All of the sprites in the summer newsletter were terrific, but I just thought that Alphys in her little swimsuit enjoying the beach was so cute, I had to draw her!
oh my god but shenhe with our kid—ohh, my heart! but it also had me thinking...
the whole thing of shenhe being born under a star of calamity and misfortune, and initially being utterly terrified at the thought of you having a child with her. who knows if misfortune is inherited, after all? it's the last thing shenhe wants, to inadvertently cause her baby bad luck simply for existing—
but then the adepti, cloud retainer read the child's fortune, and they find that they're born under a lucky star. that you and shenhe could create such a sweet gift, to prove that shenhe is capable of good things and not simply destruction... wouldn't that be wonderful?
Oh poor Shenhe… :((
She doesn’t want her tiny bundle of joy to fall down the same road that she did when she was a kid. She’s so worried that her baby would end up being isolated and alone, so she takes great measures to treat them with such care, you’d think Shenhe would be handling glass.
Of course, once Shenhe finds out your child is blessed however, she is over the moon. She’s absolutely joyous and free of all her worries, burying her face into your baby’s small stomach and practically chanting thank you’s into their skin.
Lucky? Unlucky? I think that despite Shenhe’s worries, she’ll still love her child regardless <3
Mum came back from her marketing trip and got me this pack of Economy Rice (菜饭) from one of the coffee shop stall in Chong Pang. A fish fillet cooked in savoury sauce with a side of asparagus bean & squid stir-fry plus aromatic rendang chicken. Of course, one got to go with white rice with the spicy chicken dish.
