Transcript under the cut~

[Transcript]

[sounds of door opening + clinking of things]

I'm back.

Mm

Today's experiment

went much smoother than I expected,

so I came back early.

Just in time,

I also wanted to see you sooner.

Hmm?

What are you doing

Are these… gems?

[chuckles] I have only heard about it on the phone before

when you were filming a jewelry show

you bought a very beautiful emerald rough

[the fact that the emerald is still rough is important for the later part because it means that the edges are sharp and can cause pain-]

I just didn't expect…

there to be so many.

There's only one,

and the rest are candies?

[chuckles] So that's how it is

If I find the gem,

will it and you both belong to me?

It seems that

this is a "test" for me from my little lady.

Of course, I am willing to accept all your challenges.

However, before we begin,

I would like to understand the rules of this game.

For example,

how many chances do I have?

Or…

if I guess wrong,

what will the punishment be?

[the way he said it… man is looking forward to the punishment🤪]

Hmm?

You want to keep it a secret for now?

[chuckles]

Okay

Then…

[Lucien reaches out his hand to pick up one of the "gems", but is held back]

Am I not allowed to pick it up,

and can only observe it here?

[chuckles]

Fine

Then…

I'll choose this one.

Hmm?

Did I guess wrong?

Alright

Then can you tell me now 

what the punishment is?

Close my eyes?

[some rustling noises in the background as he is being stripped open-]

[LUCIEN'S HEAVENLY PANTING AS HE'S BEING PUNISHED-]

…although when you stripped open my clothes

I probably knew what the "punishment" would be,

the "gem" you just placed on my back

is even a little colder than I imagined.

This little lady looks a bit disappointed…

Hmm?

[chuckles]

Because I don't look surprised?

Maybe it's because,

when I guessed wrong, the mischievous look in your eyes was too obvious.

[T/N: he affectionately uses the title “little classmate” (小同学); I'm using ‘you’ for better flow~]

However

Compared to my back…

The waist areas around ribs,

and lower abdomen below navel,

are densely populated with nerve endings

and are much more sensitive.

[some DELICIOUS soft moans as he’s being punished in those places-]

[breathlessly] These areas

might better achieve the effect you desire.

[hell yea I sure wonder what kind of another ”””effect””” she's looking for-]

[chuckles]

Then…

I'll continue guessing

[chuckles]

This piece has a cooler color

The cracks in the crystal are also more natural

It seems to be the one

Did I guess wrong again?

I didn't expect this game

to be more "challenging" than I imagined.

[sigh]

It seems this little classmate is going to win another round.

Bring it on.

[chuckles] You can use a bit less force.

Otherwise,

the stimulation felt by the nerve endings

will be overshadowed by other sensations

[other sensations here might refer to pain caused by too much force… pain play doesn't work as well as temperature play on him due to him canonically having an absurdly high pain threshold and is less sensitive to pain]

Just like this…

[Lucien takes one of the “gems” and runs it on her body]

Hmm?

Did it feel cold to you?

I just think that

personally experiencing this feeling

will help you do it better.

[I think he doesn't mind the pain itself, BUT if you want to give him ‘better’ punishment, focus more on the temperature play🤪]

[chuckles] 

Sorry

the way you opened your eyes wide just now 

was really cute.

It made me want to be a bit more "excessive."

The one I have in my hand

should be the emerald you asked me to guess.

Of course, it can't be wrong

In the emerald ore,

there are some granules and textures

Moreover

emeralds are called beryls

and are mostly in the shape of hexagonal prisms.

When you were preparing the show,

I also secretly "stole" some knowledge from you.

Did I guess wrong on purpose before?

You caught me.

Within the rules,

experiencing everything the game has to offer is what makes it enjoyable, right?

[chuckles] Don't get distracted,

look,

the candy in your hand is already starting to melt.

Although this beautiful and translucent gem

is also very captivating.

To me,

the candy in your hand is more attractive.

[sounds of him rolling the candy to his mouth and licking the melting sugar on her hand]

Although it looks just like a gemstone on the surface,

it's sweeter than I imagined.

It has a bit of a green grape flavor.

Miss Producer,

haven't you tried it yourself?

Then…

[kissing noises as he ‘shares’ the candy sensually]

Let's share the fruit of this "victory" together.

[MORE delicious kissing noises before it fades away. With him being stripped off, I think we all know where this is going iykwim-]

[blood-orange-juice]

ok so ive never properly played genshin and don’t plan to but i know a bit about it’s lore and characters and i think it’s really neat. however i have thousands of hours on ffxiv. on that note please explain why graha and childe are similar. i only have very basic knowledge on childe and i gotta know

Fellow ffxiv enjoyer. <3

(anyone asking me about G'raha has a 100% chance of getting a wall of text and I'm not apologising for that. enjoy your wall of text)

I'm not entirely sure I'm not a case of a person with a hammer to whom everything resembles a nail, but I do think they are the same archetype.

Sweet characters who could have been perfect sidekicks (who still are perfect sidekicks) but listened to too many epic tales as kids and found themselves in a wrong place at a wrong time and now have to play a key role in some universe-changing story.

Both are defined mostly by their stubborness, they are not very suitable for the roles they've chosen and fail over and over again until they do it somewhat right (barely).

No matter how badass they look, their power is not their own, G'raha is a glorified technician of someone else's miracle and little else than a living key, Childe wields an art of old Khaenri'ah without fully understanding it. It's all borrowed from someone else who needed them to achieve a goal.

They do look badass, but mostly because they larp. I'm honestly not sure which one enjoys theatrics more.

Civilisations that created the magic they use specialised in perversion of the natural order of things. They try to use it in relatively noble ways and mostly hurt themselves but the flavour is there.

Both are unbelievably tragic and both somehow make their stories seem almost lighthearted. Complete absense of self-pity. I think that's what makes them both so charming, it's a rare trait.

Both have an incredible capacity for loyalty and love and an incredibly twisted view of what relationships look like. "I'll cross time and space for you, I'll die for you, I'll build a city for you, I'll live for you but please don't ask me to share my plans." "I'll sacrfice my own health and respect of my subordinates to keep my brother's happyness, probably my humanity too, but don't expect me to actually interact with him."

Both have something that looks like self-sacrificial tendencies bordering on suicidality while being, if we are honest, a self-serving trait (partially born out of low self-esteem but still self-serving). They want to live in an old myth and sacrificing oneself is a perfectly reasonable price for that.

Huge egos. And I mean Huge Egos. It's a bit less obvious in Graha's case but I know the type, you see guys like that in PhD programs a lot.

Huge dorks. Both of them.

Both are stuck somewhere between human and non-human and, hmm... their ability to remain human is the most astonishing quality of both. By all accounts, neither should have. They somehow did.

Both are incapable of lying to the point where a third of each fandom headcanons them as autistic. Both are somewhat all right with tricking people without technically lying (although Childe had more practice).

Both are secretive because no one would understand anyway.

FF XIV is a kinder story, so it's easy to overlook, but technically G'raha is a case of body horror, accepts the role of a villain for a while and hides from the player way too much. Hmmm... Where else have I seen it. Hmm. Oh right. That ginger guy from Genshin.

Minor things:

Both are little shits and enjoy annoying the hell out of people they dislike.

Abysmally bad fashion sense. There should be a name for this particular type and level of bad. I don't think I've seen this anywhere else.

And then there's the colour scheme. Red+black+white+blue and red+black+light grey+blue (it's an "anime magician" color profile, I think. black-red-white as alchemy colours + blue as pure magic/something elemental). Childe doesn't quite fit but still the combination is rare.

They way they talk. Dear gods. Who the hell talks like that.

Here's where the similarities end.

One is morally grey but ultimately a good guy (technically. I think the point of ShB was that Emet and G'raha are almost the same), another is a morally grey but still (kind of) a bad buy.

At every step of his story Graha is surrounded by people who love or at least appreciate him, Childe is pretty much on his own and surrounded by people who are either shitty or clueless.

G'raha is kind. Truly and astonishingly kind, in a doomed world he chooses to love everything he touches. Silly little priest of hope. Of all the things he has done this is the most wondrous, I think. Not the time travel, not the city he founded, just being able to remain kind after everything that happened to him.

Childe is... well, Childe. I think he is a deeply decent person (to the point of having a visceral distaste for any kind of unfairness) and he's idealistic but he's indifferent more than he is kind. Empathy usually develops only when someone has shown the person empathy first and, as far as we know, he didn't have much of that in his life.

Also G'raha builds things. Childe breaks things. Childe breaks pretty much everything he touches.

One is an archeologist and a mage and another is a warrior.

I think these differences are caused mostly by the settings they were put into. Childe raised in Sharlayan would have been a very different person. G'raha trained by a voidsent and shipped off to Garlean military would look very much like Childe.

G'raha also has a beautiful character development arc. I love his ShB role. He has this huge ego in the raids and is insufferable and then we see an older and wiser him with a bunch of actual achievements and a bad case of impostor syndrome (trying to do anything real always humbles a person, we all know that real world is held together by sticks and scotch tape. honestly, this change alone is beautiful). And he gets to be an actual hero when he abandons all hope to be Important and resigns to die as a nameless villain if it saves everyone and spares his loved ones from heartbreak.

