🎧Kingdom Scribe by Day, Sound Mage by Night
Hiya, I’m Dani!✨ I’m a kind, tomboyish onee-san (big sister) – castle scribe by day. By night, I get my chill on by playing piano, JRPGs, or indie games in my cozy home on the kingdom’s edge.
🎹From RPGs to Piano Keys
I love game music, and I play my favorite game songs on piano. They’re cozy, live performances and practice sessions that you can put on as background noise. Imagine we’re in different rooms of the same house, and I’m playing for you as you go about your day💕 (Tutorials are also in-the-works!)
🐹Dwarf Hamster Mascot
I also have a pet hamster, who can be found either snacking on his favorites or sleeping in his master’s pocket!
🍵Wind-Down Tea Time
Looks like it’s about to rain. Make yourself at home, and I’ll pour you a cup of tea🍵💕
So, What’s Up With This Site?
RPG Nerd and Supportive Voice for the Indies
I’ve been an RPG fan since 1996 introduced me to Lufia II. Maybe I’ll share my love of these games with you by streaming them one day💖 But for now, I’m using my blog to spotlight hidden gems in the indie (and RPG) world.
Relaxing VGM on Piano
Quiet, relaxing game music is my jam~! I can’t sight-read well, so it takes me a long time to learn a new song💦 But I’ve learned that (1) patience with yourself and (2) persistence is key to learning something new✨
Comforting, Comical Writing
Lore has it, the IRL Dani was born and raised in the Midwest (USA), but now currently lives in Japan. Whether you’re in Japan for travel or are an expat like me, I want to write about things that can be helpful, hopeful, and point out different ways for us to enjoy ourselves here🍡
