previous / masterlist / next

it was late at night and you're exhausted but happy after your first visit with kazuki. currently, you're in a nice deep sleep back in your room and satoru is still wide awake as he watches you sleep.

his body was situated on the chair and he decided to remove his blindfold just to observe your peaceful sleeping face with the blue moonlight shining upon you. you're beautiful even if you're pale.

a silent deep sigh escalated on his lips, he was still stuck in his deep thoughts about you and your son. satoru couldn't erase your happy face and the sensation of kazuki's small fingertips away from his mind, it all felt so…surreal.

a ringtone exploded on his phone. upon seeing the name, he sucked up a breath and decided to go outside your room for a moment just to call the name on his phone.

“i told you to stop communicating with me anymore.” there's a hint of venom in his voice the moment the other line was picked up.

satoru only hears a slight shuffling but he knew she was there because he can also hear some shaky breaths. “yukie…please know that you and i are now over.”

yukie, not many people know this female since her rank was only at grade 3 but to satoru—she’s the third party, or in simplest words, his mistress. yukie michiga is a beautiful woman with a nice body and a head-turning face. her life was average since she didn't have enough strength yet to rise her rank and get more missions to gain salary but it was enough to sustain her family of six.

she also grew up in a well-oriented family. she was the oldest among her three other younger siblings and she's a very responsible daughter, sister, and as a sorcerer. everyone in her little village adores her and even supports her when she flies to kyoto just to become a sorcerer.

to say the best, she's a woman of all. yukie was beautiful, kind, dependent, and very hardworking.

she and satoru met during his mission when yukie was seen killing some lower grade curses to protect some civilians in an abandoned park. satoru was amazed by her braveness and determination to save those souls despite not being paid enough. but what caught his attention the most was her alluring figure and that angelic face card.

after finishing his mission, he approached the girl who immediately recognized him because of his reputable name. they both introduced their names and even went on a date to get to know each other. and that moment they knew, they were attracted to each other. she even couldn't believe that she was seeing the strongest sorcerer in this current generation.

however, yukie had soon found out that satoru has a wife after their fifth date when she saw a wedding photo on his phone and your contact number literally named ‘wife’. she may be attracted to the guy but she values her dignity and she respects you as a woman even though she hadn't even meet you properly.

despite being heartbroken, she confronted satoru about it and demanded they should stop seeing each other despite her growing love towards him, because yukie would rather be alone than to be hidden behind someone's husband. but satoru did not allow her because he's too caught up in a moment and he finds his needs on the girl.

after some crying and begging, yukie finds herself being ruled by love and lets herself stoop so low just to be with satoru. she was convinced by his charm and now she's so drunk in love. yukie already destroyed herself by having an affair with a married man, so her fighting him to be complete hers will no longer do damage for what's already done.

“let's just forget everything that happened between us.” now what? after what yukie had sacrificed for this affair, he's now letting her go?

a scoffing was received and then followed by a shaky chuckle. “that easily? you're letting me go that easily after you literally just devoted yourself to me two weeks ago?” yukie was trying her best not to snap yet, it's too early for that.

satoru ran a hand on his face. “i'm sorry, but this is not right anymore.”

“oh so you've just realized it just now? after what? after you've finally decided to be a oh-so-good husband and think that you could've fixed everything? you're making me cry by laughing.” the woman did not even realize that she was gripping her phone so hard that her knuckles turned white.

“just say what you want.”

“you. i want you, satoru. i couldn't bear the fact that you're just leaving me so easily after what you had promised me last year.”

“but yukie, you know i'm still married and—”

“then divorce her just like you said before!” tears started to pool on her eyes as yukie was getting and sounded more desperate to save her relationship with the man.

“...i can't,” satoru whispered quietly.

“why?! because you're becoming a coward of the higher up—”

”because i don't want to anymore! i am aware that i'm such a bad person to my wife and i cannot change the past anymore. but i'm very willing to change for the present and the future, just for the sake of my family.” his words cause her to feel like everything stops, that specifically includes her heavy and enraged breathing.

what did he just say? fucking ridiculous.

“look yukie, i'm so sorry for cutting you off like this and thank you for everything that you have done to me. but please, let's just end it here.” satoru continued.

on the other line, yukie was sitting on her bed with tears completely spilling down on her eyes and her emotions were overflowing. their memories together keeps on flooding in her mind as the female tries to collect herself so she could find a quick answer to save this illicit affair.

