here's some more answers to asks we've received over the last wee while ~! :3

in regards to random one-off background ocs, i usually try to do people that don't always look completely like generic mobs, and some of them also get more interesting designs such as tutor lady here, mostly because i prefer the idea of the world looking like it's full of people who could all be the main character in their own stories. that said, i don't try to think too deeply about backstories or making every single person interconnected, because if i did, i'd never ever ever EVER get anything done lol

there's been a few asks coming in over the last wee while, and tbf i've been slack the last month or so thanks to certain games (and i still have yet to get into the new MHStories and then tomolife's out soon too aaaaaaa) but i am still defo getting pages done piece by piece in the downtime between everything~ for now though, here's some answers to things you guys have pondered~!

Valentine's & White Day Notice~!

It's almost that time of year when people get all silly and fluffy (and chocolatey) with their partners and those they care about ~ And we're no exception here lol

A couple years back I got sprung with vday gift art, and thought it'd be nice to try an open art trade once again~ Anything subbed for Valentine's will be returned for White Day~!

Valentine's Subs: - The Blog will be accepting subs for VDay from Feb 1st - 22nd - Subs need to have both your OC and the recipient OC (Alex, Max, etc) clearly in the picture - Please make sure to send us a message via askbox if you post your work on your own blog so that we can reblog it here~! (OP is a notorious lurker and doesn't really see much outside this blog :'3) - Absolutely NO gen.ai - We are firm on our No-Ai stance here.

White Day: - Will post return art on Mar. 14 in one special post! - Effort spent is effort returned ~ (ie, colour sent gets colour back, chibi sent gets chibi back, i won't just toss a sketch in return to a full-colour work!)

I can't wait to see what you craft~! <3

so i apparently opened quite an interesting door with the potential for shipping, huh XD

haven't got much else to say that i haven't already covered in the post proper, but i can say that i included max bc he does have a crush on sonia, but the other three rivals are not max's type and they're all too focused on the league to bother much with other people, thus their omission. as for alex, he's by no means gender blind, but is defo having a hard time parsing the black & white 'rules' when him and his current environment are nothing but a million grey tones. :')

i love how the current story is getting to y'all lmao

You know, this may be my insomnia coordinating my thoughts but do you ever wonder if in the world of Pokemon, do people in corporations/big businesses also have to do Pokemon battles to get promotions?

Like defeat all 8 of your supervisors and your current CEO and you become the current one?

you might be onto something there anon - i wouldn't be surprised if that's how Geeta got into all her positions -like seriously! why is that woman chair of the school board, E4 leader, AND in charge of area zero all at once?????? she must've jumped all the previous heads when they weren't prepared or something 8U
