Spent over 3 hours redrawing a meme because I need to practice translating Persona characters into my style, and I knew it would amuse @shadowfreak98

You might've seen this beginning of May on the Daily Shinjiro twitter account the day after I finished this, yea the queue is set up weeks and weeks in advance pft

Based on / redrawn from a meme but I have no idea who originally made it, so don't wanna include it without credit. Feel free to let me know and/or include it in a reblog!

Alts and textless under cut

i will like forever stand by the fact that self-insert art is good and helpful honestly. call it cringe or whtever but at the end of the day you need to realize that drawing yourself or writing yourself into your favorite media that makes you happy can be incredibly healing. there is seriously nothing wrong with wanting to experience a bit of a reality in which u live a life that is with your favorite character ever even if its "weird" cuz honestly who the fuck cares. make urself happy. let yourself have that singular pleasure of imagining yourself with someone or something that brings you comfort outside of this world that is not nearly as kind

You know, an interesting tumblr transformation that's happened gradually, and which I've seen no one talk about: ask-culture has essentially dropped off to nothing.

By which I mean, asks used to be WAY more of the tumblr economy. They used to be more common to send, and receive, and see. They were integral to the collaborative, forum-like behavior of old tumblr communities, not even to speak on the HUGE number of ask-blogs that used to exist to only be interacted with in ask-form.

I'm not saying this in a vying-for-attention way but instead in an observational way: I used to get way way more asks in like 2015, even with a fraction of my follower count. I wonder if it's due to the homogenization of social media sites? There's a lot more of this divide between "content creator" and "consumer" instead of just a bunch of peer blogs who would talk to each other. "Asks" aren't really a thing on twitter, are they? And as I understand it, the closest thing to an "ask" on instagram or tiktok would be a creator screenshotting some comment and responding to it in a new reel or video or whatever those content mediums are. Are asks just too tumblr-specific? Is that aspect of the site culture dying out as more and more people converge to using all their social media sites in the same way?

Noooo don't imagine kissing your f/o all over their face until they're a blushing mess. That would be so bad if you did, who knows what the consequences would be!!

Don't imagine them doing it to you either, under any circumstances!!!

to just lie in bed with your f/o...

the both of you splayed out among the sheets and blankets, hands linked as you talk about yourselves, your days, the future... anything at all. it comes to you so easily with them.

turning to look into their eyes to see the most loving gaze reflected back at you... their soft, tender smile as they sidle closer to you in bed. pulling their hand away from yours only to wrap their arms around you, blankets and pillows and them surrounding you in a comforting shell.

cuddling as the both of you wind down for bed, your conversation becoming peppered with yawns. the giggling and teasing over who's sleepier.

the moment they catch your eyes fluttering as tiredness overtakes you, their adoration written all over their face. a hand reaching up to cup your cheek, eith their thumb rubbing soothing circles that lull you deeper into sleep. try as you may, the earlier banter melts into hushed whispers and low hums of comfort as your beloved grows sleepier and sleepier with you.

as the two of you drift off to sleep together, the last thing you register is the safety and comfort of their arms wrapped around you, the rise and fall of their chest steadying you.

Wouldn’t it be nice to just take a nap on your f/o while they lay on the couch watching a movie and there’s a heavy rainstorm outside. Imagine feeling the weight of their hand on your back and their chest rising up with each breath they take.

Bonus points if your f/o is significantly taller than you, making them a proper bed.

The best trope in the world is when a character realizes that they’re in love with another character and instead of being bashful or cute about it their internal monologue is just “NO. GOD. FUCK. WHY”

Sensitive Self Shippers, this one is for you <3

💫 They’ll always be around to comfort you, no matter what upset you. They’re ready to listen.

🌙 They’d never tease you if you were uncomfortable with it. Your f/o(s) would never push your boundaries.

☀️ You’re their sun & moon, if anyone made you upset they’d be there to help pick you up (and maybe beat up the person who upset you idk)

🪐 And they would never ever think you being sensitive is annoying. They love you so much and they hate to see you cry.

Pr/oship dni please

f/o who doesn’t know they’re touchstarved until they meet you.

the heavy want grows in their chest and is absolutely undeniably there whenever you two even just briefly touch. when you’re so close that they’re so desperate have you closer, wanting to feel their body pressed against yours in a tight embrace, that the thought of your hand in theirs is barely enough. when you two finally hug, or whenever you do, they sink into your embrace almost immediately, a deep sigh of content heard as they wrap their arms around you to return the tender hug. it’s a little hard to get their arms off you afterward, with those small mumbles of “just a little longer” and “i don’t want to let go yet.”

maybe they’re super embarrassed about feeling so at first and are so glad whenever you indulge in their desire to have you, to feel your warmth. or they’re incredibly stubborn about it but their actions always say otherwise, finding every little chance to have their skin touch yours, to quietly tug on your sleeve or any other sign that you immediately know what they want with it.

eitherway they’re forever thankful that you’re so understanding. with the little touches you guys end up doing like from simply pushing a strand of hair behind an ear or running fingers through each other’s hair, they’re absolutely addicted. smitten, even, so incredibly much that they can’t put their love for this, for you into words.
