Hi again, gang! S'been a while 🐝 I have so much to cover in this update, so I'm gonna try to break everything down into bullet points to make it easier to digest LOL
Let's start with the more personal things!
I recently got a new car, so that was pretty cool (I traded in my 2021 Jeep for a 2026 Mazda) I don't really care about cars or the brand, so I asked my mom to pick LMAO yes I am a grown woman who still relies on her mommy, what of it
I also got the new job I'd been wanting for a while now at a plasma donation center, which is perfectly in line with the phlebotomy course I intend to take sometime this year ^^
I've been doing a lot more baking lately (cuz I love sweets, so I just wanna make 'em myself). I baked mini cookies a while ago, and more recently, strawberry/chocolate cake pops! My next baking endeavor will be cinnamon bites 👁️
I made a new Kirby ita bag, and I'm super proud of how it came out!
Been playing Code Vein 2 with my friend, so if you see a Valentin, Noah, or Lyle fic in the coming months, then no you don't-
I bought a JJK Tamagotchi, and I've been raising it for a bit now cuz I wanted Megumi originally, but I fumbled a lot until I ended up with Nobara finally, so I just decided to grow her into Gojo 😌
That's pretty much the end of all the personal stuff, so let's get into the game development tingz!
The Afterstory (18+) for Dark Roast Romance is underway! My friend, and co-artist, @darkflames29 (yes, I'm promo'ing her rn) has finished the base art for the new CG's, and I've also started on the script, and finished 1/2 of Souris' new sprites! I would share the art for his new sprites, but I want it to be a surprise 👁️ But I will say, he's very dressed up! and dressed down later in the game iykwim
Souris has a voice claim now! I think I have another post for my other VN ML's with their JP voices, so I'll just add Sou's to that 🤔 But for anyone reading this post, I imagine his voice would sound similar to Ruler James Moriarty (1st Ascension) from FGO (Itou Kentou). It has a deepness, yet soft playfulness to it, and I think that fits him perfectly ^^
I'm also in the process of planning another RPG Maker game right now, along with another VN. Once I get something more concrete for both, I'll share more details ^^
Now, for the art/creative news!
Since I look a bit different now, I decided to update my Bee splash art (it shows up at the start of all my games), and I'm really enjoying the new art 🥹
I've been practicing pose/perspective to help make my art more dynamic, and I ended up using 9S from Nier as my guinea pig 👁️ And honestly??? Super happy with how it came out; I'll make a separate post for the art later
Looking into actually posting my NSFW art on my Pixiv, but only the completed and colored pieces. I have a lot of NSFW art I haven't finished yet lmao- If I get around to doing that, I actually will!
And I think that's pretty much it! Obviously, my job will be taking up more of my free time now, but I plan to work on the Afterstory whenever I'm even near my laptop, bit by bit, so I can finish it before the end of 2026 LOL

The orca found himself traveling further and further from the water, and into an island he'd found in the middle of it. It was one he hadn't seen before, or at least one he certainly never acknowledged. Though he didn't do it often, the killer whale would occasionally find himself curious enough to wander from the safer waters, and onto land.
The island seemed covered in greenery, from tall trees to shrubs and odd looking flowers. Though, the one thing he expected to see was less than present -- wildlife. Or, more specifically, bugs and other insects. They didn't exist where he resided, but he'd seen a few while traveling amongst the ocean. How odd. Though, after a bit of traveling, Idate caught sound of something moving around the brush.
"Hm?" He turned towards the sound, hands still stuffed in his pockets, as usual.
