April 30th— DotS' 6th anniversary!

Time ever marches on, and so too must life

Today's a special day, marking Dreams of the Stars' 6th anniversary as a comic series! I'll be a bit late to making an anniversary image as I typically do, but I hope you look forward to when it's done!

6 years, man. It's certainly come a long way! So much has changed, especially the story and characters!

Twyla herself has undergone the most amount of change, with a complete background change, which in turn has affected her character immensely. Nevertheless her friends too, and many key characters involved in the story, most notably Orpheus. He's a big deal, even modernly. And my trouble child. He's 100% out of my control, and I pretty much just do his bidding these days

Nevertheless new characters have stepped in to assume greater roles, such as Magolor with his mysterious connections and dubious past. When I started 6 years ago, I wouldn't have believed it if you told me Magolor would've taken such a huge place in DotS 5 years later LOL That cat snuck on me for real

6 years of meeting so many new people, friends coming and going, good times, bad times, and fun times between. Many forever farewells as well, first being my friend Ty, and family members to follow. This series has been with me through two jobs and a lot of hardship. It's been a bastion, a joy for not only myself, but my sister and many others

It's been a long journey, and in recent months it has been pretty slow-going due to major life changes and so forth. But I'm finally getting back in the swing of things ever slowly, dreaming up new ideas, getting inspired!

DotS is almost fully rebuilt, lore-wise, and its story is coming together with each passing day

I have a lot to share in coming months, both design-wise and special sneak peeks into things as I did regularly months ago!

Cheers to more years, DotS 💖 My pride and joy

Happy 6 years, Dreams of the Stars 💜✨

I oddly like the "alpha werewolf" romance troupe, but LOATHE all the cringy red-flagy shit that comes with it. (like come on, is it that hard to have a healthy relationship? i want comfort in my spicy romance!!!)

So I decided to make MY OWN "alpha werewolf" romance cringe, and make it fun and wholesome! Some good ol' wholesome cringe!!

SO BEHOLD!!

THE ALPHA AND HER WIFE!! 🐺❤️👩🏻‍🦰

That's right bitches!! I made it a wlw romance!!

what’s the vibe of your blog. everyone has their own. is it an art gallery exhibit serving canapés. a nightclub. a knights of the round table situation. a book discussion meeting. a lonely hearts club newspaper section. a bedroom where you and two friends are chatting. the school of athens debating matters of consequence. a garden tea party. a bacchanal. an agatha christie murder novel style tense dinner party. etc

(for the purposes of this poll, there is no monkey's paw situation: the chore you pick stays the same level of difficulty/grossness/etc. as it normally is for you, and you only have to do it as often as you want to. the chores you don't pick are magically done for you exactly the way you'd want them to be, just with zero effort on your part.)

#mopping and vacuuming is fun ill do that #i just gotta actually remember to do it

You guys really liked my last poll so

Gonna be interrupting the ongoing Neo3 saga for a bit, because something serious needs to be addressed.

Its come to my attention that there have been some serious allegations against me and another member of the Magoverse server. The posts were brought to us by someone in said server and that’s how we all found out.

Im here to provide proof against them.

TLDR: There has been a person lying about some very serious matters. I will discuss and provide proof against their claims below.

A former member of our server, giyagas-strikes-back, has claimed that I have been generally harassing them while they were there. They have stated that they have no proof of their accusations. There is no evidence of this because it did not happen at all.

I did not abuse or harass them. All I did was address the behavior that was making other members of the server uncomfortable. We were not once rude to this individual. We had spoken with them regarding their disruptive behavior multiple times, including their disrespect towards our members when they had asked them to tone things down and failed to regard such wishes.

 Seen below:

For this next series of screenshots, they were involved in an rp involving sudden angst/violence that made members in the server uncomfortable. I was not the one who addressed the concern, but I did agree with the point of the one who did.

Another event where they commented something negative about something and someone else talked to them about it. Again, I was only agreeing with someone else, I did not speak harshly to them at all:

We never held a grudge against them, and only spoke to them in this way when they made someone uncomfortable.

Additionally, they told us that they were at least 13 (minimum age for joining the server) when we talked to them. We all thought we were speaking to an individual who would handle criticism we gave them seriously. We found out later that they were lying about their age:

Because we weren't notified, it only came to our attention much later into their membership, as is shown here. (Edited Discord notifications do not provide an "unread message" tag, and with a massive influx of members coming in at that time, this message was quickly buried.) We do not accept members under the age of 13 in our server. Every member under the age of 18 must inform us that they are a minor (no specific number required, just that they're under 18), and they are given a tag indicating that they are a minor. Additionally, we have multiple guidelines in place regarding minors and VC manners. We all mind our distance. To note: Before we could confront giyagas-strikes-back they left the server. We are unsure if they left because they caught wind we knew about them lying about their age, or if they left because of the multiple times that members of the mod staff had been forced to step in to handle behaviors or statements made by them that made other members uncomfortable.

An extra note to add, giyagas-strikes-back claimed that all this happened in a server where the “mod was always away”. We are the mods, and they were fully aware of this. The status of our mods is very apparent and in no way shape or form secret. Even our nicknames are given a specific color to indicate that we are the mods of the server. We only ever interacted with them on the specific server that we mod, so I am unsure if this is another lie, or if they legitimately didn’t realize we were mods and that is why we kept addressing their behaviors with them.

They also mentioned that I associate with Blaze, who they claim said weird stuff to them/is grooming them. But doing a quick search on a statement they made proves otherwise:

I believe these allegations are an immature act of retaliation due to our addressing their ill behaviors.

Theres one more thing I need to address. It was also brought to my attention that someone is claiming I stole an AU. I was never approached about this, neither has Blue as far as I am aware, and honestly have no idea what AU they're referring to, so I'm going to assume it is CtyH (Close to Your Heart, the au where Mags marries a god). We first discussed this au last January 26, 2023 -- here are screenshots of the first discussions about it. This AU started off as an offshoot to my interp and evolved from there. If anyone ever felt I had stolen something, it was never brought up with me or Blue, and I never wrote this AU with anyone elses in mind.

In closing: A healthy reminder. When people are accusing others of something, never take just their word as fact. Always look into it before making your own decision about the person in question, even if it comes from someone you trust. Never let anyone's opinion be your opinion. Always, ALWAYS, find the facts and discern for yourself! Make your own choice. Don't allow others to choose for you. Take this evidence as you will, but please, if you know those responsible for damning our names and making these baseless claims, we ask that you do not harass them on our behalf. We will not tolerate anyone speaking ill of them in my name. Yes, what they are doing is bad, but would any of us be better if we reciprocate in the same manner? That helps no one. Instead, simply inform and educate others. Be peaceful, be respectful. Be polite. Do not attack these people under any circumstances.

#all of this #again please do not attack anyone involved
