── 𐔌 SYLUS ؛ ଓ

si sylus yung mukhang bad boy na lowkey intimidating pero mabait sa bata kaya biglang magiging fan favorite

si tita baby: "alam mo nung high school ako nakipag date rin ako sa isang bad boy eh... kaso iniwan ako..." (habang may hawak na red horse)

sylus, deadpan: "… sorry to hear that po."

brings imported chocolate or some fancy snack from abroad tas ubos in 0.2 seconds kasi dinumog ng mga bata

sumubok mag-karaoke kahit alam niyang sintunado 😭 "tito ano next song?"

mga pinsan mo: "UY BAD TRIP KA SYLUS HINDI YAN YUNG TUNOG NG 'BAKIT PA BA' NI JAY R!!"

after the party habang nag-aayos ng gamit biglang lalapit si tita baby: "wag mong saktan yung pamangkin ko ha? kasi pag sinaktan mo…" (may hawak na tsinelas)

sylus, with a small smile: "opo, tita."

── 𐔌 CALEB ؛ ଓ

bro’s already part of the fam at this point. like as soon as he steps in, he's giving out mano to the titos and titas. your lola LOVES him.

every time he visits, someone asks him to fix their electric fan or their car. like hindi pa siya nakaka-upo, may tatlong pinsan na nakaabang with “kuya kuya tulong naman sa...”.

tito na lasing at 3 PM: "kaya mo bang lumipad ng lasing ha?"

caleb: "uh... hindi po advisable yun tito." (deadpan face pero polite pa rin 😭)

all the younger pinsans follow him around kasi "kuya caleb!! kuya caleb!! can you make a paper airplane?? kuyaaa!!!" 😭

the titas are already planning the wedding kahit kaka-meet pa lang niya sa family 😭💀 "sayang naman kung hindi mo papakasalan yan, ha!"

kuya caleb helping out sa handaan kahit hindi siya pinapagalaw, like girl he’s at the grill, checking the isaw like a pro

── 𐔌 XAVIER ؛ ଓ

literally nasa sulok buong party, nakasalampak sa isang plastic na monobloc chair

mukha na siyang inaantok kahit kakadating niyo pa lang 😭

"xavier gusto mo ba ng coke?"

xavier, barely awake: "sige po." (pero hindi naman niya iniinom kasi nakatulog na siya 😭)

may batang tatabi sa kanya tas makikitulog na rin siya doon 😭

titas are like "ay ang cute naman ng boyfriend mo pero... okay lang ba siya??"

"ganito lang po talaga siya." 😭

pagkatapos ng party ikaw yung nag-aalalay sa kanya habang half-asleep siya, tas mga tita mo: "pakasalan mo na yan para maalagaan mo siya forever!"

xavier, still half-asleep: "okay lang naman." (???)

── 𐔌 RAFAYEL ؛ ଓ

"painter ka???" – "oo po." – "nako, may pera ba dyan?"

then they find out na HE'S RICH AS HELL and they’re like "ahhhhhh ibang usapan na to!!" 😭

rafayel looking all pretty and composed in some crisp linen shirt tas yung mga titos like "anong medium mo? oil? acrylic?" (as if they know art)

then the titas see his hands, all stained with faint traces of paint, tas biglang "naku, artist talaga, alam mong hardworking!!"

rafayel looking slightly uncomfortable habang pinapalibutan siya ng curious titas but he’s smiling politely (pogi pa rin kahit awkward 😭)

one of the titas asks if he can paint her portrait, and he’s like "sure po" tapos yung buong barangay magpapalista na rin 😭

he brings some fancy dessert like "oh, i picked this up from paris last week." 😭 tas ur tita’s like "naku anak, ang swerte mo naman!!"

ur lola IMMEDIATELY asks "mayaman ba pamilya niya?" tas u gotta be like "lola…" 😭

one of the younger cousins asks him to draw something and he just… whips out a full art piece in like 10 mins?? tas the kids are losing their minds 😭

ur titas are hovering over his shoulder like "ang galing!! dapat ikaw na mag-design ng mga debut invitation!!"

he just quietly sits in a corner and sketches the chaos of the party. later u see the drawing and he’s drawn u laughing w ur family… AND UR HOLDING HIS HAND IN THE DRAWING??

