(besides bard) what's one class you can never take too serious? Mine is wizard
specifically necromancers.
All i can ever see is them raising the dead just to do the thriller dance
Hmm that's a hard one. Since I usually host games I end up playing practically every class at one point.
I kinda can't take sorcerers seriously. Magical nepo babies the lot of them. Grandad was special friends with an eldritch abomination or talking tree spirit and boom you've got powers.
They front as masters of raw arcane energy but all it takes is a single forehead flick to knock them the heck out

hi,, could i request a matchup?? OK sorry if this is in the wrong uh area i've never requested anything or anything like that before 😅 also i love all your works they are so good 💪💪💪 ok back to the thing--i use he/it pronouns and am....way too gay im 5' 3" and kind of on the smaller side, but i get told a lot people thing id be taller idk why lol
i have shaggy like golden-dirty blond hair (dyed/and my roots are starting to grow in) that usually a complete mess and i have very choppy bangs, my eyes are hazel and i have olive skin and i always seem to have bruises and cuts on me--as well as light freckles on my face and shoulders, i love rainy weather and cold weather although i get cold easy and like collecting things and cinnamon raisin bagels
i kind of dress like a trashy punk/skater, or like jay and silent bob (who i love) im obsessed with slashers and big men in general, i am the shy->obnoxiously extroverted person and have ADHD,,, i don't know how much im supposed to write im sorry if this is too long 🥲 i also listen to old punk and like 80's--00's hip hop and am hypermobile 👍 again sorry if this is too long--i am addicted to sugar and sometimes forget too eat ,, i am an insomniac and binge shows and movies (which i'm obsessed with movies)--ok im gonna stop it now before this gets super long
THANK YOU ❤️ i love your works and everything so make sure you're staying hydrated and rested and happy !!! 👍👍
I paired you up with...
♡Brahms Heelshire♡
Tumblr media
THANK YOU FOR BEING SO NICE OMG. 
The way this man would be always plating kisses on every cut or bruise you get. He would even draw smiley faces on the bruises so they look more pretty just to make you smile. 
Good fucking thing you love rainy days and cold weather cause that's all you will get if you live with brahms. He would never allow you to light up the fireplaces but he would lend you his sweaters or always wrap a blanket around you if he sees you're getting too cold. 
The more I read your description the more it makes sense to pair you with brahms. Like you he too enjoys collecting things, especially your stuff so yeah there's that. His room inside the wall is full of things he has acquired over the years either by stealing them from his nannies or by asking his parents to buy them for him. 
He would love your whole aesthetic and vibe so much cause he's used to either old fuckers who are boring as fuck  or really bland people who don't do much around. He needs someone energetic and full of life to make him feel less dead inside you know? He would love to listen to everything you want to talk about or to do fun inside activities together. He hates to get bored so you're like the perfect partner in crime. 
Brahms strictness with rules would be really helpful with the whole skipping meals things, he would remind you to always eat or would convince you to eat with him. I don't  know how good he could do to you about the sugar addiction but at least he would never let you starve so that's a win to me. 
This horny wall troll is always fuckin up his sleep schedule or he's following the rules so precisely he would force you into have a sleep schedule too. Either way he's always doing everything together so whatever he's feeling would have an effect on you too, that means he would either keep you company or help you to fall asleep with him.
This matchup made me think about this song:

25. What is a weird, hyper-specific detail you know about one of your characters that is completely irrelevant to the story?
I HAVE TOO MUCH ACTUALLY.
I'm gonna talk both about some hyper-specific UTDR headcanons and under the cut about some OCs I guess.
Frisk is the kind of kid who will tell a very morbid or dark thing they saw once without losing a bit. This is never relevant to the fics unless i choose to change my mind later.
Oh yeah also they live in Latin America but I only reference this in very vague ways because why not they're my fics.
Undyne also had a bunch of overpowered OCs as a kid. Must be the Asgore influence on his kids, her main ones are knight princesses. She hides old drawings in her piano music sheets.
Toriel is a very calm person and won't get sad easily but making her laugh is not difficult and she's LOUD. She'll be walking to a class and just burst out laughing on the hallway but is unable to explain the joke.
Papyrus is a fucking troll, actually this is canon. He is always expecting you to think he is about to talk shit about his brother and baits you because no he isn't. "I'm housemates with a bag of trash /trashy, in the kitchen!" (im rusty on memorizing dialogue sorry :c
Carmin (an OC from when I was 8) had red hair because i was obsessed with it and she's fucking named after a fancy shade of Red which makes it even funnier.
