some general info about the blog...

the blog is mostly meant to be for visual novels i'm a fan of. but don't be surprised if i talk about other media i'm into or just random stuff that comes to mind

generally i prefer people 14+ follow this blog. this place is SFW, but i won't shy away from talking about more mature stuff or making more adult jokes when i feel like it

my askbox is always open to anyone who visits my humble abode! feel free to come to me with whatever you like! but please, don't be rude. i have zero tolerance and will just block you.

i am a poc trans person. obvious dni's are obvious.

this is so ungodly late but i figured i gotta just throw this out now before my brain taps out and procrastinates on it again

ITS DONE THEYRE HERE ITS LOID OH MY GOD

he's so green

they're so beautiful...... look at them............ i'm so proud of how this turned out i got to experiment with some brush packs and WOW did it pay off

for any newcomers seeing them for the first time OR those who'd just like a refresher, this is my Keyframes MC Loid Jimenez who has some more posts elaborating on their deal here and here! TLDR they're my winter personality mc for an Elio romance route and i'm deeply attached to them

i will say this is mostly just a concept design in a way? it might fluctuate and change slightly the more i draw them but this is essentially how i've always envisioned them in my head. basically take this as a "base" design that i'll probably build from

i hope people dig loid's look.... everyone be nice to them they're camera shy

[dao-the-starlight]

entering fight or flight mode whenever i try to explain that i like going by my laos name saengdao instead of my birth name because the second i say it i can see the persons face shift uncomfortably as they decide it’s too hard to say and so they never even attempt it

[souliloqui]

the hugest tits i've ever seen on a li and i say this knowing who his competitors are -> caleb and sylus

[teabeexo]

loid and sunny bonding over music cds and stereos moot can you hear me moot-

on a personal mission to unite all the elio mcs

WELLL YESS the quickest way to their heart is through their stereo i’m tellin you… they also love trading recs with people by guessing what they’d like and i could totally see them doing that w loid

[dao-the-starlight]

YESSSSSS let them go to a record store together and chill over music… trade cds… give recs…. they’d have so much fun

@citrusbuds ’s white boy can tag along too ig…… (IM JKIDDING IM KIDDING ID BE HAPPY TO HAVE HIM THERE)

[dao-the-starlight]

possibly maybe just might have a loid mini fic wip cooking up….. is there any audience for this……

made the doc two weeks ago then promptly forgot about it until now oops

[teabeexo]

i’m not doing artfight but i could still attack you. where is my knife

[dao-the-starlight]

how do i explain to people that elio kealoha is genuinely my exact type without outing myself as a visual novel shill

[dao-the-starlight]

“i love my thick curly hair” i say, as i’ve been standing bent sideways smothering product into my hair and holding a diffuser to it for the past 30 minutes

[citrusbuds]

actually now that i think about it what would an eliojon clothes style swap look like………..now i actually go to bed goodnight

ok so i decided itd be fun to do this in 2 parts; first: sunglasses clothing swap. where they swap clothes.

clearly, some of them dont fit.

the thing about ai witch hunt is that instead of spreading awareness about why and how ai can be harmful, people focus their energy on harassing other people instead. so instead of actually achieving something, fandom space and the internet as a whole just became twice as toxic because people have found a ✨noble way✨ to tell other people to off themselves and get praises for it. you’re not helping. you’re part of the problem

if jon lost his glasses would he pull a velma dinkley and just drop to the ground like “I CANT SEE!!” asking for very important science

oh yes absolutely on the ground all fours blindly reaching around going "fuck my glasses where the fuck are my glasses" before becoming all dramatic about it until someone else finds it for him. then he standd up, puts his glasses on, says thanks, and then acts like nothing happened.

[citrusbuds]

@dao-the-starlight

[dao-the-starlight]

important reminder that most people you follow online are significantly lamer than you think they are including me. and if you feel insecure comparing yourself to someone online: DON'T. theyre probably also lame and weird. most people on the internet are

[most-sane-classicist]

reblog if you're also lame and weird.

[dao-the-starlight]
