Can I get a short thirst for TFP Breakdown? Ty!
Warnings: sub/bottom character + top/dom reader + cybertronian reader + face-sitting + praise + valve worshipping + Breakdown is tough as shit but gets super embarrassed in bed
A/N: I had so much fun making this because I absolutely love tfp breakdown
Also until I looked at his design again, I never realized how big his chest is it literally rivals Shockwave
Tumblr media
"...Are you sure about this?" Breakdown squirms a bit on your chest. "Of course I am," you reply simply. "Besides, I am the one who asked you to do this." Breakdown nods. It's true, earlier that day you had asked him if he could sit on your face. It was a very random request and it definitely took him off guard. With a face flushed with energon, he agreed and you hugged him and gave him a kiss.
You grabbed his hips and smiled at him sweetly. "You mind removing this for me?" you gesture to his valve panel. "Yeah..." Breakdown agrees and let's his panel open. Breakdown shivers a bit at the feeling of cool air hit his valve and he turns his head away from you. He couldn't properly see you over his chest, but he could feel the weight of your optics on his valve. "...Are you just going to stare?" he huffs.
"Yup," you replied. Breakdown's valve was so pretty. His valve lips were a dark blue with small yellow biolights and his node was an amber color that brightened when his charge was becoming rampant. "I can't help but admire what I find beautiful you know." That has Breakdown blushing even harder. "Let's just get on with this," he grumbles. You take a moment to admire your partner's valve a bit more before lifting him up with your servos and dropping him straight onto your awaiting intake.
"Mhhh---!" Breakdown whimpers as he feels your glossa delve into his valve so soon. He moans lowly as you suck on his anterior node, creating a loud popping sound when you pull off. Your glossa continues to work itself deeper into Breakdown's walls, stimulating shallow nodes. "Unngh! Mhnn, [name]!" Breakdown is already sobbing your designation as he clamps his thighs tightly around your helm, his servos looking for something to balance on.
The feeling of his thighs slightly crushing your helm only spurs you on further, relentlessly thrusting your glossa in and out of Breakdown's valve bringing his closer to his overload. You could feel your spike thunking against your panel, but you decided to ignore it for now. Breakdown's breath comes out in short puffs of hot air, his big chest rising quickly as he shakes. His yellow optics are dimmed as his mouth hangs open, letting out needy moans and pathetic yelps as your glossa continuously strikes his nodes. You can se his charge slightly dancing around his bulky frame, telling you that he was very close to his overload.
"[Name]--- Please, O-ohh! Anghh, I'm gonna--" Breakdown moans become high-pitched as he borders on the edge of his climax. Right before he overloads, you bite down on his node. Hard.
Breakdown seizes up, his body fully tensing up before his optics roll back, letting out a noiseless keen as he overloads violently. You greedily lap up his juices as he squirts, his thighs trembling uncontrollably. Breakdown pants heavily as he attempts to recover from his overload. He finally remembers that he's still sitting on your face and quickly tries to get up, worried that you might not be able to breathe. His fluids drench your face as he lifts his trembling thighs up to get up from your face giving you a perfect view of his valve. His array was soaked with light pink lubricant, his valve lips drenched and still twitching a bit as his node brightened.
Right when Breakdown was about to get up completely, you grabbed him by the hips again and pulled him down, firmly planting him on your intake. "[n-name]! I thought we wer---Oh! Ahhh...nngh!" Breakdown's protests were futile as you swiped your glossae through the mess of lubricant on his valve. You were far from done.

I fucking adore your comic panelling, any advice on how to do it? Like specific ratios or ways to divide the page?
god there's so much advice i COULD give but i really dont wanna end up writing a book here. so I guess I'll say this: however you divide the page you should be CONSISTENT with it, i literally just learned/internalized this but it's made comic paneling soo much easier. when you break that consistency it will be more impactful. hold up lemme grab some pages.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so i recently started making loose stitches a 4 tier comic. it's not the exact same for each page cuz i'm lazy but i think it's made legibility way better. before i think it was kinda uhhhhh a little all over the place. not BAD but a little difficult to tell where your eyes supposed to go sometimes. which isnt great for a commic.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the page on the left in particular has always bothered me cuz i always read the top panels incorrectly and it's like. fuck man what is the paneling here why is it in two columns ????? that's so hard to understand. but the page on the right can be more or less easily understood (by someone who knows how to read comics) even without panel borders because it's just a simple 4 panel square.
one thing my comic professor really stressed was that he didn't like weird paneling or weird borders. for the most part, a square is fine. AND HE'S RIGHT. weird paneling is fun and cool but should be used sparingly or with intention, cuz if you do it too much then like. how tf are ppl gonna read your comic.
that being said there are a lot of cool ways to cut up panels even if they're just squares hold on lemme grab some examples
Tumblr media
so the panels here are all square but the image in the one at the bottom is almost like a mural. one thing i really like to using is a lot of heavy BLACK, what can i say silhouette's have my entire heart.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
in my fable comic, I used a 3 tier system. it wasn't the same exact size across all pages but all pages had 3 tiers of paneling. that way i can be a little more flexible with the SIZE of the panels to emphasize the more important things, without it feeling like it's all over the place
Tumblr media Tumblr media
meanwhile in my comic final i used a 4 tier system where each tier was nearly the same across every page, but you can collapse tiers together for establishing shots and big reveals so that they're more impactful. it's still fully within the grid system I set up so it doesn't feel like it's messing with shit either.
ok i just spent a lot of time rambling about this one particular concept and it's probably not even what you wanted to hear about :') i didnt even go into ratios or anythinggg guhhhh sowwy
other than all that i'd just say you gotta keep looking at what comic artists have written and take note of how they use space and cut things up. there's this book called How To Read Nancy and it has all these exercises for understanding the building blocks of nancy. for real the author is OBSESSIVE and goes through everything of a 3 panel nancy strip from body language to spot blacks to the minutia of the background. we used this book in my class and did some of the exercises in the back and i think it's really good at getting you to THINK about what you're drawing. and you can easily pirate it if you're broke.
also try to make sure things dont get stagnant on a page. zoom out if you're only doing close ups (i try to make sure every page of loose stitches has at least one full body shot even tho I'm lazy and wanna just do talking heads- talking heads arent interesting!!)
also, take advantage of the fact you're drawing a COMIC. you can do shit in comics that you can't do in other mediums, try to implement them when u can! ALSO PRACTICE. you're not gonna get better just by reading and watching. you gotta do it lol. ok ok that's enough and you didn't even ask for that stuff you asked about PANELING sfdasfsd byeee

