my 2023 round up :3
2 years ago
Well, with 2023 pretty much over (and already over depending on how far east you live) I thought i'd give a little recap of my year.
first off, my toxic parental relationship was mostly fixed in March when we moved house. Dad moved in to an old house he owned on his own and me, my sister and my dogs moved into the new one. Money has been a bit of a problem since Income isn't as good because of my mother being mostly the sole provider, which has resulted in me having to help out a lot of with my disability benefit income. I haven't had as much money this year for art and stuff because of it, especially near the end. I hope things get sorted out next year so I can get back to spending on things I rather over what I'm forced to. We will see.
My health however has been shitty this year. After pretty much no flare ups since the end of 2020 (2021 and 2022 were quite fine and not that bad) I've had symptoms since march, with only half of april and may being mostly symptom free. Lots of pain and discomfort and it's awful, going up and down, and seemingly getting bad again before it fully gets better which sucks. My painkiller dosage has been increased and i've been having difficulty sleeping, resolved with sleepign tablets but I don't want to be on them constantly.
As for gaming, I haven't played too many games this year, at least new ones. Mostly just played old games, spending lots of time on old school runescape (I made a new ironman this year and progress has been very good) but I did play some new games, this year i've played mario rpg on switch, zelda totk, bg3 and ffxvi (I bought a ps5 for black friday) And they're all great games, with my favourite being ffxvi! It's my personal goty, and up there as one of my favourite ff games (alongside 4 6 and 10. I don't know if I should count 14 among these since it's an mmo, but it's up there too if I would)
And as I mentioned earlier, with art, i got more earlier in the year before monetary issues started happening but had to slow down a lot. If I was to pick one of my arts this year for my favourite, hmm.... I'd have to pick either (NSFW WARNING) this from
or this from 
. I think they're both super hot and I love them so much. Of course, I love all the art I get, I wouldn't commission it otherwise, would I?
And now I'd like to take a moment to talk about my friends!
First I'd like to give a special mention
(Storm) as the friend i've spent most of my year with, both in person and in voice chat. Having voice chatted with him almost daily, and even visited him twice, and been visited just a few days ago!I live in the UK and he's French so we don't live "toooo" far away at least. I love playing games with you, and we play a lot of games to each other, even if we don't fully understand what's happening in them, and others we certainly do. We also play a lot of zelda oot randomiser multiworlds together, it's become a bit of a thing we do almost every sunday, and it's great! Here's to the new year Storm, i'm sure we'll spend a lot of time together too! (you're also kinda hot, ngl)
Next i'd like to talk about
and 
as two buds that i've known since almost the beginning of my time in the fandom. We tend to spend our friday and saturday nights together watching shows, mostly anime but also some western animation too! So far we caught up on finishing one piece (wano arc) And samuari jack (absolute classic of a show I urge you all to watch) They're currently watching ATLA but since I watched that recently (for the third time) I'm not currently watching it with them (not making it a priority I mean, I come if I have nothing else to do or am on my own). Here's hoping we'll watch some more great stuff in 2024 <3
Another shoutout to
For being there mostly to talk about my health and helping me when i'm down. He has a similar but probably worse condition to me and is one of the only few people that "gets it" when I talk about how it affects me (even more so than my family, sadly...) And for also having some chats in VRC with me before bed towards the end of the year. Seriously, you rock. Thanks for being there for me, even if our differences in preferences for games caused a little bit of turbulence at one point (I will die on the hill that ffxvi is far better than alan wake 2 and NOBODY will change my mind. I am a massive Final fantasy and jrpg simp in general though and have played all the main series games so...). Heres to a good 2024 Danni!
Shoutouts to
for being a beakhorse and making sure I enjoyed ffxvi. Don't worry, i'd have loved it without you there to hear my reactions :3

But I did still mention that in case I forgot some people :3
"Such A Cute Silly Derg..."
Hopefully your health issues will get sorted out and I also hope your money issues will get better in 2024, but I guess it's better to have at least been able to break free from your toxic parental relationship with your father despite that :) It always sucks to be in a toxic parental relationship and I can relate to that since it's not easy with my father either to say the least, so I'm happy to hear it's mostly been fixed :)
May the new year be kind to you and take care of yourself ^.=.^
