i am just sitting here

the ragnir the ragnir is real

made this as a prop for my loki cosplay. had to grapple with limited time and the fact that this little bastard has been drawn slightly differently in every in every panel since he appeared. If i made another i would do some things differently BUT i am still very pleased with how he turned out :)

i successfully replaced the screen on my 2dsxl. wahoo

the good news:

- i can play awakening again

- i now feel more powerful than god

the bad news:

- i broke one of the speakers. less bad news because the other one should also be broken but i miraculously managed to save it. however this is all irrelevant because i also broke the volume slider

but because of how tumblr works, old reblogs of posts from before i made them private can still be seen, and i will still get notes for them.

it's always a treat when someone digs up an old post of mine and starts circulating again. like, basically everything from my thunderbolt fantasy era has been scrubbed from my blog, but in the last few weeks a few of those posts have started getting a few notes here and there. i love that some dumb little comics i made 5-10 ago are still making someone laugh.

my seldom-used bluesky is thechanticleer.

my neocities is chanticleer. there is very little there now but i've been meaning to start using it more

i've only played the beginnings of both but. they're certainly worth spending more time with.

He does! The most solid ideas i have after Einar are for Kellam, Lon'qu, and Frederick's kids, but Kellam's kid is actually the only one i have something to show for.

I haven't actually worked on these designs in like. a year or something, so these are all pretty old, and just quick sketches. Her design is still a work in progress.

(I tried like 20 different color schemes and none of them were quite right, rip)

Her name is Paloma, and her starting class is Thief.

She inherited Kellam's lack of presence, and used it to her advantage as a child. She loved to sneak around, play pranks, and make mischief. She often played with the 'Justice Cabal' group, usually making herself the villain.

Her opinions on her sneaking skills changed after her father died. When Kellam died, no one saw; no one knew how he died, and his body was never recovered. He just didn't come home one day. She came to fear that she would die in the same way, alone and unremembered. However, her ability to stay hidden is what let her stay alive in Grima's world, so she had to keep on honing her skills and ended up in the role of a thief.

Now, back in the past-present, she doesn't need to hide. She'll still resentfully make use of her stealth skills on the battlefield, but tends to make a loud, flashy nuisance of herself when it's safe to. Her insecurities about being forgotten tend to manifest in an 'any attention is good attention' mindset that leads to her making trouble and causing friction with other members of Chrom's army.
