Call me Mage or feel free to make up something based on my username, I don't mind :3
My pronouns are all except xenos, although I prefer they/it :3
I draw stuff and write fanfiction but I'm too shy to post most of what I do... One day, I will overcome my fear, but that day is not today
I don't care about the chaos that is current events mainly because I am too busy to pay attention so please don't ask me about that because I will not know what you're talking about/not respond because I don't wanna think about it
My main fandoms are Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, Danny Phantom, and The Owl House (I have a lot of minor ones too but those main four are the ones I'm the most into)
I am a bit of a lurker plEASE FORGIVE ME I am a shy lil goober (sorry to the people who may or may not have thought I was stalking them, I'm just not used to Tumblr culture yet)
I accept asks and will respond to them :D (actually I really really want people to ask me things I am desperate for interaction but too shy to start any)
(Stop asking me for money. I will block you. Very sorry but I can't donate to you, ok??)
Mine can go between 1,000 words and 6,000 words. It really depends on how the chapter feels. Like, did I accomplish what I wanted to going into it? I wouldn’t worry too much about chapter word count honestly. If it feels like the right chapter length, then it probably is.
Mine tend to be in the 2000-5000 word range when I actually write chapters, a lot of my fics are just oneshots and the chapter splitting is just so I can release them slowly haha
man sometimes friendship really is just "I saw this and knew it would give you psychic damage. please respond with agony" and then they do. and it's great
Alright, no idea if anyone who followed me for my Steven Universe x Gravity Falls crossover fic is still here, but I have a notice:
Yes I am still working on it, and yes I will be posting the next chapter and yes I have not yet given up. I promised myself this would be yes first proper fic I complete and I meant it damnit!
Anyway, for the 3 people who care, here is a sneak preview for all the chapter titles 👀
Yes, these are still subject to change. But if anyone wants to guess what a chapter is about based on them 👀 I wouldn't mind 👀
"And thanks to you, I got a chance to see all the beauty of the universe. Things I never even knew were in the world. Or could be. A chance no human will ever get again. I'm grateful that I saw it all. Even if it was just for a little."

Rant below 👇
I had planned this comic for quite sometime now, since the start of June actually, but now I can say I'm done with this little project of mine. I also wanted to at least contribute to the fandom and since I can't frickin animate (looking at my hands in misery) I decided the next best thing, comics!
It was inspired by many things and yes it was based off of What is Love? by Twice the K-pop idol group. I based Derek from two characters ( three as a honorary member I guess) but this rant would've been three times longer than it should be so I won't get into detail.
Derek, in my opinion, is someone who is curious about the littlest things ever since he was a child, his drive to know more about the world is pretty evident across SFAWTDE, even if it's just surface level considering we don't really know his thought process that much (Compared to Avery that is) .
Which is his strongest strength but also what lead to his own downfall, his own selflessness and his care for both the Avery and the world is what kept him going in DAWTDE. I believe that D3rlord3 could turn against Avery, he is smart enough to understand that he is powerless against the King as Derek had many chances to work with him (across those days and months stuck to his computer), but he didn't because if Derek did then he might as well betraying his own beliefs.
Okay I'm getting a bit sidetracked here 🥲🥲
This comic is me trying to explore Derek a bit more as a character, since love is a general topic that I think anyone can understand (I won't go into detail here).
And I am also just a sucker for characters who are smart but dumb at the same time when it comes to their own affections and feelings. ( I drink it like how Derek drinks his smoothies 😏😏😏)
I am aware that many people portrayed D3rlord3 as someone who had accepted that he is in love with Avery right from the beginning of his demise, but I personally wanted to twist it a bit. Which comes to my main theme of this comic;
"What if he realized his feelings a tad bit too late?"
Derek is someone who puts others first as we can tell from bits and pieces sprinkled across DAWTDE and at the end of SFAWTDE where even as his mind is deteriorating by the second he still made the effort to at least warn Avery. Which I concluded (and most people before me had also) that Derek doesn't care for himself that much but he cares for others and that is what matters to him the most.
I think that's all from me, I've kept you here way too long. I had fun drawing each of the panels, heck I don't care if it flops.
But if you want to hear me rant more on my thoughts of this comic or just Derek in general, my asks are always open. I'll answer them to the best of my capabilities. 😋😋
