art will save you, being unreasonably passionate about something niche will save you, letting past sources of joy show you the way back to yourself will save you, earnestness over composure will save you, the natural world will save you, caring for something bigger than yourself will save you, daring to be seen will save you, kindness not as a whim but a principle will save you, appreciation as a practice will save you, daring to try something new will save you, grounding will save you, love will save you, one good nights sleep will save you

Hi, I love your artwork!

Could I request a Ren and Calamari reunion? Their goodbye in ep3 was so emotionally open-ended, I wonder what would happen if they were able to meet again.

Thank you!

Hi! Thank you, that makes me so happy🤍

Sigh I would die for this two, I still not gonna forgive dev for never bring up calamari even once

Thank you for the request! Hope you like this!

realised this compilation of all the omamoris has been sitting in my drafts forever but in light of shop update tomorrow here's all of them in one post!!

MINORS DNI

it's 6am rn as I type this. i just had a brain blast while watching a video of a pokemon playthrough. i need 2 get this out of my head so i can sleep properly and stop shivering with excitement at the mere idea of it.

this will probably be posted after i discuss it with a tkdb mutual but un4tunately i don't feel like dming anyone right now so this will sit in my drafts until im brave or a miracle happens (edit: i decided 2 be brave and grow a pair LMFAOOOO)

ok folks

how do we feel about crossdresser subaru...?

giving u 1 week 2 answer. if this gets enough positive votes ill write it after i finish the Ren fic, Haku perv fic pt 2, and the Subaru perv fic pt 2, so it will be a long while b4 it gets posted.

and please feel free 2 leave feedback actually I'd be nervous if u all only liked 😭 please tell me ur thoughts!

So anyways with the rapid rise of fascism I feel it’s a good time to point out that it’s perfectly legal to follow unjust orders slowly, badly, or inefficiently

[aayakashii]

was testing something out for an animation project. check out this thing

[aayakashii]

rant

Hey guys. I think you all know how much I am appreciative of how most of you are so supportive and sweet to me and everything I write. I made many great friends, like Lin, Mel, Shu, Rot, Mal and Naya, who I can only hope I can support as much as they support me in their own endeavors, no matter what they do.

That being said, please remember I am NOT being paid to write. I am happy to share my ideas with you all, but I am not a machine.

Yeah, it had been 8 months since 'maybe' was updated, and I get that it frustrated some people, but it's still something I do because I love tkdb despite all its problems and I love the fandom.

It's so disheartening to have spent so long trying to make something cohesive (and btw I am NOT happy with that chapter lol), only to get comments from readers that just say "next part". This isn't an isolated problem either, it's what has been happening for a while now.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind my friends asking for a next part because they always bless me with so many detailed comments pointing out what they liked and it's so much fun to write for people that INTERACT with me like that.

I also dont mind when people ask for more after ACTUALLY giving me a feedback on how they liked the story!

But if all you can say is "where's the next part?" please keep it to yourself. I'm happy you like my writing so much that you want more, but I'm not a machine. And trying to appease to requests was how I burned out, so I won't do that anymore.

PLEASE respect your fandom writers. And if you're not my friend or if you can't/don't want to fulfill those simple requests, don't cross those boundaries.

Thanks.

Guess who I struggle with most

A: somehow, Lyca. So mostly his outfit is based on his casual fits

Im too tired to add anything else here, so I will tmrw there's better not be any typo this time
