((Demo AU Blog! Go Look!))

((Mod here. Life's still being stupid (almost a year later too!), so hiatus isn't done yet. I'll save a brief update for a later post.

But I was in the raocow tag the other day, and came across this other Demo AU blog.

It's an alternate universe where Demo and her siblings are living a normal life in a suburbian area on the planet of Demonia, where the species of space demons live.

While they aren't purely an ask blog like this, where questions are directly answered, they sort of based in on Homestuck where the story is driven by user suggestion and asks. (Homestuck's driven by that? *hasn't read Homestuck*)

They only started a short while ago, but I'm hoping that some of my followers will be interested in going over and sending them some asks and suggestions. The blog has started out nicely with lovely art and is quite interesting, and has a nice twist on the whole ask blog concept.

Go follow them and send them things!))

((Merry Christmas Everyone!))

((I know I'm on hiatus, but I thought I should wish my followers and anyone else who stops by a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Hopefully you guys enjoyed your presents, friends, family, and whatever else you did.

Meanwhile, my roommate and I had Christmas pizza.

Classy.

May everything be better in the New Year.))

((Brb, life and everything being a bag of dicks, lawl))

((Have a 'fuck this, I'm out' post.

Okay, that makes it sound a lot worse than what it actually is.

I hate to do this right now... I really, really hate to do this right now. I'm leaving on hiatus again, and the ask box is closing until I return.

They say that the first year you move out on your own is the worst. I'd be inclined to agree.

Stuffing under a read more for personal shit. If you are curious, proceed.

Have a cute conure holding a finger. I appreciate you guys.

Seriously. <3

I recently found a job. and am currently working almost full time (if they could actually give me the damn hours), which has decreased my free time. However, that's not the problem.

My health is shit right now; I'm absolutely tired all the time, and my memory is fucking atrocious (along with other symptoms, but you don't really need to know all of them). Working to keep myself and my roommate afloat is taking up a lot of my time, but mostly draining me of what energy I have. I just don't have the energy to run this blog right now.

And don't even get me started on trying to find a god damn doctor for this bullshit. So far the word 'fruitless' comes to mind for that.

I also have a bunch of other stresses, which really isn't helping that either.

But I'm sick of worrying about this blog, and I hate just leaving it without saying something. I keep losing track of days, and kept meaning to post something about it, but I kept forgetting.

I'm not closing this blog. I absolutely love running it, but I'm really not up for it right now. I'm going to put it on the back burner while I get my life and my health sorted out, because fuck.

Once again, I sincerely apologize for leaving so much this year.

I just...

*sigh*

Thanks for sticking around guys. It means a lot to me.

((Error Fix))

((Well, turns out I forgot to add Calleoca to the character list. I just fixed that right now, if you want to go look.))

Kood: I took care of Jowey in the Castle of Absolutely No Significance Whatsoever.

But, I still have some...

*ahem*

...unfinished business to take care of.

*hushed tone* None of you saw that secret photo, got it?

I can dazzle them with my platforming prowess yet...

((Character Page is Up and Running!))

((I finally finished the character personality page!

It currently has a description of everyone's respective appearance and personality. In the future, I will be adding their picture, but for now a simple description of their appearance is there instead.

I am still working on Kood's page, as I need to re-watch the Drama Mistery series for any extra info I can find, and am slowly working on that (he has such little characterization, seriously). For now, his page is not linked.

I made this with the intent of having a spoiler-free reference for people to read. I did put the sources on a different page that link to where I got the information, and put a few warnings for spoilers. If you go to the links and spoil yourself, it's all on you.

Have a link to the completed page. If I made any typos on it, please let me know so I can fix it!

I hope you guys enjoy it!~))

Garish: Good on you for recognizing THE GREATEST sibling.

Everyone's so far down on the "Not As Great As Me" scale that they aren't even on the scale! That's an obvious fact!

((Happy Belated Halloween!))

((I completely missed posting here on Halloween. Oh well.

Happy belated Halloween to everyone! Hopefully you either got lots of candy or just enjoyed your times with friends, or whatever you did.

