Roll some dice if Serendipity ever pulls you aside to whisper something in your ear. Her words are as certain as a gamble.
Should she ever stare into your eyes as she speaks to you, her smile faint or, for once, touching her eyes --heed her words, as they are, for once, the honest truth.
BEKJBKFDWBLHAHIEIHWW HELLO EVERYBODY LONG TIME NO SEE!!!!!
TOUCHSTARVED FINALLY GOT A DEMO UPDATE NOT TOO LONG AGO!! FHWHP;HJPWEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I'm quite happy about it, as you can tell. In fact, I've already played through most of the new content and will eventually play out the rest soon. Anywho!
Upon playing the game again, I got the inkling to revisit my semi-abandoned (lol not really, but it feels that way!) Unnamed!OC, (Ex?) Priestess, Serendipity!
Drawing the radial chart was fun, but in all honesty, I found myself kinda struggling to get started AND to keep going at various points throughout the whole process. I think I just had a bit of a hard time thinking of how to convey her personality through her clothing, especially because I like to change her outfit a lot, but I also had difficulty writing her blurb and filling out the radial chart.
I just kept thinking: "Hmmm... this OC is kinda OP-ish in my mind, but I know that in a fanon-canon universe, she wouldn't be THAT OP (at all), soooo... I can't make her too strong or charming." BUT!!! On the other hand, I was just like: "Then again, she's a priest pursuing some kind of solution, if not cure to her horrible curse so she can return to her temple and publicly philosophize again! She's literally the type to use her philosophizing to her advantage (i.e. charisma) and brute-force her way through if all else fails (strength)! So... she can't be especially weak or uncharismatic, either..."
Ultimately, I went with my intuition and just gave her the stats I gave her. I still tried to keep a sense of flaw/genuine imperfection by making one of her stats "Honesty," soooo... yeah. She's got a 0.5, y'all. Not even a full point! LMBO. Do with that what you will... and trust her at your own risk.
Anywho, I hope you guys like it, and I hope the TS community can come back to life a bit with this new update! We still have many, many, MANY more months before the game comes out (I think it's coming out this year... I think), and dammit --I need some more Kuras and/or Mhin x Reader fanfics STAT!!! Lol. I may eventually add to that pool myself, IDK --we'll see where the wind takes me. That said, enjoy the art, everyone!!
I COULDN'T HELP MYSELF SHFLABIOEDNLWNEPFHPQJPWEJJO
The game is just TOO BEAUTIFUL... The (potential) release date is just TOO FAR... I finally caved in and made a formal OC (T_T)
Her name's Serendipity! I wanted to be sure to type that because even though I included a second version of her name in a sans font for readability, I acknowledge that it's tiny, and some people might want somewhere else to look and easily catch her name (if the more elaborate font I used wasn't readable to the potential viewer).
Anyway, for her fatal flaw, I debated between her stupid overzealousness unbridled bravery and her horrendous hypocritical behavior for a looooonnngggg while, lol. I imagined that despite supposedly coming from a land known for some of the gentlest philosophies toward life, she's learned to use violence to get what she wants. Because of her childish belief that someway, somehow, she can get her way no matter what, she decides (at some point) that leading with violence can be acceptable --so long as she's not just... going around and whacking people, right? ...Right?
Needless to say, she HATES when people point out her hypocrisy. Her favorite and most irritating response is always:
"Do as I say, not as I do!"
Sometimes, she inadvertenly competes with Leander in a battle of charm. Both of them are the "Charming Leader" types in their own ways --with Leander leading a huge band of thugs professionals and Serendipity leading her devout followers who continue to devote themselves to her philosophy even after her dismissal as a priestess. Although, Leander seems to always win --perhaps because he can be much more accommodating as compared to Serendipity who just can't help always wanting it her way...
Thus, here, I present my Unnamed!Ex(?)-Priestess!OC, Serendipity!
EDIT: you know… my stupid ass forgot that the MC is supposed to have wrapped fingers, so… LET’S JUST SAY SHE WANTED TO TAKE THE BANDAGES OFF FOR HER LITTLE PHOTO 😭😭 and let’s just kindly ignore how slightly OOC for the canon Touchstarved MC that is… 😅🤪
"The Kurogane Doctrine" | Platonic!BoruTsuba Fan Comic
"... It will be "The Kurogane Doctrine of Peace."
________________________________________________
A short Platonic!BoruTsuba comic (although you're more than free to interpret it however you want). Not perfect at all, let alone especially well-drawn, but it was mostly done for fun anyway, otherwise the goal was simply to practice comic-drafting (sh!t ain't easy, either!).
I imagine this is taking place sometime before the chuunin exams, somewhere around Tsubaki's introduction and slight expansion on her samurai background.
In this comic, the beginning picks up with the end of an intense spar between Tsubaki and Boruto. It all began when Boruto wanted to prove to Tsubaki that shinobi were just as great and formidable as samurai. But unfortunately for him, Tsubaki's a stubborn little girl! And unfortunately for her, so is Boruto!
There's only one way a disagreement between two stubborn people can end... and that's with a truce!
(1K+ Words) Most people have heard of this game before, right? … Stardew Valley! Stardew Valley is a farming simulator, RPG, and dating gam
Throwback to when I first wrote this post!! On the real, I should definitely write something else about Stardew Valley or it’s developer… or maybe the Haunted Chocolatier? Kinda excited for that title to be honest!!
