I haven't been super active here or on social media in general recently. I'm just socially drained and haven't had the energy to try and put myself out there. That being said, I'm wishing everyone well! Here are more pics of my little Mavis!

Lazy weekend quickie because I missed them :) #ffxiv #ffxivart #emet-selch

Unpublished fanart of yukata Jade that I made in 2022 #tales #テイルズ #fanart

Dreamy eyes 🦋 Used on the new pinned #yumesky #siegirce #rareharmony

Azemet angst #wip because my art has been so fluffy lately :)

Adopted this lady a little under a week ago! Her name is Mavis and I love her!

This morning’s sketch has me feeling so warm <3 I can’t believe how happy I am to get back to drawing regularly again #wip

🥳🎂✨ #ocart

Oh, you know, just out here losing my mind #wip

Girl dad Hades. Nature is healing 💜💅 #ffxiv #ffxivart #emetselch

I got sad thinking about my fave’s lore, so I drew him as a girl dad to cheer up, but I think I just made it worse 😔

I'm realizing that I'm not entirely okay. Since 2020, I lost my cat, my spouse has long COVID, my mom died, my uncle died, my grandma died and my other cat died, friendship dynamics have changed and I feel a constant sense of anxiety that I will lose someone. I'm mentally drained

Been a while since I posted, and I haven’t completed new art because life (ToT) so here is another oldie that I plan to redraw/clean up someday. Get you a friend that loves you like Hythlodaeus loves his friends 🖤 Hoping to share new art soooooon :) #ffxiv #ffxivart #Hythlodaeus

This was so fun ugh…! I can’t wait to see what else summer inspires 🥰 #ffxiv #ffxivart #azemet

Getting notifs of this post reminded me to post the drafts I had of an old Jade/Dist (I call them Alcoholic Rose) fic I wrote in 2022! I've been posting some old cringe fics onto AO3 since last month I forgot to tell you lol I'm not a good writer though! 🫣

Initial sketch vs. final piece <3

APTAIN BASCH FON RONSENBURG OF DALMASCA

Jade is, obviously, Jade haha! My birthstone is Ruby, but I have always resonated with aquamarine and, so, Larae is aquamarine. ^^

I got nothing… here’s a #wip that involves Eshii kissing Exarch 🤷🏻‍♀️

I absolutely adore how this came out!! Thank you!! I am so grateful to you for going out of your way to do this! I love them in your style so much!!

Sharing because “Jade Curtiss mentioned” which brought this old art up in the gc, so it has to go here now, but how do I even tag this thing lmao #ffxiv #ffxivart #talesoftheabyss #emetselch #jadecurtiss #eviloldmen ????

I absolutely adore how this came out!! Thank you!! I am so grateful to you for going out of your way to do this! I love them in your style so much!!

Everyone I share my life with is very aware and supportive of how normal and reasonable I am ok????? And yes, inside was red velvet with white frosting to match the mask. This was so sweet and fun ♥️ Thank you to my little brother and far-away friends for a beautiful belated birthday 🥰♥️

Can I draw very Valentine’s Day coded art in May? #ffxiv #ffxivart #Azemet

Day 5 - Halcyon Days Strangers and star-crossed lovers. Inspired by one of my all-time favorite paintings, “The Kiss,” by Francesco Hayez. I hope you feel what I felt painting this one… Do you recognize the figure in the background? <3 #emetwolweek25 #emetwol #azemet #emetselch #ffxiv #ffxivart

Official Topaz Render™️ I tried to make another artwork imitating Fujishima to match with Jade! It doesn't look as convincing as the chibi but I still loved how it turned out

Day 1 – Dream 🌌✨ SAY IT WITH YOUR CHEST Second contribution to today’s Emetwol week prompt (and def more lighthearted than the other!!) I loved loved loooooovvvveeeddd drawing this one!!! ;u; <3 #emetwolweek25 #emetwol #azemet #emetselch #ffxiv #ffxivart

Old art of that one time I spent a lot of hours drawing Eshii in her Dancer glam as Venat’s music box (it’s playing “Flow” 🥹) #ffxiv #ffxivart I would like a second chance or at least touch up for this one day… one day. Not today.

Larae sometimes worries that she isn't good enough or smart enough for Jade. She loves him dearly, but she struggles to imagine that she has much, if anything, to offer him.

Soft and sweet #Azemet pillow talk 💞💫 #ffxiv #ffxivart

Wip of some soft #azemet :)🌸

Definitely do!

Them 😭🥹 forever and ever and ever and ever #wip

If I were to open commissions, would you support them? Request something or share them? I can render in 2 different ways. I could also do lineart only for a cheaper price. Even doodles if you can't afford that much #artistsonbluesky #artsky

I drew this a few days ago, but I made a chibi Topaz made to fit with the official chibi Jade drawn by Fujishima! It's for a new Yume intro I've been working on since August lol #RareHarmony #ocart #yumesky

More Monster Hunter Jade Curtiss screens! (Please understand, I love him too much...) I love the side eye Larae is giving in one of them and the look of complete resignation they both have when dealing with the Wud Wuds xD

Idk… I thought it was sweet and funny so I made it 🤷🏻‍♀️ #ffxiv #ffxivart #Emetselch

More Monster Hunter Jade Curtiss... The return of my Rise Glam but tweaked! So glad they brought the Guild Cross armor back!

I've successfully replaced my old Jade Curtiss screens with ones where he's wearing his glasses! XD I don't have a problem! Monster Hunter Wilds.

I finally have Jadeo's glasses! Monster Hunter Wilds Jade Curtiss is complete! <3

I love him… but I love terrorizing him…… w h y?????

I suppose I can try and be social... My name is Heather, but I prefer my middle name, Larae. I play as Jade' Curtiss in FF14 (Ada) and I main Red Mage and Sage. I'm not great at being social, but I'm happy to meet people. I tend to lurk on these apps and mostly post JadeXLarae prompts. Hello!

#wip because drawing has been so hard lately… my HANDS won’t comply, and they hurt lately… but Hyth’s puppy energy makes it a little more bearable 🥺

@drmambo199.bsky.social SAY IT FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK JAAADDDDEEEEEOOOO

To any of my friends who have wondered why I have been distant, it isn't anything personal. I have experienced a lot of change and loss over the course of the last year or so and I'm, frankly, just drained. It's difficult for me to motivate myself to reach out. I am sorry. I don't mean to be cold

#wip for some panels that I’m hoping to wrap up tomorrow, but I loved this shot so much I wanted to give it its own spotlight 💞 #azemet
