My First Tumblr Post, Redrawn.

This is an Illustration of a scene from a user named @katoninetailswrites story called You Made Me A Believer on AO3

I named it The Waltz, and it was my first post to Tumblr on the 25th of November 2023.

Here is the 2024 version.

I gave myself liberty to change up the scene a bit from the first one, but it still holds the same message.

Stand Still Stay Silent is still quite special to me as its one of the only things i remember reading from secondary school and actually enjoying, an area of my life where it feels like some things from my memory had been "wiped". Emil and Lalli is essentially my comfort ship, and I cant shut up about it LOL.

Emil

I'm so late for this fandom, but I just finished SSSS and it was so. fricking. good. I binged the whole thing in 4 days, haha.

I seriously can't pick a favourite out of the main cast so I'm just gonna draw them all. Decided to start with Emil because Mr. Sparkly Hair just has to go first.

Apologies for the bad quality, my phone camera is doing its best, desperately. I put my tag upside down too, but I'm too lazy to fix it. I hope I'll have time to redo this digitally later.

No, but at the same time, if you encourage me, I keep going with my silly drawings :)

Sacrament To Be Taken With a Kneel.

A fan art of @trashpocket's His Dark Materials / SSSS AU where Lalli is a theologian and Emil is an angel. The story is called Of Stars and Open Windows on AO3.

I wanted to show the love struck look a lot of people do when they see their beloved, but i always wanted to play with some metaphors. The posing was from a sculpture that I had been admiring for quite some time, because it gave me a sort of equality yet worshipping vibe. Angels in religion are beings that worship the God of said religion, doing their bidding as subjects, and some people worship the saints, who, according to my understanding of religion, are like angels who do the Gods bidding on Earth in a more physical sense.

But I made Emil be the one bowing to Lalli, worshipping him and admiring him, looking him in the eyes. Emil is nude, but in a beautiful and confident way instead of a sexualized way. His wings frame the picture, leading us to choose to look at his face or Lalli's, but his other wing wraps slightly around Lalli, as if to protect him or shield him away from the light in the distance.

Lalli parts away his hair to see his full face and enjoy the perfect feeling of the strands in his hands, and his shirt is undone as if to entice Emil to continue admiring him, tempting him into never stopping, into staying.

(Emil is supposed to be glowing all around, but i took inspiration from a painting, and because it wasn't the composition i had in mind.)

Dude it is SO FUN and EXCITING to see a reoccurring reader. If you've commented a handful of times on an author's work, I guarantee that they recognize you. You can't imagine how many times I've excitedly informed my friends "the person with the funny cat image commented!" "- anon is back!!!!" and the friends've recognized who I was talking about because I talk about my commenters so often LOL. We love you all!!!

If characters were the actors to their anime/ book/ game etc (SSSS edition)

Emil's actor had trimmed his hair after shooting the SSSS film because of split ends that appeared from getting wet several times.

Because his voice is very soft and raspy, Lalli's actor has to have more than two mics close to him depending on his mood.

I saw this type of meme in the AOT community a year or two ago where someone suggested that the characters were actors for the AOT series and had drawn some blooper scenes. I honestly don't think Lalli the character would be able to stand an interview, but maybe his actor (i know some autistic people are really good actors and can perform because they learned social queues and earned confidence and can express how they feel) would be able to answer some questions about the film.

Emil and Lalli from @trashpocket's story The Sugilanon of Lalli's Woe's (and Happiness). I read this about a year ago and i absolutely loved it (no spoilers if you want to read it too.) I was (and still am) in love with exotic cultures, and Philippine history and fashion was what took the cake for me.

flat colours (I was feeling like dying because the effort i was putting into this was actually burnin me out)

I had done concept art for Emil and Lalli's outfits the year I read the story, and I wanted to give them distinguishable features and clothing that would fit their social backgrounds, but i dimmed these down to make them look more casual (a little)
