"why couldn't shuro have just been honest about what he felt with laios and falin it's not that hard" are you. are you White
#dungeon meshi#shuro#toshiro nakamoto#look you can hate him for other things but this is very clearly a case of cultures (& personalities influenced by these cultures) clashing#shuro is japanese/east asian-coded and laios is european white boy#i am not japanese but i also come from a collectivistic society#pakikisama is a filipino value both prized and abhorred#it relies heavily on being able to read social cues and prior knowledge of societal norms#shuro being from a different country/culture is important to his character#his repressed nature is meant to contrast with laios' open one like that's the point#they both had similar upbringings but different coping mechanisms#shuro explicitly admits that he's jealous of laios being able to live life sincerely#anyway the point is they were operating on different expectations entirely and neither had healthy enough communication skills#to hash things out before they got too bad#re his attraction to falin i personally believe he unfortunately mpdg-ed her#she represented something new & different. a fresh drink of water for his parched repressed self#alas not meant to be#i'll be honest the way ryoko kui handles both fantasy & regular racism in dm is more miss than hit for me#i don't doubt that a lot of the shuro hate is based off of marcille's pov of him#marcille famously racist 😭#characters' racist views don't often get (too) challenged#practically everyone is casually racist at some point#anyway. again if you're gonna hate shuro at least hate him for being complicit in human trafficking & slavery#he couldn't help falling for the wrong woman goddamn 😭#calemonsito notes#edit: upon further reflection i take back what i said about toshiro mpdg-ing falin!#i'm sorry toshiro 😭

Post-blood fears
#atla#zutara#avatar the last airbender#zuko#atla fanart#atla art#prince zuko#katara#zutara au#hunters au#Katara Joins Zuko In His Quest To Find The Avatar (But It's Actually A Ploy So They Can Destroy The FN From The Inside) AU#katara x zuko#zuko x katara#atla zuko#zuko art#zuko fanart#katara art#atla katara#katara fanart#katara of the southern water tribe#zutara fanart#zutara art#atla au#Zuko was badly hurt during a mission and Katara's going through it because *gestures wildly at a giant sign that reads “ABANDONMENT ISSUES”*#So yeah#They're so into each other in this AU it's actually sickening#They'll go out on stealth missions and information gathering and they'll call it a date#This scene would actually happen after some Blue Spirit shenanigans... Perhaps THE Blue Spirit shenanigans who knows#If Aang just gave himself up—only long enough for Zuko to reclaim his Heir status. Not long—then they wouldn't be in this situation.#Alas—things aren't meant to be easy when you're double-crossing the most powerful Empire in history without any of the good guys knowing it

I need to finish the second rotation..#ough#art#my art#project sekai#prsk#hatsune miku colorful stage#wings of fire#wof#prsk wof au#emu otori

Cool awesome reminder that you don’t need amazing technical skill to be a good artist/storyteller
#I still compare myself to other people but also like. Damn. What if I don’t need to#That’s literally what working with other people is for . so you can fill in for eachother and make an awesome thing :)#Reminder that Toby Fox is not a skilled visual artist LOL he makes concept art in mspaint#Ik He’s more of a composer / character writer but you know what I mean. He works with other people to bring those ideas to life#You don’t have to be good at everything !!#Txt#art#I say this because rendering pieces of art takes me dozens of hours and it’s literally so much work and I hate it sometimes#Ok then make a simple stylistic choice instead of doing a giant painting !! it will still carry the same or maybe even greater impact#I still want to make awesome giant beautiful pieces of art (illustration) but alas I don’t have infinite energy#I usually only make sketches instead and that doesn’t mean they’re unfinished. Maybe that’s just all they’re meant to be#Until I change my mind at least 🩷#Adhd#Honestly anything that gets your idea across is good enough. Depends on the idea
