I hate to be this person, but I need any little bit of help I can get right now because this year has been an absolute whirlwind.
On Friday evening, I ended up in the hospital due to heart and lung complications, which caused me to miss work. Normally I'd be able to somehow manage, but unfortunately this happened after an already devastating month.
On June 16th, I lost my cat and spent what I could to give him the proper goodbye he deserved. Then, less than 24 hours later, my senior diabetic dog became severely ill and needed emergency veterinary care. Between those two situations, every bit of my savings was exhausted.
On top of that, I help care for my mother five days a week, so missing work with no available sick time has put me in an incredibly tight spot financially.
Right now, I have two bills that need to be paid this week, ongoing food and medical supplies for my diabetic dog, and honestly just basic groceries to worry about. At the moment, I have about $3 to my name.
Any help at all would be deeply appreciated.
I can offer commissions in exchange for support! I make:

@levinmancer asked: he had been missing for several days, ambushed by a group of rogue dark mages looking to collect a ransom now that fairy tail had grown its wealth significantly. they had partnered with sabertooth to locate him and when they finally did… it wasn’t a happy rescue like it should have been.
he was bound in thick chains, his eyes injured to the point of near blindness. his back was branded with a sinister mark and he was severely dehydrated and malnourished.
he was alive purely because of his will to survive.

IRON RAGE.
HER breathe was staggered as she took him in. Hands reached for her to stop her but she was born of shadow and pain.
And tonight, SHE WOULD BE DEATH ONCE AGAIN. Black iron flashed from bright purple magic circles and she sent weapons in all directions.
"Ravyn-! We can do this other way!" Lucy called but Ravyn didn't hear her. Ringing flooded her ears as she placed both hands out to her right and left.
"Shadow Art: Obsidian Fang."
Large shadow made wolf heads devoured and killed a few of the men heading towards her and those running away, she pointed two fingers and a dark.. low chuckle left her. It wasn't the teasing laugh.. It was one made of her past. One of the Heiress. ONE that her guild mates would have hoped to never hear again.
"Iron Make: Chain Domination.." Chains ripped through the ground and through the bodies of the men. Wrapping and tearing them towards the ground as she held out a free hand, slashing it through the air with a swiftness.
"Shadow art: The reaper."
Behind her, the shadows took shape and a scythe of shadow slashed through the air tearing apart the rest of the men. But she didn't seem to stop. Blinded by rage, blinded by love. Blinded by the man she had fallen in love with. He was hurt and they would pay.
After four years without killing another human, Ravyn slaughtered the dark guild members without mercy. Without remorse for what she had done. He would be upset with her but she would take his anger over his death.
Lucy & Erza made their way over to Deiru to get him down while Gajeel worked on getting Ravyn to calm down. His iron wrapped tightly around her. But she had not screamed. Through all of this, she was critically calm and collected.

The affectionate touche was returned in kind, Kengou's hand reaching to cup her cheek, "We thinking dinner to just talk about that idea or are we going to pick up where we left off that one night and call it a date? Because either way works for me."
"Dinner with you is always a welcome night for me."
With a gentle chuckle, she placed her hand over his own before moving it from her face. She was still .. avoidant and distant. Ravyn would get where she was comfortable with being around another.
"Do you want to call it a date? You were quick to the suggestion. Have you been thinking about me?"
She gave a teasing tone as she fixed the skirt of her dress before she looked back over to him.
if you are wondering why Ravyn has so many spells.. she's a s-class level mage with a dark guild family history. It was get better, be better, be the best or be devoured.
Shadow Bind. (this one is often paired with Iron Chain Dominion)
Tendrils of shadow wrap and hold around the target to bind them in place.
Umbral Bullet:
Ravyn points to fingers and several shots of compressed shadow bullets shoot from the tips.
Shadow Claws:
She creates magic shadow like claws around her hands for close combat. These often resemble demon like claws, she believes there still some demon cells left in her.
Shadow Step:
Ravyn is able to move through shadows and emerge through shadows of others. She only uses this when she is unable to safely get from one place to another. She also likes to scare her friends.
Shadow body:
Her body becomes entirely of shadow, this is harder to keep up in well lit places or light magic users. Objects & attacks can go through the shadow body but this form is not limitless. She can still get hurt in this form.
Shadow art: Obsidian Fang
A giant wolf head erupts from the Ravyn's shadow and bites down on the target. If she's able to focus, she can have two heads shooting in opposite directions.
Shadow art: The Reaper
A shadow scythe appears behind Ravyn for a devastating finishing strike.
Advanced Spells:
(This take a lot of energy/magic from her so she tends not to use these unless they are in dire need. )
Shadow Art: Heiress of the Abyss
Ravyn merges with her shadow, gaining immense speed, power, and control over darkness. ( this is the strongest at night or in dark places. Again, it's hard to control this if there's a light magic user or bright effecting light source)
Shadow Beast Art: Leviathan
A monstrous serpent made of shadows and iron bursts from the ground and devours incoming attacks. This can be used for 3 minutes. The serpent can block and attack but this spells is always a last second spell) During the battle of fairy tail, she uses this spell twice and she loses vision in her right eye for some time.
Iron Prison:
An iron prison is created around the target holding them in place. Often times, ravyn uses this as way to capture targets or beasts that might be causing damage or danger to others.
Chain Coffin:
She wraps an enemy in countless iron chains that tighten over time. Ravyn can also make the chains sharpen and cut the target. Causing damage to their bodies and clothing/armor.
Iron Cataclysm:
The spell transforms an area of 25 feet into a landscape of iron spikes, walls, and weapons. This is more of a defensive spell when she feels like she needs to put some distance between herself and the enemy.
Iron body:
Ravyn creates a light iron armor cover every part of her body. This she learned from Gajeel. This took her a little over a year to fully master.
Iron Chain Dominion
She's able to create dozens of chains that attack and restrain enemies simultaneously. Or she forces Chains erupt from the ground and lock the individual target in place.
Advanced Iron:
Iron Beast Art: Serpent
An enormous iron snake erupts from the ground and wraps around enemies.
Heiress's Armory:
Hundreds of unique weapons appear behind the user and launch simultaneously. This is ONLY used if Ravyn has no other choice, her allies are out of the way or the enemy is too large to take down. This takes a lot of energy and magic from her.
Iron Beast Art: Titan Impact (secret)
She summons a towering iron beast that stomps the ground, creating devastating shockwaves. (this only lasts about five minutes at a time. That's as long as she can keep it up before her vision starts to go) She has only used this once in her life time.
The woman couldn't hide it any further as he knew her too well now. Leslie Strauss had know her better than some people would know. Their moments of piece with the light of their secret hide outs and venting sessions.
"Listen.. It's been a while but nothing will come of it. I did some really bad stuff to get here.. to get where I ended up. I'm not .. good enough for someone like Elfman."
A shrug in return of her thoughts as she looked over towards Leslie.
"People like me don't get the cute in-laws. The one they will be happy with. It's okay. I have accepted that it might ever happen. And no, I had no plans on telling you that I had feelings for your older brother."
She gave a slight smile as she pushed him with her shoulder.
"I will never live this down, will i? You caught me giving eyes to your brother.."
