I am pretty sure this was self-explanatory on my bio here, but I will reiterate, except with more information:

I don't do requests because I have writer's block, and also to avoid a bombarding of random people requesting me. Two primary examples where I have writer's block is my laziness, and also where I know what comes next in my literature, but I have no idea how to put it into words. As to avoid bombarding, you know how there are random people that don't follow you trying to ask you for a request if you're open for requests? Well, I don't do that here. If I accept one request, then there's another person going to ask me, and i'll have to accept that request too, and then another person will request me, and i'll have to accept that too, and it goes rinse-and-repeat from there. I don't want to burnout. For commissions, I don't do commissions because there's a chance that a commissioner could expose my actual name the moment I get on their bad side. Sure, I go by Ayden Dakarai, but Dakarai is not my actual last name. It was my username inspiration. Ayden IS my first real name, however. But that's all I can give out. As for trades, I can only trade with literature for literature, or literature for art. I can't draw for shit, and I am NOT, nor will I EVER, use AI. The only time I will EVER make an exception for AI use is if I am low on ideas for character designing. Nothing else beyond that.
