Hi! I'm kyanako, or Phily. I've been here for years, but I'm only now getting into the groove of this site.
Notes/boundaries:
Asks will open and close at random. I'm pretty slow at responding to asks and may take months at a time.
If you're looking for my Milgram stuff, it's on @oboetemasuka
Feel free to send asks to said side blog if my ask box is closed on main
DMs are open to anyone who is following me. Note that the setting is different on my side blogs.
Feel free to ping me on posts I might be interested in, especially commissions, open requests, polls/tournaments, and art! I use a custom dashboard to view posts chronologically and omit reblogs, so I might miss a lot of posts.
However, please do not put bashing where I can't easily avoid it, and give me a heads up if something is going to lean critical. (E.g. dashboard is easy to avoid. Notifications not so much.)
(Psst, I have a strawpage. You can send me stuff)

Here's what I do:
For MILGRAM stuff, I'm @oboetemasuka. Any art from there also gets reblogged here. If any OCs are involved, it'll be the other way around.
SWAP Ensemble is my long-time comic that ran from July 16, 2014 to March 11, 2025. I will continue to make supplementary drawings and possibly redraw older pages.
Behind Closed Doors is a dormant story based on Your Turn To Die. (More like a thinly-veiled fic, though I plan to reboot it in a different direction when I feel like it)
The Hollock Adventures ("Ynez Hollock's Deadly Game" and "Jack Hollock's Super Easy Adventure") are comics of Pokemon Nuzlocke Challenges. I've started the third installment off of Tumblr, but that's also dormant.
Asonarium is a story I've had in mind, featuring whump subject Weave Sutari. So far, I've just used the guy for drawing prompts. I don't know if I'll go into story mode since I already have so much going on.
Claire Inez is my darling, so you'll probably see her around a lot. She exists at every age that she's alive. You can interact with her at @claire-inez
Her primary series is SWAP Ensemble, but you'll also find her in the following projects:
Back to the Basement: The Forest Basement is full of the spirits of those who died there, and those who wind up there have to explore to get out. (You'll mostly find Inktober art of the spirits or of Inez and her companions getting into tough situations.)
Heartland of Regrets: OCgram that supposedly takes place a year before SWAP Ensemble, featuring six ladies who are responsible for someone's death. Yes, Claire has canonically caused death at 14.

September is my designated break month. After drawing nonstop from May 20 until the end of August, and then double (or even triple) October challenges... I need that break ;_;
(I did this to myself)
(It's so tempting)
(P.S. if you're wondering where all those drawings are, they're on my other blog. Maybe I'll post a video of me flipping through my drawing book when I'm done.)
I tidied up the loose threads from my last few cross stitch projects and made a little heart out of the really small scraps
I have eight shades of green just in the scraps. There are at least three unused greens in the new pile still. Clearly, I've been embroidering too many Amanes and Ralseis.
