I was talking to my sister yesterday about how my characters sound when they speak
And we have settled on T.O.M.O. sounding (at least spiritually) like Nigahigas imitation of a basketball shot clock buzzer! 😂 So rude and annoying
Eeehhhhhh!
We had a good laugh about that
#TakkuTalk
I am trying to work on C.O.C.A.s back story and write her a song and it's all making me verklempt
My characters back stories (minus Dicer) are all pretty sad. And I've never written it out before, but C.O.C.A.s is a heartbreaker 😭 my baby, I promise a better life for you
#TakkuTalk
I was getting concerned since I was burning though my manga buffer and decided to talk to other creators on the Namicomi discord about inconsistent uploads
But it seems like some are a lot less worried about such things than I am.
And that made me feel better about it.
#TakkuTalk
I really like the dynamic between A.C.E. and T.O.M.O. in that they don't like each other but are ultimately both rational people so they begrudgingly respect the others'work even if they don't believe in it.
Very much -i would trust you with my life but we are NOT friends 😤
#TakkuTalk
Cleaned my desk so well my coworkers thought I was quitting and someone said "it's going to snow" (which I think was their way of saying "I thought I'd never see the day") 😂

Happy Pie Day! 🥧
My sister said she was going to get pizza today, and I asked if it was because it was pie day- she said no, she just wanted pizza because it was just there at the location she was going.
And I thought that was fair, and a nice coincidence! 😂 Lol
#TakkuTalk
I was going to be around today, but then I got caught up reading "Dangerous Convenience Store"
It is pretty good and I am very distracted
#TakkuTalk
Sometimes I think on the time where I became too aware of the fact I was actively drawing and then straight up forgot how to connect the neck to the head for a week because it was all in my muscle memory 😂
Does anyone have any similar experiences? Cus that one still baffles me ha ha
#TakkuTalk
My boss and l,
Yelling about how much we love our job
To keep from quitting cus today is ✨crazy✨
Just a pair of gaslighting girl bosses 😂
#TakkuTalk
I came home and took a nap- this daylight savings has run me over like a truck 😭 and work was a down right marathon cus budget is due by EOD tomarrow
I should get myself a treat, but I already (shamefully) ate all that pocky I bought the other day
AHHHHHH
#TakkuTalk
I need a side quest chibi sketch of A.C.E. and Dicer with red strings of fate. I think between the two of them they could be using it to tie someone up or strategically to help get a cat down from a tree.
T.O.M.O. would use his to trip people
#TakkuTalk
I .... May have messed up by trying to rearrange my files. I can no longer save modifications to my chapter 1.
So.... Idk what to do about that 😬🫣
#TakkuTalk
I once had T.O.M.O. joke that A.C.E. should start a moving company - but if A.C.E actually had a job and wasn't doing what he's doing now, that's a solid option for him -"port to port" (near or far, we got you covered!) maybe sometimes the goods are illegal, but that's under the table
#TakkuTalk
The question of "why do all your male characters look like girls" from my mom
Has turned into an essay about style, personal preference, personal history, and historical standards of beauty.
😂 I'll be ready for my rebuttal next time
#TakkuTalk
I love my family and IRL acquaintances but I'm going to need a burner account on Instagram for all the things I want to like + share
#TakkuTalk
I think I've decided how I'm going to split up my chapters for different sites. I personally get tilted if it's chopped up too much, so I'll break the chapters in half so they're not too long and upload the EOC bonuses separate too
That's sounds good, I was pondering that for a while 🤗
#TakkuTalk
A.C.E. knows these things because C.O.C.A. knows these things and she's loud about them lol 😂
#TakkuTalk
I have been slightly addicted to stationary bead scooping videos and it’s only a matter of time before I buy one
#TakkuTalk
The more I try to get myself out there on the internet, the more and more grateful I am for the wonderful community here on BlueSky
Being able to talk and share with my friends and comment back and forth - that really is so SO nice and shouldn't be taken for granted
🫂💖
#TakkuTalk
I laid out the dialogue for about half of chapter 3 and hope to get to the other half tonight
Though I don't do thumbnailing or a lot of drafting, I think it helps really lay out the story, So i tend to use them as anchors for the pacing
#TakkuTalk
At a certain point, we are just writing for ourselves, so we may as well write something we like, regardless of what other people think.
I write my manga mostly for me, but it really is just a thinly vailed way to showcase all my OCs and a strategic way to share pretty portraits of them
#Takkutalk
I was telling my coworker how I finished my cover and was talking about how I'd use it as a banner too, and then they asked if they are usually the same and I proceeded to find no examples where the cover and the banner matched, so .... Well, I'll figure out something I suppose.
#TakkuTalk
My mom thinks I might have cracked a rib when I flew off that slide back in September since it's not better now.
But going to the Dr. To get it looked at is such a hassle 🫠ahhh...
And I didn't go sokner cus I've been busy
#TakkuTalk
I love how I shade, I really do, - but it does make me want to murder someone 😵💫 lol
#TakkuTalk
I am still figuring out Instagram, but if I have seen your account and recognize you I will follow you!
Similarly, if we talk and you would like me to follow you please let me know! - instagram presents me with only so many accounts but I know it's not all encompassing
#TakkuTalk
*gets on a soap box with a megaphone*
A.C.E. IS SO BEAUTIFUL I CAN'T EVEN STAND IT!!! LIKE WHAT??!! AAAAHHHHHHH
ok that's all
#TakkuTalk
Sometimes I wonder if my character's head is too big, but more times then not, it's just their hair (or sometimes it's both lol)
#TakkuTalk
Context: It’s this page btw- so when you see it, please know it took more time than all the others 😂 I’m very happy with it tho, so -worth it!
#TakkuTalk #AceOfCards
That page took more then 16 hours omggg
But I think I'm done with chapter 2, so I will soft launch it to my family for review before kicking it out into the world! We are nearly there!
Very exciting! 🙌
#TakkuTalk
I don't think I was ready for how much nudity there was under the Valentine's day tag 🫣
