Went to the ren faire as my dnd character! She's a level four wizard I've been playing for almost two years.

My first self drafted top! I learned so much while doing this that now I want to make another one just to compare.

Glados is finally done! Thank you again to @rubyrevenger for letting me use their awesome pixel art as a pattern.

I convinced my girlfriend to read the first little bit of homestuck so they would know what I was going on about on 4/13 and now they're like 300 pages in and have read the entirety of sweet bro and hella jeff. I feel I've committed a great sin.

“Oh man D&D wizards are so funny, fireball haha” 

I can’t even imagine the pain you would have to go through as a wizard. In a world where magic is given, whether by birth or by song or by the gods you worship or the gods you don’t, imagine the strength it would take to spit in their face and Learn. The length and breadth of your power is the ink in your hands and the dust in your hair and the pages of your spell book sewn together and it is infinite. You have memorised so many spells and transcribed even more. At the end of your long rests you take a step back, look at your friends who were granted their magic and you think “they have not carried this brand of pain. I hope they never have to.” You were judged by the gods and found unworthy, you remade yourself in the spellcaster’s image and they told you that you were sullied but hey, at least the flimsy paper book you carry with you has meaning. Or something like that.

This is an entire month late but she's still tumblrwoman. To me.

Hi! I really like your Glados pixel art icon from a few weeks back. Would you mind if I cross stitched it and posted it? (with credit)

You can totally do that! That sounds really cool :D

I had an old t-shirt which was worn out around the shoulders so I cut the sleeves off and refinished the armholes.

[purplegladiatrix]

Not what I usually post but I want to cast find familiar in my main dnd campaign and asked my dm if I could have a tiny bear instead of one of the listed creatures, so here are the tiny bear stats. Made with this statblock generator.

Sweet mother, I cannot weave -- slender Aphrodite has overcome me with longing for a girl

-Sappho, fragment 102

This is the first of five panels of a project I'm doing for my girlfriend's upcoming birthday. Each panel is going to have a symbol of a story from our relationship and a quote about sapphic love.

The rings in this panel represent a joke from before we ever got together. I only like the lemon and orange starbursts and they only like the strawberry and cherry ones, so we said we should be "platonic starburst wives."

Stitching is done on Quirrel and Tiso!! Planning on binding the edges and framing it on Monday.

[purplegladiatrix]

My life has been a nightmare from a craft perspectively lately but I did go to the ren faire for the first time! The skirt, the flower crown, and the wings were all made by me, though the wings were painted by my girlfriend.

[purplegladiatrix]

My next WIP: Quirrel and Tiso from Hollow Knight! I don't actually know anything about this game but my girlfriend loves it and this is a present for them. I switched to using two strands of thread for this project and I'm really happy with it so far.

[purplegladiatrix]

My first ever project is finally finished! I'm both happy with how it turned out and excited to start new things

[purplegladiatrix]

All done! I just need to iron it and bind the edges with something more permanent than masking tape.