── 𐔌 ZAYNE ؛ ଓ

the moment mo i-introduce as a doctor?? instant favoritism

"anong specialization mo?"

"ah cardiology po."

"NAKU YUNG TATAY KO MAY HYPERTENSION!! ZAYNE ANAK MAY CHECK UP KA BA BUKAS??"

titas already setting up an appointment na parang wala siyang sariling ospital 😭

tita baby: "alam mo pag doktor talaga, jackpot ka na dyan iha!!"

every convo with a tita goes like:

"Dok, anong mabisang gamot sa ano..."

"Dok, yung asawa ko may maintenance, ano pong maganda..."

kahit gusto niyang umupo in peace, ang ending may mini-consultation booth na siya sa tabi ng pancit bihon.

ended up giving free medical advice halfway through lunch 😭😭 "Uminom po kayo ng tubig, wag masyado sa chicharon ha… Ah, may maintenance meds po ba kayo?"

hindi na siya makalabas ng sala kasi may pila ng tito at tita na nagpapacheckup na parang clinic 💀

"Dok, may kilala ka bang pwedeng magpa-check ng blood pressure ng mura?"

super chill lang si zayne habang may batang humihila ng manggas niya asking him if he's a superhero 😭

nagbibigay ng medical advice sa tabi ng karaoke machine habang si tito jojo kinakanta yung "MY WAY" sa top volume tas walang pumipigil kasi baka magalit si tito 😭

after party: bigla mong maririnig sa isang tita "yung zayne na yun... dapat pakasalan mo na yun ha?"

11:49 || ༻`` 15 Apr 25 — Tuesday

The longer I've put off writing an update, the less I've been wanting to include in it, but I really don't want to abandon this blog and feel like I'm getting closer to it..

And thank you everyone that tagged me in any posts and games! Sorry for not following through with the tag (again 🥲)

So I'm off school today sick (missing 1 day of my art exam which I'll have to catch up on next week) and now that my stomach has stopped hurting, I'm thinking that it was actually a blessing in disguise; I've been praying to have a day with no one else in the house where I can catch up on work and clean and just get a good reset in because of how bad my habits and mental state has been. I do need to get started with work soon though.. But so far today I had watched 2 more episodes of Maid (absolutely love love love the series!), washed my hair, made my bed, and assembled a shrinky dink necklace for myself.

So my plan for the rest of the day is studying Chemsitry Unit 2 and AS Math statistics, ironing, cleaning my rooms some more, and finally journaling again (as I've been avoiding that too).

Day 38 clean

Day 0 but getting so much better!

Floor time ☑️

FLAMING EMBRACE

❥ First time wearing his clothes

Xavier・Zayne・Sylus・Caleb

✎ AN: Rafayel has requested the aid of Miss Bodyguard, but it's not for what you hastily prepare yourself for as your rush to stand by his side. Word count: 1.7 k Disclaimer: I cannot guarantee these are 100% compatible with the story and lore, I don’t have all cards and my memory only stretches so far.

⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆

❥ Rafayel: “Miss Bodyguard, I need you to accompany me on a hunt!” Rafayel’s voice is filled with desperation.

“Are there wanderers? I’m on my way!” You reply and quickly shove your phone into your back pocket. This seemed like the day to attempt breaking the record of how long it takes to get to Rafayel’s place. With your gun secure in its holster you quickly chart your course. 

You arrive at his house and push through the front door. It’s unlocked, but it usually is so it doesn’t offer any information as to what might meet you on the inside. The lack of noise makes your heart race. Why is it so quiet?

The place looks exactly like it usually does, paintbrushes, paper and other art supplies litter the floor. No trace of wanderers though… You search for the purple haired lemurian, maneuvering through paint and chalk like the room was a minefield. After safely crossing the room a splash of purple catches your eye through the large windows. Rafayel is at the beach carrying a portable easel and a large tub of paints and brushes. You study him through the window slightly confused by his behaviour. He walks back and forth with heavy steps and a deep frown on his face. Occasionally he starts assembling the easel, before stopping and resuming his aimless wandering. 