“satoru, you're such a fucking dick for playing with many women's heart just so you can satisfy yourself. and then what happened to us that you once played with? what happened to those who got us wrapped around your finger? fucking nothing! you left us all hanging!” her voice started from low and went up to loud. satoru would've never understood a woman's rage because their rages are a good disguise of just being angry.

if only he knew what the current scenario is playing in her head, it can make the strongest shiver.

“yukie…i'm sorry but it's not like that—”

“it is! and here i thought i was special among all of the women you slept with. i thought i could be a better partner for you. i even lowered my dignity just to be with a married person!” for once, she finally felt pity for what she had become. if she could ever face her former self, she would hug her tight and say, ‘there is no turning back’.

and that is the reason why she said, “take responsibility for this.”

“w-what?”

“i said take responsibility for this! you made me crazy over you and i cannot let you go! so be responsible and leave your wife—”

“no!” satoru could not help but to yell back. he wanted nothing in this relationship anymore. he swore to himself that he is going to try his best to fix this marriage and that starts with him and his mistress, yukie.

meanwhile, yukie could feel the churching effect of rage deep down on her stomach when she realized that he is serious about cutting her off. he finally decided to stop being a pathetic dickhead and started to devote himself into your circle.

“fine! if you don't want to, then i’ll make you.”

the strongest eyes widened as he could smell danger at her literal threat. he also felt like a cold water bucket being showered on his body when he thought of any unpleasant possibilities that she could execute on you and his child.

“o-oh no you're not.” he gritted his teeth.

yukie laughed crazily, her eyes twitching in the process. “i will. you made me like this, satoru. so face the consequences and be accountable for the person you've made me.”

“yukie—”

“i am going to be your karma and you cannot run away or hide from me. don't you ever try to run away because i’ll make sure of it.” with a final hostile, the woman ended the call, making satoru almost lose his sanity.

“yukie?! h-hello…?! yukie? fuck!”

satoru was on the verge of throwing his phone across the hallway. he felt enraged, scared, devastated, and all. he knew what are the capabilities of yukie—like he literally witness his mistress beat the shit out of that other woman he once mingle with before her just because she's getting jealous.

what more could she do to his wife…and worse, his child?!

his body almost launched itself on the nearest wall due to his knees feeling weak. satoru was not scared of what yukie had planned for himself because he could literally take her even in his sleep, yukie was practically defenseless against him. but if his family was involved? it's gonna be the literal end of him.

he's the superman and his family is the kryptonite—his weakness.

“fuck. what did i get myself into…” satoru hopelessly buried his face into his shaky hands. he's afraid that he had done another unforgivable sin that you would probably not be going to spare him anymore.

but, you wouldn't have done that if you didn't know. so, guess who needs to keep their mouth shut? everyone.

the night had passed and satoru didn't even sleep a single wink. his conversation with yukie just kept on ringing into his head and deprived him from the attention. like right now, you have been calling him three times in a row but he's too busy to look at an empty space below. you reach for his arm to give him a gentle shake. satoru could feel someone nudging him and he knew it was you.

“sorry, what were you saying again?” he sighs deeply before forcing himself to give you a not-so forced smile.

a worried frown appears in your face. “you should go back to the jujutsu high. you really need to rest, i’ll be fine in here.”

“i can still manage this. don't worry.” satoru assured you, and you didn't buy it of course. “i'm not asking you if you can or not. i just said you should head back at least for now.” you said.

“but—”

“satoru, don't be stubborn.” your expression becomes more serious, making satoru fall quietly because he knew that he would eventually listen to you.

“it has been three days since and you hadn't even met your students properly. just go, satoru. you can always come back here during your free time. kazuki and i can wait for you.” you added.

“a-are you sure?”

you nodded and just gave him an assuring pat on his arm. “very. now go and do your thing.”

satoru was left with no choice but to obey, in which he did. he also thinks that this could also be an appropriate moment to confront the threat, by the threat means, his mistress.

“i’ll just leave after lunch. i need to make sure you are well fed.”

