Anyway, this is a piece I had commission by the wonderful Jailbird! <3 This is actually a true story. Around the time I got engaged/married to my mate, I began to have issues with really bad panic attacks. To the point of not being able to sleep. So I would wake up late in the evening or early in the morning, get my breathing under control and try to find something to do before I try to go back to sleep. So one morning I decided to pop in Crystal Chronicles into our Gamecube (for the purists, yes I know, I was playing with 3 gameboys and one real controller but I figured all the same controllers would be easier for JB to draw).

The only issue was, if I played one character they would out level the rest and leave the levels way to hard for them to handle level wise. So in my dazed state I got the wonderful idea to try to play Crystal Chronicles by myself four players. The character controlled with my left foot was the one carrying the chalice... Who mainly just ran in circles in a corner (which was fine enough to avoid enemies). With my right foot, I was controling my healer who would mass heal the party. And my two hands were controlling the main melee fighters who engaged the enemies. I got good enough that I could clear the first level on level 5 difficulty (which was the highest difficulty on that level).

At some point my hubby had woken up to stare in amazement of my controller set up and the fact I was succeeding in the levels. Hence the inspiration of this picture. I knew Jailbird could pull it off!
