Logged into social media to see what my friends are up to. See two dozen screenshots or just photos of peoples' PC monitors as they download Silksong.
a textless screenshot of the meme from Arrested Development when this man looks into a paper bag labeled "Dead dove" and, once he finds said dead dove, looks up and says "I don't know what I expected"

In the game #DateEverything you can turn your nice coffee maker into Kopi, a friendly barista who's passionate about coffee and loves to share fun facts and history about it. But that's a NICE coffee maker. So I thought to myself, what if the main character owned a Keurig instead?
a bored barista named Curie designed as a gijinka for a Keurig coffee machine - she's looking at her phone while handing you your to-go cup and saying "What's 'in it'? Ugh, how should I know"

an edited screenshot from the Avatar: The Last Airbender animated show, where a character says "there is no war in Ba Sing Se" but edited with US Attorney General Pam Bondi's face on her and the text changed to "there is no Epstein client list"

art I made that took a couple weeks, based on my toddler niece misunderstanding my brother explaining the sun's gravity and wanting to swim in the sun's "gravitational pool"
art set in colorful star-filled outer space, where waves of what looks like rainbow water fills the air and a variety of people are swimming towards the sun where the waves are headed

been playing #SWTOR again and decided this is now my precious baby. Casima Vass - she is a totally-rebuilt cyborg #jedi whose chronic pain is managed via the Force. and your honor, i LOVE her 😭
my Star Wars character Casima, a pale woman with a long white braid, scars covering her body with vaguely-glowing cybernetic white eyes. she's drawn three times, one time a full body drawing with her double-bladed pink lightsaber and black outfit as she uses some force abilities, second drawing is simply a shoulder-up look at her face, and the third shows her bare back with her shirt lowered and hair loose, her spinal scarring on full display as she explains "Most the upgrades were internal..."

My dragon sorcerer Rowena, drawn for... absolutely no reason except vibes and the initial idea of needing special lotion for dragon scales
A dark curly-haired woman is wet from the bath, sitting on a wicker chair with her skirt draped over it. Her hair and body are wrapped by towels as she holds a lotion container with one hand and applies lotion to the dragon scales on her knees with the other. She has other scales on her hips, shoulders, and forehead. The bathroom is steamy and filled with sunlight, wooden walls and tiled floors, with plants decorating the corners

this was worth an 8 minute break from the game actually, 10/10 feature #bg3
a screenshot from Baldur's Gate 3 taken using photomode. the shot is of the owlbear cub at the old temple with fireworks behind him, with special effects added by photomode, so we've got a slight glowing effect, star stickers around him, and a crown sticker on his head

i didn't HAVE to draw dramatic art for a backstory for my Starfinder character, like... this didnt HAVE to happen. buuut i had fun ANYWAY so
This is a POV shot, where you're a presumed mercenary who's broken into this scifi apartment, but things haven't gone well for you. You're on the ground looking up as a pale woman with glowing antennae stands above you, dressed for sleep and covered in blood, holding out an electrified knife. This woman's apartment is in shambles behind her - her bed, mirror, walls, cabinets are in various states of broken and bloodied from the fight. A large round window shows a rainy night in a city with two moons in the sky. The woman is speaking as she walks, "shouldn't have woken me up..."

My fancypants aasimar divine soul sorcerer, Sohra, enjoying some midday tea outside
This is a beige-shaded drawing I've done of a fancy young woman with long light hair pouring herself some tea while she slightly smiles down on a butterfly that's landed on her wrist. It's implied she's seated outdoors with some simple background details of her lace-covered table and some leaves behind her, light shining through them. the art is done on Clip Studio Paint but purposefully made to look more traditional and sketch-like with papery textures and colors

this D&D eladrin ranger is just directly based on the scout I'm playing in Avowed rn
An elven woman sits in a tree illuminated through the leaves by sunlight. She has medium blonde hair in a messy bun, in tone not too different from her tanned and freckled skin, a light scar over her lips. Her amber eyes are looking offscreen as she reaches to take an arrow from the quiver on her back, her bow gripped in her other hand. She's dressed in browns and grays with a bit of red accents, leathers fit for a ranger. Her most unique quality however are the small tree branches growing out of her head like a crown of horns, small autumn leaves growing from each of them.

Playing a #DnD one shot tonight, trying out a shifter barbarian named Yama because tall muscled cat lady sounded bitchin'
Character art of a tall well-muscled female barbarian with cat-like ears and tail and spots that match her short hair. In one side of the art it's a full body shot with her and her sword, a daring grin on her face. In the other it's a half-body shot with her simply holding her water canteen, a much more playful smile on her scarred face

i have been playing #Avowed and i love my little scholarly nerd girl Chryss
My Avowed character, the godlike Chryss, an elven woman with purple eyes, wavy purple-black hair to her upper back, and large colorful mushrooms forming a sort of crown on her head. her eyebrows are also colorful fungus, and I draw her in three poses. The first, she's happily reading a book and rambling about it in scribbly speech bubbles with no actual visible words. the second drawing is just a face shot with her smiling, and in the last I drew a full-body one of her gripping a spellbook to her side in one hand, fighting with a wand in the other. she's a bit bruised and bloodied but determined to keep fighting

Got some calming treats for Shayera to see if they can help her anxiety. Only gave her three, as that's about as much as the instructions said she should have. After closing the container and not giving her any more treats, I would NOT describe her demeanor as "calm"
Photo of my adorable tortie cat Shayera, her lil tiny baby face is alert and eyeing my non-photo-taking hand (offscreen) as she hopes said hand is about to open that damn treat jar again

Neve no, how could you #NeveGallus #LucanisDellamorte #DragonAge #DragonAgeVeilguard
Neve Gallus of Dragon Age Veilguard fame is cooking, whistling a tune as she snaps a fistful of spaghetti noodles in half, HORRIFYING Lucanis Dellamorte behind her as he and his demon Spite both make desperate Italian hand gestures at her

I've been on an obsessive #BG3 #Shae'zel (IDK if that's the ship name I just like saying it) kick lately. I did a #Shadowheart playthrough just to romance #Lae'zel only to finish it and IMMEDIATELY start a Lae'zel playthrough to kiss Shadowheart so this is just who I am rn
A four-part little art series on one page of Shadowheart and Lae'zel from Baldur's Gate 3 as a progressing couple. One shot of them kissing, one of them cuddling in front of fire with the githyanki egg, one of Lae'zel holding the githyanki baby in a chest sling as she says "With this contraption, we shall be able to bring Xan into battle with us" as an incredulous arms-crossed Shadowheart replies with a flat "Lae'zel" - in the last piece, a smiling Shadowheart is holding a giggling slightly-older baby Xan as Lae'zel playfull bites on his shirt, saying "Grrrr!!, the mighty Xan shall fall to my fangs!"
