my summer son || repainted this ephrim-as-gdragon piece from (checks dates) oh my god, 8 years ago. original versions under the cut. thank god i learned to stylize. prints coming to tafcon with me!
tiny brushes. wiggly lines. stiff recreation of the photo reference. classic
i've been listening to friends at the table for nearly 8 of its 11 years, which is a crazy sentence to type!! this silly partizan social media au is still special to me.
image descriptions below:
[The format of these illustrations looks like Twitter Mobile with a black and red color scheme. There is a white "the strand" logo that looks like the shapes made by string pull paint art, as described in the Road to Partizan Dialect game. The text is handwritten neatly.]
1.
the dread pirate exeter leap @.blingrings: rings
[Image of several gold and silver rings with a hyperlink caption below that says "post 'rings.'" It is in the style of the viral "carp" meme from December 2020. Leap's profile picture is a light green circle with a skull and crossbones wearing sunglasses.]
The Curtain of Divinity (✓) @.sick_as_shit: RIP to Logos Kantel. Just because we killed him doesn't mean we can't miss him!
[The profile picture is royal blue with a white stylized curtain icon on it. It looks like a corporate logo.]
Valence 🔒 @.awoooo: oh my god you're going to be the first person to ever get suspended from a strand server THEY CREATED
[Their profile picture is an image of two wolves against a stormy sky - the "there are two wolves inside you" meme.]
The Curtain of Divinity (✓) @.sick_as_shit: are you kidding?? they can't suspend me, i'm too powerful
jesset city (✓) @.jessetkitty: me: i am fundamentally opposed to the divine principality
my friends: understandable
[The rest of the post is cut off. The profile picture is an image of Jesset from the neck up, on a lime green background. He has brown skin, short, curly brown hair, and a cute smile. There is a filter that gives him stylized cat ears and whiskers.]

millie 🔒 @.gothgirl69420: what the fuck si'dra
[Screenshot showing the account @sick_as_shit has been suspended. Millie's profile picture on this account (gothgirl69420) is an image of her from the neck up on top of a hot pink background. She has teal hair that goes at least to her shoulders, medium brown skin, and pointy teeth. She is squinting her eyes, grinning and sticking her tongue out.]
si'dra (✓) @.theboss: >:)
[Si's profile picture is a black circle with a red Millennium Break symbol.]
Princess Clementine Kesh (✓) @.belltower: oomf talks a lot about open and democratic access to information for someone who couldn't be bothered to respond to my messages 🤔 make it make sense
[Clem's profile picture is a light pink circle with "PRIMADONNA GIRL" in fuschia bubble letters.]
Sovereign Immunity (✓) @.thefarmer: literally just go talk to gucci oh my god
[S.I.'s profile picture is the default twitter profile picture of a blue silhouette.]
Gur Sevraq (✓) @.thefriend84673: TAke a look, y'all: IMG_4346.jpeg
[Gur's profile picture is the default twitter profile picture of a gray silhouette. The image he has tried to post does not actually show up, as they have just copied and pasted the file name a la Stephen A. Smith's viral tweet.]
3.
million blue (✓) @.sick_as_shit: for some sort of radical utopia you'd really think this place could figure out how to make enough chicken strips so that we don't run out after 10 mins, smh. y'all should've campaigned on that
[Millie's new profile pic on this account is an image of her facing away from the camera to show off her leather jacket with red "BURN THRONES BUILD TABLES" text and fire painted on the back. She has teal hair that hangs a little past her shoulders.]
jesset city (✓) @.jessetkitty: i wanted to bring it up in the debate but gur said it would distract from the message :/
apparatus aperitif (✓) @.mirrormayor: [no caption]
[Image resembles a screenshot of a note from the iPhone notes app. The date at the top is 06/10/1423 at 16:00 DPT. The title, in bold, is "THE PEOPLE'S DEMANDS." The rest of the note reads: "1. Clementine Kesh gets the guillotine is jailed. 2. Free and fair elections will be held every two years. 3. Chicken strip production will be ramped up to serve all of Millennium Break. 4. Power will be held by a council of elected..." The last line is cut off. Apparatus's profile picture is of a skull made of pieces of mirror.]
millie 🔒 @.gothgirl69420: i give it 10 minutes before clem changes her profile picture to a black circle
broun 🔒 @.XxXm4rkupXxX: you woke up this morning and chose violence
[Broun's profile picture is of them from the neck up, against a royal blue background. They have maroon hair in two dutch braids and medium brown skin with a reddish hue. They are making a neutral, almost-smiling expression and have black lipstick on. They also have a few patches of teal scales and large, light blue-green fins or gills in front of where their ears would be.]
4.
[Image looks like Twitter DMs between Milli and Broun. Above the messages is the date 06/12/1423 12:21 DPT.]
broun: hey si'dra called a meeting in the caf, meet us at the table behind that weird fake fern thing?
millie: what if i had plans. ever think of that
broun: i saved you a plate of chicken strips
millie: omg have i ever told you you're my favorite?? i'm literally always saying that to people
millie: broun is my best friend and closest ally, that's what i tell them
millie: omw :)))
5.
