Hey Frank, you're not related to Stable Diffusion or anything, are you? I imagine it would make family get-togethers awkward if you were.

Yep! And there's no particular reason for that, it just happened. (My parents are divorced, and one parent has two children from a previous marriage.)

can I say that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the way you draw facial expressions, you have no idea the amount of joy it brings me

I am happy that you find so much joy in them!!!

If it makes you feel any better I have no idea what rpf, mcyt, mcsmp, etc. etc. are and am just tired of epithets in not only fanfiction, but published fiction.

Mcyt fans and normal people can unite in their hate for epithets

A gift, freely given: A nine-pack of plain blue ballpoint pens. I made sure to test them all first, which is why there's only nine (the tenth was junk, I gave it to the crows to add some colour to their nests). Enjoy your ink!

I shall! In return, a charm for you: a sprig of edelweiss, the flower as impossibly fresh and lovely as it was on the day it was offered to me. Tucked behind your ear or into a buttonhole, it will make it easier for those who love you to find you - whether that’s in a crowd at the goblin market or in the shadowed heart of the forest. A good thing for when you worry you may become lost.

Hey there, tons of thanks for all the fantastic patterns you guys regularly release! I'm finally at the stage of finishing off my cross-stitch for gifting, but all the tutorials I've found say to use batting when doing a final framing. Do you know if this is really necessary? Does anyone in the void have any comparisons of batted pieces vs non-batted pieces?

I bet someone in the void does!

I'll add that Windows users can do accented letters if they have a numpad on their keyboard (as long as Num Lock is turned ON): Hold down the left Alt, punch out the 4-number code for the letter on the numpad, and release Alt. You can get the 4-number codes from the Character Map program to start with; select the letter you want and it'll appear in the status bar in the bottom right as "Keystroke: Alt+xxxx". (e.g. É is Alt+0201) I used these so often for French class in grade school that I still have most of them memorized lol. They're also in alphabetical/accent order, so if you go just one number up, you can get the next letter in the sequence. è = 0232, é = 0233, ê = 0234, etc.

Hey!!

In answer to this ask about the accent on names like Amélie and Émilie, and in addition to this one indicating how to make accent for Apple users.

Thanks for the tips, hope it'll help Windows users around! 😄

I noticed that while the Happily Ever After episode is accessible on the Itch website, it isn't available from the Install options on the Itch program/app. After some poking around I think it's because the Ever After ep doesn't have Windows/Linux/Mac associations assigned to it while all of the other episodes do.

Should be fixed!
