So Kyell Gold posted a sweet little number about his 300 copies he signed of his new book “Divisions”. He is totally awesome for signing all those books for those who pre-ordered and going out of his way to make sure it was done in style. Many thumbs up for this dude who gets a A+ from me! CHECK OUT THE BOOK HERE

We’ve mentioned the anime and manga known as Kanokon before around here. If you need a refresher: “Innocent country boy Oyamada Kouta transfers to a big city high school in his freshman year, and from day one, his life enters a world of crazy . First, a beautiful second-year student named Chizuru professes her love to him, then reveals that she is in fact a fox spirit. Frisky and flirty, she suggestively teases naive Kouta in front of his classmates, embarrassing him to no end. If that wasn’t enough, a gorgeous wolf spirit named Nozomu suddenly transfers to Kouta’s class and decides she wants the hapless country boy for herself. As fox girl and wolf girl vie for his heart, does Kouta have any say in this?” Now comes the news that Seven Seas Entertainment will release the first Kanokon Collected Omnibus (Volumes 1 and 2) this April, written by Katsumi Nishino and illustrated in black & white by Rin Yamaki. You can pre-order it at the Sci Fi Genre web site.

Not sure if I'm allowed to do this here, but may as well try... Feel free to downvote if you don't want this here.

Specs Video of suit photos| Original Maker's FA submission | Fursuit Review

• resin head

• fits 23" head

• very responsive jaw

• resin eyes

• comes with head, 3/4 arm/paws, and tail

I paid $800 for it new. It's seen maybe 4 - 6 hours of action (non consecutive). No parts are damaged. It's a little over a year old now. I'm the first owner.

Willing to trade for a bunch of art commissions (You must be able to draw humans) or partial payment + art. Payment will be taken via paypal only.

Mirror links to help spread word:

Tumblr post| Original FA Journal Post | FA Submission post

If you're interested in this suit, Note me on FA, comment on the journal entry on FA, comment on the FA submission, or comment on the reddit post. Don't PM me on reddit or tumblr, please.

What I'm looking for in an offer

I'm not really looking for any real amount of money, as I don't need money right now. I'd really like some art though. Please value your own art, and then offer me something like "2 full color traditional, 3 digital busts, etc., etc." If you can't commit to so much art, you can offer a partial payment of cash (say $200) and then some art with that.

As far as art styles, you need to be able to draw humans! I like semi-realistic, cartoon, and some anime, but not overly cute anime. You can look at my art faves from FA and dA to get a feel for what I've liked in the past.

Things You'd Most Likely Be Drawing

I'm looking for people who can do the following things:

• (human) character refs/sheets

• manly/masculine men

• action poses

• comic panels/pages

• gore/violence/guns

Nothing you draw would be over a PG-13 rating, and you're free to decline to draw any of the above things. I will work with you. I will never ask you for porn.

The characters I'd be asking you to draw would likely be the following:

• Q (human gunner)

• Lori (human/dragon trickster/thief)

• Jiden (human cyberpunk character)

• Greyson (rabbit anthro)

Depending on your offer, I may ask for different characters or group art.

I have many ideas for art already, so how it would work is basically, you give me offer, I tell you what I can fit into that offer (as far as poses, characters, etc.), you agree/disagree, rework if necessary, and then I leave you alone to do your work. I'm pretty easygoing after we agree on something. I only ask for an update if I haven't heard from you in a month.

I think that should cover it... Feel free to ask any questions.

Completely unrelated, I have weasyl invites. If you want one, PM me your email (via reddit or FA).

Xiath: Here we are! A new episode of FursonaPod! Sorry for being late with this episode. Rainstar and I both decided to enjoy our holiday break with our families and loved ones. We also had a hard time recording this episode. It took us literally a full week to record all of the parts. This episode was actually recorded on three separate days!

In this episode Rainstar and myself discuss animals. We get kinda deep with some of the questions even.

Here’s an important announcement! The March episode of FursonaPod is going to be a Listener Special! What that means is we want you, the listener, to write questions pertaining to the fandoms to us via email. Keep them clean and keep them simple. We want to have a bunch of mini topics that we can discuss in the span of about 10 minutes each or less. So get to work and send us mini topics!

Remember to send us listenermail!

Dear Papabear,

I really don't know how to start this off, seeing as this is the first time I had absolutely no idea what to do in my life. Let me just start with this, right now I am with someone and we are ... well let's say a little distant right now. I try my best to talk to him as much as I can, trying to make sure I can be there for him, you know. The problem is, he just doesn't seem into it anymore, and I don't know if I am either. I can't say if I still have the feelings now that I did for him when I first met him. This isn't the only thing that is wrong with this relationship, though. On more than one occasion, I have caught him in a kiss, or doing something with another guy. He keeps telling me that he wants us to have an open relationship as well, and I don't if that means I just can't satisfy him anymore or what. I am too scared to break it off just yet, I honestly don't want to be alone. Unfortunately though, there is another part to this problem.

This is sort of related to the last problem, but not really. You see, I have this close friend, who is really like a brother to me in all honesty. I am starting to have some really strong feelings for him, and I don't know if he feels the same way. I am honestly just too scared to ask him. I don't want to lose him or have him hate me. This seems like one of the most standard problems ever, being that you like someone and you think they don't like you back. I know this is probably asked a lot, but I still haven't found an answer that works. He means the world to me but I just don't know if I should take a leap of faith and break it off with my current mate and try with my close friend. Please help, anything is appreciated.

Dear ADN,

Papabear receives letters like yours from time to time, and they are basically looking for the same thing: some reassurance and a little dash of courage to do what they already know in their hearts needs to be done. They just need to hear it from someone else first.

Your quandary is mostly driven by fear: fear of being alone; fear of turning off someone who is a friend and losing them, too. Fear is the worst decision-maker.

Regarding the former, you and I both know that your current relationship is pretty much done and over. You don’t feel much love for your mate anymore and (actually this makes it much easier) he isn’t feeling it for you, either. That’s okay. Sometimes a relationship that starts out hot and heavy fizzles out for one or more of many reasons. It happens. Let him down gently and tell him he can now be as open as he wants because you’re not his mate anymore. If possible, keep the friendship alive. Good friends are hard to find.

The second problem is more difficult. I’ll assume this “brotherly” guy is single, so you wouldn’t have to break up a relationship to have him. It is plausible that he hasn’t made a move on you out of respect for your current matehood. So, here’s what you do:

1. Break it off with your current mate.
2. Tell your good friend that you have ended that relationship and are now single again. See how he reacts.
3. Now that you are not spending time with BF #1, hang out more with potential BF #2. Don’t leap into his arms or (worse) into bed with him. Just do fun things with him; the things you both like to do. 
4. This way, you won’t be alone. Be patient. You know this guy and Papabear would wager that you will notice if you see a glimmer in his eye and a little sparkle in his grin. That’s the signal for when you ask him if he might like to take your friendship a step further.

Try it out. Remember, the best mates are not only your lover but also your best friend.

Wishing You Love,

Papabear
