Sorry for not updating in quite a while!

Quite a lot has happened since my last update, so sit back, relax, and enjoy.

I've had a number of phantom shifts! I had one a few hours ago and I felt large feathered wings on my back. Unfortunately they hurt a little. Oh well. But every time those shifts occurred I was so happy!

I've meditated once since my last update, I think? I better not be forgetting one, because if I've forgotten one, I'll scream lmao.

Today I feel a lot like a dragon. I feel so powerful and majestic and almost ethereal. It's a wonderful feeling.

My meditation since that last update was a memory of something i had wanted to see for a while - my life as a dragon! So, it was... interesting.

It was day time and I was in my day form. I was resting in the forest, the smaller animals I caretook playing around me... the vision started in third-person, by the way, and kept switching. Then I was alert. I must've heard or smelled something. I got up and saw a figure in the distance, getting closer and closer, aiming for my dear friends. It was another dragon.

I spread my wings, flew over to the enemy dragon, and fought them on the beach. They looked like your typical Western dragon, with dark crimson scales and large bat-like wings. I battled with them and I believe they could breathe fire or something because they burned me. It was very interesting. Then two tigers, one orange and one white, bounded out of the forest to assist me with the fighting and defending territory stuff.

I learned I had powers as a dragon. I could control plants. Pretty cool, huh?

Sounds unbelievable, doesn't it? Well, that's exactly what I saw, and there's a lot of questions, trust me.

I also recently ordered these fluffy cat paw mittens online, and they arrived yesterday! They're sooooooo amazing and will really help with the dysphoria. The colour was a little bit off, though - I was expecting a darker brown so it would be more like my feline theriotype, but you know what? That doesn't matter. I have these really cool gloves I can wear to school tomorrow and show off :)

I also bought a shirt with a wolf on it and LOTS of clothes with foxes on them... because I want to feel more like my theriotypes. Aaaa I love dressing like my kintypes

So, that's all I really have to say - oh wait. There's more!

Not exactly otherkin related but for my birthday I'm getting a medium Wacom Intuos Art tablet! I'm so happy. They're like $250? So yeah, pretty expensive. But I still. I'm getting it for a 13-inch MacBook Air (yes, medium is compatible for those computers and should work fine).

Don't know what a tablet is? Basically, an art tablet is something you plug into your computer with a USB cable or a battery you buy separately to connect wirelessly, and it also comes with a pen. You can control the buttons on your tablet, too. You set it up to your drawing program and with your tablet pen/stylus, you draw on the tablet, and whatever stroke you draw on the tablet, it shows up on screen! That's really cool.

As for art program, I'm likely getting Photoshop or FireAlpaca. And yes, I've had lots of experience with digital art before. I am also feeling inspired to learn to draw as many animals and mythical creatures as possible :)

That's all I have for now. Bye!
