i imagine if you were in MLP you would be the fifth Pie sibling, a sort of blonde sad bimbo baby sister
ahaha..! this is very cute~.. its hard to imagine, inserting myself into the family like that. it would be a fun concept to play with, but i think, im much more usually a sucker for projecting onto pre-existing characters, and just imposing whatever traits and dynamics i find to be appealing onto them. i like your idea, though ^^
do you go by pinkamena? :3
mm.. i honestly, pick names at random when giving myself a name online. sort of like switching around pronouns. ive never been referred to as pinkamena (that i know of) but i have been referred to as pinkie... clowns.. and mikey, of course. i see mikey equal to pinkie, as i see my full first name michaelene equal to pinkamena, respectively. it really doesnt matter, whatever i have written. i like people refer to me as whatever they'd have the most fun with !
Your dream blunt rotation...?
toriel from undertale and fluttershy. those were very instinctual answers and i'm having a hard time thinking of a third one but you get the picture. i used to smoke all the time but now i get on/off scared of weed usage because of bad drug experiences/generally being a fritzy easily paranoid person. id prefer to smoke around like... xD older nurturing people i can trust who have been doing it for much longer than me, sweet fluffy animal women.
Did you ever read Tails Gets Trolled?
/genq
haha... i read some of it a couple years back, yeah. i had a good time with it, it made me laugh a lot. the dialogue style is a delight, very silly. really impressed by big absurd projects like that, more commitment than i could ever imagine
i asked your partner about this but i'm curious about you too! anything you desire to draw and just haven't gotten around to?
er.. lots of things, probably. i have to prioritize commissions and the quality of them a lot of time so i mostly make personal art in-between that. it ends up usually being very purposeful and specific what i decide to draw for myself, an itch that needs to be scratched, representative of how i feel within that timeframe. this is to say, drawing ideas can "time out" if i no longer feel inclined to depict them anymore.
i can imagine a really specific idea in my head for multiple days, that i will intend to make, and i can either do it or i will not do it because i forget or would rather make something else/find it no longer applicable. i think i've been lately actually, really been wanting to draw more ship art, personal headcanons, intense lesbian art.. hah, just like, sex art i can more emotionally relate to as well. things i can.. get excited about. i can easily get depressed over art. i also don't like writing down personal drawing ideas cuz .. i have a problem/neuroticism with lists, where, it'll feel like a forceful command, and then i will only want to complete anything written as obligation. so i try to keep lists to chores and responsibilities rather than anything recreational.
favorite piece of art of yours?
hum.. thats tough! i make a LOT of art. it'll usually be something recent/my answer would change at any given time. i can't really pick a /favorite/ but, here's some recents i'm pretty fond of. using inkbunny links for higher quality so.. you may have to log in or create an account to view the nsfw ones..

Hello! I have a question, but how do you feel about people taking inspiration from your art? I'm only asking this because I used to trace your art like a nerd but I grew up and stopped. Your art is fascinating and I enjoy it.
hey, thanks for the compliment! and yes.. that's perfectly fine. i think, in the past, i used to get really upset by it. but i was mostly fishing for negativity, and i had a lot of self hatred both in general and with my art. so it felt like people trying to draw in my style felt more like.. some kind of dig and clout chase, than, genuine admiration, obviously most of it was in my head and i saw bitter intentions in most things.
nowadays, ah.. it makes me happy. im even fine with my drawings being traced if theyre kept personal or credited. inspiration obviously doesnt need to be credited, and if i spot it.. its really cool to see :)
and there is any good you dont like? Or something that u dont like to Cook like something hard to do..
hmm.. i don't like, spicy food? xD, and like... beans (sometimes) peas and brussel sprouts.. i can only think of really specific things like that ingredients wise but its usually more about the flavor palette of a dish/how it feels to eat. like, typical things, like not really liking food thats bland, watery, or overly greasy. something being flavorly or texturally different, than, my preferences feel like it should xD i rarely blame the ingredients themselves unless theyre like, shit ingredients? like spoiled or.. fake.
i don't like cooking meat, really.. it can definitely be fun and rewarding but i get like, embarassed about how loud and fragrant it is because i live with people who i dont cook for and i dont like it being commented on. i also get paranoid about cross contamination a lot and it feels like i'll just be spending most of my time washing my hands in-between every little step. so i guess that's mostly, an anxiety thing. i guess also.. making rice is hard xD its hard to get it exactly right and i feel like i have to constantly babysit it so it doesn't boil over. hope this answers well enough!
