// hi
i kinda disappeared cause of college, didnt expect the coming sem to be so.... bad
im in internships rn, and has quite a chunk of time. i really do like writing maya, so i will continue where i left off a few months back. only needed a few things anyway l o l
i actually thought of making an ana blog and either just hang out there or handle this one AND that but you know me, i like biting more than i can chew, so idk man..
but for now ill chill here and hope for the best :o
I FINALLY FINISHED THIS DAMN THING. well. not exactly finished, since a lot of things here might be subject to change cause im very indecisive, but at least ive told myself to at least make a base design i can change around little by little without much drastic effect
anyway! this is “Maya”, my overwatch oc! after anti-omnic extremists and politics have turned the tides against her country, she rose to the scene after being in the sidelines as an engineer for an “omnic-neutral” guerilla force.
she’s someone i’d love to call a “support’s support,” best on assisting supports with maintaining themselves, keeping the team alive until they arrive on the scene, and assisting allies on executing kills and escaping the scene.
(note: maya’s tattoo is not final, nor a genuine traditional design. i dont have money to consult a tribe for a design, nor do i have enough resources to research designs on my own;; i mostly took design cues from tattoos done on the members of the ‘mark of the four waves’.)
i haven’t yet thought of stuff for her legendary skins, sadly, that will come soon i guess uwu;;
// hi look im done i can relax abt this thing now
// hi!
my hiatus continues.
but im here to announce that it will end at december, sometime after my sem ends, wjicj is around december 10, if im right.
also here to announce that ive planned a LOT of changes om maya’s background, kit, design, and others. ive realized my mistakes on writing maya as a representation of a disabled filipino woman, and im here to amend it. and they might be fitting, though, and might be a good comment on whatever the fuck is happening with the philippines right now. in case you don’t know: it’s just kinda bad. thats why ive been more determined to write maya, cause rn shes my way of pouring that passion.
things have been very busy here at my college, and all my majors are reaching the bottom line where we make our final plates. its closer than i thought and everyones scared and stressed, including me.
i hope you are patient with me, and i am very glad you’re still here. thank you. i hope its worth the wait.
// hi! ive been gone a while, and sadly that’s cause of midterm season, all three of my majors having something going on at the same time, and a lot of personal incidents in-between including me being stranded, me being sick and..... well, the list goes on, actually..............
i hit some sort of roadblock while making maya’s ref sheet, and that sorta left me to redo her design from scratch. or at least redo most of her design. gladly, my fine arts friends are helping me with it, so it’s a pretty okay process, but designing is hard in general hahaha. so this soft restart thing is taking longer than i want it to be and i missed writing here so much
so ill go and return soon to replying to the threads i owe people sometime next week after my midterms and after most of my plates are submitted im so sorry for all this aaaahhh ;;
I'm not into overwatch but I believe in you!! Keep up the good work, I dont read much of your stuff but you put alot of care and work into your character from what i've seen! You'll get some RPs i know it!
// thank you! from someone who’s spending a lot of time on research and concept and all, i’m glad you like what you’re seeing! ;o;
it’s not like im just going to give up without trying: that’s why im doing this soft restart via changing my whole aesthetic and all. well.... it’s the only thing i can do. if my best is not enough, that’s when ill back out on the rp thing
but ill keep drawing maya cause let’s face it ive drawn her too much to back out from ever drawing her l m a o
+
// hi! so, since things are rather stagnant here and activity’s close to dead, i’d like to take the opportunity to take a short break! maybe about a week or so, depending on the schoolwork that comes with it?
it’s just that i wanna take the time to finish maya’s reference sheet (cause it’s way overdue), redo/replace the theme so it’s more my liking, make a new promo post, make a follow forever post of sorts, and basically just.... rebrand myself.
the thing is that, maybe i did not get myself to a good start. maybe i got too excited, too passionate, maybe too proud of her, that i got carried away in my first few RPs with Maya. So what I’m doing is a “soft restart”, if you can call it that. just change the look, aesthetic, the feel of everything, so it’s more fitting to majority (and mine!)’s taste!
i guess i can take this opportunity to restart with some RPers i think i’ll have fun RPing with in the long run, but i Fucked Up somewhere midway our threads and it didnt go well. a good rebranding does it right
i’ll still be online and game to plot threads, if ever. (just like this post, I’ll IM you about plotting!) but most of the time i’d be off drawing and planning how this goes!
idk if anyone would care, but to whoever who does, i’m putting it out here. thank you!
