Evolution Of The Jikook Slaying Armys

ethel's cheer team @mothercain

not quite sure if its cannon whether or not ethel cain (the character) was a cheerleader but I love the uniform hayden wears in the American teenager mv and wanted to draw her in a theoretical late 80s American small town cheer squad. Maybe this counts as an au, not quite sure. as a non-american, cheerleading has always felt very alien to me. the idea that you guys actually have girls who jump around with pom poms before football games is very sweet. very highly based on this photo posted by Kimberly booth. no, I don't know her, I just found it on Pinterest and thought the faded-film vibe fit my vision lol

When Life Gives You Tangerines

This drama is so unique in it's storytelling. I'm watching it with my mom and I told her that I love how the pacing isn't in any order whatsoever. It feels natural, almost like being told by memory. And memories aren't always in chronological order.

It reminds me of sitting with my grandma in the garden, asking her stories about her childhood, starting from when she was a little girl to when she had my mom and my uncles, to her own siblings, then to her marriage. It leaves me with the same fluttery feelings, all warm and joyful. Yet the drama also offers so many perspective about life, about how people become when they grow up. As kids, we had big dreams and even bigger ambitions, but then as adults, we just try to do our best. Sometimes we fail but we try to make do and give ourselves a little bit of grace. Because this is our first life, everything is a first time.

The episodes just wreck me every. single. time. I don't think there's ever been an episode where I didn't cry. So many of it is just being grateful to my parents. I know I'm luckier than most, and I know that sometimes I'm a brat who doesn't appreciate it enough. But I know that nobody else would love me as much as they do and no amount of gratitude would ever surpass everything they did for me. Oh my God this is turning out to be so sappy. But I think that's exactly what the drama wants us to realize, that life goes on and always goes on. Don't have too many regrets. Tell your parents you love them. Find a partner who would treat you right, who would be your ally and your friend, someone you'd want by your side even if the whole world comes crashing down. And love yourself deeply(!!). When you do all this, everything just follows.

Needless to say I love this drama. I believe it's one of those that'll stick with me for a very long time.

I always need to do this kind of messy sketches to familiarize myself with new characters (the word dump is especially important!)

you can see how much fun i had doodling these lmao

Something else about Sinners (yeah I’m never gonna shut up about this) is the way black people and vampires are portrayed as sharing similar lifestyles. This is really emphasized when Pearline sings Pale Pale Moon. The lyrics talks about black people working all day in the Jim Crow South and the only time they have a semblance of freedom is under moonlight. Pearline even says that she doesn’t want the sun to shine and she doesn’t care if it never shines again because under the pale moon they can sing and they’re free!!!!

my personal design of ethel!!! she is a country bumpkin and we love her @mothercain

This film will forever break my heart. One of the best hitman and the child bits ever.

“Who the fuck are you?  Why did you come all the way here for her?” “I’m her next-door neighbor.”

We all need a Na Yuyeon

Nah gurl......if my man ain't like Yuyeon Na, I don't want him

BTS analysing the theories

Namjoon: Well it's pretty well rounded and it has a good layout.

Taehyung: But why am I the bad guy??!

Yoongi: It's just symbolism.

Taehyung: What's symbolism? And I'm not a bad person.

Jungkook: Shut up you got to play with a dog.

Now that would've made an interesting musical number
