“Part Of Text Written Small. Rubrics, Initals In Black, Red, Blue.”, Monastery Of Augustinian Friars,

Chi-rho page from the Book of St Chad, which dates from circa AD 730. It contains some of the earliest evidence of the Welsh language in written form

This joke also plays on the fact that in soccer removing your shirt is explicitly banned in the FIFA rules and is penalized with a yellow card =D

English added by me :)

@upennmanuscripts (the greatest blog in all the land <3) was talking about manuscript-influenced fanart and it made me nostalgic for when I made this

A present I made for my dear friend @ave-puella.  You may recognize it as a short Temeraire fic she posted a little while back.  It’s done entirely by hand, and was my first time attempting borders and illumination.  I’m still figuring out gold leaf, but it was super fun to work with (there’s also some gold work on the border of the third page).  For those of you unfamiliar with the Temeraire universe, there are dragons, hence the second page border.

It was a heck of a lot of work, but was entirely worth it for her face and incredulous ‘what did you do?!’

Did you run into the human one or the cartoon one? I feel that both would be very intereting to do coke with, but in very different ways

My Christmas card from @goddamnshinyrock just arrived and I’m so happy omg

I made a game!  It’s a text-based adventure about living with mental illness.  I pulled a marathon coding session yesterday and ported it to javascript, so it’s now you can play it in a browser without having to install anything.  Yay!

As the subject matter might suggest, it’s a little on the dark side.  Writing it was an emotional but very rewarding experience.  Self-expression through code!

Let me know what you think!
