To give a rundown of my hiatus now that I'm back for those not in the know:
1. Yes, I've gone radio silent and have been away for months for the sake of mental health and to deal with RL stuff, since it's been roughly 2-3 years since my last hiatus/break.😞 It's also so I can have more focus on comms without pressure from people since it negatively effects drive and creativity. I've rarely been on Twitter, I never checked my Kofi, and I haven't hopped on any discord server, including my own. I told myself that while I was away, I wouldn't share anything yet, until I made enough progress, and thankfully, I managed to. For those who actively wanted updates, I apologize, as I didn't want to keep giving the same excuse after same excuse, giving false hope and false promises that maybe I'll get art done quicker. But, I knew I wasn't getting enough motivation to do so, and I just got tired of kidding myself. The disappointment in me not keeping my word kept me feeling guilty which only made things worse. I thought it over at the time, and to me, this was the best choice. 🙏
2. On the side, I've looked to opportunities to help the last few months feel less suffocating, like aromatherapy, more exercises, etc. I even picked up new stuff, like photography with my new polaroid camera, Pokemon card collecting, and trying out new games outside of just XIV. That also means I have no clue what's actually been happening in XIV game-wise or community-wise within the time I've been gone.
3. I've still yet to land another job, but I did try and get myself a bike for work off ebay some time ago, only for it to go no where since the seller never responded or even shipped the thing.
With all that being said, glad to be back. Have me vibing. :)
Noctis took some inspiration from Eos' Kingsglaives for his new Sage armor. Without a doubt, they would've approved.
