6 questions;

I was tagged by @blossom-adventures to answer some fun questions 😁

1. Last Song? - On the Wing by Owl City. They’re one of my favorite bands; I’ve listened to them since I was very young. Even had a little CD player I used to listen to this album with. This song is absolutely gorgeous.

2. Last show? - I don’t watch much cable/network stuff. But if you’re really looking for something new My Name is Earl has always been a comfort show of mine. I watched it with my dad and sister and it’s really a fantastic show. Although be warned it got canceled on a cliffhanger, so there’s no satisfactory ending. I mostly watch YouTube though.

3. Currently watching? - Similar to previous question, right now I’m watching a YouTube series. Revisiting Needs Gaming play Ark: Survival Evolved because one of characters on the show, Thick44 (real name Tony Schnur), passed away recently. I watched them play Ark back in high school, so I wanted to revisit that series to pay respects to Tony. Their videos have brought me countless hours of entertainment. Me, my sister, and her fiancé all play Ark together too, so I always felt a deep connection to this series in particular.

Long live the Wyvern King.

4. Currently reading? - Exclusively fanfics 😂 The last one I read was Sweet Disaster by creative_frequency on AO3. Very sweet Ardyn story with some great smut thrown in. You should definitely check it out if you’re an Ardyn person. If you read part two, I suggest you pick the second outcome if you want the best ending 🥰

5. Current obsession? - Well, I’ve dedicated an entire blog to Ardyn soooo 😂😂 speaks for itself I think. Aside from that though, Final Fantasy in general has been an amazing community to join. I’ve only been a fan for about 2 years, I grew up a Nintendo kid and never had access to the consoles that had FF. Got into FFVII in 2020 and it was over. The amount of love and connection I feel to the characters constantly surprises me. And playing Dissidia has made me love the characters from games I haven’t played yet. I currently have all the pixel remasters, FFVII-IX on switch, X, XII, XIII, and XV on steam. I’m halfway through IX, with X being first in line for me to play next. I hope I can get to all of them 😁

6. Unrelated obsession? - I have quiet a few, although FF will always be my greatest love. Pokémon would probably be my second biggest obsession. One of my first ever games was Pokémon Pearl, and I’ve loved the games since. I’m like a walking encyclopedia for the damn pocket monsters 😂 I also played around in competitive VGC, so I’m a pretty good battler too.

This was fun! Thank you for the tag! I’ll poke @savage-rhi if they want to answer 🥰 I hope you and blossom are doing well ❤️

I was in pretty hard on Battlefield 3 and 4 back in the day and those old Battlefield Friends eps are just legendary--that, plus Doraleous and Associates. And then he was nearly as old as I am and actually good at these games, which put the lie to the excuse I always use of being way too old to be any good at playing any FPS. He will be missed.

Rest In Peace Thick44

I just heard that Tony Schnur (AKA Thick44) from Neebs Gaming has passed away recently.

From making music (like the BFF theme) to voicing characters like Sir Walken from Doraleous and Associates and Sniper from BattleField Friends, Thick44 was a great Youtuber and Neebs Gaming, and the internet, will be different without him.

Though sad to see him gone, at least he will be remembered for his great work and by his even greater friends, who made a video honoring Thick which has a link to a donation to help his grieving family: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9K_j2v0em0

RIP Tony Schnur. Keep making great content in the next world.

I finally get to share these now. These were posters I had made for Neebs Gaming for RTX 2019 and their PLGX event in Wilmington, NC. The effort was coordinated with me by Thick44(Tony Schnur) and Neebs(Brent Triplett). I couldn't be happier about the projects and especially the wonderful feedback from the community and showrunners themselves. Wonderful people, all of them. They've done so much good for my confidence in my art. I apologize for the watermarks. Neebs Gaming bought the rights to the posters and I have to honor that.
