🌺Kh Oc Week 2022🌺

@khoc-week

- Day 4 - Determination/Nobody -

For this day, i had two prompts that really scratch the itch in my brain. Again, the edge-lord i am couldn't help but do some more angst. I was really inspired by this day as you will be able to tell soon.

This day is pretty much 75% comics ahah Thankfully, i drew some of the prompts in advance so they are fully finished i would have simply died on the spot if i did it exclusively during this week honestly Anyways, i hope it will be a good read for everyone :D

Determination

Bunny

Bunny feels really conflicted after all her friends either turn into dream eaters or went into the future. Even if Ephemer is by her side, she struggles a lot with feeling guilty from all the events of the end of Daybreak Town.

Building Scala Ad Caelum with Ephemer helps her lay to rest her past. By training future keyblade wielder in a more controlled enviromen, she hopes to prevent any more tragic events to happen.

Mikana

I wanted to extend on Mikana's thinking pattern as she follows Xehanort's plans here. She does feels the pressure and internal conflict from lying again and again. Leading on people she starts to feel deeply connected to is hard on her but her determination to save her sister is stronger than her feelings.

Nobody

Sika

Sika's nobody, Kasix, is the result of Sika's sacrifice. Where Sika was a ball of energy and positivity, her nobody is far more jadded. The deep denial that her somebody was in seemingly wore off when she turned into a Kasix. Her calmer and more down to earth personality sets them apart from Sika.

Kasix does acknowledge her troubling resemblance with her somebody. Knowing full well Sora - that was set free from Sika's heart at this point- is trying to bring back the girl, Kasix hides her face. They end up bounding with Riku quite a lot. Both are like two peas in a pod, often finding themself confiding in the other.

Pêche

For this one, i really wanted to lean into the storytelling via the colors but few words. A bit of show don't tell kinda thing.

About the comic a bit : Pêche went through a lot in their life. They were Piry for around 16 years then became Daisy and Poppy for a little under 10 to finally live out the rest of their life under Pêche after Birth by Sleep.

Pêche's harships build them to be a individual who has a hard time navigating life. However, after so many years of suffering and shattered relationships, they finally find the comfort of a safe space with Sora and his friends.

To be honest, i created Pêche when i was trying to heal after falling a very dark place. They go through a lot but seeing them slowly healing and walk towards a better life is very therapeutic. They will be happy. They will finally have a stable and loving home with people who cares for them. They just have to relearn to be happy and that's not so easy.

I know, i know i over-did it for today ahah I have to say, i didn't really expect to finish all this in time. It's miracle everything turned out so well. Though, now, i'm a bit burned out :') I will do some drawings for the end of the weak but not anymore comic. Anyways, that was a lot of work so i hope you will like it :D
