me, looking at an indie Nintendo Switch game: Oh this looks like a lot of fun and something I would really enjoy....but I still have other games I haven't even started yet, and $20 is kinda......... mmmmaybe I'll wait until it goes on sale, or I finish a project so I can justify getting it.

me, catching sight of Jade's face on the new channel alert in the Nintendo News page: ‼ Jade from Beyond Good & Evil?! What are YOU doing here?? ...!!! They're releasing a remastered edition of Beyond Good & Evil for the 20th anniversary??? Holy shit!!! And it's only $20?? *buys it immediately*

(something something priorities and the fear of trying new things)

I can't believe this just dropped without any warning at all. (and that, after all these years, there's still no sequel? damn and I thought the wait for Metroid Prime 4 was rough) Anyway, to celebrate the game I was obsessed with back then, here's fanart I drew of Jade 19 years ago. :x

(with emo black wings, looool. Oh early/mid 2000s...)

Anyway this game is such a treasure, I can't wait to revisit it. Is Ancel still working on that insanely ambitious sequel? Have video game graphics reached whatever ideal he was seeking? (and can it then be blasphemously crunched down so I can play it on a Nintendo system?) Ah, maybe in another twenty years it'll finally be released.

Mishmish & Sobek Notepad

This is a notepad design I made for The Tsundoku Chronicles' River of Silver Bookish Box that's currently on sale!

I'm really happy with how it turned out. 💖

If you would like a notepad, check out TheTsundokuChronicles on Etsy, and if you want Mishmish on a sticker or something, look me up on Redbubble! 💖🦁

Sobek and his hatchling

Thinking about an au where instead of being sent to the Citadel, baby Ali was taken by the marid.

"I can see clearly now, the rain is gone;

I can see all obstacles in my way;

Here is that rainbow I've been praying for;

It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright sunshinin' day"

Fanart of Nahri and Ali from The Daevabad Trilogy, spoilers for The Empire of Gold.

It doesn't really seem right to be posting this when everything is so troubled. But sometimes you gotta believe that the storm will end regardless of how it currently looks. So please think of this as a hope for better days.

Nahri and Ali both go through a lot during the series and end up with their own share of scars. But they make it through to the other side.

In fantasy, it only takes a few brave souls to turn the tide and make things right. In reality, it takes a population. There are a lot bad things going on right now, all around the world. Palestine, India, Tigray, Colombia, Brazil... I know it can be overwhelming, but please educate yourself on what is happening, and support however you can. Amplify voices, speak out, donate, contact your representatives. Don't let it fall into silence, into the "it's not my problem." We can't solve things on our own, but together, maybe.

Finished my Daevabad pumpkin carving 💖 Based on the City of Brass enamel pin design by SJWonderlandz on IG for Beacon Book Box. 🎃

Finally done. ❤️ Ali and Nahri spending time together in the Royal Library, from The City of Brass/Daevabad Trilogy.

"Ali wasn't used to Daeva eyes; he'd always found their ebony depths slightly off-putting, though admittedly Nahri's were rather nice, her human features softening the harshness." -- The City of Brass

Day 4 of the Welcome to Daevabad prompt challenge - Ali: nerdy characters!

I love this Bir Nabat scene from The Kingdom of Copper, and how Ali is always so enthusiastic to learn new things. 💗

[musogato]

For the Welcome To Daevabad photo challenge, I will be drawing the prompts. Here's day 1: Midan - Diverse books!

I love how the Daevabad trilogy represents the various middle eastern countries and cultures through the six djinn tribes, and how it all comes together in the midan. If the Netflix adaption happens, it's gonna be so amazing to see. 💗

(also posted on Twitter and IG, and if you'd like to enter the challenge to win some great prizes, please check my other post!)

"Banu Nahri has been at his bedside daily. She is very attached to him."

Fanart of S. A. Chakraborty's The City of Brass. I'd bet coin that Muntadhir's words came back to haunt Dara during this scene. 😏

Day 2 of the Welcome to Daevabad prompt challenge - The Veil: hidden worlds.

Although it's not actual smoke, I love how Daevabad is hidden from view until the threshold is crossed. (idk what the wall should look like, but it'll be pretty rad to see in the Netflix adaption. 💖)

Day 3 of the Welcome to Daevabad prompt challenge - The Citadel: Epic Battle

I love Ali's climatic battle on the beach near the end of The Kingdom of Copper, and how fills the area with fog with just a snap of his fingers.

A Healing Song

I had to cut this comic in half because Tumblr was making it super blurry. But anyway, you just know Link and Steven would understand each other.

Inktober 2017 - Days 7, 8, and 9.

Featuring Kingdra, one of the first pokemon I IV bred & EV trained for the Battle Tower (and has been on my competitive team ever since). Weavile, a pokemon I bred/trained for a LiveJournal comp that has also stayed on my team since. And then a Poochyena and Ralts that have never been used in any capacity, but I continue to transfer them to each new game. Benny’s named after an old pet, and Mraz is.... in a Dive ball. ....Yeah.

Inktober 2017 - Days 1 through 6.

This year I’m drawing my most beloved pokemon, since I recently had an SD card scare and nearly lost all of my data. This batch features Movie Event Mew, Jirachi, and Shaymin; Colosseum bonus disc Celebi and Jirachi, a Pokemon Ranger Manaphy that I hatched from an egg (still one of my favorite Pokemon experiences); and a Sinnoh-hat Pikachu.
