Drip coffee and ham sauce.

Two and a half weeks later, TA DAAAH. DONE.

(Unless anyone has a b-side they wanna see, in which case just tell me which one.)

Vices & Virtues: It Came



( Here there be monsters. Or. Well. Shane Drake. Close enough. )

♠ You guys rock. I know I require a ridiculous amount of handholding to get anything done like this, ever, so I appreciate the validation and encouragement. I'm glad it's been making people laugh.

♠ I'm strongly considering Razia's Shadow as a follow-up project.

♠ The other candidate for a follow-up would be this zombie apocalypse thing I've had rattling around in my head since October. Yeah, I know everyone and their dead grannie is doing zombie apocalypse things, but I wanna get it out of my system, and the only way that's gonna happen is if I stupid-comic it. I don't have the time, energy, or attention span to do a full-blown comic, I don't think, but if I just sorta worked through it in doodles, maybe..?

♠ Would anyone be interested in a zombie doodle comic?

♠ I know I do this like, every other post, but here it is again- Let me know if you want off this filter! Or, rather, if I should make a new filter for future stupid-comics posts so your flist isn't spammed all to hell, but you can still view the V&V ones. I'm easy.

♠ Um. Actual active bandom-type people on my flist? Should I like, make these more public? I know they're pretty lame and I mostly just do them for kicks. I have no idea of people who don't know me would think they were entertaining, but maybe?

♠ Not that it really counts, but this is sortakinda my first-ever actual completed comics project. And... I have a degree in comics. I'm just gonna fistpump a bunch and ignore the really depressing second part of that statement.




Done.

The Academy Is... split up yesterday. SURPRISE!

For a band that has maybe two songs that I can listen to without cracking up/changing tracks, I'm sort of in love with them. They're just so... sweet. With a heavy side of derp, but I think that's just part of the package. And in following with their sweet, earnest love fest cum band legacy, they just enacted what I think may be the most amicable split in the history of the internet.

( Complete with Tweets like these. )

Michael Guy Chislett and Andy Mrotek are the ones leaving, so I'm a little curious about how this whole big fourth album Bill keeps hyping is gonna get recorded, minus a lead guitar and drummer. Oh well. I'm shallow. All I care about is the continuation of stuff like-


You get the idea.

Anyway.

Vices & Virtues: It Came



( Some splits are maybe not so friendly. )

♠ The b-sides, guys. The b-sides. ♥

♠ D: + fish sticks + Saves The Day = :D (It's like Chris Conley feels all of my feelings, and then we sing about them together! yes, I am the center of the universe. why do you ask?)

♠ I feel like kind of a failure every time I look at my flist and see bbbartists calling for pinch-hitters in the first round. I know it's ridiculous and it would make me miserable to even try and that I have an art lineup as long as my arm to cram in before August, but I still feel like a lazy failure kind of. Woe.

Okay, so besides the fact that this song mentions organs. ORGANS. ♥ ♥ ♥.

Besides that.

I can't not approve of a song that makes all of my Panic!-Disney associations a reality.



Vices & Virtues: It Came




( See? Told you so. )



♠ Total amnesty still applies if you want off the filter for these. Just comment or email!

♠ I almost started setting up a website last night. The end is extremely fucking nigh.

♠ ...I wish everybody could see my cat Patrick licking the paper this is drawn on right now. Specifically the picture of Pete Wentz.

♠ Someday I'll stop mentioning my cats every post. I promise.

♠ Everyone should have a second chance to appreciate aquidis's efforts in Photoshop.

♠ Caaaaalm yourself, Saportaaaa.

I have been awake foreverrrrrrrr. My life keeps happenninnnnngggggg.

Whatever. POST TIME! :D

Vices & Virtues: It Came



( we just wanna get down on the floor )

♠ Yes, I am in fact aware that Odette and Odile are typically played by the same prima.

♠ The idea of Suarez and Ryland making out actually kind of makes me want to die a little. ...In a not entirely awful way.

♠ Nate Navarro, my love is deep and it is eternal. Baby, this thing is so real.

♠ ...Gabe Saporta will probably never not be Fairy Godsaporta in my stupid comics. I think I just realized that.

( crap, I guess I never technically posted this... )

♠ Don't be hatin.

dorian_mauve, this is yours. Thanks for keeping me company last night. ♥ ♥ ♥ (you totally deserve more)

Continuing...

Vices & Virtues: It Came

seriously. why aren't you running?


supplemental material below the cut, of course.

( I have this whole scenario worked out in my head where Brendon is a vampire in Lost Boys and wrote this song while hovering around outside Spencer's window, watching him sleep. Kiefer Sutherland comes by at some point. )

♠ Spoiler! Expect cameos.


♠ I actually managed an attention span longer than twenty minutes last night, so HOORAY! I've finally got another big piece going that might stick this time. Facial scars and fancy clothes point to yes.


♠ So I have this thing, right, for Ryan Ross in really douchey sunglasses. It's a thing. Kanye is on board.

So pretty much reni_days rocks my world.

This has been gestating for like, a week or so, after a conversation we had about Brendon Urie and his truly remarkable use of subtlety in metaphor. By which we mean, his utter inability to engage it.

It was worth a try, right?


Don't get it? This might help.
Oh no, I seem to have forgotten my bathing suit. Oh, my goodness. You're so wet.

ETA


WHYYYYYYYYYYYY?
