Beastmaster is a lot of fun and I'm glad it's something new and different. But it keeps crashing the servers LMAO. I'll take it if it means breaking the formula.

Man I hope the Scions get new outfits in Evercold I mean Estinien is fine in his armor but maybe a new casual outfit
I actually watched the Level-5 vision from yesterday and I was terrified every time cartoon Hino was talking. You can't fool us. We know your true form 😭
Shields my beastfriends from the concept of feral souls Yeah nothing going on in another world, don't worry about it
The four Yokai Watch girl drawings I did, redrawn :] Alpina (Yama-okami) Agent Spect-hare (Bunny Mint) Foiletta (Noroino Hanako) Mermaidyn (Ningyo)
I've been really into the term "ego check" lately. As in I hope certain people get ego checked. Or I can't wait to ego check someone.

[2D cel-shaded Drawing of the S-rank Hunt Elite Mark The Forecaster from the Living Memory zone in Final Fantasy XIV]
Drawn, written, and designed by Floon Drif of Faerie](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mqpkr376ova4mdhcs3o3jo7x/bafkreicagnalbvaqkx4hvrntewca4qfstm6jnf5hwuqp7xtyf2lp4fuefy)
![1. The fight starts with a tutorial of sorts. You will see each variation of weather status and which AOEs correspond to them. These will be telegraphed!
2. The Forecaster will have a long dialogue about the forecast, but you can just look at the icons on its status bar. They should be in the same order that the mechanics will go off in.
The Forecaster: "Reacquiring data... Thunderclouds will give way to ferocious gales then sizzling heat!"
82.5% The Forecaster [Cast Bar]
[Status Symbols representing Hyperelectricity, Gale-force Winds, and Wildfire Conditions, as they would display below a boss's HP bar in-game]
When the cast “Weather Channel” goes off, the AOEs will go off in sequence untelegraphed.
Hyperelectricity -> Gale-force Winds -> Wildfire Conditions](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mqpkr376ova4mdhcs3o3jo7x/bafkreigd2d2tnbru5oswg3s475vqdc3nqlphq5ws62qjgdoqiilyjeddyy)
![3. The Forecaster may have a secondary dialogue about an error. Read this one to see which weather is being overwritten. The new weather condition will take the place of the overwritten one.
The Forecaster: "<bloop> eRrOr! Revising forecast... Expect blizzard conditions, not violent zephyrs!" (the words "blizzard" and "violent zephyrs" are underlined)
82.5% The Forecaster [Cast Bar]
[Status Symbols representing Hyperelectricity, Gale-force Winds, Wildfire Conditions, and a glitchy version of Blizzards, as they would display below a boss's HP bar in-game]

Hearing about people who plagiarize/trace in the artist alley lately and it's so wild to hear about. I remember the betrayal I felt finding out an artist I followed traced. We have like. So many tools at our disposal to help us with poses and learning how to draw...
Confirmed to be vending at 2 events in October, excited and nervous 👀 doing my first stamp rallies too
"they blocked me and i never even said anything to them" buddy i have some bad news about how many people can perceive your behavior in a public setting
My babygirl acrylic stands are finally back! You can pre-order them now until September 20th, 2026! 💓 www.lemonboba.com #lemonwerewolfart #lemonwerewolfmerch
Freaking out because today's event cutscene referenced Welcome to the Black Parade by MCR. All of the marching band kids from 2006 who love that song feel seen right now. I know I'm not the only one.
floon@floon.bsky.social · last mo.stares longingly at all the FFXIV fan community events around the world... where da WoLs who are good at event planning in SoCal.......
It’s wild how cons seem to all think artist alley artists are loaded. tiktok artist alley influencers are lying to you. we are all working on thin margins and have day jobs and are often just doing it for the love of the game lol.
Made packaging for my new buttons! I've had this button machine for 15 years and I always handed them to the customer in a small bag. This is the first time I've made backing for them 👀
the basic problem with text based social media is that the majority of people turned out to be functionally illiterate
I'm on the opposite side of the country and I'm hearing about how connecticon artist alley has a $150 "refundable" application fee and a booth costs $650. It just screams scam to me!!
