Picture Saturday || July {3} || Whoa, sudden shipping feels.

Hello everyone.

You ever have those weeks that aren't really bad, and they aren't really good, but there's just something about them that makes you kind of all... weird.

It's not really a bad mood, and it's not really a good mood, it's just there, and you sit there feeling vaguely happy, and vaguely depressed at the same time and how does that even work?

Mm.

Anyway, SURPRISE! This post is actually up on time, which is crazy!


This week, in pictures, I'm a horrible person, because I promised Seven Brides for Seven Brothers* fanart, and I did not deliver.

*hereafter referred to as SBfSB because who has time to write that whole thing out over and over again?


BUT I DID LISTEN to the Mary Poppins Broadway musical, which prompted a re-listen to the movie soundtrack, and excuse me, why isn't there more fanart for Mary and Bert? Hello? They're perfect.

1.) So yeah. I really like how their relationship is kind of mysterious and mutually magical, and they know everything about each other and they're fabulous.

Next week will probably consist mainly of the colored versions of these, you've been warned.

2.) Yeah, somehow Bert in the musical managed to measure up to Bert in the movie, and that requires skill.

3.) BOOM, I finally colored in Iron Man 'cause Civil War emotions hit me like a ton of bricks. (ALSO, did you see how it looks like the Arc Reactor is glowing? Did you see?)

4.) Random bride insertion, because why the heck not?

5.) Also this vaguely creepy one. Is she good? Is she evil? Only the dead can say....

6.) Frikken lovey-dovey pictures because if I can't have it, I'mma draw it, so sue me.

7.) Kate's sad for some reason. Max probably ate her last cookie or something, because that's just how Max's character works.

8.) Aaaand while we're on the subject of Kate, let's throw in some Tristan for good measure. (I know some of you ship them, and honestly, I don't know how I feel about that.)

9.) Strangely enough, I like drawing floating heads, cause reasons.

10.) Bert and Mary's flirtationship makes me happy.

11.) *Facepalm*

Look at his perfect slacks. THEY ARE PERFECT.

Yeeaaah.

I'm super tired.

And I'm actually gonna sign off, because my dearest, most bestest cousin is up visiting and I must spend time with her. So!

Question Time!

Favorite overall?

Best black and white?
Favorite fanart?
How's your weekend going?

I love you all!

Happy Windsday, Eeyore!

Contrary to what y'all may be thinking, this post is not about the adorable and loveable Pooh Bear.

Nope.

It is however, about a windy day.

And kites.

(It would have been a lot cooler if it had been on Wednesday, because Windsday and Wednesday sound alike. But as it is, it's Thursday, which is much less cool.)

School was done (much to this first grade teacher's delight) and I was inside doing vocal warm-ups. (The parents were gone, and this usually results in me standing by the piano, going: *Plink* "MeeeEEEEOOOOOOooooo." *higher plink* "MeeeEEEEEEOOOOOOooooo." *higher plink* "MeeeEEEEEOOOOOOOOoooo!" *cue glass shattering at my epic high notes.)

I was at the height of a high E.... (Lies. I can only hit D♭, and only when I'm really warmed up.) .... When all four of the little girls came running in going, "Treskie, if we do lunch dishes, can you take us to the meadow? Pleeeaaase?"

How could I say no to four imploring pairs of eyes? (Also, I really didn't feel like doing lunch dishes, so that was a plus.)

So we got our stuff together and hiked awa' to the meadow.

"Let's go fly a kite
Up to the highest height!
Let's go fly a kite and send it soaring
Up through the atmosphere
Up where the air is clear
Oh, let's go fly a kite!"

At first it was perfect kite flying weather, and the kite's took off with a great sort of eagerness that made all the wee'ans cheer with delight. 

 

 

Such much. (It's fun to say that. Say it. Say such much and tell me if you didn't have fun.) 

By the end, unfortunately, the wind had picked up to gale-like proportions and they spent a great majority of the time tending to crashed kites which could not fly under such circumstances. 

Like so. 

Eventually most of them gave up and did other things. Sammie climbed a tree and got herself stuck. 

I brought my notebooks and attempted to write. 

I took a moment to do Annie's hair in a five strand braid, because she couldn't handle it in her face. 

 And then basically everything morphed into a photoshoot.

 

All in all, not a bad day.

Yours Sincerely:
The Frenchiest Fry

Tag: If I were a........

I've been thinking.

Does anyone else think "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" is too long of a word to be of any use whatsoever? Who's going to take the time to say "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" when "splendiferous" will do just as well? 

Call me absurd and lazy, but I  certainly wouldn't take the time to say supercalifragilisticexpialidocious in a conversation. 

              Now, now, Mary. Don't look at me like that. You know it's true.

Ahem. Anyway...

Do you agree....? Or is that just me?

So I saw this over at Cat's blog and thought it was delightful, and therefore decided to do it. Here we go:

If I were a gemstone: I'd be an amethyst, or jade. 

If I were a scent: I'd be lilac. 

If I were a pair of shoes: I'd be dark brown, knee high dress boots. 

If I were the weather: I'd be sunny. And probably pretty windy.

If I were a facial expression: Eh. I'd be.... um.... My expression changes a lot.

If I were a car: I'd be a mini-cooper. (I'd say Land Rover, or Range Rover, but I don't look like those.)

If I were a time of day: I'd be about six in the evening.

If I were a month: I'd be May.

If I were a place: I'd be home.

If I were a liquid: I'd be a cup of coffee.

If I were a taste: I'd be chocolate. (Believe it, people. I am that sweet.)

If I were a sea animal: I'd be...... but I hate sea animals!

If I were a food: I'd be... delicious. *grin*

If I were a color: I'd be dark purple with a hint of grey. 

If I were a musical instrument: I'd be a French horn. Or the human voice. Take your pick.

If I were a flower: I'd be an orange lily. 

If I were a song: I'd be You Are Loved (Don't Give Up) By Josh Groban.

If I were a planet: I'd be Venus? Or Saturn. 

If I were an object: I'd be a purple coloured pencil. 

If I were a fruit: I'd be a peach. Or strawberry.

If I were a sound: I'd be music. 

If I were a day of the week: I'd be Saturday. 

And there you go. You now know me that much better. That was actually quite fun, and it's nice not having to tag other people. If you want to you should do this, it's kind of hard thinking of what you would be in such-and-such a case. 

UPDATE! 

Since twenty followers came and went, I'm now having a twenty-five follower giveaway! (SQUEEEEEEEE!!!!) I just need to finish getting my stuff together and then things will get awesome around here. Stay tuned, it ought to be fun. :) 

Until next time!

God bless, 

Treskie