For that one HK fic:
The wanderer (1st narrator) would probably wear a beret if they knew about them just for the vibes. Their companion (who I call trihorn for short) doesn't know them enough to be able to tell if they're ironic or not about it. Oh yeah they also used to write poetry. It was not great but they tried.
Trihorn used to get drunk on honey-based alcohol on their younger days, so they can deal with hangover better. They're a decent singer too. I have more angst planned regarding them than the wanderer for some reason which is funny because i didn't intend for them to be relevant when I first wrote them Hmmmm
Remember what I said about Frisk casually saying really dark things?Harsata (whose name I keep misspelling with a J) is usually the recipient of stuff like that from whoever she's working with. She's the equivalent of those popular Tumblr blogs who get really weird anons and she's just like "ah yeah, we all know that." Oh she also makes lanterns with lumaflies.
There is this OC who I'm writing right now whose name spelling keeps changing a lot too (Tori, may change to Tor, Tory, Vico i have not settled). So do the character's pronouns. I think they're just gender fluid, honestly you ask them their gender and they just respond something like "helmet".
And uh that's it for now.

I think if there was a Heathers/Homestuck Au it could very easily be about the Alpha Trolls because they have trashy teen/young adult vibes
They really do. Mean Girls would work too.

i honestly am surprised you didn't give nomura tiny tiny heels for her hooves. like, an american girl doll heel
LOL i gave her the heels she has to fit her very different ankle structure ….but y’know that is a funny mental image fjKDKSK:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
tiny heels on solely her hooves would be the equivalent of wearing and walking on heels meant for solely your toes XD which… i’ll bet will be severely hard to do so

Oh yay!!!
Your driving and cooking headcanons had me cry laughing on the floor since they, so unexpectedly, fitted the valorant agents >< so I really wanted your input on outside of training physical activities! (aside from what Riot already gave us like Omen knitting, Raze dancing and listening to music etc)
I just wanna thank you for even considering this!!>< Your stuff really makes me laugh and happy!
hmmm, let me seeee... agent hobbies...
- viper keeps some potted plants, but only cactuses. they're prickly, like her. plus they're the only things she can remember to water often enough to keep alive.
- it's already been confirmed canon that killjoy plays league of legends. i feel like she'd also probably play DOTA as well... i get that vibe from her. ironically though i'm not sure if she would be into first person shooters; maybe she gets enough of that in her real life that she wouldn't want to play it on her offtime
- she might also play stuff like Warcraft/Starcraft, and maybe some sillier stuff like Overcooked. she has very strong opinions on Warcraft III: Reforged
- killjoy hacking in video games...?
- i said in the driving post that phoenix probably is into old cars and i stand by that i think. he probably nerds out about it sometimes with brimstone.
- we can see in yoru's music video (that song sucks donkey ass btw) that he rides a motorcycle, which i think suits him pretty well. i think he's probably into customizing his bike -- it definitely has a custom paint job. 
- skye canonically does woodworking 
- chamber gives me the vibes of a rich kid who took music lessons growing up, so he probably plays the piano (and possibly the violin). he probably doesn’t get many opportunities to do it, nowadays.
- neon keeps a sketchbook. she does some graffiti-style art (i’m not sure she would do actual graffiti, though). she talks about it with raze sometimes 
- raze, jett, neon, and phoenix compete at mariokart. neon usually wins.
- sova has a secret stash of trashy romance novels 
- astra makes her own clothes. she has a tendency to impulse buy cool fabrics.
- obviously cypher's main hobby is spying on everyone else in the protocol and getting the latest gossip
- i feel like cypher has a Thing about always getting everyone the best birthday gifts possible (by spying on them to find out what they want). it's creepy but kind of endearing
- skye is insane about exercising. also canon. 4am morning runs. 
- i've mentioned sova watching nature documentaries in another post. i feel like maybe he and sage would watch the marine life documentaries together
- reyna does makeup stuff and likes to go get her nails done. she’s probably big on spa activities 
- i think the idea of breach making miniatures is really funny LOL. maybe he started doing it semi-ironically to develop his arms’ fine motor skills but at some point he just started doing it for fun 
- breach is into researching conspiracy theories. he doesn't REALLY believe most of them, but he kind of half-believes some of them for funsies. he probably shares this with killjoy 
- jett plays MMOs, but she’s too embarrassed to tell anyone about it. she has some super decked out high level characters 
- killjoy trolls internet forums
- reyna secretly plays animal crossing. you won't live long enough to tell anyone if you find out, though
- brimstone has a baseball card collection
- yeah brimstone is a sports guy. yeah woo football!!!! 
