#loving the designs of every character in there but also

[amalgamcorps]

its so interesting how every anime ever is made by the same people and the same person and the exact same industry and its not like you can go and look at Ryoko Kui artwork and see she is doing the exact same shit youre complaining about her not doing? thats crazy. this is sarcasm. anyway here is some non skinny women from the source material that ryoko kui has drawn. if you where interested in, i dunno, actually using your eyes to go look for it..?

i feel its worth noting how she preserves falins blockish silhouette in a lot of the clothes she looks more comfortable in!! and the distinctions between falin and other characters who are clearly meant to be drawn skinnier ARE VERY OBVIOUS! look at this where she exaggerates the characters silhouette shapes more. it already is intentional. she is literally designed to be a bigger bulkier woman, and to mirror the body type of her brother.

the fandom didnt decide anything she was just like this and you ignored it. also there is literally another fatter main character who you also lovingly choose to ignore named namari! she left in the beginning but she is a returning character BECAUSE her role in the party IS important.

i think its very important actually to point out how much the artist literally does care about representing multiple body types in her work. the whole theme of the show is indulgence and how its not bad to eat and feed yourself and this theme in of itself shows itself through how the characters treat each other and how the humor of the series is handled. feeding people is love, feeding people is healthy, its important to eat. fat characters are not the butt of the joke, theyre not weak, theyre not fucking useless and they literally have roles in the series that youre ignoring! do i think that there is room for improvement, yes! but to outright deny the artist had any of these positive intentions is ridiculous. she is an artist, and she is a person, not some fucking anime monolith ?!?!

I really cannot overemphasize how based it is that the dungeon meshi fanart community has collectively decided that Falin is fat. Truly a historic W for anime girl likers everywhere. We need to set this as a precedent for all future popular anime - if no women in the cast are fat, the artists must pick at least one of those characters and draw them fat with absolutely no explanation or justification provided. This must continue until the people who make anime realize what they're missing out on by not putting this shit in the source material.

꒷꒦︶꒷꒦︶ ๋ ࣭ ⭑꒷꒦꒷꒦︶꒷꒦︶ ๋ ࣭ ⭑꒷꒦꒷꒦︶꒷꒦︶ ๋ ࣭ ⭑꒷꒦

˚₊‧꒰ა ☆ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ The court is everything you’d expect. It’s dreamy, where every moment feels like a soft haze of colors, magic, and an odd, beautiful vernorexia…There's an air of surreal charm in the corridors—where the light filters through the icy windows of Cair Paravel. There is always a beautiful symphony playing from a distance…no one could tell if it’s the birds or just the royal musician.

Life is draped in curtains of soft pinks and pale blues, the vibes are obviously inspired by Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette. Everything is soft, everything so delicate, something straight out of a mid-day reverie born during a very insipid maths class. But, the Narnian court however much may it coruscate under the incandescent light of purity and love is not without gossip and schemes…because where there is flaw, there is fun.

It is this resplendent mix of regal elegance and quirky charm. There's an ethereal vibe, like everything is a bit out of a dream, mingling serious matters of state with well, meretriciously swimming and giggling with the Pevensie siblings in the great Narnian sea that floats before the castle.  The courtiers are strange characters, each a little more eccentric, but also wrapped in warmth and mischief, but not real malice. Even the fauns and centaurs are strangely... elegant?

Every day is another opportunity for a highfalutin show of extraordinarily designed and embroidered outfits. Here even the most ridiculously matched clothing is gaped at. Ordinary is the biggest insult of all…a paradise indeed.

Magic oozes off the walls, the same walls that breathe and are alive, the floors carry an irrefragable charm and knowingness…

My day flies as smooth as butter on a hot pan. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁⋆｡𖦹°⭒˚｡⋆

₊˚⊹♡ 𝓘 wake up mid being crushed in the arms of my husband, Ed…I look at his sleeping face and I know I am content, I know I am where I am meant to be, in his arms, in his heart…

The ever brooding King now radiates the subtle confidence of someone who has found peace. He's regal, but not in the stiff, formal way but there’s a warmth to him, a playful, mirthful spark in his eyes that radiates mischief with his every blink. He wears his resplendent crown on his brow as he wears his sarcasm, just as effortlessly.

