Thank ya so much for drawing Loopsy @smug-aura, I feel like they’ed get along fine enough. At least long enough for a small tea party.

Also I love Minnow, so much. She’s like a lil muppet, a lil scrunglo scrimblo.

“Men, it's been a long war. It's been a tough war. You've fought bravely, proudly for your country. You're a special group. You've found in one another a bond that exists only in combat, among brothers. You've shared foxholes, held each other in dire moments. You've seen death and suffered together. I'm proud to have served with each and every one of you. You all deserve long and happy lives in peace.”

The Final Scores are in!

Why does drawing require effort, I should be able to open my skull like a jar, take my brain out, and throw it onto the wall and boom, a doodle

ah. oh dear. who did that (bonus under readmore)

DeviantArt Points

I absolutely HATE sites where you need to wait several hours to receive your paid goods. First what'a coming in my mind with such situations are suspicious websites that just waits for people to bait them and stole their money.

I can't believe that, but the same situation happened to me today, while buying DeviantArt points. I opened new DA account to pay someone for custom design. I of course had DA acc, but many many years ago and I couldn't remember my old password and nickname. After new theme and wave of AI "artists" I left that completely trashy website.

Okay, so I opened new account, paid for points and the transaction was successful. My bank charged the money, I received file with confirmation of bank transfer, but my DA still shows zero points. I can't describe how mad I'm right now.

What happened that one of my favorite websites turned into dying, scammer piece of sh!t.

I started reading about similar problems and guess what, It happened to other people too xD

I contacted DA support, but of course finding my open tickets on their website is hell for me and I can't find this section :')

I might delete it when the problem will be solved or keep it (and eventually edit/reblog) we will see.

I can't describe my anger, by their low quality services. When I'm buying something, I want to receive it now. I understand that sometimes regular bank transfer between accounts may take a few days, but I had absolutely zero informations about that while purchasing points.

And I'm curious one thing — while buying games, shopping online or sending money via PayPal, everything works fine and between purchase and receive are mere seconds. So why DA takes so long xD

Oh god, it's the next reason to hate modern DeviantArt

EDIT 1: 24h passed, still no points. I wrote another email to their customer/user help

I need to figure out how to draw Hank 😭😭 my headcanon for them is that they were a Sleepwalker and somehow managed to get separated from the Nexus stuff, and that because they were a Sleepwalker, it’s the cause of all their combat skills and why they just randomly started killing in the first episode, and also the general violence… and then maybe that led to a faction of Nexus Core becoming the AAHW (also a headcanon that the two groups were affiliated at some point if not from the same original group and later divided) to take Hank down because they are watching the consequences of their actions via Hank. I’m very tired and in a time cramp so this isn’t very cohesive but Imve been thinking of this headcanon for years