- i'm not really sure what kay/o would like to do besides training and cooking! maybe he draws? i feel like he probably has trouble with his sense of identity and what he likes to do, given that he's a robot
- omen has one of those miniature zen gardens that sage gave him as a gift. outwardly he scoffs about it but he treats it with the utmost care.
- viper watches tv dramas. sometimes she watches them with reyna. reyna prefers period dramas.
- astra draws and writes in a journal
- phoenix still has an old hot wheels collection from when he was younger. maybe he occasionally still adds to it if he sees a rare one he doesn’t have yet 
- neon does extreme roller skating 
- viper has a line about losing a bet with brimstone, so i imagine that brimstone, viper, sage, and maybe cypher have a betting pool about the other agents’ tomfoolery. they have a large pool going regarding who has a crush on who.
- sage probably tries to act like she’s above it a lot of the time but can’t resist participating.  
- cypher has like. a conspiracy wall of all the potential romantic relationships between the agents. 
- phoenix is trying to learn the guitar (maybe partly because he thinks it’ll make him look cool) but he’s not very good at it yet 
- yoru swims

so many creatures/characters with darkvision, I can see lightvision being much better used. My version is you can't be blinded and can see through magical darkness up to 15 feet. think it's too weak or too strong?
Coming from the persepective of a D&D 3.5 edition superfan, I'm actually aware of a pair of abilities similar to this from that edition: blindsight and blindsense. Monsters with these abilities can detect the presences of creatures despite magical darkness or blinding effects within a certain radius of themselves. Blindsight is usually reliant on echolocation or extremely powerful sensory organs, while blindsense specifically is for creatures that typically lack traditional eyes (such as oozes) or have access to it under very specific circumstances.
It's neither too weak or too strong in my opinion; usually the creatures that have these abilities can have these strengths exploited or they aren't crafty enough to abuse them.
For instance, a grimlock in 3.5 edition have blindsight due to them being subterranean/Underdark creatures and reliant on their hearing and sense of smell--and they are vulnerable to loud sounds and noxious scent effects that a party can exploit. A good firecracker or stinkbomb (or stinking cloud) can send these creatures scattering blind.
Meanwhile sahuagin, the elf-hating fishfolk of the deep, have blindsense but only while immersed in water. A party can fish them up in a net (literally) if say their boat is attacked by a school, removing them from their preferred environment/home turf.
These abilities are a way to create inhuman creatures with unique abilities, but they aren't absolute and can be exploited by a clever group of adventurers. With 5e paring down status effects and conditions to bare basics, these abilities could be integrated as special abilities so long as they have their exploits (or are given to creatures that aren't a typical encounter). You're treading well-loved territory, and I approve one hundred percent, my friend!

@vibing-with-trashy-trolls here’s an art dump!
Be fully aware, The Jim and the Draal at the top were FULLY traced and art there for scale, I’m hoping to draw more of them. 
The OC Kanjigar “KJ” Junior is a Jraal Fan-child in vibing-with-trashy-trolls’ Fanfic Trollhunting With Your Troll. Its a fun read, and KJ has only made a few appearances, but i hope to see more of him. Still working on his proportions, and the uncolored stuff did not see a lot of effort.

Slack gives me the same vibes as that trashy manager from SU, Greg's old manager???
*CACKLES*
FAIR!
Honestly when brainstorming his original design, I used a couple of well known douchy "rockstars" for inspiration. 80s & 90s babies I think you can easily look at him and take a good guess at which ones. 🤣
Seriously. This Troll is a slimeball.

Nightmares and Phantom Pains
@vibing-with-trashy-trolls, @theworsttrollhunter, @rockymountainvixen
Here’s another, these kids have so much Trauma, story. Hope you either enjoy or it breaks your heart!
Please Reblog!
AO3 
Jim sat bolt upright, his chest heaving. His hand flew to cover his heart as another shooting pain blasted through him. Each breath came in short pained gasps, his vision whiting out for a moment as the pain became almost more than he could stand. 
