+ Inactive Account + [Note: crocus has left Tumblr. Messages will NOT be answered.] I've enjoyed my time and improved a lot in my art while I was here. Thank you to all my Followers for their support and for having fun together with me ;;u;; Keeping this blog here as an archive due to Follower request. Thanks for stopping by and feel free to dig into the tags for my old works XD I'll be off now to continue pursuing my dreams to become the world's top artist. May your days be filled with courage, optimism and fun. Stay strong and overcome all those obstacles in your way!! >:'-DD - 11 July 2015, crocus
So I had been in Tumblr for a total of 1 year 10 months.
During that period, there had been awesome moments and not so good ones, but overall, it had been a super productive one for sure!
The 'my art' tag alone has approximately 380 posts, so it's 380 posts of sharing my ideas and having fun with my viewers >u<
Through that lot, I had improved in AU creations, comics and drawing skills.
Now, I really wouldn't have been able to come that far if it wasn't for the support of all of you, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
To all who had always supported and looked forward to my drawings, THANK YOU SO MUCH---!! ;;___;;
Hope that I had made your days brighter even by just a little. I'll be sure to treasure my experience here and remember it as I move on in life UuU,,
I'll be off to run at full speed to the top of the world now. Planning to do a thing that can turn the whole world upside down, so some 10-20 years from now, you'll most likely run into my works again xD
If fate wills it, then we might even be conversing like the old times again.
In which case, I'll be looking forward to that OuO,,
Last words:
The flower meaning of 'crocus' is 'resurrection'.
It's one of the first flowers to bloom at the end of winter, marking the coming of spring and the resurrection of nature. It's a super strong flower that can stand the harshness of the cold.
Now, I'd be happy if you can carry this flower and its meaning in your mind as you walk through life.
Even if you fail, I want you to be able to stand back up.
No matter how harsh and difficult your life could be, promise that you'll have faith, stay strong, and do your best to overcome all the obstacles.
Things will work out and everything will be okay :')
May your life be full of courage, good deeds and happiness ^^
P.S. I won't be replying to them, but thank you all for the messages in my Inbox ;;u;; I'll think of the warmness of your support as I open a new door in life. Thank you~ UuU,,

Hi, guys! Hope everyone's been doing well while I wasn't around ;v;
Anyway, been doing school work nonstop, so I wanna rant somewhere to clear my head OTL
Made SO MANY accomplishments at school even I couldn't believe myself XD
Generally having a super awesome life and making a crazy amount of cool friends.
Under the Read More is just crocus non-stop bragging about said accomplishments, so feel free to skip >u>;;;
[I really haven't been doing anything aside from school, so this post is really 100% only about school. Possibly super boring OTL]
+ School Life
NyaaaaaAAA----!!! Since I started this year's college, I've been so flooded with schoolwork I never had time to draw anything other than school tasks OTL;;;
(Ue-sama--!! Missed drawing you so much~~ T___T)
On the other hand, I've been pouring everything I've got into school stuff.
Certainly getting one of the highest scores in my whole grade and turning quite popular among the teachers and the studious students (yay~!) >u<,,/
As a result, I made so many awesome friends it's unbelievable----!!
Currently, I hang around a crowd of over 10 people and talk to all of them often, being pretty close to all. They're all awesome artists too and we did school work and doodled a lot together-- ;;;___;;;
As someone who couldn't make even a single friend in the past, I feel so blessed T___T (Hard work paying off! Yush!!!)
*crocus is generally the person giving drawing advice to classmates :3
Yerp, since I never had this many close friends in real previously, this feels like a whole new life. I'll treasure these new bonds~ ;;w;;
+ Class Forum
I said that Imma make one awhile ago. Well, I did!!
And it turned out to be quite a success! >x'D
The illustration course was divided into Class A and Class B (some 40 students each). Both have different schedules, so we almost never run into each other.
With the internet forum, I seemed to have been able to break that wall to a certain extent.
I (I'm in Class B) managed to get some close friends in Class A too from discussions in the forum >u<b
We're now using the forum to do personal projects, homework discussions, and for having fun ouo,,
+ Leader!crocus *___*
If you ask me, up until awhile ago, I had always been more of a follower.
Whether it's projects or discussions, usually I'll be that quiet person tailing behind with whatever the group leader had to say :p
But this year, it seems that (somehow) I had managed to change that *__*
I started to become more daring and confident about my own ideas.
Now in group discussions, I'm the leader most of the time. Never thought taking the initiative could feel this awesome O__O
Thanking Ue-sama again for this. That commander part must have rubbed off a bit, nya~ =w=,, <33 (good)
Not gonna lose! Will do my best to be a good leader and help everyone around me as best as I can! >:-DDD
+ Basara Friends irl!!!
Yaaaa---!!! I found some in my course!!!!
One of my best friends (who draws super awesomely) is one!
She's mainly a Yoshiteru fan, but drew me a super cool Yasu once. I'm cry~ QwQ
So I drew a Yoshiteru back. Love her so much~ ^3^,, <33
A super serious student too. Cool friend. We're aiming for the top together :3
Then this afternoon I FINALLY found another Yasu fan!
...In my own classroom! (Where had you been all this time?! How come I never knew?! <x'DD)
So we doodled 4 pages of Ieyasu together in one go! Aaaaaaa ;;;;w;;;; (so happy)
+ Sensei!! XDD
There's one subject I particularly like (Art direction, generally designing things for games). It's more or less the same as the game designer job I've always dreamed of, and it's super fun, so I tend to pour too much energy into it @w@;;;
I keep getting one of the highest scores in each task, and the teacher said that I hit 300% of what was expected in one of the tasks, which no one had ever done until now au;;;
In addition, sensei said that I had so much willpower that he found me quite interesting <x'D
Sensei!! I won't let you down! Will keep doing my best!! >u<
Hoping to keep this up until I reach the top of the world, yes~
Work hard, crocus!!!! *w*
+ Ue-sama---!!!!! :::w:::: <33333
Seriously, sometimes when I think back, I feel like I probably would've come this far if I haven't met him. Omggggg thank you so much~ ;;;;w;;;;
And thank you to everyone who have supported me too.
I'm a blessed person UuU,,
Kindness, hardwork, courage, optimism.
Will carry those with me and see what I can contribute to this world owo,,
Super happy to have played SB and learned lots of things from it. Certainly one of the best games I've ever played ;;u;;
Excitedly waiting for the new game! Happy anniversary~ ^^
Hey, Just wanted to stop by and say that I've enjoyed all the art and contributions to the fandom as far as art, Alternative Universes, and writings you've done to inspire so many of us. You will be missed here, and I wish you nothing but the best of luck as to where you're going and where you'll be in the future. You're an energetic person, kind and creative. I'm sure you'll succeed in your dreams and aspirations, Crocus! It was lovely knowing you and seeing you around!
Uwaaaa, thank you so much for everything--!! You’re a really wonderful person too ;;;____;;;
I’ll keep giving life everything I’ve got!! >:’DDD

