I think my feet (and the unknown time it takes for them to heal) have brought back my depressionn full force, so if I either get more whiny or less responsive, just know that I am truly, and sincerely sorry...

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I think I might have made my 23-day feet pain worse and no one in this dumb house is taking it as seriously as they would otherwise like to believe. I think she just wants her "little maid" back, ASAP, which.... Ngl, I'm trying so hard not to just give up and self destruct here.

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Asking for science (and out of salt for my mother's incessant overstepping), but for severe foot pain (both feet), what INDOOR footwear would any of you guys recommend?

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I can't shake the feeling that no matter what I do (or don't do), I'll always be inauthentic and fake, and not even because I want to be. How can I ever know for sure who or what I really, actually am, as both a person and a friend?

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Man, tfw you make a wild grammar hiccup in the midst of a thinking out loud sorta episode. I ain't retyping all that. Smh. >~<;;

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

So... Funny story, but I'm starting to wonder if I have this ongoing identity wound? Not in the sense of like, simple concepts like HOW I do, but the fact that... Everyone has an idea of me that isn't true to what I know of myself at my core. So much that I jump at the chance to better illustrate

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Sorry for the spill about an hour ago. I'll... be okay. You can't change the past, and you may not even get the closure you deserve... But you can fight for your future, and to once again be seen as you truly are, no traumatic lens necessary.

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

-sigh- Just another night where I remain haunted by actions I am simply and autistically not aware of, because no one was ever up front with me about that kind of thing and expected me to just "magically know" their boundaries. Even if I wanted to take full responsibility, I'm left in a position..

Gonna keep my complaints separate from the post this time, but it's such a shame that for even a small, not so detailed image, line quality and vibrance still both have to be wrecked in the same blow. Do better, bsky. 👎

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 14/08/2026

Does it ever sometimes get scary to show off a meaningful piece of yours to even a close circle of friends? I know I shouldn't be fretting too much. People have lives and are often busy. The anxiety is often hard to help though, much in thanks to how often people have simply walked away, before.

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

I think I'm having a bit TOO much fun with the character connections setup on ArtFight... Especially with my SF FCs. Sure, due to the type box limitations, the quality isn't my usual, but I'm sincerely hoping that it might spark ideas for passers-by in the future, y'know? ^^ Here's hoping. XD

010

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

Tfw character connection links on ArtFight can only fit *checks notes* 511 characters, punctuation and spaces included. Gee, THAT's oddly specific. XP 550 would have been more generous without overwhelming anything, imho. >FD;;

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Heh... Well that's a first. >FDc One of my less-focused on StarFox mains got their only attack yeeted into the void by an account deletion. (Guess you and Kamota-kitty are on equal footing again, now, huh Salamander? XP)

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Whew! What a relief! I found helpfor that ArtFight nonsense after all! I'm honestly truly grateful! QwQ Now to deeply apologize once more for the public meltdown. I need to keep those under... A little more control, let's just say. XwX;; So really, I'm sorry anyone hadto see or be put off by that.

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

This kind of meltdown and confusion happens EVERY year during ArtFight (usually over "prop" vs "scene" ratings), so if this unsettles anyone, I deeply apologize. I wish I didn't draw such confusing pieces sometimes. I never know what to do when no one's awake to be a 2nd set of eyes... Or a 3rd.

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Also, I find it strange that @artfight.net claims to have DMs "open for ArtFight-related questions only," but they are simply not open, whatsoever. ...Did they chicken out or what? Sooner I can rate my piece properly, sooner I can post it and take a well-earned break. 😭

000

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Internalized screaming as I realize I don't know what to rate a character in ArtFight between fullbody, halfbody (feet obscured), or simple-shaped character. Even more as I realize there's no one to direct this exact question to, late into these dang witching hours. .... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA >|,D;;;

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Dang, ngl, I have mini source of frustration over when something is abruptly cut off in an OST vid on YT. Beginning or end. Every time someone's posted SF2026's version of the Warp zone, notes being missing from the beginning is dang near 100% of the case.... Why even IS that? XwX;;

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

First, two fence fires a month ago. NOW? Seemingly spontaneous ceiling collapse in my Mom's bedroom. Guess I won't be getting my own room back for a good while longer.......... (Friendly reminder NOT to wish ill on people you don't like. Someone unrelated/innocent could be living with them.)

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

tfw your new comments have more tired energy than excited energy and you were honestly hoping to still carry the latter into all of that. I probably should take a break today. I can't believe I did this to myself.... <|,D;; Kinda don't want to though because I want to revenge AF attacks so bad rn.

010

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

-sigh- Next on my checklist... More grounding. A few more replies... Then some actual ArtFight work. If anyone knows how many seconds I should wait between sending comments, I'm all ears! I'm not repeating the same mistake twice, at risk of a mental regression like that. Absolutely NOT!

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

Okay, I admit it, I'm a salty, whiny, hypersensitive crybaby and I deserve NO friends for the way I act. Just ignore me, please, for your sanity. I beg you... I've never regressed so hard in a long time, and it's showing in such a way that would push about anyone FAR, far away....