He stumbled from his bed, pulling his shirt over his head one handed. He expected to see a dull red glow on his chest, and feared the glow would be yellow instead, but there was nothing. He bumped into the doorway as he tripped into the bathroom. With another pained gasp he fumbled for the light. 
Jim closed his eyes tight for a moment, as the bright light swamped his senses. When he was able to crack them open his eyes were drawn immediately to the scar on his chest. The circle where the amulet had sat, the jagged mark of the shard that he had pushed into his heart. Their magic was gone, but the scar they left remained. 
He rubbed the scar slowly, now he could see it wasn’t glowing. He wasn’t about to lose his will and be forced to hurt those he cared about. It still hurt, the shooting pain a shadow of what he had gone through but extreme enough now to still take his breath away, however he was still in control. He leaned closer to the mirror to examine the scar when he caught a hint of movement in the reflection. 
Jim whirled, a snarl on his lips, his fingers bared as if he still had claws. Then he froze. 
“Claire?” Jim whispered softly. “What are you doing awake?”
Claire smiled at him, though her smile appeared forced and the corners of her eyes were pinched. 
“I imagine the same thing you are.” Claire’s voice was strained. And now that Jim could look at her more closely he could see she held her arms tight to her chest as she sat on the lip of the bathtub. He knelt down next to her, a grimace of pain flashing across his face. 
“Your arms are hurting again?” 
Claire nodded, her jaw clenched, her eyes squeezed shut. 
“It had got better for a while there, but after...everything… they’ve started hurting again.”
“I’m sorry Claire-” Jim paused, glancing at the light switch that he had turned on when he entered. “Why were you sitting in the dark?”
Claire’s smile was a little less forced for a second. 
“Please. The shadows hold no secrets from me.”
To emphasize her point the shadows in the room swirled around her, covering and obscuring her completely. When they receded, her body rocked forward, her arms pressed even tighter to her chest, as a hiss of pain forced its way past her gritted teeth. 
Before either could say anything more a thump from their bedroom brought them both to their feet. 
“Claire? JIM!” A voice called from the bedroom. 
“We’re in here, Toby!” They said at the same time. 
After a moment Toby limped heavily into the room. He took in the two of them for a moment as he leaned heavily on the doorframe. 
“Hey Tobes.” “Hey TP.” Jim and Claire said right after each other. 
“Hey Jimbo. Claire-bear.” Toby replied. He looked at them again. His eyes moving quickly, taking in Jim’s hand still rubbing absently at his scar and Claire’s arms still tightly crossed over her chest. “Bad pain day?”
They both nodded, unnecessarily. 
“Let’s go down stairs. Maybe some hot chocolate will help.” Toby said. He pushed off the wall while Jim helped Claire rise. Jim was very careful not to touch her arms. Toby met them in the hall way, a cane in his hand. 
“Your knee acting up too?” Jim asked, the three of them slowly making their way down the stairs. 
Toby nodded. “Turns out all that gravity manipulation isn’t good on the ol’ joints. Your mom thinks it’s early on set arthritis.”
Jim grunted, either in acknowledgement or in pain as he pressed his hand to his chest again. Toby’s cane slipped on the stairs causing him to jostle Claire. She hissed in pain but helped steady him before he fell. 
The three of them finally made it downstairs to the living room. Steve and Krel were sleeping on the couch, so they walked as softly as they could to the kitchen. Claire noticed Steve was mumbling something in his sleep but she couldn’t make out what. 
When they were all in the kitchen Jim immediately pulled an ice pack out of the freezer to put on his still bare chest. Toby filled up the electric kettle and turned it on. Claire took the ice pack from Jim, wrapped it in a towel, then handed it back to him. Then she took over the sink, letting the cold water run over her hands and arms. 
“Oh Toby, don’t use water, we can make better hot chocolate with milk.” Jim said. 
“The water’s not for the hot chocolate.” Toby pulled a rubber bottle out from under the sink. “Dr. L’s been keeping this here for me, since I’ve been spending so much time here, while you were...away.”
Jim set to warming up the milk one handed, the other keeping the ice pack pressed to his chest. Claire started humming to herself quietly as the cold water ran over her arms. When the kettle was boiled, Toby filled the hot water bottle and pressed it gently to his knee. 
Over their quiet sounds in the kitchen they could hear Steve’s mumbling reaching a fever pitch. Claire turned off the water when he started shouting in his sleep. 
“No. Lancelot!” He shouted, his limbs flailing as he tried to fight whatever plagued him in his dreams. “No!”
