In Regards To Your 2024 Summary:

Holy shit it’s been another year????? The hell?????

Also! Your art style is gorgeous and that being found in 2023 and then refined throughout late 2023 and the entirety of 2024 really shows, as does your growth in panel layouts, perspective, and — as you said — experimentation. If you ever post your animation or video game art I’m looking forward to it.

As cheesy as it sounds, being able to laugh at funny comics and look at all the details of your art really made my 2024 brighter, even when things were hard. Including looking at your older art— it doesn’t need to be new to be enjoyable! I’m glad your art is well loved and it’s a privilege to have been here since the (near) beginning. I hope you take care of yourself in 2025 and beyond!

You and your art bring a lot of people a lot of joy never forget that <3

Thank you so much for keeping up with my art journey throughout these last two years! Two years!!! I am baffled at how that feels both too long and too short!

Admittedly, my art summary didn't manage to capture the fact that I did a lot of comic layouts that I'm really proud of. I also drew more backgrounds and made some very detailed works (*Dungeon Meshi spoilers for these examples*).

The growth is lot more evident when comparing my 'best' comics of 2023 to 2024:

Sometimes the growth is vertical, sometimes it is horizontal - and damn, sometimes it goes out of sight into the Z-plane. But it is always happening!

It’s so fucking sad how many animals are seen as food first and only

Pigs are among the smartest mammals and there’s a ton of really cool wild pig species, but most people just think of bacon and pork when they hear about pigs

And a lot of sea animals will show mostly them as food in the search when you want to look at pictures of them alive in nature, and recipes instead of scientific articles

It’s like… wild animals didn’t evolve for our sake, and even domestic animals have more to them than just being food

Exactlyyyyy!!!! Many times I've made the mistake of googling “lobster” when I’m literally just thinking about lobsters and want to see cool pictures of em, only to be flashbanged with a sea of red, dead carapaces. I just wanted to see my crafty diggy friend :( I always have to specify “lobster alive” or “lobster in water”. Nevermind chickens, pigs, cows, sardines, salmon, anchovies, shrimp! It baffles me how even when you point this out or talk about the animals in some other unrelated way people will STILL reel it back to how they taste in some way!?? Like it shouldn’t take being a vegan to see how cool these animals are as their living selves, when they can carry out their natural behaviour. It doesn’t take being a vegan as a matter of fact, some peeps are just Like That on purpose

𓈒ㅤׂ 𝜗𝜚 WITH: adam, akoya, hayami, hatsumi, himuro, cosmo, inaba x you

𓈒ㅤׂ 𝜗𝜚 SUMMARY: the kengan men had a bit too much to drink - how do they act?

𓈒ㅤׂ 𝜗𝜚 WARNINGS:

suggestive, cursing, mentions of alcohol, drunk idiotic men, kinda angst and emotional abuse in akoya’s part, female pronouns and body parts used, ooc (🥲)

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹ ADAM

literally starts speaking straight English

cusses out anyone in the premises.

like even Cosmo is getting hated on but not you bc your his bbg 😝

slurs his words

“adam? you sure you haven’t had enough to drink yet?”

“of course I fuckin’ didn’t hab enouf! hey bartenda, pour me another fuckin’ gass will ya?”

you deadpanned while you were staring at the clearly drunk man who was now asking for more drinks. if he kept this up, sooner or later he would end up passing out somewhere.

“don’t pour him that drink, for his own good”

the bartender stopped in his tracks, the bottle of drink hovering the cup he was about to fill. he stared back at you and and gave you a slight nod before putting the bottle down before walking away from the counter where your boyfriend and you were currently sat.

“oi! whadda hell? don’t intervene in thibngs that doesn’t hab anythin’ to do with yu!”

“actually it does something to do with me since your drunk as hell and apparently I’m the only person available to care for you while your in this state. c’mon, we’re going home.”

adam looked at you dumbfounded, not budging a bit.

“now.”

“whaaaateverrr”

➽───────────────❥

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹ AKOYA

oh my GOSHH.

this man doesn’t drink that much but when he actually gets drunk it’s dreadful.

like he starts acting more mean and does the weirdest shit ever. Death stares anyone that tries coming near him.

like you could be a damn waiter and he’s already giving MAD attitude like insulting you and everything while you there like “what the hell I do..?” 🙁

“woman. get over here. now.”

you were looking for akoya, your “loving” husband until you heard his voice, obviously directed to you. you turned your head, a blissful smile now on your face.

you rush towards him, not knowing what territory you just walked into. before you could even let a word out, your were being tugged by your wrist by said man outside.

you were pushed into a empty alleyway before feeling sharp sting on your face and a metallic taste in your mouth. your face now scrunched up in horror. you look back up at the man to see a face equivalent to a angry dinosaur. he was obviously mad, but why?

