I learned how to use a new toy today~ Used a neat little remotely piloted robotic spotlight instead of my usual full followspot~ >>~<<

The spider is scurrying about the theater once again, tending to all of my lights~ It feels nice, having a calling that feeds my core, rather than draining from it. uuwuu Though the weeks spent away from my nest and games are admittedly a bit saddening, no diving for the spider..~

Fufufu, my nest grows more comfy still. Needed to get some new tools for new furniture though aawaa

I even scavenged an ancient little VR headset, which is kinda fun~ I tried out a few silly little games that were on sale, and found that I have very poor aim with actual ironsights ::3 I always aim a little too high, misalign the sights >>.>>

I’m coming out of a pretty bad year in a bad spot, but moved to a new nest and where I’ll be safer, and hopefully happier~ Things slowly improve, from the bottoms of all bad situations it seems.

aawaa I live again

The spider, finally free of the binding webs of the work rush, has been stricken down by cobid. I’ve had it for a handful of days now, but am finally better enough to have semi rational thought and clear enough vision to see what I’m typing. ;;-;; Hope will get better soon. Please stay safe dears~

As I’ve been recovering from December, I ended up picking up Ship Graveyard Simulator, and gods below, is it the perfect sort of itch for my methodical brain. It has the scale I wanted out of Shipbreaker, with it’s own little spin on the genre. Has left me in much improved spirits than usual~

I think I’m slowly projecting my desire for more board games onto those around me, like five different people got one this year. Maybe it’s just a subconscious excuse to go and spend time with someone learning their games, rather than luring people into my nest to capture them and play stuff I own~

Mmh, got time to actually spend time with friends, both yesterday and today, if at least a bit~ The break from toil has been greatly enjoyed, gave me the much needed time to handle scurrying about for gift shopping~ I hope all of you are having a good time for the holidays, and enjoying yourselves~

Sorry for going so quiet all month dears, I’ve been working with little to no rest and just about as much sleep for most of November and December. It’s a really busy time for me, and the biggest performance we put together all year~ I look forward to spending time with frens after, am doing okay~

This has honestly been something kicking around the back of my brain for a long time. I even have a handful of the technical aspects of how some systems would work for it, and how each Guild Master (DM) would be able to contribute when not playing their adventurers. One day I’ll have the time for it

The bug of the day is🎉 The golden Tortoise beetle

I took the time amidst the nature things and the time I spent working to step back and play something calmer, narrative heavy. It gives a mind space to process, alongside a little spark of joy in creation~ All in all, Slay the Princess was my choice for it this time, and it was a lovely experience.

I find it kind of funny that I don’t even wear my robes for decency or warmth, it’s honestly just to have a hood to tuck all my hair into so it doesn’t try to invade my food >>.>>

A week of rest, and tentative writing~ I have so many swirling ideas for different hooks and plot-lines and fun ways to explore bits of backstory, but where exactly to start is something that always has, and currently is, stumping me. The ideas clash and swirl in the webs that makes up my brain 😖

And with that, there’s sorting all the new cards from The Dream-Eaters into the rest of my collection so far~ Lots of new fun ideas swirling around for the next time I kidnap enough dears to play~ This was honestly a very relaxing capstone to my night, I’m a very happy spider. #ArkhamHorrorTCG

Got myself a little treat for surviving the last week of weaving an Opera together~ The collection slowly expands, growing close and closer to it’s final shape of completion~ Hm, I just realized I haven’t posted my board game collection on here yet, maybe after my next grand sorting and cleaning.

Mmh~ I finally had time to properly rest, no surprise sickness, only light soreness, and a period of prolonged unconsciousness after the trenches of daily life’s obligations and necessities~ Managed to fall asleep without a problem, which is rare for my skittering self~

Maybe sleeping in wasn’t he best idea in hindisght >>~>> Gave this form of mine a taste of rest in excess and now it’s grumpy at me for getting back up at my normal time. It craves the comfort of bed, the stillness of rest. Such needy little things, our bodies~ ::3

I decided to Categorize the Vtubers I follow and watch into Phylum's of the animal Kingdom. I ran into a slight issue when I got to some of the Cryptids and other creatures but I think I improvised well. Note if anyone knows of a Nematoad or Flatworm Vtuber let me know.

