The Final Fem V Friday

(of 2022)

I didn't nearly forget the last one of the year, what? But taking pics today gave me a chance to reflect back on a full year's worth of Fem V Friday, and what better way to close out the year than with double trouble?

2022 was a big year for me and Val. A year ago I had just wrapped up my longfic and was opining on how much fandom meant to me. Corpo!Val was yet to be born. I certainly didn't expect Val to have as many fans as she does, and it warms my heart that my awkward, goofy streetkid means something to others.

So here's to 2022, and may 2023 be full of light and love for all of you!

📸 by @bnbc, thank you!!

Val borrowed Kou's pants, it's canon.

Happiest of birthdays, @fereldanwench! Thanks for letting Val take the gorgeous Valerie out for a drink!

tfw your "I don't need an output" "friend" wants to meet at the local watering hole...

...except you're not the only ones with that idea.

when you and your bestie show up wearing the same outfit unplanned.

Baby belongs to dear friend @itsstillnunyabizu. Can't believe our Vs finally got to meet, and can't wait to see what they get up to. 😏

So much gratitude to @noraleedoes for the NPV 2.0 Tutorial! I learned a lot because of you, and I can't wait to break some stuff with this new knowledge!

Love to @soobawlz, @wingdeer, and @bubble-bones for allowing me to use your hard work to keep Val looking sharp!

Bonus shot: because I can't resist photo mode when Mitch is around, and I absolutely did not take pictures of him before the Vs, but I did happen to notice this cute lil cowlick on the back of his head. 🥺
