Been on a "redraw old characters" trend, strange enough.

This is "Nex".

Yeah. I hated his old name.

So, now, his new name:

Quillan because it fits. Yeah.

This is my personality now. It makes me happy.

Genetically modified anthropomorphic creatures with no souls. They made the shells but couldn't gain consciousness. Cue dumb young adults signing up bc it looks fun and it's the "future" of entertainment.

Now they're stuck, the facility is abandoned and they're just surviving.

they?

Layde;

A design I made a long while ago, tried to sell and even give away for free but still kept coming back. So. Layde is now my own OC. He is stuck with

Neo (who you might recognize from before, she is making a comeback!)

Theyre just vibing, doing their thing.

When an absolute gremlin of a feral child decides to take up residency in the same abandoned building. He has no fam, so Neo gets attached and keeps him.

Grayson (who does not have an actual ref yet) pictured here when Neo firsts discovers him;

more to come, of course!

Idk why, but this makes me happy. :3

More. Yes. More.

The being that lured them into the whole deal still lurks. She is mean. Grayson does not know. Layde does.

hide

A feral child? Tangled hair. Layde likes to keep up his look, Neo is always clean. This did not fly well with the child.

Rip.

And a little wholesome nap time.

....

but wait...?

what is that on the wall??

an old poster? Maybe?

Mmmh your art has improved soooo much. Love it

So, a bit of background... also to partially explain why I've been absent-ish.

STORY STUFF YEEHAW
Y'all remember Argent and his whole thing.

that's a story still in the making. BUT
Quillan, we remember him from the last page.

Quillan now has a story to be a part of. It is techncally Argent's. But as Argent's kid... and twin to Flinnigan;

What's the dynamic, you ask?

Quillan (Quill) with a more serous and skilled task.

Flinn with sheer chaos.

And then, obligatory, not my OC. A small art trade with a new player;

All of which is done by me! (C)85543

Some happy fam!

Argent and his twin boys, Flinn and Quillan!

Totally didn't take me 3 hours to do. Nooo.

... the hands didn't give me a struggle either.

Y'know, I'd say something about style changing and blah blah blah...

but let's be honest...

at this point, Argent just looks like a bigger menace than before.

Oh, don't believe me?

How about we take a look at my phone Lock Screen from 2021

...

Yeah.

AND now, we get to see a little bit more of the Weapon of Farian (referenced in the story and stuff and blah blah blah)
but ... yeah.
the inner Argent menace is def escaping.

No context... just venting emotions.

Well, some context;

toxic friend freaked out over something (i don't have contact with them) but another friend let me know what they said... about me.

Which was that I "was a risk" and they had to "protect their loved friends"

...
I thought I had been a loved friend. But no, I was just someone to toss to the side. NOW for the actually relevant context, this was when I changed from Aura_Ivelan and made the transition slowly to Zivixia/Zeraphia

but.. it still hurt.

So, Cassie... trying to comfort Aura.

It's hard to comfort yourself.

An adorable ship. Yes.

Kayvan Adrina (picture sometime ago) meets his chaotic bf; Ethan West.

but then something happens.
and yeah.