We waltz around royal duties and stolen moments where we meet in corridors and gardens where nothing matters but the two of us, where he leans over and whispers with the most deadpan expression about the most absurd things, making me laugh until we end up with our stomachs aching.

˚　　　　✦　　　.　　. 　 ˚　.　　　　　 . ✦　　　 　˚　　　　 . ★⋆.

⟡ ݁₊ . 𝓐nd oh, the feasts—so much food. It's a never-ending parade of luxurious treats that somehow feel entirely homemade, magic being the special ingredient. The table groans under the weight of pastries, chocolates, and fruits straight from the enchanted forests, I giggle with Lucy, as we sneak a bit of honeyed wine when no one’s looking.

˚　　　　✦　　　.　　. 　 ˚　.　　　　　 . ✦　　　 　˚　　　　 . ★⋆.

⋆. 𐙚 𝓣hen there is the daily picnic in the gardens with Susan where we gossip about the court while eating chocolate soaked strawberries as our giggles mix into a melody famously called girlhood. We share secrets, I of Edmund, she of her enormous queue of suitors, whom we make fun of together. It’s more magical than even magic can be. She’s after all, my favorite Pevensie (don’t tell Edmund).

˚　　　　✦　　　.　　. 　 ˚　.　　　　　 . ✦　　　 　˚　　　　 . ★⋆.

✶⋆.˚ 𝓒ouncil meetings come next, where Peter glares and taunts at me because he is still wary of my intentions with his little brother, like bitch chill???? But I understand that it is nothing personal just his overprotective paranoid superman complexed brother persona oozing out of him. But spoiler alert: I do grow on him later on. This rivalry is just for the plot.

˚　　　　✦　　　.　　. 　 ˚　.　　　　　 . ✦　　　 　˚　　　　 . ★⋆.

𝓝ow to conclude, the Narnian court is a soft blur, a tranquil soft blur, dreamlike but somehow so vivid and real. It is the little things like how Edmund’s eyes light up when he says something ridiculous or how Lucy despite being the youngest seems to have an air of knowingness about her, how Susan glances at me and rolls her eyes when one of her suitors approaches her or how Peter always seeks valiantly out for his siblings no matter what, that makes Narnia, Narnia…that makes our rule the golden age…where even the most ordinary things sparkle

[flawseer]

Hey Flawseer, love your art. I wanted to ask if you have any headcanons for some of the supporting characters who aren't really tied to the school, like Chameleon, Icicle, Hailstorm, etc.

Headcanons for specifically those characters? Hm...

This isn't really a headcanon, more of a "this is implied but not outright stated" kind of thing, but Chameleon's childhood was the stuff of nightmares. He hatched with a physical deformity that prevented him from sleeping more than an hour at a time. Think about what that would be like, to never be able to rest, to be tired and exhausted every day.

Child Chameleon is also an interesting window into the darker aspects of Rainwing society. The books often portray their society as idyllic, something pure and optimistic, something to aspire to. But then they had this kid who was suffering in his body, who didn't develop the expected Rainwing traits properly, and they shunned him. Even sweet, lovable, couldn't-hurt-anyone Jambu calls him weird and off-putting for not being able to change colors. We don't know why Chameleon ended up exiled; maybe it was a malicious act or maybe Chameleon lashed out and had to be removed for being dangerous. But it definitely makes you wonder if there are any other skeletons in the Rainwings' closet.

None of this excuses any of the stunts he pulled later as an adult, especially not the emotional manipulation of his daughter. But thinking about his crappy childhood may help you understand how he ended up the way he did. I hope he can find some help.

Here's a picture of him I drew once. He probably has an official design by now, I don't know.

As for headcanons about Chameleon... I think he eats meat. His biology isn't really wired for it, so it tastes absolutely disgusting to him. But he does it anyway, because while he hates the taste of meat so much, he hates the idea of being a Rainwing several times more. So he puts up with it because he knows it is the least Rainwing-like thing you can do. In a strange way, it helps him cope.

