A screencap showing Sakura-con's schedule. The fan panel "Exploring Motherhood in Arcane" is taking place on 4/3/2026 at 9:30 pm in the room Arch 310.

Description: What if Arcane didn’t stop at the question: “is there anything so undoing as a daughter?” We’re asking: is there anything so undoing as a mother? From unpacking how their roles shape the narrative, to defining what makes someone (or something) a mother, join us in our hexploration of maternal themes in Arcane. Don’t forget to stick around for some freebies after the panel!

An edited screencap from the tv show Arcane: League of Legends. Viktor holds two badge ribbons that say "Amomaly" and "Hexmother" on them. The subtitles read: "Um, the form is crude, but..."

Picture of a purple button badge depicting a simplified Machine Herald giving a thumbs-up while making the "ok" hand sign with his hexclaw. The text reads: "I got my Hexbortion at the 2026 Arcane Mother Panel".

#sakuracon2026 is next week! I'll be hosting an #Arcane fan panel on Friday with @t0ytle.bsky.social and @/overhaulisms (tumblr), talking all about the moms!

We will have ribbons! Freebies! Hardcore analysis of maternal themes and imagery! It'll be great. Please stop by!

edited tiktok screenshot with OP drawn over the original person, pointing to an overlayed sticker of rio from arcane as a fetus. the text is changed to say: “AI will take your job” you sure? I make baby rio in the womb photobash stickers and make NO money

an educational poster-style infographic titled “Stages of EmbRIO Development: The making of fetal Rio sticker. by toytle, M.D.” the stages are as follows: 1) search fetus google images 2) hue shift/gradient maps 3) liquify & photobash 4) rio-ify & render 5) finishing touches!

photobashed a rio fetus freebie for my upcoming Exploring Motherhood in Arcane panel at #sakuracon2026 w @fruchtfleisch-art.bsky.social and @/overhaulisms (tumblr)!! hope to see you there! the embrio needs a home…

Fanart of Poison Ivy as an LPS deer. She is a light fern green, sporting a vine pattern along her front leg and red fawn spots. Her deep red hair is adorned with roses and leaves and swoops over one eye. Her antlers resemble thorny branches with rose bud vines wrapping around them. The text reads: antlers = branches. shedding antlers symbolize seasons/cycles of nature (+ transfem headcanon). flower shines, rose thorn eyelashes. forehead pattern = headwear. fawn spots = rose petals. “The deer represents freedom and harmony with the natural world, a forest dweller hunted by man.”

Fanart of Poison Ivy as an LPS skunk. She is a dark forest green with a long cream-colored stripe running down her forehead to her tail. Her deep red hair is adorned with roses and leaves and swoops over one eye. Her bushy tail resembles a rosebush with thorny vines wrapping around it. The text reads: spray = pollen imagery; a skunk’s spray acts as both a pheromone + allomone. in ivy’s case, an ability to trigger a reaction in both plants and humans alike. flower shines, rose thorn eyelashes. chest pattern = heart neckline. bushy tail = rosebush. “The skunk represents self-defense and resilience, taking extreme but necessary measures to protect one’s space.”

one of my fav “littlest pet superheroes” i’ve done so far 🌿

hal is bigender (she/him), berry (bernadette) is transmasc butch (he/her) for those of you that are new here!

Hal: [leaning back on hand, head tilted, soft amused smile] Y’know… I don’t think you need blush after all. Berry: [subconsciously leaning forward, starry-eyed and still deeply blushing pink] Huh? Why? [pink bubble lights fading into a darker background]

[bonus page, both looking in mirror] Berry: [wearing makeup, smiling awkwardly, sweat drop, rubbing back of neck] I think it looks better on you. (note: feels like crossdressing in makeup) Hal: [wearing makeup, small smile checking herself out in reflection curiously, thoughtfully, light flush of pink across cheeks, surrounded by sparkles] (note: would look good in anything anyway)

(3/3)

[fancomic in grayscale] Hal: [grimacing at makeup utensils in her hands] I’m way out of my depth here. (note: learning how to use makeup) Berry: [leaning over] I wish I could give you advice, but I’ve never worn makeup before. Hal: [turning towards Berry, incredulous] NEVER? In your entire life? Berry: [sheepishly] No? I never felt the need to. Hal: [tilting head, smiling thoughtfully] Hmm… I think you can still help. Hal: [off-screen] I could use a blank slate to practice on. Berry: [wide-eyed expression, pink lightning bolt blush] ?

