“I don’t know if I’m the leader you deserve, or a good leader, but I’m willing to dedicate the rest of my life to doing whatever I can for all of us. As long as Vox Machina stands by my side.”

This is my favorite photo of myself from the shoot. It makes me feel so beautiful.

Went to see some plants and found a feeling of connectedness to the wider world. Meet the floss-silk tree, native to South America, producer of soft, useful fiber, and called in Bolivia “toborichi,” tree of refuge, for the goddess who, according to legend, gave birth to a son within its trunk, to protect him from evil spirits. The son survived, but she remained trapped within the tree. A reminder to live my life fully after I’ve released my sons into the wild? #ucla #cooltrees @uclabotanical @aucklandzoo

Did you know there’s a secret garden hiding in Westwood? 🌿 Tucked into the UCLA campus, the Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Garden is full of winding paths, lush greenery, and quiet little spots to wander and dwell.

Definitely one of those hidden LA gems worth knowing about.

“If you will have me, I am yours, Keyleth of the Air Ashari.”

Here is our Keyleth and Vax’ildan wedding cosplays based off a brief image in season 4 of The Legend of Vox Machina! Those looks consumed my brain ever since I watched the episode and I am so thankful Paula was able to bring them to life for my birthday!

New Keyleth cosplay! It is based off the split second Vaxleth wedding portrait from The Legend of Vox Machina season 4! Wearing Keyleth is like coming home. Jon did such an amazing job with the photos and I cannot wait to share more of them.
