I do art and writing. This is mostly a space for me to share stuff I like, like frogs and the color purple! I make original content as well as fanart. You can generally expect things like Fallout, FFXIV, Baldur's Gate, and Star Wars. There's also furry stuff now and then.
I try to tag intuitively. Followers are welcome to send me asks to tag specific things if they want to filter something!
While quite introverted and sometimes slowed down by a physical disability, know that I appreciate you stopping by my hoard of shinies, and any likes/reblogs/comments/asks you leave behind!
Fanart/fiction is welcome as long as attribution is given! Reblogs are welcome and encouraged, but please do not repost or reupload my art or writing anywhere.

Main OCs
main tag includes everything + aesthetics, fandom tags are au-specific only
Nate ( ffxiv / bg3 / fo4 )
The hero with a bleeding heart, Nate is a charismatic leader who loves animals and struggles with severe PTSD. He will do anything for family.
Lyra ( ffxiv / bg3 / starfield )
Lyra is a wiley and temperamental villain who's dragged kicking and screaming into a change of heart when she's forced to team up with the "good guys."
Tsimh ( ffxiv )
Tsimh is a blisteringly confident healer and bard with an amorous streak. While the matriarch lacks her little brother's wanderlust, she'll come to Nate's aid when asked.
Mal
Belongs to my partner @seasaltandcopper :3
Multi-Universe Ships
SILVER LININGS : Nate / Mal
Nate is a hand reaching out and Mal is a knife in the dark. At first glance, they have little in common. And yet, in life after life, incarnation after incarnation - even when they should be enemies, when they have every reason to hate one another, they choose love.
FIREWHISKEY : Lyra / Mal
Two hotshot rogues form an alliance of convenience, and then inconveniently fall in love. Even worse, they might just start to bring out the best in each other. They're not exactly good people... but hey, what's life without a little mischief and murder now and then?
Final Fantasy 14 Ships
VERHEART : I'lyrha / X'rhun Tia
X'rhun Tia saves an injured lass, and she asks him to teach her Red Magic. It's a common enough tale, except this time the damsel is really a notorious pirate in disguise. I'lyrha thinks this will just be another easy con... but she might have met her match in a charming Crimson Duelist.
SILVER FULLER : Nahte'to with: A'mahl / Haurche / Aymeric / Alisaie / G'raha / M'naago + Persephone / Kore / Hades
A catch-all for the various romances and trysts of two polyamorous catboys who travel the world (and save it a few times.) Variety mix. Love, loss, hope, tragedy, snark, slow burns, friends to lovers, lovers to enemies...
GUIDED BY MOONLIGHT : Tsimh / Thancred
Tsimh and Thancred are determined to make no promises to one another, except that whatever is between them is to be nothing more than a fun, temporary, diversion. Menphina laughs.
Baldur's Gate 3 Ships
BLOOD OF MY BLOOD : Lyra / Astarion
Used to looking out only for themselves, Lyra and Astarion know a thing or two about manipulation. Oh yes, they know exactly how to sacrifice, seduce, and satisfy. They're so good at their tricks, in fact, that they trick themselves right into falling in love.
STILL WATERS RUN DEEP : Naithan / Gale
Lonely hearts don't mend easy. For wandering Druid Naithan and master of the arcane Gale, navigating the intricacies of romance poses a challenge most formidable. They'd both do anything for someone they love, and desperation to save one another may ultimately be their undoing.
This painting will be coming with me to the IX Art Show next month in Reading, PA, Oct 22-26! (For real this time, I'm going to try not to be sick this year)
In our night sky there is a dark band that runs through the Milky Way, known as the Great Rift. This darkness is where the stars of our galaxy are obscured by vast clouds of interstellar dust and geese … er, gas.
There is an experience of magic to be found in the poetry of stories, new and old. For many thousands of years, our ancestors looked at the random distribution of stars in the night sky and saw things that were familiar to them. Some people think that living with a scientific worldview means giving up the wonder of our ancestor’s stories. Yet, just as enjoying a fantasy novel doesn’t require believing it to be true, having a grounded, science-based worldview doesn’t have to keep you from enjoying the beauty and poetry of myth and metaphor.
