Things that happen in Dawntrail that sound like shitposts:

You are invited to meddle in the affairs of a major political power. These events with extremely serious ramifications for global politics include gardening, animal herding, mountain climbing, and a bake-off.

Night City travels diagonally through time and fuses with a small town in Arizona.

An uplifting Hollywood movie pop-gospel song about unity plays over a montage of you and your friends building a bomb.

You down a suspiciously beaver-themed energy drink and briefly go super saiyan.

The temporally anomalous catboy dad deepthroats two scoops of nothing-flavored ice cream in an attempt to ease the tension at his work friend's family reunion. Somehow, this actually achieves the desired effect.

An AI-generated ghost attempts to burn all of the world's people and resources to extend the life of their metaverse Disneyland for other AI-generated ghosts. In response, you proceed to fight a robotic biblically-accurate angel inside their mind palace.

Dead baby cave.

Yes, for a while.

The Scions don't know Corrain is only sixteen when they recruit him until- well. Until after the Bloody Banquet, really. At which point he's seventeen. He doesn't *outright* lie, but he never corrects the assumption that he's just baby-faced-due-to-being-a-trans-man and 20 or so.

Thancred and Minfilia are the only two who know his actual age before then - and of the two, Thancred gets Lahabrea'd about two days after he finds out.

Does your WoL lie about their age?

Happy 3 years of Fragments!!

What's dressed in black, but has sparkles and rainbows all over the place? Yes Vivi's ass, but also-

The comic has a new permanent home:

fragments.gay

^ all you need to type to start reading it RIGHT MEOW

I find that a good name makes your project easy to memorize and talk about. So, when I learned about .gay domains and was lucky to snag fragments.gay, I knew that the stars aligned and that I finally had no excuse to delay making my own site. I also needed a secure place for the ~hotter~ episodes (which debut in 2026 by my estimation) that I wouldn't be able to post on my regular platforms that already clutch their pearls at a male nipple.

Two other cool things: larger pages and THE STARRY CURSOR. Finally the comic can be experienced in the way I've always intended.

There are some wip elements. Comments move in mysterious ways. They DO get posted, however, you've gotta access an episode from the archive to see comments. I'm a complete beginner at this, so bear with me as I figure things out.

The third anniversary project's more you-oriented than me, now you don't have to hunt down the unwieldy long links. Fun and snappy address! No need for an account! The comic's more accessible than ever.

Oh and there's a secret that rewards those who click around and carefully scroll through things. Something you'll see in episodes 76-77, which are yet to exist at the time of posting.

Whether you've been around for 3+ years, or just found me recently, thanks for sticking with me (stick to me like carameeeee- *gets kicked*)

3 years is nothing to sneeze at. Due to the steady comic update schedule, I'd never felt the time pass so… normally in my entire life, in fact it's grounding me in reality, I never forget what day it is anymore. My time's filled with work, but the happy and satisfying kind. I need something to keep my brain occupied, and Fragments does it rather well. Thanks for supporting such a massive endeavor.

Right, the s word- shameless plug time! But the anniversary only happens once a year, so I've gotta.

We're close to 500 patrons. Surely we'll eventually get there, but what if now? Pretty please with an emet-selch on top? This crowdfunding's contingent on the "crowd" because I'm asking only for $1. The comic goes on thanks to the many of you willing to chip in.

Can't use patreon? Kofi is also a thing!

Got no money? You know the drill: the word of mouth is free and as important as ever. I'm eternally grateful for each and every shoutout, rec and review. I know that I'm making a damn good thing, you know it, but someone else doesn't. Yet. And YOU can fix that!

i'm always in favor of adding more conditional dialogue to xiv, be it based on race or job or whatever else, but more than anything else i want fandaniel to have an extra line if you're wearing amon's hat. the more distressed he is about you having it, the better

Whenever the topic of G'raha comes up with Rammbroes, I just picture this happening in my head every single time.

I think this pop-up is still my favorite part of the Lahabrea fight if I've avoided death up until then.

Thank you game, I couldn't tell I was dead.

For the ficwip fairytale bang I had the delight and honor of illustrating for @azems-familiar ‘s ffxiv fic— do give it a read!

[sunderedazem]

and what i thought i knew has been swallowed by the truth

written by @azems-familiar & illustrated by @teleport-warning a Final Fantasy XIV fic; G'raha Tia | Crystal Exarch/Warrior of Light

Once upon a time, there was a god who wasn't a god, and a sky full of Light, and a princess who wasn't a princess, and a magic Tower with a secret.

When Seika Valeriant runs away from the goddess Hydaelyn - whose cause she had sworn to serve with her hero's gifts - she doesn't have a plan of any sort beyond the desire to get away and the knowledge that she can never go home to the kingdom she was raised in. Stumbling on an ancient, rumor-shrouded mage's tower made of crystal in the ruins of an abandoned city is a stroke of luck she doesn't expect. That the Tower known for the simple fact that no one has ever set foot inside it and lived to tell the tale is both alive and willing to protect her, she would almost call a godsend…if that didn't mean invoking the very force she fled from.

But the Tower's soul, who calls himself only the Exarch, seems to know something about Hydaelyn, and the world itself, that Seika doesn't, and his reluctance to speak of the oddities she keeps finding in her explorations of the Tower is a constant source of tension. And when that tension breaks, it could spell doom not just for Seika, but for the Exarch and his Tower as well…