For Icicle, I think it is interesting to note that we technically never see her under normal circumstances. She appears in Jade Mountain in book 6 and certainly leaves an impression, but it's easy to forget that everything she does, she does with the awareness that Scarlet currently has a proverbial knife to her brother's throat. Thus, we never get to see what present day Icicle is like when she is able to relax.

Headcanons... The books aren't clear on how or when Scarlet made first contact with her. It could have been in school, as Moonwatcher overhears. Personally, I think Scarlet actually contacted Icicle months prior to the school opening, and instructed Icicle to insert herself as a sleeper agent. I have trouble believing that immaculate Icicle would WANT to be cooped up underground in a dirty cave with a bunch of strangers several miles from home. I think Scarlet made her do it, and she then begged Queen Glacier to send her there, knowing full well she was gonna hate it. Winter then overheard her begging and begged to come along too.

This lends weight to the scene where Icicle finally breaks down in front of Winter. The part where she's her authentic self for the first time, crying and begging Winter not to let her fall asleep so the woman who has been tormenting her inside her own head for months can't tell her that she failed and that her brother is dead.

In the end, her brother is alive. But in trying to get him free, Icicle ruined her own life.

This one might be controversial, I don't know. While I do think Icicle served in the war, and she did definitely kill Mudwings while doing so, I don't think Icicle is the one who killed Crane. Sora insists it was her, but Umber and Marsh do not recognize her, and Mudwing siblings usually fight together, so they would have both been present during her death too.

I think the story becomes more meaningful if the trauma of war just ruined Sora to such an extent that she sees her sister's killer in every somewhat outspoken female Icewing. Then she ran into the library and confirmation-biased herself into believing her hunch by reading unverified essays on Icewing genetics. You know, the same library whose references on Mudwing physiology consist entirely of The Slug-like Qualities of the Mudwings. If Wisemind penned an examination of Icewing physiology too, one can probably imagine how reliable that one would be.

This kind of turns Sora and Icicle into tragic parallels. They are both children born into a war that took their innocence from them, and in the end it ruined them both.

For Hailstorm, I believe after the battle of Jade Mountain ended and Winter got banished, Hailstorm went back to the Ice Kingdom and lived with his mother Tundra for a while. Tundra took the death of her mate very badly and became embittered. She blamed everything bad that happened to their family on Winter, insisted that Winter caused the family to rot. Winter killed the Queen, Winter killed Narwhal, Winter, Winter, Winter, she should have smashed his egg when she had the chance. Hailstorm tried to get her out of the house, to stop talking and thinking about Winter, but nothing worked. She just had her mind set on hating this kid she'd been abusing since his hatching, insisting she gave him the world and he was ungrateful.

Eventually, Hailstorm just couldn't take this constant bleakness and hatred anymore. A few months ago Icewing tradition almost made him kill his little brother and he is just done with the Ice Kingdom. Completely disillusioned. Leave it all behind.

So he goes to Winter, and he starts to ask odd questions, like "If you had never found a way to turn me back from being Pyrite, would you still have loved me", and "If I was a Skywing, would you disown me?" Winter assures him that he will always love him, but starts to get worried about the questions.

Eventually, Hailstorm just flat-out states that he was actually kind of happy with himself as a female Skywing, not having to think about their messed up family and the stupid rankings all the time. He kept thinking about it through their mother's ramblings, how he felt in that body. He's figured out that he wants to go back to being Pyrite, just obviously without the brainwash-y parts. Winter doesn't entirely understand, but wants his brother/sister to be happy, and gives him/her his blessing.

And I guess there you have it. Some of my headcanons. Chameleon the meat eater, the absolute train-wreck that is Icicle's life with a side of Sora, and Hailstorm finds self-affirmation in exploring their gender identity after cutting their toxic mom out of their life.

