@sunsetaria.bsky.social is a wonderful witch who conjures the best things into existence and this has had me cackling for days.
Dev, extra noodly, sketched onto a long and winding bed that goes over and over itself in a serpentine pattern to accommodate their tail.

Behold: the star of HOT RACC SUMMER, hot off the 'child prodigy to 30-something queer burnout' pipeline, Buyou~! Four feet and change tall, this lil' copycat cutie is a revamp of one of my oldest characters, adoringly rendered by @sunsetaria.bsky.social <3
Buyou! A raccoon character with blond hair rendered on a sketch page with four poses-- one has him stretching and drinking from a waterbottle after a workout, another has him in profile with his arms crossed looking tired. The third has him waving over his shoulder, walking away with a duffel bag slung over it, and the last has him ready for a fight.

My favorite quickdraw I've ever done
A screenshot of a chat with friends, with a linked article talking about the death of the creator of the GIF. My response is "He's pronounced dead" followed by handful of incredulous reactions

Super Momdroid: Dinner with Friends! A metroidvania-esque cooking game, where you have to acquire new ingredients and recipes to reach new challenges in preparing dinner for friends! Elsewise, you are attacked by the Momdroids, and turned into a droned housewife, oh no!

Fungeon Crawler! A classic fantasy dungeon dive that descended on the financial district. The locals had to head down and defeat the nefarious mob bankers and access the dragon's hoard. Dev was in this one! They won.

Grabbed by the Girlies - A horror themed rhythm fashion game. The players chose this one-- you had to fight to the beat and fashionably to impress Sasha Malone, the fashion-icon-turned-litch that was the boss of the encounter.

"Feline Fantasy 7" was based off a bit in a story I started and didn't finish. It's FF7 but everyone's cute cat people. "This one's for bikes!"

I've been thinkin' of old characters again and chatting with @sunsetaria.bsky.social (who did this rad art, of course), and now it's time to put in for 'Well, Buyou's easily in his thirties at this point, lets vibe'. Gifted kid trauma pipeline will have some ~influence~

It's Saturday morning, which means time to walk the wolf girl~! @sunsetaria.bsky.social continues to always manifest the best versions of things I imagine, and I am *entirely* incapable of being normal about this. Delightedly indulgent *and* worldbuilding relevant? Same thing for me~
Wolfdragon Dev in five poses~! Top left has them in a collar smiling at the viewer, then a sketch of them chomping on their own, long tail after catching it. Top right is them in a full, cheerful run.

Bottom left is her rolling on her back, and bottom right is the centerpiece shot with them lounging and chewing on one of their own broken-off antlers.

Every time I've run an SCRPG session has been a hoot, but there is the ever-building gag of 'if Hail runs a tabletop oneshot, we have to fight Dev' that has become self fulfilling. The last possible twist from last oneshot, the long hot "well it'll be funny but won't happen" (it happened):

Happy #Devcember! I think I'm either going to do a short/flash story a day for the month, or when schedule doesn't permit I'll post a snip from something else ongoing for the sake of sharing. For now, bask in the wonder of @sunsetaria.bsky.social's wonderfully rendered peppermint Dev. <3

Playing through Deltarune with @ganelon.bsky.social is one of my favorite memories of the year, and the amount of times we went "Ralsei is *just Dev*" is essentially uncountable. Thus, this was ~required~! "Shocking someone back to life is just healing magic on delay." 🎨: @sunsetaria.bsky.social!

Name your sessions, it's fun! There's been so many smaller arcs. And bards causing *terrible trouble* for the party, as they should, hah.

100 Sessions into one of my current long games as of last night! Each session usually has a quote (Usually a rule left by the party's old mentor), some dialogue, a myth, etc. Just over three years, too! Here's last night's old dialogue from the mentor, and the playlist for their battle! #d&d
"The key to any skill is practice, Lhoryn. You know that— you swing that axe day after day, you fight, you live, you get better. Someone paints, sings, sails— whatever it is, you do it over and over.
Anything and everything, you learn by trying. I can tell you I'm doing better with this little family we've got going than my first, or my kids after. Not all the same skills— you bite less than my boy did growing up, cheeky shit— but you learn to keep folk close.
Then with the big things— the stuff you can't imagine beating? The way the old-blood nezumi breathe down your neck, right or wrong, and want to change you and your folk— that's a thing you look at and go 'well, how do I fight that?' You're good at fighting, you're a great gnoll— pretty sure, at least, eh? Hah— got a good head on your shoulders. You've practiced killin' folk, bastards and not alike, so it doesn't even matter if they're right or wrong, those old rats.
They're in your way, castin' a long damn shadow. How do you kill something that's your whole horizon? When an injustice sits heavy on your chest and squeezes the air out— too big for you to lift off, boy— what then?

