Chalk pastel. 10" X 12 1/2". Finally finished it after ignoring it for weeks. It's been difficult to maintain my motivation, so I hope we get some news this week!
I'm trying to take screenshots of all the nifty Alex Rider stuff I want to keep from Twitter, so that I can dump the platform entirely eventually, and there's a lot!
We had so much fun! π₯Ή
@paperclipscipio@Vanillekeks0@7Gobbolino The AR activity is nearly non-existent so far, but I will persevere. Then again, it's barely active here now. I'll post any new fanart on Bluesky.
I have a Discord account with/at/for? Cubs Army, but the layout is confusing, and I haven't posted anything yet.
@paperclipscipio@Vanillekeks0@7Gobbolino Yes, some people who were really active here seem to have stopped posting.
I've been on Tumblr a bit too, but it isn't really conversational. I miss that.
@zorallens@7Gobbolino I'm on Bluesky and Tumblr. Tumblr has an existing Alex Rider community, but it's mostly posts and reblogs. Bluesky lends itself much better to conversations, in my opinion, like old Twitter. I don't know if there are more than two of us there... YET. I'm magicboxoftwine on both.
@paperclipscipio@Vanillekeks0@7Gobbolino That's the only reason I'm still here at all, but unfortunately I really feel like I have to do whatever is in my power to resist what's happening. I've been trying to get people to move over to Bluesky. Even if we move slowly, one at a time, maybe we could regroup there. π€·πΌββοΈ
@paperclipscipio "Oh, you tried watching it and didn't really get into it?" *represses shocked expression* "I guess I can forgive you..." *pretends to be joking*
@GuyBurtAuthor Wonderful! Thank you so much for your answers! I'm glad he was referring to his mum. We don't hear much about Helen, but Alex would have been the centre of her universe for the short time she was with him.
I've been holding on to a few questions, but I should probably ask now just in case the USA decides to start an actual war with us π¨π¦ and I I have to quit this app (which I might have to do eventually anyway). So, if you have time, @GuyBurtAuthor I'd really appreciate it! 1/4
My last question is, have you considered getting an account on Bluesky?
And for anyone else reading this, my username on Bluesky is magicboxoftwine. I'm not planning on leaving here immediately, but if something happens and I vanish from here, you know where to find me! 4/4
My second question is, when Alan Blunt says, "Your father was a hero," and Alex says, "They both were," did Alex mean his father and mother or his father and Ian, or something else? 3/4
