welp. hopefully that pageant doesn't end with a war and a man struggling to get home for 20 or so years after said war 🙂

One run I had that felt absolutely busted was one that started with a Stellaron buff, where their bond actions could be triggered earlier, then build Bloodflame. Blade was DESTROYING EVERYTHING that run lmao. Key characters besides him were Mydei, Castorice, Hyacine, Evernight, and Silver Wolf.

FINALLY HIT THE FINAL RANK IN CURRENCY WARS!!!!

......but I do still have more levels to earn so my endless run continues lmao

THE PIXELS FROM BEING SCALED DOWN M,ADE PHAINON LOOK LIKEW HE'S SMILING, YES THANK YOU MORE OF THIS PLEASEE

Oh, one final note actually cuz I realized this after going to bed: when I said earlier that only the Kremnoan Detachment survived....I didn't mean the *entire* detachment, like with the refugees in game. I just meant Mydei and his Right Hand Men. Survivors are in the single digits, for Extra Pain.

idk why bsky wants to keep uploading gifs as videos but w/e. big phaidei energy

also runner up gif cuz I spent way too long deciding between the two

everything reminds me of them
November 25, 2025 at 4:27 AM
anyway, this was all fueled by one tiny detail in a piece of promoted fanart that could easily be missed if the resolution is too small. Mydei has a necklace with a tag that appears to say "Gorgo", and like...man really loves his mom and lives up to the title of Son of Gorgo 😭💕

god damn these Chrysos Heirs got me rambling on and on like
November 24, 2025 at 12:15 PM
had a few runs since this, still no Red Gem Phainon, but this came up on the run after the one above. No Phainon, but Mydei wanted to make sure he is properly geared up at least XD
November 24, 2025 at 11:01 AM
still addicted to Currency Wars, and this came up during a supply phase and made me feel things

now I just need Phainon to roll in with the Red Gem to fuel that "red and blue make the perfect ship" agenda lol

...ya know... in retrospect, I shouldn't be too surprised that I can find what feels like inspiration from FFXIV in Star Rail's story. cuz when looking through my screenshots, I was reminded that this line exists in HSR. Literally even in the same order as "Hear, Feel, Think". FFXIV fans spotted
November 11, 2025 at 3:40 PM
my comparisons to FFXIV while I play Star Rail continue it seems. Instantly thought of Ardbert's iconic line.
"We did everything right, yet still...STILL it came to this!"
November 11, 2025 at 3:28 PM
Again, for those unaware, Manato Mindscape art for reference. First one is M3, meaning you got 3 extra copies of the character, and second is M6, so 6 copies. For those who play Genshin or Star Rail, they're this game's Constellations or Eidelons.

Anyway, Sy's turn soon!

Seriously the page made it look like it would come with the frame, and there was no "frame sold separately" warning ANYWHERE, and it makes no sense to only have it listed with Victoria Housekeeping's cards*. This merch launch was super messy and disorganized.

Pictured: page vs what I got
November 11, 2025 at 5:47 AM
fuck it, take a quick cropped wip of their concept page with a closeup of their eye

I'm actually thinking of making one or both of their ears cocked, still need to sketch it out and see how I feel about it

anyway, this is Kai Maera (they/them), my most recent brain child
October 28, 2025 at 9:21 PM
anyway, my ZZZ OC has been a huge help in giving my brain a break from......everything going on irl right now. and I know that probably no one cares, cuz it's hard for any OCs to get any attention, but idc I'm having fun and will ramble away about them anyway one of these days
October 28, 2025 at 9:05 PM
Wait hold up, I never shared my (SUPER rough) concept sketch/note page for ZZZ AU Sy'vyn???

Welp, here ya go

Forgive the mistakes and my shitty handwriting, I mainly worked on this when stuck at red lights while working ^^;;;;;
September 19, 2025 at 4:59 AM
oh right, also this happened

on my first 10 pull of the sumeru event banner

....note that these two are the ones I've been most curious about over the years (besides Baizhu cuz I got him), and I got both in my first 10 pull cuz one was a "failed" 50/50

..........i will never be this lucky again
September 17, 2025 at 1:54 AM
I don't wanna elaborate cuz of spoilers and I'd rather folks experience HSR's Amphoreus saga on their own if they can (seriously this story is peak), but......iykyk.

If you know HSR but don't know the song/FFXIV...look it up/play FFXIV. If you know the song but not HSR.....go play HSR
September 17, 2025 at 1:20 AM
.....oh no. ...oooooh no.
Guys I think I have a new fave that's gonna keep me in Genshin longer than expected o-o
September 12, 2025 at 1:14 AM
LET'S GOOOOO
September 8, 2025 at 10:13 PM
Me: trying hard to fall asleep cuz my insomnia has gotten so bad that I'm currently at 30-ish hours without sleep and I need to go to work today and get paid

My ADHD brain refusing to shut up and let me rest:
September 6, 2025 at 1:10 PM
Can I offer y'all a ballpoint pen doodle of Manato that I've been doodling in my little notepad at work in these trying times?
August 31, 2025 at 2:16 AM
Bonus: honorable mention to my other minion choice (it was such a hard decision, I love them both)

Plus, a silly little blooper. nom nom
