Hey yall!
          	
          	I want to move to another site. Wattpad has too many ads and micro transactions and I no longer want to support a site that does that. Ik with stuff like youtube, it isnt entirely possible (although i use an adblocker) but i no longer want to support a site that purposely downgrades significantly in every aspect (not just ads/microtransactiona but it just sucks more overall) 
          	
          	Ik a lot of companies and sites do this. Hell, i have a twitter account that i use (altho im only there bcs its the only place that allows nsfw anymore) but if better alternatives exist, im going there. 
          	
          	Also i am doing graphic novels anyways so it makes no sense to be here
          	
          	I'll be on tapas ! Check out Miracle Mirage on Tapas https://tapas.io/series/Miracle-Mirage
          	
          	Im making surprising progress on chapter 3 and it should be done sooner than expected!

Chapter 2 is finished! And now I will be taking a break. Not rlly a break because im taking a break from making new chapters to refine the script and art style bcs i want to improve it, but I won't be uploading a new chapter for a while.
          
          Chapter 2 will probably be out over the weekend once I have time to upload it all

Just watched Belladonna of sadness and wanna change my art direction for miracle mirage. Not just because i liked the movie but because i think it is similar and i want to achieve a surreal look anyways. Its an amazing movie ive been meaning to see for a while. It is very surreal and mostly still frames but so pretty.
          
          I will warn, its a disturbing movie. It starts with a rape scene (it is shown artsy and not explicit but disturbing nonetheless. It is definitely an adult movie. Broke my heart.) And has strobe effects and all. It is a good piece of art that i recommend, but only if you know and are okay with what you're getting into

Would it be weird to make yet another account? I have so many idk if i have enough emails. And i have very few followers here anyways.
          
          But some of my system wants me to. Jasper really wants to share more of our art that we havent shared here but I dont rlly get it bcs we have very few followers? Ig he wants it as an archive in case it gets taken down off deviantart. Because we lost a piece of art a while ago because it "broke TOS" even tho DA has mature tags and none of my other art did? So idk why that one was the one they had an issue with because it was extremely mild. 
          
          But I might move accounts bcs I post too much here bcs our memories aren't entirely shared all the time so its difficult to control people coming here and doing random stuff here. Im sort of the system "manager" in a way so I do control a lot of it but sometimes people will do things I don't catch. 
          
          So yeah probably best to unfollow me if notifs annoy you, it won't be upsetting to us, but im trying to have a little bit more control over what gets posted on this board and if its relevant to the stories im posting here. Sometimes i break the rule so I'll have to be better.

Im rlly unsatisfied with how I wrote Odette.
          
          Her obsession with immortality is supposed to be symbolic of conservatism/preserving old, harmful  ideals. But i feel like her literal character actions and motives dont rlly reflect that well and also i generally rlly hate the trope of the villian being a woman who wants to stay young. I feel like this trope often doesnt take into account the societal pressures of women and the reason why they want to stay young, saying that its due to vanity instead of a bigger societal issue. 
          
          So im gonna do a lot of rewriting of her so it may take a little longer bcs i just rlly think this is a major aspect of the story that i cant exactly just leave.
          I dont want to exactly change the immortality aspect but i want it to not be so black and white.
          
          But also I want Odette to still be a villian because its sort of supposed to be related to evangelism/purity culture 
          
          So im probably just gonna completely redo her

Basically, older drafts were supposed to be a critique of gender roles/purity culture/natalism/religous nationalism/sexuality
            It just didnt do a good job bcs it wasnt the final draft
            So i want to make sure it actually makes sense bcs i remember once i did smthn a few yrs ago that was supposed to be a critique of capitalism but it literally had no relevance at all.
            I want to cover these issues but im honestly just not good at it so im gonna have to try it until its better
