Hey I Don't Have A Tumblr But I Just Wanna Say That Art Of Your Drow Bard Is Absolutely Gorgeous. That

100 Followers!?

Oh uh- well shit, thanks for all the follows? Should I do something for this? Idk. Maybe some writing drabbles? Sketches? I can't promise any of them will get done since my attention span is all over the place but.

Idk- send some requests I guess? Just state if it's for a drabble or drawing.

Drabbles will be at max 2,000 words unless I'm feeling spicy.

Drawings will be sketches unless I am once again feeling spicy.

If I get 500 followers maybe I'll do a raffle or something.

👍🍗

Kin & Shibi - Write about your ship celebrating their anniversary. for @qettleqorn

Before you get married, you are usually assaulted with an onslaught of well meaning advice about what the hardest part of marriage might be. Shibi feels like he got an especially high amount of that “good” advice because he was bringing a true outsider into the family. Everything from “she will get fat” (as if that mattered) to “she will just run away with a younger man” (what could he do about such a thing? Never get married?).

But none of them mentioned the truly hardest part about marriage, the fight he saw himself confronted with every year like some real annoying fly that would only come out in summer and then never stop following him around.

What to buy your spouse for your wedding anniversary? That- truly, was the hardest thing about marriage that nobody ever told you about.

As if looking for presents wasn’t already difficult enough, Shibi also managed to get a wife that he can’t buy jewelry for. Well, he probably could buy jewelry for her, but not only does she have already massive amounts of it, but she can also make them herself. Probably better than other stores could. Either way, this option was always out for him.

Year after year, he scraped by with some present or other. A rare species he found or modified to look especially beautiful, a big dinner, a new dress, decoration for the hair, more gem stones for the store, such things. It always put so much stress on him and he never felt it was good enough.

Now, after 15 years of this, he feels completely burned out on ideas. And the anniversary day is right there staring at him on his calendar. His mind is completely blank. There is nothing there. He is empty.

He could always ask Kin to just not gift anything for the anniversary. If they’d agree not to gift each other, he’d be free of his burden. But unfortunately Kin was always a rather good gift giver and would probably not agree, or agree on a “You don’t have to buy me anything, I’ll buy something for you though” basis, which would be no good.

Agony. Pain.

“I don’t know what your problem is,” his eldest son shrugs with his shoulders. “I don’t think mom expects much.” Shibi should know better than to ask teenagers for advice.

“I get my wife flowers too, so you can buy jewelry as well.” Shibi stares at Inochi, no way that guy buys his wife, who owns a flower shop, flowers for their anniversary. “You are so lazy.” Shibi walks away.

“She doesn’t like that sort of romantic stuff,” Shikaku puts his head to the side. “We usually just spent time away with Shikamaru either being with his grandparents or just on his own.” Shibi makes a sour face. What kind of present is “hanging out”? He walks away. Time to give up. His friends are no good either.

Yet, time keeps moving on, as cruel as that may be and the morning of the anniversary Shibi is non the wiser. There is no way he can let Kin know that he has nothing for her this time, that despite his best efforts he came home empty. The only thing he can do is distract her well enough that she won’t notice.

From morning until evening he is there for her at every moment. Making breakfast, helping her in the store, buying her lunch at the café in town she likes. When she askes to see the bug farm he takes her there, to that colourful species she likes. He carries the shopping bags as the sun sets and prepares dinner for the family in the evening. All through out, Kin doesn’t mention the anniversary a single time. His mission is a full success.

Night rolls around and both of them sit next to each other on the couch in their living room, when Kin turns her head and says: “I feel a little bad, despite my best efforts, I could not think of a gift for you for today.”

Shibi feels the sweat at his neck. So she has not forgotten. “Well, I – I’m glad”, he humms. “I couldn’t think of one either.”

Kin blinks: “What do you mean? You gave me one!?”

He blinks back: “No, I didn’t! What should I have given you?”

She laughs, the most beautiful sound in the world. “You spent the entire day with me! That was my gift I thought.” She leans forward and kisses his cheek. “It was the greatest gift too.”

Ah, Shibi thinks, that’s what Shikaku meant.

Uh, I have nothing I just wanted to imagine Astarion and Karlach's parents lol

Anyways-

Astarion has two dads

Karlach's dad is a human (in my head anyways) and her mom the tiefling, the worked on boots (I haven't played her romance route yet but we're getting there even if it takes 5 years lol)

Lai, Wen | Non-Binary (he/him, they/them)       >  Here is Kiku’s Baba! Her parent basically. They’ve raised Kiku since they found her!

NISI THANK YOU!!! She's so cute!!!

Day 10: @qettleqorn's Kin

(prev day)

This year, we'll be changing up some things for the Naruto Calendar.

1. A shorter timeline schedule

This year, instead of going to mid-December, the final deadline will be at the start of November, likely November 1. This will allow time for final preparations and emergencies--and maybe even let us release the calendar earlier!

The schedule for the 2024 calendar has yet to be set in stone, but the rough schedule so far is: June for apps, Jul-Oct for creation, Nov for finalization, and Dec for release.

Apps will be opening in the first week of June so stay tuned!

2. Better Announcements/Reminders

We know not everyone uses Discord often. So to help keep everyone in the loop about deadlines and changes, we will be posting announcements and reminders here on this blog as well as sending out emails.

For Tumblr notifications, we will tag you in the post, and for email, we will be sending out notification emails through our email: naruto.calendar@gmail.com

Participating in these type of notifications will be optional. After you get in, we will send out another form that you may choose to fill out if you would like to be notified via these methods.

3. Calendar Templates

To streamline the final process near the end, this year we will be providing calendar page templates that artists will have to pair their art to, rather than the other way around.

4. Phone version of the calendar

If you're an artist who doesn't really want to collab with a writer, well you're in luck! Aside from the cover artist role, this year you can apply to work on the phone calendar. This calendar will feature its own collection of art, simpler in style than the desktop/printable versions that we've done in the past. And, of course, this calendar will be vertically formatted to better fit a phone background.

As the phone calendar artist, you will create art for all 12 months. Though the topics will be decided by the other calendar participants, you will have the creative freedom to interpret their chosen themes/topics as you see fit.

Since this would be our first time attempting such a thing, we do expect the way we approach the phone calendar will change as we go. Suggestions are welcome!

This boy is extremely appealing and a demisexual panromantic rep! I adore him and the comfort this game has brought me.
