It was a nice quiet birthday spent drawing and lounging around. For me that made it a perfect day.

Makes me nostalgic. It has been a very long time since our boys used to play together.
Thank you, I had a great birthday. I was nice and quiet, just how I like it.

Hello~~ Thank you!
I don't draw very often anymore, so I can't guarantee completion enough to take requests. But you can make a suggestion if you'd like. It might inspire me to actually do it.

Hey, just saw.
Why the name change? Is that your real last name?
And as I say that I wonder if Arai is your real first name.

Hello~~
It's not my real anything name. Arai-hime was a name/alias I chose for myself years ago in high school (before I was ever on DA). Back then I didn't know any Japanese but I chose the name from a list of Japanese words my friend had; Arai meaning "rough" and Hime meaning "princess". When I was a high school freshman the seemingly contradictory ideas of the two terms amused me.
Since then I've studied actual Japanese. And while I still like the sound of Arai [荒居, from the characters for rough/rude and to exist], I no longer like the idea of being refereed to as hime. So I chose to change it to Chuusei [中性, for neutrality/androgyny].
I've been going by this name on any new sites I join for a while, and finally decided to change it here as well.
And Arai is the last name, Chuusei is the first.

Aaahh. More light than I expected.
Thanks for answering me. It even makes sense to me.
I wonder what it says about me for keeping the name I have for almost two decades?

arai-chuusei In reply to jemgirl [2016-06-07 20:02:17 +0000 UTC]
light?
I dunno. That you really like the name and/or still identify with it?
You gotta wonder how many people would or wouldn't change their legal names if it wasn't such a hassle to do so.
