"YOURS ONLI"
The lovely lady in this portrait is holding a sailor's love token. Sailors would engrave them with romantic messages to give to their sweethearts before a long journey. I'm sure she acquired this one by innocent means :)

This real antique silver Love Token needs to find its people! It was made in 1878, by a seriously talented lover on the back side of a US Seated Liberty Quarter. It's in our Etsy shop now. Do you know C and A? Share this with them :) https://www.etsy.com/listing/1416114080/

Some cryptid photos of Vessel (+ ii) that I've collected over the past week. The fact that almost all of them look like they came out of trail cam footage is absolutely sending me