A thought suddenly hits you. He is not hunting wanderers, he’s hunting inspiration. You sigh and roll your eyes at the stupid artist you’ve grown to care so much for. Parting with your firearm you begin your journey to locate the merman at the beach.

Treading through the heavy sand you make your way over to Rafayel, he has not seen you yet and after moving in your direction for a while he suddenly spins back around retracing his own steps. You pick up the pace as you try to catch up with him.

“Rafayel!” You call out as he keeps moving further and further away from you.

“Huh?” His panicked gaze finds yours and relief seems to wash over him. He drops his art supplies in the sand and quickly moves toward you.

“Oh, Miss Bodyguard, are you here to rescue me? Finally! I’ve been waiting.” He pulls you in for a hug that catches you slightly off guard. It takes a few seconds for your mind to register what is happening but you slowly begin rubbing soothing circles into his back.

“You have no idea what I’ve been through these past few days. Thank you for coming to save me, cutie.” You can’t help but smile at the nickname he has so lovingly bestowed upon you.

“Rafayel, I don’t know how to help you. When you called I assumed you were talking about wanderers.” He backs away but keeps his hands attached to your shoulders.

“This is far worse than wanderers. I haven’t been able to complete a painting in far too long. I’m bursting with creativity, but nothing inspires me. I feel like I’m going to explode!” His exaggerated voice tells a tale of immense pain and suffering. Of course he had earned your pity.

“What do you need me to do Rafayel? I’m all yours.” This man is ridiculous, yet his charms are hard to resist. Impossible even. 

“Walk with me, cutie. Be my muse and guide me through my misery.” The back of his hand is dramatically placed on his forehead as he pretends to faint into your arms. A desperate squeal escapes you whilst you use all your strength to steady him. Thankfully he assists you in preventing a total collapse. You both chuckle as he smiles up at you nuzzled into your chest.

You pick up Rafayel’s supplies and follow him around the beach like a kitten looking for food. 

The brushes are still clean, the paper is still white and after about thirty minutes of walking further and further away from Rafayel’s house you’ve got to put your foot down.

“Rafayel, let’s end our search for the day. It’s getting late.”

“Are you giving up? What if you were hunting wanderers right now, would you stop mid battle because the sun was setting? I don’t think so.”

“Perhaps hunting for inspiration is not the way to go, maybe it has to find you?”

“Trying to sound poetic? Your sudden burst of cleverness will not deter me from my mission.” 

The sudden crash of thunder in the distance startles you both as you notice the quickly darkening skies above. Rafayel lets out a defeated breath as he sulks into your shoulder.

“I don’t mind the rain, personally. However I doubt my sketchbook feels the same way.” You lightly flick his protruding bottom lip and remind him that you aren’t waterproof either. He takes the easel out of your grasp and you embark on the journey home.

You don’t get very far before the rain starts, soft at first but it doesn’t take long before it’s pouring down. The wet sand splashes up your legs as your pace quickens. You clutch Rafayel’s sketchbook close to your chest, hunching over as you run hoping to protect it from the water. 

Finally outside Rafayel’s house you follow him through one of the open windows and retreat from the rain. Once you’ve had a chance to catch your breath you take a moment to inspect the sketchbook you so diligently tried to protect. The bottom corners seem to have taken some damage and you can’t help but feel disappointed in yourself. 

“Are you ok?” He questions, taking in your saddened expression.

“I tried to save it…” He looks at the book in your hand and takes it from you to inspect it himself. Flipping through the pages you notice a few of the colorful pictures have smudged. 

“I like it. They’re more abstract and emit more emotion than I was able to convey. These drawings hold memories now.” He gives you a genuine and reassuring smile leaving the book open on a nearby table. Leaning forward you take a peek at the artwork. The rain turned the early sunset hues into a magical mist flowing over the calm ocean. It was actually really pretty. 

“C’mon, let me make you a warm drink.” He snakes an arm around your shoulders and gives you another heartwarming smile.