Just don’t make any important life decisions as though there are really giant geese in space.
i had the best human interaction of all time last night. i was sitting at a bar eating an appetizer and this guy comes up to order a drink and stares at my food and comments how good it looks. when i am drunk i use the word bitch like it is a comma, i plug it into any space in a sentence possible. so naturally the first thing i say to this stranger is, “go ahead and take one, bitch.”
he looks SO shocked and taken aback and goes “what did you just say? how do you know my name?” so i sit there for a moment trying to figure out what the fuck he is talking about, and then go, “…. bitch?” and he looks so relieved and tells me his name is mitch.
i cannot stop thinking about this. oh my god. imagine going into a bar and someone you know for a fact youve never met approaches you and says “go ahead and take one, mitch.” im cracking the fuck up. he looked like he thought this was the fucking truman show
Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.
It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.
(PS: but literally everyone else does and is so tired)
These characters aren’t clueless, no, they’re not walking around like, “love? never heard of her.” They know something’s going on, they just won’t admit it (not to themselves, not to anyone.) Maybe they’re scared of messing it up, or maybe they think the other person doesn’t feel the same. Maybe they’ve stuffed the feeling so deep even a NASA rover couldn’t dig it out.
Whatever the reason, they’re not avoiding the truth as much as they’re…rebranding it. Calling it “friendship” while giving each other their only jacket and dreaming about each other’s voices like it’s totally normal behavior.
ꕤ They don’t realize it’s love, but they notice everything else. They clock every mood shift, every absence, every little thing. They definitely know when something’s off.
⇢ “You changed your hair.”
⇢ “You looked upset earlier.”
⇢ “You didn’t text me back and I panicked.”
⇢ “You weren’t at lunch and it felt weird.”
⇢ “Are you cold?” hands over jacket without a second thought
They don’t say “I love you,” but their actions scream it constantly.
ꕤ they get weird when someone else gets close
They’re not jealous. No, how dare you think something like that… they’re just keeping an eye out. For safety... Or whatever."
⇢ “Who was that?”
⇢ “Oh, you’re hanging out with them again?”
⇢ “I just think it’s interesting how you never cancel on them.”
They don’t say it, but they hate the idea of being replaced. It stings more than they’re ready to admit.
ꕤ they make excuses to be around each other.
Literally inventing reasons to be in the same space.
⇢ “Wanna study together? I’m struggling with this topic.” (They’re not.)
⇢ “Oh, I was just in the area.” (They weren’t.)
⇢ “You forgot this.” (It’s a single pen.)
They’d rather lie badly than admit, “I just wanted to see you.”
ꕤ Their friends are so over it
Everyone around them is either rooting for them or trying not to scream.
⇢ “You’re in love with them.”
⇢ “That’s not friendship, and you know it.”
⇢ “You made them soup. FUCKING SOUP. Just say you’re married already.”
⇢ “If I have to hear you talk about them one more time, I’m charging rent.”
Friends are the Greek chorus of this situation, like, brutally honest and endlessly tired.
ꕤ There’s always a moment they almost figure it out
That one soft, unspoken beat where the truth almost breaks through.
⇢ Watching them laugh like it’s the first time.
⇢ Seeing them cry and wanting to fix it more than anything.
⇢ Realizing no one else makes them feel like this.
⇢ Thinking, God, they’re beautiful.
Then they blink, panic a little, and go, “Huh. Weird.” And move on. Like absolute fools.
ꕤ When it finally hits, it’s not cute, it’s catastrophic. Suddenly everything makes sense and feels like too much.
⇢ Flashbacks.
⇢ Internal screaming.
⇢ “Oh no.”
⇢ “OH MY GOD.”
⇢ “Has it always been this obvious??”
⇢ “Wait. Everyone knew?!”
Yes. Everyone. The friends, the neighbor’s cat. You were the only two who didn’t get the memo...
