SO! Hey all!

Instead of doing work that I need to get done for a college class, I am instead procrastinating and doing this. (That, and I don't feel good, so this is preferable for now)

I opened youtube to check something, and I found a video about Archive Of Our Own leaving beta mode finally, and naturally I ran to see if it was true- AND IT IS! After 17 years of beta mode, we've finally entered the officially complete version of the code and I'm so happy/proud of them! I'm going to try and keep some stuff that had the beta mark on it, just for old times sake.

Circular badge with the words 'I was here for beta' with an AO3 logo

I'm gonna miss the little beta marker, though I usually use a site skin so I can't see it anyways. Maybe I'll try to scrounge around for the old version of the code and see if I can find the original logo, just to snag it. I kinda am tickled I was there for Beta, Omega, AND Alpha, meaning I got to experience the whole omegaverse in the span of about ten or so years. A win is a win!

I don't have too much else to add rn, other than I've been playing with my new markers and having a good time, and have been on ponytown a LOT recently.

I redesigned two of my old OCs, and they look a lot better now in my opinion. I love the sparkles! They're an item set, so I always make sure to work on them at the same time. I can't have one without her girlfriend!!

OH! That reminds me! There was a Jam I was thinking of taking part in, and it's all lesbian focused. It's called the Omegaverse Yuri Jam.I know I've got some girls that need to have more love and focus, so I'm probably going to dust off their designs or even use this to workshop my lesbian pairing from a story I'm working on. I don't wanna focus solely on the mlm pairing because it's not fair for the wlw pairing to get sidelined. I think the biggest problem's gonna be that I have about four different relationships happening in the story all at once, and I want to make sure they all get a fair focus. The characters in the mlm pairing are the main characters, but to make a world feel lived in, everyone else needs attention too! Also, I love the story she and her girlfriend have going on in the background, and she's one of the smarter characters in said story (her brother is a dense fool), so I think it's only fair to use this as a workshop and have her get a lovely AU where she and her girlfriend are the complete focus.

Part of me wants to make it an actual point and click "get ready for a date" game like the older games on Girls Go Games or something, and the other part of me knows that will take a LOT of time and be super intensive. If this is a zine, I might wanna make sure it's written. I'll end up figuring it out in the future.

Anyhoo, I probably should work on my homework... oh well.

Bye!