“I should probably head home. I’m soaked.”

“I’m sorry, cutie. Since I caused this problem, let me be the one to fix it too.”

You let him guide you to his bathroom where he grabs a thick, fluffy bathrobe and hands it to you. Accepting his offer of fixing your problem you gladly take the robe. He exits the room and gives you privacy to change. This was exactly what you needed. The cold rain still lingers on your skin, but the familiar warmth of Rafayel embraces you overpowering any unpleasant remains. You can’t help but laugh at the splashes of paint covering the long sleeves. He must use this robe fairly regularly. Wiping off the leftover mascara under your eyes you exit the bathroom to rejoin Rafayel. 

Rafayel enters the room with a small glass bowl filled with grapes. He is also wearing a bathrobe, but it doesn’t look as soft as the one you’re wearing. It is also covered in far less paint. Two mugs filled with warm liquid rest on a tray safely placed onto a rug in front of the dark fireplace. He gives you a quick glance before positioning himself on the floor. His attempt at hiding his smile was completely useless as his cheeks and ears turned a bright red. 

“You coming?” He asks and reaches for one of the cups before offering it to you. You take the bait and join him on the floor.

Rafayel pulls and tugs at his robe but is clearly not able to make it fit how he wants it to. Annoyed sounds flow out of him like a wild river, taking away the serenity of the once calm room.

“Are you ok?” You question when one of his tugs accidentally nudges your mug.

“Yeah, I’m fiiine. I just don’t like this robe.” He pouts as he gives up trying to make the robe fit better. He places his arms on the floor to hold himself up.

“Why are you wearing it if you don’t like it?”

“Cause someone else is wearing my favorite one.” The pink blush creeps back onto his face and you bite your lip attempting to cover a ridiculous smile threatening to make an appearance. 

“Why did you give me your favorite? I would have been fine with the one you’re wearing.” You listen for his reply, but it comes out in such a quiet mumble you can’t make out the words.

“Huh?”

“I gave you my favorite, cause you are my favorite.” He blurts out, embarrassed and annoyed at having to make his confession twice. Unsure of how to respond you simply move closer to him wrapping one of your arms around his.

“We should have lit the fire before sitting down, where do you keep your matches?” As you’re about to get up from the floor he quickly grabs your sleeve keeping you seated.

“Oh, cutie, are you forgetting who I am?” Rafayel laughs and lights the fire with a flick of his wrist.

You sigh, slightly disappointed in yourself as you give Rafayel an apologetic look. He chuckles before focusing his gaze on the bright pink flames. You shuffle closer to him and nuzzle into his side as he supports you with an arm on the floor behind you. The weight of his head landing on top of yours tells you he is just as relaxed as you are. The room remains unusually quiet.

“Are you still cold?” He questions when he notices you tugging at the bathrobe to pull it further over your body.

“Not really, I’m just getting extra comfortable.”

“Oh, don’t get too comfortable. The flames remind me of a rushing waterfall fighting its way down a rough cliffside. I’m going to need you to gather my paintbrushes, Miss Bodyguard. This is getting serious.” 

You move away just enough to shoot him a grumpy glare. Rafayel chuckles when he sees your expression and simply nudges your head back onto his shoulder. A few gentle strokes are left on your cheek before his arm returns to support the other holding the weight of your tired bodies.

⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆

✎ AN: Rafayel is so annoyingly cute! I must admit that I fight a constant internal battle to determine how I feel about this man…However I will undoubtably come to the conclusion that I love him. English is not my first language, so I hope you'll cut me some slack.

OMG hi!! First of all—your art?? Literal perfection?? I’ve been following since like… your third post (I think??) and I scream a little every time I see you upload. ANYWAY I was wondering!! How do you do your shading?? Like what brushes? What app?? How many layers are we talking?? I’m nosy and also in awe and trying to learn from the gods pls help

AWE IT MAKES ME SO HAPPY TO KNOW MY ART CAN MAKE SOMEONE SQUEAL AND KICK THEIR LEGS XD!♡ have a little sketch as a thank you 🫴

Ok- I'm so relieved to finally have someone to teach the little things I've learned over the years! ! Everything under the cut!✂️

●A big thing I think with doing shadow and lighting comes from understanding your art style, there's actually a lot of different ways to shade or highlight, and sometimes the way can match the style! With me, if I'm doing traditional drawing on paper, I'll either go realistic with shading or I'll do cross-hatching, basically a bunch of scratches where shadow should be, search it up, it's interesting to see the different types of shading!

