As you walk down the Art District of Barton, you notice a quaint Victorian house with a gothic metal fence. It's cute yet eerie in a strange way. You look into the great windowpanes and you can see a simple art gallery. Curious, you walk through the gates and down the cobblestone path amidst the soft green grass. You pause before the wooden doors. Unsure of what you would find within, you stare at the carvings, which depict an insane epic of angels, grim reapers, and zombies in a land of hell, heaven, earth, and candy.

Then the door suddenly opens and you fear that the building is haunted for you see no one being responsible for the opened door. No one but a mini-ghost, which doesn't help your state of mind at all.

You're about to turn and run for it when you hear a "Mu!" You look down for the source and see a yeti with a marshmallow snowman on his head. Apparently he's the one who opened the door.

"Is someone here, Ymir?" an alto voice calls from the back. "Invite them inside!" she urged as, although unseen, you know she's coming towards the door.

"Welcome!" Ymir smiles brightly, gesturing inside like a gentleman. Accepting, you step into the little art shop, [Sickeningly Sweet].

Please respect all Gaia ToS and the artists as well. All three of us are college students who are (supposedly) very hard-working in our studies. [Sickeningly Sweet] was created as a hobby since all of us enjoy drawing and art, but are not, even remotely, art majors. I apologize ahead of time if we're not timely. School is our priority, even if we don't act like it.

P.S. Role-playing would be much appreciated by 3FAngel!

Being a TCG whore that I am (currently), we decided a coupon system would be the most effectively 'simple' way to do all events. Each artist will have a redeem chart, and you can trade in your coupons anytime with any of our artists. Then we'll move you right up to the top of the queue list. This way, coupon holders can mix, match, and pick out their favorite combos!

User Image User Image User Image

Why are coupons special? That's because we'll treat it like an instant art pass! You will receive your at absolute ASAP speed. Not only are you bumped to the top of the list, we might even sacrifice a little poll whoring time for you! Additionally, we could offer special art styles unavailable through commissions. Most importantly, if you play your cards right, you may even get art for cheaper than commission rates! Or even free!

Christmas Auction!

We're having a last minute HOLIDAY AUCTION! (And Yes, I do think talking in caps grabs attention.) Because we love giving, but are too poor to do anything, we're auctioning a sealed and store credit. 50% to 75% of proceeds will go to gift giving on the day of Christmas. The rest will sponsor future events!

Yes, store credit. (I'll make up a cute name for it later, one that won't be confused with the Gold Mountain tokens/tickets.) It's going to be S3's new system for all the random events we'll hold throughout the year! Each artist will have a redeem chart, and you can trade in store credit anytime. We'll move you right up to the top of the queue list. That way, the winner of the auction (and future store credit holders) can mix, match, and pick out their favorite combos! This auction's transfer rate will be: 0 platinum - 12,ooo = [credits] / 600.

User ImageYmir, the Yeti was adopted by Shojin Takaru and gifted to ThreeFatesAngel. He is totally loved and adored and named after a Norse father of ice giants. Unlike his cruel namesake, he's very polite, chivalrous, and considerate. He can speak a few words, but otherwise his speech is quite garbled. He's usually seen as the doorman, opening and welcoming customers in, and thanking them with a bow when they leave.
Seymore "S'more" Puft, the marshmallow snowman, is usually found sitting on Ymir's head. He was adopted by ThreeFatesAngel, and Crimson Petal loves to tease him. He cannot speak but he can lean to and fro and wiggle his twiggy arms and carrot nose. He typically mimics others and is fairly curious. His biggest fear is fire.

User ImageThis is the nameless ghost, 'little dude' raised by DBoyZero. He usually functions as a look out, a messenger, and resident ghost. Unexpectedly, there was quite a few upstairs too, much to the frightful surprise of 3FAngel, the gleeful surprise of Ymir and S'more, and to my annoyance. How DBoy can tell his apart baffles me. It's probably due to his collection of ghost sheets that give him some random paranormal power.

On a perfect day of fluffy clouds and bright blue sky, 3FAngel, Shojin Takaru, D-Boy, and Furies stand before the gothic metal gate that is tied by a giant red ribbon. A very special and symbollic ribbon that is not to be confused with 3FAngel's coveted sash.

3FAngel is hugging a pair of giant scissors excited while Shojin and D-Boy urge her to cut the ribbon and officially open [Sickeningly Sweet]. Furies herself is getting tired of waiting outside in the breeze. And she also didn't think the store needed three mascots. Glaring at them, she didn't think the art shop needed a mascot at all. Ymir naively smiles back as Seymore waves. The nameless mini-ghost, 'little dude', floats by the two silently as usual.

And now, 3FAngel tentatively holds the scissors open and in position after making a big fuss over not cutting her own same colored sash. She takes a deep breath and brings the handles together quickly in the same manner a person would do when ripping a band-aid off.

"We're open now!" she squeals excited as she throws her arms around Shojin in attempts to glomp the poor victim.

"Watch it with the pointy thing!" D-Boy warns as he tries to snatch the scissors from her.

"Good," Furies remarked plainly as she walked down the path and back to the front where she usually waits for customers. Behind her, Ymir pops a party popper and the artists & mascots celebrate by shouting inanely and popping more party poppers.


Officially opened at: 1:22 AM February 25th!
"Oh snap, this is gonna be good," D-Boy grins to no one in particular, "C'mon, little dude, time to get down to business." Turning inside, the small ghost hovers a few feet behind him and follows.

Shojin gave a lopsided smile, urging 3fatesangel to release him before he runs out of air.

"Let's go back inside, shall we?" Shojin turns, his coat billowing in the breeze on his way back into the store.

At the counter, Shojin's head perked up when he heard someone entered.

He smiled, "Hello sir. A request you say? I'll be happy to oblige."

"Please give me some references and what medium would you like?" Shojin asked whipping out a pencil and notepad paper taking down all the details.
