Today's prompt is "Pokemon Fusion" So here's an idea I've had in my brain for a long long time~

As far as I can tell, not many people, if any, have tried to combine Murkrow and Pidgey, and this little lady looks more like her mom than her dad~ I like to think that she, and other "Murky" or "Pidgekrow", hatch with pidgey traits, but over time, not through evolution, they gain red feathers like Pidgeotto have, THEN by evolution with a Dusk Stone do they become Hunchkrow/Pidgeot

I made one too~!!

Her name is Heart~ =w=

Made an oc maker challenge for rw community! Inspired by @shimmeringembers & @thenalanita-art ♡

Have fun!

Some quick references I made of my WoL oc Aleia in preparation for Art Fight!

I'm planning to take a bit of a step back in my activity on it compared to how much I did last year - Since I have more conventions coming up in the autumn that I need to make sure I work on prepping for as well, as well as... Dawntrail coming out orz

How did you first reach out/connect with Athena for your practice? I really want to work with and learn from her, but I’m so incredibly afraid of doing something wrong

For me, I kind of feel like Athena has always been around in some way or another (but that’s for a different post), but I want you to know that it’s okay to start whenever, she will meet you where you are. I’ll share my experience in this and I really hope it helps.

During the pandemic, I mean the *early* months of them, I was really lost in my life in general. I was completely directionless. I'd switched university tracks to attend literally two months of art school before campus closed. I was in mostly studio and design classes so this basically meant everything I'd started wouldn't ever be finished.

I can't describe to you the feeling of hopelessness. I'd stepped out of a promising internship and a chance at law school to follow my dreams. This was probably the riskiest decision I've ever made and it definitely felt like it was not paying off at all. I'd hoped to see some sign that the change would be worth it and this as an answer was a blow I didn't know how to recover from.

I didn't know what to do. It was in this chaos that I connected with her for the first time as a conscious worshipper. I'd woven things for her before, had a collection of prized owls on a shelf for her, but this was when I really reached out for help. I guess you could say I was building kharis with her for a bit beforehand, but that was by no means something you have to spend a ton of time doing before reaching out. You build it along the way.

We don't really have widespread access to temples and sanctuaries anymore, and shrines are usually things we've made ourselves. Something I've been doing in my practice is going to places that fall under their domain. So for Apollon, the art studio was a place I would meditate and pray, offering my work at the end of a session or my paint water. For Athena, it was the university library (any place you feel close to her works though, this could be your room or a museum, this was just what worked for me at the time). I just went as I was in that moment. Lost, confused, needing aid. I sat there for a while and told her everything. I wasn't perfect, I haven't been perfect, but that's kind of the point. I worked at it over time, reading her myths, making offerings, a prayer journal, just telling her about my day. I thank her for all the ways she's shown up for me, all the ways I can see her in my everyday life, and that's been the way to go for me. I keep a notebook in my bag where I write notes to her when things get tough, wear devotional jewelry, and dedicate my achievements to her.

She has these really lovely epithets, Ergane, the instructor of man, or Aleia, the provider of refuge, Amboulia, of good counsel, Soteira, the savior. She's familiar with every struggle and insecurity you could have. These gods are older than we can possibly comprehend. Yes - there are guidelines for how you should behave, but the things that can make the gods genuinely upset are few and severe. Hubris for one, and defiling a temple, or killing a relative, like those are things that the average person will never really encounter. Make the mistakes, as long as you are respectful and approach the gods with good intentions, you’re okay. There are a million right ways to worship, and only very few that are historically attested as Wrong.

You Taught Me Secret Language I Can’t Speak With Anyone Else

Love is great, it really does. But have you known Raihan?

Genap delapan tahun lamanya sudah hidupku dipenuhi oleh kehadiran Raihan setiap harinya. Aku bertemu dengannya pertama kali pada bangku SD, dan memulai untuk menjalani pertemanan anak kecil yang konyol hingga kini beranjak dewasa bersama.

——————————

Raihan Daniel Risjad.

begitu nama yang tertulis pada sebelah kanan seragam putih miliknya. Seorang siswa banyak bicara yang sibuk berkompromi mencari alasan untuk duduk di sebelahku pada hari pertama semester baru.

“biar kelihatan papan tulis jadi duduk di depan” katanya. “jangan galak-galak dong, Aleia”

“shut jangan bawel, aku mau fokus baca”

“eh, aku kayak kenal kamu?”

“huh?”

“IH IYA BENER! I saw you at Dr. Books hari sabtu kemarinn!!” “I was the one who took the last piece of ‘A Dash of Magic’! the second series of Bliss Bakery Trilogy!” “KAMU CEWE GALAK ITU KAN, LEIA?!!” “KAMU GAK INGET AKU?!!!!”

