It's a day early but hey, the routine is every other Friday so I can't exactly help it! What I can help, though, is making today dedicated to Mother 3 fanart! It's a very special day tomorrow (or today, if you're outside the Americas!) so let's see what we've got today, shall we?

Happy 13th anniversary, Mother 3!


Happy Anniversary Mother 3! - Faris Marie
Now I normally do these on a Wednesday but today's an exception because this one is dedicated to Mother 3's 13th anniversary! Faris Marie did a wonderful job on this dedication piece - it's cute, simple and pleasing to look at! Thank you for your lovely tribute to this wonderful game!

Hello, there! It's been a while, hasn't it? Hope you all had a non-stressful tax day if you live in the U.S.! Well, it's time for your bi-weekly fanfiction update. Here we go!

  • by Ostricho

  Mayor Gates, cowardly as he is, dispatches Joshua and his friends with promises of a pizza party. Whether they want a slice or not doesn’t matter. Cranks is out there in the wilderness, and it’s up to them to save her…

  The prelude of peril in Penton comes to its end. With the animals no longer causing a ruckus, will the people of Grocken County finally have peace? Or are things truly only now beginning?

  Having psychic powers can be a little weird at times, but these dreams… they’re on a different level. I’m not sure how much longer I can go without telling somebody about them… but will they believe me?