vitriolism replied to your post: Please do not deactivate, this may be a bit...
If possible, you could leave the blog open but simply not update it. Or before you leave, reblog all your old art to a archive blog?

Ahh!! It'd be so terrible to have this all lost, do you think that maybe you could keep the account up if only to keep it as an archive?? You're wonderful, crocus, and I wish you well, it's good to have a fresh start sometimes, but I think it'd be good to leave this as an archive.... ;;
Uwaaa, you guys are really kind---!!! T_______T
*hugs everyone again*
Hmm~ Since there are unexpectedly lots of people asking to keep the blog, I’ll keep it then ;u;
bravocube replied to your post: Leaving Tumblr soon...
Where are you going?? I don’t wanna miss any new things you do!
Nyaa, I feel like I suck so bad lately. Really wanna start fresh. Probably the things I draw after this are gonna be completely different/unrelated to my current ones that you probably won’t even recognize that it’s me... TuT
For some personal reasons, I’d prefer to not tell where I go after this. Please understand... ;;___;;

Ok, I’ve debated whether or not I should, turned the question around at least 100 times in my head, and reconsidered everything...
And then I decided that maybe I should OTL;;;
Hmm... Various reasons.
Mainly I wanna change direction with my art style, the things I draw, and a lot of other things.
It’s been almost 3 years since I made this account and I felt like I’ve grown a lot as a person. My aims changed and I felt as though I’ve grown out of this account because of it...
I really still have LOTS of plans, AUs and comics I’ve yet to finish and start, as well as plans for this account, but it looked like I can’t carry through with them... ;;;___;;;
I feel the need to change and start fresh... x____x
So for that, I’ll be migrating elsewhere after this.
I’m planning to start focusing more on comics, digital painting and maybe start trying out more original stuff. So I’ll go look for sites that are focused on those.
Of course, I’ll still be pursuing the path of becoming a famous mangaka in future *__*
I would’ve left earlier, but I said I’ll be joining the SB anniversary event, so I’ll hang around till the event is fully over :)
That said, if everything’s going smoothly then,
This account will be deactivated at July 23, 2015.
[EDIT: Since some followers told me not to deactivate & keep the blog as an art archive, I’ll do that. (Thanks for the support & thanks for liking my art, guys ;u;) So yeah... I’ll just leave without deleting :)]
All activities on this blog will halt on July 23, 2015.
My submission for the SB anniversary event will be the only and last drawing that I’ll upload over here after this.
I’ll use the remaining time to save everything I need and prepare.
Will write a proper farewell message around that time.
This account stops here at 3710 posts and 2779 Followers.
Thanks for all your support so far everyone ;;u;;
If I reached my dream and turn famous, then we’ll definitely meet again somewhere ^^ (If not, then I really don’t deserve your attention <x’DD)
One thing for sure though, is that I’ll keep doing my best and I’ll never let you down.
I’ll make sure that all your support so far is not for nothing! >:’DDDD
Please be well, everyone, and keep reaching for your dreams UuU,,
MUNE-CHAN, MY DEAAARR! Thank you~ ;;u;; <333
Such sweet~ UuU,, <33
I wish you an awesome birthday too! ;;;u;;;
*shamelessly draws some Masaie just this once*
Thank you for always being with me and facing every obstacle together all this time ;;u;;
There’s no battlefield I can’t run through if I have you.
Let’s head to the top together~ :’DDD <333
Okay this may sound really odd and out of nowhere BUT. I shared your birthday artwork of dystopian Motonari and Ieyasu with a friend who no longer uses tumblr (but was loving the designs in general--aitogi's for Mouri in particular) AAAND she wanted me to tell you that she loves your rendition of it! Since I'm here... I really love it, too. <3
Ou! Don’t worry about it! Thank you both of you~ ^3^,,Glad that you like my drawing >u<,,
Happy Birthday to you, Tokugawa-donoooo—!!!! *▽* <33333333
I hope you have happy days for all the rest of your days~! XD <333333
AZAI-DONOOO!!!
Your drawings are super pretty–!! And your art style is turning so cute O_____O!!
I love~ >u< <33
Thanks for drawing this for me~ ;u;
Wishing you happy days, too ^^