Childe's character development is yet to happen and I'm not hoping for much but we'll see.

The only difference that definitely isn't created by setting is that G'raha is naturally manipulative. In a kind-hearted way and mostly for the sake of better larp but he isn't that straightforward. Childe is spectacularly blunt for all his mysteriousness.

As a bonus, they both compare main characters to stars, but in completely different ways.

"No doubt your heroism will be the star by which I chart my course," says G'raha to the WoL.

Childe mentions the morning star, which is, of course, pretty and a good companion to a lonely traveler, but also it's not a celestial body you can chart your course by.

It's a guy whose signature weapon is called "Polar Star" and his first artifact set was full of nautical themes, so I think he fully understands what he's saying. "You are my friend but I won't change anything in my life for you."

So I don't think his story will be anything like G'raha's, his life took a different turn very long ago. I do think they used to be similar as kids, bookish boys who dreamed of adventure and being special. So it's fun to compare.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk. <3

[yuseirra]

Hi there, lovely artist! Do you watch the oshi no ko anime? I ask because I wondered if you are excited to see their depiction of Hikaru, because you make such lovely art of him (it's a depiction I quite like :)). It made me wonder if you have some kind of expectations for the anime.

I'm personally very excited to see Hikaru animated and voice acted :D

Hello anon~ thanks for calling me lovely!♥ I love getting complimented!

Oh! I watched the first 2 eps of the second season, then I decided to put off watching it for a while (I can always buy it in our local OTT platform, they have it there!) because the manga... ;v; is already making my head spin so much already. I can only focus on one thing at a time... It was SO good though!!// I remember how the first episode started with stage-play, which was very impressive. The opening animation sequence is amazing too! I'd like to binge it all at once later.

Hmm...about expectations, I personally consider the current arc to be great in terms of depicting Aqua's psychology. It was peak in terms of helping us understand his character, so I appreciate that a lot. We get to see all his pains and trauma and the struggles he had, and it was so powerful. I'm sure the anime would be touching on those currently, if they do a great job with that (along with Akane's rivalry with Kana and how they shine on stage in different ways) I feel I'd be happy with it! Also that scene with Melt. I'm sure that one's been animated because I saw a thumbnail of it on youtube. I'm also looking forward to the aqukana date. That's one of the few peaceful, cute moments we have. I'm sure I'd watch that part the moment it comes out because I'm curious how that's going to be acted out.. and I need to see some happy moments in onk for once. Stuff's been depressing in the manga lately and I feel sorry for a lot of characters;;

OH... thank you!// I'm so happy to hear you like my depiction of him!!/// That gives me strength. Yeah, I'm excited too, because we never saw his color palettes yet, haven't we!! It's going to be all over the internet once it's out, won't it...I'm a little worried if I got it way off.. but I'm prepared to take what they give us! The anime team does the series justice. I trust they will come up with something good. I just mentioned I'd watch the aqukana dating scene as it comes out.. well, that scene with hikaru's also a scene I want to watch (and I NEED to in order to get his color schemes right in the future 'cause I draw! o<-<)

I really want him to get a bright color palette, because his name has to do with both "god" and "light"... or the god of light if combined.. I SERIOUSLY believe he HAS to do with amenouzume, the entertainment god's husband!! That god conveniently is said to have a "shining body" and is called the god of the bright lights!!!! There is no way that has nothing do do with him!! I don't really picture him with dark eyes, I feel golden eyes would really suit him because that gives off the "light" imagery and it'd make sense. It'd also be able to make his black star eyes really stand out as he has them.. and I feel he'd make a good contrast with Ai if he's colored a bit brighter than Aqua or Ruby. purple and yellow contrast each other very well! So I'm crossing my fingers for that to happen. Same here, I'm really curious how he'd sound like, and I'm happily awaiting to see his depiction in the anime. Since I drew a lot of things about him already, I'd be a bit embarrassed if happened to get his colors off... but?? It's the colors I really want. So I won't regret having colored him that way. We can all dream, right!

I drew them upon having received your ask!

it'd be really nice if he has these bright colors that contrasts Ai's dark purple. Saying this again because I really want that to happen ;v;)9999

I get chatty, I hope you can feel my excitement! :) This series makes me both so nervous and excited... I guess it will be like that for awhile.

Let's keep having fun together! I appreciate your ask and I hope you have a fun weekend!

[rayman-chibi]

So I took a Uquiz about what oddly specific color palette I would be after being tagged by a lovely lady :P

And then I realized something:

"Hmm, these do look like colors I would use, so pastel-like and fluffy... wait, do these remind me of a certain art challenge?"

And then it hit me.

I'm gonna be using the colors I got:

And then use them to create an alternate version of this color wheel art challenge that pretty much half of the art community was doing:

Here is the result for the base I'll be using:

(+ one without the color dot things)

And here's what I got so far:

(And ofc I put Kid in there even though nobody's gonna ask for him, HE'S MY FREAKIN SON PEOPLE >:D)

What I need now is, of course, your requests!

Let's start with the red-orange color. What character do you think fits that color? Let me know in the replies and the reblogs. It can be a Rayman character, it can be a non-Rayman character, it doesn't even need to be a character from a video game at all! Just give me a character that you think has red-orange in their color scheme and the one that interests me the most will be appearing on that slice.

See y'all soon!

Escalated Chaos 

Egashira and Mukai are at a place where their comfortable banter has caught the eyes of everyone around them. They are too dumb to realize their old married couple dynamic despite coming to terms with being very attracted to each other. What happens when a bet scheme involving the two devolves into pure chaos?  Context: Mitsumi being Mitsumi agreed to put on a play at her hometown summer festival. The problem is not enough members are available to do so. Kanechika is in film school but quickly agrees for the old gang's sake. Mika was asked for help with a Japanese Canadian character during screenwriting and was eventually roped in for the role. As for Mukai, it was just convenient. Kidding, no seriously when everyone’s involved we are not gonna leave out our best boi- shh let me have this. Let’s just imagine the story is a bit further along in their 3rd year and Shimamistu is a thing. Not like it’s relevant just minor side details.  Sorry, if they seem too ooc the story just kind of got away from me. Also, not proofread sorry in advance.

Mika feels a whoosh in her heart, is that even possible what the heck, she fans herself. Damn, that tall spacey idiot for being so..so.. gorg- stupid. Yes, you heard her right she totally- er did not call a certain someone named Mukai gorgeous. Pull yourself together Mika you idiot. Yet, despite herself, she is pulled into a haze where a low-timbered voice whispers sweet nothings in her ear and strong arms pull her close by the waist. She could just about dissolve why did he have to be so damn hot- irritating. 

“ Egashira… hello earth to Egashira??” Mukai bends down to her level speaking in that casual tone snapping her out of the reverie. She is gonna find the costume designer and makeup artists to make them pay hell for the state she is in. Why is he pulling off the Yukata so well?

"What are you doing daydreaming in the middle of the debrief?” Mika gives him the stink eye for calling her out like that. “Shut up, it’s your fault” Looking utterly confused he starts “How is it-“ 

"Alright love birds let's settle down” Kanechika hollers from the podium. They both are quick to turn around blushing wildly at the older boy’s assumption. “That got their attention” Shima whispers as Kanechika gives him a thumbs up grinning. 

“Alright everyone before we get to it- I wanted to thank you all for making this possible and agreeing to lend a hand. Special thanks to Egashira-chan and Mukai-kun for taking on the extra roles. And Mitsumi-chan..” Argh, leave it to him to make this out to be a big deal and draw attention to us Mukai groans internally. Wait a second what was that weird comment about us before do we look like a couple with our costumes? His lips turned up as he bashfully straightened out his suit front thinking how they probably looked to others. 

“What the hell are you grinning about like a fool?” An elbow nudges him as Egashira looks at him and back to the podium. “Hmm, uh nothing?” she hums noncommittally squinting at him as if she could see right through his bullshit. 

“Oh hey” he looks at her through his peripheral vision frowning a little “Yeah?” she answers looking away definitely not wanting to be caught by everyone again. “You look great!” he whispers. Now Mukai can’t help but blurt that out he has been holding it in since she came out with those blonde streaked braid and hazel-colored contacts. The leather jacket with Kohl in her eyes was so badass. Why is his heart beating so loud his ears are almost ringing- he chances a look at her. 

She is hunched down covering her face- is she perhaps laughing at him? 

What he doesn’t know is that she is in fact smiling so hard it looks like she is laughing. To hell with that pine-tree-sized moron is he doing this on purpose Mika curses in her mind but manages to whisper back “So, I don’t always look great?” That makes him flounder “No… Uh..I mean that’s not..you’re pulling off the costume better than I thought” Shit, he is digging a deeper grave is he still that bad when it comes to talking to girls. This actually makes Mika want to laugh but she pushes ahead trying to sound upset “What are you trying to say?” 

