Introductions

I've been wanting to create a joint account with my friend... the first time this idea popped in was when I saw some communities for dj / art circles... and I guess I kind of wanted to do something like that too-- then, when I saw some joint accounts here in DA, i really wanted to push it--the only problem, was whether my friend would agree or not since she's been gone from DA... and wasn't sure if she wanted to come back since I know that DA always messed her computer.. and I know it did to some other great artists and in the end left ;.;

Well thankfully, she completely agreed with my idea... and i'm really excited to start this!!! *o*

So anyways, this will be a joint account for

and

Another reason why I wanted to do this joint account was because I really wanted to bring shin back to the DA community--- *clings to shin and never lets goooo~~*

Boy's Love / Shounen-ai

I am really confused about the term Boy's Love and Shounen-ai.. because I read somewhere a long time ago that shounen-ai was an old term... so I started using Boy's Love to referr my luv for light "shounen-ai" stuff....

but when I read mochimochi's faq about what the terms mean-- bl, shounen-ai, and yaoi.. I don't know what to really think anymore X.x So, either BL or S-ai... I think is all the same~ >__> but just for the sake-- we'll just use shounen-ai or s-ai since that's what shin prefers more and i think more ppl are used to shounen-ai than calling it boy's love ;


Purpose of this Account - ~tea-garden

The name ~tea-garden doesn't really have anything to do much.. we just needed a name, and all the others we suggested were taken... X.x damn ppl who waste good names... but anyways...

The point of this account is to.. pretty much for the purpose to motivate us lazy asses to draw something--if not for anything, at least for each other >__> or do collabs... or anything as long as it motivates us to draw and actually accomplish something XD;; It was originally going to be a bl-collaboration account.. but, I don't think we'll be able to do much collaboration especially when one of us is located on the other side of the earth... so... it'll be just a joint account with some BL


Shin and Mikaii

The first time we met was around December 2002--- at Aku-Tenshi's Oekaki Board. Since then, we've been pretty much keeping in touch and sharing art works... and talking bout anime/schoo/harrypotter/shounen-ai/ and just bout life in general.

Well, for the time being, I think I said pretty much all that was needed... hmm..
Thank you all who have read up to this point~~ and please do expect to see some art work from us pretty soon
