What is your blog about?

I will die on this hill of my account being an art blog! However, for the past 9-10 months, it has become a LADS fan account. Love and Deepspace happen to be the 1st game in a long time that has made me stick around on Tumblr after a decade+. I chose to not make a new account for 2 reasons: 1. I was lazy lol 2. I wanted an account that wasn't new, and I felt since I was not using it anyway, why not?

What do you draw? Do you do commissions?

I draw original characters. I rarely do fanart because I don't want to be in that corner of only getting moots over fan art. No, I do not do commissions, but I do trades if we have some rapport.

Love and Deepspace Questions:

How did you get into Love and Deepspace?

I saw an ad while playing another otome game and thought LADS was some AI BS. I was going to ignore it, but I looked into it more so I could laugh at the clown AI game. That was when I found out the clown was me all along and it was not an AI game but a game YEARS in the making. It was still a few months before launch, so I read up all I could and checked out their social platforms. Been a fan since.

Who do you main?

I'm an all LIs fan. I don't have a bias. All of them scratch parts of my brain that make me happy.

How long have you been playing LADS?

I have been playing since launch! I took small breaks here and there! But I do have the pre-lease/launch items!

Do you have an OC, or do you self-insert?

Great question! I do have OCs, mainly 2, but their versions do change up due to timelines.

My Dragon Hybrid, King of Monsters, & Bunny girl Experiment : Waverly the tags #Lads MC - OC Waverly #MC Waverly

???, ???, ??? : Aria

I have artwork of Waverly. Aria will come later.

Waverly is in a polycule with all LIs. She is bubbly, has anger issues, loves her jobs, and loves to hang out with her friends; she can be a bit of a party animal.

Aria is being worked on.

Are you a lorehead/gatekeeper?

Kinda? I am on the firm belief of acknowledging head canons as your or your group's views as long as you keep it that way.

I do, however, enjoy reading up on Love and Deepspace lore and believe canon should be used in some instances to avoid misinformation. Am I the best at knowing LADS lore? Hell no! No matter how much you think you know about a game's lore, there will ALWAYS be missed or forgotten parts.

Views on NON! MC vs MC?

MC is just a template for us. I don't make her into her own person; to me, she is a stand-in for our world, for our daydreams. My OCs are the main characters, and the LIs adore MY OCs.

But I also do not tolerate MC slander on my TL. 80% of MC slander comes from a place of internalized misogyny and made-up rivalry. Besides, if you ever experience being hated on because of the insecurities of other people, it leaves painful memories. Memories I'd rather not think of. I keep words filtered out to avoid it, but sometimes posts slip through, and I block them.

'*•.¸♡ Gacha ♡¸.•*'

How do you feel about p2w/gacha?

This will be an L take-—I fully believe if you are informed of a game being a gacha game and you still choose to play it, there needs to be SOME accountability on your end too.

Gacha games are predatory by default; it IS gambling and if they involve real money or collateral with worth for a CHANCE to win, it is a predatory tactic.

Views on whaling?

I don't pocket watch others, and you shouldn't either. You can't demand free rewards from acts whales achieved for the company and harass said whales for spending. Unless it's from your wallet, mind your business on how other players spend their money.

View on boycotts?

I also stand on speaking up when a game involving gambling slips down a bad slope. When gachas start breaking outfits into several pieces and it's not a fashion gacha game, it needs to be addressed. I support boycotts as long as they are well organized.

Y'all will believe anything if someone claims it from CN side, no research, no proof!

Some of you are childish. Stop blaming other games for Infold's inability to handle poor communication and efforts to handle toxic players. Silent Whispers had nothing to do with Infold. Are they rivals? yes! Did Papergames sue them YEARS ago? yes. News flash! If companies feel their IP or trademark is infringed upon, they have every right to sue. Sony sues companies; Nintendo sues companies. Companies being rivals does not make them the reason for Valko's cancellation.

3. While we are on the topic of Silent Whispers. Their being active RN is because of Bilibili World NOT because Infold is having a scandal. Again, y'all don't do any research and assume another dev studio is making digs at Infold. Also, the SW game character, Theron, was announced months before Valko- are we deadass saying Archosaur Game predicted the future for Infold and made a character who looks nothing like Valko then created a smear campaign day one for said character that is not announced yet?? Do you know how y'all sound?

4. Global side thinks being mean and calling out a few toxic racist, homophobic, and misogynistic CN players is equal to being just as bad. Global and CN LADS fans do not have the same power dynamics in this fandom, I wish we did. Infold treats the CN side vastly differently from Global, Global can barely get answers from them.

NGL; LADS fandom has been exhausting for a long time now, and I think it's time to take a good hard look at ourselves and the level of parasocial addiction Infold created.

I wish the best for Infold and LADS, but I don't think I can look at the game the same for a while. I will always love LADS but this week made me see why Infold was able to be so disrespectful for so long; the majority of this fandom will defend a billion-dollar company for a bunch of pixel men coded and scripted to tell you they love and adore you.

Infold has ghosted y'all, you can blame anyone else, but you cannot deny the fact that Infold is actively choosing not to say anything while feeding CN side apologies and a few context here and there.