“No..sorry wait..” He frowns deeper pausing and something dawns on him as she shakes beside him “Wait are you pulling my legs?” He nudges her as if asking her to stop. “mean!” That nudge was the last straw and Mika loses it at the absurdity of it all. Oh hell no now she’s done it everyone’s eyes are back on the duo. For once in his life Kanechika looks like he is seriously contemplating something. 

They both want to dissolve into the ground from embarrassment. “This won’t do seems like we need to separate the couple until the play is done.” He nods as if he has come up with a great plan. They both give each other an alarmed look as everyone else seems to understand what he meant perfectly. “Guys, what is going on?” Egashira questions doubtfully. It almost looks like everyone has an evil look- did something happen when they weren’t there? Did they all get possessed?

“Debrief over do your best everyone and remember important task today to keep them away from each other until the end. That’s it chop chop!” 

Did Sousuke just let out a giggle that asshole. 

And then they both were kept off of each other’s sight for the whole ordeal not even a peep. The strange thing is everything was back to normal as if nothing happened at all. Except Mika could swear she saw Shima and Mitsumi arguing a couple of times and Kanechika pitching in. Maybe she should text Mukai and ask what’s up cause this is too peculiar to let go. Then she hung her head in shame remembering their shenanigans honestly being with that idiot always brought a side of her that she never thought was possible. Plus since when did they both get so close that it was becoming unbearable to be apart? What stings her the most is the fact Kanechika of all people deemed them problem children it’s not like that guy can talk he’s a walking disaster of energy. And well, curiosity is killing her. 

Mukai at first was too flustered to think about the bizarreness of Sousuke’s smugness and every else’s strange behavior. As more time went on and they were serious about keeping them apart he started getting anxious. It’s not like they are always attached at the hip so why does this feel so different? Is it because she looked really good? He wants to see her in the costume again- just the thought of it sets his heart racing mile a minute. Woah, hold on Tsukasa calm down. The tail end of a distant conversation breaks him from the daze “Who do you think is going to win the bet?” Mitsumi’s hometown friend Tatchan's voice echoes. “Duh, it’s obvious something is going on between them but they don’t strike me as the bold types you know- so I vote for Shima” someone answers.

Wait what’s going on? “Hmm, I see what you mean but I vote for Kanechika, I can’t wait to see how this all pans out..hehe.” The rest of the conversation is droned out as Mukai gets his gears moving whatever this is it’s definitely about them both. That jerk Sousuke so that’s how it is huh, bring it on. 

Mika connects the dots as she receives info from him- so these morons are playing Cupid with us. Alright, dummies you don’t play with fire if you’re not ready to be burned. Here we come. 

They managed to put on a fantastic play. NOW that they are all back in the vicinity of each other backstage they could feel expecting eyes watching their every move. Just as planned they both don’t interact with each other at all. Mika chats with Mitsumi about the performance reviews and Mukai at Sousuke’s side as the girls swarm him. 

One by one everyone takes their leave to go explore the festival. Suddenly it’s just the two of them in the backroom all alone. They both sigh exaggeratedly coming closer to each other. “Oh my god, that was exhausting! I missed you.” Mika grabs his hands and looks up at him expectantly. Mukai’s breath catches “You did?” He unconsciously squeezes back at their joined hands making Mika shiver. That was oddly comforting but what was he doing she wonders. Pouting at that she asks, “What so you didn’t miss me at all?” He chuckles impulsively dragging her close and locking his hands behind her back “No, I really missed you annoying me.” 

What the hell was that? But the shock of his action is abruptly cut short by his sarcastic quip. “You..asshole,” she says lacking conviction or bite.

Two can play the game. Mika slowly drags her hands over his chest and gently cups his face. That elicits an audible gasp not only from the man himself but some hidden ones as well. Mika smirks as she just hit two mangoes with a single stone. 

Mukai’s breath was stolen a tightness enveloping him as a whole. Lightheadedness threatened his steady stance. Amazed by the sparks. Is this happening for real? Was the only coherent thought he could process. 

Lucky for him, Mika called out the morons that started the whole squib cutting short his frayed neurons' attempt to bask in the warmth. 

After receiving an ear full from her and Mukai’s disapproving gaze the group apologized for scheming behind their backs. Kanechika and Mitsumi at least had the decency to look sheepish. Sousuke seemed deep in thought fleeting his eyes from Egashira and him. 

“Wait does this mean you guys are dating?” A bold Tatchan questioned. Suddenly everyone's eyes are sparkling as if they were waiting for something. 

Mika shot daggers at the poor soul and he apologized immediately. “I don’t see how that’s any of y’all concern.” 

“No like how can you bet on us?” At that everyone looked at each other as if they knew something these two don’t. 

“Sorry, it’s just that the two of you were always in your bubble getting flirty with each other. It was kind of hard to focus on our work at times” Fumi answers. At that they both flush brightly- what in the world that’s not true is it. Those were just friendly banter or so they thought. 

The truth was their banters often devolved into flirting territory but neither of the goofballs knew they started doing it. 

Kanechika giggles and supplies unhelpfully that solving the mystery of their relationship almost became the prime focus of the group for a while. Which is why Shima came up with the bet in the first place. Mukai glares at him as hard as he can but that idiot just gives him a smug look in return. When did he start to get so involved with things going on around him? 

“Mitsumi, I didn’t expect this of you” Egashira pouts angrily at her friend. Flailing at the sudden shift in focus she apologizes for not taming Sousuke and Kanechika when they masterminded the plan. 

“Wait so who won the bet?” Someone asks and all hell breaks loose. 

Argh, I’ll deal with those airheads later Mika thinks grabbing her stuff checking if anyone noticed her, and dragging Mukai the hell out of there. 

Now in the crowd of the festival leaning against the wall for support, they both pant hard. Mukai questions breathily “Why…Why didwerun?” Mika raises a hand asking him to wait. 

“You think they’ll let us be without knowing who won?” She takes a deep breath and tries to compose herself. “Oh yeah that” 

Damn it Mukai can’t help the awkwardness seeping out of him. It’s not like we were getting close to each other with a romantic intention in the first place. It was because we could talk to each other freely that I started liking her. How am I going to explain what I did back there? Crap, what if we stop talking to each other because my crush makes it weird. 

“Hey..hey Mukai!” Sharp pain in his shoulder brings him back. “Ow, did you just punch me?” 

Mika shrugged at him smiling mischievously he wasn’t responding what was she supposed to do? “Well, let’s get going before they catch us.” 

Mika convinces him to go to the beach near Mitsumi’s house citing they won’t be caught there. She wonders if this will be their chance to talk about what happened. She has a pretty good idea of his feelings and it would be a lie if she said that didn’t make her happy. As Mika once put it for someone to see her wretchedness in plain sight and still like her was something of a hopeful delusion. Yet, the past years proved it to be not the case. She was changing in her friend's presence, or rather they have changed her perception of herself and everything radically. That ghastly narrative of what a supposedly bland person she is was shattered to pieces by Mistumi’s beaming support, Yuzuki’s playful jabs, and Makoto’s quiet approval. They have all brought light into her world filled with self-depreciation and made her feel worthy of their love. And Mukai. 

How could she not fall for him when he’s always been there calling out her flaws but also soothing her pain showing her she deserves to be liked for who she is. Everything seemed natural when they were together be it the sloppy awkwardness of their ribbing, or the bubbling irritation of being unable to hide their feelings in front of one another. 

Currently, they were walking down the shoreline letting their feet get drenched by the swaying waves. “Oh, I’d been wanting to tell you that Yukata looks great on you!” Mukai nods in acknowledgment.  

What is it with the sea and the sound of crashing waves it’s like they create a tranquil atmosphere. The earlier awkwardness faded away as comfortable silence replaced it. 

She understands although Mukai generally has a good read on everything- he has his own insecurities to fight against. Which is why-

 “Mukai..” He looks at her side profile the sunset in the background creating a hallow around her. She seems nervous cutely biting her lips “Can I use your first name?” 

It's like the world stops spinning momentarily, and Mukai’s mind camera captures the peachy blush illuminating her cheeks as she looks up at him in anticipation. Realization of the unspoken meaning and the gravity of what she is baring lay in front of him strikes at once. He looks at her stunned with a foolish grin- “Wha….” 

She ducks her head down- blushing hard “I… want to use your first name is that okay?” Not trusting his voice he nods vigorously. To onlookers, he must look crazy with that cheek-hurting grin on his face as the wind carries her voice to him softly.

“Tsukasa?” …looking a bit confused she tries again “Tsukasa..Tsukasa” Huffing a laugh she questions why it sounds so familiar on her tongue. 

That’s it he decides that is it. All previous worries melted away. 

Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought someone who pursued Sousuke would be the type of person he'd fall for. How hilarious that arguments and misunderstandings leading to a broken Valentine's confession brought us closer. He muses forever grateful for saying something that day if not he would’ve never met the endearing girl behind the gossipy facade. It’s almost fresh how observant and considerate she is of others like trying to bring him out of his shell but hiding it underneath friendly insults. Most of all he loves how brave she is for getting vulnerable and trusting him despite past rejections. 

He owes it to himself and her to be honest. 

