🚨 IMPORTANT: February CotM Reveal and teasers due March 22nd: Heartbreaker Futaba, Recovery, & Schedule Shift Update 🚨 (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone! I’m finally able to share the teasers for February’s reward: Heartbreaker Futaba! I always love doing holiday sets, and I’m so sorry this one is arriving so much later than intended.
To be honest, this past month has been a massive physical struggle. I’ve been battling the flu and fevers since the 1st, and it completely wiped me out. Because of my Beta Thalassemia, my body doesn't bounce back like most, the combination of the virus and my chronic anemia led to such severe fatigue that I’ve been sleeping 16 hours a day just to function. It’s been incredibly frustrating to be stuck in bed wanting to work but having my body simply say 'no.' I'm finally seeing my doctor to get my blood levels back on track, but the delay on February's rewards was truly a result of my body needing to recover.
Because of this, I have an important update regarding the schedule:
February Rewards: I am pushing to finish these now! The delivery date is March 22nd.
March Billing Pause: I will be pausing billing for 30 days starting on March 22nd. This gives me time to help my mom move (I’ll be away from my supplies) and to focus on my health.
No March Reward: There is no official 'Cosplay of the Month' for March. However, if you have already been billed for March, please DM me! I’ll work something out with you personally (like a bonus or credit) so you don't feel shorted.
April Reset: Since billing won't resume until April 22nd, the April Reward will be due on May 10th. Moving forward, this '30-day buffer' will help me keep things sustainable for my health
Page Activity: I’ll still be posting updates and working through my backlog, including the Keyhole Sweater and Christmas Kawakami sets, as well as January’s polaroids and pre-orders. I might even have a surprise St. Paddy's bonus for you!
My Patreon is a very personal space for me, and I value our communication so much. Please never hesitate to reach out or message me I love engaging with you all and will respond as soon as my energy allows.
Thank you for sticking by me through the highs and lows. It truly means the world!
I know dates can get confusing, so I made this quick chart to show exactly how the next few weeks will look! My goal is to get healthy, help my mom move, and get back to 100% for you all
For my Genuine Chocolate Plus+ ($40) members and higher, here is a preview of the exclusive image I’ve chosen for signing this month!
Personalized for You: I will personally sign this with your name and any specific notes you'd like.
Custom Messages: Feel free to request something in-character as Futaba, or just a personal note from me!
How to get it: I will be sending out a Google Form on the 22nd for you to submit your name and message requests. If you don't want anything specific, you can leave it blank and I'll surprise you!
Now for information on February’s rewards: physical rewards will include Valentine’s Day favors in the mail! I love the holiday sets and hope you enjoy this one. And, of course, there will be stickers like always, Futaba/Persona 5 stickers will be included as stock allows
And I wanted to share a few extra-special previews for my Gourmet Gummy ($60) and higher tier members!
These specific photos are exclusively available as physical polaroids. * They won't be part of the digital set, so they are truly 1/1 unique items for my physical reward tiers!
☕ Ko-fi Pre-orders & January Updates
For those who prefer to order through Ko-fi:
Pre-orders will begin right after the March 22nd due date.
The "Choose Your Photo" Option: Similar to what I’m doing for January’s rewards, I’ll be setting it up so you can pick your favorite photos from the full Futaba set to be made into custom polaroids!
I’m working through the January polaroids and pre-orders right now alongside this set, so thank you for staying patient with me while I get all these physical items signed, packed, and ready for you.
💎 The Full Experience: The Sweet Trove ($80 Tier)
You guys are going to love this set! Because I was inactive for a bit while recovering from the flu, I wanted to make sure this reward was extra special to make up for the wait.
The Photoset: This month’s exclusive set features 34 high-quality photos!
Exclusivity: This full set is only available for The Sweet Trove members and will never be available again once the cycle ends.
Delivery: These will be sent directly to the email associated with your Patreon account on March 22nd.
This set includes a thong reveal tease sequence and some feetsies for all the foot lovers out there!