“???? wait” “HAAAAHH ITU KAMU RAI?”

And that’s how their friendship starts going

——————————

And it keeps growing, till now,

“Gue mau jagain lo, Ya” “Gak usah, Ya, sama gue aja” “Lo diem aja, gue yang cari” “Gue jemput” “You better stay there or”

“or what?”

“or i’ll call Mama Ita!!!!!”

——————————

Raihan, dengan segala tingkah konyol-nya, dengan segala otak pintar-nya, dengan segala ucapan hangat-nya di setiap masa burukku, dengan kedua tangan indah-nya yang seringkali kupoles cantik dengan nail art, dengan pelukan nyaman-nya di masa dingin kehidupanku, dengan hati lembut-nya atas setiap hal baik yang ia lakukan untukku. Raihan, teman yang rasanya tidak pantas hanya kusebut teman biasa.

He’s just that one miracle fantastic thing, that came into my life safe and sound, without creating any disturbs.

And isn’t that just so pretty to think All along there was some Invisible String Tying You to Me?

One thing I know for sure, having him in my life is the greatest blessing for me, until I realized, maybe I’ve fallen for him.

Now I’m too reluctant to take any other steps. It’s such a stifling, convoluted, intricate, strangulate, suffocation thing. Left me no choice, either fallen for him deeper or it will ruin us all apart.

——————————

Forever and Always, xx — Iya : )

A lot’s happened since my last post but I’m just going to leave these pics here for now :)

4/12/23

Today you are 6 years old! You’re in kindergarten at Bowie Elementary. You have some behavioral issues but nothing out of the ordinary for a child your age. You’re smart but it’s hard for you to stay focused. NBD, really. You’re beautiful and TALL as ever! I have no doubt you’ll be much taller than me by the time you’re like 12. You love Gabby’s Dollhouse, Jack Hartmann, ForeverNenaa, and CoryXKenshin. You’re a little more advanced than I’d like in the way that you’re absolutely absorbed by YT and gaming. You love Roblox but I’m super glad you can’t read well or spell well yet so you don’t really talk to anyone crazy on the internet just yet lol but I’m keeping an eye on it, believe me. You love playing games on your tablet that are like animal crossing or dress up. You like to eat pizza and pasta and pickles and burgers and fries. You love soda but I try not to let you have too much. You’ve developed a little attitude, as most girls do, but it’s nothing crazy. I think you’re mature for your age tbh. You’re ahead in ways that other’s wouldn’t even consider ahead probably but I think you’re doing just fine. I’m amazed by you everyday. I love watching and listening to you read and do math even though I know it probably doesn’t seem that way. I hope in the future you can understand where my frustration came from when we did homework. Lol, the issue is that I KNOW you KNOW the material. You just seem to be very distracted or in a hurry to get the work done. But I know you are intelligent. You love ART too so I think maybe you’re art minded. You’re incredibly artistic, especially on your tablet. We live with grandma and papa again and you love it, of course. Sometimes you miss your daddy bc he lives at Nana’s right now, but he always comes to visit us! Literally like every weekend lol. I love you so much, Leilei. And I hope when you get to read all these things that that is what comes through to you the most. That I love you so very much and that I’m so proud of you. I hope you never feel the opposite and I’ll always do my best to make sure you don’t, but in adolescence it’s hard to feel these things. I’m getting ahead of myself here though lol. I love you forever, Aleia ❤️ always, always.

In artists' miniature scenes, snails enjoy the night of their lives The miniature scenes crafted by artists Aleia Murawski and Sam Copeland may be fake, but their inhabitants – tiny snails – are very much real. Murawski and Copeland originally rose to fame with more domestic settings for their slimy friends, but the scope of their art has expanded significantly, giving the snails new, neon-lit stomping grounds – or is it more crawling grounds? — Read the rest https://boingboing.net/2023/01/20/in-artists-miniature-scenes-snails-enjoy-the-night-of-their-lives.html

Today's prompt is "Baby Evolution for a Legendary" So have more babies~!

These little cuties are the previous Latias' babies~ The pink one is shiny, and, if you notice the eggs, one is a girl. That would be the one sleeping on her back ...And her brother's back XD

I'd like to call them "Laties" As in "La-tee-is" They'll start out purple and you wouldn't be able to tell just by looking at them if they're male or female, but their gender will determine whether they become Latios or Latias. They're able to fly after a few days, but they aren't very fast like their parents yet

Incoming show off of my babies and my art but that’s not the important part:

Brownie is my shiny baby boi, and that lovely baby girl with a bandana is Cinnamon~ Also Candy the Slowpoke -w-

They are my babies and I love them, and if anything happened to them, I’d murder everyone, and then jump into a volcano