(Cont. on next image.)
Well, you get like folk with you. Like improves like— reeds in a bundle over a single one. You stand a little taller, even when some fall away. Keep 'em close. Hold a shield high, if you're being a knight about it, and protect them. Then you practice— you find a smaller injustice, a petty tyrant. One rat who spits on your path— you beat him with words or your hands, and he learns or others do. You get better.You practice. The little bastards get bigger— a guard captain. A hero. A king. On and on and on. You get better at it, you make sure that even if you stumble, you've taught the other reeds. There's new grass growing absent some shadow, thanks to you. You nurture things that grow up behind you, you hold that shield high, and you cut them down. The reeds become the sickle.
Then one day, you'll realize you don't have to look up at that thing that took up all your vision. You won't even meet it at eye level.
Your horizon has to look up at you. Do you understand?
Good. Come on, let's get back to the others— see about that job lookin' for those young ones that went missing."

Playlist for session, six tracks:
You Practice
And Practice
You Never Stop
You Get Good at It
And One Day
The Horizon Looks Up at You

We have a second go at this, using @sunsetaria.bsky.social's dolls: @ruthredmane.bsky.social did these absolutely fucking *banging* designs? I cannot overstate how cool these are, and Ruth is, as ever, a fucking wonder to work with. ... I need to go shopping.
Five fashion drawings of Dev.

First pose: On left, left hand on hip, grey half-jacket with belts across its equator, a high collar, and a gold buckle. Geometric seams, and dangling straps at the side. Pants have cut-out outer thighs, hanging loops, and similar patterning with a low-cut waist under another gold-buckle belt.

Second: Black collar, Cheekface black band hoodie with green and yellow logo, dragonskull leggings, and a red flannel shirt around their waist hanging down. Left hand on hip, front facing.

Third Pose: Facing away, to the left, back towards viewer with left forearm rested along hip. Cowled halter top in black with bands of toxic neon green. Same color green on bands on tail, stripes on stockings, edge of a short pleated skort, and tufts of fur at the ankles and bottom of the leggings of the skort.

Fourth pose: Both hands on hips, front facing. Jeans, burgundy belt, bright magenta, long-sleeved, ruffled shirt with collar. Baby pink vest over it, gold choker, bangle on left wrist, and ring on left middle finger and right pinky. Silver ring on right index and left ring finger. Ruffled tail band with same baby-pink, wide band around it.

Fifth pose: Sitting, legs crossed at the calves, with right hand in lap as pose faces left. Purple, swirl-patterned hoodie with light patterns and marks of star-like glitter. Black to navy blue leggings with same glitter effect. Hood up. The cube Dev is sitting on has place for artist attribution for both the poses and outfits, with poses by Amber and outfits by Ruth.

I finally have enough of a lull in a workday to post this at a relevant time of day~! This is *so* rad-- @sunsetaria.bsky.social is such a treat and did fantastic work on these croquis drawings of Dev outfits. I've got the base dolls for later comms, too~! I want that jacket so bad, aaa~!
Five fashion drawings of Dev.

First pose: On left, left hand on hip, pale khaki-hued slacks, loops of chain, locks, and keys, a jacket with an open jacket with a teeth motif-- brown hues with a pale pink interior.

Second: A burgundy-red, ruffled skirt, a pair of belts, and a white shirt with a flat collar and puffed sleeves, the entire thing covered in golden stripes. Left hand on hip, front facing.

Third Pose: Facing away, to the left, back towards viewer with left forearm rested along hip. Ripped jeans, rainbow vertically striped shirt under a jean jacket with fur rim, and a rainbow/stormcloud patch for pride with "After the Storm" on it.

Fourth pose: Both hands on hips, front facing. Grey tweed blazer over a ruffled purple shirt with a white ribbon around the neckline. White, pleated skirt. Gold, makeup freckles, and charms on antlers and whiskers.

Fifth pose: Sitting, legs crossed at the calves, with right hand in lap as pose faces left. Turquoise vest and high socks, brown slacks, and a ruffled, long-sleeved shirt in a cream color that gradients to a lush green. The cube Dev is sitting on has place for artist attribution for both the poses and outfits, both of which are signed by Amber.