[imsofreakingtired]

YK WHAT.. i have been wondering.. have you ever thought about the serious characters in arcane dealing with reader with a similar personality as deadpool? (i rlly wanna know how would sevika or vi react lmao)

so i've never seen Deadpool, but i searched up his mbti and apparently he's an ENTP? so here are some Sevika x ENTP!reader headcanons :)

Sevika x ENTP!reader

**based on external research (i spent 15 minutes looking at istp x entp memes.)

every day is a constant challenge of you attempting to fluster Sevika and Sevika being utterly unfazed (she is dying on the inside.) one day your own plan backfires on you trying tease her—you’ve got her backed against a wall, holding the lapel of her coat, pulling her close: when she suddenly grabs your arm, turns you around, pushes you against the same place where she was a second ago. smirks as she watches you absolutely lose your shit

she lowkey encourages your daily chaotic evil schemes. will always pretend to disapprove of them but follows begrudgingly, ready to swoop in and clean things up if you run yourself into a deeper problem than intended. 

“hey ugly rat” (sevika) “hey hideous goon” (you) (this is your love language.) (you are both simps for each other but would never never admit it)

she keeps you grounded when you start to fly off the handle.  

she is also exasperated by your tendency to make jokes out of every situation. like one time you get into a really bad fight and she finds you bleeding out in the street. damn near dies of a heart attack at the ripe age of 41. as she’s patching you up you laugh weakly and crack a joke and she just shoots you a death glare, which is all you need to see to realize just how badly you scared her. 

modern au: you both have a taste for the spontaneous. you’re both repulsed by routine and feeling controlled. entp!reader x Sevika dating includes: not going to the same food place twice. escape rooms. rage rooms (she got banned from three and counting from taking things too far). martial arts classes (she also gets banned from those).

she calls you dumbass (affectionate) and darling (condescending.) 

whenever you start ranting or go off on a tangent in the middle of a tight situation she’ll snap “get to your point.” 

but on quiet days when you want to just ramble to her she’ll sit and listen (or at least pretend to) while she fixes her arm or rolls a cigarette

you are always late to every appointment. she is always early. she starts telling you to meet her half an hour earlier than the designated time. 

you like to team up with Jinx to bully her 

she cackles at the dad jokes you came up with to be ironic

her favorite time of day is when you’re falling asleep in her arms because that’s the one time you’re quiet and soft and let your guard down. it’s rare to see you vulnerable without your joking exterior and she’s filled with this desperate urge to protect you from everything 

you like to pick really dumb fights with her for fun: Sevika: that’s it. I’m not having a stupid argument with you anymore. You: water is not wet Sevika, whirling around: how the FUCK is water not wet?? It’s water—

you are chronically bored. she is chronically tired. this results in you sometimes waking her up at 3 in the morning trying to cook a recipe you saw online or start an ambitious obstacle course project in the living room and she just stands in the doorway trying to decide if it’s worth getting mad or just going back to sleep. 

she’ll drag you away from fighting someone in the last drop who insulted her, but then she’ll turn around and destroy anyone who hit on you 

this is the canon event of how the two of you got together: Sevika: did you just flirt with me? You: have been for the past two years, but thanks for noticing. 

you always get thrown into Stillwater. she always bails you out. it’s gotten to a point where she just hears about a scuffle or a robbery in Topside, goes straight to Stillwater, and waits for you to be hauled in. she then just bails you out and takes you back home without a word. “Sev, before you get mad, I SWEAR this time it was them–” “No.”

also: Sevika: what the hell happened here?! You: well, first of all, I was just minding my own business— Sevika: *slams fist on the table* BULLSHIT You: I WAS!!

on days when she is stressed out, dragged down by the workload, stuck in her head too much, you always know the best way to up her mood—you’re the only person in the world who can make her crack a smile, even on the worst days.

basically, this image would sum up your dynamic:

notes: omg might be fun to make this a series, send in your mbti type if you're interesting in seeing more sevika x mbti headcanons!

Have you ever seen or saw the old version(s?) of Shrike, if so, what is your opinion on them?

Hes so dumb screams

[Yes. Yes I have. The best part about getting hooked on a series is that you start to really dig for all the concept and early artworks of said creations. I love seeing where ideas and characters develop from. Seeing Shrike an Beebs old designs is a whiplash- honestly I would have never guessed these were the same characters unless it was not said so.

Oh you made me go looking for all of these, HA! I know even the bottom right is not his first design either, he had an earlier one? Honestly though, I cannot say anything as someone who also had their DA days and had an ‘anime’ phase, I look back at old designs I made and can say I am quite proud of how far I have come along too. I think when designs become more consistent and symmetrical (in a way) just shows how far you have improved.