His final scream brought him bolt up right, startling Krel from his sleep as well. The trio were at his side immediately. He panted, his eyes wild, as he took them in. His fists were up like he was about to punch one of them. Though when he recognized them he tried to bluster his way out. It was Jim who put his hand on Steve’s shoulder. 
“We have nightmares too.” Jim said, then nodded toward the kitchen. “Come on, we were just making some hot chocolate.”
Krel stood as well and followed them back into the kitchen. He dragged the blanket he had been using off the couch and kept it wrapped around himself. He patted Steve on the shoulder as they walked. 
“Do you want to talk about it, blond oaf?” He asked. Steve just shook his head, but looked thankful. 
As Jim set out mugs of cocoa for each of them, he rubbed his hand down his face. 
“I wonder if there is some magical cure for...well, all of this.” He gestured to the collection of sleepy teens in his kitchen. 
“Hmm. Maybe Douxie knows something.” Claire murmured more to herself. 
She put out her hand and the shadows in the dim kitchen leapt to her command, coalescing into a sphere at her fingertips. She winced, and grit her teeth, before breathing softly onto the shadow ball. 
“Hisirdoux.” She said to the orb. The magic swirled through with purple streaks before flashing dimly blue. In the orb in her hands Douxie’s face appeared, his face smooshed into a pillow. He opened one eye, before squinting it shut again, his face lit by a blue light.
“Claire?” He mumbled. 
“Hey Teach.” Claire replied. 
“Mmm. Archie what time is it?” Douxie muttered to the side of what they could see in the orb. 
“It is currently five in the morning.” Archie’s annoyed voice could be heard. 
“So that means it’s only two in the morning in Arcadia.” Douxie sat up, quickly rubbing sleep from his eyes. “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
“There are no world ending emergencies right now.” She clarified quickly. “We were just hoping for some advice.”
Douxie yawned and stretched. “Of course. I’m at your service. Who all is there?”
Claire tossed the shadow orb to the wall then spread her hands apart. The orb hovered close to the wall then changed and grew until it was the same size and basic shape as a decent flat screen TV. Douxie mimicked the same motion and they could suddenly see more of the room he was in. 
Both Krel and Steve raised their eyebrows as they saw that Douxie apparently slept in just a pair of loose sweat pants. Claire had to cover her mouth to keep her giggle from escaping. 
“Hello Jim. And uh, company.” Douxie said. “So what has you all up at this hour, if not an end of the world crisis?”
Jim waved to Douxie, then gestured to the scar on his chest. “Well, this thing woke me up with shooting pain.”
“I’ve got magical trauma from dark magic and nightmares.” Claire said. 
“Nightmares here too.” Steve said softly, feeling more comfortable opening up with everyone else doing it to.
“Same here.” Krel said. Steve glanced at him in surprise before refocusing on Douxie. 
Douxie opened his mouth to respond when Toby spoke over him. 
“Repeated and extreme gravitational shifts have caused all of the cartilage in my knees and hips to break down, leaving me with severe joint pain.” 
Douxie paused his face thoughtful for a moment. “I didn’t realize that was a consequence of gravity manipulation.”
“Yeah, neither did I!” Toby said, his arms crossed. 
“We were hoping you might know a spell or something that might help us?” Claire said. 
“Unfortunately, no. If there were some magical cure for 900 years of barely acknowledged trauma, I definitely would have found it.” He hesitated, glancing aside. Archie came and sat on his lap as he ran his hands through his long hair. “It’s as my master- uh as Merlin always used to say; ‘Magic is not a permissible shortcut to hard work.’”
He sighed, his head drooping to his chest. Archie stood to push his head against his wizard’s chin. They could barely hear the dragon-cat purring as he tried to comfort Douxie. 
“As far as I’m aware the only solution to your nightmares and phantom pains is hard work. Therapy. Maybe medication. Addressing the trauma and growing from it.” He stood up moving away from the view of everyone in the kitchen though he kept talking. “I can however write up some small spells or potions that you will be able to make, Claire. They will help ease the pain, hold your nightmares at bay, something to help you on that path to recovery.”
He reappeared a few seconds later with a book in his hands. Krel stopped examining the shadowy window Claire had created to stare open mouthed as Douxie’s sweats slipped a little further down his hips. 
“I know it’s not a lot, but it will help in small ways, and maybe make dealing with all of this a little easier for all of you.” Douxie said as he thumbed through the book. 