Eunectes/Lancet-2, did you know Lancet-2 is large enough to contain a person inside her? Eunectes has an obsession with machines bordering on a desire to be one, I’m thinking those two could have some fun together.
Wonder if that space inside Lancet-2 is sound proof?
Potential tags, medfet, wireplay, machine ideation, bondage, overstim and fun medicines
Doesn’t need all of this just chase what sounds fun! I just think this ship is cute and don’t see it much
(oh god i'm SO going to hell for this. nsft everybody.)
Tumblr media
...
"Lancet, can I look inside and see?"
"Permission: confirmed. Ple-ase be gen-tle Mi-ss Eu-Eu-Eu-ne-ne-ne-"
"-Don't speak! It'll be okay, Lancet. You can go into sleep mode if it's too much for you."
"Affirm-rm-rm-mm-mm-mm-"
With a deeply sympathetic frown, Eunectes smoothed a hand over Lancet's smooth, slightly over-warm chassis affectionately and began opening up the hatch from the side.
"...Ah, I think I see the issue." Eunectes shone a light inside and squinted through the tangle of wires, "I think if you let me come inside I can fix it."
"No, don't come inside! I'll get pregnant!"
"...Wh..." Eunectes balked, "What the-? Where'd you learn that?"
"Lovely Lovely Lovely Miss Closu-re-re-re-re-read it to me-"
"I'll have a stern talk with her after this about what she's reading around your audio synthesis module. Sorry, Lancet. I hate to do this but I do need to get in to help."
"Affirmative-veve."
Eunectes opened the panel all the way and tried to part the wires, but they were too tangled. She knelt inside and gently pressed forward until the top half of her body made it inside. It was humid and the metal surfaces were very warm to the touch, even with the whirring of fans inside the large chassis.
"Powering down. Good night."
All the lights inside went off at once.
Damn it, I can't see anything now. Eunectes brought the rest of herself inside to try to reach the emergency boot-up switch and pressed it.
"Starting up. Warning. Foreign body-dy-dy-dy detected-"
The panel Eunectes had used to get in suddenly swung closed and latched with a click.
"A-Ah, wait-" She tapped gently on the inside of the chassis, "Lancet, it's me-"
There must have been some kind of memory leak issue as well, Eunectes reasoned, for Lancet to not have retained her memory of the past few minutes far enough to realize that Eunectes was trying to help her.
Poor thing, she thought, and tried to navigate the thick cords entwining throughout the inside of her hull.
"Initiating quarantine of foreign body. Organic matter detected. Nervous system impairment agent ready-y-y-y- to deploy-"
"W-Wait-"
Eunectes scarcely had the time to call out-a mutiny of syringes popped out from every side compartment and stuck her almost everywhere her skin was exposed-into her lower back, her calves, her thighs, her waist, and even her tail. Whatever they were full of was injected fully, each syringe emptying out into her and detaching with a clatter against the bottom of the hull.
With a sluggish groan she feels the effects instantly. Her body goes limp and slouches, helpless as a hammock of cords catches her.
The weightless feeling, both mentally and physically, makes her feel like her whole body is filling up with steaming hot water, from her toes to the top of her head. Heat swirls inside the chassis, and perspiration beads her skin.
"Neutralization of foreign body: confirmed success. Engaging termination protocol."
'Termination'...is she going to...kill me?
A current starts to pulse throughout every single wire. Even if she could have anticipated it, she would have been helpless to brace against it-and yet, she feels no actual pain. Rather, the buzzing and humming and vibrating of the wires feels like it's only at a frequency high enough to maybe harm a rodent.
Oh, she thinks suddenly, of course there'd be no need to make it much stronger than that. It probably was designed to keep out pests and nothing more.
The current surges and shoots down her body everywhere it touches, and while it stings a little, she knows it won't seriously hurt her, even if she were locked inside for a while.
A far more insidious feeling replaces the fear she felt moments ago as the wires and cords continue to vibrate and tremble along her relaxed body.
"Mmnh..."
The sound of machinery in her ears and around her is rhythmic and steady with each pulse of the current. Her legs, dead weight, finally spread and slide over a particularly thick cord and it vibrates hard as she straddles it.
A long, heavy moan falls out of her mouth as her body responds to the physical stimulation, and while she can't move on her own, she begins to wish she could-
-just-
-She's ashamed for the thoughts she's thinking, for defiling Lancet even if it's in her mind only.
But she's probably not programmed to stop until she eradicates the threat. And she's not going to actually hurt me. Her biosensors are going to keep picking up my heart beat...
Shit, if only she could move, just a little-an idea occurs to her, but it's awful and necessitates some movement from at least the lower half of her body.
She bides her time, waiting in heavenly agony as the shocks keep coursing through her, vibrating between her thighs and against her clit. She just needs a little sensation to return to her legs-aside from the wet warmth slowly dripping down her thighs.
I can't take it. I can't take it I can't take this please please hurry-
Eventually, finally, she manages to move, and she ruts herself along the bundle of cord as firmly as she can, back and forth.
Instantly, she feels her tight shorts sliding ever so slightly out of the way, feels the electric pulses catch at the moisture buried beneath. The shock that comes is enough to refer sensation throughout the rest of her body, and she leans into it as hard as she can, gritting her teeth with a pained groan as she lets it force her to climax, feels her heart skip a beat-
"Terminationconfirmedopeninghatch-"
The side door opens again and Eunectes throws herself through onto the floor, panting, gasping, the remains of her clothing in complete disarray. She curls onto her side, hands diving between her legs, trembling and hyper-sensitive as she gasps through the rest of her orgasm, skin flush and hot.
"System restore: complete! Good afternoon, Miss Eunectes!" Lancet spins on her wheels and swivels around to examine her, "Oh dear! You are exhibiting signs of fever and dehydration. Your vitals are elevated as well. I recommend drinking a great deal of water and taking some fever-reducing medication. Would you like me to dispense some for you?"
From where she lays on the ground, Eunectes pants raggedly, shaking her head quickly.
...She's too good for this world. She really is.
"N-No thank you!" She answers a little too emphatically, "-No more medicine for now."

*Possible Spoilers for those who don’t read the manga *
Honestly there’s a large part of me that thinks Narnia is a red herring. We honestly don’t know too much about him other than Kalego looking up to him (at least when he was 14), that he recommended Atori and Shiida, that he’s high up on the border patrol chain and he’s powerful enough to potentially be a member of the 13 crowns. But something that caught my eyes was how much Nishi was emphasizing him and Baal. But to me it kind of seemed more like the kind of way you emphasize two factions of a war rather than two allies working together.
On top of that, at the bottom of this panel, the words roughly translate to “The next 13 crown candidates who will be in charge of the new era of the netherworld are gathered. What are his outstanding intentions?” And that kind of gives me the vibes that Narnia’s intentions might not be what Baal wants. They might not be good intentions, but they might not be Baal’s either.
Tumblr media
And maybe it’s just me, but if I was Henry and I suspected someone high up of returning to origins, what would I do? I would send in a spy. Someone who would have reason to return to origins and could conceivably convince others they had in order to get information. And who would be better than a well-trained member of the Naberius clan who seemed to be reputable for not being allowed any real fun and locked up with so many rules it’s surprising they're functional beings, honestly, but I digress.
Plus, a good amount of what I've seen is everyone assuming the 'day of the 13th betrayal' has to do something with the six fingers doing something, but what if it's actually Narnia betraying Baal and revealing that Baal is the perpetrator? I mean, what better way to get into the 13 crowns than to throw one of them under the bus, and reveal a plot that the other current members couldn't figure out?
IDK, it's just the vibes I get. Although I can also believe he's a villain. Following anime logic means, someone that good-looking and that good of fashion sense has to be a bad guy.

It was a good year for art
Commentary for each artwork under the cut :D
February - biblically accurate bam - This was back when the jokes of ‘biblically accurate (insert noun here)’ had really hit mainstream, or maybe I just finally got inspiration to do something about this topic. Since Bam is the night, I added the usual night symbols of moons and stars. The waves at the bottom represent how the tides change with the cycle of the moon, and it ties in well with the idea of Bam being a ‘new wave’ in the Tower.

The waves at the bottom represent how the tides change with the cycle of the moon, and it ties in well with the idea of Bam being a ‘new wave’ in the Tower.
March - double city - An artwork that I haven’t released anywhere on the internet until today, as it was part of a school exhibition. The idea behind it was taking the place I grew up in and the city I lived in at the time and merging them into one location, representing how I am influenced by both cultures.
April - Marpril Colors Series - 17 Azure - This was a series of sketches I did over March and April, as a countdown for my return from Tower’s Tale (TT) hiatus. During these months, I was busy with school stuff and working on TT, so I didn’t have much time or desire to make other artworks.
May - Part 1_Page 201 - I started working on this TT page in December of the previous year, as the scene this page is a part of was important for me (oh, and the plot too). I was still practicing a new style, and though I don’t like it as much now, I still think it was worth the experimentation.
June - yanfei.jpg - This one was part of a Six Fanart Challenge that I never finished. Whoops. Anyways, I drew her because she’s the character that I’ve played with the most. I’m really proud of how I was able to capture most of the details, especially that staff, haha.
July - KBWday5.PNG - Ah, yes. The KhunBam month, where I spend 3 weeks thinking about what to post only for me to procrastinate on it until KhunBam Week arrives. I like this artwork because it’s where I finally started using references (lol), as well as understanding more organic backgrounds.
August - glitterandgold_01 - One of the two artworks I made for a WIP Big Bang. This is also the first artwork of the entire year that I finished on my laptop instead of my phone, as I had lost my stylus and only bought a new one around this time. I like that I was able to carry the dramatic mood from the sketch to the final version.
September - Part 1_Page 237 - There wasn’t a lot of artwork activity this month, apart from TT, so here is another page I’m really proud of. I wanted to communicate the overwhelming difference in power between the characters, so the pages before have a lot of open paneling and negative space that progressively build up to this one, which covers nearly the entire background in green. The frame around Goseng and Bam is actually the same proportions as the usual page border, but shrunken, to make it look like the fire was spreading beyond the edges of the page, to really emphasize the probable helplessness Bam is feeling in the situation… Sometimes, a lot of thought goes into these pages.
October - kitsune khun - This is a drawing I made for a raffle winner on Twitter. I included it here because this and the other artworks I made that week felt like they ‘clicked’. They were the ones that all the process from previous artworks were leading up to - finally I had an artwork that I was very satisfied with, where the process was fun and the final result was pretty to look at too. I’m a huge fan of using complementary colors, especially orange lighting and blue shadows..
November - Snow Study (gasp) - I don’t do studies as often as I should, so this one came as a surprise. I save a lot of images from Bing’s daily wallpaper, and since the cold weather was coming, I painted this chilly town with one as a reference. I also wanted to update my blog so it matched my current style, so this was drawn for that reason too.
December - ‘Polaroid’ mini series - “with hyung.png” - This is one of four artworks I made in a ‘polaroid photo’ style. I really like that aesthetic. There is something very nostalgic and deep about it - capturing a moment you deem important. Taking the context of polaroids and film into account, you don’t have the luxury to take various copies of a moment and pick the right one afterwards like we do nowadays, so ideally you’d want everything to be perfectly in place and extremely important before you press the shutter. And yet, in these ‘photos’, the moments captured are not of grandiose events or life-changing moments, but of casual, daily life. I wanted to appreciate the ordinary in this small series. Maybe I’ll revisit it next year.
Bonus round
There were a few artworks that didn’t make the cut, but I still wanted to talk about them. So here they are.
“A summoning ritual (that worked a little too well)” - This is where I started the habit of drawing genshin characters when I wanted them on my team. Though this one is a little rough around the edges, I still like the colors and texture of the artwork.
“met gala hwar” - I was watching a video talking about how the Gilded Gala was a disaster (unsurprisingly), and one of the looks that went by (as examples of what worked) caught my eye. So I drew Hwaryun in it.
“Part 1_Page 216.PNG” - I have a very consistent system for numbering pages - just thought you might wanna know. I didn’t count this one in the final cut because some of the panels here were from pages drawn last year, so I felt that I was cheating a bit. There is a lot of thought behind this particular panel, but I will discuss that one when I release the full cleaned-up version sometime in the next few months.
“a precious jewel” - This artwork means a lot to me. Though it was rather quick (done under an hour, curse my comic panel habits), a lot of ‘feeling’ went into it. I think that out of all of the artworks, this is the one where I’m pouring what I’m actually feeling at the moment - I can’t quite put it into words here (as it is a little awkward, and I’m afraid of things getting lost in translation too), but I’ll try. I think that for that hour, I understood where Khun was getting at with the jewel metaphor, but rather than wanting to hide someone away, it was more of wanting to keep those feelings close to my heart… that kind of thing.
“Bleak December_07” - My entry for Secret Santa this year. Just thought I’d include it. I signed up to an email address sending Edgar Allen Poe’s works, and was floored by The Raven, so the title and tone of this short comic reflect that too.
“fall for you, fall for me” - i like khunbam. and i like autumn, now. i like coloring khun’s hair, ‘cuz its color can look so different under different lightings. it’s a simple and easygoing artwork. i like simple and easygoing things sometimes too.