Like I said, I cannot really say anything about them. If you’re looking for me to bash them- you’re asking the wrong person, buddy. They definitely reflect that era of the internet I would say- the early 2000s. I can definitely see the early inspiration of anime styles from the first early designs of Shrike. I’m not too sure when his design began to become more similar to the Shrike we know now- the internet does not always give me a time stamp on images.

Now I do know that I seen some people who may have been around with Monkey Wrench since the beginning (I was not one, I was very wary of the internet as a kid) do still prefer the OG Shrike. Get that, it’s nostalgic.

Personally I do prefer the current Shrike design. I mean, he is the character who did pull me into watching the series. I love how consistent and symmetrical his design is- especially the overall shape. Shrike has a very unique silhouette to him- if you just gave me a cut out of Shrike with no colors attach, I know EXACTLY who that is just from the silhouette itself.

I will say when I first saw Shrike- I did call him String Cheese, but really the overall design is really creative. I have never seen another character like Shrike. I love how he is inspired by a squid but doesn’t heavily look exact like one either. When I was creating Eight, I was inspired by a Cobalt Blue Tarantula. I didn’t want to make her the actual spider, I just wanted to use it as inspiration. That’s the fun thing about aliens- you can literally make anything an alien- that’s pretty neat! Which is what makes the Monkey Wrench universe pretty fun to make stuff for- the sky- or space? Is the limit??? You get what I mean.

Anyway, Shrike has come along way. I think its pretty cool that Zeurel kept working on these characters but definitely change the story over the years. As an artist myself, sometimes I have ideas from the past that don’t stick and are best to be left in the past. Its really cool to see the progress of it. Every story artist starts somewhere! Its super encouraging to see someone’s idea become a real deal, I hope to do the same myself one day.

I wonder how heavy that giant zipper would have been… you could have use that thing as a weapon alone…]

gelboys cinematography go brrr

I don't have a way (or time tbh) to do this coherently but I did want to point out some of the visual aspects of gelboys that have invigorated my brain so far.

1. depth of field and visual texture

I loved how long the mall scene was and how it was shot to take maximum advantage of the space. in the first screencap below, the dialogue action is taking place all the way at the back, but because everything is more or less in the same field of focus (blah blah phone camera depth of field but i'm not getting into the technical nitty-gritty) the viewer can take in everything all at once, while also following the spots of color—baa's pink guitar case, bua's green sweater—that tell the eye exactly where to look. compare that to the second shot, which maintains a very similar framing: now the action has moved to the front, so the camera's focal point does naturally focus on fourmod and baa, but chia and bua are still in the same spot they were earlier, in the center of the frame, inescapable for both the viewer and fourmod. you get so much information from every single shot, and the way the action moves forward and backward in these spaces to create visual texture in this show is so pleasing to me.

2. ambient + diagetic nighttime lighting

I was SO happy about this. we always complain about how people in QL are always sleeping with the lights on but the gelboys team is out here showing us you can have it all! you can have a realistically dark room that utilizes natural sources of ambient lighting! in this scene, there's the various LED computer lights, the phone screen, the lava lamp, and the street lights coming in through the window. that overhead shot with the phone screen illuminating fourmod's face through the glass table is one of my favorites from the show so far.

3. montage of decorative elements

serves a few purposes: scene transitioning and shorthand exposition (fourmod suggested they all get gel nails for the performance so the implication is that these are the designs they chose), reinforcing the visual motif, and revealing the individuality of the characters. the bassist seems to be more minimalist compared to baa and fourmod, but even they have different decoration styles, with baa repping his favorite girl group, while fourmod goes for cute and hodgepodge (and changes his mind quite a bit—stickers and nails are good for the fickle-minded because nails grow out and stickers are generally easily removable).

