Spooky season has arrived 🎃👻🦈 #art #halloween #sharks

Daily bunny no.3094 has been caught red-handed

Still September where I'm sitting even if AO3's in a later timezone. A little bit of Tweezle and Nero silliness in "Testing on Live Systems" A vignette originally written for FFXIV Write 2022.

From "Some Kind of Stranger Come Inside" (a NSFW Thancred/Lahabrea fic)

This can be absolutely crushing (and, in some cases, unbelievably cruel). Once upon a time, I was a young writer and I had finished my first novel and had printed out a draft for my (not-yet-)ex. As we were breaking up and I was packing my shit I asked, "Do you want me to leave this for you?"🧵

Dangerbun: Old enough to know better, young enough to do it anyway, and getting to be old enough that her body tells her she shouldn't have the next morning. Smolcat: Old enough for things to not be weird/creepy/gross and young enough to be a favorite baby sister to B'alith.🧵

Mycella Nightcap It's getting close to my favorite spooky season and my head is full of art ideas sprouting like mushrooms ahahaha #Witch #Mushroom #art #painting #illustration

Bad things

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This day honours and remembers the children who were forced into Canada's Residential School system. It was first observed as Orange Shirt Day in 2013 and was elevated to a statutory holidy for federal workers in 2021.

It me!

Daily bunny no.3091 was a little overdue

I follow in-game canon and lore until I do not. I flesh in things that are left unsaid (extended Viera lore, fr'ex). I play w/where my OCs who are not WoLs might touch (or be touched by) the MSQ. I play w/what-ifs appropriate to the character (Smolcat on the source when B'alith goes to the first)🧵

We are being fucking sundered...

Reading this article and screaming and pointing and underline and bold and THIS THIS THIS: We need to be self-sustaining through mutual appreciation, the cycle of fic to art to podfic to new art to sharing links to new fic to meta to headcanon and eventually fanon that eclipses canon truths.

A Little Help From My Friends • WoL & Alisaie Leveilleur • ~1.5k words • Gen B'alith needs a little help tackling his greatest challenge to date: writer's block. For #FFXIVFinishItFall, and for the anniversary of B'alith and Zhai'a's handfasting. 🖤 #FFXIVWriters #FFXIVFanfic

A bit of a Smolcat fic set at some point towards the end of ARR, probably, though it could probably be set nearly anywhen... "A Hilarious Case of Mistaken Identity"

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice. Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT." IT IS ART. YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.

From this morning's walk to get coffee... I prefer my sodas warm/room temperature so this delights me on a lot of levels.

LRP: Smolcat

I don't think motivating people to move to other platforms to avoid the stupid censorship rules is a good solution. Quite the opposite. There is NO SAFE space for artists nowadays, if we don't fight back this will only get worse and worse