// *screams into eternity on how im finally doing progress on this*
// so here’s a munday thing. not a selfie or me, nor is this me, but well, it’s my work so it counts, i guess?
as u guys know im a visual communication student, and with that i’m a jack-of-all-trades sorta dude in the art sides of things. but mostly, im in advertisments, photos, covers, posters, you know. corporate shit.
and this is one of my works for one of my plates for a billboard ad for my fave rum or rather, the only rum ive ever tasted in my life yes thats maya. let me have fun
// STARTER CALL! you know the dealio. like for a starter of varying length!
@temperedtranquility | starter call
It’s just quite the new, unfamiliar territory to her, the workshop and the entire base in general. She looked rather strange herself, and with all the weight on her person, she’s exhausted and could not wait to just... find the workshop corner she’s assigned at so she can lie down and take a nap...
... which is probably not going to happen anytime soon. As soon as she caught sight of the cyborg, a quite familiar figure she’s seen and worked with several times whose name she just can’t remember, she’s suddenly reminded of something, and goes down to catch up with him.
“Yo. Was with you in the operation a day or so ago, you probably don’t remember me, but... well... uh...” She’s very sure it’s him, but memory’s failing her the last few days. “You were the one with me, right? Joined me in Cairo for a recon?”
alhimaya:
“Definitely. I have no doubt if we stay here long enough, the good doctor will come here and make us get some rest,” Fareeha says with a laugh and a shake of her head. “She told me to get some rest after checking me over for injuries already… I doubt she would be pleased to see me up and about right now.”
She drops herself carefully onto the bench, beginning to work on detaching her prosthetic. It sends a weird sensation up her thigh as the synthetic nerves that allow it to sync with the rest of her cut themselves off, and for a moment, it really feels like she’s missing a limb. Of course, the phantom limb sensation quickly replaces it, and she grimaces. It’s never a pleasant feeling, especially when she’s looking at the lack of a limb there.
“I rarely do the legs on my own,” she says. “But I’ve done it once or twice, and it’s definitely not easy at all. Takes way too much time, but sometimes I just have to.” She barks a laugh at the mention of stumbling. “Ah… It is somewhat embarrassing to remember, but yes. I have stumbled and nearly fallen at least once while trying to do this part solo.”
“I don’t really intend to stay here that long.” She did run around a lot during the operation, trying her best to get to everyone at the same time -- shields were important, and she intended to do her best. Fitness is not a thing Maya excels at though, and she could definitely need a rest. Seeing that Fareeha has fallen off somewhere high, Maya thinks she probably needs rest more than she herself does, though. “But if you want, we could do the rocket launcher and the other rocket parts tomorrow morning... and maybe have something for you, if you’d take more food.”
A few strides to where Fareeha has sat, and she kneeled in front of her to carefully attach it for her, fingers taking good care not to touch her anywhere inappropriate.
"Does feel strange, doesn’t it?” The frown in Fareeha’s face is already saying a lot, and she takes great care not to make her feel more uncomfortable, and tries to make this as fast as possible. “These sort of things are not really something you can get used to quickly.” A few deft turns, making sure she actually attached it right -- she’s just assuming, she only watched her attach and remove her arm earlier, and thinks the legs might work the same way -- and after a few moments, finally got it right.
“Well, I’m here, so no falling down and stumbling for you tonight, you’ve had too much of that for one day." She politely draws her hands back, but still readies in case she has to do anything else to help her. “How’s it? Anything wrong with it? D’you want me to get the other leg, too?”
cheapxshot:
a small burst of wind brings temporary relief, && for but a moment he allows himself to close his eyes. he’s just as stubborn as they flutter back open however, settled by adjusting the brim of his hat. eventually he DOES pull at the bright fabric– just enough, for it to extend down past his collarbone. “ don’t say i never listened to your advice, but if i get malaria i ain’t takin’ all the blame. ” words lack sincerity behind them, grasping the opportunity to TEASE over everything else.
Sure, this might be entertaining at the moment, but it will probably be not as fun when he faints of heat stroke just because he’d rather keep his cowboy aesthetic than cool down. The fanning from her paper fan grows faster as she realizes it didn’t really bring much comfort, but gives up and pulls him along instead, attempting to get him to go to somewhere shady, at least. “Sure, Jesse. Tell me about it--” another pull on his sleeve, as she laughs-- “because I’m pretty sure the two times I got dengue was definitely not during the summer.”

veuve-lilac:
“Beautiful. To have hope is to stay strong in most of tough situations… And it’s nice to carry our cultural traditions , in the heart and in the skin too.”
“Oh, I forgot to ask, pardon me. What is you name, miss ?”
“You don’t know how happy that makes me to hear that, miss! Some people at home do tell me I'm too passionate ‘bout it, or that I am too idealistic, but it’s pretty much my refuge after everything, and I won’t be here without it.”
“And it’s fine. People call me Maya, like the bird. I believe I don’t know yours as well, miss...?”
