New year, new day, new inspiration for a new idea (the inspo is obviously coming from how I'm still sad over Ollie) Honestly I kinda stop writing 'summaries' for these ideas bcs I know I'd be changing them time to time but somehow this one calls out to me. idk. would I write it? Maybe. lol
My best boy and best friend in the world. Since he’s best boy and best friend, that makes him my best BOYFRIEND <3 I miss him so much. Gosh. I lost my 6 late cats but Ollie being my first dog feels cut deep painful.
On my favorite games of 2025, in that weird meandering way I think about games and life and industry and everything. Thanks to @giantbomb.bsky.social for having me! giantbomb.com/articles/ram...

Slept 12 hours straight today and only just woke up, realizing it's already 2nd day of January 2026. But yeah, it's really because I'm still lagging in 2025. I got so much to reflect on yet also be thankful for in 2025, still trying to heal from losing Ollie just a day before Christmas Eve last year
I'm very proud of @aleema.bsky.social & team for this. I have known Aleema since the semi-early Renpy days & one of the people who inspired me to get into game dev when I was starting out. To see this feels like an honor & a gift. Play the game here: tenshistudios.itch.io/mahou-shoujo...

I love you my boy. Thank you for the 11 years. You’ve been my best friend, my closest confidant and the one I always love coming home to with warmth and joy. The one who always make me look forward to waking up, even on the hardest days. I love you so so much.
It's never easy asking for help, but I've been suffering with burnout for months and my savings are almost gone now. If you have some to spare, no matter the amount, I would really appreciate it. ko-fi.com/pluviance/

I don't... have it in me much past few days and even more so today as I found out Ollie... very likely.. has... osteosarcoma (bone cancer). Been holding back tears in the clinic when the vet told me that I think even he noticed it, said "I know. Trust me, I know."
WHOA time seriously flies that it sort of flew by me like a sparrow on a jet engine- 4 more days to go! Hope everyone's participating are having fun with what they're cooking up!
Still got 9 days left for the Cozy Christmas Romance Jam! Huyyah huyyahhhh! I hope along the way, your Christmas and holiday celebrations are going well for this year!
Our 2nd submission for Cozy Christmas Romance Jam! And this is a cool concept too! You get to make your own winter holiday RPG with detailed guide in each page, and tbh since I used to work for a board game project before, this is pretty neat! Check it out at: fuentespens.itch.io/snowed-inn
tried to make steamed cake...... anddddd it end up being.... steamed... pancake brain: it's still cake :D
Shit. My savings are so little, it's low budget dinners for the next few weeks. I've been shouldering food costs & necessities for 2 to 3 people in my fam since last month💔 I'm sorry i have to do this every month. I got pushed to my limits because of the pet bills. ko-fi.com/reinav

Lately I've been thinking, right - and yes this is also related to another random erotica piece I'm writing - I wonder for quite some time why is it I feel conflicted abt being sexual. As in, I truly feel at first theres something wrong with me but I also feel more liberated the more I accept it
Anddddd Cozy Christmas Romance Jam is up and running for a month long! Co-hosting with @lunamakaio heheheee Totally not me giddy about playing Hallmark-inspired Christmas romance games XD itch.io/jam/cozy-chr...

Guyssss ;-; I did ittttt- uh. finally, I think Wrote a bit more for my 'Librarian of the After Life' story. I can't decide yet whether it should be a series. But here's a snippet :D Imma post it on my ko-fi bcs for now idk where else to share it. Tumblr maybe?
I feel like I truly made some progress bcs I had this story drafted with its prologue last year. But within this week, I spent 2 days to writer 2k more words for the 1st chapter Anddddd I have no idea why Rafael is there but I had fun. Been so long really
Yknow the sex in erotica is better than the romance when the sex in the erotica has happened in 2 pages, compared to the sex that only happens 10 chapters later in the romance on brain: ur just horni jas
Yknow, now I think about it: It's really gonna be a month away until the new year huh? Hope everyone's doing dandy for the Cozy Christmas Romance Jam :D do share your progress!
Also tbh it's hard to really look at a Dullahan and think wow you scary cause you no head But most of us growing up probably know there's nothing as scary as some flying head just whooooooo whooo past your window be like "sup guys? cold night huh? yeaaaah it's windy here hehe"
I like that I get into a discussion with someone who's not SEAsian nor Asian about 'headless' mythical monsters/creatures/beings and then it's "Hey we got the Dullahan that's scary" Some SEAsian somewhere: hold my beer
I'm neutral to Dolla though I do like some of their songs but what happened to them recently is both the scariest and stupidest thing to happen to them. They didn't deserve that.
And just to let yall know: Any progress is still progress :D GET COZY AND ROMANTIC IN A FEW HOURS 😘