“alright.”

the rest of the morning was normally fine. you've watched something on your phone to keep yourself entertained while satoru was dozing off in his seat. his head keeps on uncomfortably dropping, so you decide to offer him a space in your bed in which he hesitantly agrees after you've persuaded him enough.

and now, he's currently sleeping quietly beside you while you are seated and continue watching your show. you would also occasionally steal a glance at him because he's really odd today, like something was bothering him. you know it's not because he's lack of sleep, but it was something else and that itches you to ask him.

then lunch came. satoru was still sleeping so you took this cue to get food yourself by ordering some healthy options available on the app, and sooner, the food came just right by your doorstep. you thanked the delivery man who really made an effort to travel up until here to your room. so, you also give him a nice tip, in which he smiles happily in return.

stealing another peak at your sleeping husband, you've decided to quietly remove yourself from the bed just to prepare the food on the table.

meanwhile, satoru stirred up in his sleep after sensing a weight suddenly vanished from the comfort of the bed. slowly opening his blue powerful eyes, he saw you standing not so far away from the bed and was busy unboxing the ordered food.

he looked at the wall clock across the room and it showed its way past lunch. that alone made him jerk up his body because he slept and you had to do the food by yourself.

“you ordered some food?” you replied to him with a hum and continued doing your work.

“you should've woken me up.” satoru frowns but you just shrugged it off.

“it's okay. you were resting and you need it obviously. besides, the delivery man was very kind to deliver it here if you're worried about me moving too much.”

satoru let this one slide and sat on the bed as he watched you hand him his food as he eats on the bed while you take a seat and eat on the small table. even in different settings, you two still don't share a table for a meal together. it's not like it matters that much, but it finally bothers him.

“what are your plans this afternoon?” satoru asked you after he took a spoonful of bite.

“visit kazuki, of course.” you simply answered.

a little bit of awkward silence engulfed the two of you. satoru was finding a way to crack up a long conversation with you, while you're still itching to ask him a question about what's bothering him. but to clarify things up, you actually don't care about what could be the reason behind it. you're just bothered because he looks bothered and it's bothering you!

“do you want me to send shoko so you can keep company?”

you immediately shook your head at his suggestion. “no, no. shoko is a busy person and has a lot more important things to do. and besides, kazuki could keep me company. i also need to walk his birth papers as suggested by the doctor.”

“about that, do you want me to—”

“it’s okay, satoru. i can manage doing it alone.” you don't mean to sound like you're stripping his rights from your son, but you really wanted to do this on your own. the two of you are still working on an unspoken term and you don't want your broken marriage to affect your baby's pre-life even by the simple act.

actually, you've noticed to yourself that you're becoming a little too soft on satoru. so, you would always remind yourself about the things he had done but also to remind yourself to be less harsh towards the man because at the end of the day, you are forced to be the leading mature in this circle.

you had to subside some of your emotion now that a baby has entered the scene and you would give everything just to have kazuki a bestest life he could live in. and that includes swallowing your pride and being with satoru a little longer than what should have been expected.

“i have a small favor, by the way.” satoru perk up at your words.

“go on.” he said and paid utmost attention to you. you've rarely made a request to him so he needs to make sure he got everything covered.

“nanami…if you ever saw him, tell him to come and visit me.”

nanami?

satoru tries not to frown when you suddenly look for him. it's not like he feels weird or anything since you two are good old friends, but rather why you can't just text him. anyway, he didn't ask you and just kept your little favor in his mind.

“sure, i will.”

and with that, the whole lunch for the day comes to an end and satoru goes back to the jujutsu high and tries to do his usual teaching activities.

satoru did what you said, he told nanami to visit you but he disobeyed when you said to do his daily task as a teacher and a sorcerer. to clarify some things, he did meet up with his students but that's it. he didn't teach nor oversee them on their training. he just told them that principal yaga will continue to handle them for the meantime then flew off the scene.

and guess where he's off to? yeah, his mistress.

a harsh knock surfaced on the wood as satoru continues to call out a specific name who won't even show a sign of response. he knows yukie was there due to him being able to detect her cursed energy but she didn't even acknowledge his presence.

“yukie please, let's talk this out and stay away from my family.” he hates to do this but he implies a pleading and desperation in his voice just for the sake of avoiding the rotten aftermath.

on the other side, yukie was seated on her sofa while still pretending that the consistent knocking or visitor didn't even exist. she'll only entertain the man and let him in if he would approach her as the satoru gojo who she willing to throw her life away just to be with him, not satoru gojo who would throw her life away just to be with you.

“yukie, please…open this door. let me talk to you.” biting her lower lip in despair, yukie swore that she really tried her best to stay strong and wouldn't just crumble over the sound of a pleading man, but guess she just was just making a fool out of herself.

