…by the by, still waiting on the mystery plush reveal, but… welp. Hello, Drop Tower. I’ll do the other if we get Maestro plush.

Kings Island has revealed its new family ride for 2026 - and it's a callback to the park's past, with help from Sally Dark Rides.

At Holiday World Random person, to me: “Do you work here?” Me, wearing a Kings Island shirt and glasses strap: …???

Bringing this back. For. Yanno. Reasons. #kingsisland #phantomtheater

Stephen: Clueless. Doesn’t get he’s being flirted with and just thinks they’re being super friendly. Jayih’a: Firmly states he’s not interested. Cab: Probably initiated the flirting in the first place.

Some lights on Boo Blasters shots from Coasterstock this year. Can’t say I’ll really miss this ride (it’s needed a refurb for a while now), but this was a fun experience. #kingsisland

…so, how we feeling, KI folks? #kingsisland

Dang, where’s my old “evict Boocifer” doodle…?

Been thinking about a project I’ve been wanting to do for a long while now. I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned it before? Anyhoo, need a look for the lead, so here’s some doodles, feeling things out.

Been a week so far. I miss Gen Con. So here’s a couple more pics.

I. Still haven’t finished the 7.2 story. 😅 But! Will still be following the traditional 2-week spoiler ban, just in case.

Originally hearing rather than seeing, but it’s been fun as a FFXIV fan seeing Jonathan Bailey popping up in so many things these days. Like “that’s our catboy!”

Whew. Long but enjoyable few days at Gen Con. Games were played. Puppets were made and did karaoke. Items were auctioned or sold. Buttons, dice set, and Cup. were acquired. Buttons were traded. And only a few poor financial decisions were made.

Saw Fantastic Four tonight. Really enjoyed it! Between this and Superman, I really hope we do get more embracing of comic book goofiness in superhero movies. I still need to stew on it a bit over if I like F4 more than Thunderbolts, but it’s definitely a good time.

More ideas: -Element of Harmony -Lantern Corps color -FFXIV Grand Company -Soul Jam -Pokemon type -Camp Half-Blood cabin

I swear, every year the tea shops have the best pins in the Gen Con Pin Bazaar…

…two weeks late do I realize I forgot to do a 1st anniversary doodle for Dawntrail. 😭 Here’s the ones I did for Shadowbringers and Endwalker. I’ll do a belated one if I get time!

have you considered:

I want planning on doing Art Fight, but I’m seeing everyone else getting ready and I’m feeling the itch… … …plus I gotta claim Team Fossil.

Forgot to post this here, oops. The Usher and Ygor. I do love me some strange li’l Universal guys. I dunno, I just think they’d get along. (Also, disclaimer: I do not condone violence against rowdy theater patrons! …but you know Julian would HATE that trend.) #hhn #darkuniverse

This man is the lead of the next Marvel movie, appearing in the next Avengers flick, one of the leads of a major HBO series, and is The Mandalorian and when every Hollywood PR hack would go "HEY PEDRO BABY SHHH ABOUT THE TRANS STUFF" he won't shut up and I will love him for it forever

Another Pride doodle: Stephen and Daniel, two of my oldest characters. They’ve been together pretty much from the start. #pridemonth

Happy Pride! Another doodle, this time of my first WoL, Cab. #ffxiv #pridemonth

Time for an outfit swap.

FFXIV is trying out Bluesky! 🦋 Follow us and 🔁 while you're here so you and fellow Warriors of Light never miss #FFXIV news on Bluesky! For our fans around the world, be sure to check out our regional accounts as well! ❤️ @fr.finalfantasyxiv.com @de.finalfantasyxiv.com @jp.finalfantasyxiv.com

Happy Pride! Gonna try to do some doodles of some of my OCs with their flags (or just the colors!) First up: The Bat!

Favorite things overheard at Coasterstock: A Mystic Timbers line attendant telling someone wearing a Beast hoodie “Sorry, we don’t allow those on this ride.” A person on the train in front of us on Orion after the ride op asked if they wanted the lights off: “I don’t wanna see shit!”

So, didn’t get into HoliWood Nights, but did do Coasterstock. Honestly? My FOMO went away pretty quick. I had an amazing time with some amazing people.