“haven’t I told you time after time not to come to my locations before letting me know before hand?”

you open your mouth to speak before you saw him raise an eyebrow, as if daring you to say something. you slowly shut your mouth back up not trying to provoke the already mad man. you avoided his gaze choking back tears, feeling ashamed of yourself.

the man sighed loudly before lifting your face and slowly rubbing your cheek.

“i know you’re simply worried for me but my job is too dangerous for you to show up unannounced. try and let me know before you come. alright?”

you nodded slowly a small smile creeping into your face.

➽───────────────❥

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹ HAYAMI

passes out.

can’t handle alcohol as much as he would like to and it’s funny as hell

you guys could be having a good conversation about whatever and he just passes out and you are left stunned 😧

“and honestly i think that koga is a nice guy, i just feel that sometimes he gets a little too...touchy?”

“mhm, totally..!”

you stared at the wide eye man with confusion plastered on your face.

“hayami? are you okay?”

“huh? yeah, why do you ask?”

you squinted in disbelief before pointing a finger at him.

“your face. it’s totally red and you look like your about to explode. maybe give the alcohol a rest?”

“yeah yeah totally…”

famous last words.

the man then came plunging towards you, head now on your chest while he was seemingly unconscious.

“hayami? hayami - oh my gosh.”

your face that’s was plastered with confusion was now concern as the man would reply to any of your desperate calls out to him.

you tried everything, tapping, calling, pinching, and even slapping.

it seemed like the man went into a deep slumber as soon as he passed out since you were now hearing light snores. you were glad he was okay but the only question now was how were you gonna get the giant of a man home?

➽───────────────❥

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹ HATSUMI

he’s most definitely the type of person to do some dumb shit when he’s drunk

like hit on a man or something

i can’t even tell you what he would do because that man is unpredictable, just know that it will be the dumbest shit you ever seen 😪

“hey pretty, wanna watch me do something cool?”

“hey ugly, your drunk so im scared of what this ‘cool’ thing is..”

“im not ugly! i mean, you’re engaged to me so im definitely not that ugly riiiight?”

hatsumi then proceeded to wink at you while you rolled your eyes before getting on-top of the bar table and getting on his hands, doing a handstand.

“oh my gosh…hatsumi! what- what are you even doing?!”

“hold on beautiful! im not done yet!”

you face palmed internally while hatsumi now bended his knees to form a scorpion tail before using his toes to grab the water bottle in front of you and flip it. surprisingly, the bottle landed upright, making it a successful bottle flip.

you were about to scold hatsumi before a whole bunch of other drunk men started to applaud your dumb fiancé and his antics. hatsumi then back flipped and took a dramatic bow before making eye contact with you - smirking.

➽───────────────❥

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹ HIMURO

drunk himuro is a rare but adorable sight.

definitely tries not to hit on other women in order not to betray you which is cute but the more women that try and get his number - the more he would falter..

is happier than usual when he sees you; almost like a dog

slurs his words but not as much as lihito

here you were, the sworn lover of the man in front of you who was avoiding a woman who was obviously infatuated with your boyfriend.

honestly you had caught your boyfriend in the act of infidelity many times before so something as simple as this wasn’t a shock to you. the thing that was shocking was the way that said boyfriend was avoiding contact with the woman.

“c’mon hottie, exchange numbers with me! i promise i won’t play you, wouldn’t even dreaaam ‘bout it!”

“sorry i have a girlfriend - matter of fact ‘m pretty sure she’s here riiiight now..”

he was desperate to get this woman off of him because at the end of the day, he knew his limitations and he was trying his hardest not to go past them in order to keep his relationship.

while himuro was busy fending off the woman, you were busy admiring how considerate he was being even though he was drunk as hell. you’d be lying if you said your heart didn’t skip a beat.

finally you decided to get the woman off of your boyfriends back before it started getting messy.

➽───────────────❥

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹ IMAI

starting ranting about the most randomest things ever

might vent outta no where and start off normal and slowly progress to bawling his damn eyes out

super sensitive - might slur his words

bonus points if you’re drunk too

"and y'know, me being me, I went and threatened those wannabe yakuza! but it didn't really end up in my favor.."

you didn't know how you got into this situation. you were already having a rough day; nothing was working in your favor so you were both stressed and pissed off. you came to your local bar to drink some of your worries off but by fate itself: you were sitting next to the rambling man who's name was como. or camo? maybe bolos. hell, you were too drunk to remember. all you knew was that you were being forced to listen to this man ramblings since you were apparently the only ear that was open to listen.

"i ended up getting jumped by a couple of those lanky yakuza.. i was only 14 by the way but those dickheads didn't even try and hold back!"

he slowly started to look down at his half empty bottle before speaking again.

