The idea that my Rook will be an Antivan Crow except with a British or American accent is SO fucking funny to me. Like just know I will be headcanoning that shit right out the window but at the same time laughing my ass off every time they speak.
I love the gilded so much! I just reread it and aaaaaaaaaa. This game has a chokehold on me and my brain space. I love Ayre, give me slow burns give me angst.
Hey! Thank you for your message, I was so happy to see it. 💜
I'm really looking forward to diving into more of Ayre's particularly angsty storyline with the new Camp chat scenes in the next update. Theirs & Jolenn's take a little longer to develop because they're tied pretty closely with the central plot, but I think that just makes it tastier. 💜💜
In other news, I'm working on getting the update out as soon as I can. I wanted it to come out in spring, but things have not gone well in my life recently! They're still not going well, tbh.
For you, anon, and the others reading this: A little preview of the updated character arts I'm working on for the Chapter 2 launch.
M & F versions of Nex and Wren will be posted with the Chapter 2 update announcement, and then updated Ayre and Jolenn will follow when I finish them.
Wren got a bigger appearance update than I think anyone else did... I decided to change their hairstyle to something that matches their personality a bit better, and I expanded their wardrobe to get away from just drawing them exclusively in flannels.
The full(-ish) body versions of these will be included with the Chapter 2 update. 💜
wanting to talk to people is so fucking embarrassing. literally hi it's me again I wanted to have a conversation with you because I think you're fun to talk to. oh god you can just fucking kill me if you want sorry

Placeholder names can quickly turn into forever names. Picking name(s) on a whim can lead to great things, or it can become your worst nightmare (😁).
Your writing has value. Yes, even the most inadequate of writing. You don't have to boast or even like everything you've ever written, but even the most questionable of writing will have contributed to your growth as a storyteller. Cherish it for what it is.
You can take a break. It is absolutely okay.
First drafts are scary. But you know what's more scary? Not having a draft at all.
Using clichés or ''overdone'' tropes will not kill your story. Firstly, tropes are building blocks. Secondly, humans actively search to consume stories revolving around these tropes.
Write your heart out. Boast about your writing. Boast about your friends' and fellow writers' writing. Everyone deserves recognition, even you, from within your own heart. (Sorry. That's really cheesy. But it's true).
Seriously people the lack of fandom interaction these days makes me genuinely depressed, it never used to be like this, makes me wonder what's the point of coming online to do anything anymore.
