About
Howdy, my internet handle is Squidlykitten but you can just call me Squids!
I'm a convention artist with a head full of ideas and characters who demand to be shared from time to time. I'm into scifi, fantasty, world building, learning 100,000 new skills, and tracking down the increasingly rare sarsparilla soda.
I'm asexual but I've been known to draw a lewd on the rare occasion. All NSFW content is locked behind an auth-- you're welcome to ask for one if you would like to see it, provided you are 18+. All sensitive content like blood and guts and angst should also be properly tagged, though that is available within my public galleries.
If you ever wanna draw any of my OCs I am SO into that, trust me. I'm chill with most things, but my favorite OCs have detailed art permissions in a collapsible menu in their design section. Eventually, all my OCs will get one but there is only so much time in the day.
I don't sell my characters, but I'm interested in art trades and role plays! Hit me up sometime, yeah?

My Stories
Chains of Command/Wings of Freedom
A space opera about the fall of an Empire from two sides of the story. Chains of Command follows Kajj, an aged royal guard, who has lived to see the Empire become something unrecognizable to himself, weighed down by the chains of honor, responsibility, and love. Wings of Freedom is the other side of the story, following Teema, a foundling who was raised by a scrapper and later joined the resistance forces in order to acquire medical treatment for her adoptive mother. Both protags have a stake in the game, and both of them struggle with the reality of their circumstances. It's only when a chance encounter brings the two of them together that their universe can truly begin to change...
This story is currently in its second draft, and I have plans to start posting chapters in 2025. Several vignettes set in the bookverse can be found on my TH and also my website. Want a more in-depth summary of the events of the novel? You can find one here.

My Friends
My rotten soldier, my sweet cheese, my good-time gal! Donta is my ride or die bestie. She was at my graduation, she was at my wedding, she will likely be there at my funeral -- or at the funeral of whoever made one of us angry this week. Donta is a DM for hire, so if you've been itching to get into TTRPG and don't know where to start...
Mooncake
Beloved Moon Deity
Moon and I are RP partners and general partners in crime! They are a very mysterious individual, full of lunar power. A connoisseur of blue space elves, aliens, foxes, and elves in general. A fantastic writer and even better friend.
Wormwares
Friend + Fellow Bug Enthusiast
Worm and I met on the RP Garden discord server and we hit it off as fellow bug alien fans! We've been RPing off an on, moderating the server together, and just generally vibing. He's super rad, you should check him out, especially during art fight. Sometimes he even has commissions open!
A good friend of mine that I met IRL. Ki is a sweetheart and super fun to talk to! She can be found trawling the art commissions forums and playing Pokemon Go.
