I Can't Get Over His Hand On The Chin Pose- It Looks So Goofy

Art Journal- Day 2 of Random Art Exercises

First post on Tumblr and it's Our Life brain rot- LMAO

Quick sketches of my mc Edwin Porter while I prepare for the OLNFweek prompts.

For those who can't read my god-awful writing:

-Edwin Porter, Age:10

-Tama compares his hair to cotton candy, Qiu thinks he looks like a sheep.

-He's constantly mistaken for a little girl.

-He's a selective mute. His mum helped him learn some ASL to communicate.

HI THERE its your secret santa here!

just curious on if theres any info you can give me on edwins interactions with other characters? like how do they act with everyone and are there any people who they act differently around?

Sorry! I've been preoccupied lately.

Edwin is usually a very shy person, he wants to get along with everyone but he's hesitant to step forward if that makes sense. I've had this idea in my head that if he likes or is comfortable with someone he'll show it by giving them things. (If that's confusing think of it as similar to a crow giving trinkets LMAO he'll just start sharing things, like snacks, toys, a cool rock, etc.)

With Tamarack he'd be more playful. Since she tends to just charge forward, I think he'd be drawn into the energy of it as a kid. She could probably talk him into trouble if she wanted. They often explore the forest together and play pretend.

With Qiu I think he's the most relaxed and comfortable (other than his mom ofc). I think Qiu's confidence with handling other people would help him feel less anxious, and in turn Edwin checks in on Qiu a lot too. I like to think they trade notes a lot in and out of class since Winnie doesn't really talk. Anywhere between full sheets of conversation and just silly doodles.

With Ren he didn't like her at first, purely because Ren didn't like Tamarack and that was his bestie. As things calm down between those two though, Edwin finds he actually really likes hanging out with her (and the rest of the boy's club). I can't think of anything specific tho..

With Baxter pretty similar to Ren, except he looks up to Baxter. He thought he was kinda of intimidating at first then thought he was really cool.

Sorry, if this is a bit everywhere. Hopefully this helps!

Me, flops down after work: I don't wanna work on anything...

Also me:

Expect Balor or Ryis next-

From the Life of the Sun

"Do you ever wonder if the sun yearns to see the moon that little bit longer? Such simple beauty, made of the same light but somehow with an ethereal twist. Or perhaps it burns with envy, for she lives an eternity without the burden of bearing light. Of life."

(two more pics under the cut)

"I worry, Eden. What if... What if you're right and I don't need to listen to them? And- what if this isn't even me? I think that... Scares me more than failing again."

Hey anonymous person here for no reason whatsoever!

Since your OLNF oc is a selective mute, I was just wondering if Edwin there are any instances or places/people he would say something small? Also does it change later on in the game?

Hello!

Hmmmmmmmmmm! I think he'd the most comfortable in his home, or maybe in Qiu's secret hideout since there's not likely to be anyone around. Basically anywhere quiet and comfy.

As for people it'd be his mum mostly, and Tama and Qiu when he's more comfortable with them. By step 2 maybe even the rest of the boys club. All in all while he gains more confidence he stays on the quiet side throughout his entire life.

Hello! I wanted to ask about your OC for Our Life Beginnings and Always!

Simply put, during the Steps, what was their (going gender neutral to be on the safe side) comfort and interest levels?

Hope this made sense! Thank you!

Hi! Cadence goes by He/him pronouns :) Since he's a very blunt character, I kept him with the Direct comfort level the entire game.

Step 1- Indifference. I like to think they didn't get along at all, but just kinda had to make it work during summers bc of their parents.

Step 2- Crush. I kind of wish you could develop it as you play, bc I think it would've been really cute to see them go from frenemies to awkward crushes. LMAO But as far as I could tell it's locked in.

Step 3&4- Love. This is the era of them being the ClingyDuo ™️

I really wanted to draw my farmer again- This time in my style! I redesigned his first outfit a little bit and added his next two outfits from summer. I looked up how to color scars, but I still struggled a lot trying to pick an accurate color so if you think it looks off pls tell me!

Also, I changed their name. It's Levine now. (Eyvind was too close to Eiland idk what I was thinking LOL)

Day 4- Stargazing

------ small story and a bonus doodle below.

"Look! A shooting star!"

Winnie scrambled up next to Tamarack to see where she was pointing.

Qiu chuckled as he watched them, it wasn't often that they got to see Winnie so excited. He nudged them after a bout of awed silence.

"What are you going to wish for?"

Tamarack immediately began shouting different things that she wanted, but Winnie stayed silent. A different kind of silence then his usual, his face was scrunched up in thought and he had a fist pressed to his chin.

This was serious business.

"I..." Winnie began softly, voice barely above a whisper. Arms wrapped tightly around his stuffed sheep for comfort.

Qiu leaned closer eagerly to hear him better. This was the first time he'd ever heard Winnie speak; it was important that he heard everything!

Winnie looked away to escape their expectant eyes, "I just wanna be friends..."

Qiu frowned in confusion.

"Whaaaaatttttt?!" Tamarack echoed his confusion loudly. "But-! We are already friends!"

"Yeah," he agreed earnestly as he looked out the window for the star. It was gone. "Why'd you wish for something you already had?"

Winnie shrugged in answer, but he had a shy, pleased smile on his face.

Winnie and his mum! <3 She loves listening to him rant like a dork.