“fuck it.” with a one swore, the woman finally found herself opening the door and revealed the white haired man she's been dying to see. yukie couldn't contain herself anymore, so as soon as her eyes landed on her most prized possession, she pulled him into a messy kiss as she pulled him inside.

but to her melancholia, she was dumb to think that he's going to reply to her with the same passion and love over the kiss. satoru pulled her away from him and didn't even kiss her back!

something inside yukie cracked as she looked at satoru with a broken heart. tears are pooling on her eyes but satoru wouldn't even bat an eye on her now pleading figure.

from his point of view, satoru wiped his lips in disgust as he could smell and taste alcohol in her breath. she's clearly drunk and wasted but still in the right place to talk.

“is our conversation on the phone not enough? when are you going to plant it on your head that i'm not planning to let you go?” yukie whispers as she buries her face into his chest, hoping that he would at least soften his heart and come back to her.

“you have to, yukie. it's time for us to correct the mistakes we both made.” satoru wrapped his arms around her waist, maybe this would calm her down and the conversation would at least become less aggressive.

“your mistake, satoru, not mine.” satoru went silent and yukie knew she was right. she thinks it's only his fault that led her this way, it could've also been avoided when yukie once confronted satoru about you but he's too imbecile to see the aftermath. now look where we are, there's no turning back now.

“is your wife now aware of this, huh?” satoru shook his head, there's no way he's gonna let you know about this. his space in your heart is now barely surviving, he doesn't want to take the risk yet.

“just tell me, what do you want me to do so you can let me go?”

yukie smiled lovesick-ly. “nothing. i told you, i am going to make you mine, and i'm gonna show you how i'm gonna do it.”

shit. this is bad. i’m really doomed.

satoru shoved away with terror and anger in his blue hue orbs. “yukie, don't make me break the rules. you stay out of my family's life.” he pointed a finger towards the female.

clearly, she doesn't give a fuck.

then suddenly, yukie pulled him towards the couch and kissed him aggressively and against his will. satoru knew he would be dead, dead by his guilt that he kissed those lips that he swore he wouldn't touch again.

“yukie, stop—! mmph!” satoru, being literally the strongest, tried his best but it's too late. his eyes could see black spots dancing around his vision, but before it totally went dark, he saw a devilish smile on yukie’s face and then everything suddenly vanished.

turns out, when yukie pulled him into a second kiss, she forcefully put a pill of drug into his mouth and made him swallow unwillingly. satoru may be immune to dark curses but he's no exemption to curse of love.

satoru was unable to move, and yukie, she was smiling ever so widely with hearts in her eyes as she started lovingly at the love of her life.

“fuck, you belong to no one else but mine.”

yukie was overly and beyond happy, that's the fact. she finally has him in his arms, she's so proud that she got the literally the strongest in her embrace—what could possibly be wrong?

yukie michiga, the one who participated in adultery, was about to drag satoru gojo, the one who initiated adultery, while she laughed to herself as she thought about things on her bucket list when she finally made him hers.

but then suddenly, the front door blasted as debris and dust floated around the air and served as a blanket to the destroyer.

“what the fuck?!” yukie hugged satoru's unconscious body possessively while coughing due to the wall dust she's inhaling. she couldn't pinpoint who would do such a thing at her precious house because of the fog.

but when it lifted up, it revealed someone, the one who is the victim of adultery, along with somebody, the one who hates adultery. both were wearing the deadliest expression you could ever see, it is raging with anger, especially someone.

“yeah, what the fuck?!” someone mocked her little curse a while ago making yukie freeze in horror. she knows that person well—very, very well. who wouldn't know her when she's the reason why she keeps on hiding in the depths of their shadow.

yukie's wavering eyes met the other pair of eyes. it was sharp, filled with dagger—those eyes were skinning her alive.

“what the fuck are you doing to my husband, yukie michiga?”

PLS READ THIS, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT AND IS PART OF THE MIND OVER MATTER

My best friend just moved out to an apartment for university and he asked me if I could be turned into his toilet since it broke at a party, do you think it would be possible?

Nate hosted a wild party at his apartment the university provided. It really was a blast. As he was cleaning up, he noticed that his toilet was completely busted. No one could ever use it again. He needed a new toilet fast. There was another party the following night. There wasn't enough to get a new toilet and have it installed. He needed a quick fix and fast. He dialed his best friend Winston. "I need your help. I need a new toilet today for my place. Would you mind assisting me?" He asked.

