It turned out pretty well but honestly I could adjust the colors better

Okay listen I respect everybody’s preference. But as a hardcore Enkidu x Gilgamesh fan artist this shit just too real too funny I can’t 🤣

(Can’t help being a bottom Gil stand. It’s genetic. No use bending it.)

Do you think Evbo learned how to do those jumps and thought "oh this is so sick what's the best way I can show off my parkour skills"

Yorha android Miku, aka 39B

This drawing is the singular reason I have failed inktober. HOW could I concentrate on anything but this?? She has consumed me I fear

(Yes her sword is a leek version of Virtuous Contract. YES she is standing on a pile of leeks. YES I felt the leeks were too important to only mention in the tags.)

rolled in ways that made implications in fate (magitech bike is silent which is... worse since we already know theyre being used essentially for warfare) and. bookworm is there now. just broke her out of jail. and the other guy we were trying to break out of jail wasnt in the main holding area. not playing it next week tho and i think we r maybe phasing it out soon

was going to have bug self destruct but it promised bookworm itd be safe... inno knows our two weaknesses. big hot men and children to take care of/protect/etc

I think I shared this on another platform already, but never here. I am drawing right now, and somehow something triggered me to recall this.

When I draw those slices-of-life stories of Chaldea, I MOSTLY only draw CasGil (Wise King). Sometimes KoGil, but I rarely draw ArcherGil (Tyrant).

And whenever you guys see me drawing ArcherGil, in most cases, he still wears a robe or tunic etc., which indicates that he is the version of Gilgamesh who is still ALIVE, living in Uruk with Enkidu—not the servant one.

The first reason is that, even though my friend info-dumped me about Fate throughout our high school years, my real introduction to Fate was the Babylonia anime. This means CasGil is the first Gilgamesh I actually knew and grew to like.

The second reason, as funny as it is, is simply because I never actually summoned ArcherGil in FGO😅 I guess the fate between us is thin, and he has never answered my call so far.

The third reason: After I started watching the Babylonia anime, the second thing I went after wasn’t UBW or FZ, but the Epic of Gilgamesh itself. (I only fully started shipping Enki x Gil after finishing the Epic. The final push caused my free fall into this abyss.) This experience shaped my view of Gilgamesh's character.

Because Tyrant Gilgamesh literally grows into the Wise King version, it's a progressive evolution—not entirely two separate people.

If I'm just drawing something funny, then okay, both of them can interact in the same scene and create something laughable. But if I try to dig into something more serious, then it feels...

awkward, at least for me.

In the end, I just choose one of them as the main character based on the background setting. Story set in Uruk? Archer, then. Story in Chaldea? Caster's part to play.

You may ask, what about KoGil? Why do I give him a free pass while excluding ArcherGil? Well, there is a split between KoGil and his two adult selves. I can still view all three Gils as parts of a continuous timeline, but the fact that KoGil hasn’t met Enkidu yet, and doesn’t always get along with his adult self, makes him not the central part of this topic. So he is free from this argument.

So most of the time, KoGil is just......well, KoGil, doing his own thing. He knows Enkidu, he enjoys staying beside Enkidu, but he isn’t as clingy toward Enkidu as the other two Gils.

Just as Alexander (kid version of Iskandar) said, he is fully aware of Iskandar's path and history, but none of it feels real to him. Because he (as Alexander) never really experienced those events, Iskandar's path probably feels just like some stories he’s read in books.

In my eyes, Caster Gilgamesh is the "real" one. I’m not saying ArcherGil or KoGil are fake. What I mean is, Caster is the one who actually went through all the different stages of life. He is the one who finished the journey of searching for immortality. He is the one who completed all the developments of Gilgamesh's character. He knows grief, he knows despair, and he overcame them. All these experiences feel real to him, and he knows them by heart, which build his character and personality as a person. He himself is the crystallization of the Epic of Gilgamesh.

But for ArcherGil or KoGil, despite knowing their fate and what will become of them, they still haven’t experienced it.

Yet I still see them as three pieces of one same puzzle, they all exist inside.
