I made a cryptid coffeehouse oc!

They go by Nef and use They/he pronouns! Nef is a changeling. They're super into kickboxing/martial arts and love to change up their look from time to time. He's currently a makeup artist. He can make anyone look/feel like a completely different person with just a few cosmetics! They like to post short videos teaching people how to do different makeup looks. He didn't have anyone to teach him about makeup when he was young and is self taught so they know exactly what not to do lol.

I thought they would get along really well with mordag for no good reason I just think mordag is adorable. They would 100% throw kurou over their shoulder when he's being annoying or something lol

Here's a lil pic of Nef with Kurou and Mordag. I thought it would be cute as a poloroid since kurou likes to hang up pictures of his friends in his room.

I thought it would be fitting for the mc to be a creature that's known to be able to change its shape to look like anyone. The way they look here is based off how changelings look in d&d. Might make a character sheet for them later.

Mordag and Kurou are owned by @nyewclear

Play their visual novel its literally so good!

Hello, I’m the anon who said I was disappointed and I’m here to apologize. When writing that comment I was going through a mental episode which (due to unrelated and personal issues) isn’t an excuse but definitely aided in the way I wrote that comment. I realize that it sounded very rude which was not my intention and makes me disappointed in myself. I was really sad to see one of my favorite enstars creators support the boycott because from the research I’ve done, by observing the reactions from both Japanese and Ryukyuan Enstars fans, they don’t seem to be very happy with the racial part of the boycott. Some are definitely still not happy that Akatsuki went from 3 to 4 but it has nothing to due with race for them. The reason I said the boycott itself seemed racist is because I’m seeing a lot of boycott supporters saying that BECAUSE of Ibuki’s Ryukyuan heritage he shouldn’t be in any unit at all and should remain by himself which makes me sad because he deserves a loving and supportive unit which Akatsuki definitely is. Again I’m very sorry for the way my previous comment came off and I still appreciate your work. I just hope that this informed you on the perspective of actual Japanese and Ryukyuan people.

Sweet thing! It's okay! Don't beat yourself up. I hope I didn't come off as aggressive, I can be emotional in the face of criticism but try my best to leave it out of my responses. I was explaining my motives!

He DOES deserve to be in a unit that will give him love. I felt a bit sad seeing him be neglected during the Esupuri debut, and I was personally hoping for him to be able to shine as a solo idol because that'd mean he would get to collab with all sorts of units like Madara does, and it felt like he was being set up to seek freedom and parallel him in some sort of way given his rejection of his role as a kid, but I would have also loved for him to belatedly join the rest of the new face idols in Esupuri, because I think his dynamic with Esu could have been interesting ♪ I even pondered the delusional combination of Ibuki and Kaname, though that would never happen, just because it's interesting to imagine.

I've definitely seen the people you're talking about, and also those who focus more on the AKATSUKI dilemma than Happy Element's mishandling of Ibuki. I only mentioned it because I think both are valid to be upset about and thought that maybe you didn't see anything wrong with the story at all. But one issue is so much larger than the other, especially when it's being done in a game with as big of an audience as Ansta, and I feel sad seeing people misdirect their hatred towards Ibuki — not just because he is a child and the victim here regardless of Keito's kindness (the traditional, Yamato Japanese character who is here to guide the proud, "indigenous demon" character down the right path. Do you see how that sounds? It's one thing for Keito to be his senior, drawn to him because of his experience with Kurou... ah, I don't know...), but because he is not real. The people who love him and feel connected to him are, though.

The "because" factor is less that because of his ethnicity he doesn't deserve to be in a unit, and more so that they are really doubtful that the writers will be able to pull it off inoffensively or that they already find it offensive due to the implications. At least, that's most of what I've seen. And again, the execution was just very poor. Ibuki and Esu are my favourite of the new kids, as I've mentioned. When it was revealed, I felt a sense of dread that still doesn't fade days after, cementing itself in my stomach as I watched the stream featuring the seiyuu via a third party. The way they're going for it is already rather reflective of history and not in a necessarily good way. I want to have hope that they will find a way to make this better, but I don't deserve to tell AKATSUKI-p to have that same faith, nor do I expect them to. It's sad that Happy Elements' official account is blocking people with genuine criticism, and very immature of them.

