I may not have Fashion Dreamer in my paws yet, but I promise you. I will make a muse of him.

That is a promise I intend to keep!

The only up side to have memory problems is that I can see all the spoilers for any movie, game or book and not have a fucking thing spoiled.

🍰As someone who deals with nightmares and hallucinations (that I'm now on medication for) These are all great tips! Getting something like a weighted plushie or weighted blanket helps me a lot too. (I have a weighted dinosaur plushie and a weighted blanket)

🍫I would recommend being careful with eating chocolate before bed as it has been known to affect dreams.

What helps me as an age regressor who has nightmares:

I set my stuffies up all around me, so they can guard me while I sleep (stuffies are the best protectors)

I use multiple nightlights, so there's no dark corners

I'm a cold sleeper so I sleep with multiple blankets, and when I'm completely covered up no one can get me

If you're a hot sleeper, I wake up in cold sweat sometimes, I'll sleep with just my feet covered, and it still makes me feel safer

I recommend bed tents, you can put fairy lights inside and be completely protected without having to use blankets

I make a nest to sleep in

Sometimes when the nightmares are really bad I'll sep up alarms during the night, works best if you're a light sleeper (which I am not)

Regressing before bed helps me, but often it's hard when I'm already scared to go to sleep

Watch your favorite show, or little show to help you regress and fall asleep (I leave on cartoons sometimes all night)

Pick a new stuffie every night to sleep with, or have a dedicated stuffie you sleep with every night, and imagine them as your protector in your dreams, at the very least it helps me fall asleep not scared

I use a comfort item, this could also be a stuffie, but I use a paci

For sometimes padded regressors, make sure you go potty before bed, don't learn the hard way like I did

Your favorite, non-caffeinated drink, warm milk, or in my case I drink chocolate milk (If I was a caregiver I would say no sugary drinks either, but I am an regressor with no caregiver so I will drink apple juice before bed if I want to lol)

Feel free to add please

Okay that last post got…a LOT more engagement than I thought it would?? 🥰😅😅

Thank you everyone who reblogged and commented (sorry for the nightmares)!! I usually have a hard time remembering how far I’ve come art wise. Seeing people liking my work gives me the confidence I need to keep at it!

I also think it’s hilarious how my name and account aesthetic is cute, calm, purple and pinks, and then there’s nightmare fuel Bendy sh1t that I’ll definitely draw more of loooolll. I think that says a lot about me.

OH WE ARE SO BACK!!!

(My thoughts on the new "Aikatsu Academy" Teaser Trailers and the future of Aikatsu)

First of all, YIPPEE!!!! THIS LOOKS AMAZING!!!

Just some quick thoughts on Planet before diving into Academy. Aikatsu Planet, while a great experiment did not keep me interested or invested. And no, it wasn't the fact it had live action acting a la the Girls x Heroine series. They had stripped what made the original Aikatsu so special, which was the focus of different types of idols journeying together. Idol Activities, the whole namesake of the series. In turn, they were trying so hard to beat and become their competition in the idol anime sphere, Pripara. They focused too hard on the "virtual idol secret", making it too difficult for themselves in trying to juggle the new Dressia system lore on top of Mao's idol journey.

Now this new Aikatsu series seems to be taking us back to our roots, idols going to school and training to become the top. They brought back the old idol types as seen from one scene in the trailer, the girls' idol school life, and the most interesting thing I've seen yet, no sign of the aikatsu card system. There was a scene where the girls were on a stage in, what I assume is their school dress coords, with cardboard sunflowers. If Aikatsu is a linear time-line, this is the start. On top of that we see the girls are setting up to be streamers in one scene, a great way to tie modern day virtual idol content rather making a magical vtuber excuse.

Now the girls themselves. Oh my gosh, this Bun is hopping up and down. While we do get an Aikatsu with our typical main Pink Cute type lead, we have a Gothic cool type and Pop Type as part of the main cast. It really takes me back to the Akari Gen set up in the original Aikatsu. Season 3 and 4 were some of my favorite seasons of the whole franchise. I don't know what's to come, but I am very hopeful.

There doesn't seem to be an Aikatsu arcade or app game on the horizon, I might be wrong and they could go 180 and surprise me. But as far as I'm concerned, this series seems to be targeting the people who grew up with Aikatsu. After all, Aikatsu is a decade old franchise as of writing this post. People really loved the Aikatsu 10th anniversary movie, so to me, I think Bandai Namco are listening to what their aikatsu consumers are wanting out of this franchise.

All in all, I have very high expectations on this new series. I'm ready to see what Aikatsu Acadmy has in store. 🩷♦️♣️🐇
