Spiralling AGAIN would you believe it

u know what im actually SHOCKED it's taken me this long 2 draw big mama

gentle mornings

being a creator is not fun. i just realised that it would be in character for my extremely dog-coded oc to insist on sleeping outside or otherwise separated from other people out of concern for their safety around him, like a dog. i've had her for five years.

The Ring of Brass.

I have finished the rewatching of the series and its still top tier storytelling. One of my favourite short (ish) stories. 

Comfort — Nicholas Galitzine

this man is INSANE and that's why i love him :3

Why is everyone here so obsessed with sex and romance why can't you appreciate the comedic genius of "rivals who fight about parenting to rile the other up to begrudging coparents who bicker like a divorced couple to actually maybe tolerating the other and the insults are now less spiteful and biting to hells first qpr (queerplatonic rivalry) to hells first qpr (queerplatonic relationship)"

Happy Pancake Day to a community that is so aggressively insistent (affectionate) about a character having no ass

oh Red Son no-

reminder that a lot of people, usually those w/ darker skin, can't 'blush', 'flush' or turn red in embarrassment, shame or shyness. there's nothing wrong with using these words but it does help when you add a disclaimer at the top of your post. it doesn't mean that we don't feel our cheeks heating up or that we don't feel blood rushing into our face, so those are alternatives to blushing :]

edit: the early seasons scene i mentioned is actually from "The Army-Navy Game" from season 1

something about lawrence thinking he’s a little past it, looking at adam and feeling a strange mix of envy and insecurity creep in alongside the fondness, wondering what adam sees in him and then .. well then there’s adam. love hearts in the air, cartoon eyes popping out, hammer on head looney tunes style, the whole deal just. absolutely head over heels over lawrence’s whole .. everything at all times, going cuckoo if lawrence’s shirt buttons strain slightly, grabbing a handful whenever lawrence bends over, burying his face in lawrence’s chest at random intervals because, hey, he never claimed to be gods strongest soldier and boy oh boy. man oh man, lawrence gordon md will do that to a guy. lawrence is just trying to get changed? well you better believe adam’s getting a front row seat to that show and. if lawrence happens to let it slip that he’s been feeling a little inadequate? yeah, adam is absolutely taking that as a challenge. good for them both

They're picking apples! 💕

It's been a while.

If you haven't heard, Shining Live JP is ending service on the 26th of December 2023.

It IS however, being ported to switch, in some format at least. Im interested to see how that works. There is also a Shining Live artbook in the works, which I will absolutely be purchasing.

With the recent-ish announcement of the upcoming mobile game including Starish, Quartet Night, and Heavens, I suppose it was only a matter of time. If anything, hopefully this is a sign of more news regarding that project coming up soon.

I don't know if anyone still thinks of me or this account, but if you're seeing this, thank you for sticking around, even despite my inactivity over the last few years of the game's development, I hope at least my old archives of the game are useful to some.

If there are any archival projects underway, feel free to reach out to me and I can provide any old assets I have backed up that may be handy, although most, if not all are already posted here in some format.

Thank you for indulging my sense of nostalgia towards this game, and account. I am still very much an Utapri fan, and always will be. Who knows, maybe someday I will return to archive the next mobile game. I hope you will be the same and continue to support future Utapri Projects. <3
