Animate-Pencil-Texture/Line Boil isn't working

I'm trying to add a line boil to my animation but no matter what I try doing it just doesn't work. It doesn't apply in render view and it doesn't apply when exporting as a movie. I'm pretty sure I have everything set up correctly

What the hell happened here? Why did the limbs became like this?

(Image 2 is how the character is supposed to look like.)

I was creating drawing substitutions for the eye to close and when I finished it all the limbs were messed up. I saved multiple times therefore I cant even go back to an older save.

Why did this happen? Alt + up and down does not solve it. I didn't touch anything other than the character's eye while drawing.

Envelope deformer points got disconnected

I'm at a loss for this one. Working with a student on what should be a simple introductory rig, but now that we're doing an animation test it seems that almost all the envelope deformers have broken. Curve deformers still work fine, but when we move points on the envelope deformer, the art work it should be attached to just doesn't come with it. Even more confusing, it has a couple of pieces where it acts like only half of the points are actually connected. Some points won't affect the line work at all when moved, while others will affect it too much, like it's counterparts on the other side don't even exist.

I've dug through the node view on it, haven't found any connections out of place. Curves are grouped how the should be, chained how they should be, nothing looks out of place. I know the student tested the curve deformers as they were created, but they couldn't remember whether or not the envelopes were ever tested, so I have no clue if these broke suddenly, or never worked to begin with. We can make new deformers if need be, but has anyone had this problem before? Know how to fix it, or prevent it?

What is the best way I can add a space texture to the colors?

I’m simplifying this old design for animation and feel like it really needs the space texture.

I’d like to make the stars twinkle and move as a matte on relegated areas of clothing, but to move WITH the character.

Like a preset loop of the stars that is on the same Peg as the character.

Would I use the turbulence node for this? I don’t have much experience with it.

I’ve also never used any textured before so I’m coming at this blind. Before I go into the rabbit hole I just wanted to ask if this is a logical idea or if I’ll be giving myself 10x work.

How to add a transparency effect here with the matte resize still working?

When I do it, it only lowers the opacity of the matte resize and it adds strange bugged dots to the drawing.

I want to make the entire character transparent for the reflection effect AND the matte resize for the thick lineart of the character. How do I do this on the node view?
