Text: 20 and Some Change Image: A brown hand with chipped nail polish flips 3 coins in the air, each coin has a face on it. One coin has the face of an Indian American man, one has the face of an African-American Woman, and the third coin has the generic silhouette of a man with his face x-ed out. Below the hand are some flowers.

Screenshot of a piece of the 43 part of an outline from character Tahj's point of view. (The writer is stressed out but this project has been kind of fun. It's neither lessened nor increased her stressed levels, so she sees that as a plus.)

Game screenshot of two Black men, Jacob and Corey, having a brunch date in a restaurant. Text reads: "I laugh too and he absently kisses the palm of my hand, still looking for our waitress." The two men have been dating since they were 16 and 17 and the game developer holds back happy tears seeing them together in adulthood. KEEG AND OKE?!? YOU'RE NEXT, BABES!!

Keegan is girly and vibrant and loud and confident and loving and so many Keegans never get to grow up to be adults. And I'm writing this story where Keegan is an adult, who is surrounded by so much love, and it's so crazy to think that there was a time she wasn't in my head lol.

dad "A part of me is excited to see you enjoying your high school years." dad "It's always been school, sports, and video games with you, and not much else. firstname "Hey! Are you saying I was boring?" It's one thing for my best friend to say it, but my own father?? dad "No, [firstname], I'm saying that there's so many wonderful things to experience at your age and as your dad, it makes me happy to see you coming into your own." firstname "Soooo...you're saying that I had no personality."

I exercised my freewill and commissioned @vampirepyramid.bsky.social to draw up a comic of my #CrushedVN kids! 🎶🤌🏽
8 panel comic featuring 3 Black teens having a silly time; Corey, in a yellow hoodie who plays the ukulele, while Keegan and Okechukwu sing along.

Faux teen magazine cover with the title "Hummingbird Games" in purple font across the top. A young black teen, Viola, with pink afro puffs and wearing girly accesories, poses with a Nintendo switch in her grasp.

Last #AmareTeaBreak before release!!!

colors x Crushed series: game 1 is pretty on the nose with colors (I used the bi flag as a nod to Corey and love the color associations w/ pink, purple, and blue.) game 2, I was forced to think critically about Jacob as a person….
Biracial, black teen boy Jacob floats in the water looking at the camera. Black teen boy Corey wearing glasses and a yellow hoodie looks despondent towards the camera.