She doesn’t notice him slowing down but jolts when a hand suddenly snakes around her wrists, sliding to slot their fingers together. 

Mukai meekly looks at her and turns away holding his neck- “So.. that means I get to call you Mika then?” 

She laughs cheerily "Would be stupid if you didn’t!” 

“Yeah!” He looks away again taking in the pink skies and the gentle evening breeze he couldn’t ask for a more romantic setting than this. 

“Mika, I really like you.” His gaze and smile softened at the varying emotions reflected on her face at the confession. 

Finally settling with something in-between relief and cheekiness- “Wah, took you long enough to say that out loud!” She playfully bumps his shoulder as they resume walking. 

“I like you too. Should we date?” She tilts her head coyly waiting for his reply. 

Ahh there she goes again, how is she.. “Nah, I’m good” he sassily moves to separate their hands. And a second later gets smacked with her bag. “Jerk..moron! Not funny” Scowling she continues to assault him. 

Cackling he pulled her into a hug as she continued to wiggle not amused with the joke. “Would love to I was obviously kidding” he rests his face on top of her head swaying them side-to-side. 

Mika buries into his chest twinkling. “You better be!” 

Bonus: Back at the festival Mitsumi was laying into Kanechika and Sousuke- while the latter had a nagging feeling his plan succeeded.  Here is the art that inspired the last part. This is just the first step they both obviously have a lot of insecurities to deal with Mika even more so. We still don’t know why Mukai is scared of girls or if that’s just a throw-away gag. I tried to make it as fluffy as possible and my hc is these two are really comfortable with skinship as they grow closer even as friends. That’s the kind of people I see them as. Also, about the first/last name changes with focus shifts, sorry if it confused anyone. I wanted to try something new.  Thanks for reading. Let me know what you all think!

[yours-the-author]

Hey, so...

Does anyone remember this post I made recently?

.

.

.

I made some art for it...

If you wanna see it...

Here it is:

I'M SO MAD AT MYSELF IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SURVIVING THE MANSION BUT I DIDN'T REALIZE UNTIL AFTER I FINISHED IT AAAGGH

...Aside from that little oopsie, though, I'm actually really proud of how the logo came out? I based the font off a style called "Micro 5 Charted". Thank goodness I was using graph paper!

I'm not sure if that Kanji is correct; Google Translate doesn't seem to like the word "oni" or "stick", especially together, so I spelled out the Romanji in the English box and then tried to copy the characters Google offered me as closely as possible. I think I'd be more surprised if I got the Kanji correct, honestly.

Henry Stickmin title screens usually have two different fonts for the verb and the noun, and I thought about trying to make "Mansion" look like an actual house, but that made my brain hurt to much to conceptualize, so I stuck with different colored fonts. Hmm, that clock sure is there. I wonder what it means gets hit by a bus

-----

Anyway, here's some theoretical scenarios of what the main gameplay would look like! This one stars General Hubert Galeforce and some other guy:

Option 1: Shoot

Result: The monster hears you move as soon as you pull your gun from its holster. No time to defend yourself.

FAILURE (DiE!)

Option 2: Backup

Result: Your radio refuses to work, even though it was just fine before you entered the mansion. The monster waits until you've realized this, then goes for your throat.

FAILURE (No one will hear your screams...)

Option 3: Time Out

Result: The monster does not hear you and goes into a separate room, out of sight and out of mind. Galeforce survives... for now. But what was that thing...?

-----

I don't know how feasible it would be, but I imagine this would be a cross between typical RPG Maker-styled games (pixels, speech boxes with pictures of the characters, moving around a set floor plan, puzzle solving, etc) and typical Henry Stickmin-styled game play (cutscenes, choices, possible interactivity [grabbing items/bios], the occasional quick time event, etc) (voice acting would be a stretch). Most of the gameplay, like exploring the mansion, puzzle solving, and running/fighting the monster, would be RPG style, and then occasionally switch into a cutscene that requires you to make a choice; usually with just one correct answer but possibly others that could result in diverging dialogue/interaction/paths/endings? Something to think about.

Anyway, Galeforce! Poor man has no idea what he almost walked into, haha. I experimented with perspective and limb placement here, which was exhausting but also a lot of fun! Dynamics are hard with stick figures, but considering that they're they only character medium I've ever been decent at, I made it work.

And the Oni... I tried to give it some sort of anatomy, but quickly realized that I do not have the skills to pay those bills. I opted for a more of a shadowy figure looking thing with a big smile instead (you can see some of the lines where I tried to make it have arms, I think). I opted for Ao Oni's purple-y blue color scheme verses HetaOni's gray alien look. Back in the day of fan made Ao Oni games, people would usually try to put their own unique spin on the Oni sprite, with HetaOni's being the most unique I ever saw (keep in mind, it was one of the few designs I ever saw, so there might be cooler ones out there, who knows). In theory, a game called Sutikku Oni would use a stick figure shaped monster, but with my current art skills, that would just look like a normal stick person with a big head (look! Geoffrey Plumb's cousin!). I think the less we see, the better; all good horror games know when to leave things to the imagination!

-----

I also made a second one, featuring my boy Dave Panpa!

...Dave, I'm so sorry... *MAKES HIM PEEP THE HORROR*

Option 1: Call for Help

Result: You call for help...

FAILURE (...but nobody came.)

Option 2: Run

Result: You tense your muscles in preparation to run. The monster is faster.

FAILURE (YoU... wOn'T... eScApE...!)

Option 3: Pretend to be a Piano

Result: Frozen with fear in front of the piano, it's all you can do to hope the monster thinks you're also a piano (a sopping wet piano, but still). It's deadly quiet. You can hardly breathe, and you're afraid to. The monster stares at you for an uncomfortably long time, before walking away, out of sight and out of mind. You stay still a little longer before collapsing to the ground. Dave Panpa survives... for now. How on Earth did that work? Or... did that thing let you live out of pity...?

-----

UGH the piano! Pianos are so hard to draw! Luckily, I had an almost head on reference that I was able to use for the first picture. For the above view shot, I had to do some wild guessing. The red stuff near Dave's head in the second picture is the red stuff he was referring to. Is it blood? Paint? Something else? Who knows! But as we all know, any self respecting Ao Oni fan game needs a piano puzzle!

I imagine Dave was dragged along for the ride when the Toppats decided to find the treasure of the mansion (or something to that degree), fully intending to leave him there to die if there was, in fact, a monster inside. Poor Dave... Maybe there could be an ending where amends are made? Or maybe not...

I mostly put the smile on the monster's shadow as a means of showing that, indeed, it is the monster, but now I'm wondering if the monster's mouth glows or something? Hot fires of Hell, delivered right to you! Can you beat the heat?

-----

Thank you all for coming to my fixation ramble that absolutely no one else except me finds interesting! Any thoughts before you go?

(A cricket chirps, then leaves because it's in the wrong conference room)

...Yeah, I figured.

[vic0100]

Well, Cassette so Cassette, I didn’t expect that you would like it to be honest, but now I have pride from its creation!

talk about its creation and then move on to other information about him.

Initially, I had another character: Cassette (CS-089), which was created last August. If it’s interesting, I’ll write about him later--

And already on September 9, CS-0101 was created.The motivation for this was the fact that I attended a concert for the first time, because before that I had also paid a share of interest to the classics and opera.

Let's talk about design

At first his design was modest, with not very detailed clothes like now--

But I found a middle ground.

After the design was created, I started thinking about color, which turned out to be a more difficult task. I settled on the most striking examples of the combination of red and blue. But the rest of the accessories are silver.

Let's talk about Cassette capabilities and why it has such an appearance

The design of the very first Cassette did not have arms up to the elbows, although the palms remained. The palms were black as oil, and they also had black smoke.

CS-0101 inherited the same. Although his hands remained, and an extra pair of hands were simply added to him.

But how do hands levitate?

The explanation is simpler than it seems . The magnets are located in the body of the Cassette so that the magnets in the hands are in contact, but do not touch each other, but are at a created distance that will help them have such an effect. Because of this, these hands cannot hold heavy things, and are rather created to defend themselves with claws.

According to the same scheme, he has a levitating head.

The cassette also has an electric guitar, which has pointed ends in its central part, as well as an additional function that is barely noticeable at first, with the desired combination, a circular saw blade, which is used in battles, will appear from the compartment located in the guitar.

The guitar itself has the ability to play at frequencies that can rupture eardrums or cause capillaries to burst.

Spikes on clothing also serve as protection, even on shoes.

I can add that with his brothers CS-089 and CS-0111, experiment CS-0101 communicate much more often than with the alliance. Because he is quite modest, and goes through the same socialization with other agents as he did before 089.

Hmm.. That's all that can I tell you about him now!

"And this..." Diavolo said, grabbing the doorhandle and then swinging the door ahead of you two open, "Is your bedroom."

Once inside, you gasped. It was beautiful. Every furnishing and item was that of high luxury, between the satin sheets on the bed to the furniture engraved with gold ornate markings. The color scheme of the room was... somehow perfect to you.

"What do you think?" Diavolo asked quietly, watching your reaction as you walked around the room.

