no it’s literally it’s just it’s “loved slipped beyond your reaches and i couldn’t give a reason” and “there’s an ache in you put there by the ache in me” and “if it’s all in my head tell me now” and “sorry, i can’t see facts through all of my fury” and “im sorry for not making you my centerfold” and “sorry for not winning you an arcade ring” and “i should’ve asked you questions i should’ve asked you how to be” and “it wasn’t right the way it all went down looks like you know that now” and “i replay my footsteps on each stepping stone, trying to find the one where i went wrong” and “but if you ever think you got it wrong” and “you know when it’s time to go” it’s all so 😵💫

cinderella phenomenon merch update
hi guys !! update on the cindphenon merch: they're coming along really nicely, and i should have previews for them up soon ! :DD
also little faq from the form, future order dates, sales misc etc below the cut:
will they be available internationally?
yes ! but as i'm not based in the US, shipping to US and other parts of Asia/the rest of the world starts from around $10usd as i'll be using registered mail;; if you have a few friends in the same region as you, I'm open to group orders to help with shipping costs !
what characters will be available?
as of now (and for the foreseeable future lol), it will be Rod, Karma, Rumpel, Fritz, Varg, Waltz, Lucette, Myth, Parfait and Delora based on the original game.
all of them will have individual charms except Delora and Parfait, who will come together in the same charm as each other's front/back. Fritz and Varg will be available as both individual and same charm versions.
will Evermore versions be available?
unfortunately, i don't think so unless this original batch does extraordinarily well haha// due to the style of the merch, it takes a long time to produce and i simply don't have the time to dedicate to so many characters again;;
but if i change the designs...simplify them...hm...but then they wont match the og ver charms hrngh....i dont know haha !! im thinking about it !!! i really am !!! but ultimately this is very much a passion project for me so it is at the whims of my limited time and energy :"))
what about the results of the poll aka the front/back designs of Karma and Waltz?
please wait and see when the previews are up! a hint: there were very clear majority winners on what the people wanted between the options :"DD
do previews include irl photos/samples?
unfortunately not! i won't be receiving samples until sometime early nov, but you'll be able to see the full designs before then! however, i will be posting pictures of the irl samples when they arrive as well :))
when will they be available for sale ?
as long as there's no delays/issues with the sample batch of charms, pre-order sales will open once i confirm the quality of the samples!
so the projected timeline would be:
- open pre-orders mid/late nov 2023.
- to avoid Christmas shipping jams etc, pre-orders will close late dec 2023/early jan 2024
- shipping to begin sometime mid jan 2024
do take note that as this is a projected timeline, things are subjected to change. i will update the timeline accordingly when the ball starts rolling!
if you're unable to purchase at that time, i will likely be opening a second sale after may 2024 to sell any leftovers after a local con. however as these will be leftover stock sales, i cannot guarantee that the character you want will still be available then.
i won't be able to pre-order from nov - jan, and i'm worried leftover stock won't include the charm i want. will you open pre-order sales for this set of charms again?
maybe not. it depends on how well the sales of this initial batch does, as merch production can get quite expensive...if there's not much demand in this first round of sales and i'm unable to justify the high production+shipping fees, i may not be able to have a second sale.
however, i am considering making other cindphenon merch as well (evermore charms, physical fanzines, but mainly Fritz + Varg related merch like a standee)! considering my schedule, these will most likely only be available post-may 2024, but i will keep you all updated on this! i will either reblog this post with any updates or make a new post on updates, so feel free to follow for merch news!
if you have any other questions, go ahead and shoot an ask through the inbox or reply to this post :D i'll get to them as quickly as possible, but take note i will answer all questions publicly for audience sake, so please use the anon feature in asks if you're uncomfortable with that!
