{ ooc } Ho-kay, crisis averted! Support wrote back, Javascript’s enabled, so we’re just about ready to be in business!

Of note since I wrote last!

The muse directory is finalized!

The rules have been updated! Added a few additional tidbits in reference to how the multimuse works as well as a list of icon credits.

New pen name! Maybe a moot point after several years on here, buuuut I’m gonna go by “Zeph” from hereon - fits the theme!

And with that, I’m moving all activity from my other blogs (being @macuilsung, @windstormwielding, and the latter’s sideblogs @bellringerbrawler, @starlariat, and @sharkfallen) to here! That means asks, threads, drafts, and so on will be done through here from this point on!

So to my mutuals from the blogs listed above, consider this post an unofficial promo of sorts until I get a proper one put together for galeforged. I’ll get started on writing again proper come tomorrow after work or on the weekend! My Discord is also available to those who would like to keep touch off Tumblr, so do ask if you wish for it!

#{ beyond the sky ☁ ooc ☁ }#{ ooc: the work is done!

{ ooc } So I’ll be bringing Kōta and company back in a week or so, but as for how? Well…

#{ beyond the sky ☁ ooc ☁ }#{ and an afternoon reblog! more deets in the tags from the initial post- }

{ ooc } Lord help me I might make a multimuse after all…

What started as a “Should I consider making a carrd or something?” went and spiralled into a whole “Well while I’m at it…”, and now I’m here deliberating amalgamating this and my other blogs (being the Bleach-oriented @windstormwielding, @bellringerbrawler, @starlariat, and @sharkfallen) all into one place?

Upside, it means I can just as easily trial and add new muses and fandoms—AUs not withstanding—without creating new blogs to go with them from scratch. I did introduce a couple of guest muses before on windstormwielding, and I also actually considered making Raphael at one point before going all-in on Forwin. Plus, there was that other Ashen Wolf OC I drafted… In short, the end result would have me still have my faves without neglecting them entirely, just by virtue of not bothering to log in and then whining about it to myself either. Basically, big points for convenience!

Downside, it also means I could be indulging in fandoms not all mutuals would care about at best and actively dislike at worst. I would still have muses I favour over others, like Forwin and Kōtarō being primaries (goal being not to outright forget all of them and let them gather dust). This would also require a whole new tagging system for people to block said posts, but even minimised, these would take up dash space… but I’m not always active as is with my sporadic activity, so would that be a big problem anyway? I might need tips on tags tho from more experienced blogs on that front-

What do you guys think? Should I just bite the bullet and get it done with?

#{ beyond the sky ☁ ooc ☁ }#{ ooc: something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately- }

{ ooc } Gonna be out all day for Valentine’s!

In the menatime, if mutuals do feel inclined, please like this post for a starter (multis, please be specific for muse!) and I’ll get to them when I return this evening. Gotta shake some rust off for boyo here! ship partners are likely to receive thematically appropriate fluff

a gust of ice. “ Do you think I’m stupid? ”

A Lieutenant may have shrieked from that immediate onslaught of blistering cold, and quickly wrapped his own arms around himself to keep warm.

“THAT’S NOT FAIR-!” She knew he hated the cold!

“I-I’m awake, I’m awake!” No, he was not dozing off at his desk, that was just a surprise jolt from suddenly being spoken to, what are you talking about-

#candidaluna #{ kota vc: me? asleep? at work? pft- }

At first, it remained a gentle breeze. Soft and otherwise unremarkable in its consistency that one may mistake it as the air sitting still. This was the case across the Seireitei, with the compound of the Thirteenth Division being no exception.

At least, that was until its flow slowly shifted near the courtyard. A change in direction, a higher surge in wind velocity, and branches from planted trees shaking with growing intensity all pointed to the arrival of the squad’s second-in-command, back at last from a self-imposed “extended sabbatical.”

Though leave was no stranger to higher-ranking shinigami for any odd reason, his real motive in how he had spent his time off was known to all but a select and trusted few. Kōtarō had kept mum on his machinations out in the furthest reaches of the Rukongai, though if a reiatsu-sensitive soul had sought to seek him out, his intentions would have been obvious.

It took some time for him to swallow some unnerving revelations around his late Captain and Rukia’s predecessor, granted, but Lieutenant Ryōhei had already come this far. He wasn’t about to slow down his Bankai training now, not when he was already close, and thanks to his time away, he was closer than ever to achieving his goal of realizing it.

