As soon as my knees allow, I feel like I should swim in my tail more. This is a sign I don't go mermaiding enough.

Should also make time to visit my friends, too. Haven't been able to travel in a while 😅

I'm not the only one who's weirded out, right? I can bet on game of the year!!!

Behold my champion! Neighbors dog was off leash and I didn't notice. We were already outside when their dog decided to cross the street, my yard, and up my stairs to attack us. S'mores was not about it, but at no point did he turn on me even though we were both cornered on my porch.
Ria snuggling her fur-nepphew. S'mores is a black and white mixed hound that won the rematch after the neighbors off leash dog attacked him.... again. Victory is his, and he knows it. At no point during the dog fight did he turn on me, even when I reached into his mouth to pry him off of the intruding dog's ear.

I'm so dramatic sometimes!

#oc #art #wip.... I think. I might just leave her off here.

Cloud in a genderbent Lightning outfit would have ascended me. It was probably a mercy that they didn't give us that for the sake of my poor heart.

As for Aerith. The pink hair is cute, but the uniform is one of the few misses from me. I think I'd prefer her in Serah's og outfit.

Got a little more done with SeaMoar to help me wind down for bed. I'm most likely going to add more shading around Ria herself so she stands out a bit more. I'll render her in tomorrow as my wind down for bed.
SeaMoar the cuttlefish is holding a swooning Ria, the Capricorn. He's rolling his eyes at her antics and has a tentacle propping up his cheek.

Im probably going to change the colors of her tail. I'll know for sure when I put in her colorful hair. Im also thinking about having one of her eyes peaking open so you can tell she's just playing.

Wanted to put the WIP on my patreon, but it's still locked for now. So, here's a little teaser.

Hi All!

In addition to my video dropping, @stygiansis.bsky.social will be hosting a stream at 9pm, EST. Yours truly and @loonypoundcake.bsky.social will be joining her in the discussion about Cloud as a character, what he means to us and gaming, as well as his history and a bit of theory crafting.
Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy 7 is on a motor cycle at night. From the top, the franchise's logo has Cloud's name, his birth month and day, as well as the expected start time of the advertised stream. The hope is to kick off at 9pm, EST. This stream dedicated to Cloud's birthday is being hosted by Stygian Stilettos Gamer, and will have both Ria Alexanders (me) and Loony Poundcake as guests.

It's almost #FinalFantasyVII #CloudStrife Birthday!!!

Another day closer to my #youtube video dropping. Not going to lie: im kinda nervous. 😅

Part of me just wants to release it now, but I just be patient.

I think I'm more excited for his birthday then I was my own...!

... don't read into that 😑
A younge Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy 7 is seated on the water tower's platform, looking longingly at Tifa Lockhart's bedroom window. From the top, the franchise's original logo has both Cloud's name and birthday, August 11th identified. Under the logo is a quote from "2000 Gil to Become a Hero" stating "...this was something he wanted to do of his own free will." Around him are mean words used against him when he was a child. "That Menace to Society" and "the Weirdo" were commonly used against him. The announcement is for Ria Alexanders' video essay detailing Cloud's traumatic origins. The video will cover Cloud's early life up to the Nibelheim tragedy.

I was right!!!

The smellier the better.
A screenshot of a Google search for catching a skunk in a live trap. It says: The best bait for a skunk live trap includes strong-smelling, meaty or fishy options like chicken, sardines, or cat food. Peanut butter on bread, marshmallows, and even bacon can also be effective. Skunks are attracted to strong scents, so don't be afraid to experiment with different baits to see what works best in your area, according to DIY Pest Control.

Also, this was the description before I fixed it on the gif 😅😅😅
The auto-generated description for the Jinshi gif used at the start of the post. On it it says "a purple haired anime character with her eyes closed and her mouth open." Jinshi will never escape the baby-girl allegations. It's a little after this he stops taking estrogen as a means of controlling his testosterone levels, thus enabling him to continue pretending to be a eunuch. As the estrogen leaves his system, his more masculine traits start showing up more often.

Didn't take a lot of pictures from Supercon on account of my phone having no space, but I did clear up enough for these treasures:

She's such a an amazing man being and I just loved talking to her. So hard not to be starstruck! 🥰

Brianna and Suzie were also there, and also received prezzies!

On it is Britt Baron's signature, the voice actress for Tifa Lockhart who's pictured on the card.