Apparently you can just upload PDFs and host them as flipbooks! So here is the Garlond Ironworks Zine I ran a few years ago, since Bluesky never got to see it. (This does contain a nsfw section in the back, but it's labeled.) heyzine.com/flip-book/cb... #ffxivzines

So. Saw the new Lilo & Stitch. It was. Okay. Not the best of the remakes I’ve seen, but not the worst? The ending was… not great, but. It wasn’t as bad as I’d feared? Maybe in part because I was expecting it. I’ll still take the original any day. Jumba, Bubbles, and David were all done dirty.

Labyrinthos day theme. That weird… whistle-y, chirpy sound is SO grating. I also have a love-hate thing with Pa-Paya. I have it saved on my phone mostly to annoy my husbando. But when it came up on my playlist while driving once and I didn’t have a way to skip… youtu.be/j2cV4qc3lYo

Have I been to Epic Universe yet? No. Have I been vicariously enjoying Ygor content? …yes. Quick doodle that got away from me. #epicuniversefanart #darkuniverse #ygor #ygordarkuniverse #darkuniverseygor

Tiny merch news: I have some keychains on the way. They’re repeat designs, but in different sizes. The Ironworks crew is a tiny bit smaller. G’raha is a tiny bit bigger. Also will finally have Black Mage of Ronka from my usual place, so will be in better quality.

I tend to draw Stephen more chibi-ish than his model. I do this with all Lalas, tho Jayih’a’s hair is floofier and his face is rounder. I also always forget the marks on the side of his face, usually behind his hair, so they may as well just not be there Nothing big with Cab, really

Best thing about Nero? Two words: Praetorium puns. …also had we actually called Cid and Nero to come help Kokkol Dankkol with the starship IN THE FIRST PLACE, the rest of Eorzea wouldn’t have had to take on the world’s biggest fetch quest for us. And it would have been even better. YES STILL SALTY.

Emet-Selch was one of the characters I was especially proud to work on for the set. One of the greatest «villains » with a fantastic character building. So I paid a lot of attention to his pose and expression here. #MTG #MTGxFinalFantasy #FFXIV

[ffxiv] playing house

Enjoying Monster Con so far! May have slight bias over the theme and the fact Liam and Zoe are back. I expected Nico to be my favorite of the new ROs, but… they’re not. I’m just kinda indifferent to them? Wasn’t sure what to think of Omen in the lead up, but… best girl. 100%

So, for the last couple years, I’ve pretty much built the list just from suggestions. But, sometimes, I’ll pull a “my list, my pick” on a coaster. This would have been that coaster this year, but it actually did get suggested several times. XD

#coastermaynia2025 thread, go! Doing portraits rather than full designs in the interest of time.

Sigh. Want to do some coaster prompts, but having a nagging idea with silly, creepy li’l Universal guys. Guess we’ll see which wins out. XD

I think I finally may have this guy’s full superhero name, whoo! Gonna sit on it for a while, tho, to make sure I like it. I also realized he also comes from my love of “goofy blonde spiky-haired anime guys with a hard past who just wanna do good” a’la Vash the Stampede or Ginji from GetBackers…

I… need to actually do some Coaster Maynia prompts. 😅 May just pick and choose based on interest/time this year.

Non-Bunary

Read the amphitheater name as “Min Khetto’s” when I started and I still call it that. Also my FC has nicknames for most Ascians, some because of this. Mitron = Milton Elidibus = Edibles Nabriales = Nabisco (also Mr. Krabs for unrelated reasons)

Have I ever shown y’all my posing figures? They just chill on my desk, usually in weird poses when I don’t need them. Figma Archetype is currently hugging a Hades body pillow while Body-Kun is doing the WoL “punch fist” emote.

Think I have the coasters for this year’s list ready, just need to actually build the list. Hopefully tonight! I did opt to follow the poll regarding KI, since it wasn’t really close. Also, yes, there will be a Day 0 for Ka, cos special circumstances.

Friendly neighborhood librarian here. Need a supernatural school story for you or any kiddos in your life? Monster High G3 cartoon. It’s cute, cozy, and inclusive.

What the heck, other OCs of mine that are under the ace umbrella! Miles is ace (and probably panromantic - he’s still kinda figuring things out). Like the WoL based off of him, Doc JP is also demi.
