"After all, you were made for each other."
There is no Moss without the Emperor, and no Emperor without Moss. They're both outcasts who found solace in the other's other-ness, they saved each other's lives and became each other's freedom & inspiration.
Moss loves being illithid. <3

Fandom needs interaction to thrive, if u want to keep enjoying art, fic, edits, animations, silly little hcs, and all of that gud stuff, give some of the love back that creators pour out for you, fandom shouldn't be /content/ to mindlessly consume, let it be a dialogue of love and appreciation 🙏✨❤️
I think a big fandom shift in interacting with stuff has gone from people commenting under the created thing whether it be fic or art to people linking it in private discord groups where the person who made it will never see any positive comments left on the thing they made.

Moss woke up with *the* migraine of all time...
But, hey, at least they woke up. And at least the Emperor was still there when they did, ready to help them enter this new chapter of life.
After some healing, the first thing they did was run off to fish their pal Us out of the harbor~ :'3

BG3 inspired me to pick up painting, & though I didn't get as much done this year as I wanted to, here's the pieces of my Tav I'm most proud of. I'd been purely an environment & pixel artist before, so being able to PAINT! My Character!!! in full! by myself! is just... huge to me. ; x;

Decay: as a necessary - a *healing* - part of life.
Everything rots eventually, providing sustenance for the new. Despair can, and *should*, be used as fuel to bloom into something better. If you're still alive, you're not too far gone, and you can still transform into your best self.

Moss's resolution is to make new friends!
Real friends, not work friends.
Most of their companions returned to their lives or moved away. It gets lonely, not having friends they can be their true self around, & they don't exactly want to lie about the whole 'being an illithid' thing... ;(

Please respect people's boundaries when it comes to their art, virtual photography, ships, gifs and everything in-between. All artists deserve that much, at least. It's not hard to do.

The tadpole. Not the first one, vicious & hungry, and not the astral one, cold & yearning, but the supreme one: as gentle & thoughtful as the hands that raised it & primed it to make Moss's transformation as smooth as possible.
It gave them the rebirth they'd so desperately longed for.

Moss is a Yule squiddie through & through, but in a modern, Earthy AU... they'd absolutely, completely unironically, be a sucker for 'All I Want For Christmas Is You.'

Same boat! ... :'(
Moss has a permanent spark of paranoia that the Absolute may not actually be well & truly dead, and that she's just hiding somewhere in the back of their mind, biding her time to strike & try to take over their body again.
Nothing terrifies them more than that.
