Le Updates~! +Strange coin lore.

HEY ALL! 

I've got a few quick updates for everyone, hopefully we can all get up to speed together <33

Thank you again for being so gentle with me while I quietly had my anxiety/depressive collapse, man that was rough. x_x

I'm back into a nice healthy schedule now, and working through my todo list one item at a time. I was trialing a new trello worklist this week, it's something close to one I did previously but this one is juuust a lil bit different.

New Work Trello

If you guys are curious what I'm working on I'll try to make updates regularly until I'm back to a mostly art-related work schedule and then I'll switch to just the pending art list. But I figure with the sheer amount of stuff pending it'll be nice for you guys to see where my time is being focused- right now I'm aiming primarily to finish those masterlist updates, cleaning my message backlog, as well as getting things back up and running smoothly in the backroom in preparation for the group picking up in activity again.

Workday tracking: https://trello.com/b/57wofRAC/mischief-management 

There is gonna be a lot of "Questions/Discussions" in my list for a good while probably as I'm working through xD I'm aiming to be able to resolve and close my opened chats completely, so they'll be listed on my trello until I'm able to check them off and close them. I have a tendency to leave a million chats open and then it becomes impossible to keep track of things OTL To give an idea I think I have close to 80-90? chats open in my message list atm. xD I'd say less than half of them are ones I can just scan through and close, but we'll see LOL. (Who does this. Do you guys do this? Why do I make things harder for myself lmfao)

I'll try to keep it mostly work related, but I'll also probably end up listing things that take up time I normally would be spending on work just so you guys  xD

Upcoming Patron Sale/Updates

I'm hoping to do a sale for patrons in June that will cover the stuff I missed out on with my lil break (ie, mermay/easter/spring/etc). Will be slightly altered since I missed my window, but I still wanna do bunny ears and fish tails dernit!

Patron currency should be up to date as of today, and I'll be doing the June rewards in a couple days (on the 2nd or 3rd depending on with Patreon completes the pledge processing). 

I also have some reorganization planned for my Patreon page since it's been in a "Just starting out" state for.. uh.. quite a while now oof xD So I'd like to actually sit down and set everything up properly, with all the necessary information and links easily accessible. I know the new pledge process tends to produce the same sorts of questions so I know I can at least make that whole process smoother.

Strange Coins

So I wanted to work out what the "Strange Coin" currency actually looks like so that's what the art attachment is this time +u+ (In case you guys ever wanted to draw your nins with em x3) I imagine the coins can have either gold or wooden swirly inlay paired with a colorful gold-flaked material (I'll add some more examples when I polish up the picture above).  Lorewise these coins are said to be given by spirits and fae, so who knows where they actually come from (I'm thinking they could be Yggdrasil resin though maybe? hmm hmm). 

Strange coins can be oddly formed, but are usually at least mostly circular/ovoid and flattened in shape. They're small enough to hold comfortably in your palm, but they're a bit larger than your standard coins. They often have holes in them like hag stones! Strange coins cannot be melted/molded/dyed/etc at all, so people sometimes wear them as jewelry when the natural shape/coloring is particularly attractive. 

Fun fact! Strange coins cannot be stolen, they can only be given in free will. A stolen coin will vanish whenever you take your eyes off it and return itself to its rightful owner.

Anyhoo, hope to give you guys another update soon, but for now it's back to message cleanup x3. 

Thank you guys so much again!