[both kneeling on floor, makeup beside them] Hal: [isolated panel] Stop moving. [applying mascara onto Berry, annoyed] I don’t want to waste product because you can’t hold still. Berry: [squeezing eyes shut, gritting teeth] I told you, I’m not used to this kind of thing. Hal: [putting mascara away] Yeah, well, depending on how this goes, you’re gonna have to.

Hal: [powdering blush applicator] Let’s just do blush. Should be easier. Berry: [watching application, unassuming] Okay. Hal: [tucking a finger under Berry’s chin] Now hold still. Berry: [looking up at Hal in sudden surprise, slightly blushing pink] Hal: [casual but focused, leaning in to apply blush, bringing Berry in closer by the chin] Berry: [blush deepening, eyes wide in awe, focused on Hal] [values gradually getting dimmer and panels zooming in closer, creating a more intimate atmosphere. last panel is lit up with an ambient glow]

[parallel panels of back-to-back closeups, first Berry, then Hal] Berry: [blushing hard, pink blooming across her cheeks to her ears, looking back in awe with glowing shines and lightning bolts in her eyes as Hal holds her chin in one hand and the applicator in the other] Hal: [taken aback, faintly blushing pink, applicator hand breaching the 4th wall of the panel but halting in surprise] [soft bubble lights background]

(2/3)

Shoujo manga-style Halbarry yuri fancomic cover, titled Blush. Hal is leaning in to apply blush on Berry’s face, bringing her in closer by the chin. Berry is blushing, eyes wide in awe. Hal’s eyes are on Berry’s cheek to apply the blush, but Berry is focused on Hal. Appearance-wise, Hal is growing out her hair, wearing stud earrings, a long-sleeved shirt that’s pulled up right below the elbows, and a discrete version of the power ring. Berry has a crewcut, wearing a sweater over a button-down shirt, collar sitting on top of the neckline. The cover is in pink monochrome against a white background, lighting them up in an ambient glow.

still figuring out this screentone thing 💔
#halbarry

i beta’d this btw 🤭

fanart page of various wally west headshots depicting him as mixed race (black/white) with freckled, light-medium colored skin; copper red, loosely curly hair; green eyes; and a wide nose with a straight, narrow nose bridge. the 2 main sketches consist of profile busts, one as kid flash, the other as the flash, both maskless. kid flash has short hair, eyes wide and mouth agape in surprise. flash has longer hair and more prominent sideburns, eyebrows furrowed in solemn expression. the background is scattered with various doodles redrawn from panels and screenshots, from left to right: 1) tilting his head down, saying, “yes, uncle barry.” 2) staring at the camera with deadpanned exasperation, thinking, “kill me.” 3) wearing gym clothes, answering the phone, “west.” 4) smiling, waving his hand dismissively, saying, “nah, forget it.”

DC fanart of Hal Jordan and Barry Allen getting ready for a date night. Hal is in the foreground, buttoning up a dress shirt and wearing dangling green jewel earrings, his power ring, and a silver band. His hair is subtly grown out with grays starting to form at the temple. He looks back to see Barry framed by the closet door and light within, and he gives him a soft smile that crinkles the corners of his eyes. Barry is dressed in a button-down shirt, dress pants, and socks, indecisively holding up two loose bowties to compare to the one draped around his collar. His hair is neater than usual. The background is decorated by a picture frame and dresser with mirror, reflecting the bedside and the glow of the room. The room is dimmed in shades of purple and pink, lit by the closet and the lamp in the reflection, offering Hal a soft bounce light in contrast to Barry’s shadow.

trying new brushes lowkey gives you an identity crisis

closeup sketch of hal jordan drinking a milkshake for two, leaning forward to take a straw between his teeth. he looks across the shared drink to someone out of frame, tilting his head in endearment, eyes soft but creasing with his smile.

halberry yuri rough guidelines. berry and hal are facing each other in back-to-back panels as hal holds berry’s chin, attempting to apply blush onto him. berry looks at hal with mesmerized sparkling eyes, cheeks reddening with blush. hal looks taken aback by the reaction and eye contact, slightly blushing in response.

the same halberry yuri panels, now properly lined. hal’s hand breaches the 4th wall of the panel, reaching out to berry from the reader’s point of view.
