May 2023 Patreon Previews
Here is the end-of-month patreon summary for May! <3
how easy you are to need (redux) (6)
preview:
When he wasn’t sleeping, the humans held meals with him. Unperturbed by his stubborn silence, they would chatter on just as much as they had back when he’d taken refuge under their floorboards, the thread of conversation frequently derailed by quips and rambling anecdotes.
He thought he had figured it out after that first night, between the food he’d assumed was drugged and the sting of the silverware in his grip— not pure silver, but close enough to burn.
But he’d only felt more and more clear-headed as time passed, and the moment one of them had noticed his fingers spasming around a fork, they’d all kicked up a fuss and instantly swapped the silver utensils out for carefully carved wooden ones.

a weapon turned (1) [Original Work]
preview:
It was his own fault, in the end.
He’d leapt at the chance to work on a big SlireCorp facility, relishing the opportunity for employment in his field and a hefty paycheck. Sure, it was an awfully long way from any other inhabited planets, and even longer from his home or anyone he knew, but that was just a part of the dedicated security measures they had to deter any corporate espionage!
If he’d known then what sort of work they actually did, he wouldn’t have set even a single claw onboard their blighted transit vessel, let alone agreed to live at their physical on-planet facility.
Of course, by the time he found out, it was already too late.

to taste your beating heart (8)
preview:
Anx hadn’t really believed the hunters about the whole ‘protecting the innocents’ thing.
Sure, he believed they believed it, but that didn’t necessarily make it true. There were all sorts of ways to ‘save’ someone, and there were all sorts of reasons to deem someone guilty instead of innocent. Especially if that someone happened to be a monster.
Hunters were hunters. They could try and use pretty words to conceal the truth of their occupation all they wanted, but it wouldn’t fool Anx.
They’d realize he couldn’t give them what they wanted soon enough, and then he’d be fair game; subject to however they actually treated the other vamps they ran into.
That’s what he’d thought, anyhow.

taking the fall (6)
preview:
Bewilderingly, Roman was now in the possession of a sword.
He’d been dumbfounded when the demand had been accepted, so certain in requesting it that he’d finally found a hole in the too-good-to-be-true arrangement that Logan had been presenting.
It didn’t count as an actual deal, he had told himself. Obviously, the human wouldn’t actually give his captive a hand-crafted weapon, which meant he wasn’t planning on fulfilling his end of the deal.
Thus, Roman was under no obligation to stick to the terms, and could make his grand escape without besmirching his honor!
Just over a week later, there was a sword hilt in his hand and a considerable amount of screaming in his head.
Had he really just signed himself up for a heaping helping of Stockholm Syndrome, all for the sake of a sword?
… Admittedly, it was a really nice sword.

helpless (7)
preview:
Janus managed to bite three different people before they finally pinned him in one place long enough to force the makeshift muzzle over his head.
He didn’t regret it, persay, but the little victory would have been far more gratifying if he hadn’t gotten his head slammed into a wall hard enough to make him see stars right afterwards.
If it weren’t for the cobbled-together gag, he would have started swearing. It was already extremely unlikely that he’d make it out of this particular clusterfuck unscathed, and seeing double certainly wasn’t going to improve his odds.

Thanks so much to everyone who’s supported me this month, and I hope this June proves to be an excellent pride month! :)

My 2022 summary!
links to the drawings featured:
January||February||March||April||May||June||July||August||September||October||November||December
My main drawing style (the one I do in standard commissions) is leading to a softer feel it seems. (Admittingly, whether that is a good direction or not is something I'm concerned about.)
All this time I was wondering why my anatomy seemed off and only while this grid was made did I finally figure what it was! I can't unsee it and I feel extremely bad for the people who commissioned the drawings with that flaw. hkafkdslh. :/ I am so sorry. orz I am really hoping it could pass off as just a stylistic anatomy. ;-;
Just a bit more rambling about plans under the cut
> I've decided to completely discontinue subscription stuff. (The Patreon and Ko-fi subscriptions.) It's just, basically being paid a bunch of commissions (drawing rewards) in advance isn't a good arrangement for me. It gets me very antsy having a queue that are all already paid, and it's a little hard to focus on the current piece. (There are other causes as to why the patreon/ko-fi are being stopped. But I think that's the biggest reason.)
The patreon page will still be around until I posted all of the drawings I owe from the people there. Just no more new subscriptions this year.
> I miiiiiight still be taking a few doodle/sketch requests though. This time for the general public. But, like, please don't expect much on that! That might get jinxed or something.
> Due to a sudden major happening in real life, I'm considering making commissions a full time.
Wishful 2023, everybody! Best of luck this year! 🎉