Winston didn't know how he could help. "How can I help, bro?" He asked back.

"I need to borrow you as my toilet. It would just be for a few days. Will you help me?" Nate asked back, hoping he would say yes.

"Sure, anything to help you. Just for a few days, though. What happened to your previous toilet?" Winston asked back, curious as to why he needed a whole new toilet.

"It got destroyed during my party, but don't worry. You won't be destroyed for sure. I will make sure you are indestructible." Nate added. He was relieved to know that his best friend would be by there in a few hours

Several hours later, Nate led Winston to his bathroom. He help take the old toilet out to be trashed. Nate told Winston to stand exactly where the old toilet was. With a flash from his phone, Nate had a new toilet.

Nate added indestructible to the transformation so that his best friend wouldn't suffer the fate of the previous toilet. "Thanks, bro. I really appreciate this. I have a party tomorrow and I needed a new one." He paused. He thought he should see if his new toilet would work just as fine as his old one. He unzipped his pants and pissed into the toilet bowl. He flushed it and saw it was working just fine. "Awesome, you are a good toilet. Anyway, I have to finish getting my place ready." He spoke and left Winston alone in the bathroom.

Winston didn't know what to think as he swallowed all the piss that Nate poured into him. He was hoping he didn't taste any of it, but all of his senses were still intact. Piss tasted disgusting. He now realized what his fate was. The thought that another party was tomorrow made him realize this might not have been too smart of an idea.

The next night, Winston was in a nightmare. Multiple guys came and pissed in his mouth, completely unaware of the living toilet. It got worse as some of the party guests had too much to drink. They puked into the toilet bowl and flushed it. Sometimes, they didn't even bother to clean up the toilet before leaving. A couple even did a #2 in him. He was treated like a common toilet. Even his best friend used him several times without even speaking to him. He was seen as just a toilet. He wondered how long the party would go on.

The next morning, Nate got up to clean up his place. He had three times as many guests as the other night prior. He quickly went to check on Winston. Amazingly, the toilet was intact. The durability feature really worked. He cleaned up the toilet and did a #2 before flushing it. He showered and started cleaning up his place from the damage of the party. He thought he would change Winston back to normal. He looked through his phone on the TF Ray app. He found he made a mistake the previous night. He was slightly drunk that he erased the revert option on the latest transformation. There was no way to change him back. He was permanently a toilet.

Nate thought about telling Winston the truth of his fate, but that would be too heart ranching. He decided it was better just to treat him as just what he was now, a toilet.

iris is missing bachira again, what else is new!!

in the limited amount of time you'd spent with bachira meguru, you learned that, with the exception of soccer, his attention span was shorter than a toddler's.

he was always fiddling with something at the outskirts of your vision, spinning a pencil or rolling a rectangular eraser back and forth. a closer look revealed an assortment of little drawings at the corners and headings of his notebook pages: little butterflies, trees, flowers, rockets, fish, and anything more you could possibly think of. you sat in the seat closest to the aisle where the teacher walked through during worktimes, and you developed the habit of tapping his side of the lab table when she started getting too close. bachira would then flip to whatever page he was supposed to be completing and put on the appearance of working hard, murmuring his gratitude when the teacher passed.

it was during a lecture about aquatic ecosystems when the first bachira doodle swam its way into your notebook. you didn't notice it at first, too focused on the presentation to see his hand quickly scribble on your paper before retreating like nothing happened. but, when you finally had a second to look down and see a fish swimming next to a crudely drawn piece of coral, the tiniest smile when you looked at bachira's face was a dead giveaway. you added your own stalk of seaweed to the picture and his smile only grew larger when you slid the paper over to show him.

over time, drawings began to include questions, questions turned to full messages, and full messages became gossip and complaints that were exchanged without any spoken words. his favorite thing to scribble was we won the game, btw :D because you never failed to giggle at his terribly drawn soccer ball next to the smiley face. his most frequently asked question, however, was a tossup between what tf are we learning and i'm so hungry. he was a distraction in class, yes, but a welcome one when you needed someone to lighten a dark mood.

you found that his bored tendencies rubbed off on you, as you were itching to write something one day when the teacher had explicitly instructed you to watch the documentary without taking notes. bachira knew that you had a hard time remembering things if you didn't write them down, and his solution startled you.

