I'm in just a little bit of a holding pattern. Effectively left my job to be with Goatfuck Canuck while we wait for my residency on the Canadian side of things. Hopefully news soon because I'll get way more antsy if I haven't seen an update until after my master's commencement in a few weeks.

I'm absolutely in love with this Ko-Fi sketch from @freyadraws.bsky.social of Lucas. I was asked by a friend after if Lucas ever wears a shirt and the general impression I have with how I've designed him is no.

Officially just under one month until the wedding. I cannot express enough happiness, excitement, or nerves for it, and also immense gratitude and appreciation for the goat in this because the wedding isn't just a union, but also his coming out story outside of the fandom. It's an act of bravery.

The state of my mental health can always be tracked at a glance in two ways: How long are my fingernails? How many days/weeks/months ago is the last game played in my League of Legends match history? A new challenger arrived today: Will I reinstall Heroes of the Storm?

I'm now 28. This comes with the positives of gifts and food to offset getting older. It also comes with the negative of me receiving a wave of birthday wishes from every corporate entity I've made an account with. Most of these wishes are arriving with my dead name.

We did get the ceremony date confirmed and suit rentals and such are locked in. Just have to vibrate the next month and change away until the wedding day.

It's me, slut shaming myself when I pulled up my sleeve for my surgeon to check that my elbow was healing properly to reveal the collection of bruises and scratch marks from this past weekend.

Also this past weekend marked some official stuff for it, but I clocked somewhere around 26 hours of driving, stumbled around some hiking trails, and carried some of my cooking savvy into the camp site, but goat BF is officially my fiance. A short eloping sort of ceremony is coming next month.

We have a Patreon piece coming in this month from @oriont.bsky.social of my lizard Lucas wrapping his wrist to keep it from overstraining. I definitely am not especially enamored by the little Lacoste gator.

The conclusion to the little trip with goat coming down to see me a few weeks ago is that we're now planning a second, smaller trip for me to see him so we can go camping and get our marriage license. Just a few months away from diving into this next stage.

I would love one day at work that getting fired from my job isn't the best case scenario for my mental health.

Also, another artpiece of Ikba from @caasiaxort.bsky.social . This one depicts the cardinal out in the garden, and I've definitely grown partial to being a bit more open about the body, so this feels like a nice wink.

All of my stress left my body from the week with BF. He took my soul and a ghost home with him, I've taken his clumsiness and bad luck. Would've been a perfect experience if he didn't lose his phone and my mother didn't pry and ask who was on top completely unprompted as soon as I spoke to her.

Piece i finished for @andyoam.bsky.social Their DnD Dragonborn!

HAPPY HUMP DAAAAYYYY BROS HAHA >;-) 🦡💪🍆💪💦💦💦 Brock had a blast hangin out with Jamie and Abe doin what bros do best haha Made by the amazing @blueguynow.bsky.social

I feel like it's only a little weird that I'm more productive at work the day I'm sexting at work.

I don't think I've ever been as antsy about something as my education being verified for immigration. I want to apply real damn bad.

Miss you, bro… #nsfw

Big hunky werewolf boys with their own built-in hypno settings >>>>>> (old fanart I did for @jazzwolf.bsky.social featuring his CHEF'S KISS of an OC, Lugo!) #furry #art #nsfw

It's a thread of @oriont.bsky.social 's concept art for me. I have two novel concepts that I've been working through. The first is Severed. In the aftermath of the king's assassination, his advisors and knights went into conflict over accusations. His advisors took control and are stealing magic.

Shout-out to my ex that I broke up with for asking if I intended to make anything of myself or if I'd just be reliant on his inherited wealth. It made me angry enough that I got my bachelor's which turned into me very recently finishing my master's. It made me mad then, but it paved way for change.

And the final character is my sona Ikba Moore. They're a cardinal due to some of my sentimentality around the spiritual aspects of the bird as well as the connection to my family in general. They're also significant because I embraced my own features with them. Ref sheet and art by Jailbird.

I had first gotten connected to the fandom around 2009-2010 because I had ended up writing a -lot- of Star Fox fanfic on FFN. I actually met several people there that were -also- people writing romance between Fox and Wolf as teenagers around my age and then I found out there was a fandom for that.

Bonus posts of some artwork acquired for the BFGoat. On the left is an ugly Christmas Sweater piece by El Zorro Chino, a pride month piece by @torideer.bsky.social and a B&W by BGN.

Next up is Wyatt Hel, a werewolf that has spent enough time out in the woods that he's rather like a big puppy. He's slow to speak and slow to proximity, but heavily affectionate. The original design is by me with a bass by TwistedHound while the B&W is by BGN.

Next up is David Wilder, a Luxray who got into modeling towards the end of university. He's stuck with it and gets some notoriety for his striking eyes and sharp form. Original design by Therot and the B&W is from BGN.

To follow up Cole, we have Geoff Lee, a carpenter that has taken on Cole as a business partner and part time lover. Father of two and divorcee, he discovered his sexuality late in life and has started to find his gait. Base by TwistedHound, design by me and two B&Ws by BGN.

Cole Magnuson, an icelandic horse who is a logger that works alongside my caribou, Geoff. The two of them enjoy a close working relationship that helps stave off some of the idle boredom that can come in the spaces between in the country. Design by @meatsnacks.bsky.social and B&W by BGN.

Tresh Levett, a dingo who is blunt but attentive. He generally cares to learn more about others but finds himself soft-spoken. The original design is by coolsamsc and the YCH and stripping pieces are by BGN. He was intentionally designed to allow me to explore and understand more about my heritage.

#NSFW here, have some pogey cocks

Marcus Taylor, a dzo who's a perfectionist that seeks love and satisfaction in others. Sweet and a little sarcastic but certainly anxious and self-critical all the same. Original design by me, B&W by BGN, and solo piece by @oriont.bsky.social

Vali Mitsch, a towering eel that finds himself much more home in the water is just a bit of the monster under the bed. Charming and dangerous, he certainly benefits from his natural appeal. Design by BuniPunk from ToyHouse, sketch by @oriont.bsky.social and B&W by BGN.

I had gotten a tentative A on my thesis while he finished review, got bumped to an A+ after he fully finished. My master's is officially done and my transcripts are free to throw at immigration and jobs.

Lucas Venske, a way to explore tennis on the forefront of a character. Young, dumb, and just a bit cocky. Here we have a YCH from BGN featuring his characters Isaiah and Jamie as well as Brock from WeirdoArtPatron, his initial design from Jailbird, and an early morning pic from @oriont.bsky.social

Andy Weaver, my previous sona that I kept for 3-4 years. Dancer, ball of anxiety, and someone that thrives (unexpectedly) in the spotlight. The first three pictures include the original design and pics from @rosphix.bsky.social while the remaining is from Rokemi and features the BFgoat, Ferah.

Plan is to blast out what I have for each character day by day until I have the full collection out. I'll also shoot out personal art stuff towards the end and make my personal art it's own thread for now.

Sefter Teeg, giant otter and North American river otter hybrid, originally designed with Spelunker Sal then an alternate design with OddstheDalien with revised design done with Jailbird.

Time to repost my art by character again.
