A small bundle of pink carnations clustered about a rolled ofuda, tied with a simple black ribbon.

Send my muse some flowers and they'll react to their meaning

Pink Carnation — “I’ll never forget you.”

For what felt to be minutes stretched into hours, I looked at the ofuda and the flowers adorning it, considering the meaning behind them. It was held in my hands, light as a feather it would be for some, but heavy in my own as I absentmindedly brushed the silken ribbon; it was during this time that I was not in the present time of my life, but had wandered elsewhere, to another place, another existence.

I saw the shrine a few paces before me under the beautiful glow of moonlight. The stone stairs glittered silver as water trickled down the steps from the rainshower earlier. Leading me towards it were the tōrō, aglow with the flicker of flame and firefly light burning against the dark.

I squeezed the ofuda, remembering the ones father said permeated with a kami's power, and how I would help distribute them for protection at the time. The image filled me with warmth and sorrow all the same; those days were bygone now.

Since then, I have worked on helping rebuild what was once lost. Perhaps someone remembered me from then, the young girl training to be a miko, the one who was swallowed by the river and sank into its depths ..

The black ribbon beckons my attention, after all, it is the color of mourning.

To know that someone out there perhaps remembers me from a former life, of a time before war ravaged our lands, I could not help but wonder..

..if they were aware of what became of me.

#ffxiv #ask prompts #oh the addition of the ofuda gave me ideas #and the color of the ribbon #I love it thank you so much for sending it!

Ok but imagine dragon!Zhongli fills you up with eggs and by the time they hatch you end up with a bunch of tiny baby dragons squirming around like worms. What'd you do then??

WHAT'D I DO?? TAKE CARE OF MY CHILDREN OF COURSE???

"Worms", the audacity they are dragons and they are my precious babies omg

But fr tho imagine like a dozen of tiny baby noodles with a bit of fur and tiny stubby horns just curling up on your lap or around you as you sleep, draped around your shoulder, on top of your head (and Zhongli's) that is so cute pls too adorable. 💕

I'd imagine they'd be still too weak/young to fly let alone shapeshift so they're housebound, zhongli and you have to take turns watching them and going out to do stuff. Also since they're dragons/reptiles they wouldn't need milk?? rather probably just smol pieces of meat or like soft food aaaaaaaaaaaa too cute imagine feeding them with a spoon carefully.

Until they start teething that it, then they become lil menaces, biting everything on sight including each other when play fighting and/or their father (lmao) Zhongli would make small crystals they can bite into instead of destroying everything 💕

Speaking of their father imagine Zhongli feeling the urge to take dragon form just so he can curl around them and soothe them in a way they'd be more instinctually comfortable with (PAPA DRAGON ZL INSTINCTS RUNNING WILD IMAGINE HIM LICK-BATHING THEM SVCGAHBAK 🥺💕💕💕) tho they 1000% recognize you as mama and like to burrow in your hair or under your shirt (babies noooo) and just be close to/on top of you at all times

JUST A BUNCH OF TINY NOODLE BABY DRAGONS I WOULD WEEP I WOULD CRY like I did these???? I made them with my husband?? my babies??

smth like this is you will AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

#crys answers #PLS IMAGINE JUST TRYING TO CARRY A BUNCH OF BABY NOODLES AND THEY GET TANGLED TOGETHER AND AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA #I would adore being a dragon mama #zl can fill me up with eggs yep yep indeed #imagine their tiny scales and manes would have different shades of brown and whatever your hair color is #and at first you tell them apart by that #IMAGINE ONCE THEY LEARN TO FLY THO OH GOD #zhongli and you herding a bunch of floating ribbons #pls this is too cute I love it

Commission for Yeezusboii who wanted their character (Sam) enjoying a Pabst Blue Ribbon and smoking a cigarette in an 80s style living room, while wearing some 80s attire too, of course. :3 I really enjoyed coloring this one, with how atmospheric and mellow it is. It seems whenever I do commissions for him, they always turn out fantastic. Some commissioners just have that energy for some reason, haha.

Process pics and a full-res copy are available on my Patreon!

the gangs all here!!!

#kagarts #rival silver #trainer kris #trainer ethan #trainer lyra #johto #pokemon gsc #pokemon hgss #I think it’s fascinating seeing so many interpretations of this bunch #on who is champion or what each of them do in postgame/timeskip scenarios #it’s really cool seeing so many variations of each like. hell yeah man #here’s a lot of factoids on designs sorry for the wall of text in advaaaaaance #lance picked silver’s main cape color and chose white so he would appear less intimidating and approachable when teaching kids about dragons #lugia matchy too for that dragon connection there #kris’ gear revolves around biking and the lil tassles were an attempt at suicune ribbons #she has aspects from all the lion dogs in her full fit (she gets a helmet and jet/boostpack)#channeling kamen rider and bomb rush cyberfunk/jet set radio to give her a more future vibe #ethan I personally wanted to channel the ken sugimori chill vibe of how he was drawn #very old school (college fit); with a bit of early age grunge #friend to all birds and does a bit of nature/wildlife photography (based on the hgss picture taking feature!)#also loves the pokeathlon #he gets a ho-oh pattern/colorset for his tracksuit #lyra in this interpretation is the champion and got to battle red #protag to protag communication happened and she wants to set a better example for trainers going forward #a great teacher who wants to encourage the next set of trainers to set out on their own journeys #she’ll be the champion until she has to pass that torch on #but she also cares for the ilex shrine as per family tradition (even taking that with her into her champion outfit! celebi dresssss :D)

Headless Headmistress Bloodgood redesign!

I've been wanting to redesign her for a while, in a way that would marry the aspects from each of her designs that I like. I'm pretty happy with how she turned out!

At some point I would like to design some more Monster High teachers and staff, because no matter what gen, that school is struggling.
