im planning to give away little mini 8 page booklets of ouj at the comic show this month but honestly trying to find the best 8 pages of ouj that aren't massive spoilers for the game or the comic is pretty hard

oh my god guys its happening again. its like she knows when the weekend is coming

Because SE's QA people are probably not in a position to defend themselves and their jobs in public, I want to spell out some of what it is they specifically do for us localizers, because nothing I've written here is rhetorical. SE QA acts as a final check on our work after translation and editing.

lil loose pen doodle to see if i still got it... i think i'm rusty

going through old volumes and this bonus strip.....

full disclosure i've been avoiding working on ouj for a little bit because i've felt writer blocked. but i think i have finally identified that this feeling is Fear of it not Being Good i don't know why this matters to me so much because ouj isn't really anything but also i'll die if it's bad

its so fucked up that anytime i hear jonathan bailey talk i can only think about a freaking final fantasy catboy

graha dancing through life (wicked)

i was born in nyc and raised on long island and unironically one of the reasons why i dont live there anymore is because life is so stressful and expensive... maybe some day

i was joking about this w/friends but apparently in the new chronicles of light its revealed that yshtola's dad died shortly after endwalker?? like damn i know the scions are coworkers but even coworkers tell each other about significant life events... wol is a coworker she don't even like that much

collating the volume means i have to go back through all of the past 8 chapters page by page so im just gonna put the panels i really like in here

another volume finished...

unrelated to anything but im just thinking about how rhythmic comics have to be. sometimes it feels like writing a poem or a song to me. if it doesnt have rhythm it doesnt have sauce idk how to explain it. timing is so important

toxic catboy

I got into a ffxiv themed short dnd campaign with friends so I get to finally play hldkun hehe

session 0!!!!!!!

glam restrictions dropped lowkey giving me decision paralysis now i have to think of how many good looking pieces out there i never farmed for because they weren't on the job i wanted to play

they should make lao gan ma in a squirt bottle

af gear being unlocked is wilddddd

oh btw i rolled credits on pokemon legends za and i really enjoyed it. definitely a lot of inspiration from ffxiv encounter mechanics. laughed my ass off when mega tyranitar started doing uwu landslides

if u have ever wanted a keychain of tyfiel that was not 3cm tall well i am cooking something

tinyfiel

Today is tyfiels birthday. I forgot about it

my cat is sick and i have had an exhausting weekend 🫠 send good vibes

rancid vibes between the two of these

chapter 4 of #blood&gold is up!!! v'nita and yuyang get to cross paths once again ... i really like the chapter cover this time around :) anyway, read it here-- tapas.io/episode/3699... !!!

hehe

is there a resource online that just spits out names from the ffxiv char creator name randomizer? i feel like every ffxiv name generator on the internet is *technically* following naming conventions but sometimes the names are... off, lol

whenever i saw people complaining about accidentally becoming important at work i would be like ha that'll never happen to me because i'm stupid but then everyone else in my function left such that i became the most senior person. and it also turns out that i'm not that stupid

i'm gonna be prepping quite a few things in the next month (con and volume 5 stuff) so the next chap of ouj may take a little bit to come out. depending on timing might be early next year 😳

heh heh... ouj volume 3 has been out of print for many a month... BUT NO LONGER

I don't want to sound like Guy Who Has Only Seen Boss Baby but there are ffxiv mechanics in my freaking pokemon game. They gave pokemon trio phases. it's crazy

i can now post spoilers from the last chapter so have disheveled yshtola fresh from the lifestream

chapter out now i can play pokemon

to the mangadex supporter who got ouj on the front page UHH THANK YOU?!?!? 💕

as always THANK YOU ALL for your comments on the latest ouj chapter!!! It is always so humbling for me to realize that there is honestly a pretty sizable number of people who read ouj updates as soon as they drop every time. I don't think that's something any author can take for granted

i will go back and respond to comments later but i just want to say i am making progress on maps for a ffxiv dnd campaign that will never see the light of day (assets by forgotten adventures)
