Call me Phosphor!
I’m just here (very reluctantly, given tumblr’s Everything) for my friends and my fandoms, and I read much more than I post. I expect that I’ll mostly post Fallen London stuff (namely my OCs and my fanmade sigils) but who knows. I may occasionally post things on my headmate Lark’s behalf, including stuff about his own FL OC. (You can find him on his own blog as well, at @lutekeeper.)
Anyone who’s not a TERF/Nazi/etc is welcome to follow. I believe in good faith and in caring about people despite their messiness; I have no fondness for exclusionism, puritanism, or the slapfighting that passes for “discourse” on social media. Do with this information what you will.

FAQ
Why am I blocked?
See this post.
Are you still drawing Correspondence sigils/taking requests?
Yes! I go long periods where I don't draw any because I'm prone to getting deleted by seasonal depression and other health woes, but it's always okay to send in requests as long as you understand that it may be a while until I get to it.
Can I get a tattoo of one of your sigils/use it in my Fallen London fanart/brand it onto my Fallen London OC’s back/(some other personal noncommercial use that doesn’t involve blockchain or AI)?
Yes, go ahead! No credit needed.
Can I make NF*Ts of your sigils/use your sigils to train my AI/(some other techbro junk)?
No. Fuck off.
Can I use your sigils in a non-techbro commercial project?
Ask me first! If it’s something like slapping my art onto T-shirts, almost certainly no. If it’s something like “I’m drawing my Correspondent OC for a Neathy charity zine and want to use one of your designs,” then it’ll probably be fine - but again, ask me first!

Strange house we must keep and fill.
House that eats and pleads and kills.
House on legs. House on fire. House infested
With desire. Haunted house. Lonely house.
House of trick and suck and shrug.
Give-it-to-me house. I-need-you-baby house.
House whose rooms are pooled with blood.
House with hands. House of guilt. House
That other houses built. House of lies
And pride and bone. House afraid to be alone.
House like an engine that churns and stalls.
House with skin and hair for walls.
House the seasons singe and douse.
House that believes it is not a house.
the really nice thing about Threadloop is that because we live in a timeline that sucks, there's a proliferation of stolen and AI-generated sewing patterns all over the web, and even putting that aside, sometimes patterns just... suck, with unclear or even misleading instructions. but Threadloop lets you filter out patterns suspected of being AI-generated and a lot (though not all) of patterns catalogued on there have reviews from people who've made them. my general go-to is still searching up a pattern site on sewing reddit/skimming a site's free patterns before I commit to any paid patterns from them, but this is a great tool for discovering new pattern makers. hence, why it is so dangerous

every so often I encounter another reason to be like "I'm so damn glad alexis kennedy isn't doing fallen london anymore" and today's reason is discovering that "erzulie" isn't a nonsense name he came up with for his insanity cannibalism storyline, but a real word. specifically, a type of loa/spirit in haitian vodou. fucking Yikes(tm) dude
me, going over the fallen london ttrpg core book preview with a magnifying glass and a scalpel: "I hope magpie games understands that I nitpick because I care, and because I'm mentally ill"
do not misunderstand. the book is good. the book is really good, actually, as a general overview of the neathyverse at least (I don't have enough ttrpg experience to judge the mechanics). it's because it's good that I am invested a normal amount in proofreading it. if it sucked, I would have thrown up my hands and not bothered. but because it's really good, I have gone "but what if it could be Even Better? what if it could be Perfect" which is an entirely normal, wholly healthy, and not at all parasocial thing to think about a project I am not formally involved with

all that said, I really am enjoying the head-shooting part. I genuinely do like that the combat is both slower and spicier than warframe (especially if you went full glass cannon rogue like me) and I extremely enjoy having to aim for people's heads, one by one, with a normal bow that shoots normal arrows with normal video game arrow physics. I love my cinta a whole bunch, y'all know this, but there's something just really satisfying about going "hey watch this" and nailing some dude through the face from 700 meters away
anyway my feelings about soulframe so far are that it's a fun head-shooting simulator, but I'm loath to treat it as any more than that until it hits 1.0, ideally with a lot of quality of life additions.
like holy cow, restricting fast travel to three whole times a day? I get that they want players to slow down and enjoy the journey, but the thing is, "slow down and enjoy the journey" applies mostly to traveling in real life where things are continuously new and changing. nothing is continuously new and changing in any live service open world, not at a rate that matches how much your dedicated players grind. (something like "you can only fast travel every 30 minutes" would feel much better to me - that way I wouldn't just fast travel everywhere and would think about how to pass 30 minutes in a particular zone, but I also wouldn't be fretting about using up my Limited Fast Travel Charges.)
and I also get that gamedev is hard and that the game is in heckin pre-alpha, and I am saying this with the hope that people will give it grace accordingly. but. also. there's a number of decisions in this game's history that seem needlessly tedious at best and hostile at worst. like what the fuck do you mean you had to spend a rare item every time you wanted to reallocate your stats for a new build. how are these decisions being made by the same people who made warframe? (the answer is "it's not the same people, it's a different team within DE trying to do a different thing.") like it's good that they realized these things were excessive and rolled them back, but these feel like problems that had already been solved (or not solved, to their detriment) by several games, including warframe
the ode Really don't like it when I fill their heads with arrows. they say it's "barbaric" and "rude" and "making it hard to meet KPIs." to which I say: if they don't want me to fill their heads with arrows, then why don't they simply stop colonizing alca? are they stupid?
woke up from a nap with an intense urge to resub to ffxiv for the sole purpose of getting Really Good at triple triad. I think my resident snakes want to play cardgames
in this dream I had to endure a house visit from the traitor empress, who was cross-examining me on every word of our "pleasant chat." according to the dream logic These Visits Just Happen Sometimes. also you have to be dressed Properly when she visits, in full mourning regalia, but I didn't have any of that so I made a headband with very long pieces of scotch tape stuck to it. part of the "pleasant chat" was me trying to convince the traitor empress that this was proper mourning regalia because the children I was teaching took great amusement in it. "they say it makes me look like I'm being eaten by a jellyfish," I said, staring the empress directly in the eye
eventually I managed to wiggle away and dream-me decided to chill out by playing triple triad. which is really the most unrealistic part of this dream, because triple triad has never been relaxing
anyway now I want some kind of fallen london activity that requires you to be dressed Somberly and Properly. except, because you're the FLPC, resident harry du bois of the neath, you can instead come dressed in What The Fuckever. this activity would also have tie-ins for all of the bizarre, questionable, and downright alarming items in your wardrobe, and you'd have to pass increasingly difficult mithridacy checks to convince your hosts that your own shed skin, a giant headache, and a kitty collar count as Somber And Proper Dress

dream lucidity is actually such a mercurial thing. last night I dreamed that I was looking for my gate at an airport but kept running into dead ends, and eventually I was like "well, since this is a dream, if I Will It So hard enough I'll get there" and proceeded to noclip through the floor into a secret basement that contained the gate I was looking for. at no point did it occur to me, though, that I could choose to dream of something other than frantically trying to be on time for a flight, and of course I forgot about Imposing My Will entirely when I entered the bathroom and found that all of the toilets were unusable, on account of them all being one apple tall and mounted to the wall at chest level
