I made my adrestian trio miis!!! This face paint feature is so good but it's a bit hard to draw with my chub fingers 🤣

My Edelgard cosplay is happening... I was never confident in my own body, but I gave in to my desire to try for the first time. It's going to take a couple of months, but I'm hoping it'll turn out the way I envision it!

I've never seen anything with Dimitri x Ferdinand, could you share your ideas with that? (It seems very interesting in theory!)

I think I've mentioned this before on my blog, but I see them well together in Azure Moon if you recruit Ferdinand! Dimitri craves an equal, as mentioned in his support with Dedue, and I think Ferdinand would be up to the challenge. Not in a physical fight, but to challenge him politically as a leader

In Ferdinand's B support with Edelgard, she told Ferdinand that she would've lost the dual if she hadn't struck first. It suggests that she couldn't afford to see Ferdinand on equal footing, opposed to Dimitri's wishes (the A support is locked to timeskip though and she does value Ferdinand's reasonable challenging in the end, but if Ferdinand joins the Blue Lions, the A support would cease to be basically). So because Edelgard couldn't accept Ferdinand, Dimitri would instead. Ferdinand is so disliked by basically all of the Black Eagles during the Academy phase, so I think that it's not difficult to understand he would want to switch classes LOL THE POOR THING, YET HE'S LITERALLY THE HARDEST ONE TO RECRUIT IN THE GAME WTF

I wouldn't treat Ferdinand as Dedue or Byleth's "replacement" to Dimitri obviously, but I think Ferdinand has the personality that would confront Dimitri directly without hesitation, and be there for him through his depressed state even if Dimitri was frustrating to deal with. Ferdinand has no fear

That aside, I think a support between them was a missed opportunity. They have similar likes with training, weapons, and armory, but Nintendo didn't write one!!

Them falling in love is just a bonus though, and knowing me, I love my BL lol

TLDR: They're both hot boys that just make sense together despite not having any canon lore

Also, erotic lance fight sketch of them, here you go

These were my favorite cosplayers I got to meet while tabling at fanime!!! A summer blue lions group (Ashe, Annette, Sylvain, and Felix) and Female Byleth!! I was dressed as Edelgard!

I'm not comfortable showing faces so I won't be doing that on any of my posts 😌

Do people still like Hetalia, I suddenly got a huge wave of nostalgia for no reason LOL WHO ELSE ACED THEIR WORLD HISTORY CLASSES BECAUSE OF IT

[calamari-inari]

After about two days of playing Tomodachi Life, FE3H simulator, my ferdibert miis already got married, Dimitri developed a crush on Female Byleth, and Dorothea fell in love with Edelgard at first sight LOL it's been great

I think I want to try making all the main students first before really decorating my island. The island is surprisingly tiny, but I know it'll get bigger as I add more miis!

Rant incoming about work culture...

If I was just suddenly fired from my job, would I give my current career path a second chance? Probably not because fuck that shit, I don't wanna support (gen) AI in this time and age

The thing about working in tech is that you're being forced to use it while also being against it. It's terrible here.

Also only speaking for myself but there's so much nepotism at my company. I've been working here for over 3 years and there's some dude that I knew in high school who's the son of one the directors in higher positions is earning 3 or 4 times my salary. Been there since a fresh new grad and he still doesn't know shit or how to manage

And I literally just overheard some women complaining about work-life balance as I was writing this post. People stay past 9 pm every day, me included sometimes. We can't keep going on like this

I really don't like to rant about irl problems on my art account but we're all struggling to stay afloat. I'm mentally, physically, and emotionally exhausted and idk how long I'm able to last

Anyway, yeah this is basically an art account, but I'm human too. I hope you'll forgive me

Someone scream about the new fire emblem with me please.... I can't believe it's in the same universe as Three Houses 😭😭😭💖 What a time to own a switch 2!!!
