Actually, some sort of tall, two-horned creature is following you.

“I hope it stays away from the cookie jar...”

~ Mei.

Coming back to this art style after so long feels like a regression; not because I dislike it, but because it's basically the starting point of my arting journey. It's possible that I'll stay in this style for a while, until I can find a better way to evolve. Even then, thanks to all of you for following my little blog!!

I'll start to place some alternative texts on my answered asks! Maybe this will make some things less confusing.

☕ + privateers (eden + 1 other muse)

Last one!! Tysm for send them all!! I had a blast going through them! Eden and the wheel says Mahsuri! finally divider: @/mikeykuns

Suri shuffles her cards, pressing the two piles together to mix them. She raises the deck and uses her free hand to swipe a spec off her purple table cloth.

"They are arrogant." She grumbles, leaning over the table to emphasize her point. She glances from side to side, as if to make sure no one was around to hear. It must be a habit, there's no one else in the room. "I heard a few of them come up here. Pretend to be pirates." She speaks in a hushed tone. Eden's brow furrows, eyes widening in disbelief.

"No." She turns away, giving Suri the side eye.

"Yes!" Suri exclaims, arms out in front of her. "They wear your clothes and eat your food!" She drops her knuckles on the table to punctuate. Eden is sure she'd recognize them. But, then again, she saw that pirate with the mullet/goatee combo twice and never again. Never heard anything about him dying. He could've been one of them. Suri shakes her head while chuckling, knocking twice on the cards before dropping them into three piles between them. "Pile them up." She leans back in her chair, still grinning. Eden nods as she reaches for the leftmost one, dropping it onto the rightmost with the middle on the bottom.

She knows the drill at this point. She was reluctant to participate in the first reading, thinking Mahsuri might be connecting to the devil, but, as Suri explains it, 'Everyone has someone looking after them. I just ask mine to ask yours what they want you to know.' The first one was so accurate, she kept coming back for more. It helps that the company is nice. Suri never lets silence hang, she appreciates that. Eden places the new pile in the center of the table.

"I don't see them often, but they're always so rude when I do. I asked one to help me move boxes once, he thought I was asking for a cigarette and told me to get back to work." She frowns at the memory, unable to remember how the interaction ended. Suri laughs loudly, slapping her hand onto the cards to pick them up. She pauses her laughter to blow on the cards, flipping them onto the table one at a time with practiced ease.

"Okay," She starts, trying to tamp down her giggles. "You've got good energy here. A lot of forward momentum." She adjusts the cards delicately, making small movements to line them up perfectly. The action helps her focus. "It looks like your friend might fall into some trouble." She rests her thumb on card with a sword-wielding knight on it, pointer and middle landing on another with three swords slicing through a heart.

"When is Hayes not in trouble." Eden shrugs, grinning when the comment makes Suri giggle again.

"He does it to himself." Eden nods. He does. Suri clears her throat, getting back to the reading. "There's a choice here." She gestures in a swirling motion over a card with six cups, each holding their own luxury. Her attention turns to a queen, one with a sword in her hand. Suri raises another card, one with two swords crossed over one another and places it horizontally over the queen. "There's a dark haired woman in your life. She is...Difficult for you. Don't let this distract you." Suri doesn't look up, gaze bouncing between the cards. She picks up another face card before Eden can decipher what the last message may mean. "Another woman is here. She is very kind. Soft. Like a baby bird." This card lays over one with someone crying in bed, nine swords hung over them. "She is going to change what you know, let this happen. God wills it."

Suri changes her terms to make more sense to Eden. Where she would normally say, your guides, ancestors or spirits, she says God. It builds a bridge in their communication, allowing for the two to get closer.

"You don't have a lot of you here, Eddie. This doesn't look like a time for you. I know you're used to it, but it cannot last forever. You'll grow out of it eventually." Suri reaches over the table to grab Eden's hands, a physical connection to better feel the energy within her. Eden flinches at first, but places her trust in the Seer. The pirate vibrates with nervous energy, both from the contact and prediction. She doesn't know what Suri means by grow out of it. Eden doesn't focus on herself. That's a simple fact of her life. Suri sighs, feeling the others unease. "Do not let what I've told you change your mind. You will walk down the path you are meant to, you will become the person you need to be." She gives a gentle squeeze before backing off. Her hands return to the table. "There isn't much else. Something here about an unexpected visitor, but no details."

Eden nods along. She tries to take in the information objectively, but it's going to take a lot of late-night thinking to decipher how it all makes her feel. Oh well, she can use the extra time to help Hayes with whatever he fucked up this time.

Terra: Paca if you trust *making sure they aren't overheard by accident* "her" then I and hopefully others will give her trust too. I have no problem with her trying to playfully scare.

“Thank you for being so understanding, though! I wish they would try to take a different view of this trouble, too...”

~ Little Paca.

Something invisible is sitting on the bed behind you, Mei.

“Suri isn't bad, I'm sure of it. She just likes to scare others sometimes...”

~ Little Paca.

Some characters have stars in their eyes, and it's not just an aesthetic choice- It's something I'm planning for the future!

Even though I don't share much about it, my Valley of Echoes AU grows a little bit more everyday! I have a lot of characters that I want to give an official design to for the story (or at least try) and of course I couldn't forget one of my favorite gals; Suri! Alpaca's echo appeared a couple times before when this blog was still a draft, and only now I'm getting to draw her a proper reference of my own!

This little troublemaker takes a very important role in the story AND on Little Paca's development, so I obviously COULDN'T leave her out. I'll make a small biography for her later on, and then I'm sure y'all will understand why I appreciate this gremlin so much!!

I'm guessing it's embarrassing for you to be talking to Hunger while there's other ponies around and you're the only one who can see her, which makes ponies think that you're going crazy?

“Everyone here in Ponnyile thinks my family is weird, so that doesn't really make a huge difference to my crazy record in the end- anyway, who let the windows open again??”

~ Mei.

When an echo grows too strong, it ceases to be just a repetition and becomes a new voice.
