Time flies when you're making a thing.
Later than I wanted it to be (set to the actual anniversary date for less confusion), I really thought I could knock this one out in a day, lmao. Though I did make a cake on the day. Butter sponge with a citrusy icing.

Also put together a speedpaint here.
If you watch you might notice some the background dancers and the all-Ari band didn't make it into the final piece, but I sent you all to Ari's concert on a separate image instead.

Main story is coming along well, but I've been sick a few times so I haven't really been posting progress. If you're unaware I do that, you can check out the latest one I just uploaded right here. Something to tie you over while Ch15 cooks. I don't think I'll be making my goal of 3 chapters this year, but I'm confident I'll crank one more out before the end of 2026.
Thanks for reading along with me for 8 years.


Oh wow, eight years! Happy Birthday to Leasebound 😀 I hope the cake was delicious.
I love the giant banner, there are so many details to discover. Really looking forward to the next chapter, as well!
STOP THIS IS SO CUTE!! Been staring at this for a good 10 minutes absorbing all the details. Congrats on creating so many memorable characters <3
Rusty, girl, ILY but those poor gyns are barely getting any frosting on that cake! How will they LIVE?!?! 😭 Anyways I’m super excited for the next chapter!! Happy 8 years of Leasebound and I hope there are many more to come!!