Anyway, I hope you'll feel better soon, Anon! And know that I, and many others, really do mean well. I've only seen two or so tweets in Japanese addressing the racism angle, honestly... even that much I was happy to see. Not that I think they're stupid or unaware. But there's a lot of work put into brushing Ryukyuan struggles under the rug.

When I learn how to draw backgrounds, it's over for all of you.

Hey guys! I know it's been quite a while since I've posted anything actual headcannons or fic wise. Theres a reason for that! I've unfortunately not been quite as fixated on The Arcana for a long while (which I hope hasn't been completely obvious in my writing. But I know it has been from my absence.) I have however, fallen in love with some other fandoms! These are ones I may or may not end up rambling/writing for. I'll list those here :

Undertale (though it never really left lol)

Pressure

Hades (I and II)

Cryptid Coffeehouse (if you haven't played this you should, oh my gods its so beautiful! I'll link it here but also check out the Kurou Connect demo by nukes as well!)

Gravity Falls (no comment!)

I'm still very busy right now, with classes starting back up, work, and extracurriculars. I do hope that on some of my days off I might be able to work on writing more as I miss it very deeply. It'll be slow but I really enjoy it so fingers crossed I get something out soon.

I'll try to finish whatever asks are in my drafts right now. I'll still answer asks and requests about The Arcana! I'm not completely abandoning it so don't worry about that. I feel that I just need some variety so I don't keep disappearing for 6 months at a time. You guys should absolutely feel free to ask me about the games listed above as well! Either to just ramble or actual asks related to them.

genuinely thought I posted this over a week ago, I also have drafts ready to post rn lol 😬

[nyewclear]

GAKUEN K -WONDERFUL SCHOOL DAYS-

Fushimi Saruhiko route

Event 12

Translation below the cut

Konohana Saya: (If I'm not wrong, today's gym class is swimming)

???: "Yo, mornin'."

Konohana Saya: "M-Morning..."

Konohana Saya: (...? Who is the person just now?)

Konohana Saya: (I've just returned the greetings without thinking much, but maybe I'm mistaking him for someone else)

*In class*

Yatogami Kurou: "........"

Konohana Saya: "I can't believe it's Kamamoto-kun."

Yatogami Kurou: "Yeah, you're right. I don't get it at all."

Kamamoto Rikio: "Even though you guys said that... it's just how my body works."

Konohana Saya: "I feel like it's not something that can be done by just saying it's how your body works..."

Yata Misaki: "Anyway, I said that he is Kamamoto."

Isana Yashiro: "Both of you are a transfer students so you guys aren't here last year. I'm shocked too when I saw it at the first time."

Yatogami Kurou: "Well... if you guys say so, then we have to believe it."

Konohana Saya: "Y-Yeah... you're right."

*At the school's swimming pool*

Konohana Saya: (If I smell this chlorine's scent, it feels like summer has come)

P.E. teacher: "Everyone gather!"

P.E. teacher: "Since the lesson of swimming is starting, I want to confirm how many of you all that can swim."

P.E. teacher: "Make a team, and measure the time of each other then report it to me."

Yata Misaki: "Kamamoto, let's team up."

Kamamoto Rikio: "Oh, alright."

Yata Misaki: "We have to become number one in the class!"

Kamamoto Rikio: "Yata-san, this is not a lesson about competition."

Yata Misaki: "Ouch."

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Oh, you're here. I don't see you there."

Yata Misaki: "Saru... you just bumped into me on purpose, right?"

Fushimi Saruhiko: "I didn't do it on purpose. I just don't really see you at all. Sorry, Misakii~"

Yata Misaki: "What's with that your way of talking, it's like you're telling me that you didn't see me because I'm small."

