About me:

I’m trans, gay, in my 30s, and I just do all of this for fun. I’m not a professional artist or writer, I’m just passionate about both and get a lot of joy out of creating.  

I’ve been pretty consistently drawing fanart and writing fanfic for TES since around early 2019. I have met a lot of really amazing people in this fandom and made some of the best friends of my life. I love it here and I’m not going anywhere. 

If you’re a minor, don’t talk to me. Sorry it has to be that way. If I’ve blocked you, don’t take it personally. I’m gunshy to drama these days and if your vibes are even slightly off, I block on sight.

Hahaha damn the Teldryn hate in my inbox is real! It's not his fault he was given six lines to repeat over and over again. We can't all be Baldur's Gate characters with 100 different branching trees of dialogue options. Some of us girlies have one (1) thing to say about each city we go to and you should consider yourself lucky for that.

hell yeah king I'm sure he agrees

I don't think he would, to be honest. Would you go out of your way to enter a dangerous pocket dimension that houses the trapped souls of the dead for someone you met once?

Now, if there were some kind of rescue mission involved, or if we want to headcanon that Teldryn and Jiub were actually much closer, then yeah absolutely.

Where are my Teldryn/Jiub shippers? I know there's at least one of you because I've read his unpublished Teldryn/Jiub/Nerevarine fanfic lol.

Thank you! I'd hardly call it flawless, but I appreciate the compliment regardless.

I did have two years of studio art training in college before switching majors. I was fortunate to have an incredibly skilled, though slightly terrifying figure drawing teacher. He was a Russian expat and ran his class a bit like a bootcamp. No music, no distractions. Just 3+ hours of meticulous live model drawing with him pacing back and forth behind us. And if you were fucking up, he'd come up behind you and say "give me your pencil" with a thick accent. Then he'd sit down and show you what you were doing wrong.

It was amazing, but I was also one of his favorite students. So I had a much better time than the people he didn't like. I pity those he didn't like.

All that to say, I'm still learning and improving. He taught me the foundations, and now I'm still building upon them. I think it took me about 6 years of consistent work to "get good" to the point that I felt really confident with my figure drawing. Most of high school and college. Now it's just about keeping up the practice.
