I hit the fandom scene a little too late when it came to the HP fandom (though I loved the books) but all this Draco/Hermione has me 👀 my mind has expanded. And your art, gorgeous as ever.

Love the books as well! Thank you x

Luna linda! I read your tags on my art every now and then because sometimes it hurts to create and I become bitter. Eres luz y te mando muchas bendiciones. That Ignis/Nyx response was wonderful 💓

At first I read “Luna linda” and I was like “is latte mistaking me for someone else I’m not Luna or known by the name of- wAIT A MINUTE ‘MOON’ OMFGIODFGJJAS H AAAAAAAAAAA- *explodes*”

“Sometimes it hurts to create”. But why? I’m not sure I understand, we all work differently. I guess creating sometimes hurts and that’s good cause you’re venting things out via art. But maybe you mean it hurts as in in a bad way? A way that gives you more hurt than what you drop out? 

I’m sorry if that’s what happens. Creating shouldn’t work like that or do that. Do stop if it’s giving you troubles, just enough to take a breath before retaking it. 

“Eres luz y te mando muchas bendiciones” <—- (ಥ﹏ಥ)

*ugly sobbing* No sé ni cómo responderte eso. Se siente tan, tan, tan hermoso que me hayas dicho eso. Se siente tan puro y tan…no sé cómo. Es algo que se siente muy sincero y de cierto modo íntimo, como algo que no se regala a cualquiera. De verdad muchas gracias. Recibe todo esto tan bonito de vuelta. Racc sends you so much, you close your eyes and feel it, okay? ;A;

That Ignis/Nyx THAT WAS SUCH A PRETTY THING TO WRITE OFGIDJGFG. Your comment along another one made it absolutely damn worth it. It was incredible and super sweet to read those pretty comments in there. I felt like I wasn’t that ignored after all, and praised, too. 

MUCHÍSIMAS GRACIAS, DE VERDAD NO SÉ CÓMO CONTESTARTE Y ENTRO EN PÁNICO PORQUE GRACIAS NO SE SIENTE COMO SUFICIENTE HNFGDJGNFG (ﾉД`)

*squints* so Shining Ambitions (wow I think i just got the title). Anywho, is it sorta like a low-key steampunk 1900s AU? I want to get a better understanding!

omg, first of all thanks a lot for an ask on my story ;w;!! I think it’s a first x3(And yes the title is long, sorry for that but you got it! xD)And then: YOU ARE RIGHT, IT IS! I still wasn’t able to get this seep through the lines very well but I originally had a steampunk/ art nouveau look to it in mind when creating this! I absolutely love steampunk designs, so in the first place it’s for the looks |DI wanted to keep it minimalistic though, so it’s not like a grown sci-fi setting but rather a realistic one with hints of it in the technology, medicine etc. IMost of the automatic stuff in this world still works by burning stuff, mostly charcoal, whereas gas is a rather high-class alternative. The upper ring of Insomnia then has that technology that filters this pollution in the air, sort of like building up the Wall in the original game (I am not yet 100% clear how it works yet though |’D). The pollution from there is directed towards “outwards” that ring.This is why the lower ring and the outskirts of Insomnia have a lower air quality. The outskirts being the worst, because the factories are situated there.Cars are most common in the inner ring, though by “cars” I really mean that kind of vehicles you can find around 1900 |D

I’m currently working on gadget ideas to put into the story, to get this through better. More cogwheels, shining copper and brass. I don’t know how far you read by now, but I tried with the little cactuar toys and Ravus’ arm for example, and there is more to come in regards of the scent industry. At least I have it planned.I hope this… illustrates it a bit better? (I don’t know how much of that I already put into the story by now, so I hope it’s not just all repetition |’D)Don’t hesitate to ask ahead if there I stuff you want to know more about! I’m so happy you try to get into understanding this little baby of mine, you can’t imagine! ;w; Thank you!!!

I can't fucking...i just can't. Jesus grab the wheel because I'M OUT OF MY FUCKING MIND.

ME TOO! If this was only the trailer we’re going to die from the actual DLC     (づ╥﹏╥)づ

Hey! Your blog is amazing! So you mentioned you burnt out in 2015. And that you've been slowly falling in love with art again. I've been struggling, awfully so, to get myself into gear. How are you managing that? I'm low-key dying. Again, your stuff is wonderful 😍

Ahh quite frankly, it still feels like pulling teeth, even after nearly 2 years of feeling this way. All I can really say is be attentive to your emotions/mental state, take breaks (either small ones or big ones aka not drawing at all) when you feel like you need to, and be patient with yourself. Often times, it’s a lot of tiny steps that will help lead you somewhere out of your block/burn out. Small victories or little things that make you go “Okay that didn’t turn out too bad!”. Going back to your roots or flipping through stuff that inspires you is really good to do, even during break times. Occasionally you’ll make huge strides or have sudden epiphanies, but those are rather few and far between in my experience. Focusing on the small, immediate goals is much more rewarding and far less daunting than trying to look too much into the future.

Let yourself rest, but keep your head up when you trip and fail. These sorts of blocks always happens in waves, and it’ll always feel like you’re drowning for the longest time, but eventually you’ll figure something out that will let you break the surface and breathe.

latte-cosmico replied to your photo“I know how to fix it, but even so this Rochelle I picked up still has...”

Curious because I've tried a few things, how do you do it? I got two Lagoonas with frightening cases.

my personal method is:

-to remove the head, -massage talcum powder into the hair, really saturate it with the stuff, -also fill the head with more powder (to help slow future leaking at the source) -set the head aside for for several days (the talc should absorb the glue) -shake out the loose powder from the head  -wash the dolls hair, if it still feels sticky after drying repeat step 2 -when the hair doesn’t feel sticky anymore you can put the head back on

I hope this helps! c:

Heyyyy. Happy Saturdayyyy! Read the counterpart with Iggy and Noct and it was lovely (from the Gladio/Prompto fic)! How are you doing? Also, what's your fave angsty headcannon AND/OR thing you read? (Cuz ya know, not enough of that in the actual game *__*)

Hi friend! I’m sorry this is so late *sweats in Spanish* I’m horrible about answering my asks these days WHOOPS but, um, thank you so much for the compliment :3 I can’t remember which fic you’re referring to at this point, though lol

Let’s see. My favorite angsty headcanon. Well besides Ignis literally willing to sacrifice his life for Noctis (because that’s actual canon now), it would probably be Ardyn suffering two millennia of maddening loneliness. I mean, that much crazy doesn’t happen overnight, y’know? It’s so tragic to think about how his mind twisted and warped over the course of all those years. I would love to - someday, not now bc i’m overwhelmed with projects - delve into his backstory and give him the attention he really deserves. 

I love Ardyn okay, I LOVE HIM 

But maybe Square Enix will give us some good content in the new year *fingers crossed* - and we’ll have even more angst to wallow in because they haven’t tortured us enough with these boys :’)
