Redraw of a classic

Magic Story Spoilers

Okay, are WotC actually going to lean into the bitter irony of the sheer number of de-compleations by having Duskmourn be the Strike Force reunion or what?

Assuming it's actually Jace, not the House or some third party pretending to be Jace?

The illusions say Jace, the fact that Jace has access to a living planar map sa- wait, fuck, scratch the Strike Force reunion thing... did Jace actually lure Nashi to Duskmourn [and probably steal Tamiyo in the first place, but that would be to get info about Loot]?

Like, either to use the Wanderer as a mass escape plan, having ventured to the plane as part of his plans to learn how to reshape the multiverse, or... stealing Himoto by using Nashi to lure Kaito in (I mean, the whole multiverse is being remade anyway, it's not clear anyone other than Vraska, Loot, and maybe Jace's mom is making the cut). Kaito probably kept his spark because his spark is a cute kami, and Jace would want to restore Vraska's spark.

(alternatively, his plan has been plagiarised from Bolas, this is his "release the Eldrazi to create a group of heroes")

Also, like... does Kaito know how good Jace is at illusions? Because I'm not sure how well-known that is, and the giant illusion would thus be a hint to the reader that no, really, this is Jace.

(I guess we'll get some hints in the DVD commentary...)

So the thing on Kaito's shoulder is a metallic origami tanuki robot which houses Himoto, the Kami of the Spark. It turned into a mask and caused Kaito to planeswalk away from Kamigawa. The question is, then, is Kaito a planeswalker with his own spark or because Himoto is with him?

[vorthosjay]

Hey jay! Not sure if you saw this, but could you explain how Kaito and the Wanderer got their sparks? Are they both natural planeswalkers or is it something to do with the kami or reality chip?

The story doesn't make that super clear, but the implication is that both Kyodai and the Himoto either grant or ignite sparks (old school lore speculation was that O-Kagachi was as sort of planeswalker himself, and Kyodai was his spark, but that's just speculation). Regardless of method, they're both planeswalkers now.

If anybody needs me, I gotta go draw some boy kissing ♡

Just felt like sketching the babies 🤍💙🖤

Eyyy!!!! Good to see him again! And so soon!

But also, I love how Himoto - a kami that represents the concept of the Emperor's Spark - still existing allows Kaito to planeswalk. Meanwhile, the Emperor's actual Spark went poof, so she's chilling on the couch and playing with her dog.

Good news, everyone!

MY BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY BOY RETURNS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fuckin.... remembered this art of Kaito and Pompon exists

From the bottom of my heart..... Oough

[bace-jeleren]

Please appreciate this art of sweet little Himoto doing a sneak in the Kamigawa manga

[bace-jeleren]

The one wholesome scene in this whole nightmare goes to Pompon snuggling against Kaito to try and help him feel better

[bace-jeleren]

Yet another Kaito redraw- the first being from March of this year and the second being done currently, in November. I feel I have grown much more comfortable with drawing Kaito in my style- his face is a lot less awkward now, especially.

[bace-jeleren]

Trying to get back into the habit of drawing something on a daily basis, so here's some casual blorbo doodles

It's me boy, I'm the PS5