Gunpla-kun DX Set
Won’t lie, I’m not always a fan of character designs that are supposed to be “marketable,” but look how cute it is! This is also my first Eco-pla (which, if you don’t know, is a Gunpla made with recycled plastic), and it was an interesting experience. This type of plastic has its own qualities, being easily marred and the colors being only surface level. It’s definitely a different experience.
The Good: While this build was very simple, only taking me around 4 hours even with waiting for paint to dry, it was still fun and the build has a few tiny tricks to it that made me smile. It also has two build configurations; one standing RX-78-2 and one integrated into a runner.
The Bad: Unfortunately, even though I didn’t abide by it, the instructions recommend not swapping between those configurations due to some fragility in the plastic. My only other issues were from me experiencing this plastic-type for the first time, and learning its qualities while building.
The Details: I added a lot of paint to this one. Top down starting with the head, I dotted the vulcans with panel liner, I painted the area around the eyes and the face vents black, and painted the rear peripheral camera red to match the forehead. I considered sanding the horns, but wasn’t comfortable doing so at the time, though I’m pretty sure you can if you’re careful.
For the torso, arms, and legs, I panel lined the collar and chest vents, added yellow to the belt buckle then went around it in red, and painted the hands black. I painted the backpack black and panel lined the beam saber handles, but because of how small and fragile they are, I broke one off on accident. Luckily it holds a beam saber, so I sanded down that spot flat to look like it was removed. I panel lined the knee and ankle joints (though I probably should have painted them) as well as the bottom of the feet, and re-painted the toes red because the sides looked somewhat marred and I wanted to cover that up.
And for the accessories, I painted the beam red, the rifle black, and its scope yellow with a Gundam Marker because it’s yellow. For the shield, despite the fact that I had the box next to me and eight RX-78-2s behind me, I somehow forgot that the shield is red with a white border, and swapped the colors around, so it ended up white with a red border. Which is doubly silly since the shield is cast in red, so you’d think I’d pick up on the context clues there. Anyway, I dotted the holes with panel liner, and lightly went over the cross with a yellow Gundam Marker to finish it up.
Overall, I could recommend this one for a number of reasons. Getting to handle an Eco-pla, being a good entry-level paint kit, or just being a cute, fun build. I wouldn’t say to go out and buy it now, but if you’re shopping for Gunpla, I’d say to throw it in your cart if it’s in stock. I might even follow my own advice get a second one and do it in my own colors.

I make all of my extended family niblets a quilt when they are born. I am self taught for quilting, so some of my methods may be a bit weird, but it works for me. And each one is better than the last! This is probably my last niblet of this generation and I’m super proud of the quilt as it’s coming together.
Tumblr media
I’m doing a wide border on this one and decided to do the middle as one big block, with applique circles added on top. Note I mis-measured something and the center block ended up too wide to match the width of the top and bottom border panels, so i had to take the block in. I decided to make it into a pleat on the visible side, for more interest.
Tumblr media
tacking down the pleat before sewing so my project isn’t bristling with pins
Tumblr media
I also stitched around each circle to mark the placement. I like using a big running stitch for this instead of marking with chalk.
Tumblr media
and then the fun part, picking the colors and then making sure it all works
Tumblr media
sorry everything is so blurry. I didn’t document this project very well!

all of the circles have already had their edges folded under and pinned. Most of them I then put in temporary stitches to replace the pins before sewing. (I always get the thread caught on the pin heads--because I handsew everything as I hate the sound of the sewing machine)
I’ve almost stitched the whole top, next comes the stuffing and the back, then i get to quilt it!
I was listening to an audiobook for most of this: crocodile on a sandbank--an excellently read audiobook and very funny! the lead is hilarious, though she doesn’t intend to be.

Drawn: 2019 (Updated 2020)
Analysis:  We're fully engaged now! This is the most action I've had on a page in a while, and as a one-on-one fight I wanted to have a bit more choreography than what I'd done previously... While certainly not a decompressed scene, I think I did a pretty good job showing the action in some detail while still keeping things moving along. Even just a short bit of fighting like this takes additional time to work out though, so even with only two principle combatants this page still took a little while to make. While not perfectly to my liking, I am generally quite pleased with this page's composition and individual panel art. The action was a lot of fun to do, and I think most of the poses turned out pretty good.
If I drew it again:  Short of expanding this fight into more pages, the main thing I'd want to try to solve differently would be Hans' kick. This was a cramped page with everything going on in it, so perhaps I went with the best option that I could, but I would have liked to show Valen's forearm block more clearly (I think it was initially too, but I couldn't afford the wasted room present in the original sketch.) Otherwise I think everything is pretty good as is.
Favorite Panel: I like almost all the panels on this page, for both the cool action poses and expressions, but what really stands out to me is the composite shot of Valen and Hans at the bottom of the page. Though it is technically two panels, I really like the way they are blended together with Hans' knife as a border. On top of that, I think Hans just looks appropriately cool, and the inking there is a good example of my best yet.

M is for "Mechanisms"
Had a lot of fun doing metallics and metal colours for this one. It's been a while since I've done a Mechs quote (I think the last one was E). This one is the last verse of Lost in the Cosmos, sung by Raphaella la Cognizi about Drumbot Brian, the immortal pilot of the Starship Aurora whose entire body apart from his heart was replaced with mechanical parts
[ID: An illuminated letter M in the style of a Celtic manuscript. The letter is coloured in copper, oxblood red, grey, raw siena and poppy red, with gold illumination. Panels within the letter contain drawings of Brian's top hat, a cartoon heart, a banjo, Brian's morality switch, an anatomical heart and a drum. The empty space of the letter is filled with an illustration of Brian floating through space, the logo for High Noon over Camelot and heart and cog themed Celtic motifs. The letter forms the beginning of a quote, the rest of which is in a simple copper font. It reads "Metal bound his heart beats still. All alone and a-lowly. He's not for heaven nor yet for hell. Lost in the cosmos lonely." At the bottom of the page is a border of heart shaped Celtic knotwork . /End ID]

