📌Hello! My name is Kytri. I've been doing webcomics for longer than is sensible and my current one is called Crypts and Cantrips. It is a mostly character driven queer little fantasy adventure story. I also do illustrations and prose, and am trying to learn game dev. Please see my bio for links.

I played a little of the demo on stream last night and it's very cute. I hope the full version will have hotkey functionality when drawing. I kept hitting the [ and ] to try to change my brush size because I do it so much in CSP.

After 1.5 years of pouring my heart into my very first game, I'm so excited to finally announce that... Drawquarium is coming to Steam on November 13! 🥹 Draw your own fish, bring them to life, and create your little underwater world, even as a live wallpaper! Like+RT = ♥️ #IndieGames #Cozygames

progress on the PNGtuber redesign, he wiggl no I don't know why the colors are doing that but it's not so noticable on stream so I guess I'll leave it

if I get good at these maybe I'll offer commissions of them? a standard single mode pngtuber is 1-2 drawings + blinking variants and the line boil effect is redoing the same lineart 3 times. So it could get very elaborate very fast and I'm unsure what a fair price is.

Finally watched the episodes of the Bunlith show that are out and they're fun and got a good couple of laughs out of me. Like it's deffo highly specific and not going to be to everyone's taste but people hating on it are mostly just being transphobic.

This is literally the second post in my webcomic's archive from eight years ago and I had someone last week going "Kitov is a boy???"

When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

more evidence: Kitov is never referred to with any pronoun other than he/him in the comic or by me and yet commenters are still unable to get his pronouns right. I get he's visually early in transition but come on.

Crypts and Cantrips isn't popular enough to have a fan wiki but if it were you could do a Kris Deltarune style list of citations for his pronouns.

saw a post referencing the bechdel test on my feed and not reposting because it was an account smaller than me and may have been a joke anyway but I wish more people understood that literary concepts like that do not apply to real people

I gotta start that youtube channel where I talk about art and fiction stuff because I see people being confidently wrong about those things all the damn time

good morning... or close enough bath consultant is supposed to be here in about an hour. so far no one has yelled at me today

gofund.me/4551fdfe5 sharing the link again. We're currently at about 1/10 of my total goal which is already a lot more than I expected. Someone from the bath repair/remodel company is coming out monday for a full consult and I should get a proper quote then.

Bath consultant just left. She seemed very nice and I'm now extremely biased towards women in construction and remodeling related jobs. We have a quote for about $14k. This is significantly more than I'd initially expected but it covers everything so there shouldn't be any secret extra fees.

The higher price is obviously very bad news for me, but the good news is we called my mom and she's able to help us with the down payment. So I can leave the goal on the gofundme as is and it should about even out.

reposting before I go to bed. If I can get through tomorrow without anything terrible happening I'll feel a little better I think? past three mondays I've gotten yelled about about the leak downstairs, and I think the guy who owns the place is going to hold a grudge against me forever for it

I'm kinda scared because the water restoration guy was like "I'm coming on monday" when we had only discussed what he thought needed to be done (claims adjuster disagreed) and not when and then got super mad instantly when I said I wanted to cancel. I can't afford it if insurance isn't paying.

I'm pretty sure at this point the water coming out of their dryer vent is unconnected to my plumbing and my subfloor issue is something else entirely, which would mean nothing I ever do will fix the issue.

actually now that I think about it when this first started I got woken up by a phone call about it and my roommate was at work, the damage to my subfloor is from a gap in a shower handle that would only leak if the shower was on. How would it start leaking when the shower was not on?

I think artists and sex workers should have a natural allyship. Both of us are often told we should not be allowed to charge for our work if it is at all pleasurable. Both of us are wanted for what we can do, but our work is considered not worth paying for. We should stick together

more MSQ on the secret alt: I've been saying for a while that HeavensWard's big theme is children being punished for the crimes of their ancestors but had forgotten that Midgardsormr just straight up says it.

she seems nice enough but she smokes enough that my place often has a faint cigarette and/or weed smell and it's not great I'm surprised that the landlord, after being such a huge dick trying to make me pay for the dryer vent, also lets her smoke the place up

roommate is trying to get me to apply to work at her job (grocery store) a couple of days a week, which I'm not opposed to because a little extra money would be very helpful but also her specific job requires much use of very big knives and I have really bad intrusive thoughts triggered by them

she says they could put me in floral instead which doesn't sound too bad even though IDK what they do there anyway their application site appears to be broken

The price for this hair has been hovering around 2 mil for a few days so I went ahead and got it for Haurchefant. IDK how long I'll keep it on him for, probably at least until evercold. I think most NPCs tend to look really different if you change their hair, but Haurche still looks like Haurche.

I didn't have 2 million gil on him to buy it so Artoirel had to buy it for him. Imagining Arty giving Horch a bunch of hair care products and telling him to sort his shit out.

not gonna lie it always kinda bugs me that every time we've seen Arenvald since his injury it appears he's completely incapable of moving around on his own and needs to be pushed everywhere. He should get a cool combat wheelchair.

I get there's some irony in this since I'm working on a fic where a character is badly injured and has other people carting him around in a wheelchair but also a major part of the fic is he fucking hates it.

If any artist contact you on discord to ask you for commission, reach out to them on a different platform to verify if it's really them. No reputable artist will beg for your money in your dms.

⚠ PSA to artists and clients on #VGen about a Discord scam going around!! ⚠ a scammer is scraping profiles (both artists and clients) to make fake discord accounts impersonating them, then reaching out to people they've worked with in the past who have their discord info publicly visible

Anti-trans Democrats are spreading poison when we can least afford it, during elections in this ongoing fascist takeover. As a strategy, it’s a recipe for failure. As a moral stand, it’s reprehensible. PS I’m the father of young trans woman and I’ll never forgive anyone who makes her life harder.

IDK if I hate this guy more than most people because epic is the biggest games company in my area and they suck unbelievable ass, but I do hate him a lot

My claims adjuster estimated about $5000 for everything and when I was talking to my mom about it she said the new shower they got recently cost about that as well. I'm hoping ours may be a bit less as we'll probably get something less fancy than what my parents got.
