I'm Aya, but I can also go by Ayun (eyyun)!
Here are my past aliases that you may know me by:
- Ayyunsart
- PapayaAyun
- Yuna Aya
My main fandoms:
The House in Fata Morgana- Literally the best story I've ever experienced so PLEASE play it if you're 17+ and enjoy visual novels. I cannot describe how much I love the storytelling and characters without spoiling but I promise it is SUCH rollercoaster. It broke me and I cried so much and I'm OBSESSED.Stardew Valley- I bought the game at the beginning of March 2023 since it was on sale, thinking that I would quickly get bored of it and throw it aside. Plot twist; I have been obsessed with it ever since (especially with Shane my beloved).Luxiem (NIJISANJI EN)- I've always watched vtubers, but finding Luxiem the week after they debuted helped me get through the rough beginning of 2022 and I'm forever grateful for that.The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles- I've watched a playthrough of the game! I already love the AA games but this one in particular was just SO FUN to go through, especially with the quirky, lovable characters, intriguing story and amazing music!Danganronpa series- I love to draw characters from this game (especially Komahina). I took interest in this series in Jul 2020 but only got super into it in Dec 2020. I've played all the games.Haikyuu!- HUGE comfort show!! It never fails to make me happy and I love all the characters dearly. This anime really helped me lift my mood throughout quarantine and I treasure it, always.Persona series- The series that saved me in 2017 and is STILL my favourite in my heart! The Persona games hit me deeply and have a personal significance to me so I will always love them.Mystic Messenger- I'm rarely active in this fandom anymore, but it changed my life and will always have a special place in my heart! I think of the RFA as family and love Saeran and Rika.Kagerou Project- This fandom is such a hidden treasure imo. It was one of the first fandoms I got heavily into thanks to it's really cool songs and compelling story! I'm so grateful I found it...
Husbandos:
Fenrir Godspeed
Shane
Ryuji Sakamoto
The top three characters that took over my heart, changed my brain chemistry and completely impacted my life to the point that they're basically just a part of who I am now. They mean more to me than they should.
Shane (Stardew Valley)
Ah, the chicken man... and my forever stardew valley husband. I can't ever resist choosing him every time, I've been head over heels ever since I started playing! And no, I don't romance him to 'fix' him. I love him as is.Fenrir Godspeed (Ikemen Revolution)
My one and only partner since FOREVER (2019)!! I re-live my love for him every time I play his route, which is impressive. He's gotten me through so so much in the last few years so he probably means the most to me.Ryuji Sakamoto (Persona 5)
The bestest and goodest boy, you cannot change my mind. It genuinely hurts me when he's hated on because of how connected I feel to his character... please give him the world, it's all he deserves.

You are free to repost my older artworks from my previous account (yuna aya) with or without permission as long as you credit me. (I would highly appreciate it if you asked for permission though!)HOWEVER, I do not allow reposts for my art anymore, specifically from my current account (papayaayaart), so PLEASE ask me if you are truly unsure if it is okay.Can I dm you about something?
Yes! My dms are still open for minor conversations if needed, but if you're hoping for something more, please don't. If you aren't a mutual, then please don't interact with me more than necessary. Thanks!Can I be friends with you?
I'm sorry, but I'm an anti-social and awkward mess, so I'm only comfortable talking to mutuals. I've made friends with strangers online before, but that took a lot of time that I don't have anymore. Socializing with so many people gets really tiring and draining, which is why I'm limiting personal and consistent conversations with mutuals only. I hope you understand!I messaged you but you still haven't responded yet :(
If it seems that I've left your dm hanging or if I ignored you, I'm so sorry!! This could be due to a multiple of reasons, such as:
- I felt that a reply isn't needed.
- I had no clue on how to respond.
- I wasn't in the right head-space to respond at that time.
- I completely forgot (when I forget for a few days and then realise it, I still can't bring myself to reply because it feels awkward to do so at that point).Please don't take it personally, I'm aware of my inability to communicate well through text and it's nobody's fault! If you truly did annoy me or made me uncomfortable then I'd just block you, so please do not worry if that's not the case.