General thoughts and recall on the 2022 Osaka version of the Kimetsu no Yaiba Gotoge Koyoharu Exhibition, which is probably pretty similar to the Tokyo version from last year. No other images below the cut, as photos were only allowed in the above spaces, but you can scroll through photos of the gallery on the official homepage. There's wasn't a lot of previously unseen art or Taisho Secrets, nor was there much original colored artwork, but lots of thoughtful displays of the original manga pages.
The exhibit stated with the 3D display of a fictitious "Volume 0" cover, among all the other 23 manga covers. There were English translations for a lot of the section headings, but I can't remember them so I'll throw in simple translations here. The first section was about Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Kanao, and Genya, highlighting some of their introductory, iconic, and character growth moments. This section's focus was "Bonds: Brother & Sister, And Their Friends." While in general they were going for drama in the large wall displays, along the bottom there was a smaller border composed of a collection of derpy faces. I appreciated that greatly. At the end of this section, there was a small section for other people who support them, like at Mt. Sagiri and in the Swordsmith Village. There was also a small 3D statue of the image in which the Kamaboko members are all chibis stacked on top of each other. Better that image than any of them biting each other's heads.
Section Two had my favorite layout and design: "Demons: The Extremes of Humanity, The Extremes of Sorrow." This had our first 3D display as part of the wall decor, and in my humble opinion, it was the best. Truly gruesome detail in the Muzan flesh crawling up out of the wall and across the ceiling. What really got me was how this room had four pillars (no pun intended) with two different sides dedicated to some of the Upper Moons, with one side showing them at their worst as demons and the other side showing their sorrows as humans and their death scenes. Very nice touch. That led into the Infinity Fortress display, with the twangs of Nakime's biwa playing as she flashes in the displays. There's also a short display dedicated to Muzan and Kagaya's conflicting worldviews.
Section Three: "Pillars: The Absoluteness of Breath" also had fun 3D displays for each of the Pillars; my favorites were Mitsuri's and Sanemi's, because seeing the full length of Mitsuri's twisty sword was fun and I liked all the details of the wall getting torn to bits by the Wind Breath effects. These sections were also my favorites in the Pillar section for two kind of dumb reasons. In observing the original manga pages close up, I really liked the panel from Chapter 123 in which Mitsuri has just woken up and is declaring how precious the Demon Slayer Corp is to her and how she won't let any of them die as she strikes a pose with her sword in the air. Based on the leftover draft pencil marks, it seems this was one was the many places where cute characters were original drawn with longer limbs and had them shortened, but what I found more endearing than that? I really, really can't be sure about this, but it kiiiiinda looks like Genya was added in after the rest of the panel was drawn. His face was already funny, but now I find it even funnier. As for a nice memory in the Sanemi section, this was where I happened to enter at the same time as two ladies in "Shinazugawa Sanemi" and "Tomioka Giyuu" baseball shirts who whispered to each other, "IT'S HERE." This stuck out because talking was not allowed at the gallery, and when I turned my head, I saw that the lady in the Sanemi jersey had a big beetle toy pinned to her shoulder. Excellent touch, lady.
Section Four: "Ties: Betting It All" was just... rubbing in all the pain. Reminding us of all the loses. You know the cover of Chapter 180? Seeing that life size hurt, yo. Also, the amount of white-out used on the Seventh Form of Thunder Breath? Respect.
Section Five: "Time: The Breaking Dawn of A Thousand Years" was dedicated to the Sunrise Countdown arc and I was hyyyyyyped. It might just had been my impression, the draft pencil used seemed so much more heavy-handed through these pages. I tend to be quite heavy-handed with my sketches as well, so I felt this area strongly, but I also felt humbled for ever having spent over a decade of my life dreaming of being a manga-ka. I have too much respect and awe for this craft to ever find myself so foolish ever again. Also, there is now one particular variety of screen tone that now triggers me to get emotional after seeing the patterns of its use.
Quick interjection here to say that HOLY FUDGE, LOOK AT HOW ALL THE TATAMI ARE HAND-DRAWN. I thought those were screentones, but nooooooo, it's the black lines first and then whiteout on top of them, so they all fit the necessary angles exactly. AAAAAAAAAAAH.
Final Section: "Succession: Exceeding All The Months and Years" was dedicated to Tanjiro's internal battle with Muzan. Yeah, there was a 3D wisteria display. How could they not.
Omake: Obamitsu and Flame&Sound duo images like have already been leaked a lot, and The Legend of Zenitsu stuff, Chapter 205 stuff, and then I had to return to real life.

WOO probably the biggest piece I did for Art Fight this year!! I drew Wren Carlow for capricroker 🐙🖋🌟 I had so much fun with the comic book style for this piece. The colors were a lot of fun too. 
My Art Fight is CrescentFall 🌱🌺🌈 I drew this for Team Bloom
(Image description under cut. It is quite a doozy)
[ID: Drawing with a composition similar to a comic book or manga. There is the centerpiece shaded fullbody drawing, showing off Wren’s octoling “human” form and their octopus form separately. Octoling Wren looks as if they are walking with a pep in their step, holding their left hand on their hips. They have their right hand’s finger resting on their cheek, and they are winking at the audience. Their tongue is sticking out, and they have a playful expression. Octopus form Wren is a light green color with purple tentacles, and is propping up their glasses. 
There are comic panels surrounding these fullbodies in the background. The middle left one has a starry purple background, with the onomatopoeia “Woomy!” written out, bolded in a light blue. 
The top left panel shows a closeup on Wren’s shoes, with them tapping their toes to the ground with “Step!” written out. 
The top right panel shows Wren munching on a Wavy Waffle Roll, catching the chocolate sauce dripping with their left hand. Their octopus form is looking at the waffle roll with starry eyes. “CHOMP!” is written out stylistically with some hearts. 
The upper middle right side panel shows a halfbody shot of Wren with her elbows poking out of the panel, as if they were resting on the border of it. She has a mischievous and playful expression, and is resting her chin on the back of her hands. There is a speech bubble next to them going “Hehe~”
The lower middle right panel is a side profile close up of Wren’s eye, looking at the audience. You can see stars and colors reflected in their eyes. You cannot see their mouth, but their eye is crinkled to show that they are smiling.
The bottom right panel is a halfbody of Wren from behind, with them holding their Flingza Roller weapon behind their back. They have one side propped up on their shoulder. The Flingza Roller uses light green ink as it fades into purple, and it is stylized like a fountain pen. “Flingza!” is written out in stylistic letters, and there are ink splatters coming out of the panel. End ID.]