4. dirty framing (with additional layers)

semi-related to the first point, but the use of dirty framing to show both context and conflict is so effective. back to the mall scene—fourmod seething while creeping on chian and bua via spotify playlist was a pretty classic use of this, but when he comes back a third time (these are unprecedented levels of downbadness, I'm afraid), the crowd action has surged to the front and grown even more chaotic. now, not only are there more people between fourmod and the object of his obsession, but this time he's behind the glass, and thus smaller in the frame—an even more isolated position.

also want to shout out my favorite dirty shot from ep 1; the scene is populated with students but the framing of bua and chian's faces in the foreground keeps the viewer grounded, and I especially love the second frame, where you can only see fourmod's eye.

oh! and these; the amount of contextual information the viewer gets here is so pleasing. the intense flirting is the centerpiece, but the framing and body movement also shows you baa's annoyance/displeasure one moment, followed by fourmod's other friends playing documentarian. the social aspect of how this is all unfolding—not only the use of social media, but the monitoring of said social media as well as real-life interactions—adds additional textual layers on top of all the visual layers in this show. it's so good I wanna cry.

hq boys take you to a party!!

characters ꕤ bokuto, atsumu, matsukawa, suna

cw ꕤ mentions of alcohol, getting drunk, and drug use.

wc ꕤ 1275

BOKUTO would introduce you to all his friends eagerly the minute you stepped in the door. at every party he went to he greeted all his friends before any party activity. he’d have a hand on you at all times, on your waist, on your thigh if you were sitting, or he’d be holding your hand, his arms would be around your shoulders, however he could he’d be holding you. he’d take you to the dance floor, keeping you close and dancing with you like you were the only people in the room. if you had to go to the bathroom he’d guard the door and hold your cup. i don’t know how reliable he would be with the cup though, considering he’d probably get distracted by a friend and leave it somewhere, or he’d spill it somehow. if he did do either of those things he would buy you a new one and apologize profusely, saying he wouldn’t do it again. you loved him, but you knew he definitely would. he would drive you guys there and back. he was always the designated driver, unless you wanted to stay sober, letting him get drunk instead. if you went out with friends, he would definitely drink with you. if you wanted to leave, he’d grab your hand and make sure you got out of there immediately, especially if you were uncomfortable. if you guys left because it was getting late and there was no urgency, he’d want to say bye to all his friends first. then you guys would go home, shower, and have a very relaxing rest of your night in bed cuddling.

ATSUMU, like bokuto, would make sure you’re always next to him, keeping you close. he’d make you dance with him almost the whole time you were there, save for breaks to sit and talk to friends and getting drinks that you both sat and downed in seconds to just go back and dance. the more drunk you were, the more eager you were to go back to dancing. if you were really drunk, you’d be the one dragging him, and he’d just be laughing through it, letting you rush him to the dance floor as he chugged the last of his drink. he’d play beer pong with his friends, saying every single one he made in was for you. he’d let you take the winning shot for him, giving you the sweetest kiss when he won, not because anything was at stake to win, but because he was so competitive that he would be glad with any win he could get. if you had to go to the bathroom, he’d hold your cup for you. if he was sober or a little tipsy, he’d treat it like his baby. nobody could get near it. they couldn’t even try. if anybody looked at your cup he’d shoot them the meanest glare he could. if he were drunk, that cup would end up spilled on the floor or left somewhere. if he were maybe in the middle, just sober enough to know he couldn’t be trusted with it, he’d ask if the bartender could hold it and sit at the bar waiting for you. if you were uncomfortable, or if you had gotten sick, he’d make sure to get you guys a ride, even if he were super drunk. it was the only responsible thing he could do while drunk. by the time you guys went home, you’d both be too drunk to care about changing, and would collapse in the bed, or on the couch, falling asleep instantly.

