Rereading some of TtLW, including some scenes that I felt pretty dissatisfied with at the time of writing, and going “shit, this is kind of good actually. And directly to my tastes!”

Now if only I could magically gain that fresh view with the scenes I’m currently working on… 😂

@quoth143 : I don’t know who’s letting these two cook for them unsupervised, but it’s probably not gonna end well. Thanks for the prompt!

Linast with his sibling/counterpart, Phosa.

[Image description: A traditional pen illustration of Phosa and Linast attempting to cook something with eggs and flour. Phosa sits cross-legged on the counter, frowning down at a cook book; Linast leans over and gives the cookbook an equally skeptical look, flour trailing from one hand. End ID.]

Side note: The fun thing with Phosa and Linast’s manifestations is that they... can’t really get dirty? They’re basically telekinesis with a lightshow attached, so there aren’t any of the normal forces that make things stick to actual physical objects. And even if there were, all they’d have to do is de-manifest and make a fresh manifestation.

Similarly with the core — while it is a physical object, unlike their manifestations, Linast can always phase or teleport it to clean it.

I did a few small watercolor paintings while camping last weekend! This one was inspired more by my longing for colder weather than by any of the scenery, ahaha. I do love how the colors turned out, though; I might paint the same scene again on a larger canvas if I find the time.

Art Fight 2024 | 10 - Misdirected Arrival

My final attack was a revenge on @heylinfanclub following his group attack on me! All the character interactions this year made me smile, and so I really wanted to respond in kind for this last attack. I'm glad I managed to finish in time, thanks to the extension!

Diamond has come to release the clan from holding in one of the Spire's gate rooms -- and is now 1) trying to appear as non-threatening as a 6-foot-and-change-tall human can, 2) taking a moment to process Smoke's survival, and 3) lamenting the Spire's fresh capture of several new people. 

The cats have mixed feelings about all of this, hah. They were trying to get home, but instead have found themselves in freshly strange surroundings.

Art Fight 2024 | 7 - Other resources

Another revenge on @heylinfanclub! Featuring their character Datura and my character Smoke interacting within their alien setting. Smoke has been trying to investigate ways to get home or to improve their current circumstances, and Datura is much more familiar with the resources of the vivary...

Art Fight 2024 | 6 - What sharp teeth you have...

Another revenge on @ausp-ice! :) This one features my character Diamond (in his original body) and their character Self during a meeting in Clemcy's home.

I have many ideas about this interaction, but most of what it boils down to is that Self, Diamond, and Clemcy all have goals and personalities that I think might synergize in interesting ways at this point in their lives, hah.
