oqua your drawing is great!! you're very talented! I don't think his body looks bad at all. He does look a bit like a serial killer there but it is the influence of dark phil from the bedroom.

speaking of phil I was rewatching SAP eps, as you do, and found back what might be one of my fav dirty Phil moments @7:10

That picture is great, the texture/style is really cosy. I love the shiny gold popcorn, the socks and his face is so real. All the stuff in the background too, it must take a while to do.

I love the drawing

Question: I feel like i missed something, where did 'deppy' originate?

Honestly this kind of joke makes me wonder how much Phil (or Dan) really know about women.
Usually when she is expecting pain, she is calling the po po.

The drawing is amazing and I love it so much!

Great drawing,oqua! Quite realistic!

By the way, where do you think they'll do their joint live shows while on the road? The tour bus? Hotels? Not entirely sure how either could work, tbh.

Yeah, watch it turn out to be Dan Layton. Can we call her a phan-baiter then?

So idk, logic does tell me it'd be easier for them to just present themselves as friends at work, which isn't a lie, but I kind of... hope that's not true, I'd rather imagine a world in which the people at R1 are professional enough to be trustworthy not to spil stuff to the internet. But yeah, no, you're probably right.

I feel like if they didn't know, they suspected; why would everybody look so uncomfortable in this video? Aled must have known something at least (watch his reaction at :58-1:15).. It feels like the same awkwardness that everybody had after Chris's 2022 marriage question in the Geek Week special. Very 'he just said that out loud. look natural. ha. ha...'
no?

no?

That's how I always thought it looked like as well. I don't think that outright told everyone, but that the people did have an inkling.

I mean... can they both just fuck off. Now those 'smol beans' will start apologising for all of the apologies that Hazel provoked with her dumb joke in the first place. Rolling my eyes right back at Dodie. So patronizing, the both of them.

/i'm sick and have no patience today

i took it as joking about first time. But I agree I don't think Phil (maybe Dan a bit more) knows much about women.

Honestly I don't think they are out at the BBC. but with all he jokes from Jameela, Scott Miles and co. it's safe to assume everyone there thinks they are together.
I think it is a fairly common thing by now for deppy that all their colleagues (or anyone) just assume they are together

ugh. same. I hate hazel so much, tbh. I hate that patronizing attitude of hers, and, the fact that she's manipulative af.

Where are you going? Are you going to hide in his hair?

You guys I had to stifle my laugh cuz I read this in the silent compartment of the train exactly what I thought when I saw the photo. Had an inkling that Dan hadn't left yet but maybe now he has. Too bad he didn't so a live show but hopefully that was cuz he was busy editing (undertale?!) One can hope

Honestly I don't have a clue, and don't care that much. As long as I get my live shows, I'm all good.

to me, this is the most uncomfortable thing Hazel's said yet, like everything else felt like her kind of humor/coping mechanism as she's not used to the flood of comments/responses/emotion/tone of humor that comes with the phandom & I was personally fine with it, but either people were really overcompensating to a scary degree or she just does not know when to stop.
(but I do appreciate that her tagging Phil was a bit weird & it felt like another Alfie, which I'm sure most people don't need, but I don't think it was meant as such)
and like I get it, I'm sure that gaining 20k+ followers in a few days feels great esp. to someone who's "only" working towards 200k - but this feels like she's trying to adopt a language that's not natural to her at all and if anything, it comes of a bit condescending.

All I can say about this whole situation is just ugh.

WOW Oqua that drawing is amazing. Can you share some of your skills with me?

She will definitely be a Phan-baiter if it isn't Dan this time!!

I am guessing it is two videos then. One with Phil and One with Dan. That means we will get 4 videos (At least) from this collab. Dan's now and Phil's later in the month.

Hazel and Dodie. Can you two just stop please? Really starting to piss me off now.

You're so talented Oqua!
I agree, the chin is cute, and the sparkly phone case.

oqua wrote: I FINISHED.

The more I look at it the more I don't like it...shading is hard. Anyway, I think I bit off a bit more than I could chew but I really really love the concept so I just had to draw it. It was actually really nice to do some art...I used to do art all the time in high school but then I kind of stopped.

Anyway, hope you enjoy it. Thanks for the idea Diyes_Celine, and thanks for suggesting socks, hollyphan.

(Don't look too closely because his body/skin is like...weirdly drawn idk. Also the popcorn looks like leprechaun gold. Whatever, I'm over it.)

I think it looks amazing!!
I can never draw on computer because I am a bit technological challenge so that was extra from me.

Re Hazel and Dodie. Ugh.

You are my favourite person!!!! I don't know how you do it especially with all the Tumblr likes you've done.

oqua that is amazing!!

oh my god. I honestly thought the drama already ended. Just, stop.

Hazel, Dodie, just take note of Dan and Phil. Ignore the drama or slight overreaction (though provoked by yourself). Reply to the nice tweets. Talk about literally anything else. Freaking move on.

oqua that drawing is amazing It looks so realistic. I had to look twice at the stuffs above the drawer because i thought it look like the real stuffs. It's beautiful, i love the shading too.

Seriously. Didn't she learn from being marginally involved with all of Evan's phandom bullshit to stay out of it? Absolutely nobody benefits from this, just leave it alone. I think she was better off as Evan's roommate... she was allegedly the positive influence there. What happened.

"Some people are very silly"
Indeed.

Can they just f*off???!!! Hazel! I defended your collab. You're making me regret my rant and my post. Why don't they just leave those fans alone. How old are they??!!

BTW I've finally managed to read all the GG threads. It took me 1 month (I have no life.). I know get the frustration with D&P's individual channels, the never-ending discussion on whether phan is real and sexuality debate. And may I just say despite the quality and quantity of content in 2015, it's amazing how 1 thread can only last at most 2 weeks compared to 2014. But I still don't know dd's password.

Firstly, oqua, I love your drawing

Re: Hazel: Just when I thought I couldn't be more pissed off at the situation... I'm awaiting another wave of tumblr text posts about how lovely and forgiving she is. Sorry I'm so bitter. Also wtf Dodie

Oqua your drawing is amazing, really! Love the socks

btw, I saw this on instagram. I think it's proven, where Phil has his clumsiness from.

and can somebody explain how I post links/pictures like that properly? I don't get it, sorry for the silliness
