So there have been a total of two updates this entire month. It's likely I'll get up another over my "vacation", but yeah, low output this month. A few quick excuses:

-I haven't had my sketchbook with me for two weeks and I've had to draw on scratch paper

-It's finals season both for school and for crew, we're going to some hardcore regattas and I hate drawing on buses/at regattas

-I haven't improved THAT much this year and haven't been focusing on my art much... it's likely I'll get back into it at some point, but I've made my official decision that art is not going to be a priority for me. writing can and will always come first, personal health and happiness second, crew third, and if that means taking IB Art out of my schedule to ensure I can still function as a human being, then it just... does. 

That aside, I did draw something I was really proud of:

"Long ago, the first instance of spontaneous Sentient combustion was during the Dog Days War, when a fire-based Canira stayed behind to buy his family time when pillagers came to rob their graveyard for bones and potentially kill those within to heighten the value of their haul. Filled with a fiery determination to protect those he cared about, a fire unlike anything the looters had ever seen filled his body and destroyed him from the inside, taking down the entire band of thieves and most of his city with him. 

Ever since, this ability has become a plague on the lives of fire-based Sentients of all kinds. While only species with overt fire-based powers have displayed this capability, the fear still haunts the lives of many who live with or around fire-based individuals. This is unreasonable, as spontaneous combustions are one of the rarest magical disasters... after all, it is rare to find individuals desperate or cruel enough to be willing to set themselves on fire."
