Grades! I meant to have this up earlier today, but sorry, I was sus. This is the last normal project before the finale! Let's see those childhood dreams of yours, gang!
First off, we have
Sue Bazooms!

Well, I guess I don't even need to look at the name to know who made this one! I mean, your artistic skills weren't amazing, but they get the point across for sure!

Quote:Here is a genuine picture from my childhood depicting my imagined future!
I have succeeded in most of those goals - riding a ferris wheel, receiving awards for my magnificent breasts, and having a pond full of the most beautiful aquatic creatures. The only thing I have yet to achieve... is love. :(
W...where do they give out awards for having giant boobs? I'm glad you feel so accomplished, though, and I like that you've started to express yourself in ways that aren't just talking about your breasts, even if the stuff outside of your boobs is a little surface level.

Next up is
Grungo!

Grungo, this is amazing! It's like a superhero comic book cover! You've even defeated your nemesis, Fun With Dinos!

Quote:Grungo want grow up big strong protect family from dino
Grungo do exactly that
Now Grungo want start family of own
Want become good example for little brother
Mostly there but want go further
I like how sweet and earnest you are about what you want. It's very wholesome, as always, Grungo. I'm sure your little brother looks up to you!

Oh my God.
BTGGF might actually be some kind of goofy nickname for an iconic competitive Pokemon moveset, like Tyraniboah?

Wow, this is a nice drawing. I like the Gastly!

Quote: And so far, I haven't been able to make a career out of that, because Pokemon only exist in video games, and I have yet to go full Twitch e-girl.
Well, why let your dreams be dreams? You've got the big boobs to succeed at a career in Twitch, what's stopping you from taking the world on and becoming the most successful Pokemon content producer there is? It's never too late to be a Pokemon Master! You could be like Cynthia in real life!

And now for
Grizz!

J... jesus christ! You put lipstick and blush on a bear? Why would you do this? I mean you drew background so that's already more visually impressive than everyone else but... why?
A-
Quote:Grizz here. I drew my mom, who I looked up to more than anyone else. It was just me and her when I was growing up, but she was strong enough to take on the world for me. She was equal parts fierce and gentle - a real mama bear. Hence the way I drew her, haha. That's me behind her - I'm also a bear. For the symbolism.
I'm a simple guy, so if I could become someone as reliable and strong as my mom, that would be enough for me. As for whether I've achieved that goal, I suppose I'm halfway there. I can take care of myself well enough, and I'm definitely tough. Something's still missing, though. Until now, I've been independent - only looking after myself. I think what I lack is something or someone to protect. I hope I can change that.
Oh! Okay. For the symbolism. I mean, I go by seal on every internet site but I might not actually be a seal, so I get ya. I think it's sweet how you looked up to her and how that's sort of shaped how you think about what you want! And I appreciate how thoughtful you always are with your answers.

Next up is
The Big Man!

Oh my God you're going to KILL that poor man on that mat from that high up! And probably break your arm! But hey, it's a childhood fantasy. I like how dynamic it is, despite being stick figures!
B+
Quote:That's me, with the horns. When I was younger, the one thing I wanted to be, above all else, was a professional wrestler. I wasn't ever able to pull it off, though, just because of my life's circumstances.
Ultimately... my chosen career path was similar enough to make me happy. It's very physical and allows for a lot of hands on work, and I get to use my strength to my advantage and stand tall in victory over others at the end of the day. I'm satisfied with it.
Well, I'm sorry to hear it didn't work out, Big Man! But I'm happy you get to stay on your feet and keep fit with your job now. Are you a professional Baseball player or something?

And now we have our favorite lovable Dinosaur nerd,
Fun With Dinos!

JESUS CHRIST YOU'RE AN ACTUAL DINOSAUR???? NO WONDER GRUNGO KILLED YOU! (I'm glad you got better, at least! Just as long as you don't learn to use any door handles!)
B-
Quote: I used to think I'd make a good teacher, but it turned out I'm too birdbrained for it! It's still something I think about though, helping others learn new things is cool.
Aw, Dinos, don't let your dreams be dreams. If you want to teach, you should teach! I like the heartfelt answer, even if I'm also a little terrified of the fact that you're a dinosaur.

Next up is
Seaman from Maryland! His answers are always silly and fun!

Seaman...

Quote: Aye, seaman here. Was blown adrift and had to find an alternate route home, but here we are. While me ship was pushed off curse, I put together this little piece. To be a man of the sea! And aye, I feel I've made it...mostly.
Well, I'm glad you achieved what you sought out to do. But I feel like you might have used that internet connection that you use to watch Virtual YouTubers to plagiarize some artwork...

Today's Rosemon has to go to Grizz, even if it was tough, since I liked your answers that weren't stolen! In the end, I was looking for something on the more detailed side, and I really appreciated the thought he put into his answer, as well as the metaphor with him and his mother being a bear cub and bear.

Tomorrow morning... the FINALE thread will go up! Your FINAL EXAM will be posted. I will give you a good long time for submissions for this one, and I won't expect any art this time, don't worry. The FINAL counts for more than the individual nights, so if you do the math and you're behind, don't worry! A really strong final can pull you ahead! See you guys there!