"It's perfect," you stated. "I... like it very much." Immediately, the desk in the corner under a window got your attention, and you walked over to it to see several books and a notepad out. You read the notes, realizing it was your own writing. They consisted of things of finances, law, etiquette, and what seemed to be historical facts.

"What was I studying?" You asked, inferring from the things you found on the desk.

"Well, you are a student at RAD, as you were told, but you were also learning how to be a royal to..." he trailed off for a moment. "To become queen."

Your head snapped up, looking at Diavolo. "Oh," is all you could say. You realized that indeed, if you were betrothed to the prince, it would make sense to be a royal as well. Putting everything back, you looked around again, and then finally sat at the foot of your bed.

"What are you thinking about?" Diavolo asked, joining you and sitting directly next to you.

"It's just a lot to take in. It's rather... fantastical to think I would be a demon for one, and then the idea of becoming a queen for two. It's like a fairytale," you said, looking at the floor.

"I see," you heard Diavolo say, sounding disappointed.

You drug your gaze up to him again, and he looked back at you.

"I'm sorry that I'm not who you want me to be," you said abruptly.

Diavolo looked at you in confusion.

"I can tell, this entire time, you've been watching me, waiting for me to remember everything, or just something, and it just seems like you're constantly disappointed by me," you explained.

"I apologize. You are right, I've been in my head about the entire situation. But that doesn't give me the right to take it out on you, so please, I ask that you forgive me," he said sincerely, taking your hands into his. "I promise we will fix this, we're just not sure how yet."

"What if... what if I never get my memory back?" You asked quietly.

Diavolo paused for a moment, having not let himself have the moment to even consider the possibility.

Diplomatic as ever, he replied, "We'll work it out when we reach that point. For now, we're doing our best to make you comfortable and try to give you some normalcy."

You had an idea, "Can... I ask you some questions? To get to know you better?"

Diavolo smiled and nodded. You scooted yourself back, settling onto the bed, and he followed your lead, lying next to you, shoulder-to-shoulder.

"Go on," he encouraged.

"You said I was the best friend you never had, what did you mean by that?"

"Ah... You see, I lived a rather lonely and isolated childhood. I didn't have siblings like Lucifer and his brothers. My mother died after I was born, and my father was rather strict during my youth and became more and more absent as I grew up. I didn't have any friends until Barbatos came along," Diavolo replied.

"That's... so sad," you said immediately.

"But when I have you, it's the most fulfilling thing to me. Just to be in your presence makes me feel surrounded in love," he said rather sweetly, turning his head to look at you. You couldn't help but smile and nod.

"Alright. What made you like me? Or why are you attracted to me?" You asked.

"Hmm, there's so many things, it might be a while," Diavolo teased. "What made me like you was how even in the faces of torment and turmoil, you always put on a brave face, even if it was painful. I respect you a lot for that. You're also incredibly kind and charming to everyone you meet, and you don't even have to try. I also love how playful you are with me," he stated. "As for being attracted to you, the moment you were summoned to the Devildom, I was smitten by you, but I didn't want to complicate things or make you feel like you had to say yes to me just because of my position. I never wanted to disrespect your boundaries."

He then rolled to his side and looked down at you as he propped himself up on one elbow. "I always thought you were incredibly sexy. It's hard for me to keep my eyes off of you. I'm fairly certain everyone but you could see how much I burned for you when you were nearby," he murmured.

Your breath hitched, and suddenly you were drowning in desire.

"I-I'll admit, when I saw you last night, I was... rather happy to hear you're my fiancé. I thought you were very handsome..." you stated.

Diavolo gave you a coy smile and raised one brow. "Is that right? That's good to hear," he purred.

"Forgive me if this is forward... but... what all have we, um, done?"

"How do you mean?" he asked curiously.

"Oh, well– I mean– I just– Oh hell, this is stupid," you muttered. In a quick motion, you rolled onto your side and planted your lips on his, swinging a leg over his hip.

Instantly, he grabbed your leg and pulled you closer, and his arm wriggled under you to pull the rest of your body to his. All of a sudden, you felt very warm, and you realized he was also warm. Your hands curled into his lapel, fighting the urge to go wild. At the same time, your tongue, as well as his, lashed out at one another, deepening the kiss.

I told myself I wasn't going to do this, Diavolo thought to himself.

After several minutes of trying to swallow each other, he pulled away first. "Oh, I see. Yes, we've done that, many times," Diavolo replied, smirking at you.

"Would you mind showing me what it was like?" You murmured, staring at the button of his jacket that you fiddled with as you fought to get your breathing under control. His hand went up to your chin to lift it, so you'd look at him.

But if that's what she wants...

"Is that what you want?"

With a look that only resembled desire and desperation, you nodded.

Then fuck it.

*He pulled you into his embrace and kissed you again. Gently, he pushed you onto your back and straddled your hips, unbuttoning and unbuckling his coat, tossing it aside.

The prince had your pure and undivided attention. He moved with grace, and you couldn't help but feel small beneath him. He stared you down as he loosened his tie, and your eyes shot to his large hands with long, slender fingers. When he unbuttoned his shirt, you watched with equal fascination, and the more he revealed, the more you salivated over him.

"That hasn't changed. You're looking at me as if you'd devour me," he commented on your trance-like state.

"I might," you whispered. He chuckled and continued until he completely bared his upper body to you. Sitting back up on one elbow, you reached up and let your hand run over his chest and abs. Your gaze flickered upward to his eyes, and he watched you with equal curiosity. Timidly, your hand rested on his slacks, pausing for a silent question.

"Go on," he encouraged you.

You unbuttoned and unzipped his slacks, and then let your fingers trace over the outline of his hardened member over the fabric, causing him to hiss quietly.

He leaned over and placed a hungry kiss on your lips, his hand roaming your body over your own clothes. Rolling off of you, he positioned himself next to you so you could sit up, and he helped you out of your blouse and bra, tossing them aside. Laying back down, he worked the rest of your clothes off, sending his slacks and underwear along with them into the same heap on the floor.

Once you two were completely naked, you ogled at his body above you. He was so large, muscular, and broad. It took several seconds for your brain to start registering the real world again, and immediately, without hesitation, your eyes flicked downward to find his heavy and hard cock twitching near your thigh. Just like the rest of the demon above you, it was large, but you couldn't help but be even more aroused.

Blinking a few times and collecting yourself, you looked up. "Sorry for staring," you said quietly. "I just... how'd I get so lucky?"

"It's endearing," Diavolo replied warmly. "Though, I'd argue I'm the luckiest being in all three realms to have you as my own." He lowered himself down onto you, and instinctively, you brought your thighs up around his hips. He planted a soft kiss on your lips while you carded your hands through his rusty locks to keep him close.

"You wanted to know what it was like," he started to say in a low voice, "But I must tell you, it was rarely ever the same."

He began kissing your neck as he grabbed a hold of your waist. Continuing, he murmured against your flesh, "Sometimes it was sweet, full of whispers of love and promises of eternity." His teeth then sunk into your skin, not enough to pierce the flesh, but enough to cause you to jump and gasp. "Other times, we got a little rough. I loved hearing you call me daddy, begging for me to please you."

Pulling away, Diavolo looked down at you again. "But no matter what, making love to you is something I consider to be sacred, and I take a lot of pride in it," he said to you in a low whisper.

Your voice got caught in your throat, and your eyes went wide. The echo of a foreign thought bounced in your mind, one that didn't feel like your own, but you realized it was a far-away memory.

You know I can never tell you no.

Finally swallowing, you said, "You know I can never tell you no."

It was Diavolo's turn to widen his eyes in shock. "Darling," he whispered.

"That was something you said, yes? I heard it in your voice in my mind just now," you stated. A smile threatened to grace his lips, and he suddenly wrapped himself around you, holding you very tightly against him.

"I did. You remembered," he whispered.

"I-I'm sorry..." you whispered. "That's all I remember, but I'm glad I do."

"That's alright, it's a start," he replied before feverishly kissing you. Hearing how happy he was enough to spark fires of delight and wonder in you, seeking to know more.

"Diavolo," you whispered, his name foreign but now delicious on your lips.

"Tell me what you want," he ordered.

"Show me how you make love to me," you said.

Leaning onto one side, his now free hand slipped down to your sex, gently cupping it, palming over it lightly. A tiny moan escaped your lips and your eyes fluttered shut as he rubbed a finger into your folds, finding your clit.

"Eyes on me princess," he commanded in a hushed tone, and you opened your eyes again, staring into his golden irises. A small smile crossed his lips as he said, "Good girl."

His finger rubbed over your clit, massaging and encircling it, much to your body's delight. Your hips subtly bucked into his touched as you continued to quietly moan. When his finger slipped down, you gave him a rather pouty look. He smirked at you and used his thumb to continue his ministrations as he gently slid a finger into your entrance.

"Ahh- oh!" You said, somewhat surprised. "Ahh ha, that feels– oh," you tried to say in a quiet, breathy voice.

"I know you can be louder than that, my love. Let me hear you," he called to you. A burning flush dusted your face, neck, and chest, but you nodded.