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 04/07/2026

"You're commenting too quickly, please slow down" AT LEAST HAVE THE DECENCY TO SAVE MY FORM FILLING, PLEASE TO HECK WITH RETYPING ALL THAT!!!! Can't stop hating myself for forgetting anything I wanted to say and now ALL JOY HAS BEEN SUCKED OUTTA ME. Good job, 11/10, would do again @artfight.net

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Thinking of my character, Makal, and how she MIGHT appear in the SF 2026 style... May or may not be onto something (unlike my struggle with what a Klawzorian would look like, haha. XD)

Two, messy MS Paint doodles of a tall and slender anthropomorphic bird with a delicate beak, fluffy/long tail feathers, and (not least importantly) "proper bird legs." her feathers ease up into a ponytail-hairstyle shape, instead of her having a full head of feathered hair simply decorated with said ponytail. It's not a colored doodle by any means, but Makal, here is a VERY multi-colored bird, and I hope that reflects in the next attempt...

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 29/06/2026

Speaking OF that Avaika piece from days ago... I decided I'd draw one of these for my sister, @lonelywindofstars.bsky.social, too! Here's her StarFox FC, Amethyst Frog! ^^

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

Thinking about how absolutely CURSED Klawzorians (fanmade space-alien species) would look in the StarFox 2026 style is absolutely sending me rn. >X,D;; Would it even actually WORK!? <X,D

Late night/Early morning Avaika scribble. I need to stinkin' SLEEP, dangit! >X,D;;

A head shot or bust shot of a long-haired, noseless, fox-like space-alien sporting a smug or challenging grimace. Their hair, eyes, and ears are a reddish color, their fur and inner ear floofs are a cinnamon brown, and they are wearing purple and blue clothing topped off with a red, long-tailed bandanna-scarf loosely hung around their neck. They are against a gradient backdrop that fades from a darker blue down to black.
(The space alien depicted is a fan-made StarFox character/former "self-insert" known as Avaika Katrina, from Planet Klawzora (not pictured).)

LRP(s): Better safe than sorry. While these could already read as obvious scam attempts to many, warning those few who could be caught off-guard is absolutely necessary. Please stay safe out there and leave the page entirely if you see this on ANY website.

You know, I know I shouldn't, but sometimes I wonder what kind of a person I am. It's a strange question to ask oneself, yes, but it sure beats my crippling lack of self awareness at times, doesn't it? We all need to step back and reflect now and again... but... am I overdoing it?

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 04/06/2026

To whoever out there might be wishing me or anyone I love ILL, just STOP. This ends NOW. I've had TWO fires happen close to my home, 6h apart! I fear for my 30 years of artwork, and I'm THIS CLOSE to losing my marbles to a possible hyper-vigilance that won't allow me to rest easy at night. AT ALL.

One of the things that sucks about migraine postdrome (so like... AFTER the debilitating attack) is how vague a time it can be. From how long it lasts to whether or not a migraine is gonna bounce back into being to torment you another day, should you misstep.

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

I seem to be having a prolonged anxiety episode and I kinda just wanna apologize for that. No one should have to deal with those things, even secondhand. Everything I poured out the past few days comes from a place that has yet to truly heal in any capacity, and I take full responsibility for it.

010

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

Anxiety bites.... I might have once more opened up a bit much in a conversation, not long ago, and I seem to be paying the price for it in a deafening silence. Hopefully one that doesn't take three years to realize just how much I messed up again, but not in what exact ways.

100

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

Man, keeping myself grounded in reality is harder than I remember from recent time. Either that or I'm just having... a DAY... I'll be fine, though. I gotta be. It was so much worse back then, and I'm just trying my best not to regress here, dangit.

110

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 23/05/2026

If anyone saw me get a bit too introspective out loud late last night/early this morning, rest assured, I'm okay for right now. It's in my nature to question a lot of things, especially as related to the past and my slow mental growth, but I need to remember to ground myself and live in the moment.

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

Yikes, you just know your night is gonna be a long (and lonely) one when you pop "how to heal the deep psychological injury of being misperceived constantly" into the search bar. ...What am I even DOING at this hour??

AvaikaofStarfox @avaikaofstarfox.bsky.social · 07/05/2026

If anyone's worried about me, I'm fine now. It's just gonna take some time to gather my thoughts again. Heck, maybe even a day. Just for safety reasons. X,D;; I hope people are as excited as I am to see StarFox's grand return, even if unexpected in many a way. QwQ Now more than ever, it's needed.

Don't you just love it when everything (especially everything nice) you wanted to say got irretrievably deleted due to a tech difficulty and you never want to try doing so again because it will turn out too different and far less understood? Yeah, me too. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hot dang, I think I might have to take a hiatus before I'm spoiled silly on a certain fox's "guest appearance". I'm lucky I generally know how to scroll fast, but eventually, that won't be enough to save me. Big yikes!! QwQ;; Woe, to be super busy at a time like this to go see it personally. <|,D;;

Guess what stayed up for an entire year! X,D Happy 33rd, StarFox!!! Here's hoping it's your turn to shine again, soon... ~<3 I believe, truly, that day WILL come...

A decoratively-stylized "Happy 33rd STARFOX" is written with dry-erase marker on a white board. It is properly labeled with the date (February 21, 2026) on the fox tail created by the X in "STARFOX." The entire display is littered in colorful stars, and in the upper right corner is a tiny Arwing flying into view. Everything else on the board existed before this drawing, and is unrelated, so those will remain undescribed (Props to those who can decipher the Krazoa handwriting below, though).

Dang, thinking about Missions 9 and 10 so intricately like this is making me sob, so dang much, and once again, I've reminded myself one of the many reasons as to why I love StarFox: Assault so, SO much right now. Though short, so much love and thought was put into it, and it leaves so much room
