Kanako Murakami on Shoma's retirement

Shoma

Thank you for your hard work! It feels like just the other day when I was skating at the Osu rink wearing my light blue classroom sweatshirt and red gloves bigger than my hands.

After that, we made games together and practiced together, and we played catch while making ice...For some reason, there was a time when he ignored me, probably because I was in a rebellious phase...

Even in those happy memories, we risked our lives to practice together.

During my active career, I have many fond memories of practicing with Shoma, and he is an important younger brother to me.

After all, when I watch a match, I worry about it like I'm watching a relative...lol

I feel a little sad when I think that Shoma is going to start a second life, but I also look forward to seeing what kind of life he will lead.

I also think that I have to work hard so that I can be a big sister that you can always rely on lol.

I hope that the second chapter of Shoma's hard work will be filled with happiness.

Ooo, so glad your asks are open! I don't have an ask ( yet, anyway ) but just wanted to let you know how much I love your site here and all the wonderful ideas you have for us! Truly giving me alot of inspiration, honestly! Now if it would only flow from my brain to my pen ... Anyway, thank you so much for all you do, and I hope today brings you something nice!!!

Thank you so much, what a lovely message! 😍

The brain to pen pipeline is not always there, I'm afraid. But keep being inspired, keep thinking creatively and one day it will just flow out of you.

Have a wonderful day, my friend :)

Oh my god your old arts! I followed you back then and I never noticed goes much your style had evolved in the last decade! What growth!

AHH OMG THANK YOU!! tbh I always forget too or don't really see it until I dig up old work and compare it :D Especially comparing art from 2016-2018 to now really shows it well. I think around late 2019/2020 I found the style I have now and the changes are not as big anymore. I started to ink with a monoliner and have more bold and confident lineart and I started flat colors and color blocking around then which really shaped the style I have now. but before this some art was really messy and you can really see I still was searching for what works best and my style :D a lot of tries with sketchy lines and a coloring that was more paint like compared to the flat colors now. Hehe It's fun to look at the old work on compare it. Some old are I still really like, at others I look now with cringe. But it was all needed process!

Let me share some random collection of some old art :D

My dearest, darling Daria, it's been far too long (lol).

I had a little Hannix thought in the car this morning which I'm hoping will make you laugh. I kept thinking about the two of'em being the godparents of Bob and wifey's oldest son Auggie and whenever Jake takes him for the day, shenanigans can and will ensue which is exactly why Natasha will not ever let those two go into a Home Depot alone......like ever (lol).

Aww, my lovely Mary, it has indeed been far too long since I had the pleasure of talking to you!

I'm so happy that you thought of me (of all people!) when you had an idea about Hannix😍! That is so special, thank you so much!

And omg, I LOVE your idea😍😂! I would even go as far as that Natasha cannot let them out of her sight for two minutes, cause otherwise they immediately find a way to create a disaster🤣. And she has definitely learnt that the hard way🤭... (I'm thinking about that one time where they tried to bake some muffins for Auggie's school and ended up covering the kitchen counter PLUS the kitchen island and themselves in flour, top to bottom😂.)

Oh dear, thank you so much for sharing this with me! This has just made my day - and since it's two minutes to midnight here in Switzerland, it has also made the next day for me already🥰.

Send to 10 other bloggers you think are wonderful. Keep this going to make someone smile ❤️

Thank you <3 I'm sorry it took me so long to answer! It's been a pretty hectic few days/weeks. I love you Linds!!

Omg! Happy Birthday 🎂

❤️ thank you, Jaqui! ❤️🥰

Hello, dear :D first and foremost, thank you so much for your story, it's a wonderful piece of art and I love every bit of it :D especially the characters (especially the mom <3) the RO's are so sweet, wonderful and amazing :D

I love all of your snippets and ideas, it's so wonderful to read them, and it makes me happy you can share them with us <3 I hope you feel better soon and that the ones who are so awful leave to you will you alone <3 you are such a sweet and wonderful person, so I feel sad that these things happen to you.

Well, I'm not sure if you got my last ask but I wanted to ask if we can catch the KN in the end of the game? Can we help to get MC's parents back together? Thank you and I hope you have a great start in your week :D

Thank you so much! I’m so happy that you enjoy the premise of my story and my characters! Eliza definitely holds a special place in my heart. She’s a woman that has done so much without expecting anything in return, and has finally reached the end of her rope; does that mean she’s going to stop? Not at all. We’ll see what happens because of it.

And I’m so happy to share snippets, or answer asks, and talk about my ideas with you all. It’s one of my greatest pleasures�� it’s why I created the Absentia Tumblr to begin with! To be able to talk and interact with you all a bit easier (which is also why I adore my Discord so much too— I have so much fun on there with my little gremlins). The terrible asks don’t get me down, partially because I’m used to them at this point and partially because if they’re focused on me they won’t be focused on other people too, but I appreciate you concern all the same. It warms my heart that I have such sweet people like you following my story. ❤️❤️❤️

As for the Kidnapper? They have multiple endings— at least that I have planned— and it’ll definitely be possible to have them get justice… it just may not be in the way some would assume (possibly). And the MC can help Oliver and Eliza get back together, correct, but it’s not absolutely needed as they’ll get back together regardless. It’ll just be in a different way than if you were to help. I have a FAQ that may help answer some of your other immediate questions (feel free to send them to me, but I thought this might help out too).

I hope you have an amazing start to your week as well! (Or an amazing Tuesday depending on where you are.) 💞

That YouTube video you made with y/n being the 8th member of Dream was so cute😭 ngl I love videos like that😆 but editing those must have taken a while I’m guessing? Especially putting your own subtitles on etc!

Also how have you been? I saw that you’re back to working! I hope work is treating you kindly💕

I’m doing good, it’s kinda slow searching for jobs every day but I’m keeping myself busy by learning how to bake bread🍞, find new things to cook for dinner and slowly taking up learning mandarin again since I have all the time in the world now to practice at a snail pace🐌 - 🌻 Anton

Awe ty tyyy, it did take a while but i did it slowly over time lol.

Sorry for not responding for a while med school is burying me lol. Work has been treating me alright, a lot of overtime 😭

How’s the job searching going? It’s been a while since we’ve talked :) yum bread i can it it plan when its self baked lol. Mandarin sounds hard to learn 💀 props to you on learning the language.

[creativepromptsforwriting]

I hope you're having a lovely day. You sure make mine better <3

Thank you so much, my love! I'm currently enjoying my lunch break in the sun, so I'm doing alright. Hope you have a lovely day, as well :)
