Going by what you've said in the past (mainly about not wanting to be a super big serious artist guy), I wouldn't do it if I were you. Patreon looks like it's more for those super big serious artist guys who want to devote their lives to art. Besides, as you said you've got college coming up.

Also a good point.

You deleted all of PC's asks? I guess that means you never got the link to download the wallet.dat with 100 bitcoins in it, then? Oh well, it's gone forever now.

Nice try anon.

I downloaded it when I first got it. :P

Hey Cactus, I know your family is from Peru, but do you know your ancestry? I just thought of how cool it would be if you were descended from the old Inca Empire.

Asked by Anonymous

Both my parents are Mestizos (meaning that I’m one as well), meaning that we have both European and Amerindian ancestry. Mom’s side trends more to the Amerindians, and my Dad’s side trends more to the Spaniards.

Also, one of my friends is also Peruvian, and her mom’s family is descended from the Andes regions (whereas my family is from the desert coasts and ports). They probably have more Quechua/Inca blood in them than I do.

YOU'RE DRAWING MORE SPIKEBELLE? HOLY SHIT WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY SO EARLIER it's my favorite ._.

SpikeBelle is a good ship, yes.

And there might be more coming soon. o3o

Here's the thing about Inkbunny: It's not very well-known outside of the MLP and furry fandoms, and even then it's mainly used by R34 artists who produce one particular kind of smut. So both the artists and commenters are gonna be there for the same thing, leading to increased harmony vs. general-audience sites like DA.

I actually never considered this, despite being very true and kinda obvious.

And it’s true for many places other than Inkbunny.

Gracias, Anon.

Hey, Cactus, it's me, ME, from your stream last night, the guy without a tumblr or an OC... Anyway, do you have a next stream planned or will it just be told here as you start?

Asked by Anonymous

I *may* have one tonight.

Maybe.

I’m usually random with these streams and it’s really up to my mood and motivation.

I'm not the only one who would like to see a post-cactus livestream, amiright?

I actually do host streams. I just don’t do them as often as you’d expect because of stage fright and only 7-10 people actually attend anyway. ;3;

Know what I realized just now? After yesterday's episode, PC Sweetie Belle being a student of Twilight's actually works very well. That was definitely a lucky plot point for Post Crusade.

Shit, this is late.

Yes, that was a lucky shot in the dark. PC’s been getting a lot of help from canon as of late. Scootaloo’s flight problems, Apple Bloom’s annoyance with AJ’s mommying, Sweetie’s magic lessons from Twilight, and Sweetie’s sudden switch to being more manipulative and scheming.

:D

Concerning your earlier question, how old are you? These things tend to happen at certain ages.

I am 16 (turning 17 in a few days).

On a scale from "hyped" to "super fucking hyped," how excited are you for this week's episode?

But it's only March. Worst you've felt all year so far. >:)

Asked by Anonymous

Yeah, there’s that.

But I prefer to not have breakdowns and suddenly feel like complete shit in a span of 10 minutes.

And I prefer to not expect any more.

You're gonna have to tell us what those are, Mr. Cactus. Going by what I know of Spanish, it looks like that's some sort of confection or other sweet thing.

CHIFLES (chee-fless)

Fried plantain crisps! Served with cancha (roasted corn/maize) They taste like potato chips, but are slightly sweet.
