Oh! I kinda forgot I was still linking to that - though I guess I haven't been actively checked in here for a while. I definitely did get rid of it but I guess it's also maybe the only social I can have a specialized link to in my profile? Thanks for pointing that out; I don't really want to leave a dead link hanging, haha. I'm I guess passively floating around out on Bluesky now.
And yeah, absolutely - I consider myself both obtrusive and needlessly sentimental so those are both things I can appreciate even if you had been either of them. The idea I'm actively scrutinizing is actually I think sort of simple so it's really more a matter of getting in the zone and hyping myself up that it's something that will come off well and be as good as I'd ideally like for it to be - you know, just sorta stuff that everyone deals with for everything lol.
I'm genuinely relieved Lucia came off okay. Her dignity was one of my biggest concerns and it would have sat poorly with me if I'd botched it and made a kind of caricature out of things that are personal and important to me.

Ahh I see, that's good to have clarified, I was wondering if it was just an issue on my browser's end ^^'' I'm not much of a public poster myself nowadays but I have tumblr and bsky for lurking around. Handle is the same one as on here if you remove the U.
And that's great to hear too, I am sure you can do it :3 I've never participated in a jam myself but maybe someday a certain theme can coincide with a pre-existing idea that I haven't used for anything... the time limit seems like it can be either stressful or motivational I guess.
And yepp I get that, with things that are so personal and nuanced you really hope to get it right or to be able to guarantee some of an ideal recognition/response to that effort even if one can't fully control it. She was definitely a fun character so I look forward to revisiting it all in that reread sometime.
