I’m in a math class again don’t get me started on reading. Also math strategies are gonna fry my brain, the funniest thing is I’m considered the smartest student in whatever class I’m in I have no idea I hate it and especially in these instances because everyone think they got their answers wrong because I must be right 😭😭😭 please just let me be a dumb kid it’s too much pressure

Redraw of my first design for the plains au, I definitely would’ve drawn her with her regalia but the anatomy turned out too good to cover it up. Should note that the princesses are not the embodiment of the sun and moon but their horses. They’re just lil star horses or literally just referenced them off of parhelia. Heavily influenced by space in native stories or like the "star world" but it’s literally just space and what happens up there.

As I’m currently rendering like crazy on a plains au piece enjoy some old hanwinyanpa art

Please pray and raise awareness for Cole Brings Plenty, a Lakota actor and student. He was found on april 5th. Whoever killed him also cut off his braids. This is such an awful and cruel act of violence, im having a hard time finding the words.

April 8th Rising Hearts has organized Braids for Cole, so please wear your hair in braids and bring awareness so that Cole and his family can get justice.

Please post about this anywhere you can. I dont typically talk about serious issues or at least not often, but more people need to hear about this.

Cole Brings Plenty was a Native American actor, and was recently found murdered with his hair intentionally cut.

On Monday, April 8th, if you can/are willing please show support by wearing braids snd posting about and sharing others posts.

I am curious, what are the two bumps/ dots on the arms of Magaska Wi and Wigmunkē?

You know I’ve been like keeping this a secret ever since I posted their designs and like only one person knew what they were. So I never said what they were because culturally you aren’t supposed to ask or brag what they are but they’re flesh offering scars that are common around here. Please don’t ask about the ceremony just know if you ever see them irl to know that people did a great thing or over came thing in life. 👍🩷

Me when I’m actually just a silly flabebe. Basically poor little flabebe’s mom dies and she’s sad and almost drowns herself trying to take care of underwater flowers in the winter and she meets her twin half siblings

I just found your blog and I want you to know that your art is so good! The character design of ur MLP gijinkas and the composition of those Pokémon scenes are so delicious!

Also, as a language and linguistics enthusiast, I really enjoy the fact you incorporated your language in the MLP AU! I’m unsure of what language that is, because it looks like what I remember Lakota looks like, and your bio does say ur Lakota, but it also says you are Arikara, and both of those languages have similar orthographies so it could be either. I’m not really familiar with Great Plains languages, I’m better read on Aridoamerican and Oasisamerican languages.

Anyways, I really hope I can see more of your art on my dash on the future. Best wishes!

I use two orthographies for Lakota but it’s pretty easy telling the difference once you notice them with Sahnish(Arikara) especially when they are in two vastly different language families. With orthography Sahnish will double up vowels "ii,uu,aa,oo,ee" and those are just vowels the universal guttural is just X and we have whispered sounds that are indicated by capitalized letters and we have rolled rs 😭 but my dads like just say it with a d and it works somehow. Most of my characters especially my human mlp one all have Lakota names. My sonas and bot cat rarity are the ones who just have Arikara names and my Arikara ocs too. I was named in Arikara so I just keep my sonas named in Arikara 🥺🥰 since I especially feel not many people know about us.
