#I don't really plan anything there

[cheriafreya]

gathering my thoughts for my pulling plans here because I'm annoying 🌸

Honkai Star Rail: lost my 50/50 in Jiaoqiu's banner so next character is guaranteed. I wanted to wait this out until Aventurine's rerun at first, but I just can't miss the opportunity to get Robin now, so I'm getting Robin. Next is 2.6. We don't know 2.6's banners yet, but I think it'll be: [1st Phase - Rappa - Aventurine / 2nd Phase - Acheron - Ratio]. If that's the case, then I'll get E0S1 Aventurine no matter what, and if I have enough jades (which I doubt) then I'll get Ratio's LC. If not, then I'll save up for Sunday because I REALLY want Sunday, no matter what kit he has. He could be an absolute shit unit and I would still get him, same with Screwllum. I NEED them, and I'm hoping they are far from releasing now, so I can get both of them, even if only E0S0.

Genshin Impact: I'm like, one pull away from reaching soft pity. Almost got tempted to keep on pulling to get Mualani, but honestly? As much as I like the new characters, I don't think I actually want any of them...? I guess it's because I'm still a "newer" player, so getting the "older" characters first seems more appealing to me. I only have Navia and Scara after all, and Raiden Shogun is getting her rerun next phase. Like, wouldn't it be cool to get my first Archon right here, right now? I'm definitely getting Raiden Shogun. About the next banners, I don't really know what I want... probably Furina, or Alhaitham, or Ayato, I'm still thinking about it. I need to check this game's best teams / synergies to get my choice right.

Zenless Zone Zero: oh I know what I'm getting in this one, Jane Doe no doubt. She's SO cool and so beautiful, and she has such a fast and strong gameplay. I haven't pulled for literally anyone yet, so she'll be my first limited S-Rank character. The plan at first was to get Harumasa, who was supposed to appear next patch, but it looks like things changed a lot and he won't be having his banner in a looong time, which is nice because I can save up and get him. And I think that's really it for now? I really like Miyabi and Lighter (LEAKS - he apparently went from A-Rank to S-Rank), but they are not a priority, it'll depend on the amount of pulls I have by the time they appear.

do skully have pokemon?

Pumpkaboo is the obvious one, but y'know, sometimes the obvious one is the right one! (we'll say SUPER SIZE Pumpkaboo, just for fun. big pumpkin for big skeleton boy.) and another person actually also suggested Greavard, which I somehow hadn't considered, but feels so perfect that I feel like I should have. dangit.

(they can also have little Nightmare Suit costumes :D)

MY BLANKET OF DARKNESS HAS BEEN COMPLETED

✨👁️✨ I AM SO COZY NOW ✨👁️✨

So I started working on this blanket around June of 2022. Got like, maybe half-way through the blanket and then the yarn I needed for the blanket went out of stock at my local yarn shop. Now I didn't know the yarn would be completely unavailable for like 6 months (until the stop closed permanently), so I just kept on waiting, hoping for it to come back in stock-- but it never did, so in January I finally looked online if I could find the yarn elsewhere and I did, I got the yarn I needed, and finished the blanket. So it kinda took me 6 months to make this blanket but also not

What made this blanket a truly exciting and fun project for me is that this has been the first blanket I actually made for myself and designed for myself. Like I've enjoyed every single blanket project I've had so far, but having a blanket that's Just For Me is just. It's nice

I originally planned the granny squares out digitally because I wanted to have a fun pattern of different granny squares, something that wouldn't be too busy looking and was carefully planned, and here's what I came up with

I had two versions of the square pattern, one with moon phases right in the middle of it and another without them. I do like how the moon version looked and part of me kinda regrets not making that one, but I'm not sure the moons would have really gone well with the eyes... So I did go with the first version

(Sidenote, it's not on the pattern above but I added extra rows of just black squares at the top and bottom of the blanket, so there's two rows of black instead of just one)

(Sidenote 2, although I knew I wanted the blanket to be mostly black from the begining, I wasn't entirely sure what accent color I wanted to use, it really was depending on what colors the shop had available. Like I used yellow as kind of a default color since it worked nice with the stars and eyes, but I could've gone with some other color too. In the end, because I didn't like the color options for the yarn at the shop I ended up going with a yellow anyways) (Also I tested out a reverse color version with the pastel purple and white base and no eyes, just for funsies, it looks kinda neat)

But yeah, that's how the planning of the blanket went.

The blanket is made of 231 squares in total, 11x21 rows. 186 of the squares are plain black, the rest are patterned. The star squares were the worst to make because of how many strands of yarn I had to weave in, 0/10, would not reccommend.

I used the Cedro 100% wool yarn (reccomended hook size 5, 50g=100m), and it took me about 38 balls of yarn to finish the blanket (including crocheting all the squares together and doing a single round of double crochet around the blanket to finish it off)

This is literally all the yarn I have left from this blanket; one untouched ball of black and three partially used balls.

I gotta admit.

I'm kind of shocked by the size of the blanket. Like I very carefully measured it to make it the exact size to fit my bed, and it fits perfectly. But I'm still kinda shocked how big it is. (Which is why I didn't make the border of the blanket any bigger, even though I could've with the yarn I have)

Also

It's HEAVY

Like, of course it's heavy, it's 100% wool and thick, but MAN I didn't expect it lmao

But that kind of makes it perfect for cold winters especially, it's super warm and the weight makes it cozy- like who needs a weighted blanket when you can have one of these lmao

Now I just need to figure out how to protect the blanket from being covered in my white cat's hair...

Request: I'd like to see Blue Link in your style more :) no pressure ofc

I know you only said Blue Link, but I don't really draw the other colours (negating Vio) all that much, so I decided to just draw them all in fun outfits as fairywrens!

couple doodles from a bunch of magmas. mostly emmets. I don't think it's obvious but I quite like emmet

I feel spoiled by games like Hades that give us really good designs for the Greek gods and then I look at lore Olympus and it gives nothing. It’s so far removed from Greek culture.

fr we deserve to be spoiled at this point after all that, Hades 2 picked the perfect time to start rolling out early access because it means we can fully indulge in it without worrying about the LO boogeyman hiding in the closet LOL

I have never been more concerned for a JP update from your art than I am seeing a Cheka knowing the context of Leona’s dream.

My bois ok right?????? My sweet nephews ok right??????

well

uhhhh

I'm sure the real one is fine :)

[fearandhatred]

i was thinking about this line from my fic:

But the fall had hurt, too. Because the wind had cut into his useless wings like knives, his skin and grace peeling away under the friction, and he had been looking right up at the multicoloured and unreachable expanse of sky just to see it fade from his eyes into dull greys.

and i came up with this. i hope the vision came through

I am and always have been an Edelgard defender who believes she did basically nothing wrong, but her involvement with Kronya has always confused me a little tbh.

I feel like my relationship with my mom is ruined now and there's no getting it back and literally nothing happened other than me going on a sleep deprived rant on the internet to people who don't even know her