Nothing For Me
Part 7
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Main Masterlist
Part 6|Part 8
     You and MJ’s relationship continued to grow as time went on. 
     As she started her first year of high school, you worked on yourself, wanting to be good for her.
     Overtime, you learned how to process and deal with things better. You focused on yourself and your developing relationship with MJ and needless to say, things started to look up. 
     The ‘present but not really present father’ thing didn’t affect you as much as it did, but it was still there. It was one of the only things you hadn’t fully processed and to be honest, you didn’t think you ever could. 
     Your father is there, and has been aware of presence for almost a decade. And not once has he given you any type of consolation or love like a father should. You would think after Pepper was getting more involved in his life and forcing him to clean up (most of) his act, he would open his eyes and realize that a whole human being was living with him, waiting for him to realize that they were supposed to be relying on him; not an AI built in the comfort of their room. 
     But nope. Absolutely nothing changed. If anything, things got worse. 
     He was away more often, focusing on the Avengers. Or he was with Pepper, the new love of his life. 
     You tried not to linger on the situation often, knowing it would only lead to pain in your chest. So you just stuffed it in the back of your mind, hoping one day that the pain would just lessen all together. 
     About two months ago, you and MJ had decided to make things official after going on your first date. At first you talked about how fast the two of you were going, but Michelle simply said ‘we’ll be u-haul lesbians then.’ That was the end of the conversation. 
     Currently, you and your girlfriend were facetiming. You would’ve made the trek to her house but she was about to study and you both knew that you’d distract her. Plus the two of you were due for some time away from each other considering the fact that you’re at her place almost everyday. 
     “Okay, so I found this recipe the other day and I’m just now remembering it.”
     MJ looks at you confused, “Okay?” 
     You roll your eyes playfully.
     “I wanted to try it with you. After my ban from your place has been lifted.” 
     “It’s not a ban,” she chuckled.
     “Well, it sure as hell feels like one ba-”     “Mr. Stark has arrived with a guest,” M.I.A cut you off. 
     “Who is this guest?” 
     “Secretary of State, Thaddues Ross,” the AI replied, pulling up pictures of the man. 
     “Hey M, I’m gonna call you back.”
     “Yeah, yeah,” she nods, looking a little concerned. “Take all the time you need. Let me know if everything’s okay.”
     The two of you give your goodbyes and you ask M.I.A to pull up the live footage from the conference room.
     “Perspective. The world owes the Avengers an un-payable debt. You have fought for us, protected us, risked your lives… but while a great a=many people see you as heroes, there are some who would prefer the word “vigilantes”, is what you first hear when you start watching. 
     Immediately your eyebrows furrowed in confusion. 
     “And what word would you use, Mr. Secretary?” Natasha asks.
     “How about ‘dangerous’?” he replies. “What would you call a group of US-based, enhanced individuals who routinely ignore sovereign borders and inflict their will wherever they choose and who, frankly, seem unconcerned about what they leave behind?”
     The secretary activates a screen behind him which begins to play the previous battles the Avengers and SHIELD have fought in. 
     “New York.” 
     He clicks a button, footage of chitauri, shooting guns, and Hulk smashing plays. 
     “Washington D.C”
     A new video appears, showing the insight helicarriers firing at each other with chaos following. 
     “Sokovia.” 
     The frame changes, showcasing the terrified citizens that were on the flying piece of land. 
     “Lagos.” 
     “That’s enough,” Steve interrupts. 
     Ross nods in response and begins his speech again. 
     “For the past four years, you’ve operated with unlimited power and no supervision. That’s an arrangement the governments of the world can no longer tolerate. But I think we have a solution.”
     He places a thick document on the table and slides it across to Wanda. As the team slides the book to each other Ross starts talking. 
     “The Sokovia Accords. Approved by 117 countries… it states that the Avengers shall no longer be a private organization. Instead, they’ll operate under the supervision of a United Nations panel, only when and if that panel deems it necessary.” 
     “The Avengers were formed to make the world a safer place,” the Captain begins. “I feel we’ve done that.”
     “Tell me, Captain, do you know where Thor and Banner are right now?” There was a momentary pause as the two men’s eyes met. “If I misplaced a couple of 30 megaton nukes… you can bet there’d be consequences. Compromise. Reassurance. That’s how the world works. Believe me, this is middle ground.”
     At this point, you’re walking out of your room after transfering the feed to your tablet and making your way to the elevator.
     “So, these are contingencies,” Rhodey states. 
     “Three days from now,” Secretary Ross begins. “The UN meets in Vienna to ratify the Accords. Talk it over.” 
     Natasha speaks up, “And if we don’t come to a decision you don’t like?”
     “Then you retire.” 
     The elevator stops and you look up seeing the Secretary walk in with someone behind him. You give him a subtle disgusted look before turning your attention back to the security footage.
     As the deathtrap descends, you can feel his eyes lingering on you. 
     “Can I help you?” 
     “You’re a little young to be an intern.” 
     “You’re a little old to be looking at me like that,” you shrug, swiping away from the video on your tablet as you feel him looking over your shoulder. 
     Ross gives an awkward chuckle and furrows his eyebrows. When you reach the bottom floor, he gets ready to step out and places a hand on your shoulder. 
     You look at him like he’s lost his mind. 
     “You seem like a good kid. Be sure to make good choices.” 
     Raising an eyebrow, you refrain from saying what you want to say. You lift your hand and gently take his off of you. 
     “Don’t touch me,” 
     Once he exits, you hear the chatting start back up.
     “Secretary Ross has a Congressional Medal of Honor,” Rhodes told Sam. “Which is one more than you have. 
     “So let’s say we agree to this thing,” Wilson starts. “How long is it gonna be before they LoJack us like a bunch of common criminals?”
     “117 countries want to sign this. 117, Sam, and you’re just like, ‘No that’s cool. We got it.” 
     “I have an equation,” Vision announces as you get back on the elevator. 
     “Oh this will clear it up,” Sam mutters. 
     “In the eight years since Mr. Stark announced himself as Iron Man, the number of known enhanced persons has grown exponentially. And during the same period, the number of potentially world-ending events has risen at a commensurate rate.“
     “Toaster oven’s got a point there,” you mumble, stepping back on the metal deathtrap. 
     Steve asks,“Are you saying it’s our fault?”
     “I’m saying there may be a causality. Our very strength invites challenge. Challenge incites conflict. And conflict… breeds catastrophe. Oversight… oversight is not an idea that can be dismissed out of hand.” 
     “Boom,” Rhodey says.                             
     You see Tony lying on the couch, quite relaxed, contradicting the tense atmosphere. 
     “Tony,” Nat starts. “You are being uncharacteristically non-hyper-verbal.”
     “It’s because he’s already made up his mind,” Steve explained. 
     “Boy, you know me so well,” Stark starts, getting up and rubbing the back of his head. “Actually I’m nursing an electromagnetic headache,” he pauses to grab a mug of coffee. “That’s what’s going on, Cap. It’s just pain. It’s discomfort. Who’s putting coffee grounds in the disposal? Am I running a bed and breakfast for a biker gang?”
     Tony puts his phone in a basket and taps the screen. An image is projected of a smiling young man. 
     “Oh, that’s Charles Spencer, by the way. He’s a great kid. Computer engineering degree, 3.6 GPA. Had a floor level gig at Intel planned for the fall. But first, he wanted to put a few miles on his soul, before he parked it behind a desk. See the world. Maybe be of service. Charlie didn’t want to go to Vegas or Fort Lauderdale, which is what I would do. He didn’t go to Paris or Amsterdam, which sounds fun. He decided to spend his summer building sustainable housing for the poor. Guess where, Sokovia.”
     He pauses for a second as the team soaks in the information.
     “He wanted to make a difference, I suppose. I mean, we won’t know because we dropped a building on him while we were kicking ass.
     “There’s no decision-making process here. We need to be put in check! Whatever form that takes, I’m game. If we can’t accept limitations, if we’re boundary-less, we’re no better than the bad guys.”
     “Tony, someone dies on your watch, you don’t give up,” Steve rebuttals.
     “Who said we’re giving up?” 
     “We are if we’re not taking responsibility for our actions. This document just shifts the blame.”
     “I’m sorry. Steve,” Rhodey blurted. “That-that is dangerously arrogant. This is the United Nations we’re talking about. It’s not the World Security Council, it’s not SHIELD, it’s not HYDRA.”
      “No, but it’s run by people with agendas, and agendas change.”   
      “That’s good,” Tony starts. “That’s why I’m here. When I realized what my weapons were capable of in the wrong hands, I shut it down and stopped manufacturing.  
     “Tony, you chose to do that. If we sign this, we surrender our right to choose. What if this panel sends us somewhere we don’t think we should go? What if there is somewhere we need to go, and they don’t let us? We may not be perfect, but the safest hands are still our own.”
     “If we don’t do this now, it’s gonna be done to us later. That’s a fact. That won’t be pretty.”
     Wanda finally speaks up, “You’re saying they’ll come for me.”
     “We would protect you,” Vision promised. 
     “Maybe Tony’s right,” the redhead speaks. “If we have one hand on the wheel, we can still steer. If we take it off--”
     “Aren’t you the same woman who told the government to kiss her ass a few years ago?” Sam interrupts. 
     “I’m just… I’m reading the terrain. We have made… some very public mistakes. We need to win their trust back. 
     “Focus up,” Tony says. “I’m sorry, did I just mishear or did you agree with me?”
     “Oh, I want to take it back now.”
     “No, no, no. You can’t retract it. Thank you. Unprecedented. Okay, case-closed--I win.” 
     From what you see, Steve stands to leave abruptly. 
     You then walk out of the elevator, tablet still in hand with the footage up. The captain walks past you just as you turn the corner and spot the team. 