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Ha! I don't say that. If you think like that, does that means you're self-aware that you're small?"

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Right? Mi-sa-kii~?"

Yata Misaki: "Just how many times that I told you to not call me by my name!!"

Yata Misaki: "If it becomes like this, let's compete with swimming!"

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Hmph, that's interesting."

Yata Misaki: "Fortunately it's a team up. Let's match with who can finish a swim at 50 meter first with one person swim at 25 meter."

Yata Misaki: "If I win, don't call me by my name again."

Fushimi Saruhiko: "....Alright. If I win, I will call you by any names as I like."

Konohana Saya: (Fushimi-kun is fighting with Yata-kun again)

Konohana Saya: (Whenever Fushimi-kun is fighting with Yata-kun, it feels like he has a high tension)

Konohana Saya: (...Eh, this is not the time to think about that!)

Konohana Saya: (Kukuri-chan is absent today, and Neko-chan is forgetting her swimwear so she just sitting out)

Konohana Saya: (Everyone is already has a person to team up with. What should I do...)

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Oi."

Konohana Saya: "Eh?"

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Your face, it looks like you don't have any person to team up with, right? I will have a match with him, so come with me."

Yata Misaki: "O-Oi, you don't have to bring a girl, do you?"

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Ah, right. If I'm not wrong, you're weak against woman, aren't you?"

Yata Misaki: "I-I'm not weak against them! I will defeat them!"

Konohana Saya: "Are you okay with me even though you want to have a match with Yata-kun and the others?"

Fushimi Saruhiko: "It's because there's no other person to team up with."

Konohana Saya: (So you mean, you don't have other choice huh...)

Konohana Saya: (But maybe this is a good chance to thank Fushimi-kun since he's always helped me)

Konohana Saya: "I understand. I'll swim with all my power!"

Konohana Saya: (My opponent is Kamamoto-kun. I want to take a lead as much as possible, and connect it to Fushimi-kun)

P.E. teacher: "Take your position. Ready, go."

Konohana Saya: (Kamamoto-kun, he's fast)

Konohana Saya: (But, I'm almost... catch him...!)

Kamamoto Rikio: "Whew!"

Konohana Saya: "Phew! Fushimi-kun!"

Konohana Saya: (Fushimi-kun is fast! Even though I'm arrived later than Kamamoto-kun, but he's taking the lead)

Konohana Saya: (Ah! He's got overtaken! It's little by little, but it's very clear that Yata-kun is taking the lead!)

Kamamoto Rikio: "Yata-san! Fight! Don't lose with that monkey!"

Konohana Saya: (Yata-kun is fast too...! The difference is covered!)

Konohana Saya: (I hope Fushimi-kun win!)

Kamamoto Rikio: "Do your best, do your best Yata-san! Go, go, Yata-san!"

Yata Misaki: "Haah... Haah..."

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Haha, I win."

Yata Misaki: "...Damn it! I was so close."

Fushimi Saruhiko: "From now on, I will call your name freely as I like, Misakii~"

Yata Misaki: "I will win next time. Just wait for it! Let's go Kamamoto."

Kamamoto Rikio: "Ah, please wait a minute Yata-san!"

Konohana Saya: "Fushimi-kun, good work. It's great that you won!"

Fushimi Saruhiko: "Yeah. You're pretty fast too. You are not give in even if your opponent is man."

Konohana Saya: "Is-Is that so? If you're saying that, then there's a result of me doing my best."

Konohana Saya: (I'm being... complimented by Fushimi-kun, right?)

Konohana Saya: (I'm happy if I can give you a little of my thanks)

Fushimi Saruhiko: "...? What's wrong with you? It's unpleasant when you're grinning like that."

Konohana Saya: "Ah, sorry. It's nothing."

P.E. teacher: "Hey, you two aren't measuring the time, are you? Submit the report later, okay?"

Konohana Saya: "Ah, yes! We're sorry!"

Konohana Saya: "Come to think of it, when we're having a match, we didn't measure the time, huh. Let's get in the line once again!"
