Technoblade: Man, imagine not winning a 1 v 3. Couldn't be me.

Every MCC with Technoblade was memorable, but MCC 5 will always stand out in my mind thanks to Techno's infamous 1 v 3 fight! Here are some highlights from that event in honor of the man himself.

Happy Birthday, Technoblade! Thanks for all the laughs.

Hello! I just discovered your blog and I immediately became captivated by your webcomic, but I'm unsure where to read all of it. I know it's on Webtoons, but I can see it hasn't been updated for a while, and you still post about it.

Are your physical novels just prints of the webcomic? Are they a continuation? Is the story complete? Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

Glad you found me and are enjoying my comic!

It's only on webtoons, and the story is not complete yet! We're 2/3 of the way through right now. It's currently on hiatus, and it's scheduled to come back in about 2 months!

I'll explain why it's been so long if you're curious, but also for my followers who might also be wondering about it under the cut. Sorry, it's pretty much just me complaining haha

I took a month off I took 2 months to get the books printed I took a month to prepare my next comic and I took 2 months to write the rest of the series (I knew the character arcs I wanted, but not the time periods or mysteries!!!) I've been working on actual episodes since then

I had to take some time off because of some pretty extreme burnout due to the sheer amount of work it was to draw over 800 pages and write 6 complete stories in a year and a half... I was getting sick almost weekly due to the overwork, it was really really bad honestly. I was having to work 60+ hours every week just to keep up...

The nature of the comic itself is also difficult... Each of the arcs is a complete, self contained story which can be read (ideally) without context, and my arcs need to be about 10-13 episodes each... And since I have an exact number of episodes to work with, it's even harder.

It takes a ton of planning and a ton of refinement, and working week to week with no breaks I was forced to put out second or even first drafts, so I just wasn't happy with the work I was doing... And to do that for the rest of the series? I wouldn't be proud of the work I did.

Plus... To be entirely honest, webtoon has treated me quite badly IN MY OPINION... They deprioritized me before I launched (I had to beg for more promotion, I'm not exaggerating), they outright denied me the opportunity to even ask for a raise, I don't make any money on fast pass and they pay me less than my partner makes working at trader joes. My first editor left me completely hanging, my second editor (who I loved) was fired... And they told me I wouldn't get a third season before my first season even finished. So it was just repeatedly completely demoralizing.

I'm sorry it has taken so long, it'll have been 10 months by the time I come back. But I realized... I won't get promotion either way. I won't get more episodes either way. I won't get more money either way. So to finish everything, to make it feel good, to make it something I'm proud of, I chose to take longer to make it better.

I am fully aware I will lose a significant amount of my readership for this and it might genuinely affect my career moving forward. But it's what I had to do! So I'm sticking to my guns on it, and I'm confident long term it'll be worth it. It never could have been this good if I didn't take this much time.

I've been meaning to make fanart for @beannary 's The Little Prince au and this song radiates Donnie energy to me, so I combined the two. It isn't a perfect fit, but I thought it was fun.

It also kinda looks like a magazine cover, which wasn't intended but it's pretty fun.

WIP Wednesday! Excerpt from: as of yet untitled Link's Awakening Timeloop Fic.

The fic's basic premise is that, upon the ending of Link's Awakening, Link refuses to accept it and sets Koholint into a timeloop, determined to fix a supposedly unfair, unhappy ending. Of course, it is not that simple.

This fic is giving me quite a lot of trouble and has been for some time, but nonetheless I have good hope that I'll be able to finish it at some point and am overall quite happy with how it's turning out! I haven't ever tried to write a timeloop before and it's been a while since I tried my hand at second person POV, so both of these are fun challenges!

This fic is a one-shot that I'm estimating to be in the 7-8k wordcount range. I'm hoping to be able to write a counterpart to this fic from Marin's POV, both becuase that was the original plan when I conceived of a Koholint timeloop fic and because I think Marin's POV could successfully conclude the story in a way this fic as a standalone never could. However with how long this fic is taking and how much trouble it's giving me I'm not sure I'm entirely willing to commit to writing another one of these just yet.

Real nice to see you on redbubble! Do you think your followers are aware that if they buy ten of your stickers at a time, they get them for half price? That's like 10 stickers for $20! Whoah!

:O Amazing!

I could certify so many of my favorite memer streamers that way! For half the cost!

happy earth day !! here are some longan fruits my grandfather grew :)

he is one of my biggest inspirations, nurturing my curiosity about the world and a love for the environment/nature in me, since I was young 🌱

his house is actually a jungle full of plants (and fishes),, i have learnt SO MUCH from him, and i would be a very different person without him! 💚
