I've spent the last few days frantically writing up a modern AU for one of my d&d parties and the design doc has now reached over 3.5k words

I just like imagining our little guys getting to be silly young adults without the weight of the world on their shoulders 🥹
A screenshot of Ellipsus a word processing software. The document has 3594 words total. The body of the text reads: "Karaoke!! AU Overview. A low-magic modern fantasy university AU featuring The Auburn Sinners and their friends. 'Low-Magic Modern Fantasy", a modern setting where characters retain their original lineages but magic is minimal and the setting is otherwise modern, including fashions, food, and popular culture."

Almost as soon as I posted the original I decided to see what it would look like without the extra details and I think I like it better 🤦🏻‍♀️
The same comic as in the quoted post, but without any writing except for the speech bubble in the first panel.

A Tender Goodbye

🎶 And I'm a goddamn coward // but then again so are you 🎶 The Lion's Roar, First Aid Kit
A 7 panel comic between Mwfanwy/Mae, a half-elf bard, and Seaward, a half-elf pirate fighter. Seaward has blonde hair and green eyes and wear a white shirt, dark brown trousers, and a compass around his neck. Mae has dark Auburn hair and blue eyes and freckles, and wear a green sleeveless pirate coat with a blue scarf sash and striped brown shorts. The comic is set in the crows nest, where Mae is saying goodbye to Seaward before she leaves the ship. In the first panel, Seaward says "Stay safe girlie" as she prepares to leave; her seagull familiar watches her go. Three consecutive smaller panels show Mae's crisis: 1) she clenches her fist on the bannister, 2) she exhales, pondering, and 3) she turns around. In panel 6, Mae has turned back to Seaward and kisses him. In the last panel, Seaward stands at the top of the crows nest, confused, while the seagull squawks. Mae has jumped down onto the ladder, making a swift exit.

I've almost finished Legends ZA! As it's the first game I've played as my OC, I think she deserved a little doodle
A digital illustration of Felicity "Flick" Eden-Hughes, a Pokémon Trainer OC. Flick stands with on hand on her hip and the other holding a pokeball with her legs crossed in front of one another. She has fair skin and freckles, blue eyes, and short orange/red hair with bangs and a dark green headband. Flick wears a cropped red sweater vest over a white blouse and a dark green checked skirt with knee high cream socks and black and red sneakers. She has three more pokeballs on her belt, black sports gloves, and a black choker with a pink heart charm. Flick looks to the right at her partner Pokémon, Fletchling, who hovers in the air beside her. The background is a muted teal green. In the top left corner is a text box reading: Felicity "Flick" Eden-Hughes. Region: Galar. Partner: Fletchling. Type(s): Fire, Flying. Badges: (there are four icon depicting the Grass, Water, Fire, and Fighting Galar League badges)

Three days of promoting LARP at MCM Birmingham. Three different looks. One tired Aspyn.

Many thanks to @heftyyeti.bsky.social for organising another fab weekend and being an amazing human, and to @kingmerryweather.bsky.social for all the driving, emotional support, and generally being awesome
Aspyn dressed as 5am Pearl from the Life series in a red velvet Capelet and red moth antennae. They have a fake scar drawn over her right eye. Aspyn dressed as her LARP character Safira in a white blouse and purple doublet with deer antlers. She holds a coffee cup in one hand. They have a fake scar drawn over their nose and right cheek. Aspyn is dressed as their previous LARP character Persica. They wear a yellow flower crown with a rose quartz pendant, a white blouse, orange corset, and a green dress. She also wears a chiffon cape with orange shoulder anchors; the chiffon is white with a green ombre near the bottom. She has faux freckles that are barely visible.

Being at MCM Birmingham in late November with my partner and my best friend is so funny because we've all been running around trying to secretly buy each others' Christmas presents

My friends and I signed up for a fairytale school blockbuster LARP last week and now we've pulled in all our LARP friends

It's not until 2027 but I'm so excited to play pretend in a fancy house surrounded by lovely people

Reasons I'm glad I still wear a mask:

A cold went around my work team and pretty much everyone got it and had to take time off and I (so far, knock on wood) have been fine.

And that's just with cloth masks and taking care of my immune system. After my COVID struggles I'm glad things are looking up

saw my favourite animal for the first time since knowing they're my favourite animal
Aspyn crouches down outside the raccoon habitat facing away from the camera wearing an orange cardigan and grey beret. A raccoon can be seen behind the fence standing on grass looking up at the visitors. Some other guests, including a buggy, can be seen to the left also watching the raccoons. A raccoon stands on some rock work next to an empty artificial stream. Behind her is grass and more rock work.

got to play my new little guy tonight and I already love them ✨ so much ✨
A reference sheet for Foxglove (they/he) depicting two full body illustrations, a bust and side profile bust, and detailed views of an outfit, a wooden half mask, and a handful of oracle cards. The background is a purple and blue nebula with stars and there is a bar of reference colours at the top. Foxglove is a gaunt halfling with pale skin, brown and green hair, one green eye, and eyebags. They wear a wooden half mask over their left eye to hide a purple crystal prosthetic. Their signature look includes a big constellation blanket cloak and fancy clothing with lots of pouches and foliage.

Happy Hallowe'en!

I've been far too busy to source a costume this year, so here my 5am Pearl cosplay from Twitch Con

I love this kit look, being a blend of my love for the Life Series and for LARP, and I'm excited to keep adding bits and bobs to it every time I wear it!
Aspyn in their 5am Pearl cosplay takes a mirror selfie. They wear a white blouse and black shorts with a red velvet Capelet and matching bodice corset. Tilly, a white wolf, sits on their right shoulder.