hey! just wanted to let you know that you’ve been a huge inspiration for me for a long time now and you’re art helped encourage me to be more expressive with my own work so thank you for that! and I hope you’re doing well ^w^
that is great to hear! people having fun with their own art and being able to express themselves however they want is fundamentally one of the most important things to me. i've feared my art coming across as shallow jerk-bait, so getting affirmation that so many people really are able to derive a message about expression from it is really dear to me. keep making art forever! i am doing okay, thank you for the kind words.
what is your favorit meal? do You like cooking?
ah..! yes.. i like cooking. sometimes, having to do it so often for financial and nutritional reasons, can get really tiresome and i can easily lose some of that love out of obligation. but, yes, in my heart it's something i really enjoy doing. my favorite meals are usually pastas.. seafood, chicken. hearty and well flavored big dinners. steaming platters of love! i have a really specific palette with cooking, lots of light meats and grains.. veggies, i use garlic powder and paprika a lot. i can branch out though, baking a cake was fun! and i recently made beef pot roast and it turned out amazing, i don't normally interact with big meats so succesfully getting a whole chuckroast super tender in the oven was very rewarding and exciting. i have a signature... mushroom pasta! i've served it to many people and they all love it, even people who dont like mushrooms. i make the sauce myself with onions, garlic, mushrooms, and cream, and lots of spices and layers. ah .. ^_^
i also have a soft spot for processed food, hah. i really enjoy fast food like mcdonald's, chick-fil-a and panera bread, and i really like bologna, hotdogs, lunchables, and boxed mac & cheese. i'm a motherfucker addicted to meat, cheese, and carbs!!!
I’ve been meaning to mention it so I’m happy I get a chance to now. Back when you first started posting shitverse I made a similar story of my own, with a similar idea and that really impacted my life and helped me grow and change as a person a lot. It’s crazy when you make the worst version of yourself and then it ends up being your baby. Anyway, im very glad you posted it and your a big inspiration. I hope your day is filled with whimsy
yea! man, that really was the original intention of shitverse, to sort-of, really let all the evil out. it started off really two-dimensional and on the nose. hell, i literally named michael off of myself and i had intentioned his first design to be "a cis male version of myself." you start to fall in love with it though, giving them dynamics with each other and very human attributes, in a way, affirming your own evil, giving it a space to be creative and explicit. shitverse is very much still real, just very private between me and darcy. i was thinking about posting some of my more recent sketches pertaining to it though .. :)
very happy to have inspired, it's cathartic, isn't it?
We are only really Casual mutuals, but seeing your work and personality is always inspiring to me. A couple years ago, when I worried too much about my image, many of your posts and arts made me more open to all new types of expression. I feel regret for allowing people to be cruel about you and blocking you out of intimidation back then. These days I try to be okay with being myself, and I attribute some of that new attitude to you. So, thank you for being cool , and for making good art :)
being okay with yourself is an extremely difficult thing to do. it took me years of practice and i still have to maintain it on a daily basis all the time. make sure to give most of the credit to yourself, it takes a lot of willpower to get past shame. thank you for the compliments
whenever i have artblock i look at ur art and it instantly inspires me thank u so much for sharing ur work
this is great to hear !!! i am glad i could help :)
youve always been one of my biggest inspirations and your attitude towards love and life always makes me happy. ave satanas as well! >_< i hope u have a good day today my friend .
ave satanas! this message is very sweet! i get equally nervous as i do grateful to inspire so many people, mostly, if i can make someome happy even if i'm not directly interacting with them, that's what i value the most. i really don't like being cynical- i have bad depression, but i don't like hiding my feelings either, so i've spent a long time figuring out how to balance expressing myself online in what i feel to be an authentic but purposeful way. i obviously, mostly do this through art. i hope something makes you happy today!
you are a bit of a butch lesbo housewife heehee
it's true! when i'm not drawing/playing video games/fucking around, i cook and clean often because i spend almost all my time at home while my sis is the one with an outside job. i really enjoy being of service to them and being rewarded and praised for it, and it likes the same thing! i don't really think i can fall on butch or fem but i saw your second message replacing the word butch with dyke, which is the most accurate! haha
