I never want to stop building and creating. For my friends, for my viewers, for everyone who has made me who I am. Creating is the place I am happiest. When I know I make just one person smile it makes the hard days worth it. I want to be remembered by the smiles I’ve brought others someday!

Days go by and as time passes there are weeks where I don’t think of my birth family. I miss them sometimes, but then I remember everything they did. Been thinking of changing my last name at some point. I gotta think of something that defines the legacy I want to leave behind.

13. I always have loved birds and my favorite bird pokemon for a while has been Corviknight. I adore corvids irl and Corviknight filled that hole in my heart.

12. As a kid I was not immune to using legendaries on the team, and Cobalion was my boy. Taught me that the power of swords dance and sacred sword was a fierce combination. I also love his story in the anime and games.

11. Back to nostalgia from my BW days. Mad lad was my only counter to Elesa (and Krookodile). Earned his place on my team despite his weaknesses.

10. Okay this should’ve been number 2 or 3 but I went with more personally historically significant. Alcremie is beautiful and I wish there was more casual aspects outside of fighting like competitions and pokestar studios again so I could show her off in a manner that suits her.

9. My beloved. Was never the best member on my team during Black and White but I loved him and his speed none the less. Man I should play BW again.

8. This lad was a carry in legends arceus, legends ZA, and my TCG pocket teams. I adore him and his ability to speeeeeeed

7. I’m very partial to dragon types, and a dark dragon is no exception. Evolves late but when he does he’s a monster in the endgame.

6. Speaking of Colosseum my goat who I will always have on my team. Queen of getting away with everything in the Orre dex

5. An absolute powerhouse and I think the BW legends (especially Kyurem and his fused forms) are extremely underrated.

4. I love all Ninetails, but the Galar one is so majestic and feminine I love her so much.

3. Obligatory Eeveelution <3. Absolutely adore Umbreon ever since I saw it in Pokemon Colosseum!

2. My first partner pokemon! I do love Oshawott and the entire line, both Hisuian and standard. Pokemon White was my first Pokemon game as a kid.

Empress 🦊 @ PAX West @astralempress.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

1. Going so to Zoroark first! I’ll use both forms so I don’t just use fox types the whole way down. Genuinely one of the best Pokemon ever created both aesthetically and story wise.

Zero Mission was an illuminating process in the weirdest ways to use speed boost and shinespark, and I’ve beaten dread several times.

Down to the wire! Let’s finish up Zero Mission! If we finish early we might play some Uma 👀

You asked I answer! Chat voted so we replay Metroid Zero Mission as the game of choice! Come hang out! www.twitch.tv/Astral_Empress

It turns out the key to getting Metroid to sell more was to make Samus Aran more publicly appeal to lesbians. Dread being trending on the EShop rn is a beautiful sight.

My personal self red flag is that I think homestuck is genuinely a phenomenal piece of media and that most of the fanbases “errors” have either been proven to be fake stories or gross exaggerations of fandom culture. It’s got flaws I will never deny it but it has its place in my heart.

$700 dollars it cost us to get it back there goes the savings… again… If anyone can spare 50-100$ to soften the blow we need all the help we can get.

If anyone is ever able to help my situation it’s always appreciated. I want to work hard to make people smile like I have a passion for doing, but I have to recognize that healing means sometimes I have to prioritize myself. So if you can help make things easier please help. gofund.me/4254b94b5

Everyday gets a little better but when I returned all my stuff was left in Oklahoma. My clothing and my memories some of which can never be replaced. That’s why the boxes are so important. That’s why I vanished from everyone’s lives for a year.

Empress 🦊 @ PAX West @astralempress.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

This was the single most traumatizing thing that’s ever happened to me. I lost 35 pounds (155 to 120) and didn’t get to return home until late April. Since then I’ve been taking steps to rebuild but I need to be adult enough to realize I shouldn’t hold what happened back.

Empress 🦊 @ PAX West @astralempress.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

You know what someone told me to be transparent so I will be: Warning ahead. During last October I was trafficked into the United Kingdom and rendered unable to leave due to the actions of two individuals. During this time I lost everything. My entire savings, my job, my old home.

Empress 🦊 @ PAX West @astralempress.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Anyways on a side note I’m glad PAX was good. We somehow managed to relatively break even on funding and hold to our tight budget since our budget was based around our birthday budgets. I’m still hyper stressed about getting my remaining boxes shipped from OKC but at least I have another shirt now!

Irregardless of my middling feelings on the direct I will support the game for two reasons: 1. I Really want more standard 3D Zelda games in the OoT format 2. Sheik

I like the look of the Zelda game, my biggest worry right now is that they are trying to keep the game faithful to the point that it ends up just being a pretty looking ocarina of time again. #NintendoDirect

Great games all around. Highlights for the event were definitely Belmont’s Curse and Madjack Vs Magic (a very good UTDR style rouguelike). Ace Combat 8, Rebounder, The Void Rains Upon Her Heart, and Cinderia were also great highlights! #PAXWest
