Oh yeah, verily! However, I still have AT ideas begging to be made into artworks, so it looks like I'm gonna be sucked back into it yet again.

Adventure Time is something of a black hole: it attracts everyone towards itself and bends the fabric of reality on its knees.

Lol, that's quite the exaggeration, but I know what you're getting at

Not literally bends reality, but in the show it might as well do so.

Hee, okay then~

Ugh, I just wish that Frederator Studios, Cartoon Network, and everyone else involved in Adventure Time was more open to letting Marceline and Bubblegum be in an actual relationship with each other. Or at least admit that there is possible subtext to the possiblity it.

That would be nice, but part of the fun is being able to tell our own stories about them. Putting it in a silver platter just isn't as fun as writing fanfiction where —for example —Marcy glomps PB and procceds to spoon her

Its fun to intrepret it in fandom, but it would also be a sign of social progress that two female characters could openly have a homosexual relationship together. Even if its only within the series subtext, or that they once were in such a relationship before they grew so distant.

From a social progress standpoint it does make sense to bring these two together, but I'm not so sure what if that's the aim of the staff. They've stretched the limits of what they can show on the show so far, but I don't think they'd want to tip the scales too far

I can't say I agree, in the politest manner I can. I mean, since they've pushed the envelope so much, why not see if they can push it all the way? Why stop when you're ahead? I don't mean to say that they should put the two together in a relationship simply for the purposes of furthering some political goal, like support for LGBT groups by putting out alternative livestyles out there in what they call a "kids show." If the two character's personalities are incompatible yet the staff forced the characters together into a romance, that would defeat the purpose of the couple entirely. But if the staff choose to bring them together and made Sugarless Gum a believable and adorable couple, I'd firmly support them on that decision regardless if they have any private agenda. Its okay if Marceline and Princess Bubblegum are not a couple too; I support the staff either way. The only problem I have with is their decision to outright deny the possibility that subtext exists between the two. Doing so excludes Sugarless Gum to the fandom only and cuts into one's ability to interpret the show on a deeper level.

So, correct me if I'm wrong; is what you're looking for some certainty between the two? If that is so, then I totally get it. Smallville actually went like that, giving fans a hard time by not showing Clark in his Superman outfit until the very end. Who knows, they might pull off something like it!

I can't speak for the staff, but in as much as I'd like some certainty myself, I find joy wherever they plug in subtext. Maybe they'll do something about it in the future, maybe not but either way we enjoy the series

Yeap, it's Merida I didn't want to add stuff to block the hair so I didn't put in any marks aside from my site and signature. And thank you!

I was just curious not to see it in the descript, that's all. ;
I understand not wanting to block that hair, I'm sure it took a lot of work!!

I updated the description with the copyright notice
You're right, I spent more time on the hair than on the face and clothes. Apart from her eyes, Merida's hair is probably the most utterly striking feature of her. It's a thing of beauty
