(Messaging here is ok too, but I'll be faster on Insta at the con)

You can add us to your schedule in Guidebook, and I'm available @ yescryptidcosplays on Insta if people have questions (trying to consolidate notifications) Or, just look for the Klavier with a guitar case and/or an inflatable guitar

Oh my godddd I'm finally posting this beast of a 13 chapter fic after four years. I'll link updates here. Please mind the warnings, but I hope people find it interesting :) I'll be updating it Fridays. Thank you @bringmoreknivez.bsky.social and Treasuredonut for beta reading :)

Please make sure to find your comfort sources this month and always, and if you already have, make sure to keep up with them. Things will get better, and if they're already good, that doesn't mean there isn't still room for more good.

I won't call everything perfect now. I still struggle with how some in the outside world view queerness, even from some people close to home. But I also have my lovely girlfriend, my friends, and a variety of ways to experess not just queerness, but all of me. I can still find comfort.

I also had close friends, both in and out of the community who I could rely on and relate to through the highs and the lows. These were both through my creations and fandoms and from the offline world, and they're arguably the most important part.

It took me a long time to find that comfort, through my OCs (from my previous pride arts) and comfort fandoms, where I could explore freely through my art, original fiction, and fanworks.

Figuring myself out has been a journey, and I don't think it will ever stop. From the time I realized I might be a little queer to settling on lesbian, it's been about a decade. Maybe that will change, and maybe it won't. But it's not about being right, it's about being comfortable.

Programs used: MediBang Paint, Photomosh, iMovie (yes... I fussed over individual frames in iMovie...)

Characters belong, of course, to the Ace Attorney franchise; this is a fanwork!

I've always admired big flashy animatics like this, and am happy I get to contribute to the fandom in this way -- It's so fun when you realize how well a song and its lyrics match another piece of work, so I'm excited to share my vision with you!
