Crk oc?

*rubbing hands together* Oh boy oh boy.

Yeah I got one. This is an old reference of my boy Cough Syrup cookie. He's a a lower city cookie from the Creme Republic. Used to be a newspaper boy basically but recently got a job as a news anchor in the upper city.

He's pretty nice but he's kind of like.. well he likes to crack Deez nuts and ligma jokes. It was something I thought was funny when I first made him. Insufferable at times sure but he can be serious.

If I thought about what he would be in terms of abilities he's definitely more of a healer (name makes more sense because of that too). He's not really a combat oriented character but if he was there's that.

Here's more recent art I made of him for this post:

I made him just as republic arc was happening so he's quite old and honestly I've been tempted to change up his design. Bottle cap hat is non negotiable however. I just love that part of his design.

Also! He has a cat named sugar (gets called sugma sometimes). Definitely well loved and a bit pudgy but he loves her.

Sad little starmage. He experiences The Horrors on the daily but it is a small price to pay for tremendous cosmic explosion powers!

[mxwhore]

[theunconcernedembalmer]

WAIT MAN IN GREY IS GONE??? NOOOOOOO

Then besides you. Who else in the Aesop community/family is still alive? I havent been on tumblr much so it was a shock not being able to find Man in Gray anymore 😭😭😭😭

Ah... I'm actually kind of surprised that u think that my blog is still alive (well, barely, but i try) (work is seriously draining nowadays among other life tm stuff)

Tbh I feel like I've fallen out of the ask blog community for a while now. I always say that there's definitely some out there that are vibing, I'm just not aware of them since most of the blogs that i tend to interact with n know arent exactly very present in the scene anymore, but just cos I'm not aware of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Probably.

Oh very late thought but if you still want prompts: Madara Izuna Hikaku are 1 2 3 in the Uchiha clan. Madara and Izuna are expected as Tajima's (surviving) sons, but how did Hikaku end up as third?

Okay I'm not going to write this in prose since I think writing out my Hikaku Backstory Headcanon would not at ALL be a drabble. But I'll summarize because I've been frothing and foaming at the mouth to talk about it.

One of his parents is an outsider who married into the clan, and Hikaku inherited their chakra nature (I've think of him as earth natured atm)

The full blooded Uchiha parent dies when he's very young, but because Hikaku might manifest the sharingan, his non-Uchiha parent has to stay to reduce the risk of bloodline theft.

As Hikaku gets older and starts training, it becomes clear that he's very talented. When Tajima notices, he decides to solve a bunch of little problems at once. He has Hikaku train with his similarly aged sons, and allows them to become friends, making sure that Hikaku stays loyal, giving Madara and Izuna a person who seems somewhat sensible to get attached to, and letting everyone involved in the arrangement get stronger as shinobi

(This also has the side benefit of Hikaku's surviving parent actually gaining some standing in the clan, since her son is friends with the clan head's sons)

As Madara and Izuna grow into leading the clan, Hikaku naturally falls in as their right hand, even though it's not really official. The only person they trust more than him are each other.

Because of this, and because he's easy to get along with/well liked by the most of the clan, Hikaku usually ends up in charge of whatever Madara and Izuna don't deem worth their full attention (which is probably quite a lot.) (Separate but connected headcanon about Madara never having been properly trained as clan head and leader goes here.)

It helps that a lot of the Uchiha hierarchy at the time is determined by things like strength in battle and mastery over sharingan, of which Hikaku as quite a lot of both. And (pointing to the databook) Leadership Abillities :)

So it's not that Hikaku is Literally third to inherit, it's that when everything starts going to shit, he's the one who's able to step in and keep things from crumbling apart because everyone was already looking to him anyways.

Another person asked why I wear a mask at work and I literally don't know what they're expecting me to say. I wear a mask so I don't get sick. That's literally it, that's what I say, and they always just react with a "oh ok".
