HI GUYS I'M RUNNING A PRINT SALE!!

I'm very excited about it because it will be my very first print sale ever. But a little bit of background before I go into that because I feel like it's warranted here on Tumblr. So over on bluesky, I did a December challenge where every day in December, I drew a designated prehistoric animal, most of which were dinosaurs, but not all of them. It was the first challenge of it's kind I've ever done, and I was incredibly proud of myself for finishing it along with all of the work and the holidays too. For once, I finished a 31-day art challenge. And then I didn't post it here on Tumblr. OOPS. Don't worry, I plan on bringing them all over here in March (the next month of 31 days), but if you'd like to see them all early, they are on my website in my print section. And all of them are currently available for purchase, with the lovely sale pitch of: Free Shipping on orders over $50. And yes, that works for ALL of my prints, the dinosaur ones are just featured at the moment. I'm really excited to see how it goes!

Unfortunately, I can only fulfill in the US, mostly because the prices of shipping overseas are ridiculous, but also because EU currently set new laws on small businesses and products coming into the country. So until that is sorted, only the US shipping for now. I hope you can understand.

And yeah, that's about it. Print Sale on my website! I still get a ton of support from my followers here and just from this site in general so it felt remiss to not advertise this sale here too. The prints are not super expensive (if anything the shipping might be more so the savings are good) and are of incredible quality, I check each one before they are sent out and you get a nice little personal drawing from yours truly :) Thank you in advance and I'll talk to you all soon <3

more shadow because the silly

[^context for that^] been reading a whole lotta post-movie fics and making up my own in my head. The regulator rings (if that's what they are idk I'm new to all this) are wrecked and chaos energy is just pouring outa the fella, making wounds worse and ruining any progress his accelerated healing could do (BECAUSE ANGST YOU FOOL).

oh and also a wee bit of a doodle for the fic I'll Be There With Lavenders by XenoCG because twas very cute and saw the outfit collage they posted (I already tagged them on insta I don't want to bother them again ouuuuhgh)

[vaguely-concerned]

obsessed with the fact that if you choose the last purple option in lucanis' romance chat before going off to tearstone island ("they MOVED the MOON!!!" still in the running for the best delivery in the whole game btw it's so ineffably hilarious to me), it's rook who flinches away just a little bit (if still warmly <3) and tries to change the topic and lucanis who's steady even though he's clearly still so afraid. 'don't tempt fate'/'*the softest fucking voice you've ever heard in your entire life* I don't intend to'. pain and suffering

lucanis looking at rook and helplessly, with a wonder that verges on despair, saying 'what would I do without you?' is soooo. especially at that point in the relationship and with what's about to happen. and for whatever reason rook can't quite stay with the fact that they do mean that much to someone, that they are so reverently and so groundingly 'I want to know what your favourite food is so I can make it for you any time you want it' everyday loved, it's too much and they have to deflect from it or the fear of losing it. can say some very interesting things about them, too.

(there is also a Pattern in that in my estimation lucanis frequently responds better to inviting humour than to earnest shows of concern -- it seems to help him be more engaged/online to be offered that more neutral space to meet you in and uh 'build' the conversation around something funny together than to be confronted with compassion head-on because that clearly mostly deer-in-the-headlights him, as we also see with some of the early flirt options haha. contrast this especially with bellara, who repeatedly gets genuinely upset if you try to make light of some pressing and painful situation she's dealing with (girl I'm so sorry I'm so jestercore and I canot change this but I'll try :'( for you). I think the times lucanis reacts negatively to the purple options are much more about you siding with other (frequently more charismatic lol) people against him or throwing him under the bus interpersonally -- like seeming to go along with illario's charm offensives, or telling teia lucanis didn't want to come help out with caterina's funeral and he'd just sit alone and brood about it if you didn't force him (???!!! hello??? unprovoked and deeply unkind out of left field???? this option is so fucking MEAN and for what fhdaskjfa you're telling me there's no way for rook to be a bit of a dick in this game?)

when it's one on one conversation he consistently seems to find it quite comforting, though... which makes a lot of sense because in many ways it's how he interacts with illario, just shorn of the resentments and hidden daggers and things they Do Not Talk About but really should beneath the levity that makes it sharp. it's gone ugly between them, but I think the affectionate instinct beneath is real and goes back a long way before all of that festered -- it's a form of play he does with people he loves. and uh. not really caterina huh. notably.)

imagine you are playing a story-based game w the opportunity to learn more abt charas thru a relationship system (eg visual novels), and your ability to explore every relationship is linked to your success in a different part of the game.

Short ramble before I slumber tho

For the 2000’s Jeanmarco AU I wanted to draw them being corny- anyway I love thinking in this AU Jean has frosted tips…I also love the idea of them staying up all night playing on the Xbox when it first released,,,cuddling,,,,gaming,,,,UGHHHHHH like this isn’t anything g super big but I love thinking about them

I wanna draw them with a silly camcorder they share, making silly home videos of themselves and their friends,,,,Sasha and Connie stealing the camcorder to record one of Jeanmarcos “secret” dates and it’s just super corny and cheesy and cute I HATE THEM!!!!! They mean the world to me omg

I read some tags implying that my Piccolo is Gohan’s Real Dad is a hater statement but listen I never said Goku wasn’t Gohan’s real dad. Some boys have two real dads and an ex-military uncle with a shady past who lets you drink at his house as long as you don’t tell your mom, and that’s okay.

[daily-basil]

Ok I got a submission about it so I'm gonna do a quick update--

I'M SO SORRY FOR THE LACK OF DAILY BASIL! Literally everyone is busy right now. I am Attempting to make daily-basil doodles in anticipation of reopening the blog, but basically several other mods are either busy, on vacation, artfighting, or otherwise unable to contribute right now

I've been trying to draw some Basils so that I have a few to use when we do reopen the blog entirely but it has been a Struggle. Apologies for the hiatus going on for much longer than I had anticipated oops

[icewindandboringhorror]

I occasionally wish to reach out to old friends/acquaintances I haven't spoken to since high school/some other even earlier time in my life, but I have SOOO little social energy even for required tasks (like making dr phone calls or etc), I never have any leftover for extra ones, and it would be very odd to message someone I haven't spoken to in like 5 years out of the blue but then take 4 entire months to respond back lol.. My natural curiosity with nostalgia/collecting details of the past/etc. (literally if I were born a little earlier I would definitely do scrapbooking or something lol) is very strong, but, alas, not strong enough to beat out the Social Issues Demons apparently
