CW(?) slight horror imagery in the third pic
This is me trying to practice drawing the trio in the most flip floppy art style way to prepare myself for when I draw.. a specific au… mwehehehe.
Waiter! Waiter! More wtvr tf light & L got going on in that last one!!
Edit: I made more down below
Human shinigamis added to the roster. The OG design or the human design of Ryuk is banger but idk if I’ll keep it the same as it, cuz it doesn’t fully fit the Ryuk we know so who knows, may change his design.
Bottom centre of L & Light r inspired from a ff scene I may or may not make fanart for… also yassssss Misa & Rem yaasssss one sided yuri maybe who knows.. just play Chappell roan already

"Love is a curse."
His mother had spat the words down into her glass of wine when Steve was 14, just after he admitted to having a crush on a girl in his class. He never mentioned loving her. He'd only spoken to her a few times and he thought the way she smiled and twirled her hair was cute. He'd hoped his mother would share in his excitement; it was his first real crush, after all.
But she wouldn't even look at him. She scowled down into her emptying glass and said. "Don't waste your time, Steven."
Steve should have expected as much from her, she's always been a bitter, sad woman. Every night she stumbled around the house, glass of wine in one hand, a cigarette in the other, as she listed off all the things she could be doing if she hadn't fallen in love with his dad, if she hadn't of had Steve.
"Love ruined me." She'd wail and whine, the sound echoing around the house and reaching Steve in his room.
He never understood how she could hate love so much.
All the stories he's read and movies he's watched all depict love as this bright, wondrous thing, not as the dark, soul crushing beast his mother depicts it as. Love is supposed to be soft and sweet, it's supposed to be gentle touches and shy smiles, it's first dates and first kisses. It's everything Steve wants.
He wants so badly to be in love, to be loved, to prove his mother wrong.
He knows that when he finally falls in love, it will be the best thing that's ever happened to him and he'll be able to look his mother in the eye and say, "You were wrong."
Except, years later, Steve finally learns that she wasn't wrong. It is a curse. It sinks its dark claws into you and rips you apart when you least expect it.
Steve comes to realise this in the upside down. He finally understands that love hurts. It rips you apart and leaves you dry heaving up parts of your heart. It makes you cradle someone you love, someone you thought you would have a life with, in your arms as they bleed out everywhere. "Eddie, no, please." His heart is in sharp little pieces as he rocks Eddie's lifeless body, bits of his broken heart stab him from within and cause him to scream and shout and beg whatever god that was listening to fix this, to bring his friend, his love, back. But no one is listening.
He never thought love would hurt like this, never thought he'd feel the ache his mother wailed about.
Never thought he'd agree with her.
But he whispers the same words she'd spat at him all those years ago to himself days later as he watches the empty coffin slowly lower into the ground.
"Love is a curse."

SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP
welcome to episode one of a new series where i slowly kill myself via epic the musical. this is going to be so fucking good.
started off strong with just a man. boi did that forever rewrite my brain chemistry. beautiful animation btw, amazing work @gigizetz
today i learned that im a sucker for overlapping harmonies and register changes (i think thats what theyre called??) like if u want my heart forever sing interwoven layers and motifs and alternate between high and low and i will be yours, a crying mess at your feet.
anyway yes this will take over me briefly (famous last words yes i know, but im serious i have an exam on sunday. sunday evening we return to mutiny) so until then
