There is a line of boys waiting to be fed into the machine, and the machine is merciless.

They feed them into the machine one by one, and the machine is always hungry. It takes them and it swallows them. Sometimes whole; sometimes it chews on them slowly, cruelly; sometimes it pretends that it's not hungry and plays with them, lets them believe they will not be consumed.

The machine is a liar.

The machine is always, always starving.

It feeds off the blood and the sweat and the tears. It feeds off the weaknesses as much as it feeds off gasoline. It feeds off euphoria as much as it feeds off the concrete street underneath. It swallows flesh much like its tyres are swallowed up, torn apart by the asphalt, merciless and unyielding, racing towards the ultimate goal - the chequered flag.

It swallows accolades; golden trophies and fastest laps and the national anthems on tops of podiums. It tears into the soft underbelly and feasts on the fears and inadequacies and mistakes. It nibbles on the insecurities - should I take the apex do I brake do I let him pass do I fight - and makes open wounds of them, letting them fester in open air, leaving them to acquire dirt and dust and grime. It eats at them from the inside, and when they're finally ripe, it slaughters their dreams and demolishes their spirit and finally, finally breaks their flesh.

The machine is hungry; but there are always boys waiting to be fed into it.

Bright-eyed boys, fast boys, young boys with aspirations, with talent, with whispered promises of world beneath their tyres and grandeur on the top step. Hard-working boys, capable boys, boys who are ready and willing to bleed and cry and scream as they push the machine further, across continents and across track limits and across the tracks, pushing until the only thing that was left were the fumes and the tyre tracks on the grey concrete below. Boys that get swallowed whole; boys that turn into men who win and win and win, right up until the moment they lose; boys that never grow out of their fascination with speed and gas and glory, even when they grow old.

The machine eats them all; slowly, fast, indulgently, immediately, unhurriedly, gorging itself on the feast that awaits it. It consumes them all in the end, sooner or later; makes them addicts, makes them complacent, makes them feel like they're safe in it until that last moment, when the fear flavours the flesh and they realise that they cannot ever win in this game. That agains the machine, they will always lose.

It's not worried, the machine.

There will always be more boys.

In baseball, the "Shot Heard 'Round the World" was a walk-off home run hit by New York Giants outfielder and third baseman Bobby Thomson off Brooklyn Dodgers pitcher Ralph Branca at the Polo Grounds in New York City on October 3, 1951, to win the National League pennant. The game was seen by millions of viewers across America and heard on radio by millions more, including thousands of American servicemen stationed in Korea, listening on Armed Forces Radio. The dramatic victory to secure a pennant was intensified by the cross-town rivalry between the Giants and Dodgers and by a remarkable string of victories in the last weeks of the regular season by the Giants, who won 37 of their last 44 games to catch the first-place Dodgers and force a playoff series to decide the National League champion.

given that i've ran this blog for as many years now i think i should get much credit for this being what, only the third dick joke i've ever made here hdfkhkj

anyways. there's this point in the story where vash and wolfwood have to go their separate ways for a while, but neither of them are dealing with it particularly well

(image id below the cut since it's a longer one)

[image ID: a rough, doodley 5 panel digital comic of vash and meryl from trigun, but from my leaden skies au where they've both been lightly redesigned to fit into the setting of monster hunter. vash is a wyverian with long pointed ears, wearing a red coat with gold trim and buttons. meryl is a human wearing a beret as seen on other guild girls, but her all-white outfit is a practical two-piece blouse and shorts set. the whole comic is comprised of warm colors, orange and yellow and dark purple

panel 1: vash sitting in the foreground at a brown desk covered in candles and books, with a book opened in front of him that he flips through with a bored expression and his cheek resting against his hand. he appears to be in a library, lit by candles on dark grey chandeliers hung from the ceiling. meryl is in the background stretching up to reach a book high on a shelf, and beside her is a table which is also covered in candles and several tall stacks of books

panel 2: a closeup of vash's face as his eyes widen and his ears prick up. something in the book has apparently caught his attention

panel 3: a closeup of the page vash was looking at, an illustrated info sheet about the flying wyvern, khezu. a candle in the table brightly illuminates the colored page

panel 4: meryl has come around by vash's shoulders with a stack of books held in her arms. she quirks a brow as she looks over vash's shoulder at the book. vash has a neutral, hard to read look on his face, but his ears are still up and his eyes are still shiny and wide as he seems to consider the page for a while

panel 5: a yellow word bubble comes from vash, who huffs a long sigh and says, "maybe i should call him...". his head has tipped to the side as he rubs his neck and frowns, blushing a little with his ears drooping. meryl physically recoils from him and her face scrunches up in disgust, saying, "eww" and, "there's something wrong with you"

Old limbus women but one of them is my OC LMAOOOO

I love sashisu because they all very much love each other and are best friends but the shoko erasure is so blatant that it makes for a very interesting dynamic. Like yeah obviously she was part of everything that happened. Not that any of them would realise if you asked them though.

"Non paeniteo potitus."

+ details & process

And, process !!

The jump btwn the second to last and last always surprise me whenever I make one of these because I always forget to take snapshots after I start painting. It's always like: oh yeah heres the lineart with some colors- BOOM fully finished✨️

What he's holding are the Austrian imperial scepter and orb, seen below:

I was going to draw the crown too but decided I don't hate myself that much(maybe some other day), and gave him a golden laurel crown, bcs I'm obsessed with that as a motif, and also its very remincient of the boy king statue that started this whole thing!

There's some symbolism of this, both intentionally but also just historically. I love that the orb represents that the monarch is holding the world in their hand, basically every old monarchy has one of those, and I think it's very cool for symbolism. But also bcs of that, I was forced to basically draw catholic fanart so, you win some you lose some. The star halo above him head is both to reference those religious statues with star crowns(I saw them a lot in Europe and they imprinted onto my brain), as well as: his four championships of course!
