I decided to change the style of art a little. I wanted to work with liners and colors, as I have not used them for a long time, I like the result, and you? <3

Summary: Khunbam pillowtalk
It was late and Bam was in bed, snuggled into Khun’s side. He felt safe and warm—but unfortunately wide awake.
“Khun-ssi?”
Khun hummed, half-asleep as Bam traced a finger up and down his chest. The soft fabric felt nice.
“What’s it like to fall in love?”
Khun’s eyes fluttered open, and he blinked at the ceiling.
“I don’t know, Bam.” Khun answered, voice slurred with sleep. “You just realize it after you’ve fallen in love.”
Bam was quiet for a moment. He pressed his palm against Khun’s chest to feel his heartbeat.
“So you’ve been in love before?”
Bam felt Khun’s heart rate pick up.
Khun let out a sigh and turned his head away. “Yeah. Many times.”
“Oh…” Something twisted in Bam’s gut, sour and unpleasant. He withdrew his hand and tucked it against his own chest.
Khun turned his head again, and this time, their eyes met. The corner of Khun’s mouth quirked up.
“When I first met you. When I got you back. When I woke up from my coma.” He let out a quick chuckle. “Anytime I look at you… I feel my heart sing its praises for being able to be by your side.”
Bam tucked his head under Khun’s chin, hiding the big smile on his face as he wrapped his arms around Khun’s torso. “You’re too much…”
Khun snickered and closed his eyes again. “You asked.”
Khun's absence was not easy. Bam's gaze would return to the empty seat beside him each time, the one stubbornly reserved for his sleeping best friend. It was force of habit by then. He would try to imagine what Khun would look like seated there, remember his voice and face and sly demeanor, the memory eventually becoming a blurred spectre of blue staring him in the eye and plunging a knife through his chest.
Soon he'd forgotten what Khun sounded like, and then he thought, that's it - he's forgetting him, and there's nothing he can do about it.
He forced himself to look forward, and the seat sat empty in the edges of his vision.
When Khun awoke, returned to him warm and smiling, he drank in his image, sated his longing in the marine of his irises and nearly drowned when his hand rose to brush fingertips across his face -
"Your hair... It's gotten quite long."
Khun didn't need to know it was meant to match his, time spent imagining him in the reflection of mirrors in his place; it's a ridiculous thing to admit –
"Yeah. It's not as long as I'd like it, yet."
"Are you well?"
Bam looked at him. Was he well?
Yeah. Yes. He breathed, one of Khun's colognes wafting pleasant in the air, upending nostalgia into his heart, a breath of winter's air–
"With you here," he responded, unable to stop himself.
Khun smiled. Safe haven found in the curve of his lips, carried in his currents, a return to alright, a shifted axis restored. His veins spring hope anew from where ice silenced its flow, and the future will no longer be something for him to face alone.
This was a ToP server collab from 9/25/21.
If lighthouses had talking AIs, Khun's AI would probably berate him for not taking care of himself.

Apparently my director went to see a production of West Side Story a few years ago, and the guy playing Chino forgot his gun before coming out for his final scene. Once it got to the big scene where he is supposed to shoot Tony, he screeched “Poison Boots” and kicked the actor playing Tony until he went down. The girl playing Maria then had to jerk the shoe off of Chino’s foot, and had to do the gunshot scene asking “How many kicks Chino? How many kicks, and one kick left for me”.
Pocky day!
They are in a temporary truce.
Bam will give Khun lots of sweets. <3

Anyways, any new people from Twitter, welcome!
Tumblr’s kinda similar in a buncha ways (Tweet = Post, Retweet and Quote Tweet = Reblog), but here’s a short little summary of things that work differently and might help yall to know:
Optional: Go to your Settings, go to Dashboard, and remove “Best Things First”. This is a very recent attempt by Tumblr to include a form of “Likes” based algorythm. It’s somewhat primitive, and makes it very hard for most posts to get any visibility, so it’s highly recommended to just turn it off. If you do, all posts on your dash will be seen in chronological order instead.
Tags work in a similar way to Twitter, except you now add them at the very bottom of a post! They’re smaller and greyed out, so they’re much less intrusive, and you can add in up to 20 tags per post. The first 5 tags are the ones most likely to show up on searches, so keep that in mind when posting!
Tags are more than just a hashtag system! Because you can write spaces and full sentences in them, people will use them a lot to add uninntrusive comments on reblogs. See, direct comments on reblogs will stick under the original post for any chain of reblogs that originates from yours, and might detract from the original post. Only include comments there if there’s something you think is important to point out of discuss about the original post (and please try keep civil)
REBLOG!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, REBLOG! Tumblr doesn’t work like Twitter. There’s no algorythm here to spoonfeed you the most popular posts based on likes. Things on tumblr only move via two ways: By tags, and especially by reblogs. Always try to reblog posts you like, so they can actually be seen! Likes are nice but don’t actually do anything for visibility! (and no, “Best Things First” doesn’t help expand beyond the people and tags you are already following)
Curate your experience! Blocking is always an option, and because there’s so many possible tags that can be added on a post, it’s much easier to blacklist more specific tags for yourself (For example, blacklisting #gore or #eyestrain). DONT CENSOR WORDS IN TAGS! Stuff like “k!ll” and “s*icide mention” doesn’t screw with “The Algorythm”, because there is none! The only thing it does is make it impossible for people to avoid the tags they’ve blacklisted!
Posts can be as long as you want! Tumblr will automatically “hide” part of a post after a certain point under a “See More” button to prevent cluttering people’s dash (It might’ve even done it for this very post). Just by clicking on it, people will instantly be able to see the full unchanged post, which is very handy!
Anyone’s free to continue adding to this!
