perky powerhouse

I know you're posting your current art over on Blusky, but I miss your posts fairly often just because there's no way to filter posts by type or search by tag, y'know?

And if I can be completely self-indulgent, I'd like to be able to link back to your Piratestuck designs for Zororo and Sanjee on the pailing fic my partner and I wrote over on AO3.

This is Niji, btw. New blog after The Purge.

it would be,,,,, so much work;;;;; like I would love to have all my old art easily searchable by tags myself, it's something I lost too when my blog got purged ;_; (I still got everything on my computer, but searching by filename when I need to refer to something is a pain XD) there's also the matter of where/how to do it because tumblr won't let me do it here because of the nsfw

I would have to build a website from the ground up or something and I'm not equipped with the know-how for that atm ;;;;

alternatively making like .PDF collections of old arts and putting those up for download is another option, but those wouldn't be conveniently searchable, would lack tags and sorting and description and context and that's part of the reason I've been putting that off for a long time now...

"If time didn't flow, perhaps I would."

this may just be a me thing but the only romantic partner I am pursuing is Icarus. it isn't even bc he is a floppy haired cutie or that he's a stuttering childhood bestfriend. It's because he was originally mortal and I need Melinoe to feel the deep ties that come with a once mortal shade who she then dedicates herself to. like I want her to feel the deep agony that comes with have your rigid convictions at odds with the existence of the person you so despately care for

Her regimate and upbringing ABSOLUTELY make sense for who she is now (the dedication to even some of the gods worst sins, all of Zeus and Hera being the good guys, the singular reliance on the child soldier if to be read in an unfavorable light) She is trying to do good person if lacking some nuance but that is from a "mortal's" lens.

The parrallel between her and Zagreus is perfect

One of her biggest blind spots so far has been the hight favorability and sympathy towards the gods, and her 'family.' Individuals she hadn't really known. Always cutting the favors in the face of their victims before Chronos stole the throne.

(Chronos ate his children in the mythos and i don't think that is mentioned. irrelevant to this opinion but still)

Again not a bad writing choice and reeeally interesting

But that is to say I want her to develop through her bond, more charity towards the mortals and titan(s) who were at the receiving end of the god's pettiness and wrath, and even more holding her relatives accountable! Not just Chronos

again.

eeesh 😬 advice? i don't know lad, this is a little above my pay grade. i mean, a hydra? i really just fought humans most of the time. a river once i guess. but that was a fluke. what im saying is you're doing things i could have NEVER done at your age ❤️ which also means i have no idea what advice to give you. what's important is that i love and support you always and believe in you.
