The thing for me w/ The Loyal Pin so far is that the surface-level narrative, the on-its-face text, is extremely fun, cute, sexy, visually indulgent, entertaining, etc etc. I'm having a great time.
BUT
The under-the-surface narrative, all the fucking weird power shit between Anin and her whole family and Patt and Pin and the servants, it is so crunchy tasty delicious and I am actively in pain that I don't know or trust that the story is going anywhere with any of it. You know?
When Anin casually abuses her power and everyone in her life praises her for it and calls her brilliant and bold and special and daring, when Patt beats Pin for Anin's choices (playing near a snake Pin LET BITE HER TO PROTECT ANIN) like some kind of whipping girl, when Prik is the most devoted telepathically-connected minion sidekick anyone could ever ask for but can only play tennis if Anin feels like granting her the privilege (+ when Anin friendzoning her is a foregone conclusion by the narrative), ahhhhh there's just SOOO MUCHHHH happening, the possessive ownership Anin feels for Pin is so delicious and Theerapanyakulian, and I do wish that I could just immerse myself in it fully believing it was going somewhere and not just. Existing. Ambiently. As you do in a story about royals and servants and servantfamily.

life pro tip: buy miniature cookware. it saves space and a lot of mini appliances come with little recipe books as well. if it's too small to cook a filling meal in one go, simply prep your ingredients so you can make more servings more quickly. i.e. mini waffle maker makes too-tiny waffles?? you will have excess batter just make more. tiny skillet makes too-small portions?? set your chicken and spices or whatever you have aside and make more servings. plus your next serving is freshly cooked oooo. mini baking stuff?? make another batch babyyyy that's half of baking anyway
*DISCLAIMER: this user keeps buying mini cookware because its cute and is also currently fantasizing about living independently and is Coping. life pro tip may not be effective for all readers.

Erm!! I did more art!!!!!! My art style is so inconsistent I want to draw more realistically but I'm goofy goober at my core....... Gehahahaha
Also???? Pony Error under cut??????? (and a few error sketches!) Hidden slightly because I'm still a bit unsure about the design RAHH
I think it'd be cool if he had strings all over his body like he was some mangled stupid hasbro official pony plushie...... but the strings were like insanely last minute LMAO so I want to redo it again with that in mind.... when the pony takes me over again.
Transcript for Pony Info (because my handwriting is a bit messy)
PONY INFO!
Strings run along entire body
Used to have a cutie mark, but the file is "lost"
Horn sparks & glitches dangerously when using magic
-> Not harmful to him, but strong emotions can cause it to flare up (basically when the horn starts fuzzing a lot you know he's close to a full-on reboot)
Whatever the hell this thing is core -> (pic of very stupid looking Hasbro official Princess Twilight Sparkle plushie with brushable hair!!!! Batteries not included)

I am nearly done with all of my Pokeani charm designs for my shop drop later this year...after that I'll probably start working on One Piece charms!! Except they have way too many outfits to choose from! Help!!!
I'm probably going to make a poll to vote for your favorite post timeskip outfit for each Strawhat? (And also Law probably bc he goes through a few wardrobe changes as well) And whichever one gets the most votes for each will be the outfit I draw them in for the initial charms 🤔 Pairing them together by arc probably makes more sense but there's some outfits I like more than others lol so. Idk. I'll let you guys choose ;)