I would've drawn something, but I was busy this week with job interview stuff and a doctor's visit that I didn't even think of it. Hence the late update as well (working on it right now!).

Maybe if I'm feeling better around Christmas, I'll have the energy to draw something Christmas related.

Once again, Happy belated Halloween!))

Iris: Very well, thank you for asking.

We're very close, and always enjoy each other's company.

((Back... with Glasses))

((That really didn't even make sense.

After taking a week or so to have my eyes adjust to my glasses, I can finally wear them normally without having to give my eyes a break. My equilibrium was thrown off, and made me motion sick because of the kind of lenses I need. It was really weird until I got used to them.

As I promised, I'm re-opening the ask box. I finished the answer I was working on during the headaches, and have queued for Tuesday.

Regarding the character page, I haven't forgotten about it. I know I still need to do it, and I'm not going back on it. I keep forgetting to work on it, but I will eventually get it done. *quietly rages over memory*

Thanks for putting up with my dumbness!!))

[askdemoandfriends]

((I Can See Again!! Not Like I Couldn't Before...))

((But now, I can see without the mind-numbing headaches and eye strain.

I'll be returning in about a week.. My eyes need a short while to adjust to everything.

Hooray!))

spookdenied replied to your post: ((Good News Everyone!))

it’s a good thing to hear that it’s nothing too serious! enjoy your break for now

I was fairly certain it was my eyes, but the tiny paranoid part of me that was worried it was something else, was really relieved.

I'll try to enjoy as much of it as I can. Hooray for zoomed in text and partial headaches and generally avoiding stuff that strains the eyes~

[askdemoandfriends]

((Good News Everyone!))

((I went and saw the optometrist today. As I suspected, my eyes are going slightly. She said that if I didn't want to, I didn't need to get glasses, but with my headaches and eyestrain, I really need them, even if they are just a weak prescription.

Got everything ordered up. I asked her if she could possibly get them in a bit sooner, and she said they might make it in as early as Wednesday, but it can take up to a week and a half to come in.

So whenever they come in, I can do stuff again! So now you know. I'll post when they come in!

Hooray!))

takomomo replied to your post: ((Um... Temporary Break?? Again? Nooo...))

Take it easy, friend! Your health is more important, okay? We can wait. >w<

((Aww, thanks. <3 I'm going to see an optometrist on Friday, so at least I'll know right away!

It's kind of frustrating that I came back a few weeks ago only to have to take another break so soon, y'know?))

[askdemoandfriends]

((Um... Temporary Break?? Again? Nooo...))

((This is the year where everything shits on everything.

Lately, when I went to draw asks up, I keep getting tension headaches with light, sound and movement sensitivity. At first it happened occasionally and I could fend them off with painkillers, but it's gotten to the point now where I have a constant small headache, and if I try to draw (or focus too hard on) anything, I get a blistering tension headache that doesn't want to go away with painkillers. I got through half of one ask and had to stop three separate times.

I'm going to go talk to an optometrist. I haven't gotten my eyes checked in years, so it's a good place to start. It's possible my vision is deteriorating and I don't even realize it.

If that's not the case, then I will see a doctor and see what's up.

Either way, I'm taking a temporary break until I get this sorted out. If it's my eyes, I should be back pretty shortly. If not, I don't know.

I'm really sorry about this, but it's become borderline impossible to draw.

I'm also closing the ask box until I come back, so it doesn't get bombarded with questions while I'm away. I WILL be opening it once I return, however.

I'll post again whenever I know what's going on.))

[askdemoandfriends]

Ask Box has Opened!

((Oh hey. There's one big question that I need to finish, but other then that the ask box is empty.

I will, however, be not taking questions for the whole group any more though, simply because they take a lot of time to draw up, and I do draw slowly. A couple of characters are okay, though. (I hope I can lift that rule in the future. Being slow sucks.)

I will delete any questions that ask every one something, starting now.

I will get the big question done, and post it as an extra in the near future.

Other then that, come fill up the ask box with questions!))

Sheath: Antarctica?! Sounds like fun! I don't really see myself as dress person though...

Will they be serving punch??