The straw from his waraji met with the smooth tiled flooring of the court of pure souls hard; Kōta practically dug his front heel into the ground as he skidded along at blistering speeds, with his blue scarf whipping about recklessly behind him. Having used Hai’iro Ranmaru’s power over wind to propel his flash steps all the faster, it only made coming to a full stop all the harder in turn, with turbulence in his wake pushing him forward in spite of his resisting efforts to slow down. Teeth ground against themselves as he strained against his own built-up momentum, with the sliding vice-captain leaning back while he slammed his gloved palm down – change his shihakushō for a baseball uniform and he would look no different than a player of the sport cinching a homerun against all odds!

If anything, this series of almost haphazard actions— a result of his going almost uncontrollably fast—made him appreciate the Goddess of Flash’s talents all the more. How does Yoruichi pull it off so seemingly effortlessly?

With a final sigh escaping his lungs, leaving the rest of the airstream to pass over his fallen form and beat on the wood of the doors into the main hall of the barracks, Kōtarō groaned as he pushed himself back up and onto his feet and patted off any dirt that clung to the black of his clothes. Goggles were then lifted so that his green eyes may properly take in the view of present company who came to greet him, and with a lackadaisical smile and a quick shake of his shoulder to readjust the bag at his back, he spoke as though he never left!

“Hello there~!” He spent enough time being Serious Kōtarō already, so it was nice to fall back instead into being Laidback Kōta again.

#{ a badge of honour ☁ verse ☁ }#{ spring breeze ☁ open ☁ }#{ ooc: it's more of a one-shot to shake off rust and fall back into things- }#{ buuuuuut if anyone wants to follow up on it it's fair game-! }

{ ooc } Okay so saying I was back immediately before Legends Arceus dropped may have been a bad call on my part (oops)-

In my defence, I simply grossly underestimated how addicting the gameplay loop got.

...also shit, Kōta’s birthday was yesterday-

#{ listen to the rhythm of the falling rain ☁ playlist ☁ }#{ ooc: okay so I developed a mild obsession with FF7R's music so expect a couple of tracks on the blogs LMAO- }

“Hey, you! You’re finally awake.”

#{ beyond the sky ☁ ooc ☁ }#{ kota vc: what's a 'skyrim?' }#{ ooc: we're back~! }#{ and saying hello from a brand spanking new time zone- 👀 }

A harsh, dejected sigh slipped from parted lips as he continued to stare at the object of his abject grief.

With his gaze transfixed to the calendar, Kōtarō could only mope for the end of summer, the coming of fall... and the continuous, encroaching approach of winter’s chill. At least the rain during autumn isn’t all bad (despite it lacking the extra kick of summer storms), but days are only gonna get shorter and colder.

Here’s my work from this year, delivered to the gallery (West End gallery, Corning NY). It sure has been a year, feeling like I’ve been in “survival mode”. It’s been a challenge to make art. That said, some of these felt really great to paint. Top to bottom, left to right: “Crescent” Osprey, 20″x16″ oil on panel. “Vernal” Hermit Thrush (with wood frog), 10″x8″ oil on panel. My thanks to Andy Reago and Chrissy McClarren of Flickr for their reference photograph of this bird! “Autumn Queen” Belted Kingfisher, 10″x8″ oil on panel. My thanks to Andy Reago and Chrissy McClarren of Flickr for their reference photograph of this bird! “Thinking About Tomorrow” American Crow, 10″x8″ oil on panel. “New Neighbor” Red-Winged Blackbird, 8″x10″ oil on panel. “Maple Mothers” Eastern Bluebird (with queen bumblebee), 8″x10″ oil on panel. “Tufted Titmouse”, 7″x5″ oil on panel. “Watcher of the Hoh” Grey/Canada Jay, 14″x11″ oil on panel. “Regal” Golden-Breasted Starling, 14″x6″ oil on stretched linen. “Spring Beacons” Northern Parula Warbler, 12″x16″ oil on panel.

{ ooc } Hey one and all, ya boy has returned from his vacation! Now that I’ve about fully rested, I’ll definitely be popping in more frequently again between here and Forwin now, hahaha.

That said, I’m just gonna up and put out an open call, since I know a fair few mutuals of mine are artists yourselves: who would be available to make brand new icons for my boyo? Since Kōta’s gotten a new look a short while ago, I’ve been wanting to get new icons of him done with it in mind, to reflect the new one-shot and time period going forward (while keeping the existing ones for interactions earlier in the Bleach timeline!) and to kickstart my muse something fierce.

An artist I am not, sadly, so I’m turning to pleading advertising. I shopped around a bit before, but some folks weren’t available for one reason or another, and I wasn’t about to badger ‘em on the matter further.

Of course, I’m not stupid or cheap enough to ask for a whole bunch of new icons to be done for free. So, if anyone’s willing, lemme know what your rates are!
