Hello everyone, and sorry for my sudden radio silence!

I’ve become much more active on my alternate account, (tumblr: kyousa38 twitter: kyousa_38) – and since I’m having trouble balancing both accounts, I’ll be moving there officially ! Thanks so much for following me all this time!!

There’s NSFW posted on that account, but it should be under a link from here on out, so hopefully you’ll consider joining me there too!!

I’ll probably still use this account to talk with mutuals from time to time, but feel free to talk to me on my new one as well!


…and uh, you can call me thumper on it. you dont have to call me kyo

Hi there, everyone! This journal entry's been a bit long-time-coming, but I figured I'd post an entry in case anyone was curious.

I still use DeviantArt for social purposes (mostly group and RP), and I'll still post artwork here now and then, but I'm mostly active on my Tumblr and Twitter now.

Please follow me there if you'd like. Thank you for all your support!

edit: I'm currently working on a more detailed commission portfolio now that I have things to populate it with. Please stay tuned :D!


Hi there! I'm opening up a new kind of commission for programming this time - if you're interested in making a game, or need a layout/any kind of coding work done but don't have prior experience with code, feel free to take a gander! I'm also able to make scripts for bots (for dA and Discord) if you want a bot usable for your roleplay group/chatroom.

I'll be working on these commissions after I finish all my outstanding artwork commissions. Please take a look if you're interested!




You can check the deviation linked above if you want more information!

RULES
  • Prices are in USD - I take Paypal! Prices are negotiable - for small projects, I'll take payment in advance - for larger ones, I'm willing to work out a different arrangement.
  • I'm over 18, so NSFW work is acceptable.
  • Please include your deadline when you contact me!
  • You might want to include some kind of contact method (like Skype or Discord - or an email!) if I confirm your commission so we can discuss further if necessary.
  • Pricing is flat - one payment!

COMMISSION TYPES
  • dA / Discord Bot Setup (free for mutuals, consider donating $1 otherwise!)
I'll teach you to set up and use a suitable existing bot for DeviantArt or Discord over an instant messenger. Since I'm not the one writing these particular services, I can't promise troubleshooting - but I'd still be happy to answer any questions you have about them moving forward after setup (just shoot me a message)!
  • Bot Scripts / Toys ($5 - $50)
I’ll write a simple DeviantArt bot script. Price varies based on complexity. Past projects include a fully-functional dungeon system (personalized to RP characters!), inventory system, RP activity tracker, battle scripts, random prompt rolls, Battle-Royale style prompt generator, character stats lookup, with Google spreadsheet integration (the script will read from a spreadsheet so you can edit the information fed to the bot easily yourself - without any coding involved!). I won’t accept projects that’ll take 20+ hours. Free troubleshooting within reason!
  • CSS / HTML themes and skins ($15 - $40)
I’ll help you write CSS/HTML for your DeviantArt, tumblr, toyhou.se, website, etc. page. Willing to work with anything that supports CSS/HTML! I’m familiar with working on DeviantArt group pages, also (check Ars-Pactum for examples!). Price varies with complexity. Feel free to ask for work examples! Unfortunately, not accepting design commissions at the time - you’ll have to provide the design and color scheme yourself with a mockup (a drawing of your design). Contact me for more details on how to format your mockup!
       (Extra examples: the journal skin here ($25), the frontpage skin here when it's posted ($25))
  • Visual Novels ($10 - $150)
I’ll code your visual novel for you! I’ll be using Ren’py to do so. If you’d like me to work with a different game engine, let me know! I won’t code custom game engines unless it’s a very special circumstance. You’ll have to ask me and discuss if you’d like mobile or web capabilities, and you’ll need to provide your own game script, sprites, files, and music. Contact me for examples! Price varies on game length.

... yes! I will code your entire visual novel for you. it'll be a good time! really, i just like to make games.
  • Flash Games ($10 - $50)
I’ll program your Flash game that’s playable in a web browser. If you have your own hosted domain, consider doing this in HTML5 instead (have a chat with me! I’ll explain the differences and pros/cons of each to you if you’d like). Pricing varies on complexity. I’ll reject projects that’ll take 20+ hours.
  • Mobile / Web games and apps ($100+)
Mobile development can be quite complicated - you’ll need to be familiar with the iOS/Android terms of service and distribution rules before contacting me with mobile app commissions, and be very clear with your proposal. I might reject these if I don’t feel comfortable or sure that I can finish with your provided specifications!
  • Unity 3D / Unreal Engine ($100+)
You’ll need to provide your own art assets for me to work with Unity3D or Unreal Engine, which means you’ll need experience with modeling and rigging (or at least, a team member with this experience). Pricing varies, and I might reject these commissions if I don’t feel comfortable or sure that I can finish with your provided specifications. I’m able to develop 3D games for mobile platforms as well.
  • Game Proposal (varies)
I’m actually really interested in working on a game with others! If you have a long-term project that you’d like to pitch to me and need a team member for, I’d be happy to have a chat with you!


