so i've been a bit quiet now, that's for a few reasons. one is social and artistic burnout, which seems to be a cyclical thing for me anyways and was a bit inevitable. these past few months in particular i have been mostly secluding myself to close friends and sleeping a lot. the other is at the start of november I helped move a friend out of their abusive situation and have been settling them into life in the city, as well as adjusting to the new house situation myself. thirdly, my father's estate stuff got settled and i finally had the ability to relax financially for a short while, as well as my partner getting a much more reliable job. this means i am able to ease up on how much i need to work in order to survive. of course, i still need to work a little!

i was getting started on my queue last week, as well as working on a revamped reference sheet for myself, some gifts/trades/collabs, and a live2d avatar for streaming as i eased myself back into work mode.

well. as of sunday my work computer is essentially nonfunctional. i have spent the past two days attempting to figure out what went wrong, and more and more information is pointing towards hardware failure, namely my SSD. I have a few friends already helping me with the situation, but there is a good chance my work from the past 7 months is gone im currently looking into data recovery options (as of today i have sent my storage device off to some recovery specialists) and am sending my PC back to the builders for them to take a look at it.

if you have or were waiting on a completed commission from me and i havent contacted you already with a WIP, you are free to request a refund, otherwise my queue will be put on hold until i figure out my PC situation. anyone who i have sent WIPS to, I will be focusing the majority of my energy re-doing and working with what i had sent to the best of my ability on my laptop.

I'm not sure when i will get my normal computer back, and i will do my best to keep everyone updated.