[Same format. The date is 08/60/1423 22:17 DPT.]
broun: heyyyyy
broun: can i ask you something
millie: shoot
broun: why did you decide to come to icebreaker?? and like, stay
millie: oh shit, okay
millie: i mean, i didn't feel like i had much choice to begin with? i could have run, but even if kesh didn't catch up with me i'd always be looking over my shoulder
millie: i guess when things started kicking off with the election and the strand it felt like this could be an opportunity to build something instead of breaking it
6.
millie: and i suppose the feeling that promises were being kept was enough, at least for the time being
broun: that's, uh. quite a leap of faith
broun: no pun intended 🙄
millie: lol
millie: i guess so
millie: you know there are people who'd miss you if you weren't around, yeah?
millie: and i'm not just saying that because it'd be a bitch for me and si'dra to have to replace you
millie: idk, just figured you could use a reminder, whatever
What counts as old?? Great question. We're just compiling everything we've written so everyone can see. Happy 11 Years of Friends at the Table!
Asbestine Infelidel (or: Marn and Pickman agree to perform a task of grim necessity on the third quiet day), 9712 words – Marn and Pickman take an odd job from an even odder cursed priest. Cute and low stakes.
Wire Guy (incomplete), 74,289 words – The standout, of course. A melancholy Phrygian-centric longfic where our guy is entangled in solving a mystery and otherwise partaking in shenanigans with Eclectic Opposition and Exeter Leap. Strong themes of alienation, bodily autonomy, ongoing effects of trauma, and pirates getting up to dumb shit. It is currently up to chapter six.
Whitewater Foxholes, 2848 words – Phrygian and Corrasion have a conversation after hooking up, the only two Branched anywhere in Principality space.
Intimacy, 5933 words – We wrote a fic for FaTT Pinup Week, because hey, why not? Phrygian visits Jesset in the hospital, and offers what connections to home they can.
Taking care, 1640 words – Phrygian seems listless. Figure takes the time to look after the studio apartment.
The Answering Machine, 4398 words – Phrygian has a conversation with Figure A. They talk about the war, the future, and Crystal Palace.
Six Sunday, chapters 1-4, 5233 words– A collection of small ficlets.
Figure encounters Phrygian in a frightening form during a power outage.
Kalrin Pyrhis plans and executes their revenge against a fellow clown. (not a FaTT fic.)
Kalrin Pyrhis, caught in the midst of a bodyswap with their friend Ohnyxx, must improvise to deal with the wrath of their infamously murderous lusus. (not a FaTT fic.)
Phrygian reflects on the effects the war had on their life before they'd gone on the research mission.
Fero in Spring - I was so sure I'd already posted this but I absolutely cannot find it on my blog. my second lino print ever : ) I recently touched up the foliage with watercolor, so I wanted to share it again.
I'm so lucky the single eyelash didn't break off. iirc it was a lucky accident because I'd messed something up - worked out though.
I still really like my very small simplified Last University. it's cute
my friends at the table fic!!!! except for the ones i got embarrassed and deleted that are lost to time !
Kinslayer, Twice Over (T | 776 words | posted in 2021) A brief confrontation between a still-living Maelgwyn and Samot on his deathbed.
Reunion (T | 5,117 words | posted in 2023) Adaire runs a bakery, and one day her not-quite-ex's new fiancée comes in and asks to buy a cake. Through Adelaide's meddling, Adaire and Hella are able to rekindle their relationship. Chapter 2 is a recipe that i developed for what is essentially a chocolate and orange king cake. it's good but the dough is pretty annoying to work with. if you're so inclined to bake recipes off of ao3. lol.
twin disasters (E | 2,898 words | posted in 2024) Brnine and Jesset have deeply awkward sex after Brnine's movie night fight with Gucci 👍
Washing the Kitchen Floor (G | 1,791 words | posted in 2025) A short exploration Adaire's relationship with Rix and Rowe and what motherhood means to her.
late to this but happy birthday friends at the table i would not be a game designer without y'all. and also wow i did some technical piano shit i did not think i had in me for this
wait wait wait okay i do want to last minute play along with the FATT anniversary so here is my [Signet] cosplay from 2019 🦋 I genuinely don't know if I actually showed any of these off???
Signet is, far and away, my favorite table friends character. If there is one thing you should know about me, is that I WILL at any point be thinking about they marked scars of light in pitch; born in fiercest purpose, and beheld as the signet sealed upon our pact. she is everything to me.
here's to the one and only time i went to gencon and got to hang out with all the lovely people there and shoutouts to @peacereturnedtothevalley for taking photos of me and to Katie for going theater mode and helping me get the flowers to hold up the crown!
One day I will remake it and I want to go somewhere where it is snowing and not like 90 degree glaring hot weather!
