You know, I'm not actually a huge shipper! I rarely find ships that absolutely steal me by storm. I usually just like character dynamics for the most part.

I guess my big exception is Huskerdust. It just seems so important in a way. Like, Angel is used to being USED, in this horrible hyper sexual way, by the industry, and obviously by Valentino.

I'm about to ramble head cannons so please bare with me! Husker on the other hand, doesn't seem interested in that at all, and in fact just, calls Angel out on his bullshit. During Loser Baby, it meant SO much that Husker just, accepted Angel as a person, not as an object.

Personally I really, REALLY like the idea that even if they got together, nothing would physically happen for a long time. Like I suspect Husker probably hasn't had a lot of experience in a long time, and would be shy or anxious with someone he actually really cared about.

And I actually kinda suspect the same thing about Angel! Being a porn star is a job- a particularly traumatizing job for him. Physical contact in that way never had emotional connection, or all the emotional connection was bad, and trauma based.

I suspect for Angel to find someone he really loved, that maybe he would have a hard time opening that side of himself. Because the baggage isn't gone, and now it *means* something, because he'd be with someone he loves.

I know the age rating is high (17+) most specifically for violence, gore and drug use, compared to the stuff people know me for, so I want to make sure to navigate the higher age rating properly and not just expose some of it to younger audiences?

I'd love to hear yalls opinions on how you think the best way I should share it should be.

Also at the very least I'd also love to share the cover of the book. <3 Tried out a new brush in clip studio and DAMN I'm proud of the outcome!

I haven't really had much art I've been doing lately that feels postable? The novel is still in the works but a close family member had brain surgery at the beginning of the month and to keep a long story short I'm just trying to stay above water like everyone else and keep my mental health in check to the best of my current ability!

Anyway, just popping into the one social media site I (occasionally) use now, to keep yall updated a bit! Once I have things worth posting I'll post em. Soon I'm going to have a few new things on my etsy shop and I'll probably post photos of those whenever I can sit down to work on the listings.
