Welp, I’ve set a deadline to have this batch of work pretty much finished by Friday. Will likely curl into a ball over the weekend, but it will make the lead-up to the real thing in the next week easier
Three days, then I get some breathing room again.
With luck (and coffee…), I may manage to condense it down to mostly two instead.
Few things quite like waking up to a flooded house.

(Somehow I suspect Viori got a bit creative here…)
Roughly 3 days until the intense month starts.
The chaotic month begins in a week (possibly less, TBD). The time to curl into a ball, in that case, is now.

Old piece that I still love...

Honestly might be one of the best concepts I had for an aquaphilia drawing. Top that off with elements of the game the characters are from that fit in well and you get this.
Reposting for visibility in the aquatic community: an excellent writer who is a friend of mine is looking for commissions.
So I was putting this post off, but my situation's not good. My food stamps have been canceled. Won't go into the details here, but...

tl;dr I need commissions. Urgently. If you can afford one, please consider it, or recommend me to someone who can. Or even just toss me some money for nothing tbh.
For the time being I curl into a ball to prepare
A precursor email to the two potentially chaotic weeks for work has arrived, though those weeks haven’t started JUST yet. Am unclear what exactly those weeks entail until the actual email arrived. Will be okay, even if my brain will be a bit of an omelet on the other side of it all.
“Why HM Moves Can’t Be Forgotten by Normal Means: A Cautionary Tale”
Probably a mix of the gray weather and my brain’s tendendy to *look* for something to worry about during a longer lull in the workload (in which I have plenty right there). Will be okay, but probably curling up into a ball for a little while (hopefully the coffee is a boost)

Dungeons and Bellezas: The GnB Dungeon Experience Part 1 - is FINALLY, AFTER SO LONG, OUT!!! GO READ IT ON AO3 TO GET CONTEXT FOR THE PICS!!! TRUST ME IT'S A GOOD READ!!! (It's also in the comments just for safe measure!)
Finally ending a LONG hiatus from original writing with the first part of an ongoing collaboration with @emiliathelurker.bsky.social

Does Belle (OC) have what it takes to navigate a submerged ruin? (Y’all better… SEA for yourselves…)

Busy part of the week is done, and last weekend was surprisingly tiring. The time has come to curl up into a ball.

With coffee
Almost entirely off the grid this weekend. But I shall return (hopefully with the first chapter of an upcoming story collab) before long.
Air is a mess today, maybe that’s why this headache is being persistent. Might need to curl up into a ball for a bit
As much as a classic as the ‘Aladdin scenario’ is, it does get a bit… oversaturated out there. (Just the fact that anyone into water stuff needs to only say ‘Aladdin’ for everyone to get the reference 😅)
The productivity of the week is done. Might spend the better part of tomorrow curled up into a ball, but rest approaches.
Got a fair bit of important stuff done this morning, at least. Brain hasn’t wanted to brain as much today. Maybe tonight there won’t be as much noise, because sleep is important ._.
The tricky thing is that the games with more underwater content sometimes have air refill mechanics. If survival horror works, perhaps Subnautica? Only breathing when you’re in an area with breathable air
Some great work, as always! (And some very close attention to detail in the shading, from the look of it)
Past two days have been a nice (and much needed) win over impostor syndrome. Hopefully this streak keeps up.
That meme of Squidward holding up some paper, looking exhausted.

That’s me right about now.

But… freedom. 🔥🔥
One more day of this. Then freedom (or at least a fair bit of it for awhile)
