Anonymous Asks:

hi you should write a mtf kanaya fanfic bye

arjache Said:

Hi Anon! I’m glad you like my transstuck writing enough that you’d like to see more of it.

I’ve actually thought about exploring the idea of a trans* Kanaya a bit. I think there’s some interesting stuff there - for example, it seems like trolls in general have less sexual dimorphism than humans. So what would body dysphoria look like for Kanaya?

Also, Kanaya’s a jade blood, a very strongly gendered implication in troll society. What’s up with that? How would that factor into what societal expectations she might face because of that?

Note that I do believe there can and should be trans* stories for trolls - any culture in which a character can say “Hey asshole, stop playing games for girls” is probably in dire need of stories about gender and gender expectations. I just think it’s different, and that’s fascinating.

Now here’s the part where I disappoint you: I’ve got a lot of stuff in my writing queue already! Right now I am working on the following things in this order:

1) An entry for Ladystuck Blind

2) The next act of Long Delirious, Burning Blue

3) A trans* story about Puella Magi Madoka Magica

So I don’t plan on writing a Kanaya story any time soon. But it is something I’ve considered and may revisit in the future.

In the meantime, I encourage you to write your own! The nice thing about fanfic is that you don’t have to wait for someone else to write something. If you have some ideas about Kanaya, go for it.

You know, given how often I find myself wearing a black t-shirt over a grey or black long-sleeved underlayer these days, I should probably actually own a Virgo shirt.

arjache answered your question: dingles?

I just want to know how classy and/or fashionable Kanaya’s is.

i legitimately tried to in some way clothe it

like i wanted to give it a little skirt and be witty

alas

it was not to be

Regardless, this is great. Clothes are decidedly optional when one is that…well-endowed with fashion.

I Suddenly Dont Understand Anything

I am quite possibly one of the world’s slowest cartoonists. At this rate I’ll be impressed if I manage to complete the comic this WIP is from before getting my Ladystuck prompt.

But so far I’m really enjoying the new SketchBook Pro 6.

WIP comic sketches.

I’m so predictable.

Can’t not Homestuck.

TG: seriously why are you typing at her
TG: shes right in the next room
TT: I am wooing her.
TT: In the form of a love letter.
TG: ugh this is so stupid
TT: We can’t all communicate exclusively through face-licking and meticulous can layout, Dave.

I keep trying to color this but it keeps coming out all wrong and muddy. So instead here, have the underlying value map. Maybe I’ll try again later.

Original sketch here.

This time I decided to go for the full meta and role play as Kanaya trying to role play.

I…I may have an MSPARP problem, folks.

Oh, and kudos to the excellent Terezi who played along :-)

So much Sylph of Space, gotta see it all

Oh man Tumblr, I just don’t what to do with this sudden influx of sexy Kanaya and/or Rose/Kanaya photo posts on my dash.

I really shouldn’t spam my reblog blog with all of them, should I?

But otherwise how do I choose? Argh, so many good ones.

Maybe y’all should just go admire the amazing collection of Kanaya reblogs over at a-rainbow-drinking-sylph instead.

So the flip technique tells me this is unbalanced as all get out, but here’s the pencils for a Rose/Kanaya piece I’m working on. (This is what I promised myself I could work on if I finished the character research I just posted earlier.)

I get performance anxiety about Trollmegle.

So I decided to just draw a comic about it instead.