If you'd like to commission, please send me a note with the following format:

Title: Coding Commission
Body:
> Type of Commission
> Description of Project
> Any extra notes
> Deadline
You're welcome to inquire if you'd like examples first!
I'll clarify your project information and specifications if necessary, and provide a quote of a final price if I approve. If you're alright with the price, then I'll exchange my Paypal address (and contact information with you if I need to)!

Payment is in USD through Paypal.

RP Comfort Meme

13 min read
..... :iconewbteplz: ah, so, I don't usually do memes on deviantArt but this one seems quite useful! Tagged by :iconavodkabottle:! You can read hers heeere: RP Comfort Meme
and the original heeeree!!!!: The RP Comfort Meme


RP Comfort Meme

A valuable meme for any role-player!
Come display your comfort levels so your role-play partners are aware of what they can do, and of what they should avoid! A healthy relationship between role-play partners is the key to a good time.
While this meme shows the basics, please remember to communicate with your role-play partners.


Role Play Basics

Locations
I am comfortable doing:
anything with a constant notification that i'll see - because i am terrible at remembering to post. It's best to sit me down for a realtime RP, or I forget really easily!
- Comment - bbbbbbad idea bad bad forgets to post a thousand times i am sorry
★★★ Chats - This is usually the easiest method for me! I remember to post (always good) and I quite enjoy the idea that the scene can be wrapped up neatly in a few sittings.
- Notes - Hah boy
- Forum - I actually got started with forum RPing - but i tend to forget really easily ....
★★★ Skype - anything with a beeping noise is good
★ Google Docs - It's good for logging! - but I need a notification on skype or something when you're done with your post :iconcryforeverplz:... so sorry
- Other 

I don't actually mind doing long-term RPs, like docs or (oddly enough) tumblr posts - but I do need a bit of a kick to get my posts finished.

OOC/Headcanoning/RP Planning Methods:
(hc = headcanon, which is essentially saying our charas will do a thing/have done a thing without actually RPing it out in depth necessarily)
I'm much prefer realtime communication for RP planning! That way, I can throw a bunch of terrible jokes around and people don't get the chance to properly realize that I'm really not funny.
★ Skype - The easiest way to contact me!
- Google Docs - I'll store notes on google docs! - but it might not be the best way to start the conversation for me.
- Notes 
 Twitter - DM works! - but I tend to move over to IM if I want to continue the conversation.
 Text Message - This one's actually a little surprising, I think - but I'm alright with giving out my phone number/letting people text me (to friends only, though), especially to people that have met me in person. ... friends only, though!

Participants
I am comfortable with:
 One on one role plays. - please remind me to post
 Up to three people. - generally forces me to remember to post ....
 Up to four people.
 Five or more people!
- As big as possible! - I'd actually say bigger isn't better: especially when it's a long-term roleplay. But I really like large group RPs, so I'd be happy to participate in them!

RP Style
I am all right with:
★ Lit/Para -  I have to admit that I don't really think I'm a good writer - and I don't think I can really deliver a good meaty paragraph rife with interesting introspection and character motivations :iconming3plz: I say this even more because I have lots of friends who seem to do this with too much talent. but I don't mind doing lit, and I don't mind doing para! - so long as the other person doesn't mind that i am slow and my posts are boring as dirt
★ Script  - Script works for me! expect post to be full of shitty anime icons because i am a sucker for shitty anime icons
Voice - nnnnno nonononononoonononononononnnnnnn

Post Length
I usually write about:
- One or two sentences.
 One or two paragraphs. - I think it depends on the length of the other person's RP: for the most part, it seems like I instinctively length-match other people's posts. Generally, my RP stays under two paragraphs, though! In casual situations, it's likelier to stay around one paragraph.
- Two to five paragraphs. - I'm fond of badly-written introspection (.... anyone who's RPed with Aelia knows . . .. .. . . .. . ), so in serious situations I think I tend towards posts of this length.
- More than five paragraphs. - it happens once in a blue moon
- A few pages worth. - it happens once in ten blue moons and by that i mean haha

I am comfortable role-playing with people who write:
 One or two sentences.
 One or two paragraphs.
 Two to five paragraphs.
 More than five paragraphs.
 A few pages worth. - ah god i probably won't be able to match though.... i am sorry

My partners are welcome to write posts of any length! I just... apologize when my posts aren't up to par :iconmingplz:.

