Two Cycles.

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN

I will be running both an ‘Ask Ashlyn & Co’ sideblog AND an ‘Ask the Valriants’ sideblog! And eventually (hopefully very soon) will officially publish my commissions information!! Augh, I’m excited! :D

Anywho, here are the links for each blog:

Ask Ashlyn & Co!

Ask the Valriants!

Fellas,

It is currently summer and although I have like negative free time, I feel the urge to annoy my creations temporarily run an ask blog!

It’s something I’ve been wanting to do for like a thousand years and now I actually have a smidge of free time and???? Motivation??? To do art???

Oh and I guess I should mention I’m about to officially open commissions (and go to the San Antonio Superhero Comic Con, this 20th!!) so uh! Yeah that’s something!

Anyhow!!!

Information about the potential Q&A’s below:

Ashlyn and Co:

This askblog actually already exists! But if no one wishes to interact, should I scrap it?

This askblog may contain information and interactions that are not universe-adjacent. Canon information will be given to the asker in the form of a drawn response, and interactions that occur are not canon unless specified. If a response depends on a particular time period within the universe that these characters reside in, I will specify.

Although there is a chronological order regarding these characters, there isn’t yet a fully fleshed out story, and the askblog will not contain a true ‘plot’ until specified.

Askable characters will be my main original characters, who are much more developed than my Valriants.

Askable characters include, but are not limited to, the following:

Ashlyn (Echohuman, any pronouns)

Bernard (himbo Werewolf, he/him)

Galada (OuterTale!Lumen, she/her)

Halley (Creepypasta!Human, she/they)

Izzy (Human, they/he or they/she)

Kathryn (Nekomimi, she/it)

Kristal (Gem hybrid, she/her)

Lio (Human, he/she)

Melody (Human, she/they)

Mystery (Nephalem, any pronouns)

Pixel (Android, they/it)

Soot (Soot Narrator, it/its)

Torana (Timelord, any pronouns)

Victor (Human, he/him)

Valriants:

The Valriants! Currently mildly fixated on them, these characters are alternative versions of my main persona, Val.

The Valriants are a form of character affectionately known as a Dopple (inspired from the word ‘Doppelgänger’, if that wasn’t obvious).

The idea of alternative personas is not necessarily new, but the concept of calling them Dopples is something I’m pretty sure I created? Anyhow, these characters have relations to my friends’ Dopples, so an askblog with them may involve some other lovely people >:)

This askblog would not have any plots or stories, other than a flashback into a Valriant’s past or an interaction I simply wished to share.

Each Valriant belongs to a separate universe as their peers, but by the law of Creator Magic™️ they now all reside in Ria’s castle-mansion-thing! With other Dopples! It’s a full house guys like holy shi

Askable characters may include, but are not limited to, the following:

Azure (Cesium Phoenix, he/him)

Bloom (Pale Ink!Nekomimi, he/she)

Celeste (Luminary, they/them)

Cherri (Fell!Nekomimi, she/her)

Connie (DSMP!Saytress, she/they/it)

Deci (Mandela Catalogue!Human, they/she)

Dotty (Dust!Haienamimi, she/they)

Eclipse (Nightmare!Nekomimi, it/its)

Estelle (Banshee!Nekomimi, she/her)

Fallacia (Hybrid Shapeshifter, any pronouns)

Kit (Nekomimi, she/her)

Lavaru (Swap DSMP!Suraimu alien, it/its or any pronouns)

Lotus (Regalistale!Axolotl Mersiren, she/her or any pronouns)

Luna (Aetherian Feline, she/they)

Maze (Employee!Nekomimi, they/them)

Missy (Mandela Catalogue!Alternate, it/its or any pronouns)

Rami (Valkyrie, they/them)

Ria (Post Empireverse!Nekomimi, she/they)

Scarlet (Horror!Nekomimi, they/she/it)

Valeria (Pre Empireverse!Nekomimi, she/they)

Willow (Science!Nekomimi, they/them or any pronouns)

Extra Notes:

Characters will be introduced one by one, in the form of a quick introduction and visualization. Aka, once I show what the character looks like and provide a snippet of information about them, they will be free to answer!

Characters are subject to change!

Characters do not currently have set ages, but none are under the age of 18. The only exception to this is if their younger selves make an appearance, a flashback occurs, or viewers are given a glimpse into the many other ‘verses’ these characters may appear in (ie. Highschool AU, Bitty Beans AU, Circus AU, etc)

Events and interactions will be categorized as canon, noncanon, or hypothetical.

Magic anons will be allowed!

Ask whatever! Literally, whatever. Don’t worry about being gross, obtrusive, personal, etc etc etc—I have my ways to provide a character’s response ;)

Although I will remain very open and lenient, I still reserve the right to deny any asks I want. Assume your ask will be answered eventually unless I have specifically told you otherwise!

Honestly really excited to see what happens, maybe I’ll just ditch the polls all together! Who knows!!

But uh yeah it’s like one am lmao so I’mma pass out. Cast your stones!!!

Adios beans <3

Edit: Check reblogs for finished Day 4!!

Finished day 4 of #dukecietweek will be delayed (sadge)

Here’s the wip tho (happ)

:)

Man, I love it when girls

💙💙💙

“Youth is the gift of nature, but age is a work of art.”

“The youth is the hope of our future.”

I think a lot of us accidentally took youth for granted. But when we tried to enjoy it, we were ridiculed and forced to grow up.

Especially those that surpassed the age of “child,” even just barely, felt the pressure when they attempted to truly enjoy their childhood by being “childish.”

So rebel.

Go color a coloring book. Solve a book of puzzles. Sleep in a bed of plushies. Go outside and just lay in the grass for a while. Play that game your parents never let you. Take that class you’ve always wanted to. Watch that show you think is interesting even though everyone calls childish—hell, watch it BECAUSE it’s childish; let spite fuel you!

Play, learn, explore—return to that state of simplicity, imagination, and wonder.

As long as it doesn’t harm yourself or anyone else, be a child. Take back your childhood, if even for a few minutes :)

consider: teenagers aren’t apathetic about everything they’re just used to you shitting all over whatever they show excitement about