MATSUKAWA’s more the type to sit and chat with his friends. he’d walk in the party with you, grab a drink for the both of you, and sit down with you in his lap. he’d make sure you’re completely included in the conversation, not even leaving you out of inside jokes that his friends mentioned. by the end of the party, his friends were your friends. he also wasn’t type to drink a lot, but if you wanted to drink a lot, then he would go with you whenever you wanted to get a drink. he’d even do a shot or two with you, if that was what you were in the mood for. most of the night would be spent sitting, but you could very easily persuade him to dance if a song you really liked came on. he melted at the sight of a pout on your face matched with your big doe eyes. he couldn’t resist you. there were other times you would just get up and let him know you were going to dance. those times he was very distracted from the conversation with his friends, making sure to keep an eye on you. if anyone tried to make a move on you, or if you looked even the slightest bit uncomfortable, he’d go up to you and make sure that person was dealt with, and you felt safe. he’d keep your cup safe for you if you went off to dance or went to the bathroom, and if you came back and saw it was a little bit more empty than you’d left it, he’d shrug it off and say you were remembering wrong with a lazy smirk on his face. if he noticed you got more comfortable on his lap, cuddling into him and yawning, not wanting to say that you were tired because he was having a good time with his friends, he’d immediately stop the conversation, say a quick goodbye to his friends, and pick you up in a princess carry, gently carrying you to the car and driving the both of you home (he’d definitely be sober).

SUNA, holding your hand and making sure you’re close to him, would grab you a drink and lead you to a different room, where he’d smoke with his friends. he’d keep you on his lap, chatting with you and his friends. he would take a million pictures of you (and with you) looking your absolute best, turning the party into a photoshoot. if you wanted to dance, he’d go dance with you, taking videos of you dancing and laughing and having the most fun of your life, partly because you were drunk. he’d let you drag him around the party, dancing with you, playing party games with you, all while filming half the event. he’d make sure you were comfortable the whole time, keeping creeps away from you without you even knowing they’d try to talk to you. he made sure you had a good time with no interruptions. when you went into the bathroom, he’d guard the door, and when you went out you’d immediately go back to having fun with him. if there was ever a time when you were uncomfortable, he’d ask if you wanted to leave, and the second you said yes you’d be gone no question. he’d make a beeline for the door with you, and the party, for the both of you, would be over. as soon as the both of you got home, he got a bath ready, and you’d be in there together for an hour probably, relaxing together. he’d draw circles on your back and wash your hair, leaving gentle kisses on your skin before you both got out and went to bed, sleepily entwined into each other’s arms.

thanks for reading! this was super fun to make, i adore these boys with all my heart. if you want to request another character (or if you want to request anything), feel free to send an ask! 𖹭

m.list

previous work (on top of the world - bokuto x reader) | next work

[wickedsick]

WITCH WATCH wins "god I hope they stick the landing, or this is gonna get really weird"

This series has always been straddling a weird line between "Nico and Morihito love each other" and "Nico is a child now". As we seemingly start to wrap up the child arc, and the feelings return, Shinohara-sensei needs to do a good job not making it creepy.

Kagurabachi wins "Images that go hard"

Iori's dilemma is interesting to me, and I hope she does get to escape the torment nexus.

I also appreciate the explanation of whatever the hell Hiruhiko's doing, and how he beat Sengoku.

Spy X Family wins "new ensemble cast"

These new kids don't immediately grip me the same way Becky and Damian did, except for Connie. Connie is funny.

SAKAMOTO DAYS wins "Oh you got one of them traumas"

This is genuinely a really compelling backstory for Shin. Mister Ando is a very engaging character, and we now fully know why Shin believes himself to be irredeemable.

Star of Beethoven wins "freak unleashed"

Yaso's backstory did get to me here, but once again the moment Beethoven got to talk he stole the show. He looks genuinely menacing in every panel and it's so funny that he's the deuteragonist.

Embers wins "best new dynamics"

This chapter got several genuine laughs out of me. Takami, Haitani, and Yukizuki are all fun and flashy characters, and I like how they're all a bit stupid.

RuriDragon wins ":("

This is kinda sad, but it also makes a bit of sense. I do hope there's some kind of reconciliation here, though.

Desscaras wins the Desscaras Award for Excellence in Desscaras

She's genuinely hilarious, but she manages to not be annoying in her narcissism because of the context we're afforded from last chapter

Ultimate Exorcist Kiyoshi wins "look at them go!"

This is an excellent way to give these two a powerup. It keeps their shape language and makes excellent use of Jack Joe's design, and making them fight Yoraku is another great choice. Like I always say, Usui has the aesthetics down pat.

