#I cannot properly articulate how thankful i am ily

[hummingjay]

Heoooo read through ur kasuars posts again and i know its been said before but i love ur goobers so much.theyre rent free in my head imagining them living together in a cadre and just doing mundane stuff. I dont have anythin specific to ask but if u wanna yap in any capacity take this as the opportunity :p

THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUU YOU REALLY DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH THAT MEANS

I was gonna make a comic but I don't have the time and I DO wanna not leave the ask just sitting there fore a week+ so here's an old Eddie study on anatomy that I intended to scrap. It's old and rough and I changed my artstyle for the 124th time since but here anyway-

It's not perfect and I'm coming with newer (better) Eddie content trust (actually there's a WIP right now trust me)

ANNND Eddie yap!

I think I've been neglecting Eddie and that makes sense since she's the wallflower of the group but I love her so much. Random facts about her, this one I did mention that she hangs out with Protektor Starlings and Storches and a couple wanna smooch, and she's completely oblivious? Well, that's cause Edward is very charming and HOT. As in Millie is cute hot and Cricket is boogeyman hot- Edward is hot hot. Especially when she actually shows her face.

She's also a really good listener in general cause she's so quiet. She's always the first to check in on Cricket whenever she's too nervous to sleep, and lets people ramble on to her and actually listens to them. She's pretty expressively passive too, like cricket but just in a 'Well I don't have much to say' instead of 'entity haunting us' passive.

So she's just pretty calm. After she got her sword she started training with Eiche, and though they use very fundamentally different swords it works out somehow. She has a thing for reading, and ends up borrowing books from the Storches (who are very happy to lend her one) and if she could leave the war she'd start a bookstore.

Like Eiche, she's painfully aware of the reality of the war and her status as a soldier-slave. Eddie knows that the Nation is a heartless entity, especially to the scared imperial citizens she deals with after capturing one town or another. She knows she's a slave of the nation and there's nothing to do about it. She's going to work and fight for a nation that will replace her in a day after she dies a horrible painful death and she's come to terms with it. She believes that as bad as the nation is, she's fighting for a sense of peace, that though under the ruthless fist of the nation, is better than living in fear of bombings and war. She doesn't know what will happen to her after the war is over, (what will happen to the frontline soldiers if there's no front?) and refuses to think about it.
