I began working on this current version of my website on November 18, 2024. I made a website on Neocities on May 10, 2017, but the site wasn't one with anything on it worth seeing until November 11, 2022 when I added a few song translations and a very small gallery.

This is a personal site, but there's still things other people can enjoy. As long as they like the same things as me, at least...

Not a single character or property mentioned on this site belongs to me unless I say so. Don't sue me, pretty please.

Oh yeah. Here's my Neocities profile link, if you're into that sort of thing. I don't really think about the social media aspect of Neocities though. And I likely won't use Neocities to host my site forever. (What I'm saying is: Please learn how to use an RSS reader.)

Why Make A Website?

I love to yap. Talking is awesome. But. I'm really shy, and on social media I tend to think "what's the point of even sharing this thought" and delete posts, or get embarrassed by things and delete them in the morning.

If I have my own website, which takes more work to navigate than a social media feed, I feel like I'm being less invasive and annoying. I can assume the people who are here really want to be here.

It's also way more customizable than an account on social media! Yes, it's a lot of work to create, but who doesn't love a good arts and crafts project? Personalization is awesome. Deciding how things are organized is awesome. Having my own space on the web is awesome.

Linkback

No hotlinking! Please save this button to your website's files if you want to share my website and/or a picture of a very whimsical Testament in front of flames. And don't forget to make it link back to my website, of course.

Linkfront(!?)

I will link to your site if we've been friends for a good while, if I like your site a lot, if we're Neocities mutuals, or if you link to my site first and tell me about it and I like your site (with lowered requirements from option 2. I still might not though).

If you don't want to be associated with my bullshit, you can ask for me to remove your link/button. I would prefer if you emailed me in that case...!

Code Credits

I actually..... coded all of this mostly by hand! If you notice something funky and you think you know how to fix it, please email me. I don't know what I'm doing.

Some little things helped me big time, though: Simon's Javascript menu tutorial, InetSolution's CSS style switcher tutorial, Ayano's comment widget, and Drawbox.

Graphics Credits

On the landing page: The transparent Testament is from this tumblr user, although the art itself is just official Isuka art.

On the home page: The House in Fata Morgana illustrated by Kanemura (dark mode) and Kanata Kara by Hiikawa Kyouko (light mode)

The icons for the gallery and liveblogs: Tokimeki Tonight by Ikeno Koi (dark and light mode)

The icons in the navigation bar are from here.

Those all are supposed to be placeholder images. Hopefully I can replace them with my own stuff one day. Anything else you see on the site is either by me or has the original artist/source credited somewhere on the same page (at least implied). If I forget something, let me know.