Blue Box wins "Chinatsu-dorable"

This chapter is just cuteness after cuteness after cuteness. Chibi-natsu is especially cute.

THE AMOUNT OF THOUGHT AND CARE THAT YOU PUT INTO THOSE DESIGNES IS JUST INCREDIBLE!! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜They both look incredible, have awesome lore behind them and are so fiting for each of the kids! I love it! The explanation behind why they look this way is also so well written! You came up with a perfect background for each of the characters in my opinion!!

And i just love every single interaction between the characters that you included!! They ooze with character and i love how they demonstrate the bond between them :3!! (Bulkhead using his belly as a drum to play along with Miko is so charming 🥺)

Once again, incredible work, those are among your best designs ever for sure!! 😍

JASPER TRIO!

Jack

- Seashore Jasper is his hometown.

- His mother is a local healer and his father was a sailor, but died in the storm many years ago.

- Jack took over his love of sailing (despite his mother protests). He likes fishing and explore new places on his old boat.

- The only one from Seashore Jasper trio, who has a survival instinct.

- Pretty crafty and cunning, knows how to save his ass in the dangerous situation.

- Very close with Arcee (she probably sees him as her dragonet), and became a best friend for Smokescreen

Miko

- Born in the tribe of jungle people culturally close to Maya.

- Was send to the Seashore Jasper for the cultural exchange (actually her own village just tired of her really much), but even there couldn’t integrate well.

- Great hunter, fearless fighter.

- She paints her skin with hieroglyphs which bringing a good luck. She actually likes to draw them everywhere: on the tools, on the walls, on the other people…

- Makes voodoo dolls.

- Miko sees Bulkhead and Wheeljack as her real family members, and they see her as their tiny little sib, spending a lot of time with her and teaching her a mudwings wisdom)

Rafael

- Born in the family of northern people (basically vikings), who moved in the warmer region for a some time.

- Raf has a health issues because of his weak body. He always wearing warm clothes because he’s always cold.

- He is very literate and knows a lot useful facts.

- Like to study alchemy with Ratchet, help him with peaking herbs.

- His flock has a lot of legends and stories about dragons (probably because they had the most contact with them in ancient times), so he knew a lot about dragons before meeting team Prime.

- Love to learn new things about dragon tribes

Raf got his scar from Unicron infection (which works like Other mind in this AU). It’s also made his eyesight worse, and led to him having to wear glasses

P.s.

As I mentioned a while ago, in this AU Jasper is a small port city and called Seashore Jasper (because it’s sounds cooler). It’s looks quite similar to Italy and is part of a large country that basically plays the role of Europe here. It is adjacent to the lands of the northern people and the territories of people from the southern tropics. At the moment, all three peoples are trying to maintain peaceful relations after a series of conflicts, including exchanging knowledge of culture and traditions

this description made me realise what one of my favourite MXTX character tropes is: Over-Worked, Under-Appreciated Employee Who Is Not Above Becoming Somewhat Evil About It

i like to think everyone has a colour associated with them, whether its just your fave colour or what you generally wear most of or what colour your bedroom walls are. i always associate the name sophie with dark blue, my mum is always a nice turquoise, i like to think my colour is a bright sunflower yellow.

if you have a specific shade pls tell me i adore when ppl have associated colours and tell me them, bc i think of them when i see that colour

Solas and Mythal’s relationship is that perfect blend of fucked up and tragic I have been wanting from them for a decade. The mother and her child, the two lovers, a queen and a general, the dog and its master, the servant and the lord. Love it. I knew I sensed fuckery with the way solas talked about her despite ‘burning her off his face’. Then to see him shrinking up in front of her, how he groaned ‘mythal’ in dread and even began to hold the dagger out towards her to take bc he knows he’ll do anything for her if she asks. man needs therapy for his absolutely disastrous and problematic situationship thank you for letting me watch your traumas unfold like that king

noelle........ im not like a deltarune/undertalehead buuut i do like watching theory/character analysis vids sometimes:) i like the christian deer girl. chismas

[science-lings]

so the Dark Knights of Steel didn't give any of the robins backstories or heavily defined characteristics and I want to change that. I love a good fantasy AU and the batfam. What could go wrong?
