I'm putting the little storytime about my life here before the art because there's big news that I think a fair bit of you will want to hear :)
On the 24th, M and I were saying good morning to each other over text like normal. I'll show this next part in texting form because it's easier: Them: goood morning Me: morning :) Them: hey can I ask you something? Me: sure, go ahead Them: would you be okay with me referring to you as my girlfriend or partner or something? Me: Ahadgdvdbbdsnbf yes omg <3 Them: YES Them: YES YES YES Them: omg Them: for a second I thought you were gonna say no 😭😭😭 Me: sorry I forgot how to breathe so it took a while to type it out 💀 Them: lol it's ok Me: So uh would you prefer that I refer to you as girlfriend or something more gender-neutral? Them: girlfriend is fine Them: I've never really liked any of the gender-neutral terms Them: what about you? Me: same :) Them: okay cool
So yeahhhh that's how it went down ^^ Now I have a girlfriend! Although I just want to remind y'all that even though we both use the term "girlfriend", we're still non-binary and prefer they/them pronouns. In the days since the 24th we've been texting really often, and sending super cute messages. It makes me so happy :) Today I said hi by sending them a video of me drawing a heart in the snow, and they sent one back. I told them that I almost got frostbite from touching the snow since it was so cold, and they said "if you get frostbite from drawing a heart in the snow for me I'll be so fricking mad" and when I told them I was going back outside they told me not to freeze. My brain was like "omg they care if I get frostbite or not and don't want me to freeze to death?!?!?? 😱😰😳🥺😩🥰😍" The bare minimum, people. That's all it takes for me to start falling head over heels for someone. But also with M it's not just the bare minimum; they express how much they care about me every day, and I love them so much for it. And anyways, today we were just chatting over text when they mentioned a movie I haven't seen. This is what happened: Them: have you ever seen (*the movie*)? Me: no Them: I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU SAY WE ARE WATCHING THAT Me: YES OK Them: AND CUDDLING IF THAT'S OK WITH YOU Me: YES ABSOLUTELY 🥺🥰
So now we're gonna watch a movie and cuddle sometime soon after I get back from my grandparents' house :D I can't wait to see them in person again!!!!
And now here's the art:

I redesigned Diane AGAIN because they looked too similar to M. I really like this design :)
So, tell me what you think about the Lark x Matt ship sailing lol Also feel free to create a ship name and / or ship art if you want to I guess :) If you do make art then you can either use the Diane & Asteria designs or reference pictures of me & that one time I drew over a picture of Matt.
I need to go to sleep now, so I'll check for notifications in the morning ^^
