Idk. If you have to do the thing, and you need the other thing to do it, then get the thing you need.

i'm supposed to be drawing a picture of this random lady's child, and well…
no offense whatsoever to the mother or the poor daughter, but this reference picture looks like one of those your grandma takes suddenly while you're playing video games in your friend's basement
the girl is sitting on a slightly messy sofa all slouched over, her hair is seemingly wet, and she has that confused fake smile on her face.
not only that but the composition is awful, like she's placed off center but not near rule of thirds so everything looks wonky, and it's cropped in such a way that just…
i don't know how else to say it
It makes her look fat.
You can tell she's very pretty, but this specific photo ain't it, and no matter how hard i try i just can't reduce the amount of awkward while still keeping it the same.
and while normally i'd just go with it, this lady wants to frame and hang the finished sketch in her house for everyone to see, so it's not just gonna be smiled at then shoved in a drawer, meaning i've got to be extra critical of it to make sure everything looks right but i can't make everything look right cause the photo doesn't look right-

am i terrible for saying this???
cause i feel really terrible…
do i try to ask her for a different one? should i just suck it up and go with it? what do i even do in this situation??? cause she's been waiting a really long time and i feel like asking her now would be rude

Ask her for a new one, I’ve told you this, Ella

but i can't ask her directly so i'd have to ask my mom to ask her and i can just hear the "oh it's not that bad", "you're overreacting", "just do it", or "stop making up excuses"

Show your mom the picture and be like, "look"

Show your mom the picture and be like, "look"

^^^^^

If she try’s to say anything point out the fact you’re drawing it

*tries

“oh it’s not that bad”

*tries

I think I’m just a mess at writing today

I made a spell jar heeheeeeeeeeeeeeeee
And a sigil wheel

Me: Don't put frickin paranormal references in your writing Miriam

Also Me: say that Mr. Gordy went to school there

So I just shocked myself and now my finger is smoking and bleeding lmao

Ooh.

Update: All the other photos are duck lip selfies.
I’m just gonna try my best with the original.

Oh super.
He didn't get to do his presentation in his last class so he's making it up in my class.
Great.

Disgusting.

It is disgusting

Okay he's gone. My freak out drama queen moment is over

I started a book and the main character is meeting a bunch of magical beings and she's just like wow I need a drink
And honestly that would be me too I love her already

I just hardcore dissociated during my online english class and the kids in my group were calling my name for about 5 minutes. When I was done, the guy yelled my name really loud that I got startled and hit the back of my head on the wall. The thing is, I don't use my camera so it was dead silent and then they hear a sharp intake of breath and then my head slamming against the drywall. (I will also post this on the LGBTQ+ community board)
