it does its magic or else

gonna have an appointment in 2 days and i'm pretty sure i'm being put on big boy antidepressants bc they're supposed to help with the chronic-ness of things, how the pain just doesn't stop when it should
but i'm lowkey looking forward to it for the depression itself because man. am at my wit's end

hehe thank you! :з

she waited patiently until i finish my thing and only climbed up when i was obviously free to cuddle 10/10 perfect manners
(unlike her brother that gets behind the monitor and bites my fingers because they're hitting the keyboard shortcuts too playfully for him to resist 💀)

also uh i draw to express myself without words
so like
don't make me put words to my deliberately wordless form of self-expression :)))))

ye wrio is def easier to draw than neuvillette (or im just biased because he's, like, only the bestest character in the history of video games pffft)

switching gears to Wriothesley 🐺 oh he smug

yes okay good yes

good thing i still enjoy the physical motion of drawing even if the result makes me want to punch the monitor, and somewhere in the back of my mind i still remember that i'm just rusty and with enough practice it'll start looking good again

like i love when he's portrayed more masculinely like those victorian vampire nobles n stuff, with proper bone structure in the face you know
but i also love his in-game model with chubby cheeks
and idk how to find the balance between the two

anyway here's a neuvillette face practice, tragically denosed
i so struggle to capture how i see him in my head it's dire and i'm on my knees crying rn
