I'm saving up rubies for any Octopath 0 characters that might come to CotC now, and I've finally got over 800 again. It might not sound like much, but to someone like me, it's a lot. 🙂

So... I may have written a new fic...
It's an Octopath 0 fic: a hurt/comfort, whumpy genfic, and it's clear that I'm a bit rusty, but I'm writing again and that's what counts!

And there we go! Another Octopath 0 fic posted, this time featuring Celsus and Pius, along with Phenn and Saoirse. Another status effect fic from me, and it really is interesting to see how these two would interact in such a situation.🙂

I did finally manage to beat Baal Airy Ex3, though. That’s something!

What a day. I'm so tired, and I could really use a hug!
But it's over, and I can have a rest now. Still feeling out of sorts, mood-wise, but hopefully everything will sort itself out and it'll be a better evening.

Had some free time on this busy day, so I finished up these fights, too. Things like this are perfect for me to distract myself from events, so I tend to throw myself into them as soon as I can.

Well, that wasn’t too painful. Got the new accessory and I’ve already put it to good use.

It's the busiest day of the week, I slept poorly, and I've woken up feeling really down again. January is really hard on me, as usual.
On top of everything else, I feel invisible and unimportant...
Oh well. I need to get over myself, I suppose. There's to much to do today.

Ooh, it's the Live a Live collab rerun this week in Octopath CotC. I don't want any of the characters or their upgrades, but the accessory from that cascade battle... I'd like that! 💜

Night night sweet dreamies
The most underrated act of kindness is letting people be
Let them mispronounce a word, talk too much about a show they love,
or get excited about something
you don’t understand
Everyone’s got something that lights them up
Let them shine

Tempted to resume my challenge from last year of trying to beat as many bosses as possible with the CotC8. The only question is whether or not to allow EX versions, or just keep to the originals.
