If you are looking for the shyest and most earnest sword lesbian ever, I give you Aili Fallon :)

And if you want to see her in action, the first chapters of The Seaglass Blade are now available on my website!

thanks to @rebiesque.bsky.social for the art! 🏳️‍🌈📚

Character art of Aili Fallon (The Seaglass Blade): a white woman with short blonde hair, wearing blue and black cultivation robes, holding a sword angled across her shoulders in a martial arts pose.

Hi, it’s me, the big baby who had to hide in the movie theatre bathroom for twenty minutes during the last Alien movie, I guarantee this will be the funniest day of your life and arguably one of the worst days of mine. Tell a friend about OTHERSIDE! Tell two friends, if you really hate me.

OTHERSIDE - Kickstarter is LIVE! @othersidespec.bsky.social · 18h

As a thank you for smashing SO many stretch goals, if we get to 300 backers @mruthrobinson.bsky.social will play Alien: Isolation on stream while Ash and Val tag along and laugh.

Think of it as our silly final backer goal as a treat—for you, not for MR.

www.kickstarter.com/projects/hyb...

Info for our Backer Goals! 50, 100, 150, 200, AND 250 Backers are unlocked! All backer goals are in rainbow with an open lock over a blurred version of OTHERSIDE banner art in purple, with a blurred floating fantastical head on the right. Now at the bottom there is a FINAL GOAL: 300 backers - MR plays Alien: Isolation. Instead of a lock there is a face hugger from the Alien franchise.

It takes a lot to set up a kickstarter and I spent all day today working on rewards and shipping estimates but look! I have a new banner!

Ten minutes collapsed on couch before picking up kid now 🎉
