I'm so glad I was able to draw as much and as often as I did this year <33 Every artwork was just a positive experience looking back, a really good source of comfort during a really heavy year for me :')
2025 noticeably ended up being the Year of Kraena and Lorna sdfgsdgw <33 After YEARS figuring out how to create them lore-wise and design-wise they're finally here, and I'm hoping to write new fics of them in their own AU very soonāI already have tons of ideas to compile a whole series of so the wait won't be too long :> and I'm just very, very thankful and happy for all the love and excitement these two got from my Hilda mutuals when I started sharing them, ranging from all the Lorna gift art to just people gushing, thanks so much everyone <33 :D

So, just to make this very clear, we're blaming @shootingstarpilot for the absolute monster this story has turned into.
Please enjoy the first chapter of It Takes a Village, a story of found family, court drama, and a few guys being both really bad and really good at romance:
If you had asked any one of the Fett brothers if they expected to find themselves embroiled in a fierce court battle involving child abuse and murder because Helix Fett was soft under all the grump and snarling, they would have laughed in your face.
Except Cody. He wouldn't have said he saw it coming per se, but he's not surprised. After all, Stitch was Needle's best friend and he needed help. He knows his brother; they were involved as soon as Helix laid eyes on the kid.
--
They say it takes a village to raise a child; Cody can only begin to imagine what it takes to put a child's abusive parents in jail and then adopt said child.
Due to a series of quite fortunate meetings, the combined power (and villages) of Cody Fett, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Mace Windu are aiming right for the Su-Burtonis--and their mysterious benefactor--and they have no idea what's coming for them.

sneak peak under the cut:
āWe should find the time to get the gang back together.ā Richie Tozier said, barely looking up from the tea party he was currently hosting with Sam. Her black curls that revivaled her fathers were ducked under a backwards neon yellow baseball cap that in no way matched her strawberry print sundress. āA good old Losers reunion.ā
āYou donāt need to plan some elaborate reunion as an excuse to see Eddie, you know?ā Stan Uris said dryly from behind the puzzle he was putting together on their living room table. āHe lives in the city, you have his number. Just ask him to get coffee.ā
Richie scoffed and shot Stan a dirty look. āI said Losers Reunion, not Richie and Eddie reunion. It has nothing to do with seeing Eddie, I donāt even know who that is.āĀ
Patty snickered from where she was curled up with a book on the loveseat, and Sam mimicked the sound. Richie couldnāt help but smile, it wasnāt very often that they were all home. Patty worked at River East Elementary School teaching kindergarten, and was therefore gone all week and home only on weekends. Stan had similar hours at the bank, but Richieās schedule was all over the place and completely unpredictable. This was the first weekend heād had off since heād started at DreamWorks TV nearly a year earlier. He was hoping that heād start getting more weekends off- he worried he was missing out on too much of Samās life.Ā
Samantha Tozier had never been part of the plan, but Richie wouldnāt trade her for anything. Richie and her mother, Sandy Gill, had only been seeing each other casually when sheād found out she was pregnant. Theyād tried throughout the pregnancy to make it work, but they couldnāt pretend to be in love with each other. They barely knew each other, really, and only a couple of months after Sam had been born, Sandy had tearfully told Richie that this wasnāt the life she wanted. She wanted to travel and be free, she didnāt want to be a mom and that she was sorry. Richie had understood- it wasnāt the life heād expected either, but he adapted to it quickly and loved it more than heād thought he would. Last heād heard from Sandy had been 8 months earlier, and she was living somewhere in South Africa. He sometimes worried about what Sam was missing out on with her mother gone, but he felt it was the better option than having Sandy resent being forced to stay around. Plus, she had Stan and Patty in her life, which was better than any parents. Richie knew that for a fact.Ā
Stan and Patty were trying to get pregnant, Patty had told him a couple weeks earlier. They were having problems, but Richie and Stan hadnāt talked about it. Richie thought that maybe he was embarrassed. Two of his closest friends had found themselves with surprise children out of the blue, and he couldnāt get his own wife with child after months of trying. It was nothing to be ashamed of, Richie knew, but he also knew that Stan likely wouldnāt see it that way.Ā Ā
āBesides, Eddie has a boyfriend.ā Richie said with a long sigh. āHavenāt you heard? Theyāre the It couple of the business world these days.ā
Eddie Kaspbrak was the one who got away. Throughout puberty, Richie had been absolutely in love with him. Heād been the awakening to Richieās deeply, deeply repressed homosexual feelings. Eddie had made the summer before high school a hell of emotion overload, and it hadnāt really gotten any better in years. The five months theyād been together in Richieās junior year had been one of the happiest times of Richieās life. But Richieās junior year had been Eddieās senior year, and Richie knew that their relationship was going to hold Eddie back from getting out of Derry (and away from his crazy ass insane mother) and Richie couldnāt let that happen. He wasnāt proud of everything he did as their relationship fell apart, and he didnāt blame Eddie for not keeping in touch after he left. Heād been friendly enough at Stanās wedding, but they werenāt exactly texting buddies even now. Though Richie couldnāt deny that some lingering feelings had made themselves apparent after seeing Eddie at the wedding.Ā
Not just little feelings, either, no. Full blown Oh itās you. Iāve always been waiting for type bullshit. Richie liked to downplay it as much as possible, but he figured that Stan and Patty had figured it out. They were just giving him space, they were both extremely good at knowing when to push Richie and when to back off. Richie had fucked things up with Eddie- good reasons be damned- and Eddie was better off. He was rich and successful and verified on fucking Twitter. He didnāt need some loser high school ex boyfriend whose job was to fetch coffee for people who were verified on Twitter with a pre-school aged daughter dragging him down. Best if Richie just moved on.Ā

Drew characters from one of my series' It Takes A Village, about a girl's life under the warmth and care of different grown ups and families across her county. Frankie is the girl with glasses at the center and the protagonist girl, while everyone else from left to right is Maddie, Zachariah, and Carole whom Frankie loves very much and whom they love back :> Would absolutely be happy if you're interested reading the only 2 stories out so far since ITAV is one of my more sentimental and special stories I've worked on <33

Stitchās no good, very bad day at the hospital.
***
āDid Needle ever tell you about the time he and Rex tried to build a treehouse without telling anyone?ā
Stitch shakes his head, and Helix canāt help but grin as he moves to Stitchās elbow, even as he notes the discoloration that seems to decorate the entirety of the young boyās limb. Itās hard to keep the expression in place when his eyes flick to Stitchās wrist, though. The bruises look like hand prints.

Itās a couple days later than I had wanted to post (fucking editing) but chapter two is officially posted.
Thank you to everyone whoās already interacted with the work, I appreciate you all so much and hope you enjoy the second installment of It Takes a Village.
