About Me

Q- Tell me more about your two characters on the front page!
A- They're my Pokésona, Runa El Blue and my Fire Emblem sona, Kiran Eclat Cipher. They're self inserts, nothing too ground breaking. Runa also has a Mystery Dungeon design that's a Quilava and Galarian Linoone crossbreed! Her partner is Aaron the Lucario, who is cross-bred with a Blaziken.

Q- If Kiran and Runa are sonas, why is their skin tone so much darker than yours?
A- In-Universe answer: It's a tan!
Out-of-Universe answer: Runa's skin has always been color picked from the "middle" tone in Pokémon. That got much, much darker between X & Y and Sun & Moon. I thought the SM skin tone went better with her color scheme overall, so I kept it. (Also, this pretty much matches my IRL skin tone when I have a tan. I'm just never outside so I look like a vampire 98% of the time lol)
Their untanned skin tone is color picked from the Summoner's artwork in FEH!

Q- Why do Runa and Kiran have such different hairstyles?
A- Well, about every two years I donate my hair. My hair goes from long to short to long, so I've had both of those hair styles!

Q- Do you have a Facebook account?
A- Yes, but it's not going to be linked here. It has my full name on it, where I went to high school, family member's names, pictures of my face, ect. It's only for peole I know in real life.
(Also, I haven't really used it since 2016...)

Q- Do you have any pets?
A- Yes! I have a Cockatiel named Petey that I got in 2008, and a bunch of rescue cats that I got between 2010 and 2019. I'm trying to find homes for most of the newer ones, though! My Mom also owns a bunch of ducks and chickens that are named pets but I don't take care of myself.
I also had a doggo until early 2019, when he passed away at age 16...
He was a good boy.

Q- What are your hobbies?
A- Video games, mostly! I also love reading, but when I pick up a book I can't put it down or even sleep until it's finished so I try not to do that unless I have a full day to kill. My record is an 800 page novel (small print) in 20 hours! I also love learning anything and everything about animals and mythology- I have so much useless trivia in my brain lol

Q- What are your favorite video games?
A- My top 15 would have to be:
15- The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
14- Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness

As for some animals I don't like...
Terrier dogs (Not like, in general. I've had two and they're really high energy I just don't want to ever own another one.)
Normal Pugs & other over-bred dog breeds
Rabbits (Again, just as a pet for me. They're fine otherwise. I had a Holland Lop that died of cancer when I was a kid...)
Ticks, fleas, mosquitos, gnats, flies
Worms (Earthworms are ok... in the ground. Away from me.)
Praying Mantis
Brown Recluse Spiders
Stargaser fish, Angler fish, Eels (Scary! Scary!)

Q- How about favorite spoopy monster designs? >:3
A- I've got a few of those too~

Q- What fanwork have you done that you're the most proud of?
A- Definitely my Yu-Gi-Oh! fanfics, Smile and The Unending Game trilogy. In terms of my artwork, as of April 2020 it's my Chimera/Lao from November 2018, my redesign of Jump Force Kaiba from June 2019, and Priest Seto from May 2020!

• I got fanart for The Unending Game and every time I see it I get teary!!!

Q- You mentioned wanting to open commissions in the summer of 2019, what happened?
A- God nerfed me lol
Ok, so I've not made it a secret that I'm physically disabled. One of the big reasons for that (not the only one, but I'm not putting my full medical history on here) is because I have a condition called Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. The good news, I have one one of the less dangerous types so I'm not gonna like... die. The bad news, as of 2019 at the ripe old age of 22, I developed arthritis in my right thumb and wrist. I've only managed to finish one or two pictures a month since then because of the pain, and I have to rest my hand for a long time afterwards. It doesn't make typing very fun either...
I was hoping to go to college and go in a professional direction with either my artwork, writing, or both, so for right now I'm trying to figure out what to do with my future...
Currently, I'm working on getting disability.

Q- What is the "Navarre Collection?"
A- I set out in 2018 to collect every single piece of official merchandise in the world featuring Navarre from Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem. See, I'm not like "other" elitist pre-Awakening FE fans. I started playing Fire Emblem in 2009, got a massive crush on a character that only spoke in one chapter, and have maintained a constant level of thirst for over a decade.
"It'll be fine," I thought.
"He's a minor character from one of the least liked FE games. How much official merchandise could there be?"
Well, turns out he's popular in Japan. :P
(He's also Daddy Sakurai's favorite FE character!)
I'm over $300 in and having regrets but I've gone way too far to turn back now!!!
The collection on Google Drive is where I store my scans! I have pictures from artbooks that can't be found anywhere else on the web- I even have a little-known full manga chapter starring Navarre!
I also have a Library section with transcriptions of almost every line he's ever said, stat sheets from his appearances in the main games, spinoffs and FE Cipher, a raw and subbed recording of the second episode of the anime, a fully-voiced recording of the BSFE chapter he featured in, sprite sheets, ripped models, voice lines in both English and Japanese, and more!
Am I insane? Obsessed? Thirsty as hell? Probably all of the above!
