I

I LOVE YOUR ART

*ahem*

I love your art so much! I saw some of it on Pinterest, google and yt and oh my god I was in LOVE WITH IT

I think I've seen a few on hoyolab as well!

It's so cute and perfect!

And luke just looks so so cute! And his daughter xia xia is even cuter!

I never thought I'd find you here on tumblr but I am so so glad I did!

I love your art and I hope you keep making it in the future!

Seriously looking at your art is one of the best things that's ever happened to me!

Hi!!!!!

Thank you so much for sending this in T_T I'm so happy you like my brainrots HAHAHA sometimes it feels like I'm sending my art into the bottomless pit that is the internet (especially on tumblr because I started this blog as an archive and I'm not very good at being active 90% of the time) so I'm always super surprised to see people find me somehow.

Anyhow anon, you've made my day today <33 I'm lowkey addicted to social media so the art won't stop any time soon (but I'm probably going to be taking a little mental health break for a while until after exams).

can we get a merch tour :O i always have fun looking at your luke collection!

Hi anon!! When I saw this in my inbox I was like oh my goodness, oh my god, I would LOVE to do a merch tour. So a few things off to preface the chunk of text and images incoming:

1. I really really love low-key merch that can be used in everyday life, so while I have some acrylic prints and badges, I usually store them away.

2. I AM SO SORRY TO ALL THE PEOPLE READING THIS WHO ARE PROPER COLLECTORS AND LOOK AFTER THEIR MERCH LIKE TREASURES. While I truly treasure my Luke merch,, most of them are just kind of put into boxes without any more covering or organisation...

Now, onto the merch tour!

I keep my desk pretty clear - here is Luke who holds my stylus for drawing and my plain lamp that I put a Luke scrunchie on.

On the wall, I have a display for some of my favourite merch items that I switch out when I feel like 🫶 it used to be an entire wall but it was a little cluttered so I cleaned it up right before my exams 💀✌️

And look! Speaking of exams... I keep a lucky charm on my door so I can pass them 😭 thanks to this little boy I managed to stay in uni this long.

And here's my diary that I decorated with the cozy couple's getaway merch. Since 2023 is ending soon, I'll be slowly and carefully removing this and sticking it onto my 2024 diary (yes I use diaries, no I cannot remember what to do without them).

I've got another little Luke on display and the rest I've stored away. I won't lie, the Luke merch is basically half of my storage at this point. Right, and not pictured is the Luke blanket (iykyk) which is in its own corner of isolation in my wardrobe.

Anyhow, that is basically everything for the tour! I don't put out a lot of stuff, which makes for rather dull pictures but I feel like Luke merch has seeped into every corner of my life...

When my phone's out of battery, I take out a Luke power bank. When it's raining, I bring a Luke umbrella. When I'm lounging at home, I wear a Luke T shirt.

And so on, and so forth. Mihoyo makes so many lifestyle items for Themis and it's absolutely ruining me. Bonus shoutout to the Childe cushion that keeps my back from aching on my chair right now (my mum thought he was Luke too).

i wanna squeeze luke’s manboobs

It is times like these that I remember I have a life size blanket with Luke's hot springs invitation printed over it (Luke plushie placed for censorship). I'm letting you know this piece of merch exists because yes. Follow your dreams anon. Luke's manboobs are for sale and very much touchable.

Your ToT isekai is so amazing! ❤️ I wish it was an entire comic but I'll settle for anything! I can't wait to see Artem and the rest make an appearance!

dkfljdlkfj i'm so very happy you're enjoying the au!! i'd really like to draw more of it when i have more energy because it's honestly therapeutic to me to draw the knight/childhood friend as the male lead. but while i might not agree with how webtoon authors choose who becomes the male lead,, i do respect them for drawing so many formal outfits for the characters because OH MY GOD. i scoured pinterest for a good while trying to find a knight uniform for luke.

if you'd like, i might just share an extra tidbit i didn't include in the last comic:

in the debutante kiki mentions, rosa did actually receive some love letters afterwards, but they all mysteriously disappeared. some maids recalled that they saw fragments of burnt paper near the fireplace. when he was asked, luke said he had no idea what they were talking about.

anyway, thank you for the ask, anon!!! it really means so much to me that you're enjoying my tropey au dkfjslkdf