     “Someone’s upset,” you hum. 
     You walk past everyone towards the fridge and grab a water bottle. 
     “Anyway, that was very childish. And kinda stupid.” 
     Inquisitive looks are thrown your way and you hold up the tablet awkwardly as you plop down on a chair. 
     “I was watching you. I kinda do that a lot. It’s not as creepy as it sounds.” 
     You open the bottle and take a sip. 
     “What are you doing down here kid--”
     “Ahhh,” you interrupt. “Don’t call me a kid. I haven’t been a child for years.”
     “Just answer the question,” Tony snaps. 
     “I like to stay informed. No one tells me anything and while you think that these private meetings only affect you, it doesn’t. It affects me too. You may not remember I’m your child but several people do. And that puts me in danger. So yes, I listen to your conversations to make sure it’s nothing I need to worry about.” 
     An awkward silence washes over as you gulp down more water. 
     “Anyway, I was just riding up and down the elevator waiting for you guys to finish. That Ross dude is kinda creepy by the way. But you’re really considering signing that thing?” 
     “Not you too,” your father mutters. 
      You let out a laugh and everyone looks at you strangely. 
      “Is this funny to you?” Rhodey asks. 
      “Yes,” you stop laughing abruptly. “I find it hilarious that this is the same government that was ready to drop a nuke on the city during the Battle of New York not giving a damn about a single civilian that was still in the area. I find it hilarious that this is the same government that lets thousands of children and women of color go missing and not do a thing about it. It’s funny that this is the same government that let HYDRA, Red Room, AIM; all that shit grow right under their nose. It’s funny because this government is the same one that uses taxpayer money for dumb ass projects and unnecessary military funding instead of using it to fund shit that helps the civilians they claim they care so much about. I mean how can you not find this situation amusing?”
     “Look,” Tony attempts. 
     “I’m not finished,” you challenge, looking him dead in the eyes. “This government don’t give a damn about y’all, especially not the three of us,” you say, gesturing to yourself, Sam, and Rhodey. “We’d be booted out of this country before you could even blink if they ever got the chance and you know that.
     “I don’t know why y’all are so adamant on gaining the government’s trust when they don’t give a flying fuck about you or these goddamn civilians. All they care about is power. They don’t care how many civilians come up missing or die in some tragic accident. It doesn’t matter what happens. When they see someone becoming richer or smarter or more powerful than they are, they will do anything to shut that shit down. 
     “I don’t understand how you can’t see that. And maybe it’s just me. Maybe it’s just me and my experience,” you pause, catching the gaze of every person in the room with hard eyes. You take a deep breath and try to calm down. “Sign it if you want to. Think about how many lives you’ll lose then.”
     You stand from your spot and walk into the open elevator, ready to get to the comfort of your bed. 
-
     It had been two days since the initial meeting and you were currently sitting on Michelle’s bed watching her read. 
     “You’re really pretty,” you muttered out of the blue.
     You saw your girlfriend’s cheeks develop a subtle red tint as she mumbled back a ‘thank you, and continued reading. You groan and gently pull the book out of her hands. 
     “Hey,” she quietly protests. 
     “Please,” you pout, holding your arms out as an invitation.
     MJ fondly rolls her eyes before lowering herself onto you. You hummed contently and squeezed her before planting a kiss on her cheek. 
     She surprised you by turning her head and giving you a lingering kiss. That one kiss soon turned into something more. 
     Michelle gently pushed you onto your back and straddled your hips. Bending down she kissed you once again, her lips gliding with yours. 
     This continued for a few minutes, taking small breaks in between to breathe. You don’t think you could ever get enough of her and hoped that she was feeling similarly.
     You kissed until your jaws hurt. The euphoric feeling still lingered as MJ rested her forehead against yours, trying to catch her breath. 
     “We should do that again sometime,” you mumbled. 
     Your girlfriend nodded in response, giving one more chaste kiss to your lips before dropping to your side. 
     “Tomorrow,” she said after glancing at the clock that read 10:47. 
     “Guess I’m spending the night then.” 
     “I have no problem with that.”
-
     The next day, you were awoken by beeping from your phone. Once you were fully aware of your surroundings you picked up the device and read the notifications that M.I.A sent through. Scanning through them, you sat up with urgency and played the video. 
     “A bomb hidden in a news van ripped through the UN building in Vienna. More than 70 people have been injured. At least 12 are dead, including Wakanda’s King T’Chaka. Officials have released a video of a suspect who they have identified as James Buchanan Bares, the Winter Soldier. The infamous HYDRA agent, linked to numerous acts of terrorism and political assassinations.”
     Carefully removing Michelle’s arm from around your waist, you stand up and move to the corner of the room. You press the contact and hold the phone up to your ear. 
      “Nat what the fuck is going on?”
     You hear the woman sigh on the other side of the phone.     “Look, just… stay wherever you are.”
     “Yeah, okay, whatever. I want answers, Nat.”
     “(Y/n),” she says firmly. “Calm down and go back to whatever you were doing. Right now, this does not concern you and I would like it to stay that way. Do you understand me?”
     There was some silence, before you let out a forced chuckle. 
     “Okay, whatever. Bye.”
     “(Y/n) c’mo--”
     You disconnected the call and gently tossed the phone onto MJ’s desk.     “You sound stressed.” 
     Turning around to face the bed, you see Michelle sat up and leaning against the headboard. You nod slowly and crawl your way up towards her. 
     “I am.”
     You feel her hand take hold of your clenched ones and she rubs them, causing you to relax slightly. 
     “There was a um, bombing at the--the um… signing thing. And no one wants to tell me what’s going on, so,” you end the sentence, shrugging. 
     MJ’s head drops onto your shoulder and you let her cuddle close. 
     “They told me to stay where I was. So hopefully we can get something good out of that.” 
     There was no response and you thought she had fallen back asleep, but you were proven wrong when your girlfriend started getting up. 
     “C’mon,” she instructed, holding her hand out when she saw the look of confusion on your face. 
     Taking her hand, the two of you made your way to the kitchen. 
     She turned around and grabbed your shoulders. 
     “We are going to make some breakfast… or lunch whatever. And then we are going to binge watch until we can binge watch no longer. Alright?”
     You nod your head, chuckling and then got to work. 
-
     It had been days since you last heard from anyone. No updates from Natasha. M.I.A even told you there hasn’t even been a great deal of movement in the compound. Today you decided you would head back. 
     When you arrived it was quiet. As you walked down the halls you heard distant chatter and followed it. 
     Turning the corner, you were surprised at what you saw. 
     “What the hell happened?”
     The two men turned to look your way, but you were given no answers. 
     Tony had bruises on his face and he looked more tense than usual. Rhodey had some sort of tech on his legs. 
     “You fought them. You fought them all, didn’t you?” 
     Both men looked away and avoided your gaze. 
     “You didn’t even listen to what I said. This is what the government does. I tried to tell you, but you didn’t even fucking listen,” you ranted, your voice slightly raising.
     “Us breaking apart wasn’t the government. Most of this is on some guy th--”
     “Well the government allowed it to happen so I’d say it is their fault!” 
     You turned to your father with pleading eyes. 
     “Where are they, Tony?”
     “Kid, they’re criminals now, I don’t--”
     “Stop calling me that! I’m--I’m not some kid. I’m not your kid,” you let out a frustrated breath. “You--you couldn’t talk it out? Like mature adults? You just had to go assert your dominance somewhere--in what? An--an airport? Some vacant lot? You just had to fight. Do you not know how to communicate?” 
     You looked at the two men, shook your head, and brushed past them. 
     Just when things were alright.
-
     “(Y/n)?” 
     “What M.I.A?”
     You were currently laying in your bed trying to control the tears that were begging to fall from your eyes due to the amount of overwhelming shit you had been hit with. You talked with MJ for a little while and while it helped a bit, you honestly were still feeling like… well shit.
     “There’s a package for you.” 
     Furrowing your eyebrows, you head down to where the mail is usually placed, get the package with your name on it, and head back to your room. 
     Grabbing a pair of scissors, you cut the tape and open the box. Inside was a letter and a phone. 
     Hey sweetheart.
     It was Natasha’s handwriting.
     I’m sorry. I really am. We all are. I wish things wouldn’t have ended this way, but they did and we can’t really do anything about it now. 
     I listened to what you said. I listened and I tried my best to understand. I don’t think I ever wanted to sign the accords in the first place. The only reason I did so was so that we could stay together. So that I could stay with you. This team is the only family I’ve had in a long time. The fact that that stack of papers could end that scared me. 
     I just kept trying to convince myself that signing the Accords was the right thing to do; anything to keep this team together. Anything to keep everything from falling apart. 
     But the more I thought about it, I realized. You were right. Everything you said. This government doesn’t care. And if the government doesn’t care like they’re supposed to then we need to. People need the government, but they don’t have it. They do have us though. And they always will. 
     I love you. I didn’t say it enough and I don’t know when or if I’ll ever get to tell you that again. You are so precious to me and I’m sorry I couldn’t stay. If you ever need anything, you can always give me a call. 
     You wiped your eyes and gently picked up the phone. You held it in your hands for a moment before setting it down. You folded the letter back up neatly and placed both items in the top drawer of your nightstand. 
     You laid back down on your bed with less tears on your face.

