Oh Cliché, I love the colours and softness of this drawing! Which character of yours is the one conducting? Is it someone you've shared before?

Congratulations, Alex! Finishing a book is always such a massive achievement, and what a great place to do so at ☺️

Wishing you the happiest of birthdays, juuni!! 🥳

—instead of having to conform, and they themselves feel sure of their own particular way of existing despite what normalcy dictates in their world, and that their existence isn't looked down upon by the narrative their in.

Thank you for sharing this with us – I found reading it quite touching ❤️

Knowing this about Ingmar gives me an even deeper appreciation for him, and also explains why I feel inexplicably drawn to him as a character. These themes really resonate with me, and it's refreshing to see characters and stories where the ones classified as the other are left to be as they are—

Nothing wrong with channeling those 19th century novelist vibes at times 😌

It's such a great way to do that! As someone who also writes along side doing art, this sort of thing is exactly my jam and I'm so excited to receive the first entry ☺️ there's also something very charming about getting the next chapter of a story in the mail

Absolutely love the idea behind this and the format – can't wait to see what you make with it!

Aw, of course! I get attached, ahah 💛

That makes a lot of sense — they make part of who he is too. Knowing this makes me appreciate your composition even more!

I really like that you incorporated this aspect of the lived experience in his story and concept 😊

Ingmar and Sai smiling 😭!!! You’re spoiling us with this one! Wishing them too, in their world, a happy new year 🥂

I really enjoy how you’ve organised this piece: seeing the different things in the gaps between the puzzle pieces but not seeing them entirely really reminds me of the unsettling sense you get after waking up from a nightmare you can’t fully remember.

(I hope your OC is doing ok though 😭!!)

So adorably ready to embroider!! 🐰 I also just realised… is the Henry in the embroidery hoop a bunny too? Are those ears I spot??

This is very sweet of you to say — thank you 🥹 I’m excited to make more art, and look forward to seeing the art you make in this new year too!!

It’s quite a particular song but something about it feels ethereal and satisfying to me, ahah. I’m very curious to hear Le Festin too; I’ll make sure to give it a listen as well 😊

Thank you so much, Cliché — I hope you’ve had a great day as well!!

Really like how you’ve laid this one out, and the aesthetic you’ve chosen to display all the info! The strawberry socks are adorable too 🍓

Also, a fellow Haikyuu!! enjoyer! Do you have any favourite characters from there? 👀

Happy new year!! 🎉

Really enjoying how you’ve captured the flow of the fabric with all those thin lines in this piece!
