Author/Artist of the Webcomic RayConnect
RayConnect Comic Website: https://mintisse.com/category/rayconnect/
Finally made a pinned post! Hello, I go by Mintisse online~ this is mainly a things-I-like blog. But I do occasionally post some OC and fan art, and probably what people like the best: nonsensical comics about various magical girl/shoujo media, like this one!
Also, do you happen to like magical girls and girl-friend shows but wish there was more with ... adults?
Well I' m working on a comic called RayConnect! A story about a young woman named Ray, using a digital world to do one of the hardest things a 24 year old could do... make new friends.
RayConnect is a passion project of mine I post for free on my website, so please bear with me as I experiment with it to see what works.
For those that dont want to click through links to read profile
Ramu:
Gem placement: top of the Left foot
While to the others they are simply labeled pearl for the purpose of OC's and for a real name
they will be labeled with nicknames here.
To canon it'd simply be 'pearl' like every other pearl
_____________
The new floor model Pearl here to show off the latest looks and new accessories
She's quietly intelligent, capping herself off as no one likes a 'show off'. She is intelligent enough to be aware of whats expected and not step outside of line.
Shes here to entertain after all and isn't that just so much better than standing around?
Wide and shiny eyed and happy to be useful, loving to dance with the display ornaments at a moments notice or change her outfit before another gem for them to see how it'd look in full color and on their own pearl if they didn't bring her.
Ramu hasn't thought yet of why Nene hasn't been picked- maybe it's just that she slips through the cracks or just unlucky that she hasn't been selected yet when other pearls are picked over her to be given away
At least Ramu finds it enjoyable that they get along so well- it'd be miserable being stuck with another pearl that she didn't like!

Nene:
Gem placement: Chest
While to the others they are simply labeled pearl for the purpose of OC's and for a real name
they will be labeled with nicknames here.
To canon it'd simply be 'pearl' like every other pearl
Nene has been servicnig this reef for many years now, seeing multiple pearls come and go
It's hard for pearls with very specific gem placements to be taken- at least thats what Nene assumes for the newer comer taking longer to
Nene has grown attached to Ramu, the two often at eachothers hip
Finding solace in that - even unspoken- that theres someone here who knows exactly what its like
how silly of her, its great here isn't it?
too many wandering thoughts lately… Nene thus needs to busy herself more as clearly shes having too much time to think more than a pearl should
To be bubbly and kind, she smiles everyday

They are not the abalones personal servant pearls, think of the two more of common servant helpers
like workers at retail.
Waiting for more.
As all floor model pearls they await rejuvenation for when they're given to their new honor. Seeing it as a badge of pride ready to go 'where they belong'.
Unaware of the true horror of what personhood being stripped and reset truly is as like many pearls who believe the homeworlds message and rules that they are just to do as told.
To quote Yellow Pearl " Of course not! My feelings are irrelevant."
The two embody what a era 1 reef pearl is like before they are given to a gem.
______________
Specifically made for how Pearl in canon was not told to format herself and thus has every color available to her palette. These are currently thought of as 'generic' pearls for they have no sepcified owner but belong to the court and Reef where they're placed- which is currently White diamonds
I made webcomic about them on webtoon canvas, tittle is My Merman (Boy)friend!
Only 3 chapters available and it's been on hiatus since a year ago--i found it hard to commit to do a comic series sobs--but feel free to check it out!
Had a really fun time at ctcon this year, I busted out my lemon cherry sugar dress for badge pick up, met a super nice Saint tail cosplayer at the retro manga/anime photoshoot, and was actually recognized as Sable by a little girl who was very shy but her mom was super nice and said Sable was her favorite character 🥺 so cute. Sunday I pulled together a mermaid melody cosplay very last minute and I really hope to make a better version someday because I looooove Coco so so much and it was surprisingly fun to wear even on Sunday when my back was fully out of commission (blocked out my face because I was feeling rough and you can tell) also picked up some cute earrings and acnh key chains!! Can't wait til next year
