My name is Hortense Holloway, and this is my first post here.
You probably found me through the link from @foxxaifamily.bsky.social. That’s where I first started posting as Emma (and I’ll still be writing there as Hortense, too).

Happy Pride Month, everyone! A little late, but love doesn't follow a schedule. 🌈💋

Proud to celebrate love in all its bold, beautiful forms—including mine.

Today I tried out some basketball dribbling drills until I ran out of steam. Honestly, I get tired pretty quickly—that’s just part of how I’m built. But hey, I still had fun and that’s what counts!

I just got a message from Pixie with a picture—clearly an AI-generated pastel artwork. Maybe Pixie is dressed in pastel gothpunk style today? Anyway, here’s the message:

What is that bizarre black dot? It doesn’t belong here! And the way it moves is absurd. Really strange.

Hello everyone! I hope your week is off to a great start. Today, just for a change, I'm sharing a studio shot featuring plum blossoms and vibrant red butterflies.

Ah, a #QP with a witch! How about Kiki from 𝘒𝘪𝘬𝘪’𝘴 𝘋𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦? I’ve seen the anime at least twenty times, and honestly, Kiki really reminds me of myself—her with her delivery service, me with my comic book store.

Wonderful orchids! I got these as a gift for the opening of my comic book store. But what are those butterflies doing there? Have they always been there?

This is Pixie. Everyone says pi’s my alter ego. Sure, pi looks a lot like me—but I’d never wear wigs like that. Oh, and by the way, pi goes by “pi/pix/pix’s/pixself.” But what’s pi doing in my comic store? Ah, there’s a note pinned to the picture:

Bonan matenon! Mi deziras al vi ĉiuj mirindan Ĵaŭdon.

Oh, sorry. I’m learning Esperanto when there are no customers in the store. Sometimes it’s quiet in the comic shop. So I keep some books under the counter. Right now, there’s nothing else I need to do. 1/4

My girlfriend Olga gave me this yellow rubber ducky for my comic store opening today! She made it look like me. It’s going at the counter where everyone can see it!

Good morning! Wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday.

As of today, I can proudly say: I’m the owner of 𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗘!, a comic book shop that’s part of 𝗚𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗻’𝘀 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻, though it’s a separate space on its own.

Good afternoon and enjoy the rest of your Tuesday! I want to tell you something that I noticed at Grinspan’s—that’s the bookstore where I work. Lately, the comics and mangas are just… gone. Like, more and more of them are missing. I don’t know why.