"it's okay, just write on me!" he beamed at you as he whispered over the movie playing on the projector. "you let me do it all the time, so let me return the favor."

"i let you do it because none of your pens are permanent, bachira. it's also just doodles, not full sentences," you point out, a blister starting to form on the inside of your fingers as you spin your pen. "mine are a little harder to wash off, trust me."

"as long as you don't draw a dick on my face, i really don't care," he shrugs and you scoff as he's rolling up his sleeve and presenting you his blank forearm. "your canvas awaits." seeing the hesitancy on your face, he nods encouragingly and takes the liberty of drawing a very shaky smiley face on the side of his thumb. "your turn!"

for the remainder of class, bachira's chin rests in his palm with his elbow propped on the table, his other arm extended to you as you jot down whatever you want to remember for later. bachira watches you more than he does the video, memorizing the way you bite your tongue when you're thinking and the way your eyes light up when you figure out how to paraphrase a thought. it's endearing and an odd fluttering feeling occurs in his chest as you look over at him with a grateful smile. at the end of the period, you draw a heart on the inside of his wrist before rushing off to your next subject, still expressing your thanks as you push in your chair.

later, bachira brushes off his teammates when they ask why he has pen stains all over his arm; he says he didn't have time to scrub it before the game.

---

the blue lock players begin to notice an odd habit of bachira's, a sort of ritual right before every match. he rolls up his uniform's long-sleeve until just enough of his wrist is showing, and draws something on the inside of his wrist. with the cap of the marker between his teeth, bachira obviously struggles to draw with his non-dominant hand but declines assistance when isagi offers.

when he kisses the heart on the inside of his wrist before scoring every goal, he hopes that you can feel it's for you, with a promise that he'll be back to you soon.

if you enjoy my writing and would like to support me, you can buy me a coffee on my ko-fi! you can also check out my full masterlist here :)

just finished the umbrella academy. rant & spoilers incoming:

let me get this shit straight: the hargreeves siblings didn’t ask for their powers or to be born. said birth and powers were forced on them when reginald hargreeves couldn’t just shut up and die with the rest of his planet/wife. then he flies down to earth, adopts them all, and some 30 years later, we find them running around, constantly trying to save the world from an apocalypse, only to eventually find out that the apocalypses are happening not because this random fucking alien unleashed sparkle dust on the galaxy and abused children that weren’t his in the name of his wife….but because the hargreeves were just born.

that’s it. the reason the cleanse happened is a) their punishment for being born and b) abigail felt bad for an experiment gone wrong and decided to make it the entire timeline’s problem. and the only way to stop it isn’t to figure out a way to stop reginald from unleashing the marigold/coming down to earth & allow all of the og 43 children to be born naturally, when they’re supposed to be, but to….erase the children that never asked to be born from existence while leaving a million loose ends, unanswered questions, and shitty character choices that don’t get developed or explained in any way.

this season was just…….it was definitely a season of a show, i’ll give it that. the pacing was all over the place, so much so to the point where, if anything, we needed four MORE episodes, not four less. i have so SO SOOO many questions. where tf is sloane? what about the other 35 kids with marigold in them? why didn’t we see five create the commission? does durango give superpowers the same way marigold does? why couldn’t ben just drink the marigold himself if he wanted his powers back??? WHY THE FUCK WOULDNT YOU JUST GO AFTER THE MAN WHO UNLEASHED THE OG MARIGOLD INSTEAD OF THE INNOCENT HUMANS WHO GOT STUCK WITH IT WHO THE FUCK CAME UP WITH THAT?? YOU COULDVE DONE A WHOLE THING WHERE THE COMMISSION WAS ORIGINALLY DEDICATED TO FIXING REGINALD’S AFFECT ON THE TIMELINE OR LITERALLY ANYTHING—

literally just kill this last season with fire. burn it at the stake. i’m so pissed and so done. i’ve been watching this show since i was in fucking eighth grade, and i was so excited. i thought they were gonna do a whole thing where it could’ve been like “ben was always meant to die and now the universe is out of whack” or just SOMETHING other than what we got. steve blackman, i genuinely hope you have the worst fucking time for the rest of your life, you raggedy, smelly, conniving, ass-backwards bitch.

thank you and good night.

