I should be SHOT for drawing half of these.

I had the idea to draw/gather a bunch of my random doodles into a collection about 2 months ago, and I started drawing a bunch of them in my sketchbook while I was on vacation in June. (Got most of them done on the drive between L.A. and San Diego)

Cookie Sense--
Inside joke with:
This one started when ~Babnoba managed to hunt down the bag of chocolate chip cookies that we had stashed in the girls' hotel room at Animazement this year. XD ...at which point, he said that very line, and --since he was our Ikkaku cosplayer-- it was utterly hilarious. :3
(I'm not sure how or why that little "macadamia" Yumichika popped into my head though. ._. But he turned out cute, so I decided to keep him there. ^^)

Homemade Breakfast--
Inside joke with: &
The "grape muffin" thing is a joke I have with Schrei that stemmed from a Yumichika-themed cupcake.
I blame ~Babnoba for the "Ikkaku with a hairnet" idea, courtesy of our cosplay dress-rehearsal day.
...
The apron is 100% me. (and I WANT ONE like that....Srsly. 8D)

"Kenny"--
Inside joke with:
Part of me hated myself for drawing this.
...
And it's pure HELL to try to make Kenny's hoodie cover Kenpachi's ungodly hair. O-o;;;
But think of how funny this would be! 8D "Oh my God, they killed Ke-- oh wait, no he's fine.....Okay, now he's laughing... O___o"
(and I don't wanna hear it if I screwed up Kenny's clothes or anything. XD I don't watch South Park, so get off my back. *lol*)

Welcome to McDonald's--
Inside joke with:
I warned her that I was gonna draw this again! AHAHAhahahaaaa....
Ever since I showed Ramia a Bleach art-meme that I was working on earlier this year, we've had this horrible, ongoing idea that Gin would be perfect to work at a fast-food restaurant. He smiles all the time and he's always ridiculously upbeat! ^____^
(Plus the drive-thru cash register would make a fortune. Customers would drive up, tell him to keep the food, keep the change, beg him not to kill them, and would just throw their money at him and speed off. ^_^)

Linake is a Horrible Drinking Buddy--
Inside joke with: nobody. XD
Based on a random little fact I found on Wikipedia.......No, really!
...
I actually doodled this first on a note to ~UsagiLadyOfMoon , and loved it so much that I HAD TO scribble it in my sketchbook. XD (I added the teasing little chibi-Shunsui a bit later...)

Pet the Kitty!--
Inside joke with:
DAMN YOU, WOMAN.
...
This actually started waaaaaaaaaay back at Animazement 2006, when I did my Greed cosplay. At random points at the con (and every other con where she was with me and I was in my Greed getup) she would come up behind me, start petting my vest, and chanting, "Pet the Greed, pet the Greed..."
When I did the Yoruichi cosplay this past Animazement, and she was Matsumoto, she adjusted her chant accordingly.... =_=;;;

OOGA-BOOGA-BOOGA!!!--
Inside joke with:
First time I've drawn my dear little mischievous sadist, Greed, and his poor target, Dorochet, in quite a while! ^___^ I've missed these guys!
(for those of you who don't get this, it's a reference to a weird little Cartoon Network show called "Courage, the Cowardly Dog".... Click here to see the opening clip , which will help explain it. ^^)

Ikkaku's Past Life--
Inside joke with:
Not really an inside joke, exactly, but I'd mentioned to Ramia that --when I was first starting to draw Ikkaku-- he always reminded me of the random background-character Buddhist monks that show up in "Saiyuki".
...
At least until I finished drawing his eyeshadow.
Then, he just looked like a psychotic, trigger-happy bald man.

Sailor Alchemist--
Inside joke with:
I can't even remember HOW this got started. XD (Something about Ed, Greed, and "Charlie's Angels"-type poses, I think.....)
All I know is that something inspired it, I scribbled it in Photoshop in about 2 minutes, sent it to her, and it just snowballed from there.
(And at AWA '07, while standing in line to bug Vic, someone wanted photos of us in our cosplays. She was Ed, I was Greed...
...
Give ya 3 guesses what pose we did. :3 *tailwag*)

Horribly Out of Character--
Inside joke with: &
The evening that we shaved ~Babnoba 's head (our Ikkaku cosplayer), we played around a bit. Ramia went ahead and put eyeshadow on him. For some odd reason, he ended up putting on someone's glasses, and we all laughed about how very wrong Ikkaku was looking like an intellectual.
...
And then he took the glasses off, picked up a black fedora-type hat that was lying around, and put it on.
I told him he looked like Michael Jackson.

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Baldy?--
Inside joke with: nobody XD
Prior to this doodle, I'd bought a doujinshi on eBay called "Sailor Bleach" (cracktastic crossover between "Sailor Moon" and "Bleach", obviously. Pure genius. Quite possibly the best 15 bucks that I ever spent. XD), where a lot of the Bleach characters --female AND MALE-- were dressed as "Sailor Moon" characters.
Byakuya was Sailor Moon, Rukia was ChibiMoon/Black-Lady (her "Luna-P" was a Kon head), Urahara was Tuxedo Mask/Kamen... Artemis, Prof. Tomoe, the Starlights, and Princess Kakyuu were even included.
...
Poor Ukitake was Pluto. His "Garnet Rod" staff was an I.V. drip. o___o
ANYWAY. I was dying to show the doujin to my con-group. This pic idea popped into my head one day between classes, and I showed the pic to them before showing them the ungodly doujin. X3
