Cover reveal time!

SCALES LIKE STARS will be available May 16th for Mermay! I feel like I've been working on this book forever. I'm really excited to get it out into the wild where it belongs while I work on Lyrica's Merfolk Book #2.

Pre-orders are available here! Paperbacks are coming a little later on but should be available for release day.

Prompt 274

You know what is fun? Baby Ghost Jason. You know what could be even more fun? Ghosts are Dragons.

Jason? Aware of none of this.

He was on comms, y’know listening and rolling his eyes at Dickwing, who used his real name, really Dick, he mocks. It’s just a stakeout, nothing new there, honestly boring when he could be blowing something up instead. It should have just been a stakeout.

Yet there’s something suddenly there, something behind him. Something that causes his hair to stand on end and his comms to spark into static like some sort of horror movie. Something, something with clawed hands with corpse-pale skin tipped in black, stained or dead or something else, tilting his head up and up and up as he’s frozen.

“A child, out here? Alone?” a voice crackles, hisses, hums, and purrs, somehow all at once, unnatural in its tone. He can’t move, he needs to move, he has to move, but it’s like the space around him has gone cold and dead, like he’s stuck in the Pits once more as claws hold his head and his vision blurs. “Sleep, child. Rest- we’ll be home soon.”

#DCxDP #DPxDC #Prompts #Ghosts are Dragons #Halfa Jason #Not Ghost King Danny #Ancient of Space Danny #Jason: If I just got kidnapped by fae because Dick said my name I’m going to riot #Halfas have human-ish forms #Danny has four arms like Pandora & floating horns like Frostbite & same scale patterns as Clockwork #He’s cooing over the little Star Core Jason #Jordan & Ellie: Oh a new sibling? You give us sibling to tease? Yessss gooood #Pariah looking down at this scrap of a teen now forced into dragon form for his health: Ah yes another grandson #Jason has no clue what’s going on he’s very overwhelmed right now #Danny was not the one to nab Jason but it’s his child now look how cute #sun core dan #moon core ellie #space core danny #star core jason #a lil celestial body flock of dragons <3 #Jason is like a chonky amphiptere-esque dragon #long serpentine with feathered wings but also has legs #six chubby catterpillar-esque ones and long curved talons

Just got done w/ revenge on my rewatch and I have an au going on in my head where Jo gets a more developed character arc and dawn gets further in the competition bc they form an alliance lesbianism ensues (they make each other worse/better)

#freak x freak dynamic but theyre both on separate sides of the freak scale #this is like my first independently thought of crack ship and technically it doesn’t make sense but it makes sense in my heart #only reason it came to be is bc I placed them next to eachother on a redesign line up and went hmmmmmmmmmm #they initially make an alliance in this au bc dawn is on the toxic maggots #augh I meant mutant #this also would kinda open up to dawn being on all stars #total drama #td #total drama revenge of the island #roti #tdroti #td jo #total drama jo #total drama dawn #what would their ship name be ummm #jawn #jodawn #jelly art

Decided to make myself a wallpaper of my favorite little guy (gender neutral)

Click for higher quality because Tumblr absolutely annihilated it

#in stars and time #isat #Btw you can use it if you'd like!! My phone resolution is a bit wonky compared to most other phones though #So it may not fit very well sorry :(#GOD I missed doing full scale artworks I haven't done one in so long #It's back to the animatic grind now though 😔#my art

I got my first proof copy of my book yesterday. It's 384 pages.

There's margins I need to fix, and I'm still not sure if I want the matte or shiny cover yet but at least I have something I can hold and edit.

More mermaid Leo for mermay, take food

#btw I have the theory in my own AU that when leo skin dries no more scales but the only thing that #he can't hide is his big mer tail #also izumi cares about appearance and Leo think he wouldn't like that for this reason so every time he go to see izumi do it #idk how to explain it in words but I hope you got it #enstars #my art #ensemble stars #あんさんぶるスターズ #あんスタ #enstars fanart #leo tsukinaga #mermay

Prompt 285

Another Tiamat Prompt, what d’ya know lol.

Only? That much power, of nine near-godly beings in one body? That’s a lot. And, they can’t exactly… unmeld anymore. But they were prepared for that, they were ready to have to sacrifice it all. So if they have to leave their world as their power gets too strong, then so be it.

So they wander, from world to world, unable to stay long, never finding a place that feels like home. They wander, stars spilling from wings, asteroids melding with scales and stars bursting into feathers as they do so.

They wander, and grow both stronger, and bigger than ever before. But they grow tired, weary. Exhausted even. This endless travel, they tire of it, just wanting a moment of rest. They’ve been moving endlessly for so long, getting fitful rest as one of them dozes at a time, and they just want a proper moment of sleep.

So they land and… when did worlds become so small? When did they become vast enough to wrap around them? When did they grow so large to dwarf the world they had once come from so long ago once in another timeline?

How long, they wonder, have the nine of them wandered? How far? How many timelines? Dimensions? Planes of reality?

But they’re tired. So for now? They rest. They sleep away their worries and grief, life and death spilling from their breath, rock and earth building around them as they dream. Water giving way to life, plants to animals, animals to destruction over and over.

And they rest. They sleep. Scales harder than any ore, feathers more beautiful than the rarest bird, fur softer than the most expensive silks, yet visible to none. For they sleep, resting below the waves, stretching from sea to sea.

Until…

Until they begin to wake. They do not mean harm, they are not even aware of the life that has grown from their presence, of the panic the great disasters and storms are causing. One snuffs in their sleep, a volcano bursting from the heat. Another head shifts slightly, sighing at the new comfortable position as sinkholes break across the surface like an earthquake.

How can they be aware, when they’re still dreaming?

#DCxDP #DPxDC #Prompts #The Class Pulls a Tiamat #Reminder for who is part of the Ennead: Danny/Dash/Sam/Tucker/Val/Paulina/Kwan/Star/Wes #Don’t worry they’re not on Earth #Another planet might be panic-calling the Justice League & the Lanterns though #Superman instantly pales the moment they get anywhere near the planet #”That’s not a core of a planet- that’s some sort of Heartbeat”#Yes the giant multi-winged hydra is planet sized now #They’re like the mystery flesh pit #Yes they Are waking up from some aliens mining at their scales #They’re big enough it doesn’t even hurt them it’s just like an annoying rash or itch #Yes it’s very lovecraftion vibes with them being near incomprehensible to the planet-dwellers & other things #let ghosts be Eldritch
