3.09 is up! We had a few weeks of hiatus because I was moving, but we should be back to the regular update schedule now.

This chapter also brings the Yuuka poster (by @grimmjeow.bsky.social as usual). Look respectfully!
Yuuka (Radiance Heliotrope) is scantily clad in a short black dress, fishnets everywhere, and way too many belts, in a chuuni pose with her hand over her eye.

3.08 is live! Sorry for the wider gaps between chapters lately, I'm extraordinarily busy. Should resolve soon, and I'll talk more about it when it does. In the meantime, enjoy a chapter!

Arc 3 now has an official cover, courtesy of @togekk0.bsky.social! She did a fantastic job on all the little details, and made Ezzen SO cute.
Ezzen is sitting in his PC's chair, weaving his Flame with a frustrated expression. On the monitor next to him is a GWalk diagram of a "vitruvian magical girl", including a small symbol of Ez's spear. On the walls behind the monitor are posters of the lexicon of glyphs, Hina, and the Spire. Also on his desk are a half-eaten Famichiki and a Spire mug. Ezzen is very cute.

...bc yeah, THIS.
Tumblr post by user kalira , dated Oct 20, 2024: I say this very gently and with much love, and I say it not only as a writer myself but as someone who has been privy to many 'but how can they not know that work is amazing! 1 love it! I gushed about it to every friend I have and recced in x, y, z servers and [...]' The writer or artist doesn't know this. They have no way of knowing that you found their work beautiful and lifechanging or even just a bright spot on a bad day or that you think about it every day or that you told all your friends about it, and those things are great but we have no way of knowing them! You may not be doing it intentionally, but you're excluding the writer or artist from the community feeling of fandom that you are carrying on (that is so great! fandom is a community! continue to talk and play!) even with their work. Please, please just drop a line even that is "oh gosh I absolutely love this work, I screamed to every one of my friends about it when I first read/saw it!" even if you don't have the spoons to share more of the specifics that made you flail at your friends or what you said in private. (Though if you do, we will love you forever for it.)
