I wish I could've given Megumi spikier hair but this is the best I could do that wasn't species locked or impossible to find 😭😭😭 also getting Yuji hair that is remotely close to his canon look was a lost cause so I didn't try lol

Tbh there is a nostalgia to this specific style of shoyru lineart that I really wanna try to capture for Boimo.

I know Shoyru is suppose to evoke the vibes of Mew but this is also giving Dratini/Dragonair/Dragonite in different ways.

I don't know why but when I was little I thought only rich people could have the desert pets xD I remember admiring desert shoyrus.

Starry/fire seemed popular back then... I started with a blue shoyru that I painted purple then later silver... And I just like the colour palette of the old striped more. The saturated shadows make it look almost glowy.

Anyway, that's the end of my shoyru nostalgia for now, I have to be a productive human.

that one lost desert plot would've worked a lot better and be less jarring at the end if they had like, an official NT comic prologue or something to lead up to it

nabile, tomos and jazan (and nightsteed maybe) meet each other as youngsters when jazan approaches the junior scarabs with mercenary work - help him find a lost temple, and they'll get a cut of the treasure.

along the way they grow closer, save each other's lives, and jazan eventually reveals that one of the treasures in the temple is a magical scroll which will hopefully cure his father's ill-defined affliction. Jazan and nabile grow especially close, as she is charmed by his nervous-nerd energy and passion, and he is beguiled by her drive and cleverness - while he and tomos bond over rough childhoods, their athleticism, and the simple desire for happiness, in whatever form it takes, matching tomos and nabile's veteran banter and teamwork.

they get there and pass the trials of the temple, and with the (not that impressive after all) treasure won, jazan feels the pull of his father calling to him, and very reluctantly parts ways with his friends.

years later, razul finally decodes the scroll, and learns the conditions for "finishing" the curse put upon him by jazan's mother to stop him from taking over the world as a sorcererous overlord - their son must marry his true love, and they must be blue-blooded royalty. not understanding love and seeing an easy out, razul browbeats his abused son to go to sakhemet, the nearest monarchy, and marry amira, one way or another. the dutiful son, jazan goes with an entourage of masked undead guards.

as soon as he makes it into the city, he is spotted by an adult tomos, who immediately runs up to reconnect. jazan is initially elated to see him again, but quickly remembers WHY he is there and tries to turn tomos away. tomos insists and eventually jazan grabs him by the collar and orders him to find nabile and the other scarabs and run. tomos is shoved away by the guards and runs to figure out what has happened to their friend. Jazan is rejected by amira, and with failure not an option, does the whole curse thing to force the issue with his guards and the undead dimension.

this would require a reworking of the plot itself but, like, eh. it'd end the same.

Safiya the Sakhmet, Lost Desert resident kyrii! She's a freelance scribe; if you've got copper ingots, she's there to make sure you complain about 'em. On papyrus. So it's official. She's got a big crush on this dancer from a Qasalan performing troupe. She's been offering services to the troupe at discount just to get a chance to flirt with her.
