Baby Blue in da HOUSE!

Not gonna lie, when I finally got to read his POV in the story, I was beyond shocked- and pleased.

Gotta love a not so innocent blueberry hehe

Something I love about the story is the uniqueness of being able to read the different point of views of some of the skeletons. We get to know more in-depth of their thoughts vs just their actions!

Go read "The House Next Door" on AO3 by @battlemaiden13

I call it getting my spark back

Take him. He's a quiet, shy , anxious bean. Coffee bean~

I adore this story so much. I just found it and I am so excited. It's so well written, all the scenes and feelings and characters. You get to FEEL what is happening around you.

Do give it a go. if ya like...i liked it

Am I so excited to finally be sharing this story that I made a cover image for it? You bet I am!

More info under the cut :D

A Lovely House of Bones is a story very much inspired by @tyranttortoise and her wonderful "Skeletons Squatters and the Landlady" because goddamn am I a sucker for tropes and found family and slow burns, and she inspired me to write my own take on the concept.

Chapter 1 will go up on Saturday July 29th, and I plan on releasing new chapters every other week going forward, so there will be something of a consistent update schedule (fingers crossed!)

I've been rolling this story around in my head for a long time, so it's so exciting to finally be putting it out into the world. I really hope you guys enjoy it! ♥

Progress

HELLO HELLO FRANS COMMUNITY!

I'm glad to announce the animation I am working on since 03/30/2023 is about 75 percent done.

I'm almost there. I just need a little help with some encouragement. Please help me reblog and like this post. If you can follow me as well that would be big motivation.

It's been a slow burn so let me know how many frans lovers are out there that would be excited for the finished project!

In the meantime, I'll post a few backgrounds I've have worked on just to show a snipbit of it.

I didn't post any frans yet because I'm saving best for last and I want a certain special creator to be proud of me once the project is done. So let's not alert them just yet. I hope I can finish it before the end of this month and hopefully it will not dissappoint.

Edit: Oh I know I've dissappeared for a while. OPS lol. But I'm back! Once this animation is done I'll be feeding you guys more frans. Trust.
