I’d first like to say~~~

My goodness gracious, if you told me 6 months ago I would have this many (and largely I imagine from the DCA fandom!?!), I would have been in utter disbelief 🫢 …but also absolutely delighted!!

I’ve had such a lovely summer doing fanart and interacting with the community. You guys are all so fun and welcoming!

There’s so much more I want to do and now that I’ve largely wrapped up @/dcazine work, I finally have time to explore other ideas!!! I’ve been thinking about it CONSTANTLY. Just art ideas and AUs and comics and yap yap yap

some specifics

Spruce up some sketches from a coupla months ago that i actually really like

fanart! God, i have seen so many cool designs and read SO many fics over the past few months and I have so many feelings and I’m going to pour them on other people through their screens. 👁️ 👄 👁️

Slasher!DCA AU stuff. It’s been at a rolling boil in my brain for WEEKS and i kno it’s a lil out there 😶‍🌫️ but i think i got a actual story to tell and some of u might be interested :3 ?

Lotta inktober sketches bc i love an excuse for dark inky monochrome spooky content. can’t wait. 😛

An actual about-me pinned post

Um! And i’m always good for a message! about anything, but especially art! Always feel free to @ me. i read all your guys’s tags and comments and stuff and it makes me all gooey in the chest 🫠.

Expect mostly sketchy stuff for the next while—kinda burnt out on rendering and i want to become a more efficient drawer anyway can still take me hours to do a simple sketch 😭.

ships:

• sizzy

• leo/calypso

• leo/hazel/frank

• valgrace

• valdangelo

• percethan (asking for fun)

this doesnt actually fit the prompt bc i actually dont know if u ship jason with anyone but do u have any jason ship thoughts? 🤔

omg lets go (also hi babe imy too <3 i actually almost sent you an ask earlier tonight just to bug you hehe)

sizzy - god girl okay yes we all know i ship them to death. why??? because they fused themselves with my heart when i was 15. i think that pretty much does all the explaining i need it to lol but if i was to get more into it.. it's simon's stability and the way he makes izzy feel safe in spite of herself. it's isabelle's confidence in simon and the way she cares for him in a way others can't. it's the way they hold each other up. the intimacy. god the intimacy. the way the entire series is reason after reason for them not to work but they do and they do and they do. it's the way they have fun together. the way they pay attention when the other is talking. the heartbreak they've shared. and they're sexy together what can i say lol i was fifteen and the bisexuality was insistent af

caleo - i don't ship them in a way that is filled with more love than i have probably ever attributed to a notp. they just simply are not good for each other. they've both spent so long longing for another person to be their other half and.. i was just explaining this to @marimbles the other day, but i think it really comes down to something like the missing piece by shel silverstein. like they each found someone to fill in that gap but because that was the most important thing for so long, the achievement feels... off. and i think it they deserve to spend the time they do with each other because they both need to learn that life isn't about finding that missing piece. that there are people who will love them outside of romance, etc. i just don't think either of them are mature enough (yes, despite calypso's age--and don't get me started about that, because that alone should be enough of a reason not to ship them imo lol) at the point when they meet and fall in love to really sustain a relationship together. leo needs to learn to be vulnerable and in order to do that, he needs to be with someone he never had on a pedestal, even if that figure was once just the shape of her. calypso needs to be okay not being alone and in control, and i don't think she can do that with someone she met on her island when they were in a vulnerable state in need of her help.

leo/hazel/frank - honestly i haven't given much thought to this ship. i can totally see the draw, and i would read a fic about it, but tbh i've never been particularly compelled by any ship amongst these three (yes, even frazel, despite how cute they are. i'm just a slut for the greeks i think lol (and jason. jason is the exception bc he kinda toes the line))

valgrace - oh valgrace. i.. don't ship them. exactly. (i actually feel somewhat bitter toward this ship because of how thoroughly it's taken over the leo valdez tag lmao but that's neither here nor there) i really am at the end of the day a huge platonic shipper of these two, so that will always take precedent. but i will not lie... the tiktok edits i watch bc i like to be sad that are also tagged valgrace got me further into that side of the algorithm for awhile, and i'll give it my intrigue if nothing else. i respect it. i just love the connection they have, in the same way i love each of their connections with piper. and i think at the end of the day, i'd be happy with whatever shape that took. but also their friendship holds enough emotional weight in my heart that i don't think shipping them romantically would do anything more for me yk

valdangelo - fucking classic ship. absolutely i ship it how could i not. like the two loners? sun and moon who both have the complete opposite inside them? who needs solangelo fr (don't come for me pls its a joke.. kinda lol)

percethan - i ship it (hehe) you've turned me onto them fr. i have so little context besides being presented with the idea and casually seeing whatever you put on my dash for them, but somehow i have still found myself thinking about them (i think.. there was actually a song that made me think of them a bit ago that i wanted to share with you.. did i do that? did i forget?). as for why i ship them. mayhap just because you do 🙈 but also i think there's so much potential for complexity and nuance and angst (and just ethan accepting percy's care at all i mean)

jason!! as you saw in my previous ask from this game, i do ship him with piper (but also kinda not) outside of that ship tho.. i don't really think about him with anyone else much. i've never shipped him with reyna or nico, but i have appreciated both jasabeth and jercy at times. at the end of the day, his biggest ship for me has to be the platonic one he shares with leo <3

I was in a really, really shitty relationship for 4 years that changed almost everything about me. I was a shell of a human when it finally ended.

We broke up a year and a half ago and it’s been the most transformative 18 months of my life. At times it’s felt like some of the worst, but starting to remember who I am, even in the scary moments, has been one of the greatest journeys of my life. I feel like 14 year old me would be so proud.
