Explicit smut can be literary, actually.

Oh yes, without a doubt. Infighting and complex interpersonal relationships are a huge part of my series. As is their growth in conflict resolutions and strengthening those relationships. They go through a lot, cause each other a lot of pain, and work very hard to change their harmful behavior.

I can’t stress enough how utterly embarrassing it is to see experienced artists suddenly use AI

I can never have a shred of respect for someone who used to be a peer & who decided to embrace something that’s the opposite of any craft & any human endeavour

Cass is chaotic, disorganized, and constantly panicked.

Sam can only function when there is a plan and is painstakingly tidy and well organized.

Luca is messy as fuuuuuck both metaphorically and literally.

Gwyn enjoys clutter, but there is a method to the madness.

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

Is your character organized and methodical, or more chaotic?

Do they prefer to plan things out carefully, or be spontaneous and improvise?

Do they keep their belongings neat and tidy, or are they a bit messy?

HEY GUESS WHAT IM STILL A LESBIAN AND MY GIRLS ARE STILL MUSHYYYY

Reina is applying lipstick on Lillians lips. Lillian has her eyes closed. Reina is on her lap.

Lillian holding Reina up in a leafy area. They are kissing.

Lillian nuzzling Reina from behind while Reina giggles. They are holding both of each other's hands. William in the distance.
L: did you miss me sweetheart?
R: Babe! That tickles!
W: Can we get back to the investigation? No? I hate my life.

Redraw of the maven and rapunzel meme.
L: did you just kiss me?
R: yeas...
L: its okay... I am a "lesbo"
R: you better be!
