y'know what, yea sure. what could go wrong this time? surely with a plan and predetermined subjects to draw, there's no way I can be distracted.

She has freckles and her cheeks are flushed, and her expression is excited and friendly. She wears typical Ancient robes, and a black mask with white detailing is hung at the front of them

"Amongst the Shelves" ch. 4 is now up! ❤️ WoL/Urianger 📖 Rating: T 📖 6293 words After the success of Operation Archon, Stella finds herself unsettled and full of questions. archiveofourown.org/works/60799456/chapters/210942381 #ffxivfanfic #ffxivwriters #ffxivfic #writing #wolianger #uriwol

"Hast thou attempted to pose thy questions to Hydaelyn directly?"

The Auri woman shook her head, as if she'd been expecting this suggestion. "I have been trying to speak with her for moons. If she hears me, she does not answer. Though in this last battle, I fear she used much of her strength in shielding me..." She sighed, then gave him an apologetic glance. "I am grateful for her blessing, truly."

Urianger watched her closely. "I do not doubt this," he assured her. "Yet, 'tis plain that thou art troubled by it all the same."

Stella looked up at him with apparent alarm, and for a moment he felt as though he'd made a terrible misstep. But then she relaxed, letting out a heavy breath and leaning back into her seat before meeting him with a nod and a grimace. "May I tell you something in confidence that might sound strange?"

"Of course," he replied, immediately intrigued. Urianger was long used to being perceived as unusual, and the gesture of trust drew him in like little else.

Nivy @nivy-arts.com · 18/02/2026

I'd be curious to see if the Metal Gear Solid series ever clicks with you. I know it's a genre way out of your wheelhouse, but I do think there are characters in there that you can potentially hyperfixate on. Maybe try the 1st game? Otherwise I vote Unicorn Overlord.

Viper's design exploration went for a bit in terms of facial features and clothing choice. It was tough to consider which direction to go through, even though I had a color palette set, borrowing them from the real firearm. It was fun exploring, despite spending a lot of hours in the concept stage.

Introducing Viper, the last supporting character for my #GirlsFrontline #fanfic Among the Sea of Butterflies! (Who has an actual finished design and an exploration design doc) Literally just a John Wick stan made manifest, she's a speedy frontliner who can flank her foes with ease and dexterity.

A bio for Viper, a supporting character for the Girls' Frontline fan fiction Among the Sea of Butterflies! She is described as an electric Vanguard handgun unit.

Her bio is as follows:
"Brought on by Maestro, Viper is a hyper lethal close quarters specialist and professional bodyguard. Having done work with Svarog Heavy Industries and Griffin, she's well versed fighting in urban environments, being able to identify targets quickly and taking them down with ease.
Her latest contracts have been with Maestro, and while they were cordial at first, the two have become fast friends over their familiarity of Kuro's streams. Unlike Maestro, however, Viper eventually became a dedicated "Kurobot" and has spent her off time clipping her streams and posting highlights reels online.
Word has it that she picked her fire control unit out of admiration for a certain film series revolving around a renowned hitman out for revenge after someone killed his dog.
Viper was so inspired that she went and spent thousands of dollars on martial arts training regiments and CQC fighting models to improve her hand-to-hand combat."

Her info states her Doll Body Frame's serial number is SSD-JW4PV-SPC. Her imprinted weapon is the Pit Viper. Her affiliation is that of a Contractor.

Her chosen dialogue line is as follows:
"Ooh, man. Wish I was recording that! I could've sent that to Kuro for one of her react streams."

New chapter for Among the Sea of Butterflies is out on Saturday. It's totally not because I was slacking on finishing drawing the last couple character portraits. Or finishing their character logos. Or finishing their bios. It's because I wanna celebrate the last release with a big silly drawing.

More trivia! Cherry was one of the designs I basically had locked down from the get-go from how her attire would look, her weapon, and her shield buckler. The only thing I wasn't too sure of was what color scheme to go with. Eventually I just went with the first option and gave her darker skin.

