LIVE

This is a smol inspection.

@stardestroyer81 asked about a Smol Claiyen, and I was in the mood for it.

Smol Clairessa and Dohren, Clairen’s parents in Tales of Aether.

The Rangers.

Tales of Aether main characters.

Hey! These are concepts I did for our comic Tales of Aether, a 4-issue story about Clairen’s past.

You can purchase Issue 1, 2 and 3 here!

It’s that time again…

… for Part 7 of my Lovers of Aether Incorrect Quotes series!

Man, it’s been a while since I’ve last made one of these posts! The main reason behind that is because I had a whole bunch of incorrect quotes to choose from, so my biggest obstacle was narrowing the selection down to ten or eleven quotes for the eventual seventh part in this series… then, the last two nights happened.

On the day before yesterday, with recently gained know-how on how to use the material dialog function in Medibang (My go-to art software in which I make the text boxes in), I decided that not only did I want to make more custom text boxes, but I also wanted to repattern and fix the colors of all sixteen text boxes I had already made. Needless to say, it took a while.

While the changes are extremely miniscule and would take a close observer to notice the differences in the patterning in the text boxes, they look a whole lot cleaner now, and it’s now far easier for me than ever to make customized text boxes for characters in the Rivals of Aether franchise that deserve more love!

I find that the incorrect quotes I settled on for this post are amidst the funniest and sweetest ones I’ve chosen yet— you’ll see EXACTLY why once you give them a look!

Previous Parts:1,2,3,4,5,6

(Based on a post my good friend @minxxikuomade!)

I used a few of my newly-made custom textboxes here, namely those of Clairen’s family; Dohren, Ren and Issa! Supposedly, there’s now a ten image limit for posts (Unless there’s always been and I’ve just somehow never exceeded it), so I had to save one I originally made for this part for next time.

I hope that you’ve enjoyed reading this latest batch of incorrect quotes, and Part 8 is certainly in the cards and shall be unveiled in due course!

After completely missing the memo that part one had released through being right on time for the finale (Talk about character development), all four parts of Tales of Aether: Future Imperfect have been released, and with the finale having released today, Clairen’s story arc has finally concluded!

And all I can say after reading the finale is…

“Oh my god.”

More or less, Issue Four of Future Imperfect is Clairen’s reveal trailer rewritten to better fit a twenty-some page comic, and trust me when I say that the finale is nothing short of spectacular.Even with the fact that you already know exactly what’s going to happen if you’ve seen the reveal trailer, the finale reveals the true identity of the hooded figure that frees Clairen and sends her back to the past.

Of course, I’m not going to be delving into who that figure actually is, because it— no joke— is the single biggestplot twist known to man. I legitimately screamed “WHAT?!” when I first read it. I was NOT expecting it to be who it ended up being… man, it’s all so COOL.

Because of this, I’ve decided that, at some point in the near future (Imperfect. Wordplay + 100), I’m going to be writing a review of sorts of Future Imperfect, which will feature my trademark ‘multi-paragraph goings-on’ writeups as well as sharing a lot of the artwork that I really liked. I’m unsure if I want to also include a brief recap of each issue— that I’ll have to mull over— but rest assured it’s still going to be a really cool post when I get around to writing it!

In short, though, Tales of Aether: Future Imperfect was nothing short of an amazing experience through and through, and I’m just so thrilled that Clairen of all characters was treated to a comic adaptation detailing her lore to the most minute of details!!

And trust me, you’ll be seeing me going off about her appearances in Issue Four soon enough… you know where to find it.

At last, for the first time since August of last year…

Time for another set of Lovers of Aether Incorrect Quotes!

I’ve been wanting to make this particular part for quite some time now, as you may have guessed, though there are a lot of reasons why I’m just now getting around to it. Perhaps the most prevalent was the fact that I just kept on finding good incorrect quotes— to the point where it was almost impossible to choose ten of them for one post!

But after deciding on ten of my personal favorites, I can safely say that this batch of quotes may just be my favorite of the eight parts— in fact, do you remember when I said that Part 7 had the ‘funniest and sweetest quotes yet’? The ones I’ve chosen for Part 8 take that claim up to eleven!

Before you check them out, I’ve noticed that, while formatting this post, reading each quote without clicking each one’s respective image can sometimes make it tough to know when one quote ends and another begins (Funny how I don’t catch this the first seven times). So, for the best experience, click each image and swipe/use your arrow keys to move onto the next!

Previous Parts:1,2,3,4,5,6,7

So many of these quotes are perfect for the characters I chose them for, aren’t they? Literally as I found the quotes that I used for this part, I would read one and think “Yep, that’s Psycha” or “That’s totally something Wrastor would do”. I think the single most perfect quote of this entire set is Psycha’s 'three best qualities'— it’s like it was MADE for him!!

Around the end of next month, it will have been a full year since I’ve started this Lovers of Aether Incorrect Quote series, and what I’m aiming to do is release Part 9 on that date, then Part 10 on April Fool’s Day, which is Lovers of Aether’s original release date. It’s the perfect plan!

For now, I hope that you’ve enjoyed the quotes because these are definitely my top favorites!
