!! COMMISSIONS OPEN !!

Um... Well, kind of. Really, I’m going to be doing commissions to help a friend of mine pay for her way out of a hell of a household she lives in. I don’t know how much it costs, and quite frankly, I don’t care. She doesn’t deserve to be in the place she’s in.

Her post detailing her situation can be found here.

As for what I’m doing, I’m doing full-body drawings, headshots, and sketches, all with optional simple backgrounds.

What I’ll need is either a ref of your character (preferably colored), or a detailed description of your character. Even characters made in dollmakers are something I can use, so long as I can get a good idea of what you want.

Keep in mind that I have school and my own life to think about, and so it may take me a bit if it’s a complicated project. My Patreon can be found here, and it’s really the only means of payment I have, as I am not old enough to open a PayPal as of yet. Following that, I will give the funds to my friend. I expect payment before I begin work on the art.

Note: I will not accept NSFW commissions. I will, however, draw furries, Pokemon, humans, animals, etc, and simple backgrounds.

Examples of my art (and prices) under the cut:

Edit: Okie, I’m just gonna add commission prices here just to clarify. I should’ve put this in the original version. The variable background prices are based on how much effort it’ll need.

Sketch: $2.25

Colored: $4.25

Shaded: $5.50

Background: +$0.75-$1.25

Sketch: $1.00

Colored: $2.25

Shaded: $3.50

Background: +$0.50-$1.00

tfw when you want to stop procrastinating on making bios for your rp blog but you’re drained from the mere thought of writing bios for 30+ characters

So, I went out to the store one day, and on my way back, I just thought as I was crossing the parking lot...

"Reality bending squirrels."

I just love it so much and it came out of nowhere!

I already told a few people over Discord and I just... X3

[dust-mun]

Not all straight people are bad Not all non-LBGTQ people are homophobic Not all heterosexual people are abusive a-holes

I know people that are LIVING PROOF of that.

I’m sick and tired of seeing all of this prejudice against.certain groups on this site. I saw a post of a horrible act tagged “hetero things” and whatnot, and every single time I see that or anything like it, my blood boils just a little bit more.

Skin color, religion, sexuality, etc, don’t matter, because it can lead to just spreading more unnecessary hate, the same hate that’s being pinned against people such as the LBGTQ community in the first place. Straight people tend to get a bad rep on this site, and I think that it’s the year for prejudice against good individuals that can’t control the fact they’re in groups with bad reps to die.

So please reblog this and spread the word around that there are no absolutes for types of personalities!!

Edit: Added an image that perfectly describes how I feel.

I made this originally as a bit for Autism Awareness / Acceptance Month, but it eventually shifted away from just autism to what I and maybe some other people feel like.

The time taken was about 2-3 hours spread out over yesterday and today during school.

I wanted to make something a bit more positive to try and counter the sudden wave of negativity I’ve been feeling since the snow came back.

@tigermodrandomness helped out an absolute crap ton by just being there for me and listening. She’s seriously the best girlfriend I could’ve asked for. Also, I think I may as well thank @pknerd-liam and @felix-rukai-rp for helping me the best they could during my negativity streak the other day along with Tiger.

I was born with a disability that I can never get rid of, I have different interests than some of my peers, I have a lot of negativity bottled up, I do a lot of things that I don’t mean to that unintentionally hurt others, but that does not mean I’m any less of a human being. All human beings are equal when they are born, but it’s what they do in their life that determines their worth.

Here’s a little tip for when you look at a stranger. Things like color, gender, sexuality, weight, height, disabilities, talent, employment, nationality, faith, etc? None of it matters! Who they are is what determines whether or not they’re a good person! Not things like appearance or whether they have to have extra help!!

I’ve met some of the most amazing people, but they all have had major roadblocks at times. They are all some of the most uplifting, nicest, and loving people that I have ever had the honor to meet and befriend.

I’ve rambled enough, though. I guess I’ll close this off with what I believe: Some things may be unforgivable. Some things you may not mean to do. Some things you may do are utter bull. All that. None of it means you’re any less human.

Even the worst of us have something that others can learn from, be it how not to be a good president or how to speak up and advocate for yourself. Everyone has something to teach, even the worst of us.

Sincerely, DustFox

My personal Legends Arceus Nuzlocke ruleset for when I eventually get to it:

For the sake of actually progressing (since certain areas are locked until you get certain Pokédex ranks), you are allowed to catch multiple Pokémon in a single area, however you can only use the first one. Though this has a number of clauses.

Unown: Ok to capture, can't use (but like- why would I?)

Alpha: Can only capture one of each evolution line, able to use

Rift: Can only capture one per rift, assuming I can capture one

Quests: If it's a required catch for main / side quests, it's fair game.

Shiny: If it's a shiny, it's fair game (so literally the Shiny Clause).

If you fail to capture a Pokémon the first time, as long as it doesn’t despawn, you’re allowed to continue throwing Pokéballs.

Nicknames are mandatory for usable Pokémon.

Fast travel: in town is ok; in the field isn't.

Resting: Only for healing: no; Time skip: ok.

You are allowed to withdraw unusable Pokémon specifically to have them evolve. Getting all the Pokémon is the name of the game. You’re just not allowed to use them in battles.

No buying materials or items from the general store that you can find out in the wild or craft yourself, do things with your own hands! Though you are allowed to buy things from the MP shop.

The run starts after getting the starter.

No save scumming, obviously.

If the 'mon faints, it's dead and must be perma-boxed.

If you faint in the field, you're dead and the run is over.

You have three lives across the run during the fights where you yeet balms. If you lose all three, you’re dead and the run is over.

You are allowed to revive one Pokémon after each of the balm-yeeting fights.

I think this is a good ruleset in between challenge and good for complete beginners (read: me). I'm probably going to record / stream and make a comic based on my playthrough. Who knows?

Though this is obviously going to be after I beat it normally.