Very slowly, he pumped his finger in and out of you, stroking your walls deliciously.

"Ohh, oh Diavolo," you moaned out. He added another finger, still stroking you at a slow pace, leisurely delivering sweet pleasure to you. He merely smirked down at you, watching your reactions to his movements.

"I-I need you closer," you grumbled. He leaned in closer per your request, still holding his head above you to watch your face. When he pressed his thumb into your clit, the pressure drove you to squirm around, tensing up. Easing up the pressure, he went back to thumbing your swollen bud as your slick desire coated his hand and your thighs.

"Dia– I-I need..." You trailed off, your breath hitching as your climax drifted closer and closer.

"Talk to me, baby, what is it?" he purred.

In a whisper, you craned your neck to his ear, "I need more of you. I want your cock inside me. I want to feel all of you."

When you relaxed back, his gaze was so full of want, need, desire, lust, love. He was desperate to hear those words from you.

Slowly, he removed his hand from your core and brought himself to lie on top of you. You parted your legs wide for him and brought your thighs around his hips as he settled on you. Both of you intertwined with each other, his hands taking your legs to further wrap around him, and then sinking underneath your back to keep you as close as possible. With little effort, his hips tilted up and the head of his cock nudged into your entrance.

Your eyes widened, and he saw the nervous look on your face.

"You can tell me to stop if you want," he whispered. "Please don't be afraid to say anything." You nodded and tried to relax again.

"Keep going," you whispered back.

With your consent, he sunk his hips down to yours, his cock gliding right into your soft and wet cunt. Both of you moaned in mutual enjoyment, also much to your mutual delight in one another.

"Y-You... oh my–" you tried to say, gasping as he was still sliding into you. "You feel really good," you finally said breathlessly.

"Mm, so do you," he replied in a sultry tone. He leaned his head down to kiss you, your needy lips deepening the kiss as you sought to get more. His member hit a sweet spot in you, and you moaned into his mouth and took his bottom lip in your teeth, gently biting. When you released it, he pulled his neck back to look at you.

"Does that feel good?" He asked with a small smile. You nodded eagerly and rested your hands on his shoulders, hanging on for whatever ride he was about to take you on. He stilled for a moment, letting you both feel one another, savoring how your drenched walls hugged his cock so well, and you with how perfectly filled up you felt with his warm throbbing cock inside.

Your chest started to feel heavy, and a pooling heat built up inside your abdomen the longer you two stayed that way, and finally you whimpered, "Daddy."

Diavolo's gaze darkened at that name, that sweet, sweet name. "Yes, my little love?" He cooed back, his chest vibrating against yours as he spoke.

"Please, I want more, daddy," you pleaded pitifully.

"I can't say no to you," he replied, and he hungrily kissed you again as he withdrew, but only about halfway, before easing back into you. The drag of his cock against your clenching walls nearly sent you overboard, and it was all you could do to quietly sob at how good it felt.

He stayed at that pace for a while, just slowly building up both of your pleasure with his relaxed thrusts. Fiery kisses were placed along your jaw, neck, and chest, decorating you in plumes of red as he marked you gently. Your chorus of moans filled the room, singing out your blissful enjoyment of this demon above you.

The angle of his thrusts just barely changed, and he started pressing into that spongey, soft button, and all too quickly, that build-up of pleasure started to stack up, and tears threatened to fall at the corners of your eyes from how intense it felt.

"D-Diav– I– Oh..." You mewled. "I'm going to– I can't–" you tried to say, but the pressure was building, and all you could think about was that knot that was tightening in rapid steps, your breathing becoming labored.

"That's it, you're so close. I want you to cum, princess, cum for me," he purred, finally increasing the rate of his thrusts. You squirmed beneath him, and your core tightened around his cock.

Quickly, your words just became nonsensical babbles, panting as your internal knot just kept tightening, not letting you topple over the edge of immeasurable pleasure. He grunted as his own pleasure started to peak, pushing him to thrust faster, to give you all he had. The sounds of your moans, skin slapping as his hips met yours, the headboard of the bed slamming into the wall, it all made for such an erotic symphony of noises, he just needed to hear one more thing.

"Please, my love, cum with me," he moaned to you. His rhythm was lost as he slammed a few hard thrusts into you, and that's when you finally let loose, your coils breaking, and the floods of your heated euphoria encased every nerve in your body.

"Ahh! Daddy!" you wailed as you came fully apart beneath him, seeing the entire cosmos when your eyes screwed shut.

"Fuck– MC," he moaned as he found his release, tightening his hold on you. He sank himself fully into you as his cock throbbed, releasing his hot cum deep into you. Your warm juices ran out, flowing over his cock and seeping out of you.

*You buried your face into his neck as you trembled, trying to come down from the high. The little whimpers escaping your lips were getting quieter, and your grip on his shoulders eased up. And he simply just held you, giving you as much time as you needed.

After a few minutes, you finally went limp and released your hold on Diavolo. Carefully, he untangled himself from you and proceeded to clean you up. He disappeared for a few minutes to do the same for himself, returning to you in the position he left you in, spread out on his bed, eyes closed. He crawled back in beside you and pulled you into his embrace. You snuggled up into his naked body, embracing the heat he provided.

"I love you," he muttered into the top of your head. "I know you don't remember and you don't have to say it, but I simply had to tell you."

You simply brought your hand up over your head to caress his cheek in silent reply. It went without saying, you could tell this demon loved you very much, and it nearly broke your heart to know you couldn't say it back, but you hoped eventually you could.

Feeling exhaustion take hold from everything that happened, even though it was barely midmorning, your body relaxed and you drifted off into a peaceful slumber.

yeah Always. typically music and sometimes a show (though i have a really bad habit of getting distracted when there's a show on lol) and sometimes an audiobook/podfic/text to speech of my school textbooks. mostly music though 👍

22. do you have a favorite color palette to work with?

yesssss i LOVE working with really bright colors like neons n shit rn im especially fond of white + black + bright red + bright blue + bright yellow but honestly i adore working w anything that can burn ur eyes. not that i get to do much of that as of late i've been trying to keep things sexy and spooky for october. oh but i also adore greyscale w red. greyscale w red is always a banger if i can't figure out a color scheme and it can't be neon then i like using greyscale w red a lot

for the artist ask game

[tamelee]

hi tamelee!

I'm here to ask for a little bit of advice if that's okay (: about a month ago I bought a Wacom drawing pad so I could start experimenting with digital art. artists like you here on tumblr have really inspired me to start making art. but I feel kinda.. lost. I've been mostly drawing naruto manga caps and I'm getting better but I guess I don't know where to go from here. coloring and shading scares me lol. I'm using clip studio paint and it's just a little.. intimidating. I feel discouraged, like I won't be able to do it. how did you do it tamelee? did you watch a lot of tutorials, or did you experiment until you figured things out? any advice you'd have for a beginner artist I'd really appreciate.

thank you veryvery much for your time ^^

Hi Nonee! 🧡 Sure!

Oh I think that’s a very good place to start. As well as drawing subjects you like ^^! Hmm, tbh I’ve just experimented a lot, but I don’t think my way of having done things was the most efficient. You might want to follow tutorials step by step? You can try coloring only with flat colors until you feel a bit more confident with that as well as cell-shading (toon-shading/non-realistic, like in anime) instead of rendering further as that can all be confusing at first. I personally never truly understood shading until I studied cell-shading and made my art a lot more readable. A lot of Anime uses this; 

You see how there is a base color, a darker color for shadows and highlights? (Sometimes not even highlights.) 

When you start to study it from existing work you’ll start to notice things like color always being in the same area of saturation and when you suddenly have a color that is way more saturated than the other it can look off. (See example.) But this is a guideline, not a rule. In your own art you can especially use saturation and brightness to help aid you to direct a viewer's focus and even tell a story.

I LOVE ‘How to train you dragon’ and ‘Kung Fu Panda’ for this because their coloring is so inspiring and if you truly want to learn from professionals... well those are the type of media to look for of course! I have an entire folder to inspire me just based on those.

Do you see how calculated those color combo’s are?!?! Here you see both analogous and complementary schemes and it is actually through looking at the things I like that I learned it >< The orangey colors stand out and are bright which helps you to focus on that area whereas the complimentary scheme is used to bring characters together.

