Marcille — "The more damaged the body, the shakier the soul bond."

Thank you all who came to me and praised me for my cosplay! It truly does mean so much knowing that what I made is worthy of praise! I hope to wear this again soon!

Drawing my cosplays! This piece
Falin - Dungeon Meshi

Lowkey I wanna start drawing out cosplays into cheap or free merch to give people at cons or events where I'm cosplaying. But I don't know if there's much demand for that kinda thing.

The body, the heart and the soul. For someone to share every bit of it so openly, could be considered selfless, for they hold no secrets from the ones they let in. taken in 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙈𝙤𝙤𝙣 by @bittersproutss

"Ad astra per aspera" to the stars and through hardships. The amount of times I have looked at the things I've created throughout my life and questioned "why do I keep going?" I told myself in 2026 I would not attend any new cons or make any new cosplays so I could focus primarily on things like work and school and finding myself again. But in that, I found that I actually lost a lot of myself, restricting myself to be nothing more than a workhorse. But every time I attended a con and met friends, I got that taste of community I wanted so badly and just couldn't stay away.

I took feedback from past judges on this cosplay and instead of feeling sore and defeated about it, I stepped up close to find the areas to improve and while working through these improvements found inspiration from peers to bring the entire outfit to the next level. And that proved to me that I can really do everything, even with a limited space and with limited funding. Today I proved to myself I was worth the time, when I was bumped from journeyman to masters and won. I tackled tasks and skills that terrified me, that even me from a year ago would refuse to even attempt. I have never done a helmet wig before, I had never done drill curls before this. I had never put over 1,000 pearls onto anything. But it was so worth it.

I can only hope to keep reaching to learn new skills in my future, and continue to learn from my peers.
