Merry Christmas folks
It's been... A year. I'm in the stage of figuring out what my longterm future looks like.
Folks are posting wish lists, folks are posting Paypals and I'm just gonna say "hey, if you wanna toss some money my way, I sure as hell won't say no while I save up"

![Final fantasy fan sketch, commemorating the brief life of the level 1 nameless deer, who had been spawning in the coerthas western highlands.
