crammed this year's may day tour because i almost forgot about it until i was in the middle of finishing my tasks for the day at work earlier (⌯⊙⍛⊙)
i've been playing animal crossing new horizons since the year it was launched and though i don't religiously open it as much as i did (until genshin ate me completely), i still enjoy running around my island, talking to my villagers, and "working" on my happy home paradise island when i'm energized enough to design a rest house. plus i still want to finish decorating my island - something i promised myself i would three years ago hehehehehehe
kaveh goes to the chenyu vale area to survey some lands only to end up discovering hidden places along the way.
i was in the middle of grinding for stellar jades so i can (finally) get argenti in the limited character banner when i didn’t expect to actually do and finish his companion quest, and all i can say is as much as argenti is indeed befitting of being a knight of beauty, he is so goofy i want him in my roster of characters and in my 2D husbands club.
i love beautiful and goofy characters a little too much hihihi.
this is my favourite argenti dialogue in the entire companion mission, btw. he’s such a mood.
march 7th’s a mood here, too.
sleep escapes me still but it's 100% my fault for having little self control and drinking what was supposed to be my coffee for tomorrow (ू˃̣̣̣̣̣̣︿˂̣̣̣̣̣̣ ू)
my preservation girlie era will not be a dream anymore after winning the 50/50 in the light cone banner this patch ( 。 •̀ ᴖ •́ 。)
i wish my genshin pulls are this lucky too ( 。 •̀ ᴖ •́ 。)
not me delaying the rest of the trailblaze mission because the ✨death flags✨ are so real ( * ಥ ⌂ ಥ * )
i also have no idea what's going on there, but yes my top three genshin husbands.
it's also been a struggle overcoming my art block so drawing tiny doodles help me get back into making art gradually (•ؔʶ̷ ˡ̲̮ ؔʶ̷)✧
cyno saying this tells me that during their student days, haitham and kaveh weren’t the most diligent when it came to attending their classes, and though it’s implied in canon that the four of them only became more familiar with each other after they graduated (with kaveh as haitham’s bridge to the two besties), and has gotten closer since the last sumeru archon quest, i wouldn’t be surprised if cyno would notice this detail about them since both haitham and kaveh are well-known in the akademiya even when they were students: haitham was popularly unpopular due to his unusual approach to studying, and kaveh stood out from his peers because his talent and intellectual prowess earned him the label, light of kshahrewar (and of my life, too 🤲🏻 hihihi). cyno probably had an idea who they are back then, but never really formed any bond with them until they were all out of school already.
(i do remember reading in his character story that haitham frequently skips classes since he finds independent study more efficient and effective for him, which is strangely frowned upon by the academe itself. i don’t know about kaveh since he’s always struck me as that student who will still show up to class even if he’s feeling under the weather just because he’s supposed to show up for classes.)
or it’s possible he just can’t believe the two of them aren’t arguing for once, that’s why he can’t help but comment. love it for the two of them (haitham and kaveh), honestly, and i mean it in the most platonic of ways (as to why i stopped shipping them romantically, i’ll save that story for another day 😌). i do feel like even if haitham and kaveh’s current relationship is a mixed bag (as kaveh said so), when duty calls for them to cooperate, they can hold their tongues and personal opinions until they accomplish what they’re supposed to do. it’s like those “the body remembers” kind of moment, if i’m making any sense.
anyway, it’s been a week since i finished the cyno story quest (because i have little self-control when kaveh is mentioned. i miss my best husband okay!!), and i found the entire quest heartwarming, though a little too fast for me? anyway, i’m so excited for sethos to join the boy band, too. i shall now call them my 5umeru bois.
(i also just recently finished the last of my requirements for my job clearance so i’ll catch up on keeping a record of my genshin, star rail, and animal crossing ✨gameplays✨)
i finally got myself to clean this account so i can use it as intended - an art dump of sorts. i used to have an art dump on instagram (ig), but as much as i'd like to think that i'm self-assured about my skills, the algorithm and the porn bots my art ig have attracted were a few good reasons to delete it all together. plus the nsfw rules over there confuse me (not that i even have the skill or heart to make and post nsfw output, just to be clear ofc) - like what makes it nsfw and what makes it sfw exactly? what if it exhibits nudity, but not a sensual one?? the last thing i'd ever want is for one of my accounts to be shadowbanned. that, and i was pretty inactive there, too, so it wasn't really that hard to say goodbye to it. it had a good run. 😌
this summer, i do plan to get myself back into making art that's not really related to my work (i'm talking about sample artworks as visual aids), and hopefully, this blog will be more active than what i had bac on ig regardless of the notes it may get or not get.