If drawing Manga-caps is something you love to do, then maybe for coloring you can study screen-caps from Anime or even other animated films. I’d recommend to take it step by step, though I haven’t really applied it myself, from the video’s I’ve seen and artists I’ve followed it is always advised to have an art-goal that you can work toward. Maybe you first want to focus on lineart and then laying down a base color where the colors are harmonious and next would be cell-shading maybe and then you can start adding another light-source etc- eventually you can decide to create more depth or practice with monochromatic coloring, maybe even greyscale to learn values. But right away that can all sound a bit intimidating doesn't it? Find things that you like and then maybe you can open them in your program and just study. Find a brush you like, put on some music or a show on the background and for a moment play around with it without needing to create a finished piece. This is also how I learned how things like adjustment layers work or what all the different kinds of tools do. I have to agree with you, CSP is intimidating for me as well >< so this is kinda how I approach it as there are so many add-ons and additions within it but I try to only learn what I need for that moment so I don't overwhelm myself.  I definitely try to find video’s that can help me with creating Manga though! ^^ There are plenty!  It'll get easier eventually, you'll learn the program and you start to recognize placements for shadows and you will get a feel for the coloring- no worries 💪 Learning something new will always stay intimidating, every time I open up a new document I feel it too. It's not easy at all, but you kinda have to allow yourself to experiment and even make mistakes because practice is never perfect. I have some beginner tips written here- I hope any of this is somewhat helpful 🌷🫶

there's something so charming about hunter, but in a soothing way

it doesnt mean she cant be silly ofc, but her eyes reflect so much of her moods and personality

when she's with the eagle she looks calm and gentle and much of the expressions she makes are towards the eagle; when nimue gets the bird, when the godslayer stuns the eagle and got one of the flaps and at the end of the game when he corrupts the eagle completely there were always a close at her face to show us how worried hunter was towards her friend

it's as if the eagle highlights hunter in some way, cause if you think about it hunter is not really an important person; she's an outsider and a stranger, and eagle mother is there not only to push her forwards, but she also works like this excuse to develop what lies inside hunter - her feelings

the more i think about, like no human(oid) character in the pathless have a mouth, which is an interesting decision - may it be because the animator said "nuh uh i aint doing this" or because they had other intentions - having no mouth makes it harder to humanize a character cause to do so you work around facial expression mostly

for characters like the diver or the little guy from journey it works cause humanizing them is not the focus - they are vessels for the player to experience the message of the game, much like a blank page, but hunter is a more defined type of character, she's not only for the player to control; there are instance where she speaks for herself (literally), she reacts towards her environment (like when she groans when she hits the ground), it's a bit of "i exist in relation to others" kind of thing i dont even know if this explanations make sense

the thing is, if you gonna hide the mouth (and it's funny cause they got rid of the mouths but not of the speech), to deliver something believable you have to put extra attention in other places, like eyes (which is probably the reason why they made her eyes big, for emphasis) and corporal expression (i love all of hunter animations like ALL of them, the idles are so cool and my favorite has to be the climbing one HAVE YOU SEEN THAT CREATURE)

another aspect that locks my eyes on hunter is her color palette; she feels a bit like 60% red and 40% black which an almost dangerous distribution cause it gets near the boring looking too evenly palette, but i feel like this problem is partially solved by the color choice cause black and red is very iconic (but i see that this can be subjective, so take it with a grain of salt)

to give some examples: im typing from an nitro acer (black red palette), you can see cars with that bright red (+black of the tires), and i can name a few characters with red+black combination, like matoi ryuko from kill la kill, kaguya, that masochist from that cassino games school (she's iconic i will recognize but i wont lose my time googling it i dont wanna know details about that anime)

(also if i had to point a match for hunter from another media....... kikyo my beloved i fucking love you my gay awakening i kept watching inuyasha cause i wanted to see you on my screen omg)

but at the same time her color scheme puzzles me: what does it mean? usually color is used for storytelling or readability purposes

hunter red black contrasts very well against the greens/whites/oranges of the landscape, mostly bc it's highly saturated; but then you get to the boss fight and......

i know that the boss fights dont take as many screen time as exploration but considering that they are the action moment hmm idk the math aint mathing here

well what's about storytelling? a bit of the same problem shown on the above image; hunter shares the color scheme with the corrupted tall ones and godslayer which makes things even more confusing

(seriously am i stupid and didnt see the obvious hint everyone else saw and im just here staring at the walls idk)

that said i have come up with my own worms to explain this and it comes down to: it's not from the land/natural

godslayer and the corrupted tall ones shouldnt exist, they are not natural to this world and actually an evil twist of the reality; hunter not necessarily is corrupted, but is also not natural (from the island), she's an outsider, it's about this feeling of not-belonging

however in the end of the day the color choice is also about readability and keeping things cohesive; stretching the color palette of the entire game just to give hunter a different look would do more damage than helping, imagine changing to something not that far like a pink or yellow, things still would change drastically

in the end i still love hunter very much ma babegurl <3 sillly stupid<333 my dear blorbo<333 hope she finds a lot of hobbies <33333

Trade offer

I get: Licorice x Almond fan child

You get: a wacky Mushroom that will fill you with whimsy

Do you accept? (PleazspelasepleaseIneedlicolmondcontentibegofthee)

I know this has been probably months in the making (sorry about that), but I finally got to it, and their names are Marzipan Cookie and Black Sesame Cookie

Originally I was just going to stick with Marzipan, but after getting that thing from anon with suggestions for Marzipan’s character, I decided to use one of the other names for some of the other ideas listed. Thanks again to that anon for the help

I came up with these names a long time ago, so I don’t entirely remember Black Sesame’s name reasoning, other than I think it was based off the seeds and it was because those seeds are a dark color like licorice? And probably some other reason relating to Almond that I can’t remember. But for Marzipan, it’s because marzipan is made from ground almonds

Marzipan and black sesame seeds:

I’ll say one thing, I feel like Marzipan looks almost nothing like Licorice. Hmm, maybe she was younger she had a goth phase where she dressed more like him and maybe dyed her hair? I dunno, but at this point she’s moved past that. I also feel like she looks more like a journalist, when she’s supposed to be a cop. She has a badge somewhere on her jacket, you just don’t see it. The anon mentioned something about skull cuffs, so I thought might as well give her that, so yeah her cuff links are skull shaped. Also originally, her jacket was orange, but I changed it to purple because I thought one of them should at least have a color scheme similar to Licorice (also I was waiting on my friend for a consultance on which colors to use, but she’s going out on vacation, so I just stuck with purple. I should probably find more consultants on this stuff than just her, but also I feel like that’d be rude)

Also I know neither Licorice nor Almond have white hair, but the pictures of marzipan I found were usually an off white color, so I chose to stick with that

As for Black Sesame, I’m pretty happy with his design, it’s pretty much what I wanted. I wanted him to look somewhat like a crazy and/or homeless person, even though he isn’t one. Though maybe I could have given him more detail. Ah well. Oh also, Black Sesame has a slouch, but is also just generally a bit short. Sorry just random detail I wanted to mention

So anyways, let’s get into the two, starting with Marzipan. So she’s part of the police force like Almond (who’s probably the Commissioner at this point), and she specifically deals with homicide cases. Previously, she attended the Parfaedia Institute and learned magic, as well as some from Licorice, and probably her most notable asset is that she can temporarily bring a victim back from the dead via licorice magic (even if she herself doesn’t have much licorice in her dough), so they can figure out how they died and who killed them. Unfortunately, she has the bad luck that almost all of the victims she deals with don’t have those answers, so she still has to try and figure things out for herself, though the victims can be helpful in the process. To be honest, her cases tend to go more like Ace Attorney cases, with a lot of wacky hijinks and things being relatively light hearted (you know for a murder case). She loves her job but she can get frustrated sometimes with the amount of weird stuff she has to deal with to get her job done. Also you know that clip of suspects having to sing I Want it That Way? I’d imagine she’d be the cop in that scene (sorry I’ve never seen Brooklyn 99, only clips)

As for Black Sesame, he’s a teenager that also attends Parfaedia, but he has little if any interest in learning magic, and is only still going because he likes the potions track (which Prune Juice likely had some involvement in, but I’m not sure how). His big thing is that he’s an author of a series of murder mysteries, which he loosely bases off of Marzipan’s talks of her cases (and case files as well as her diary, but he doesn’t tell her about that last bit). Like he’ll lift certain elements from her cases that he thinks are interesting (as well as the main character being a cop that brings people back from the dead), and then insert them into this stories. Though unlike how Marzipan’s actual cases tend to be more on the wacky side, Black Sesame’s versions tend to be incredibly dark and gritty with gratuitous amounts of violence and vulgarity. However, Black Sesame doesn’t just do this because he wants to make edgy fanfiction, it’s because he’s trying to make statements based on the stories at hand, choosing to use the dark tone as a form of satire while also being a commentary on things (unfortunately I don’t really know what those messages or things are, because I’m not good at deeper meanings to stories, I kind of have to be told them by other people to understand them). He generally doesn’t condone the dark things he puts in his stories, he just uses them to make a point

His books are actually incredibly successful, some people reading it for satire, and some just because of the dark content. However he hasn’t made it publicly known that he’s the writer of the series (he uses a pen name), with it really only being kept between his publishers and his family. He does it partially because he thinks that revealing a teenager wrote these books could lessen people’s opinions on the books, and also he thinks it’s funny if he doesn’t tell people, like some of his classmates read them and love them, including plenty of people who just generally don’t like him, and he thinks it’s hilarious, and he wants to keep it up until the best possible moment to publicly reveal himself so that he can see the looks on their faces when they realize he’s the author

Marzipan doesn’t read the books (hence why she doesn’t know he reads her diary for info), mostly just because she knows the main character is based on her and the stories are based on her cases, and she finds it a bit too surreal to read about. And while no one knows the real identity of the author, other people in the precinct suspect Marzipan has some connection to them, considering the main character sounds suspiciously like her and the cases in it sound a bit too much like their cases for these to be complete coincidence

Also I’m considering the idea that they have a youngest sister called Swirl Taffy who wants to be a wizard and is just generally an optimistic child, but Black Sesame keeps trying to get her into dark things and Marzipan has to stop him (but she probably already knows the dark stuff and is cool with it), but I don’t think I’ll draw her, just a random concept

But yeah, I think that’s all on Marzipan and Black Sesame. Hope you like them!

