Not professionally, but on a semi-pro level, I suppose so. xD At least in that I've done several commissions for real life money and hope to illustrate my own games and books. :B

Also, thank you very much. xD The style is much easier to draw by hand. But I have better success drawing by hand anyway. :B Still working on making the style flow naturally for me, actually, since my normal stuff is either like that ROYGBI-V piece I have in my Academy profile or more comic/manga-y. Working on stubby cute animals is something I've only been practicing for a few months with any sort of seriousness. :B

I've probably been disconnected twice while replying to this. :P I think our ISP has someone bored at work who keeps playing with a switch they shouldn't and doesn't realize they're not supposed to touch it. :P Misery loves company, I suppose? :P You wouldn't happen to be using AT&T? >_>

*spam your profile* Freaking love those tea pics. LOL.

I would reply, but my internet connection keeps dropping out so I'm getting frustrated and sulky and eating pizza and drinking tea. ::share::

And wheee, I'm glad you liked them! They're not the greatest I know, but hey, art is art! XD Besides I gotta polish up my stylized-chibi designs. lol And yay! I want fanart, I looooove art *collects it*~~~~ <3333 haha, I'm sure you draw welllll.

loling. XD Yeah I was here waiting for the notification and going >:T at the screen lol, then I thought, "maybe it forgot to notify me?" but my profile was empty~ I only saw the reply today when I went to drop the chibi XD I always click on "view conversation" to be sure I reply right. XD (I almost replied to my own profile too once... <.<;; )
Yeah, Ashura-ou is great. But he's always dying, he needs to stop that, it's really annoying. XD
In regards to the train thing, well, maaaaaybe they thought they were getting entertainment for the ride. lol (they sort of did, in away ) Or maybe it was common to see fully dressed kabuki actors in 1920s apan, on trains, carrying giant boxes, with somewhat pointy ears. Nothing suspicious there! I want to see Kusuriuri trying to pull that in modern Japan, peak-hour trains... lol

Aaaaand, *slightly hyper today* I was bored out of my mind and since you were one of the first with a full profile on Svalentia I decided to dust off my pencils even though I suck at drawing, haha. <.< So first I drew this one but it was really bad and not steampunk and I was really unhappy so I made a second one which still kinda sucks (and it's still not very steampunk har)... buuuut there you have it. XD;;; I uh, hope you like? XD

I was like "Why didn't it notify me that you had answered on my profile?? DX" and then I realized I was seeing your profile not mine lol. XDDD

Yeah, I wanted to see cool vampire action~ indeed sexy vampire action! XD And crazed Fye sounds interesting *3* *sigh* Shame they didn't deliver on that.
lol at the eating thing. Yes, it sorta kinda is, see, but then even after the 12 hours part of that does metabolize, so you're kinda still partially together. And yeah, Ashura's ending was a little harsh. but that's CLAMP for you.

Hahaha, yeah Kusuriuri's trunk is like Guybrush Threepwood's... umh, I was gong to say pants, but that just sounds so naughty. XD So Vest, yes, GT's vest (even if he does pull things out of his pants XD). It was lolzy when they opened the one drawer with all the porn magazines. XD

I would have paid money to see Fai drink Kuro's blood more. He only did it once, and it wasn't very sexy at all! I mean...I liked it- but I wanted some solid necking! I also just kinda really wanted to see a Fai crazed from holding out for blood too! D:
Eating is...sort of like being together. I mean, you're one forever right? Well, you're one for at least 12 hours- but no one wants to go into that. Being together in the afterworld is sweet, I think- though I felt Ashura's ending was just a little harsh. Just a little.
XD Sexy-Mysterious High. I'm sure it's ultra prestigious- the uniforms are probably mid-drifts. With ties. They're classy, after all. And I think D could pretty much buy anything from him, did you see the sheer number of drawers Kusuriuri had in his trunk?

And, yeah it wouldn't surprise me either if D and Kusuriuri went way back. They probably went to the same sexy-mysterious character school or something. Maybe D buys his tea/incense from him! :P

lol I remember the first chapters of TRC... you know, when Fai "died" (but it was really an amusement park or whatever so he had really only 'woken up'? XD) I swear I went DDDDDDDDDDDDD: at that. I was two minutes away from not reading anymore when he appeared again haha. Damn CLAMP. ¬¬;; So when the eye thing happened it wasn't as shocking. I guess I'm just overall more used to them ripping out eyes. XD (I wish they would've played more with the must-drink-Kuro's-blood thing ).
Haha, beautiful garden to drink tea- That's the kind of ending I like. I guess on the upside, with the Yasha x Ashura thing, they at least sort of kind of end up together (so what; everyone else died, or they had to die to end up together in the afterworld/as statues, but they're ARE together, rite? 8D) Or Taishakuten x Ashura-ou, I mean, eating your lover is a kind of being together... ! lol

loool <3 That all just about sums everything up quite perfectly. (And don't forget the eye-poking habit. It's not real love if no one loses an eye! -- Or it's not CLAMP, even XD). I want a goddamn doujin in which YashaxAshura actually END UP TOGETHER (hopefully without much angst in between!).
lol, but Count D could surely tame a bakeneko, I mean, he's got more dangerous stuff in his shop, right? 8D He'd probably feed it unsuspecting people and the bakeneko would be all sweetness to D. XDDD
And yes, D and Kusuriuri are a perfect match (and hot! XD). I keep trying to convince my friend to RP them with me, but alas, she won't~ lol (then again, I'd probably be all OOC with either or). I would really pay to witness that reunion, though. :P