Role-play Requests
I like getting requests from:
 Anyone and everyone at any time! - :iconjunesplz: let's go let's go!
 When I ask for role-plays. - :iconjunesplz: let's go let's go!
 From friends and acquaintances. - :iconspacejunesplz::iconspacejunesplz: LET'S FUCKING GO
- From friends only. 

Corrections:
I am comfortable getting corrections when:
★ I missed something in your/someone else's post: I.... SCREAMS I 'M S O  RR Y PLEASE SA Y S O M ETHIN G
★ I missed something about your/someone else's character: PLEeeEASEEe saY SOME TH I N GI AM S O SO RRRY
★ It's realistic/factual: Feel free to let me know! It's strange to say, but even feel free to condescend - if I'm wrong, I'm wrong! I don't mind. Especially if my character has done something you think isn't quite plausible!
 Other - Maybe I misread a line - or maybe I'm not having my character act appropriately to something? Go ahead and let me know! But I also consider my characters to be very separate from myself, so even if your app has certain information on it, I won't roleplay my characters with that prior knowledge until they've learned it for themselves. (do let me know if i've overstepped a boundary, though - I'm happy to retcon posts!)
- Never 

Expectations:
I expect my RP partner to:
have read my character app before we RP - haha nope don't bother to read it all it's just drivel
- NOT read my character app at all before we RP 
 read as much of my character app as is reasonable to go on before we RP - I'm always quite flattered when people read my app, though. I think it's at least important to know some general personality/appearance!
- read more of my character app as it becomes relevant/necessary 


Romantic Relationships
** Important: Communication is the key to a real life relationship, it shouldn't be abandoned for a fictional on either! Be sure to talk to your partners when considering romance!

Shipping
I am comfortable shipping my characters:
I think something that's important about my "shipping" is that it doesn't always mean a romantic relationship? When someone tells me they ship our characters, I won't take it as a contract sealed, or anything: i'll just assume it means the idea's cute/nice/fun to entertain, and you're free to do that as much as you'd like without me being upset!

(I say I ship everything quite frequently, because I do! I hope it isn't taken the wrong way - I know it can be easily misunderstood as homewrecking :iconming3plz:..... Sometimes it's just really intense platonic shipping. i am sorry)

I think if people are interested in actually pursuing a romantic relationship with one of my characters (... iN WHICH CASE I'M SORRY  :iconsopsplz:) it's just best to let me know that you'd like to ship together - maybe in private, if you're embarrassed! or i might manage to approach you instead, if I manage to muster the courage.. . ; ; ; hgdfgdfg hah god
- Never. 
★ Our character know each other deeply.
★ Our character know each other deeply, and I know I can trust the role-player - A lot of times, I'm happy to just let the characters do as they will - but I think it's likelier that I'll wait until I feel like I can trust the other party a little more before I devote myself to it. It's always nice if we've been talking in private here and there, even if it's not about the RP or the ship!
★  At the first sign of flirting! - I'll admit that I do have characters that're insufferable flirts. I'll ship it in a heartbeat, but whether I'll pursue it is more up to the flow of the narrative than anything else!
 Only if the role-player and I plan it. - this part is important to me, because I don't want to overstep my bounds or make anyone uncomfortable: so at the least, I might ask for consent! It's alright if it's onesided on my end.
 It depends on the character. - some of my characters are just dumpster trash and can't really be functionally shipped with anything at all

If you want to ship with my characters:
- Talk to me about it from the start.
- Talk to me about it once our characters know each other.
- Talk to me about it once they both have some feelings for each other.
- Talk to me about it when they finally decide that want to go beyond hugging.

you can just talk to me whenever it's coo'
sometimes i feel like characters just develop feelings for each other and then we as rpers just sort of sit back like concerned parents, "what do we do with these children? I don't know" and that's always a party
you can just talk to me in general, i'm a lonely person anyways

Speed
When shipping my characters, I like the romance to happen:
- Swift as lightning! 
- Fast, but not super fast.
- Happens in about three months.
- Slow and steady wins the race.
- Slugs know what's up!
 My relationships know no speed. They happen if they happen. - It's usually based on what's happened in RP. I think that tends to take a lot of time. With RPers that I know, the relationship might happen a little faster because we're accustomed to the way we write our characters!: but for the most part, I really prefer it when the relationship is formed naturally, romantic or not.

It also matters which character it is! Some of my characters fall in love quite easily, with multiple people, stupidly and without thinking. (And for my characters like this, I really like it if their first relationship is horrifically dysfunctional....). Other characters simply don't fall in love ever! It all sort of depends on which one of my terrible dirtbags you end up being forced to interact with :iconmingplz: sorry....

Smut
When my characters get intimate, I prefer:
- To skip the act entirely.
- To write the build up, but skip the act.
- To write the act only if it is very special, but otherwise skip it.
- To write the act all the way through.

