Gift: ALAS by Jayjay

I thought I lost these files after I had submitted them to PSICOM for book 2. It was in my thumb drive all along~!

Jayjay Lopez drew these for ALAS several years ago, and book 2 was sadly never printed. (⋟﹏⋞) It makes me very sad when I think about it... I mean, he even drew each of our titles' logos! That take a lot of patience~

Maybe one day we'll be able to re-explore the possibilities ALAS has to offer, but for now... we'll have to leave them in the back burner until we get another chance! Thank you Jayjay! We love this very much~ ♡( ＾▽＾♡)

Tales of Vesperia: Flynn Scifo

Incoming rant - please enjoy this lovely man with his lovely flowers instead of reading what comes after. (^^*)

I... feel sad.

I didn't think it would be easy, but I thought I had a chance.

I lost the webtoon contest. I'm not even part of the honorable mentions and I didn't think it would make me this sad. I should feel accomplished about beating an impossible deadline, but I gained weight and an eye infection for it, and now it feels like I wasted my time... again.

I feel sad. And maybe also a little frustrated.

So I decided to draw someone who could cheer me up. I couldn't draw Otoya, because he's been ignoring me in Shining Live for a while now, haha!

So I drew Flynn instead. With a bouquet of flowers... so I can imagine him telling me that I did my best and accomplished more than I ever thought I could. And that I shouldn't give up on my dreams just yet, and just keep going.

And I will keep going, but right now... I just feel sad.

And maybe that's okay. Tomorrow will be another day, and I will be better.

Apteral: Episode 4

I didn't think I'd make it..! This is probably the first time I'd ever been able to beat a deadline with one day to spare! And it feels amazing!

...that's the good news. The bad news is, my eyes feel weird. I feel tired all the time, and it might just be fatigue, but my eyes are really scaring me right now.

I may need to see a doctor about this. Hopefully I can get some answers before the next deadline comes up. For now, I should probably rest and stay away from the computer for a while.
