Good morning, dear followers~

Today is Friday— and that means it’s time for the weekly reminder to write, make art, and dedicate some time to the things that mean the most to YOU!

And, above all, what would happen if this character’s life was in danger?

[IN TIME - Writing/Study Mix] is a compilation of my all-time favorite Chrono Trigger remixes. From chill-out to smooth jazz, to electronic and acoustic, the tracks on this mix manage to take the emotion of a classic soundtrack and give it a second chance— rewinding the clock so that you can enjoy them as though for the first time~

So, is this… a writing playlist?

Not exactly. About a year ago I promised that I would share my favorite Chrono Trigg...
