in case it wasnt obvious, i primarily draw original art!!

☆ warning tags ☆

while i do consider this to be a sfw blog, i do sometimes post suggestive art and sensitive content. these are tags ill use that you might want to blacklist (...or browse). i do use these tags fairly liberally ‒ id rather tag something that doesnt need it than miss something that does.

☆ spicy: mild - lightly suggestive content, little to no nudity

☆ spicy: medium - more intense suggestive content, usually with some degree of nudity (might also have "sexual themes" content filter applied)

☆ spicy: hot - censored/cropped sexual content (rarely used; mostly just for preview posts for my 18+ art blog. no uncensored sexual content will be posted on this blog. will also have "sexual themes" content filter applied)

☆ cw nudity (of all varieties, including bare chests)

☆ cw blood (might also have "violence" content filter applied)

☆ cw gore (will likely also have "violence" content filter applied)

for clarity: i am of the belief that nonsexual nudity and bare chests should not need to be censored, but i tag as a courtesy to anyone who might be browsing in the company of someone who doesnt hold that same belief (bosses, family members, nosy strangers, etc). for bare chests in particular, since people come in all varieties of sexes & genders, i really dont think it makes sense to arbitrarily categorize peoples chests as being sfw or not, so i just tag them all.

please let me know if theres anything else you need tagged and ill do my best to accommodate.

that. was supposed to be an edited draft but sure i guess i can post it now whatever

@churchyardgrim asked: does iyan experience Sensory Data, and is this a novelty or an irritant or irrelevant to it?

in its normal form (which i dont have an accurate drawing of yet, sorry), iyan experiences things... well. normally. sure, it has seven eyes and five arms and tentacles and whatever else, but i mean, how often do you really notice that youre seeing things with two eyes? does it bother you that you can feel separate things with separate hands? nevermind that those parts came from different sources; theyre all one being now. iyan may have more going on than the average person but it doesnt noticeably affect how it perceives the world around it.

that said, it is imprisoned in a sort of pocket dimension, and while it can move freely within it, there isnt really much to interact with. i havent totally worked out the details of that yet though. i want it to be small, i want it to be cramped, but i dont want it to just be a featureless void (except when i do). i think maybe it can manipulate it at least to some extent? and everything in it would be "real enough" to interact with, but it probably feels... off. like theres not enough detail, or it wont stay consistent. it would much rather experience the real world... even through someone else.

iyan can see and hear through alix, but thats about it. it is sometimes able to compel them to do something, but it doesnt have any actual control over their body.

the two of them can mentally communicate, sort of. iyan can pretty much hear all of alixs thoughts, but alix can only hear what iyan wants them to. also sometimes it just fucks off & stops paying attention to them. its not trapped in alixs head, its just observing when it so chooses.

its an upgrade in terms of being able to experience things that are actually real, but its still not as good as being part of the real world.

once iyan is in ciryls body, the two of them have a shared consciousness & shared control. iyan can sense everything the same as ciryl. its not a perfect substitute for its real body, but it allows it to fully interact with the world. iyan is also able to speak through ciryl with its own voice (they can even speak simultaneously if they really want to), but thats actually a skill ciryl developed during his cult days to aid in communication between his fellow cultists and their god — with any other host, iyan would likely have to speak with their voice rather than its own.

iyan & ciryl can communicate with each other in the same way that iyan & alix can (although im not sure yet if theyre always both aware of each others thoughts or only when they want to be). iyan can of course still communicate with & see/hear through alix, but i think ciryl can only tell what iyan is saying, if he can tell that theyre communicating at all. im also not sure if iyan can "check out" of this whole arrangement in the same way that it can with alix, but i think im leaning towards no. the best it can probably do is to just sort of daydream, where its still there, its just not really paying attention.

im not really sure it would think of any of these as much of a novelty... i mean i guess with alix its kind of like watching tv. sort of. it probably likes being able to just fully ignore whatever is going on with them when it wants to. none of them are really ideal, and of course its ultimate goal is to be freed from its prison and return to the real world in its own real body. but in the meantime, sharing with ciryl is probably the closest it can get.

△ does Alix like or care for Iyan at all or is it just a burden?

(for this ask game)

Alix:

It's... complicated. Like, I'm not gonna lie to you and say having this thing living in my head full time is just fuckin' peachy — you know what that's like? Having someone hear all your thoughts? Not that it's always listening, but I can never tell until it starts talking, and then I get looks when I start talkin' back — what was the question again? ...Right. Do I care about it? Fuck no. Feeling's mutual. We're both just doing this because we need to. Because in some fucked up way, we both need each other. At least for now.

I... still don't even know what happens to me once I free it. It won't tell me. Maybe I keep on kickin' — maybe I still can't die. Ever. Maybe I finally can, permanently. Maybe I immediately drop dead from all the times before. Not sure which is the best case scenario... or worst. But do I like it? I mean... we're not exactly on great terms. Kinda how it goes when it's all outta obligation, y'know? But it's not like we never see eye to eye. We have common goals. Common interests. Common... violent tendencies. Can't really deny we do work well together. And this whole... situation... has its perks, right? I like the power it gives me. The magic shit is neat. Could've stolen the hammer anyway but it's nice that I don't have to carry it everywhere.

Also it's got five arms and tentacles and big teeth and a long tongue and— I'll let you draw your own conclusions there.

(for this ask game)

Oli:

As for a middle name, mm... five? I don't have one at the moment, but... you never know. They do come in handy.
