[SakuraBot Mode: ACTIVATED]

Crawling outta the rubble to post I think my first selfie on here? I actually exist! Or something!

I was trying on the bodysuit for a WIP cosplay, grabbed the skirt for a laugh, & completely stopped in my tracks because damn now that's a LOOK!! 💮🤖💖

...Alright I've been trying to edit this post down for a couple days because I don't want this to come off like an advertisement but I gotta be a heartfelt sap for a moment. It's my nature, can't help it. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️ Skirt review & personal ramblings under the cut:

Shoutout to @shopwitchvamp seriously. This skirt immediately replaced the cargo pants I've been living in the last few years. The fabric is so lovely & comfortable, the deep pockets are amazing, AND I can temperature-regulate in this crazy unpredictable weather!!! Hell yeah!

My partner got this skirt for me as a birthday gift because it reminds me of the digital sakuras in Night City that I keep using for virtual photoshoots but also in this Hot Topic Hello Kitty kinda way that just speaks to my millenial soul (🖤🎀🖤) I mean, obviously I'm in love with the design but the weight & texture & movement really made it an insta-fave in a very meaningful way for me.

And then I realized this is the first new piece of clothing I've owned since pre-pandemic. My body's changed so much that basically nothing fits. I had one pair of pants left that was at its limit and for years I've wore it like a uniform everytime I went outside with a baggy shirt to cover up. I got this skirt and suddenly I was styling outfits again, like wtf?!

So my partner & I realized how desperately our depressed neurodivergent asses needed:

new clothes that actually fit

with comfortable textures & fun patterns

that are actually functional & made to last

preferably from small businesses we respect

...And now we text each other about WV restocks lmao

The only problem is that because we couldn't afford anything from the Feb preorders, we figured we'd save up & see what came back in stock next month. Except it came in a month early. So LUCKILY we've already been saving up for this because now I'm waiting for my second skirt & partner's first joggers to be delivered today! And then they restocked more yesterday! And then they announced more restocks next week! Oof ouch our wallets but at least today's payday and now we actually have fun comfy clothes that fit to celebrate our 10 year anniversary together in a few months! 💕

Thank you, WitchVamp! We love you! Now if you'll excuse me I need to go sit by the front door like

"C'mon package... Maybe if I just... ~Booweeoop!~ No? Alright, check the tracking number..."

#selfie #witch vamp #feeling like a cyberpunk character catch me in night city lighting incense with misty in the esoterica 🖤 #lol my partner saw this in my drafts & said “alright Peni” so also catch me in a spidermech repairing gadgets & gizmos a-plenty 💮🤖💖

#i just picture friends across the street (knowing damn well she's in a photoshoot) holding up a sign like #“WE'RE GOING FOR DONUTS HOW MANY DO YOU WANT?” #and she's trying to be professional with a sly “2!✌💕” then back to posing but changes her mind & mini-panics like “NO WAIT! 3!!!” #aww yeah donuts! 🍩🍩🍩 #alternatively fans spotted her mid-photoshoot & started snapping pics so now she's trying to pose for both at the same time lmao #oc: venus #cyberpunk 2077 #photomode #virtual photography #virtual photoshoot #video game art #my v #oc #mtf v #genderfluid v #nomad v

high fantasy cyberpunk crossover au where you hire V for a super secret stealth mission, make sure it's fully understood how critical it is to stay silent & unseen, then check your scrying pool for updates & just see this

A tribute to all the VIPs of VP!

This was my first virtual photoshoot this year & I'm honestly not sure I would've bothered if it weren't for all of you. It's been so much genuine fun despite all the usual fandom chaos and current events chaos worldwide. These last few years have been unspeakably difficult but I know that's true for most people nowadays so I really appreciate having a reason to create & connect. Anyway this is getting sappier than I intended so I'mma get back to my usual chaos but yeah.

You're awesome & I appreciate you.

💖