Claire grimaced, the strain of keeping the communication scry open, already adding to the pain in her body. She wasn’t sure she could cast another spell tonight. 
“What is happening?” A small voice said. 
“Oh sorry for waking you Nari.” Douxie said, facing to his left away from what the others could see. “The Trollhunters in Arcadia called for some magical advice.”
Nari jumped up onto Douxie’s bed, landing on all fours on the bed and walking across the bed to look at the Trollhunters. She tilted her head from side to the other, her antlers rocking back and forth as her bright eyes stared at them. 
“You are being troubled by your pain and fears.” She said, it wasn’t a question, but they all nodded anyway. “Claire of the shadow magic, if you can stand to make a small portal, my magic may provide some relief for you. At least enough so that you can return to sleep.”
Claire grit her teeth, one hand grabbing Jim’s arm, as the other started to cast one of her portals. She squeezed Jim’s arm, and Toby stepped to put his hand on her back. A soft growl came from her as the whirling portal took shape. 
As soon as the portal opened, Nari jumped forward, and moved her hands together, creating a green glowing ball. She passed it through the small portal and it came out into the Lake House kitchen. 
There was a collective sigh of relief from all the kids there. The tension dropped from Claire’s shoulders and her face lost it’s pinched look. Jim set his ice pack on the counter as he took a shuttering breath of relief. Toby set his hot water bottle in the sink and leaned his cane against the counter. 
“Hey Teach, I’ll call you later to get those spells from you.” Claire said, her voice suddenly heavy with exhaustion. The portal cut out as soon as Nari’s magic orb passed through and the communication scry cut out before she had even finished speaking. 
Krel and Steve both dragged their feet back to the couch, the green orb following them. Jim grabbed a few more blankets out of the hall closet, then slumped to the ground next to them. Claire and Toby curled up under the blankets with him. In was but the work of a moment, before all five of them fell back asleep. Their pain, gone, for now. Their nightmares, held at bay. A restful sleep found each of them. It wouldn’t remove the long road filled with hard work that was ahead of each of them, but at least for one night, they could sleep until dawn undisturbed. 
In the morning Barbara Lake came down stairs to find a pile of five teenagers all asleep under the soft light of a glowing green orb, that faded away to nothing in the morning light.

Favorite Instrument: Guitar. But cello, flute, piano, hang drum, bagpipes, and pipe organ all tie for a close second. I like listening to music, but I only ever learned one song on the tin whistle.
Dream Job: Fantasy/polemic novelist who also writes and draws niche kink.
Aesthetic: Dendritic stuff (branches, roots, neurons/nerves, rivers, lightening, blood vessels, red sprites, dendritic agates, antlers, etc), fractals, watching light play on the surface of water from the bottom of the deep end, silver, cool overcast days, clear starry nights, caves, fog, campfires, secret passages, stained coffee mugs, and being wrapped up. I don’t know a name that sums all that stuff up yet.
Favorite Author: I can’t pick just one, so in no particular order; John Gardner (I enjoyed and re-read Grendel several times in my early teens), Robert Jordan (The Wheel of Time series had a big impact on me growing up. There are some things I could nitpick about it now, but I still love the atmosphere of it.) Bernard Cornwell, Steven Pressfield, Andy Weir (I love The Martian - both the book and the movie), Robert Macfarlane’s Underland is beautifully written, Guillermo del Toro’s and Daniel Kraus’s original Trollhunters novel, I recently read Peter S. Beagle’s The Last Unicorn and fell in love with it, and a whole bunch of excellent fanfic writers.
Favorite Animal Noise: That weird little excited purr-squeak cats sometimes do when they get the zoomies.
Random: Anytime in a fantasy or sci-fi story where there are monster-warrior cannon-fodder that we are Absolutely Not Supposed To Sympathize With, I automatically just think they’re neat.
How it Started: I wanted to make the kinds of stuff I wanted to see, and wanted to connect with like-minded folks. I wanted to get over myself, climb out of my shell (I’m a natural recluse and hate feeling like I’m in someone’s way), and see that I’m not in the way, and I’m not alone, and in the process, maybe help someone else out there feel less alone, too.
How It’s Going: Pretty flippin’ awesome! I tend to get critical of my older work as time goes on, but I have no regrets about reaching out and making friends. I’m aware that I’m prone to drifting, though, and I’m trying to stop that.
