winter, a large man in some haphazard pieces of armor. he's split down from his face to his belly, weeping blood all over his clothes. text reads: "HARK! DOG of the MAGENTA SORCERER, did you think you'd be allowed the sleep of death? Resurrected to the brink, fodder for the front line, escaped, but for what? With each step, blood and bile leak through your fingers. Your core is acrid, burning HOT, your limbs like ice. DEATH is stolen from you. FREEDOM is a vacuous lie. There is only the DUNGEON, only more to ENDURE, towards a different hell, worse without HER. VENTURE ON?"

mignot, a small woman in a pristine sorcerer's outfit. she looks determinedly at a patch of blood on the entrance floor. text reads: "Oh, Magenta apprentice, sweet secondborn prince, of course your final trial would be this. RETURN THE HOUND, and your mantle, your new body, shall be paid in lover's flesh. RETURN ALONE, and you shall be leashed again to your father, shamed and disgraced. A PITY - neither shall come to pass! The DUNGEON opens its mouth and you shall gladly be swallowed. Yes, you will FIND him. But he is YOURS alone. VENTURE ON?"

(Cw dubcon) The dragon’s lair

bantu and his lady friend have sex on their sides. "But starting his day doesn't have to mean getting out of bed."

part 2~

TN: banten is dwarf slang for big tits. bantu would mean something like titty in dwarf

i should draw bantu and banten together one of these days for no reason other than it's funny that i named them like that.

bantu: my name means WHAT

LOVE leguin

bantu the troll stretches and yawns, a lady troll lays beside him. beneath the image is the text "MORNING" "A water watcher's day begins at dawn, when the gulls' first crying wakes him."

i've been reading leguin's Always Coming Home, an anthropological exploration of a totally fictional culture, and also have been really into studying katsuya terada's work. so i'm combining those interests. i want to do at least a few of these, following a day in troll culture.

it's intended to be more like a fresco or mural but that's tough to convey in three colors, lol. but yeah i want to improve at making things that feel lived in and Specific ive historically been fairly lazy with my set dressing

so if the 1099 says 100, but the earnings say 90, you report the 100 to start with, and later in the process when asked for business expenses and deductions, you say you spent 10. and you do that math for each month and those are your numbers. exactly how it's entered depends on how you file

you report the 1099 numbers bc that's what patreon told the government, but you download that CSV and find the column with "your earnings" and the row for each month on the 1099. you subtract your earnings from the 1099, and you report *that* number as a business expense deduction.

yes.

which part? there's some more instructions in my replies below

had a nice dinner with my bestie

you're so right that's good advice

yeah i was doing that too till i was like there Must be a better way

yup lol i got to like april before i realized where the missing hundo was coming from

if you want to know how important it is for you to do this math: the fees patreon took from me in 2025 add up to roughly 3 months of income. that's 3 months of income i would have paid taxes on if i didn't deduct the fees from the 1099. 3 months of income i never actually had!

thank you for reminding me i need to report my substar income LOL. alas i have no idea and i make so much less from substar that i'm not as concerned with saving money there.

and if you're dumb like me remember that 1099s arrange their numbers horizontally in rows of 2 and not vertically in 2 columns. save yourself from doing your math again.

originally i said to start with the number in the 'total charged' column but that includes card declines, ie money you never actually received. the 1099 number is the correct number to start with.

CORRECTION: you want to START with the numbers on your 1099, and then subtract each month's 'your total earnings' from them. that difference is your deductible business expense.
if your 1099 reports 100 for january, and your earnings are 90, you deduct the 10.

reminder when you're doing your taxes, the number patreon is putting on your 1099 is the gross and they DO NOT exclude all the money they took from you in fees. you need to deduct that yourself as business expenses. an easy ("easy") way to do that is to download your earnings by month

i helped troubleshoot the questions for this survey and would Love for you to fill it out!
