Just Mandika

Hi, I'm Mandika. You've probably seen one of my posts flying around here on Tumblr. It's not often I do this, and the past two times doing this, I have had no success with commissions. Usually this would be for myself, or it would be to support my family given our home situations.

This time it is different.

I am trying to help one of my friends out of a dire situation. He and his father are just BARELY able to afford rent, it's gotten to the point where his father would have to sell jewelry to afford a living. I'm humbly providing a video from his YouTube channel to explain the situation, and to ensure that it's not ill-willed.

Jox is a good friend of mine. And I want to help him in any way possible. I'm spreading this here on the Tumblr side of the exe community to hopefully have people help support him and his endeavors. Jox has a Ko-Fi page in the description of his video, and even on his YouTube home page.

Please, if you can help him out in any way whether it's donating or spreading awareness throughout the community, it would be sincerely appreciated. I want to help him out the best I can given how much he has done for me and many others in the exe community.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. And thank you for supporting him if you do. I only want to wish him the best and try to lend a helping hand, given how dire the situation has become. Once again, thank you for reading this message.

// No. I do not think I will be bringing back any of my ask blogs. Not only do I not have the time for them, but I think it would be best to keep them up as memories for me and many others to scroll through.

// I won't be bringing back Rexer, Pearce, or which other blogs I once had. But I will happily develop my stories and interpretations of them amongst friends. In a way, this can be a proper send off to those two blogs.

hehe haha ha ha

Amy and genesisx

Mighty ray and eyx all from the same world

I would believe that to be the case, given how some of the original stories / games have character portrayals. Even more so with Ray and EYX.

Unfortunately for some of those worlds however, it's just back to the same old hell hole. The damage may already be done at that point. I expect the more 'normal' ones like most of the main cast to be traumatized after these events.

Just some fun self-indulgent Outcome Memories stuff with friends (I love playing Amy, but I'm so shit at playing her). Below the cut is a few of my friend's designs that I drew for this goofy AU of ours!

To be fair, I try to be relatively active on most of my blogs. But most of the time it's simply because I have a life outside of Tumblr. I do have other things I want to do besides ask blog shenanigans.

Not only that, sometimes I just have a hard pivot into hyper fixations on interests I enjoy. Most of my blogs only last about like, a year at most? (In terms of relevancy) But I don't necessarily push for asks when I know it's not guaranteed.

Another thing to take into account is fandom interactions. I know some folks like my writings, but not every blog/mod is going to want to interact with you. I've had a couple of bad apples between IDV and SIG, and choose not to bother them and waste each other's time. Saves me the trouble and drama.

I pop on Tumblr on the rare occasion to scroll, see what's in my feed and dip half of the time. I'm sorry that I am not as active as I was once a year ago, but things change, people change. While I love writing out my characters, I just feel like nobody really sees the bigger picture behind them. They see the exterior or want to meme on them.
