Oh wow ouch.
Oops. I felt something.

Possibly the best song for inFamous that I’ve ever heard. Even better, the lyrics sound like they could reflect Zeke about either version of Cole. Just wanted to share. There’s lyrics in the annotations, but you’ll probably have to see it on Youtube to view them.

More Exit Void work. New character design and some Sketchup Modeling. I used the warehouse for most of the objects in the spaces. My work is just in the building of the space. I’m still super amateur at it, but I’m getting better.

I’m alive and things are going a lot better. Have a song! I can’t express how much I love this one. Though the words are a little hard to catch, they hit some of the coolest points and themes of the canon.

The first art I’ve done in a long time I feel is worth posting. While it’s relevant to roleplay stuff, I think it speaks a lot towards how I feel right now. This is this character’s last form before going into her final stand doomed to fail. I keep banking on that I’ll feel better once the holidays come and I go back home and see my family again.
I hope I’m right.

Taking up an offer
I see those “I don’t know you, but I love you, you can always come to me to talk if you’re in my followers <3 <3” posts now and then. I was wondering if I could call on that favor. Anyone willing to be a good solid shoulder? I could use some help. I know that I haven’t been active in Tumblr for a while, but I don’t really have anywhere else to go.
Thanks, in advance.

Lie Yourself Down
I saw a prompt on the Portal Kinkmeme and then decided sleep was an inferior cause:
How about insecure!Wheatley h/c?
He’s been told, all his life, more times than he can count, that he’s stupid, worthless, a moron who can’t do anything right, and for all his bravado… he believes it.
But then there’s Chell, who he knows deserves better than him, but for some reason she continues to stay with him anyway. And she tells him, over and over, that he’s worth it. That he’s valuable. That he means the world to her. That she loves him not in spite of, but because of who he is.
And very, very slowly, her words start to really sink in.
Beautiful ;_;

Patient 14002 - A horror AU Portal fic contest entry
Hey Tumblr, I’ve been dead from Dreamwidth Roleplay stuff, but I’m here with this rushed contest entry~ I found out about the Wheatley plush contest at the last second and threw this together. Now that it’s submitted I might come back and expand on this. As it is, it’s just barely over 1000 words.
Patient 14002
Who: Cave, Caroline, ‘Whitmore J. Pendleton’
Summary: After Walter Freeman of Black Mesa House patents the transorbital lobotomy, Aperture Asylum begins to struggle to catch up to and surpass their rival. Hopefully patient 14002’s treatment may be the key to their success.
There was a hum and a jolt to the air. It was a familiar sensation and those that knew it held their breaths and stood still in the long and dirty hallways. Whatever they were doing, whatever patient they were tending to, none of it was more important than this. The hum broke into a crackle and finally the speakers snapped to life.
“Cave Johnson here, listen up.” Patients ducked, cowered, and trembled at the very sound of the man’s voice echoing from the speakers. “We’re taking out the lunch special today. Stumbled on some old research by this Hazard woman saying starvation might cure aliments, blah blah, bottom line: less money spent on food and way more pudding for me. So. No lunch, no dinner, no snacks. Goes for employees too, we don’t want to contribute to you catching any crazy while on your lunch breaks—which brings me to my next announcement: no more lunch breaks. You get more time for you to do some real work and less time to gossip and stuff your face. I’m saving you from schizophrenia, really you should be thanking me.”

Help feed a hungry jao!
I’m offering commissions for these cute little hand held sculptures~
ONLY $15 ( including s/h ) for a 2-4” sitting figure. They’re fun to do and the turn around time for one is around a week or less. All are hand sculpted and hand painted. I typically decorate the shipping boxes as well.
If you want something larger ( like the Axel pictured above ) please let me know! I’d be more than happy to take on larger projects and discuss with you time and cost!
I can also customize picture frames if you’d like. The frame pictured above is for my Put it all Behind You watercolor and is covered with sculpted vines, wires, and a turret at the bottom corner. This is done in Apoxie Sculpt, unlike the Super Sculpey figures above. I don’t have a painted shot of this frame, but any ordered would certainly be painted.
I’m willing to take on robots or any other characters you might have in mind!
I’m opening 5 slots! For any one slot you can order up to 2 figures at the cost of $15 for the first, $10 for the second.
The money goes to help my husband and I with food. We’ve been running short for weeks now and things are tight. Every order is a big help.
Payment would have to be through the mail as a check, money order, or concealed cash ( like birthday card money ).
