uhhh so the number four is associated with death in certain cultures, including japanese, which is fitting for the butcher’s son, yes but just remember neil was supposed to be number three and jean was supposed to be number four ,and in every draft but one jean dies. he is symbolically saved from that fate by dodging the number four (being given, instead, the number three which represents REBIRTH of all things - i made a whole post about that if ur curious) because it means he was never marked for death. so in this draft, where he’s number three, but was supposed to be number four, he comes so close to death - to the point where renee doesn’t know how he’s still alive - because he was supposed to die, doomed by the narrative, but that number three saves him. that number three represents resurrection, and so he doesn’t die like he was supposed to. because he’s not number four, he’s number three. he comes back. he transforms, he heals. he becomes number 29 (i will eventually make a post about jean and the 29)

neil, though, was marked for death. he had the number four tattooed on him, and he goes through his own narrative believing he will die by the end of it. his survival, however, is foreshadowed in the very moment neil thinks he’s about to die - when he is kidnapped. lola burns the number four - the signifier of death - off his face, leaving him scarred, yes, but not marked for death anymore. and so he lives. and guess what: the number 10 represents the start of a new chapter, that one cycle is coming to an end and a new life is starting, one that you’ve worked hard for. so for the number four to be burned off of neil, that tells us neil is going to live. and when neil becomes neil legally, he settles into the number 10 properly. and his new life begins.

It’s such a Minamoto brother thing to stand in the foreground in black and white while their school mystery bf stands in the back in color

(I love how these shots parallel each other (if someone has an idea why they do let me know because honestly I don’t get why the anime did this or why there in black and white))(if you look lose enough it’s literally the same camera shine across both shots)

i keep thinking about how meiko didn't sing for anyone but mizuki until ena5, how meiko existed solely for mizuki, how miku has never been a singer for any of mizuki's focus songs... it's been meiko, meko again, luka, len, and kaito. rin and miku are more associated with ena to me, and she's never had them, but no one has ever had meiko until meiko lent ena her voice to save mizuki… "please act as if i'm not here" was what meiko said in her introduction and it's not until ena5 that she finally makes the decision to exist, and it's specifically bc she wants mizuki to live. bc meiko and mizuki are the same person and same heart.

The prototypes to my Geology Monsters series were these two funky guys from March 2023.

I made the sketch for the marten in the plane from Naples to home, after we'd done a full circle around Mt. Vesuvius and you could really peer into its crater and see how close it is to the metropolis. I had also visited it during my stay there (but it was cloudy all week so unfortunately the view at the summit wasn't good), as well as the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum. That really sparked something in me. These two volcanic beasts were painted the same week after I got home.

Later I picked up the concept again and the monsters became more, well, monstrous. I still like these though! Both are small paintings done with ecoline inks.

I think Flying Scotsman should emote more with his dumbo ears smoke deflectors...

He can move them, so that's an extra emoting element for sure!

LEOPARD PRINT and CHINTZ

and it's a 1990s Daisy Kingdom chintz too

As soon as I saw how close the brown in the leopard print was to the brown in the chintz, I had to put them together. Had to.

The biphobes: whyy is Devon Severance dating such an awful guy, thank god she's bisexual she should just leave him for a womannnnh

The 'irredeemable' man:

well off

writes shitty self help books

doesn't stand up to lumon

kind-intentioned, but ultimately a selfcentred prick

pretentious

The woman she textually wants:

straight up rich. Like, attending galas rich

Evil senators wife

working with lumon to spread severance and erode human rights

created an innie just to force that person to exist only to go through childbirth and then ripped that child from them. Three times

literally met her at the uber-pretentious birthing retreat

Face it, Devon has a type, and that type is financially-stable assholes with all the moral backbone of a dead snail

im convinced the creators of a:tla were advised to create the perfect environment for zutara and do not make it canon so that way the fandom will never die

zutara is not the reason we all show up. no lie. straight facts. but. you know that saying: the face that launched a thousands ships

zutara: the ship that launched a thousand ships

bunter keeping peter from being swallowed up by an evil bog with the kind of hysterical strength otherwise only known by mothers deadlifting cars to save their tender babes is something that can actually be so personal
