Hello it's the anon who wished good gacha luck for you again dgidtid I have come back because I just realised. In the haunted house post. Nxx goes to an abandoned house that is rumoured to be haunted. That's. That's just Skadi and I have no idea if it was planned but if it wasn't holy shit you accidentally got the entire setup of Skadi right.

Also I'm dying at don't think too much about it because mihoyo's reason was just all of them have their own extremely convenient unrelated reason to be in Skadi which really just feels like the writers also going don't think about it too hard. Honestly made rereading the post way funnier than it was originally.

🌌 (has this emoji been taken?)

hello again!! the emoji is not yet taken and thus i'll refer to you/tag you as MilkyWay!anon, if thats alright w u? hehe....like the chocolate bar.....

GENUINELY THAT WAS NOT PLANNED KFJBGKJDF. when i wrote that haunted house hc, i had not looked at the details of upcoming events. i knew skadi was gonna happen, but not that there was gonna be spooky mansion exploration. the nature of me writing is that i throw pasta on the wall and sometimes i hit bullseye skdjbfksdj

and i PERSONALLY find the Oh So Convenient Coincidental Reasons To Be Here to be the best fuckin thing. ive seen a bunch of ppl complain about how it's transparent or too silly, which is valid like yea this wont satisfy all preferences, but i LOVE IT. I LOVE SILLY SHIT!!! one of the things i love about tot is that it can get hella serious and dark and painful but also it has moments where it doesnt take itself too seriously. dont think about it too hard, and im not, im enjoying the ride

makes me want just endless fanfics where the team are all at the same place for increasingly absurd reasons

The NXX Team Run Into Each Other at IKEA

The NXX Team All Find Themselves Falling Into The Same Ditch In The Forest

The NXX Team, Independently and Without Any Collaborative Planning, End Up At A Furry Convention

up to you what everybody's reasons are for any of these. lord knows that it i think about it for long enough, i'll end up actually writing a fic KJBKJFGS

Kintsugi: 2019 Year-Ender

kintsugi (uncountable)

The Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold or similar material, highlighting the cracks instead of disguising them. (Wiktionary)

Nothing can describe the year better than kintsugi. The description cannot fully encapsulate the beauty of the output. A once broken pot mended by gold sounds impractical, but beautiful.

The achievements this year were the gold that filled the cracks. Today, its time to highlight those golden moments.

Improvement Game

This year, I was far better than what I was years ago.

From 2012 - 2018, my art slowly crawled up in terms of improvement. It was subtle, but it was there. To the untrained impatient eye (like mine) it felt painful to walk the slow pace. It seemed like nothing would be able to give that one push to move faster.

It was, until March rolled around.

A simple drawing that referenced a photo taken launched me into learning about color theory, one of the first fundamentals of art I learned. After that, my art went a full 180. It got better and better. It seems embarrassing to admit that I've studied my fundamentals after 6 years of drawing, but its the best embarrassment I'm proud of doing. My drawings got near-instantly better. It produced the improvement I've always wished for. Nothing can ever match the happiness of finishing one piece, comparing it with the one before it, and seeing the leap. Kids, please use the internet as much as you can. Its full of resources.

Not only that, but reconnecting with an old friend changed a toxic mindset plaguing art. It was more humanistic, in a sense. Selfish to some, in a way, yes, but self-love always starts with... yourself. It was a tough mindset to rewire, but the effects have been positive so far. Thank you so much, bud.

Everyone else seemed to have agreed with the change, and a surge of people seemed to have agreed and stayed on along with the ride. Honestly, its shocking, but thank you guys for all the support. I don't say it much, but I really really love y’all. Thank you for making my 2019.

Joining the World

How could I forget this year when I broke milestone after milestone. When more people saw my art than before. It’s been a wild ride, 2019.

Along with the sudden spike in art quality came an influx of new people. The sudden change from no one to someone is something I’ve never learned how to handle. There were some mental lapses and beginner’s mistakes, but slowly I learned the truth that apparently some people come to see me be... me. Its quite shocking to me, but apparently that’s the end all of it.

After a rough set of years for my social life however, it was tough to connect with fellow artists, to the point impostor syndrome was the way of life for a few months. It is still there, but compared to last year, this year was also the year for wounds to heal, and to mingle with fellow artists. Furrypinas gave me the sense of the human aspect of artists. I’m still chasing that human feeling in art, but perhaps its good to let the next year roll in with that.

I’ve joined a lot of discord servers full of furries and art and full of those who have made it and those still going on their journey. It felt weird at first, trying to mingle, but slowly by slowly I entered more and more and got more and more help. Eventually building confidence in myself and trust in others, I made my first fan art for Beyond The Western Deep and it got featured! That is an achievement past years’ self would be shocked to know.

Compared to the past few years I’ve been living in a hole, I’ve reached out more than usual, and its a damn good place to start the new year. To those artists who let me in despite how I think I am, thank you for making my 2019.

Involvements

Not going to lie, there were a lot of things I joined this year. More than the introverted me would ever think.

I worked for three events in college as the publicity head, which I capped off with an award from the student council. I joined PALS and took a leap of faith and joined UP Graphic, after 2 years without an organization. I ended up becoming the graphics editor for the college paper, and then became the main designer for the college’s lantern parade. There are also some stuff there, but I can’t quite say it yet!

Okay, enough about art you dork.

There are other achievements outside art. Well, for starters this year I ended up as another college scholar/deans list/honor student or whatever you call it for the fourth time in a row. I joined a self-defense class and made new friends along the way. I also found out that I’m kinda good with a knife (wanna try)? I became more sociable, and less of a tunnel rat. Trust issues are still there, but it’s less prevalent.

I’ve slowly itched to record more music covers and pray to god I get a better mic soon. Its fun just doing it, you know?

But the greatest recovery ever, was going to therapy.

It was the strongest leap of faith I ever took, but I’m so thankful it payed off. Everything felt clear, and easier to breathe. To be frank, it was that and the old friend that really changed things for my head. Its like a big weight has been lifted. There are no words to describe it. If you feel like you need it, please seek professional help.

Final goodbye for 2019.

Nothing in this post can fully encapsulate how much I am grateful for this year. I’m happy to say that I’m leaving 2019 a far better person than I was at the start of the year. Last year, I thought 2018 would be the peak of everything, and turns out I was wrong.

However, I didn’t get here by myself. Its time to say thanks to those who have got me here so far.

To my friends, the folks who I confide in, my support system, my everything, thank you guys so much for being there since day one, and the multiple resets that came along with it. Thank you for listening to my problems and for helping me get back on my feet. I would be half the man I am today without you guys.

To my discord server, thank you so much for filling my life with laughter and fun things to talk about. Thank you for all the fun memories we’ve had this year, and I’m looking forward to new memories in the years to come.

To the artists I look up to, thank you for helping me squeeze myself in slowly into the fandom. Thank you for the welcoming hugs, the fun conversations, and even the support coming from you guys. 

To my new followers, new fans of my art, thank you for believing in me. There were times I couldn’t do the same for myself, but you guys were my reminder that there were people who would care when a simple person’s bright light would flicker.

Rest in peace, ninang, and my two teachers. I hope you are proud of what I’ve become.

Thank you 2019.

Happy New Year, and here’s to 2020 and here’s to all the trials and tribulations that come along with it!