I really don't have a preference actually, I think it all depends on the RPer I'm writing with. I think I'm more comfortable to adjust to whatever my partner is comfortable with!

Romantic Artwork
When it comes to artwork depicting our relationship please:
- Do not post it at all without talking to me.
★ Post it if it is cuddles and hugs.
★ Post it if it is kisses.
★ Post it if it is much more.
★ Do not post it at all if it depicts sexual acts! - I don't mind if you draw it, but please don't post it somewhere public, especially without asssking first /)
★ Do not post it where I can see it, but draw what you like! 
anything is all OK! I really prefer to see the things you draw though, only because I'm horrible and I love to see people drawing character interactions /)(\......


Dramatics
** Important: Always be sure to communicate with your partner individually if you think you are about to go outside their comfort zones even just the slightest bit!!

Violence
When it comes to violent situations, I am comfortable with:
- No violence at all!
 I'm fine with verbal arguments! - Actually, I'm a sucker for in-RP verbal arguments. I love a bit of tension.
 Some violence, like a paper cut, or an accidental elbow to the face.
 Mild violence, such as punching, kicking, hair pulling.
 Violence, such as stabbings. - If it's something permanently violent, you're welcome to ask first if you're worried. Just make sure it's plausible, and that it makes sense with the flow of the narrative!
 Beyond violence, such as torture and more. - ah you're best off asking for this one, I'm actually quite alright with it though

If you are going to do something violent, please:
- Don't do it at all.
 Talk to me about it first. - If it's anything permanent, please ask! If it's something you feel worried about, please ask!- for the most part, I trust the judgement of my RP partners. But make sure it's plausible if you can!
- Surprise me! - So long as it's not like, hacking off one of my character's limbs or smacking them in the face with a knife, surprise me all you'd like! I'm perfectly happy to adapt.

Dramatic Artwork
- Do not post any dramatic scenes that that happened between our characters.
 Talk to me about it before posting!
  Post what you like!  



Other


Touching
I am okay with my characters being touched if...
★ It's not romantic/sexual. - I'm fine if a character decides it's absolutely necessary to put their hands where they really shouldn't. But emphasis on a character;; - if your character's just a real natural creep, then feel free. I just can't promise a positive reaction (depending on the character, of course!).
Romantic touchy is usually okay.
★ It's not violent. - violent touching is also okay, though - do as you please within reason!
★ It's something that usually happens (e.g.: shaking hands when you meet someone).
★ You check with me first. - No need to check, but you're welcome to if you're worried!
★★ It depends on the character - I don't really mind as an RPer, but some of my characters might have personalities that do quite mind! Generally I'll just play these situations by ear.


Tag
Now tag a few individuals, if you like, so you can better understand your partners!

... hi sorry if you actually read this, very sorry.
No need to do this, of course! - it's just always nice to get a handle on what friends are comfy with!

gosh secret santa hasn't it been a while goodness gracious... Thanks for the invite! I'm looking forward to getting to draw for everyone AND GETTING SWAG YAYYY LOVELY DRAWINGS YAYYYY!

EE. CHRISTMAS. EEEEEEE.
let's see who to ask for...

I write loads of pairs but OF COURSE I'D BLUSH LOUDLY OVER A SOLO--!!!
---------
:snowflake: since i'm already being disgusting another character i'd love is dumb fat Aelia because i love her very much

MAGE: Aelia Lynn by DustBunnyThumper

If you feel exceptionally generous, perhaps you'd put her in a picture as dokifriend with yukihomu's Kohl or lovely lunatama's Loys or as pretty much a lesbian with hinanime21's Sheila because i'm shameless

or well you could just draw kohl loys or sheila and I'd be pretty happy
i'm not even joking

if you're in mage you can probably guess what to draw like i'd be pretty happy if you drew her with your char tooOO IDK LOVELY FACE YOU'RE LOVELY

-----------------------

:snowflake: If you're a fan of tiny shota boys, here's Noel Cheryl Phillips--

CCH: Noel Cheryl Phillips by DustBunnyThumper

And if you're in the mood for drawing a pairing then if you could draw him in 1900's context paired with kimitama's Elsa--in which he's an awkward paperboy and she's basically Nancy Drew--I'd probably owe you my soul for whatever it's worth. It's been a while since I've drawn him, though--weeps.

Refs for that I think are here--Noel has blue eyes, white-blonde hair, a grey newsboy cap and
is
significantly
ten times
more dorky

-----------------------

:snowflake: and if you want to draw a pair of gay people

FINITE02: Viro Simons by DustBunnyThumper and .

or just viro with a cat



COVERS FACE THANK YOU SO MUCH GTHHHHHH MERRY CHRISTMAS MINNASAN