Raindrop-covered Show Window / Episode 3

Author: Nishioka Maiko

Characters: Souma, HiMERU

"(Now then... Where to start...)"

← Previous ✧ Directory ✧ Next →

Season: Winter

Location: Saison Avenue

Souma: Let's see... The address they provided should be around here... Which one is it, exactly? There are several similar stores here—

Mm? Ohh, I recognize that figure from behind...!

"Himeru"-dono~!

HiMERU: —Aah, Kanzaki-san. Good morning to you.

Souma: Good morning. So this is the place where the recording will be carried out. There are many similar stores in "seson avenyuu", so I was in a bit of a bind.

HiMERU: Indeed, there are a number of stores of the same type next to each other. Moreover, the names of the stores are all in foreign languages, which Kanzaki-san isn't very good at.

Souma: Certainly. With so many shops around, I think it would be nice to have some shops with names like "Zen" or "Wabi-sabi". [1]

HiMERU: ...Those don't seem like names that would resonate very strongly with young people.

Souma: Is that so? Hmm. It is difficult to understand the preferences of the young.

Incidentally, "Himeru"-dono. I get the feeling that the "staffu" appear to be in more of a hurry than usual. Has something occurred?

HiMERU: Ah, yes. It looks like it's going to rain, so they want to start shooting early. They're probably busy setting up.

Souma: Hmm. Now that you mention it, it does seem that the skies are gloomy today. I recall that the weather forecast said that it would rain on and off for the rest of the week.

HiMERU: Yes. This recording session might be at the weather's mercy.

Souma: At the weather's mercy, huh... If that's the case, I will devote my efforts to finishing the recording without a hitch.

HiMERU: —Agreed. HiMERU looks forward to working with you today.

Souma: Ah, likewise. I will be counting on you.

The recording begins.

Souma: Hmmm...

(Mm? As expected of "Himeru"-dono. It looks like he has already begun decorating the "shou windou".)

(Usually, I'd be worrying about what to do on my end—But this time, I'm different!)

(I watched a "dokyumentarii" program about "disupurei dezainaas" in advance, so I have prepared myself by studying what "disupurei dezain" is!)

(First, choose a "thiimu"—that is to say, it seems I should decide on a subject. Furthermore, it was said that to begin with, one should choose a familiar topic that is easy to express. So, I thought about this...)

(—The subject this time will be "my individuality"!)

HiMERU: (Now then... Where to start...)

(Well, HiMERU already has a theme in mind, so all he has to do is work towards it.)

HiMERU: (The program producer said HiMERU is a trendsetter. In other words, they must be looking for designs that incorporate current trends.)

(On the way here, HiMERU visited various stores on Saison Avenue to observe trends and show windows.)

(All that's left to do is figure out how to incorporate it with the theme HiMERU is currently thinking of... It's an opportunity to demonstrate his skills.)

(Speaking of which. It seems that they have provided a variety of objects to make it easier to create the desired image.)

Let's temporarily place them to align with the theme.

After a while.

HiMERU: Place this over here... No, this one is too assertive. It doesn't give off the impression of an accent color, rather, it's more like the colors are fighting each other.

If that's the case... Then, move this over here, and by reducing the color a little more...

—Yes, that's good. It's just as HiMERU imagined. Let's use this color scheme.

HiMERU: (Phew. For the first day, that's enough.)

(If everything gets done too quickly at the beginning, it will make for a dull program. It's also important to show some of the anguish in the process.)

(Speaking of which. How is Kanzaki-san's progress going? When we talked earlier, he didn't seem very confident about it...)

Souma: Uu, um~mm. Mmgh, mmmgh...

HiMERU: (From the atmosphere, it seems that he is struggling considerably. Is he okay...?)

(No way around it. Let's lend a helping hand this time. We have undertaken this job together, and it's necessary for Kanzaki-san to stand his ground here.)

Souma: Uhm~mm...

HiMERU: —Kanzaki-san.

Souma: Hm~mm...?

HiMERU: Kanzaki-san!

Souma: Woah! Apologies, I was completely focused. "Himeru"-dono, is there something wrong?

HiMERU: —Not exactly. HiMERU was just, a little concerned about your situation. You seem to be struggling. If you're willing, HiMERU could offer you some advice?

Souma: Ah, did I make you worry? What a terrible thing I've done.

Nevertheless, no assistance is needed! Moreover, this is a showdown. It would not be a fair match if I were to ask you for advice.

HiMERU: Ummm... Well, that may be true... but...

Souma: However, I appreciate your thoughtfulness. I am in your debt!

HiMERU: ...No need.

HiMERU: (Rather, you should've asked in order to make the showdown more exciting...)

Zen is a school of Mahayana Buddhism. Wabi-sabi is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection, also derived from Buddhist teachings.

Rio for the character meme! I care her so much

RIOOO I CARE HER TOO

First impression: when I played her DL event I was like "aww Shark has a little sister!! I love that she uses an ice themed deck...." rly enjoyed her from the moment I saw her.

Impression now: GOD. RIO KASTLE. I LOVE HER TO BITS. AND ZEXAL HATES HER HAVING NARRATIVE AGENCY SO FUCKING BADLY this poor girl literally spends like 2/3s of the series fridged!! she's in the hospital like 4 times!!! when she duels she kicks absolute ASS and shes a fucking ALIEN DEMON with a GORGEOUS COLOR PALETTE and then whenever she does something zexal is like "ok well thats enough of that *kneecaps her*" IT'S SO SAD. LOVE ZEXAL TO BITS BUT THE YUGIOH WOMAN WRITING JUMPED OUT SO BAD.

Favorite moment: Technically it is a Marin/Merag Moment but that moment where she is just wailing on Vector's ass in their duel just rocks like absolute hell. Zexal art style looking just absolutely raw as hell the whole time. Absolute SEA MONSTER

and then she fucking loses and dies of course but. in that moment before. she whipped like absolute hell. As for a Specifically Rio Moment I do really like when she's properly introduced to the group and is just immediately kicking ass at every sport on campus. she's a JOCK!!!!

Idea for a story: HMM HMmm hmmm..... something more introspective with her...Zexal spends so much time focusing on Shark's Species Identity Crisis, but I wanna know how Rio was feeling about in her own right too. Cuz that's like...a Pretty big shakeup to get hit with, and she's even younger than Shark is. How is she coping with memories that simultaneously are hers and aren't hers. zexal tell me. tell me about rio. PLEASE.

Unpopular opinion: what are the unpopular rio opinions!! ummm hmm well i guess. if you're making Sexy Booby Art of her. i kind of want to attack you like a wild dog. that is is a MIDDLE SCHOOLER!!!!! also again it just sucks that in the grand scheme of the show she did Not get nearly enough screentime but that's barely an opinion that's just What the Text Came Like.

Favorite relationship: you know I gotta be stanning my YUGIOH SIBLINGS!! I do adore Rio and Shark's dynamic, they've really only had each other for so long in so many lifetimes and it's like... waahhh ;__; I do also like the like...multiple little moments of her hanging out with Dumon during the back half Barian-Earth Catastrophe.... you must understand they are both lesbians to me. Dyke vibing. (also when DL had Quattro apologize to Rio for everything during her event...oh my godddd reflecting on that one after meeting her in show properly got me SOOOO SOFT. I THINK THEY COULD BE FRIENDS.)

Favorite headcanon: THIS GIRL IS A JOCK!!! another member of the proud Yugioh Ice-Associated Lesbian Jocks (along with Alexis.) Also I feel liek she definitely has...some sort of implacable fear about deep water and pits where you can't see the bottom. Looking at them makes her a little queasy, a little anxious. Also borrowing this one from my pal but BURN SCARS!! i think she should have them...this poor girl got literally SET ON FIRE.

[godmodebeginswithlesbians]

If you could insert a single Zelda character of your choice into any FE game, who would you choose, where to, and why?

hmm, my first thought is impa into any, most of the games could use a viable prepromote (the only viable prepromotes i can think of are titania and seth, who are in fe9/10 and fe8, respectively, and there are 17 fire emblems out now)

however... maybe saria into engage? lets be honest, seadall absolutely sucks as a unit. like, even among dancers/bards/herons/what-have-you. she could revive the bard class from fe7 and insert a little bit of green into engage's color scheme. because if you look at the characters of engage, who are your green characters? clanne?? etie???

clanne is more beige, and etie is more orange, imo. compared to the green units of older games...

.. the state of green characters in engage is a sorry one (boyd isnt here because hes more red to me) especially considering engage is a return to form when it comes to sheer amount of color on it's characters