"i was on the brink of death. practically crossing the bridge but before i could close my eyes, someone saved me."

you were already very invested in this guy's life story but you couldn't even open your mouth to ask what happened after before seeing the drunk man break out in tears.

"and *sniff* he beat the - the shit out of them! and then asked me to ugh- train under *sniff* him! my master is such a good guuuy!"

the drunk man was breaking down completely. and you being drunk as well somehow resonated with him. it wasn't long before you wrapped your hands on his other shoulder and leaning into his neck before crying as well.

"he *hiccup* sounds like a good guy.. *sniff* where did you find himmm? *hiccup*"

"i don't knowww!"

the man then turned around to face you before hugging you back and making the both of you tumble to the floor - crying even more than before.

the whole bar was looking at you two crying on the floor hiccuping and venting to each other about all of your worries.

a man who obviously just walked in turned around to leave while murming something before the man you were crying with called out to him.

"adam *hiccup* you're here?"

"I DONT KNOW YOU!"

➽───────────────❥

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹ INABA

IF HE EVEN DRINKS?

i have a head canon that he detests alcohol but if somehow he drinks let alone gets drunk I think he would be just a little more carefree

probably acting like those weed heads that don’t gaf about anything (hatsumi)

doesn’t have any sense of balance whatsoever

“and goodness urita, the guy is wasted! i thought you told me that he didn’t drink!”

poor you, you hadn’t known about the scene that was unfolding in front of you with the man named inaba. in all honesty, you hadn’t known never really seen the introverted man act this way - in matter of fact, you assumed that he couldn’t get drunk!

but the man now in front of you was starting to crawl on all fours while continuously stumbling and sometimes tripping over his own feet. he was obviously out of it.

now you were currently on the phone with inaba’s best friend hoping to find some closure on the scene you just walked on. preferably getting answers onto how and why is he even there! it didn’t help to see inaba basically so out of it that he was stumbling and practically just trying not to pass out.

it was cute because he had a small smile he kept on his face, as if thanking you for going through all of this to make sure that he, a very drunk inaba, was safe and unharmed.

heh.. trying a new style. btw there will be more parts so be on the lookout!!

Countdown to 2025: Jan 1

Arranged Marriage AU / Marvel - Winteriron / Fireworks

There were fireworks at midnight to celebrate the marriage. To celebrate the end of the war.

The end of the war was, Tony could agree, worth celebrating. Too many lives had been lost. Too many resources drained. Too many families broken. The end of the war was a good thing, no question.

The marriage... Well, that remained to be seen, didn’t it? Tony glanced sidelong as his new husband. 

James was watching the fireworks, his expression impassive, betraying neither wonder nor disdain. It was much the same expression he’d worn when they had first met in person, a week ago, and when they’d sworn their vows to one another earlier that day. Not a man for displays of emotion, it seemed.

Tony suppressed a sigh and looked back up at the display. “Do you not like the fireworks?” he asked quietly.

From the corner of his eye, he saw James turn to look at him. “They are pretty enough,” he said, “but the noise is unpleasant.”

It was hard to argue with that. “I suppose,” Tony said, not looking away from the fireworks, “that to have something beautiful, one must sometimes endure a little unpleasantness.”

After a pause, James said, “Is this -- me -- the unpleasantness you endure for the beauty of peace?”

“Are you so certain that it must be unpleasant?” Tony wondered. 

“I am maimed,” James said, with the most emotion he’d displayed so far. He rubbed at his shoulder, just above the empty sleeve.

“A lot of people were hurt in the war,” Tony said. He tapped absently at his own chest, the scar left by the wound that had nearly killed him. “That’s not so bad.”

James grunted. “Once, I was pleasant. I knew how to be charming and dance and talk and say flattering things. That man, he is gone, and will never return.”

Tony shrugged one shoulder. “Flattery and dancing and charm are for courting,” he said, “and we are well past that. I need to know only one thing of you: will you treat me with respect?”

“I-- That is my intention, yes.”

“Then everything else can be managed.” Tony faced his husband directly. “Let me decide whether I find our marriage unpleasant, rather than trying to make up my mind for me. Unless you think you’ll be the one in an unpleasant situation?”

James stared at him, and he stared back. The lights of the fireworks lit up James’ face with strange shadows, but Tony was almost certain that, as the crowds gasped and cheered at the finale, he saw his husband’s mouth curve into a smile, just for an instant before James looked back up at the display above them.

“Something beautiful,” he murmured, almost too quiet for Tony to hear, and some sort of tension eased in him. Louder, he said, “We must have fireworks every year, for our anniversary.”

“What a splendid idea,” Tony said, and thought that, just perhaps, there might be something to celebrate here, after all.