I finally have a day off~ I forgot what sleeping in feels like. >>.>> I hope all of you are taking care of yourselves, and to those who are already in it, or might be interested in board games, I might be hosting a game night again when this contract is over on the 28th, so somewhere 29th forward~

Was tagged by Kurvasi and Aresima~ 5 faves / 5 tags Food: Thin Grittle-Fried Goetta Season: Winter Drink: Orange Juice, Citrus Colour: Deep Violet Anime: Overlord/Code Geass @orvarodds.bsky.social @akujiazure.bsky.social @exarchauri.bsky.social @sunderedant.bsky.social @anomalace.bsky.social

Good morning friends~ Another early morning for the spider, and with all my scurrying to and fro this morning, I was curious if any of you had any neat or unique comfort spaces~ The thought struck me when I realized how safe and comfy I felt laying under all the supports and rafters understage~

The lead actress (Big spooky coven leader witch lady) is almost seven feet tall and has to look down at even me for once when handing off props between scenes, this is a strange feeling >>///>>

How did everyone pick their username or Vtuber name? Well, Luxia came from the Latin word for light, combined with my avatar’s original name when she was a TTRPG character, Ariia~ There’s a neat little lore reason that I haven’t finished refining yet~ Caretaker is easy, I love caring for others. <3

Eeeeeeeeeeeee! <3 My favorite lil guy ;;^;; Thank you Hanzo sweetie 🕸🖤🕸

I helped birb make the character behind this, and one more as well, for another dear I’ll be running for~ They made such unique and interesting critters~ Am excitedly learning to run the new system they’re for between work and such~

[EMERGENCY COMMISSIONS] My current job just notified me that I have one week left to work there and that everyone will be fired because we are new management, I'm looking for ANY work to do since I am the one who pays for majority of bills PLEASE SHARE THIS #EmergencyCommissions #CommissionsOpen

Got a silly little treat to myself for my breaks, and am having fun working on Macbeth so far~ A busy day for a weary arachnid uuwuu I hope all of you dears are taking proper care of yourselves, and have a nice night~

Hope you all are having a lovely day~ I wanted to show yall the very first art of Luxia as a character, in this case, Ariia, the TTRPG character she is based on~ The corset was designed by a close friend, and the rest was a spitball of dozens of visual ideas from over the campaign~

Hmhm, alriiiight, been tagged pf two of these now, I should probably do one~ Post a GIF pf a character you like, maybe ever tag some friends to see what their interests are~ @er73.bsky.social @charliewolfi.bsky.social @qu33n-of-lies.bsky.social @golias.bsky.social @hanzoravenspear.bsky.social

This is a cute idea for a trend, I might want to try this one at some point~

Also, Sleeper Citizen demo finished, and the entire stress, crew, and contract system is amazing~ The way they individualized the classes actually having permanent advantages and disadvantages over each other is also super nice~ I’m extremely happy with the experience overall, and even more excited~

Ah yes, in the interest of slowly migrating all of my old pieces of Luxia over, here’s one I had already posted earlier, but wanted to have here anyhow~ A slim little butterfly, delicate as the silk I weave together~

I just started playing the Sleeper Citizen 2 demo and I am soooo damn happy with it. It kept the formula and style, while executing it in a whole new way, I can’t wait until it comes out~

Aravynne x Volcarona design merge! (2 forms) #ArtVynne #Vtuber

I swear, anytime I’m sick I tap into some latent ability to adjust the flow of time, with no ability to control which way it swings. It’s either days blinking by until I’m better, or minutes stretching into hours, no in between >>~>>

Ah, almost forgot to post my banner as well, another gift from the garden skitterer Kaiku, and probably one of my favorite pieces overall~ The chitin, the eyes, it feels so strange seeing a character in one’s mind given physical form, and it’s something that made me indescribably happy~

Good morn everyone~ I may be sick enough to bury me eternally in bed, but I can still start moving over the handful of lovely little comms and gifts I’ve uploaded on twitter over the years~ Will probably do that over the next while ::3

Yay~ That’s a good chunk of my personal friends and a chunk of the spiders I follow and support, and I think that’s enough of a start for tonight~ Good night/morning everyone, I hope you rest well <3

Oh gods below, I have to go about finding all my friends on here now, don’t I?

It’s a pleasure to meet you, I’m Luxia, occasional streamer, full time friend~ I enjoy board games of all kinds on all platforms, and hope we can get along splendidly, maybe even play some together~ 🕸🖤🕸
