He is a collection of stories
he’ll never tell. In the moonlight, he looks like a vanishing horse.
In the daylight: a dog.
He has nothing to say about the question he wants to ask.
The same one I’ll ask of the future.
About being the one to live
— A. D. Lauren-Abunassar, from "Tessellate," published in Rusted Radishes

Summary: The guy’s car is that sort of vehicle that can fit few people but a lot of life garbage if you’re running away. He’s been shuttling between his house and the car for so long Wei Ying’s tea has gone cold and irrelevant. Everything seems insignificant now that Wei Ying has a human neighbour. And the guy just absolutely had to buy the house right next to Wei Ying's.
Kay's comments: Ah, this story was so soft in its sadness. Really hard to describe what it made me feel, but I'm feeling a lot of it. Just. The feeling of isolation of Wei Ying living all alone with only his cat named Donkey until one day, Lan Zhan moves into the house across from his and despite how Wei Ying has isolated himself, he just can't help himself and pester Lan Zhan and look out for him. Both of them a broken in their own ways, but their broken pieces fit together perfectly.
Excerpt: "I need to go to a pharmacy to get some first aid supplies," Lan Zhan says.
"I forgot the bird seeds," Wei Ying beams at him, seeing through Lan Zhan’s adorably crude lies. "You go there and I'll go back."
"You go first. I will wait here."
"Nononono, we'll both go. Take the keys."
The look on Lan Zhan's face when he comes back to the car with lube and Wei Ying is holding two rabbits in a little box is worth every single day Wei Ying has spent alone in a dilapidated house on the edge of the world and his sanity.
"Wei Ying."
"First aid supplies."
They go home.

Namesake II
This is process work for another project I had in mind. I made these back in 2020, project idea was kinda put off/limbo. You know how it is, life, health, college, the grind, just conceptual. Well, that’s the mystery behind the page name. I’m in a sharing mood, I’ll get it done, maybe vision will come to me, I hope. 2023-08-10

Flow, with updated colours. The blue just felt like it didn’t fit anymore, and I like this version better. All of my products have also been updated to this version.

Frances: Why are you nervous?
Sam: I don’t know, I’ve never been summoned to the dean's office with a student before.
Frances: Wait, I thought you knew what was going on.
Sam: Sometimes your professors don’t have all the answers.
Frances: Well shit.

Frances: Hi.
Octavia: Ah, there she is.
Dr. Kapoor: Good afternoon, Frances. Octavia and I were discussing your audition the other day.
Frances: I- Am I in trouble?
Octavia: Quite the opposite really. I wanted to personally extend an invite to intern with me in De Sol Valley.
Frances: Holy- That’s amazing!
Octavia: I was thinking we’d start a month after you graduate. You would need to move over there, I hope that won’t be an issue.
Frances: Ah, I just… I signed a lease with my friend and I wouldn’t want to leave her locked in.
Octavia: You would have a paid internship of course and living arrangements made.
Frances: I think we could make this work.
Octavia: Wonderful! My assistant here will get the process started. I’m incredibly excited to work with you.
Frances: Likewise. Thank you so much for this opportunity.
Dr. Kapoor: Congratulations, Frances.
Frances: Thank you.
Kassandra: Would I be able to get your number and email? I’m Kassandra, by the way.
Frances: Ah yes! Of course. Nice to meet you.

Bite chunks out of me
You're a shark and I'm swimming
My heart still thumps as I bleed
And all your friends come sniffing
Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let's go
My love, it's very late
'Til morning comes
Let's tessellate
Go alone my flower
And keep my whole lovely you
Wild green stones, alone my lover
And keep us on my heart
Three guns and one goes off
One's empty, one's not quick enough
One burn, one red, one grin
Search the graves while the camera spins
Chunks of you will sink down to seals
Blubber rich in mourning
They'll nosh you up, yes, they'll nosh the love away
But it's fair to say, you will still haunt me
Triangles are my favorite shape
Three points where two lines meet
Toe to toe, back to back, let's go
My love, it's very late
'Til morning comes
Let's tessellate
