I'll tag folks in reply, but thank you for tagging me, Rey!!
Digital art of a man in purple, blue and pink tones. He looks barley composed in anger or sadness, pulling at someone's shirt from off screen while bubbles escape his nose. Hands in pink tones are pulling at his head, as if to stop this progress. The original theater poster for Carrie but replaced with my dog, Junior. The text reads IF YOU'VE GOT A TASTE FOR BARKING... TAKE JUNIOR TO THE PROM. "JUNIOR" if only they knew she had huge lungs... Kurama from Yu Yu Hakusho as a child, eating his already dead self in chosing to live as Shuuichi Minamino for his mother a doggy holds two tenniss balls for you to pick from, one is silver and one is gold...which did you drop?

I now have comms open to save up for a work laptop!! My current one is so old and slow it impedes my daily communication and work/drawing time significantly. Been borrowing spouse's laptop a few days a week to draw, lately

Here are some doodles I did for myself about said unfinished fic, hehe
doodle of urameshi yuusuke being provided hrt by yomi in exchange for hanging out with shura: who is a bug nerd. shura is showing yuusuke a baby-face worm and explaining it, while yuusuke looks on and thinks 'he's a little nerd' doodle of kuwabara kazuma being disgusted by urameshi yuusuke beinging a screaming 'baby-face worm' that turns intoa a baby-face moth ( exactly what it sounds like ) doodle of Yomi sitting down after a lond day in his specialized recliner. shura appears in the doorframe holding a large bug while Yomi cuts him off with "Shura, daddy is trying to sleep. Go show Yorda." doodle of shura showing urameshi yuusuke a parasitic wasp infested huge caterpillar while yuusuke suggests shura just study bugs instead of rule, and shura is like wow why havent i thought o that
