Follow up... it's been 2 hours. I have taken a total of three breaks while writing Chp 33 to get water and chug it. I think I'm improving on my ability to consistently write scenes like this without taking excessive breaks with the guilty fucking feeling that the chief gods themselves would strike me down if they read this. I will take an extended break though to color in the line art of the *SPOILER* art because I've given up on trying to make the cloth folds make sense. Maybe in the future I will return to it and be like "no no no, THIS is the correct way it goes" when I've discovered how this shit really works.

SGotG Stuff

Combined Chapters 31+32 into a longer Chp 31 and combined Chp 33+34 to create the new, longer Chp 32 since all the scenes associated are shortly after one another in these respective new chapters. Chp 33 is going to be another spicy one. 👀 It's been a while so I'm gonna give ya'll a treat for when Chp 33 finally gets posted. Finally one of the tags I posted with this fic will come to fruition.

I walked to work today.. The weather was okayish, not as hot as most days. You may be wondering WHY I walked to work.

Because this was a very special delivery and I didn't want my sister who is currently in town to be like "WTF YOU GET THIS TIME?" Time to take a peak inside!

First thing one should always find when opening a box is the Millennium Ring. There is no other correct order. But wait.. there's something else under the ring... (≖⩊≖)

We always new Marik was a bottom. 🤣😂🤣😂

Marik's box may be bigger but Bakura will always be the TOP king. ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧ May do a stream one of these weekends to unbox them and build my Winged Dragon of Ra Model kit. For now the boys will have to fight over who gets to taste freedom first.

Today was literally a blur so I can't remember how much of Chp 32 I wrote.. but I did complete it and get right into Chp 33 which I finished not too long ago. End of Chp 33 raises the stakes with a somewhat familiar character and unfamiliar character all rolled into one! :> For now sleeb time tho.. My body is ready for it.

Extremely mentally draining 1st visit with sister and the fam over at dad's place complete... now I just want to stay at my place for the rest of the week because her two youngest are just big yappers at me and I am but a meager introvert that avoids questions that I can't understand properly. They literally sound like they're speaking gibberish but they're 5 and 6 years old. Her two oldest didn't have this gibberish speak problem at that age and it just sends me into panic overdrive mode because it stresses me out not being able to understand them but everyone else apparently can? I also tried to consult artist friend on folds for the *SPOILER* art but even they're at a loss and told me to just photograph myself but it is extremely hard to do this alone. So many takes and I still didn't get the right angle or the right posture OR the right lay out of the cloth.

(╥﹏╥)

Tried looking for a 3D drawing program that can just lay cloth on a 3D posed model and replicate the folds but the only thing I found is unity and I have no effing clue how to use this program other than it's building blocks function. So when the *SPOILER* art gets released and everything looks fucking bad it's just me and not knowing how clothes work because I don't have a model to pose for me nor do I own a long robe NOR can I be NOT stressed enough to sit my ass on my bed in the RIGHT position, pose, with the cloth draped EXACTLY how I want it for 100+ takes. I'll likely reiterate this once it gets posted. -crying-

I'm so tired ya'll.. I was only there for like 3 hours and I already wanted to bail at the 30 min mark.

I am considering Chp 32 finished. It was basically a segment detailing how one character got *redacted* and can now *redacted*.

ᕙ( •̀ ᗜ •́ )ᕗ I'm honestly just happy this segment is over so we can return to our regularly scheduled *redacted*! (≖⩊≖)

[ravij]

Almost 1,250 words tonight on Chp 32 of SGotG.. Not sure how I feel about it but it's a necessary Chp to explain how *redacted* gets *redacted* and progress through the story.

Anyway tomorrow is a work day and my sister also flies in from Argentina... Going to possibly be very little time to work on the story compared to before. And Art is a no go if my sister and her family come over. We'll see how the week goes.

[ravij]

THE BOYS ARE IN CHICAGO! Hopefully they arrive this upcoming week cause my work place is closed the following week. Ó^Ò

I swear to the gods this is not an impulse buy. I saw it for pre-orders last year and I was extremely tempted but didn't follow through. I thought about getting the Millennium Rod but - Fuck it I thought about it after pausing while typing this.

I am investing in fully problematic relationships. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗᕕ( ᐕ )ᕗ

[ravij]

I've done as much as I can with the *SPOILER* art until my friend can get back to me. Then it's color time!

(✧v✧)

Yugioh is alive and well in FFXIV. (˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

[ravij]

Been hard at work on the *SPOILER* art for SGotG and I'm almost done with the line art.... but I'm going to have to consult my friend on cloth folds because I don't think this shit is right.

(˘ŏ_ŏ)

But COLORS soon! Yaaas! (at least just flats because this bich don't know how to shade, I'll TRY! but I can't guarantee perfection.)

SGotG: Praise Chp 27! It's here!

Chp 27 of Sacred Game of the Gods is here! I got distracted discovering new music and almost forgot to post this at 11 my time when I said I was gonna do it. Enjoy Marik and his shadow for a bit. ���(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡ We are getting closer to the reveal of the *SPOILER* art!

[ravij]

Tomorrow will be a Russian roulette of what I can get done in terms of SGotG. Will I work on the shadows engravings? The *SPOILER* art? or will I actually sit still and make the fingers type words for chp 32?

It's a mystery.

I infact did NOT work on Chp 32 after I said I was.. instead I've been busy "carving" out translations for Y.Marik/Y.Malik's back engravings since for my AU they're different than Marik/Malik's given he was separated and bound into a clay effigy. You'll find out more of that event in Chp 31. :> But tomorrow Chp 27 goes up! I don't have anything to show yet of the shadows carvings as I need to figure out how to fill in more space on it before I'm ready to reveal what this soulless little shit has on his back. As far as the *SPOILER* art goes.. I have no chill rn on adding clothes...

SGotG Changes Chp 24

I made some changes to Chp 24's beginning to better connect with something in Chp 31.

Here's is the old text:

Vs the new text line:

With the rod in hand for protection he continued in only to have his face twist into confusion as he found the creature huddled upon the floor as though a simpering child weeping over their punishment. It’s bare back to the vault's entrance as marking’s not like Marik’s were engraved in its clay flesh long ago. I'm also working on getting something drawn to show the differences in their back markings.

SGotG Rambling

This art is taking a while... （´∇｀''）I'm going to go work on Chp 32 as a break. After I post Chp 27 tomorrow we'll still have about 2 more chapters until I need to have it ready.. The art might get delayed, who knows since my sister is coming in on Monday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ IF the art does get delayed and we reach beyond Chp 29, I will post better, more full teasers of progress on the art. Keep in mind this thing has a few pieces to it. I still need to get with my artist who did Baås-tiset for some additional pieces. For those who missed it we reached the 150 hit mark and I have delivered on my promise of another, bigger teaser of the *SPOILER* art. I also posted Chp 25+26 on Thursday of SGotG so be sure to catch up before tomorrows Chp 27 get's released!

[ravij]

You guys win! SGotG Further Teaser Art!

155 Hits. We went up 6 Hits since I mentioned I'd drop another teaser of the *SPOILER* art and I am a creeture of my word! (ㅅ´ ˘ `)

This is MORE than I should be giving away cause we are about 3 chapters from this being relevant. BUT it gets hinted at in Chp 27 which I will post tomorrow!
