I really need to get into fanbinding or I'm going to fucking go broke trying to win a bunch of FTH bids.

Posting this in the tags so the experts can advise on how to do this with only like 5 cubic feet of space available for this hobby.

omg, this is so cute :O you clearly chose the best prize they had.

For @stupidtoypictures and @crabofdoom a tiny little mouse n cheese charm that originally hung from a pink cord. Got it the first time I went to Chuck E Cheese c 1985.

It is quite small, perhaps 1.5in tall. Here it is next to LEGO Santa for comparison. It is currently being used as a Christmas ornament on my little 24in Christmas tree.

"This one looks scary! Let's play it, Link!"

I couldn't sleep last night, so the fun starts early with a bonus.

I had a Princess Tiffany with one of those hats (but teardrops?), and I'm so amused that someone else did the same thing I did, to keep the elastic tight once the stretch gave out. Knot it? No! Simple royal bridle time.

ringnis Gay Doll Comics Presents: An Intimate Evening

There is really far too much to say about this comic, but I will say this. It drove me to my limits and beyond, but I didn't give in, I took a break and came back stronger. I hope you liked it!

I have something controversial to say: I FUCKING HATE THE GUMMY, STICKY TEXTURE OF VALLEJO PAINT. IT TAKES FUCKING FOREVER TO CURE AND THERE ARE BRUSH STROKES EVERYWHERE. WHY IS IT LIKE THIS? IT'S THICK AND FUNKY. Ugh. UGH. SO GROSS.

Okay. Got that out of my system. (Why am I using it? I had no choice. Tamiya, the brand I swear by, puts a little bit of black in their blue paint, so it's impossible to mix this shade of green.)

*ahem*

Before she's finished - and there's still a long way to go - I'll address the Vah Ruta in the room. I know Yona is a strongly disliked character, especially among sidlink fans.

FIRST: If you're wondering, "Is this the end of ERC's sidlink photos?" No, don't worry. Alongside my usual sidlink photos, there will also be sidona and sidlinkona photos. The same way I've posted zelink and ship-free photos before. I don't dislike any sh- okay, there's ONE notp in my life, but it's not in this fandom.

SECOND: If the reason you hate her is because she gets in the way of your ship.... Try to reexamine her without that lens. Replay the game and take a fresh look at what she does and how she interacts with Link. I think you'll like what you see.

I bound @perpetualcontrolleddrowning's beautiful and heart-wrenching SVSSS fanfic, Dreaming You the Same Sun in a Different Place into a book. One for each of us!

Because it's SVSSS, everything just had to be green. I used scrapbook paper and recycled fabric for the covers, with hand-drawn gold foil lettering and cotton thread for the endbands. I accidentally wrecked one copy while casing in, so I had to start over with all new cover paper. Luckily I have a whole block of stone-textured papers, and there was another one in green. Considering this story is about rebuilding connections in an unfamiliar world, it's kind of fitting after all.

The title font is Love Letter TW. It was super popular among computer nerds in the 90s. It was even used in an anime about people whose consciousness shifts onto the internet when they die. Sounds familiar, right? 😉

The author's copy will go into the mail in a few days, and mine will take its place on my bookshelf. I'm so glad I was able to bind this!
