Hiiii! Yess I am! I just needed a short break so I didn’t totally burn out and took time to do what I wanted ^^~ I’d imagine Pierrot and harlequin to be a mix of overjoyed and also curious of their little ones, doctor would definitely feel those parental instincts to his eggs- I find that both Jester and Ticket Taker both find fondness for their little one(s).

YoshiP, the director and producer for the game Final Fantasy XIV of which I'm a huge a fan, once went on record in front of a crowd announcing that the game will slowly be unlocking gendered gear for both masculine and feminine models. That is to say, they're going back to a lot of old gear set and making it so that even if you're on a male model, you can wear "traditionally feminine" clothing like dresses etc just fine. The personal anecdote he shared along with it was because he saw a mother react repulsively towards someone wearing the supposedly wrong gendered outfit on his commute one day, pulling her child away while this person was just walking and minding their own business, and that greatly saddened him. So even though he only worked on a game, he wanted to give players and potential players somewhere they could express themselves freely.

This was a pretty incredibly rare move for an MMORPG, never mind one that constantly came out with new gear sets multiple times per expansion. Game devs were going back to old equipment models and redoing them for both model genders, and we'd had consistent updates on hairstyles, clothes, all kinds of things since then.

I'm not here to say that Naoki Yoshida is a perfect person who always deserves everyone's support. I can think of at least one instance where I wish he would do better, lmao. But he's been incredibly professional with his product and also understands that it's a collaborative work of art and game, and he's always been very kind towards the people who play his game and who his product immediately affects, as well. He also went on record directly telling harassment on the English voice actor for a major character in the new expansion, who IRL is a trans woman, to stop. She posted that at a later FanFest, he met up with her to ask how she was doing and hung out with her specifically, afterwards.

I dunno. The recent FanFest reminded me of this. He brought out a senior member of the battle design system to introduce some earth-shaking changes to said battle system and other parts of FFXIV, and spent a lot of time introducing him and showing the team's strong support for the guy. Players are most cynical and abusive when it comes to system changes in MMOs, and considering how YoshiP had been in the past, his kindness and support for the guy felt incredibly purposeful and yet still very sincere.

I remember the anecdote and it's from this interview:

If you really want good insight into Yoshi-P and how he looks at things (he's extremely intelligent btw, though like any person he's got his blind spots), I suggest reading Yoshida Uncensored, which a dedicated fan translated both volumes for everyone to check out. They're not always about FFXIV but you will learn a LOT about things you didn't expect. Volume 1: https://drive.google.com/file/d/117EBap9Koo2U1EqSPbf7KVeBgg_gdkBd/view

I gave Nyx beans-

LOOK THIS BEEN ON MY MIND NONSTOP, besides he's a robot he probably have extra hands and maybe one of them has BEANS.

after some thinking, I’ve decided to release each night one at a time rather than all at once

so, that being said, Night 1 will be dropping on July 18th, this coming Saturday, at 3pm EST!

Are u even sleeping???? You post hourly!! Omg!

Beloved Darth 😭

Pls pls pls get some needed rest and drink water and eat well and take ur pain meds plsss! Don't burn out like that 😔

Take good care of yourself or I'll grab Doctor and tell him to heavily sedate you 🫀💉

I promise that I did get some sleep! I don't normally stay up that late, but I was dealing with some menstrual cramps and unfortunately when they're bad enough I can't sleep at all, so my brain then goes 'well, if I can't be unconscious I'm going to be feral about it and make that someone else's problem' /silly

Currently I have SOME chapters from these books digitally (which I have already relied upon heavily in my citations), but not the entire books.

I've added the books to my Throne Wishlist for direct purchase, or you can support me on Kofi so I can order them myself:

While this is not the first commission I've completed on VGen, it certainly is the first spicy one— and I'm really happy with how it turned out and the commissioner trusting me to deliver on what they were looking for with our charming Harlequin :3c

So behold! I have a feeling that I will be learning a lot about the intricate details of proper sound effects and crafting a good soundscape for these types of audios (and also how to pronounce Portuguese better...). It is genuinely a lot of fun to do! :D

Nossa [Wow]. You're already nodding. You don't even know what you're agreeing to. That's my favorite part. The blind, stupid trust. It's delicious

You think you can handle me? That's cute. You don't even know what you're asking for, do you, queirda? Não, não [No, no] — don't look away. I want to watch you squirm.

Meu Deus [My god] (light chuckle) Look at you. All flustered already, and I haven't even moved yet. (clicking tongue) Você é muito fofa e patética [You are very cute and pathetic].

(Quiet grunts)

Tell me... does Pierrot make you sound like this? Hm? (grunt, brief slapping sounds) Does he fuck you like he's trying to carve his name into your skin? Your bones? No, of course not.

That sad little mutt wouldn't know how. He'd probably ask permission. Holding your hand. Bringing you flowers. How sweet.

Mas eu vou te destruir [But I'm going to destroy you]. I'll ruin you so beautifully you'll forget your own name.

Still no answer. Can't even speak. Tão adorável [So adorable]… So pretty when you're brainless.

Say it. Say he doesn't make you feel a fucking thing. Say you're mine. Say it while I'm inside you, filling you so full that—

(whispers) you'll be dripping me for hours.

Fale Querida [Speak, my dear]. Speak. Or I stop. Your choice.

(Silence)

That’s what I thought. He never stood a chance, did he? Poor, pretty Pierrot…

You belong to me.
