About
For now I'll leave this as my About, but eventually I may change the formatting to suit this layout <3 Chat with me about my interests and we'll be close in no time, teehee. Now featuring my 2024 Meet The Artist!
CS (closed species) have been a hyperfixation of mine for years. I am a two-time admin for Cinnas, ex-moderator for Gelleggies, and a current moderator for Tricksters! I have extensive experience with species, masterlists, etc.
Kins
(Apologies in advance: this page may get a bit heavy, in both tone and the amount of words on it, LMAO.)
I use kinning as a coping mechanism for my identity, and as such I define it for myself as “heavily identifying with, or as, a character / other external source”. Please respect the way I represent myself as I struggle with a fractured identity going into adulthood. I know y'all are kind and this likely won't be an issue, but all the same. <3My kins, specifically IDs, are closely tied to mood swings and, occasionally, dissociation. I have a few memories and/or vivid mental imagery for some characters, but not many. (Disclaimer: There seems to be a fad of people dubiously claiming to have DID, OSDD, etc. I take accusations of this very seriously. While I have exhibited dissociative tendencies my entire life, I have not received a formal diagnosis and as such will not self-diagnose or claim to suffer from these disorders in the interim. Please do not assume things about my personal life based on what I have/have not discussed in a chatroom. You do not know me. I am human, and I am trying to sort myself out. Thank you for exercising patience and understanding.)I won’t seek "canonmates" out, but if you stumble upon me and feel very strongly that we knew each other, please message me on any platform you see fit. While I may not be spiritual with my kins, I respect that others are, and I'm always down to make new connections!For some characters I really do feel extremely uncomfortable interacting with doubles. Although I refuse to cause trouble, and do try my best to simply avoid talking about kins if I know a double is in the convo, in some instances I may temporarily block someone if their display name/icon is a double. I truly don't mean this personally; it's for my own comfort, and I acknowledge and own up to the fact that I am the one who is squeamish!And finally, a few of my kins are not on this list for a variety of reasons. Some I simply haven't gotten around to adding, but others were either from toxic / publicly denounced fandoms and I am distancing myself or they have received scrutiny from ex-friends.——

Commissions
If you're interested in commissioning me, first of all thank you so much! I really appreciate any and all support!
I work overnight in a doughnut shop (~12-10 AM EST), so fitting owed art into my schedule has proven difficult. As stated in my TOS, I do not recommend ordering from me if you are uncomfortable with long wait times (6+ months). This long wait is not guaranteed, as I of course try to finish sooner, but it's a possibility to keep in mind.I am most known for my work with the closed species Cinnas, created and owned by Kenna / Darkvvision! Most of my art examples are Cinnas, though I am up for almost anything. I can do customs as well as regular comms for the species. Details for custom Cinnas are on my Trello.For non-Cinnas, as well as non-customs, pricing is case-by-case for now. I so rarely get commissions that aren't customs that I haven't had the time to standardize my prices for other commission types.Please DM me on Discord for the fastest reply about a quote for a commission!
Playlists
Best played on shuffle!
This playlist is a recreation of my local rock radio station from over the years.
Created for a roadtrip to Asheville, NC. A mix of genres and tempos. Woodsy.
Throwback to summer after 5th grade. Nostalgic and frequently requested!
Ow, the edge. Just an hour and a half of emo. Good for screaming in the car. :)
DNI + Triggers
I do not recommend interacting with me in any capacity if you fit any of the following criteria. I think most are standard for DNIs, but some are specific to me.DNI:
- Transmed, truscum, radfem, transphobic, queerphobic in any way, gatekeep gender identities.
- Pedophiles, zoophiles, non-con/r*pe fetishists.
- Fanatics of that handul of MCYT bunch. Idk their names and I don't care to learn 'em.
- Kin double with IDs. It's not personal, but am just mentally ill.
- You vote Republican regardless of the issue you're voting on, "Loyal" Republicans, w/e you wanna call it (Bonus: Extremely combative when discussing politics / feel the need to bring politics into every conversation. GTFO.)
- Evangelical Christians; not the denomination, but rather any practicing Christian whose predominant "goal" is evangelism. Your vibes are rancid.
- If you solely create hardcore fetish works, art or otherwise, but especially if your fetishes constantly bleed into everyday life/convo. There is a time and place...
- You deliberately refuse to use tone indicators (I'm not the tone tag police, but I am autistic and feel they are common decency, especially on Discord.)
- I'm getting to the age where I'm wary around very young minors on the internet, like 14 and younger.
- Vague and badly worded, but DNI if you're a shit-starter, eat drama for breakfast, etc. Y'all know who you are.Triggers:
- Lice (do not even use the word around me)
- Eye horror, some specific eye imagery that's hard to describe (drawings of eyes are almost certainly okay; it's only specific photomanips of real human eyes, where they are edited to be darkened, crunched, flipped upside down, and some others)
- Glitch effects, visual and audio, specifically utilized as jumpscares or to create suspense, including the sudden stopping of BG music (i.e. Flowey intro to Undertale)
- Idealization/glamourization of drug use, including weed and psychedelics
- Glamourization/romanticization of Christian religious imagery (priest / cult OCs are okay, but I’m a little wary of crosses on designs)
- Graphic depictions of animal abuse / physical suffering
- Talk of parasites
- Conflict. It's at the bottom because it's vague, but it's the biggest one on the list. I react incredibly irrationally during confrontation. I will never trust you again if you get me into petty internet drama.