Nivy @nivy-arts.com · 05/02/2026

Introducing Cherry, a supporting character in my #GirlsFrontline #fanfic Among the Sea of Butterflies! I wanted to say that I would be the first to conceptualize a Blade-type Bulwark class character, but then I remembered Phaetusa exists. Pink hair. Very good. Yes.

A bio of Cherry, a supporting character from my Girls' Frontline fanfic "Among the Sea of Butterflies." In it describes the character as an Ice element melee Bulwark unit. The bio is as follows:

"Cherry was hired by Cyber Media to train its newly formed
"Security Force" division, recommended by unnamed former Statesec agents; highly disciplined and professional. Under her Leadership, Cherry has helped trained both human operatives as well as other Dolls, most notably the problematic Shiro, who wasn't successful during her short time streaming.
The two of them were at odds with each other initially, but after a few operations together and they grew fond of each other.
They eventually started dating each other, surprising many of their colleagues within their unit. But their time together was short lived when Shiro was transferred to Kyiv, a far cry away from Sapporo.
Cherry finds herself busy these days, going on one protection op to the next without much time in between. But what little time she has for herself, she often uses to call her significant other to catch up."

Her info states that her Doll Body Frame serial code is "SSD-1414_QLTY." Her imprinted weapon is an Uchigatana. Her affiliation is Cyber Media.

Her unique dialogue quote says the following:
"You're forgetting an important part; it's for you to choose the right time and the right place. And for me, I'm choosing now is the right time and place for this."

Cool fun trivia. I had two designs for her and couldn't decide on which one to use. I polled many friends and mutuals about which design I should pick. Many overwhelmingly preferred the design that she has now, but I do have a soft spot for the other design. I might use this design somewhere else.

Introducing Maestro, one of the major supporting characters of my #GirlsFrontline #fanfic Among the Sea of Butterflies! She sings and dances. And uses drones for light shows. It's neat. She's very cute. I liked drawing her.

A short bio of Maestro, one of the supporting characters for a Girls' Frontline fan fiction titled "Among the Sea of Butterflies." The description reads as follows:

"Created as a derivative from Shiro's Al model, Maestro is an entertainment-oriented civilian Doll who successfully achieved what Shiro could not.
To standout from her other contemporaries, her specialties lie in drone performances to enhance her live concerts. Her computational prowess shocked her superiors as she performed highly difficulty dance choreography while managing so many drones as dummy links. While singing.
Due to her Al model seeking more ways to entertain, she often finds herself using experimental software to create better algorithms for her drone performances; sometimes to her own detriment.
She's made quite a network for herself, including being an intermediary between executives of Svarog Heavy Industries and Cyber Media. It's how she also met Viper, who she would form a long lasting friendship."

Introducing Shiro, the protagonist of my #fanfic for #GirlsFrontline "Among the Sea of Butterflies!" Conceptualized as an "alternative" form of an existing character, Shiro has a strained relationship with her original AI model. Will she be able to reconnect with her estranged sister?

A bio for Shiro, the protagonist of "Among the Sea of Butterflies," a Girls' Frontline fanfic. It reads as follows:

Originally built and trained as a successor to the CM.SL model, Shiro's Al model showed more growth with her predecessor's
"violent" tendencies. She and her sister model would argue over how to be as entertaining as possible, which often results with many a confrontation, often physical.
After CM.SL was bought out, Shiro's violent nature would slowly mellow out. Despite this, her engagement with her audience dwindled, with a popular reason being cited "she's too boring without her other half." As a result, an executive decision was made to re purpose her into a Security T-Doll, now serving in Cyber Media's haphazardly formed "Security Force."
Now stationed in their Kyiv branch, Shiro tends to live a quiet, uninteresting life, mostly filled with mundane tasks working with eccentric clients just to keep up ends meet with her lone superior. But deep down, she's always regretted not properly reconnecting with her estranged sister.

Concept art of Shiro, showing various sketches of outfits and facial designs before arriving at the final design, which includes a form fitted long sleeve top, shorts, a custom sky blue cloak, and armored leggings.