●With my current art style on digital, I actually don't do much shadow! It's a bunch of layers of highlights! And only in places where I think it's of extreme need for shadow, I'll do a light layer of shadow! (These places being places like under the head where the neck starts, under the arms, where skin touches skin or something, and just little crevices here and there.)

● For the app I use: I use Sketchbook! I've used this app for over three years now maybe? And I've yet to find a better one, I love this app! And for the highlights and shadows, I'll actually use one of the sharper edged brushes, like one of the ink pens, instead of using a brush with a faded or soft edge, but this changes for highlights if I change my style, the shadows usually stay sharp!

●And lastly, for number of layers I end up with- the max of layers I usually end up with is around 3-4 layers! One for the line art, one for the basic color, one for (sometimes) both highlights and shadows, so that I can erase a tweak them without having to worry about messing up the color, and one for any more effects, like making the eyes glow or something!

OK! That's it I think- You don't know how flattering it is to have someone come to you for advice, you make me feel like it looks like I know what I'm doing lol! :')

AND HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY/NIGHT!!

[momoiro-hime]

i await to hear your weird dreams o7 you have until december 1st!!

[surreal-duck]

midoyuzu is canon to me because of you

thank you anon..... im doing my part.... still havent recovered from the dream live interaction they had so heres doodles from last year of that. i cant believe they did that

on a separate note ive been kinda having mixed feelings regarding enst as a whole and while i dont think ill stop like. making/interacting w fanwork and such ill most likely step back a bit as well. even if it isnt new the racist shit that happyele's pulling really does suck ass, the fact im also really fond of akatsuki myself aside im sure its doubly worse for lots of other fans

[turqo]

[what-am-i-doing-in-this-fandom]

Heya! I absolutely LOVED the art you drew of 'Pyramid Scheme' aka Stan and Pyramid Steve, kinda curious- how would you feel about me writing an ao3 fanfic based on the art you drew? I'm quite inspired, and my interest has been piqued! Just asking, because that piece right there is my MUSE. ✨✨

Ahhhhhh, feel free to write whatever fanfiction you please‼️‼️ Just make sure to let me know when it's posted so I can read it!!!

I can't believe you took enough inspiration from my drawing to want to write a whole fic though, it's genuinely an honor, thank you 😭🙏

[xxplastic-cubexx]

BIRTHDAY HAUL courtesy of a very lovely friend of mine 🥺

bonus goofy pics of a bday snack i had earlier with my favorite menace …..

[mossy-paws]

600 followers! (What is UP with you guys + small announcement in tags!)

WOW. OKAY THAT IS INSANE. Well guys, holy shit! 600 followers is absolutely fucking insane and I was not expecting to hit this milestone so quickly- I STILL do not have a singular plan for any sort of special or whatnot, but I do defintely want to thank you all a lot, this is a MASSIVE milestone and I’m so happy I managed to make it :3!

for this, i think I’ll be answering all the super old asks in my askbox that I’ve been wanting to answer for months now, these will include doodle req’s too (ONLY ONES I HAVE IN MY BOX NOW. NO MORE. I HAVE LIKE 20 ALREADY LMAO ANY NEW ONES WILL BE IGNORED LOLLLL) + I’m making a little fun low effort comic already so I’ll be working on that too for this occasion :3! I think people will like it a lot, it’s a chainsaw man x Ultrakill shitpost comic that’s ENTIRELY self-indulgent because I got the idea and couldn’t get it out of my head.

that plus I have some gifts coming up, (@sillymeowiixx you better watch your fucking back I am going to SPOIL you /vsilly) + I also have some cosplay stuff that’s gonna be worked on very very soon! Just be sure to keep an eye out for it all :3!