ID: [A murky purple haze, floating in shades of violet and eggplant, hedges the borders of the image and partially obscures the subject.
Behind the mists are two comic panels - top and bottom; the top panel has been diagonally bisected. In the first half, a vague scene depicting a solid wall and a portion on blue sky above it. The second is a close face-shot of a young person with short, shaggy black hair that hangs about their face, and heavy eye-bags. Three lines are drawn horizontal next to their head, as if they are startled, and a white text box is just barely visible, with fuzzy words reading "Hey.... -kun!"
The last - and largest - panel is of the same young person, depicting the smiling lower half of their face and upper torso. They are wearing the traditional light grey UA uniform jacket, a white collared button-down, and a red tie. A brown hand rests on their right shoulder, forearm leading out of frame. There is a black strap over the other shoulder.]

jib 7 breakdown and analysis 
a little while ago i said that i am open to requests for making analysis posts when it comes to cockles panels and just cockles in general, and i got quite a few responses. the first person who asked me was my lovely tea anon, and the panel in question is jib 2016 aka jib 7. 
first of all i want to give you my take on the overall vibe, and then second of all i will get into the details and link to certain timestamps in the video. 
standard disclaimer: i am not gonna be linking to every single thing i talk about, but i will try my best to link to the moments that stand out to me the most. my recommendation would be to watch the panel in its entirety alongside my comments. i have read long posts about this panel before, so not everything in this post is gonna be original or said for the first time ever, simply because there is a good chance that information has stuck in my mind and has subconsciously formed my view of this panel. this is also in no way, shape or form gonna be coherent, unfortunately. i’m just gonna hope that the cockles hivemind will be able to make sense of this regardless. love and light. and lastly, this is all in good fun, so don’t come at me if you think this is too out there please and thank you.
the overall vibe that this panel gives me is that jensen and misha are a unity at this point. they are in sync with each other, and this whole panel is very relaxed and in good spirits. there is also the fact that their outfits match very well. and with jensen ross ackles involved, that cannot be a coincidence, so i love that a lot. 
another thing that i cannot ignore is that it’s also a very sexual panel, with a lot of double meanings and innuendos and remarks that can be read as sexual if you are as pervy as me. 
now let’s get into the specifics. 
although i am sure this is not going to be news for any of you, i feel like a little background knowledge is in order. before this panel, misha had had a panel that day with j*red. the mishalecki panel was really fucking funny and filled with sexual innuendos. 
between these two panels, it appears that there was a break in which they all had nothing to do (i am basing this off other people’s experiences and reports that i have read in the past, as i unfortunately wasn’t there myself).
considering how this panel goes, i think there is a good chance that jensen and misha just had sex beforehand. and based on both of their demeanors, one could draw certain conclusions about who did what (i honestly don’t like talking about who tops and who bottoms because who gives a shit and things are rarely that black and white, but all i’m gonna say is that even though jensen has joked about his asshole before, jensen and misha clearly said switch rights).
from the very first second. the VERY FIRST SECOND. jensen is sauntering on stage like he is thee man. then the crowd is cheering ‘one more time’, and jensen looks at misha, starts cheering too, and makes a movement that is bordering on obscene before waving it away. conclusion: ‘one more time’ could also mean ‘one more round of hot steaming sex’ and he still had sex on the brains, so that was what he was thinking about. 
ahhh, the intricate ritual [1m34s] of greeting each other on stage as if you haven’t spoken to each other all day, even though you probably just had sex….. jensen ackles, i wanna study you. i wonder what the deal is with that. does he just like to pay misha extra attention on stage? does he revel in the fact that he knows that fans like this sort of interaction? can he just not help himself? questions that keep me up at night. 
also, there is just SOMETHING about the way jensen says ‘i’m doing well how are you?’ it’s almost flustered? borderline shy? and then he goes on to say that he did an impression of misha earlier, in a manner that’s just so flirty. idk guys. it’s flirty. kindergarten flirty, but flirty nonetheless.
misha, of course, immediately turns his entire body towards him. almost as if they both already forgot there is an audience in front of them. then he just gets closer and closer to jensen, for no reason whatsoever except for the pure magnetic pull they have on each other. pray4misha.
i think it is a testament to how in sync they are that misha immediately realises that jensen mentioned bicycle touring during his ‘impression of misha’, and i love the moment where jensen puts on an accent (something that misha normally does) and goes ‘is like sport’ and misha laughs and goes ‘is very similar to sport’ and they both lose it. idk, i feel like that might be a sort of inside joke to them as well. 
this might be slightly reaching, but hear me out: right away, jensen goes: ‘oh by the way, sore?’ why would he say ‘by the way’? what is he thinking about when he says that? is it about ‘is very similar to sport’? because i could totally see them having sex and refering to it as ‘well that’s kind of like a sport’, as an inside joke. it works. i’m just saying!!! 
look. i know this back and forth has been discussed to death. we all know that the implication is that jensen fucked misha and misha is kind of stunned that jensen actually goes there. so stunned that he repeats it: ‘sore? am i sore?’ almost as if to stall a bit in his response. yikes. 
i think that it’s fair to say that this is something jensen enjoys doing: riling misha up on stage. because a lot of the time, misha has the upper hand on stage (probably also in the bedroom but that’s another conversation), but sometimes. sometimes jensen just can’t help but throw a lil oil onto the fire. (see also: underbear panel, throwing himself on stage to get straddled, etc). 
misha goes on to say that ‘after the panel with j*red’ he is quite sore. you can take that at face value, and think ‘oh so he is joking around that the panel with j*red made him sore haha’ or you can see a little bit of the truth shine through: literally after that panel, something happened that made him sore. it’s always easier to lie when you are bending the truth.
i actually can’t believe i never connected the dots before, but when misha deflects and says ‘oh you’re talking about the bike riding’ jensen is quick to say: ‘oh no i was talking about what just happened’ but instead of pointing at the stage (which is where the previous panel took place) he is gesturing to backstage. i mean…. way to feed into my ‘they just had sex backstage’ theory, jackles. thanks for that. 
i cannot get over the way jensen is looking at misha throughout this whole ordeal, but especially when he goes ‘you heard it here first, folks’ and misha walks up to him. THAT FACE. fuck him. he’s so gone. 
sidenote: i have never wished to be able to read lips as much as i have since i have stumbled upon these two morons, because i WISH i could see what misha is mouthing to jensen. i know there is some spec that he might have said ‘i am a little bit’ (aka he is a little bit sore) and i could see that, but i just want to know for sure. and even though i have seen people state that jensen would have already known about the panel with j*red, i think it’s possible misha hadn’t filled jensen in yet, seeing as they probably were doing something other than talking. 
let me take this moment to tell y’all about one of my jenmish theories, and that is: i think that jensen sometimes is overprotective of misha and that can come across as jealousy when it’s actually just worry. and i think this panel is a good example of that.
misha says [4m25s] that in italy they call come influence and jensen just. straight up looks at misha like ‘what the fuck did you do, what mess did you get yourself into this time?’ this is another reason why i believe he actually didn’t know about what happened during that panel yet: the reaction looks very authentic. you see his eyes shift from one side to the other and back again, as he is trying to process it. and honestly when you look at misha, his face goes through this journey of ‘this is funny’ to ‘shit is this maybe going a bit too far?’ and ending on ‘okay wrap it up wrap it up’. this is further solidified by the fact that jensen starts to mime digging a grave (aka ‘digging your own grave’).
misha tries to ‘change the subject’ by saying cas is the bottom in the implied relationship with sam and jensen immediately brings it back to sports. see what i meant when i said that they are tying sex and sports together? here jackles goes again, doing exactly that. for no reason whatsoever. (except to once again proof my point). 
WHY [5m50s] do they both burst out laughing at ‘tight end’ why why why i don’t wanna know but why why also quick reminder of ‘are you sore at all’ help i am just. EVERY DAY they are making me perceive things and connect dots and i do not like it. anyways i’m not saying that this is all very graphic stuff about their sex lives but i’m also not not saying it, you feel? jensen’s face says it all tbh. on a more wholesome note: i love the fact that they basically wanted to say ‘we should take questions’ at the same time. again: in sync. 
when the first person to ask a question said ‘this is a serious question’ misha goes to explain to jensen that that was a joke during his panel with j*red, another reason to believe that he hadn’t told jensen about the panel yet. jensen’s face there…. heart eyes motherfucker. 
i really don’t see enough people talk about the ‘safe word’ [6m38s] bit. jensen is the one to bring it up ‘so we should probably establish a safe word at this point. mine is keep going.’ misha laughs, and then realises what jensen has said, and (here comes my dom/sub truthing) teases jensen by saying ‘what is your safe word?’ to which jensen replies ‘keep going’ but LOOK at jensen’s face after he says that. he shakes his head with a little smirk and looks at misha with such a knowing look in his eyes that says ‘you fucker you know damn well what my safe word is’ and he actually does a double take and immediately rolls his eyes at himself after that. it’s all very quick but it’s far from subtle and i am here for it. 
i fucking love this next part because when the person says ‘a real story about the real jensen and the real misha’ they both are just like ‘yes okay’ but as soon as they say ‘that you have never told anyone before’ jensen just looks down and moves his head as if to say ‘what the hell am i supposed to come up with then’ lmao it’s really funny, and they end it with: ‘to know you a little bit better’ and guys (gn) i beg of you to look at the way they look at each other here. [7m24s] jensen is just like ‘help wtf should we say to this’ and misha just smiles down at him fondly like ‘sigh our fans really want us to talk about our relationship and as much as we would love to share stuff we just can’t’.
when misha says ‘we have to dust off some of those stories that we usually try not to tell other people’, something comes to mind: the ‘3 least ordered items on the menu’ story, that jensen shared a year after this at honcon. i honestly think that maybe they started to talk about what else they could share with the public, after this panel, because they get similar questions like this one all the time. either that or jensen just thought about what he felt comfortable sharing, without talking to misha about it, and decided to tell that story. 
i also absolutely love when they say ‘this is a serious question’ at the same time. AGAIN: IN SYNC!!!
‘i actually have a voice for you’ jensen can you please tell me why this sounds flirty and charming while you are actually about to make fun of your husband? i hate you (no i don’t) the fact that misha immediately knows what will happen, says a lot.
