Heyo! 👋 I feel like it's been a hot minute since i was real, so i thought I'd give a quick update.

For the last several months, I've been having some health issues that have affected my interactions and activity on and offline. I've also been in a severe art-burnout, which has not helped. While I'm recovering, I won't be taking any new commissions, art trades, etc. I'll be focused on getting the last of my owed commissions finished and then doing art for myself again.

It's been too long since i allowed myself to enjoy my own art without feeling guilty or pressured for not drawing as a side-hussle. While i DO want to make a living with my art someday, I need to re-evaluate How i want to do that. I would love to branch out and try other things instead of being boxed into one product like some kind of machine. This is not to rant about my experiences with others in my commissions and i am very grateful to everyone who has commissioned me! 💕 This is just something I'm finding out about myself and what makes me happy. I may get back into commissions in the future after I've had time to rest, but i'll be limiting them to what i can handle at the time.

Coming back to the main issue, because of everything going on in my life right now I have been more easily distracted and forgetful, especially with replies. If you message or comment and don't get a response from me within a week, PLEASE comment again as a reminder! I'm very sorry for the inconvenience and apologize if anyone was accidentally ghosted qwq 

Lil event free myo event if you want to look at it ~ https://toyhou.se/~forums/5868.species-discussion/497487.virusytes-limited-myo-event-100-slots?page=0

I'm struggling with connections and need to let go so that I can focus on ocs that I actually want/use qwq I saw someone else try this and I'm not having much luck with my ota purge so giving it a try~

Must read everything below!

Rules/info:

•These are Not fcfs! I'm still tentative with many of these ocs and might just decide to keep them. Please do not harass or get upset if I don't give you a character. I am also still more likely to accept oc trades and art for them.

•Please include a reason why you want the character! What are you going to use them for?

•3 month cooldown! If you don't think you will keep them for at least three months, don't ask for them!

•No trading/selling. Only regifting

•No limit to how many ocs you can request.

•Please include the toyhouse you want them sent to in your comment.

•any folders not found through the links below are offlimits.

Normal freebie folder

Wip folder

Shop folder

Secondary folders

edit: tysm to everyone for helping me rehome ocs! I've been able to rehome 25+ so far and it's already helped me feel less cluttered. I really appreciate the help 🙇‍♀️💕

Edit 2:  closing the primaries folder. Tysm again to everyone who has written/offered for them and I'm sorry if you didn't get the oc you wanted! I'll be putting some of them in the sales folder and keeping the rest.

Working through some severe burnout right now and trying to get myself back into enjoying art again. I've been exploring skintones lately which has been fabulous. I'd like to make an oc for every color, shade, and saturation on the color wheel.... buut for now I'm going to stick with the easier challenge.. That is finishing this lil batch of designs before Valentine's day. 

Do i think i will finish it in time? No, not really considering i started feb 3rd and i only have 1 'n a half finished. 

Will they actually be adopts? With my track record,  yeah no, I'll probably get attached and yoink em.

But anyway, let me know if you are interested in these or if you have any suggestions for the others.

General Interactions 
Regarding toyhouse/social interactions

• I am most active on toyhou.se and can be easily reached here. Sometimes it may take a few days for me to respond to a comment. If I do not respond after a week, it's possible that I forgot or am very busy. If it's important, feel free to send me a reminder.
• Sometimes 'very busy' means I am feeling overwhelmed and will come back to reply when I am in a better headspace. Stress will cause my responses to come out slower. 
• Commenting on my profile or on one of my ocs is the best way to talk to me for casual interactions. Please DO NOT dm me if we do not know each other just to say hi. It makes me uncomfortable.
• Please do dm me for commissions, private/sensitive matters, or concerns.
• Since toyhou.se dms is not the most ideal for discussing coms, you can let me know you're interested and I can give you my Discord instead.
• I don't prefer to give out my Discord outside of commissions and friends since it's the only place I get notification pings.

• If they are explicitly ufo, they will be in This Folder. If not, you are still welcome to ask, I won't bite!
• Please note that anyone tagged "Foreverhome" is literal. They are my permanent characters.
• Anyone tagged "Offlimits"is not taking offers at the moment but you can always ask to be pinged if I lose connection~
• Please be polite if I do not accept your offer. I will block you if you are hateful or rude

• Yes! I am more than happy ping you if I start taking offers on a particular character. If you would like to be pinged, please leave a comment on the oc's profile so I don't forget!
• Need to ping me? Of course! I don't mind being pinged at all! Feel free to ping me for extra tickets in raffles, cs events, adopts, etc. I only ask that we are mutuals or that I have shown interest in that specific oc before.

• Do not kin as, copy, steal, rp as, use, etc my characters in any way/shape/form.
• do not take direct traits from my characters. this includes using one or multiple key features that would make our ocs look similar.

• I can be quite reasonable but if you make me uncomfortable, are rude, hateful, harassing, or demanding, I can and will block you for my own mental health.
• Known art thieves, tos breakers, tracers, and the like will be blocked even without any firsthand interaction.
• I may also block or mute people who post dramatic, sensitive, or triggering content if it makes me uncomfortable so please don't feel bad if this happens to you.
• Please also be aware of your own dni when you interact with me. If you interact with me first and then I see your dni includes my race, religion, or beliefs, I will not respond and possibly block you.
• Other reasons I may block you include: (spoilered for triggering content)
• • Su!c!de mentions without warning, kys jokes/threats, su!c!de jokes.
  • Shipping minors with adults. Sexualizing minors
  • Domestic abuse mentions without warning
  • Excessive nsfw content and suggestive content. Not filtering images with nsfw/nudity.
  • Obsessive swearing 
  • Roleplaying as an interaction with me without prior notice.

I know the next artfight is still many months away but I like to clean up my account and have it ready in advance 👉👈 It's a fun pass time and makes it so that I don't have to rush or worry about anything once we hit May/June. Also, who's to say when Artfight might start occurring twice a year? 👀 Better to be prepared ~

Here is my current roster: https://artfight.net/~4LeafRose/characters?page=1

I'm looking to add and take away characters so that there are not too many up. If you don't mind, please suggest who you'd like to stay or who you don't think make the cut? This is all for fun so please don't think you're going to hurt my feelings! I'm curious to know who you're interested and not interested in. Also, I am genuinely not expecting anyone who comments to attack me during artfight! Just looking for random opinions👌

Here are the ones currently hidden: Do you think I should unhide any?

What's better in your opinion? I have a wishlist that I regularly use and link in a toyhou.se bulletin but would it be better to make it an oc profile?

Pros to switching:

• Can advertise oc for people to comment their ocs/customs 
• Can organize with tabs making list less bulky
• Easier to share in comments by linking ic
• Can add images to a gallery for references
• Change is fun yay~

Cons to switching:

• Another oc profile to clog up my profile and make my Character count look higher than it actually is.
• Will likely spend more money if more people know it exists (bad for budget)
• Too much attention to the fact that I spend money on ocs, turning myself into a target for aggressive sellers.
• Tabs might be too much work for people to look through, resulting in most of the list being ignored/looked over
• Change is bad grrr!

I found this server that I've been needing but it literally just started up and I need peeps to come join it with me https://discord.gg/BGQ93zmjGs

There's also spots to chit chat about Pokemon gaming, art, and ocs so if you like Pokemon at all, please come and be my friend 🙏
