First Swim

Our MerMay Story, Day 1

Sometimes I wonder who taught me how to swim. I like to imagine there was someone, once. Their steady hands guiding me as I flailed through the water... I can't remember them, no matter how hard I try. I wonder if they're still out there, somewhere...

---------------------------------------

I'm hoping to keep up with this event through the whole month, with fanart and writing for Aquaria each day. The story I tell isn't likely to be linear, more a bunch of little slices of Naija's life or thoughts at different points of time

I'm going to be drawing each day's work in a neat journal I was given as a gift a couple months ago, it's meant to have an old and weathered look!

Colors: slslo8 from lospec, except lightly modified cause I wanted to add some lighter blues. The palette reminded me of rose with the orange & purples! I want to do more art of her with all her signature colors

Fantrolls introduction + Artdump

I made these guys all the way back in October 2023, when I was a bit less than halfway through the comic. They were originally made for a roleplay server but I got too burnt out from school to actually join, and my anxiety was acting up. They're moirails, and wear each other's colors to show that :D

✨a bunch more art and rambling below cut!✨

Name: Iridia Rimian Pronouns: she/they Gender: demigirl Age: 8 sweeps Height: 5'4 Blood: Teal Classpect: Maid of Heart Derse Dreamer

Iridia's the first fantroll I've ever made, she's not exactly supposed to be a trollsona but she kind of started out that way and I did pour all of the anxieties I had at the time into her when I created her, and also gave her my love of cardigans and drawing, her outfit is modeled after one of mine, and we have the same pronouns. So we have some similarities!

Iridia is incredibly scared of the future, she's constantly burnt out and all she wants to do is stay home and draw forever. She struggles to make meaningful connections with people, and is pretty sure she won't live longer than 10 sweeps. Luckily she's not completely alone in the world, she has her moirail and her lussus!

Typing quirk example:

Your Trolltag is iridescentMelody, and you … pause a lot because . you can.t always . think of the right words … … and sometimes you trail off and forget …

… what you were going to say . … you don.t have any variety to your . punctuation . so you have a collection of emoticons to . convey expressions with .^. ^.^   .-.   .^.   .0.   .u.   .o.   .v.   ._.   .~.  .'.  .×. … … … and … … … … … … when you.re … overwhelmed … talking gets … even harder … … … … and you may use just ._. emoticons to express .~. your feelings .×. … but at other times you can be . a bit long winded . you want to make sure that you.re understood correctly . and all of your points . get conveyed .

Name: Galani Darmor Pronouns: alright with any, but especially likes he/her (specifically in those tenses), ae/aer, and shine/shines Gender: Hero Age: 8.3 sweeps Height: 4'5 Blood: Violet Classpect: Knight of Hope Prospit Dreamer

I made Galani because I realized that Iridia would simply not survive alone in the world, and then as I fleshed aer out to contrast to her I got really attached. A lot of parts of her are also inspired by parts of myself! But maybe a bit less

her deal is basically that he has a huge hero complex. He carries herself with a lot of confidence, which he mostly feels, but he gets very upset if he doesn't feel he's living up to the standard of being "heroic" that he's set up for herself.

Galani can get pretty in shines head about issues of morality.

Typing quirk example:

Your Trolltag is mechaHero, and ✨you talk with a lot of ENTHUSIASM and EMPHASIS!✨ ✨and you like to let people know when you APPROVE 👍 or DISAPPROVE 👎✨

✨if you-were-to-get DISTRESSED you would-start-to-talk MUCH FASTER which-thankfully-never happens because HEROES DONT GET DISTRESSED 👎👎👎✨

Here's some more art of both of them!

This is one of the first Iridia concept arts I made, ft. her lussus!

Here's some early Galani concepts, and me realizing he should be short actually.

sketches of them together!

Pixels arts of them being adorable and in love :D

Also, here's a little chatlog I wrote for them, in their typing quirks:

MH: ✨ hey IRIDIA! 👍✨

MH: ✨ how was WORK today? ✨

IM: … hello . galani ^.^...

IM: … it was . fine …

IM: … mostly -.-

MH: ✨ something happen? 👎✨

IM: … i mean . not really …

IM: … i don.t know ….

IM: … i don't know how . to explain . it was . pretty normal …

IM: … which . might be part of the problem -.-

IM: … but . i think i.d rather talk about something . else …

MH: ✨OK! 👍✨

MH: ✨ want to hear about MECH FIGHTS? ✨

IM: … okay . sure .^.

I've been slowly working my way through reading Homestuck for the first time, and every time a troll got a full introduction I stopped to make a small sketch of them.

Oldartober Day 9!

(inspired by this post!!)

(January 2023)

I was watching a bunch of videos by LDshadowlady at the time, and i had the thought of using it as a limited color palettes, and then later i decided to do the same thing for Scott Smajor's transition screen when i watched a bunch of his videos. They're both pretty messy, i don't like working in digital much. But i think they're pretty fun ^^

May I intrest you in some past-midnight sapphic scribblings?

Felt like drawing one of my oc pairs to start off the new year on a good note ^^

I'll probably work on finishing these in the morning

I was thinking about rewatching the entirety of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic a bit too hard after midnight and now it's 7 am and

in related news i should probably take a nap sometime today

Happy Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I drew this today to celebrate my second June identifying as bi and my first as nonbinary

Another Ms. Paint! I like drawing her :D