then jensen says: ‘dust off an old story for uhh..’ and burst out laughing. i swear to god i’d give my left pinkie to know what came to mind and what he whispered into misha’s ear. and i’m left handed. but i think we can all agree that whatever jensen said, it was something sexual, seeing as misha goes ‘nope’. those fuckers (affectionate).
something that i have mentioned in the past is that jensen always sort of ‘jokey’ goes ‘oh shit’ whenever misha says he’ll share something personal/private about them. i mean. jensen, it would be less sus if you didn’t respond. just giving you some pointers here, bro. because misha almost never shares something strange, it’s actually your reaction that makes me go ‘hmmmm.’ this time he even gets kind of elaborate breathing?? [10m27s]
oh to be a fly in clif’s car… honestly, the things clif must have heard and witnessed lmao. he clearly knows what is up between them (has made enough remarks about thinking that misha would be the bottom and that misha on his knees was nothing new for me to see that he absolutely knows.) 
this isn’t really important when it comes to cockles but they talk a bit about j*red’s internet dispute with at&t and jensen goes ‘oh they know’ gesturing to the audience. so clearly, jensen is well aware of the fact that fandom gets involved whenever something happens online with any one of them. just. thought that is an interesting fact. just in general. also love how i can tell that they both think j*reds crusades are bullshit (as they should). 
there is something really cute [14m13s] about the way misha goes ‘do you want your apple juice?’ and jensen goes ‘yeah!’ it sounds so domestic and mundane and i just. god i love them so much. 
i know we talk about jensen’s heart eyes a lot. but y’all. look [14m52s] at misha right here. he’s SO in love.
the thing that strikes me about jensen putting on ‘that voice’ for misha is that misha is honestly not bothered by it at all, but i think if the shoe was on the other foot, jensen would definitely be bothered. i don’t know what conclusion to draw from that but i just thought that is interesting. i always laugh at that bit, though, they seem to have so much fun.
i REALLY wanna know how jensen got from ‘will you dance for us?’ to ‘no but i’ll tell you what, misha and i will write a song for you real quickly.’ it’s such a fast transition that i am tempted to think that this was something he had been thinking about for a while now. he just wanted his mish to sing a song. and that warms my heart.
if you think i will ever get over how soft jensen is here… ‘you’re smart, you think on your feet, you make brilliant videos, put them on facebook, write amazing texts (*coughs* poems) and tweets and stuff, go ahead. spit out some lyrics, big guy.’ there is not one single thing about this that i do not adore. an ode to misha!!!! so casually!!! fuck. it might be true that if you want jensen to do something, you get misha to ask him, but it’s certainly also true the other way around.
the way jensen just. stares [19m02s] at misha, trying to get inspired by him, trying to feel out what cords to play. yeah. the way misha stands up but instinctively turns to jensen when he starts to sing. yeah. and then during the remainder of the song, he keeps on turning to jensen even though he faces the audience. and jensen loved it all. it’s so sweet. idk why but it just is. jensen just wanted his babe to thrive and get the love he deserves. 
aaaand in comes the dom shake [20m37s]. we love to see it. jensen just keeps on looking at mish. almost gets lost in it. touches his inner thigh (one of his habits, which he does a lot around misha or when talking about misha). 
i think it’s very interesting that jensen’s reaction [22m11s] to the question if he thinks dean will ever find a way to have a romantic relationship and to find himself in between normal and supernatural, is to immediately looks at misha. like? what was the reason? did he expect misha to answer a question that wasn’t about cas but about dean? did he think he should maybe answer it in a destiel-like manner? was he worried that the fan was hoping for a destiel-like answer and was he looking at misha to gauge what he thought was a smart way to respond? so many questions. 
i think it’s pretty interesting that jensen was very aware of the fact that people did not wanna see dean end up with a huntress lmao. he absolutely was aware of so many fandom things.
when jensen said that misha just crossed the line [23m40s], it’s another example of how jensen is ultra aware of what misha says and how it could get him into trouble and by the sounds of it, misha knows that as well but he just can’t always stop himself in time. from what we can see, he often realises just after he has already said something (when it is already too late).
listen. the fact that misha says ‘when harry met sally’ BEFORE the question was even finished, and jensen LAUGHS, like??? that panel was 5 years ago at that point. it clearly made a lot of impact on the both of them (jeez i wonder why, could it be because misha faked an orgasm and jensen got excited? hmm. who knows.) 
i think the dance portion is so fucking hilarious i’m wheeeezing. literally. they are just moving randomly AND YET THEY STILL SORT OF ARE IN SYNC? amazing.
you wanna know what i find really cute? the fact that jensen has such a soft spot for the resume off. part of me thinks it’s because they had a resume off in both 2012 and 2013. 
and jib 2012 took place during the famously rumored break up period. i wouldn’t be surprised if jib 2013 was that much more special to him because they finally got to make it right again. don’t look at me i’m getting emotional (on that note…… i might wanna write something about the break up period at some point. but idk. i mean. it’s a lot to delve into especially since i wasn’t in the fandom back then but. it compels me. we’ll see i guess.)
okay i know i keep saying this but they are SO in sync, as soon as they talk about photo ops and jensen goes ‘and to dab a little salt in the wound’ misha knows what he is gonna say, and they stand up together to demonstrate what happened. AND they both go ‘that’s not the punchline’ they are husbands. 
misha and jensen have both “twirled away laughing” in the EXACT same manner during this panel: misha when jensen starts to read the script, and jensen right here when misha says ‘what’s it like to be in a successful long running show’. they are mirrors. listen. listen. i know my mind is in the gutter a LOT of the time but like. uhm. there is this moment where they recall a woman saying in the photo op to ‘eat it’ (the string candy she gave to them) and misha says ‘and so we did’ and jensen looks at misha and it is SUCH an incriminating look i mean i don’t wanna be that person but 5 bucks he was thinking about eating misha out i am JUST SAYING. LITERALLY LOOK AT HIS FACE. [28m55s]
misha teases [7m02s] jensen by saying ‘what did you do? did you actually do it on purpose orrrr’ and i think it was to make jensen elaborate on it. which i think is a fucking good way to pull that off when it comes to jensen. cause jensen doesn’t like to brag, which misha knows, so by making that joke he is essentially trying to get jackles to tell the audience more about what he did, without him feeling like he is boasting about himself. and misha looks so pleased when jensen starts talking.
fuck i literally had to pause just now because. jensen says: ‘one of the characteristics of dean that i love to play is that he can bottle those fears up, stash them away, and just go. and uhm… sometimes i wish i could do that.’
this is actually making me a bit emotional because. he took his time saying this. it was a very deliberate move. he wasn’t sorry he said anything or regretted it. he wanted to get that out there. and i just. it makes so much sense if what we all think is actually true. he wishes he could just ignore all his fears and go for it. and it’s not hard to imagine what ‘it’ could be: coming out. whether that be just about his relationship with misha or being attracted to more than women in general, just in any way shape or form. it’s poignant. and misha turns away, but you can see him sigh a little bit. 
the whole bit about “apple juice” is just very cute and i enjoy it a lot. one thing i will say though is that i can kind of spot two tells of jensen: the way his face scrunches up when he is telling a lie that he thinks is clever, and the way he always leaves his chair to pour a drink when a question becomes difficult/hard/too funny to face head on. he has done both of those things time and time again, during panels with misha. just an observation. 
there is this little moment [10m13s] where misha tells the story about how he used to make apple cider with worms and dirt in it and in the end he goes ‘anyways. new england apple cider everyone. highly recommend.’ and jensen echoes that, ‘highly recommend. yeah.’ and of course that could just be a way to joke around and play along with misha but i’d like to think that he has visited misha and they had some apple cider together. just because i like the thought and i can, so. 
how CUTE is it that jensen remembers ‘i’ll just wait here then’, a line cas spoke 7 years prior to that panel, in a scene jensen wasn’t even in. i love it.
jensen slowly shaking his head when misha says ‘fuck’ and apologizing for it has SUCH major ‘excuse my husband’ energy. i love it.
‘i’ve got an idea’ [14m13s] ‘what? let’s do it’ misha imMEDIATELY regretted that lmaooo they are always so aware of double meanings and yet they cannot seem to help themselves. we love to see it. 
can you BELIEVE jensen ‘dance monkey dance’ ackles OFFERED to shamelessly promote a movie they have nothing to do with??? jensen, who hates the fact that they have to play some sort of show on stage, actually wanted to do that with misha??? i’m just- something something if you want jensen to do anything ask misha, but apparently also: if you want jensen to do something get misha involved and he’ll love it. 
and then he has the audacity to say ‘over to the wheel of love.’ i mean. i can’t.
(i don’t necessarily understand what is happening btw but that’s okay, because it leads to champagne. which is fun.)
okay so again apologies for my mind being in the gutter but jensen’s face [16m33s] when he says he is going to explain what [the champagne] tastes like……. hm. help. 
 honestly i just love the whole champagne bit because i love it whenever they get so playful on stage, and them “presenting” the bottle and going all ‘we know what we’re talking about’ ‘we’re kind of connaisseurs’ and the whole english accent bit. say it with me…. in sync. 
jensen popping a champagne bottle is something that can be so personal…. (i’m touch starved and going crazy, leave me alone)
i absolutely love the fact that jensen notices that misha is miming taking off his pants and misha immediately runs to him to explain and jensen just goes full on protective husband mode (YET AGAIN) ‘i turn my back for 2 minutes’ lmao it’s just such old married couple behavior. an old married couple that is horny and deranged, but still. 
i’ve seen the gifset of this moment [24m52s] many a times but i still think it’s so intimate. the way misha looks at jensen and walks backwards with him, for no fucking reason at all. sigh. misha’s hand clenches a little, and honestly i think he would have wanted to reach out to jensen in that moment. pat his arm or his back. and something happens a little while later that only proves my point even more…
that caress [60m5s] is probably one of the most intimate gestures i’ve seen between them. it’s so familiar. so natural. it says a lot.
and that’s the end of the panel. all in all i have to say that i enjoyed rewatching this panel with the analysis goggles on, because it’s really a very different experience and i picked up on a lot more than i did when i watched it just for fun. i think this is one of my favorite panels of theirs (at least until my next analysis lmao) because of the fact that they are so in sync with each other, which goes to show that their relationship was in such a good place (mind you i am only using past tense because i am describing a past panel, not because i think they’re not in a good place right now). this was a lot of fun folks, if you actually read all of this, god bles, you’re the best. see you next time!
