I really appreciate this TikToker with Tourette syndrome, Shay, for taking the time to educate so many of us (including me) about her disability and coprolalia in light of what happened at the BAFTAs with John Davidson when Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo were on stage. I learned a lot.

However you spend this time of year, just be sure not to let any gnomes inside your house

We all know Clarke's "sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" Well we have corollary:

Day 31: (After) Moonlight, Radiant I wasn’t sure how to work “after” into something that felt right so my final set of alt prompts were for my final day and I think it might be a ghost ship. Perfect for spooking. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 30: Hair A gas giant dreaming she might one day be an ocean. #drawtober #drawtober2026 #AmSDraws

Day 29: Clock It’s a Hippoclockomus. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 28:(Song) Horns/Serpent Was struggling with “Song so looked for alt prompts and ended up with horns and serpent and I kinda like ‘em #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 27: Abyss I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 26: Weather More pleasant than that I am currently experiencing #drawtober #drawtober2025 #

Day 25: Drink. Bottoms up… #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 24: Flight Sometimes colours really do not want to cooperate #drawtober #drawtober2025 #amsdraws

Day 23: Alone: when living by yourself in a tower and having long hair is a choice and fucking princes won’t stop trying to rescue you. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 22: Growth No idea if they’re poisonous or not. Gotta just try one I guess. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 21: Light No explanation for this one, moth pulled from nothing towards the light perhaps. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 20: Fears. Now look. I’m a TMA bitch. I couldn’t not. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws #TMA #eye #web #buried #dark #lonely #spiral

Day 19: Forest This one was quite speedy due to time constraints but the vibe is there! #drawtober2025 #drawtober #AmSdraws

Day 18: recipe Bread! Bread! Bread! Bread! Bread! #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 17: Sign I have fun. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 16: (War) Stitches I didn’t want to draw war but this has at least a tenuous link to an alt prompt of Stitches #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 15: Again I wonder what they’ll do with the other six lives? #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 14: Note (Witch). Struggled so hard for something original on Note so went searching for other prompts to find Witch. She’s whistling while she works. #drawtobet #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 13: Devotion What kind of devotion is it that a burning match offers a candle? #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 12: Comfort. Spiced apple juice is the ultimate comfort for me in autumn. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 12: Beast He brings destruction! Adorably! #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 11: Cold They don’t *need* the scarf but they *like* the scarf. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 9: Siblings These two to me are quintessential cat shapes enhanced into two of my friend’s boys. Their dynamic is exactly this. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws (I included the preliminary sketch as I love it almost as much as the final piece)

Day 8: Dance. Something about the motion was more important than the definition on this one and I’m allowing myself to let it be that. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 7: Rot. Somehow a rotten blank page is worse than the loss of words. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 6: Phantom. Sometimes you just start drawing and it turns into pomegranate. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 5: Bold (Machine). My first thought was brightly coloured kiss marks, then I spent four hours drawing a robot #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 4: was Regret but wasn’t feeling it so I went with Marshmallow/Impale #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 3: Echo. There are mountains in my bed where your body once lay and your echo is the crumpled sheet that pushed aside when you left it. Just like the mountains echo with the shift of the earth; my sheets echo with the reminder of your body. #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSDraws

Day 2: Stranger No one will be surprised by this one. Nikola just kicked down the door in my brain the moment I read the prompt #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws #themagnusarchives #tma

Forgot to post here! Drawtober is upon us and so: drawing. Day 1: Dream #drawtober #drawtober2025 #AmSdraws

Day 21 of #draweverythingjune2025 by @adorkastock.com and I made it! Really happy with this one, even if he shouldn’t really have wings. They went on holiday and Wilde tried new things. Zolf is very anxious. Wilde is real pretty though. #amsdraws #rqg #rqgwilde

Day 20 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and I finished with Zolf! This month has been a real challenge but it’s really been satisfying to feel my way through! #amsdraws #zolfsmith #rqg

Day 19 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune and OOF I felt this one. I went with Grizzop and Vesseek’s clutch, pleased with the relative re-sizing even if I have gone a bit Michelangelo with small grown adult children #amsdraws #rqg #rustyquillgaming

Day 18 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and we return to Wilde reading the letter from Sasha and his sad stern demeanour in the 18m gap. #amsdraws #rqg #rqgaming #rqgwilde

Day 17 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and we have more goblins! Because there should always be more goblins. Grizzop and Vesseek (left) made friends #amsdraws #rqg #rqgaming #vesseek #rqggrizzop #grizzop

Day 16 of @adorkastock.com’s #Draweverythingjune2025 and we’re in the final stretch. I’m not a big fan of guns so this OC tried using a crossbow instead but I’m trying not to focus on how that part turned out 😅 #amsdraws

Day 15 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and this one screeeeeamed Sasha to me. It was also just so easy to get the flow of it. Maybe I’m getting better? #amsdraws #sasharackett #rqg #rqgaming

Day 14 of #draweverythingjune2025 with @adorkastock.com and the pose screamed Alphonse Mucha so: drapery. I know switching the scythe direction is silly but the *composition* #death #ladydeath #amsdraws

Day 13 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and this one called out to me as Alice and the Queen of Hearts. Couldn’t tell you exactly why, but I am deeply pleased - also grateful to @snakewife.bsky.social for her encouragement throughout #amsdraws #aliceinwonderland #queenofhearts

Day 12 of #draweverythingjune2025 for @adorkastock.com and the obvious axe choice for me was Azu but then I had what I believe is an objectively funny idea. Jon really isn’t sure about the axe gambit. #amsdraws #tma #themagnusarchives #jonsims #thearchivist

Day 11 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and I even attempted the background. Miracles do happen. I’m sure gable is having a normal one. #amsdraws #gableskyjacks #skyjacks

A slight delay for day 10 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 but here we have a tired father separating chaos children. He loves them. No really. #RQGGrizzop #Grizzopdrikachtamsterdam #rqg #rqgaming #amsdraws

I've been out and mostly away from my tablet this week, and with v little chance to draw using physical media so I'm a bit behind on #draweverythingjune2025- BUT. @amstrange.bsky.social and I are still in it, so let's do a quick catch-up round!

Realised I messed up my days and we are now on day 9 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and oof relative size is hard! Have a Sasha being menaced by LaGourmande #amsdraws #rqg #rqgaming #sasharackett

Day 7 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and the pose was absolutely giving Gideon Nav. I’m posting two pics this time because I want credit for the toes even though I covered them up. #tlt #gideontheninth #gideonnav #amsdraws (odd warp on the toe sketch is due to the angle of the photo)

Day 6 of @adorkastock.com’s #draweverythingjune2025 and the Reverend Daughter Harrowhark Nonagesimus could really do with wearing a colour that makes her easier to sketch #amsdraws #tlt #harrowharknonagesimus #harrow