HOW VIKTOR EMBODIES THE HEXCORE

HEAVY S2 SPOILERS DOWN THE LINE!

discussions and theories about whatever tf happened at S2

Okay so first of all please bear with me with this, I ain't a League player and my English is very wonky wobbly. This is just me and my two brain cells rambling about Arcane season two and hypothesizing and stuff. Please be kind!

So I actually posted a brief explanation on what I think may cause the cuckoo bananas shit that happened in Season 2, Episode 3 entitled "The Instability of Hexcore" here's the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/arcane/s/CZdS4fgI7i

I try to swim through the waters to try and explain everything that happened there. Please keep in mind that this is purely theoretical and it merely serves as a post where y'all can discuss and share your thoughts and stuff!

I. An analogy of the Hexcore

Think of the Hexcore as a Rubik’s cube (I know, yes, because it already looks like one). The Rubik's cube has an even amount of miniature cubes that complement each other to build one singular cube. The same with the Hexcore which contains Runes that compliment each other, which helps it learn and adapt. Although, upon trying to fix it, Viktor suspects that there's something ‘missing’ in it, something that can sustain the Hexcore’s adaptability process and therefore help it learn and evolve. However, the moment that Viktor tries to merge himself with the Hexcore with his blood and inject himself with shimmer at the same time, this action alone would be akin to forcing another color to a Rubik's cube, breaking the laws of space. Viktor's blood may have the ability to help the Hexcore evolve biologically, but shimmer, as it always does, makes it unstable. And if the instability of the shimmer is unable to affect the Hexcore itself, it will find a way for it to do so, and therefore explains the reason why it's spreading and affecting others.

II. Jesus Viktor HOW??

How the hell did Viktor manage to heal himself and other people? My theory surrounds the three main components of the new and improved Hexcore: the Hexcore itself, blood, and shimmer. Once again, the Hexcore is the object of evolution and adaptability, and blood enhances its abilities by letting it adapt biologically. However, in terms of shimmer, in the entirety of the series, we are shown that there are good and bad effects of shimmer. The good effect: its ability to heal and regenerate. In my opinion, this fact also has something to do with Viktor's ability to heal himself and other people, but with a cost.

III. Why does Viktor himself and the people he healed are half metal now?

The moment Jayce “combined” the Hexcore and Viktor's body together, they became one, which was also why the Hexcore was no longer to be found. However, back to the possible reason why Viktor became some sort of a cyborg, I think it happened to be because of his spinal brace? Considering how it was entirely attached to his skin too. Maybe the Hexcore in him realized from his spinal brace, metal can be an object to help people just like how it helped Viktor. Therefore, it also explains why when Viktor heals Huck, scraps of metal were magnetically embedded onto their bodies as well. The Hexcore knew how these metals helped Viktor, and therefore gave it an idea to make use of it in healing other people.

Additional idea from my friend's sister, credits to her!! When Viktor healed Huck he actually took or erased his impurities by spiritual means, a void was left which should have resulted in his death due to its inability to be physiologically viable. However, because both worlds (the spirit and the body) have to complete, connect, and complement each other, the physical voil must be replaced by the materials from the physical world which is metal.

Once again, these are just theories!! You can ask me in the comments for questions, clarifications and stuff yada yada. I personally love Jesus Viktor but I miss the goofy side of him in this Season ☹️. Much love! xoxo

Don't forget to drop your ideas, thoughts, and other theories!

I thought I’d already found all the possible little hints in XI that Sylvando/Sylvia is trans-coded.

There’s the throwaway party chat line at the French private school:

Ah, to travel from place to place collecting mini medals, learning all about the world and blossoming into lovely young ladies! The students of this school are so lucky!

If we find any mini medals on our travels, we should bring them back here right away so that we can blossom into lovely ladies too! Wouldn’t that be wonderful, honey?

There’s the fact that Sylv in Act 2 bends down to pick up items in the exact same way the girls at the academy practice with mini medals, echoing the statue at the gates of ‘La Collectrice’ - “an elegant young lady picking up a gold medal in a distinctly dignified fashion”.

Very demure. Very mindful.

There’s also the name angle to consider. Though it could be argued that if you leave home and don’t want news of where you are getting back to your dad, you’d probably go by a pseudonym or a stage name. So I don’t think that Sylvando/Sylvia not going by Norberto is a very strong piece of evidence at all.

Adding to that, the fact he ran away from home could yet be seen as a gay young man running away because he didn’t feel accepted at home. But it could also be a trans character doing the exact same thing, so I’d say it’s still very plausible. Not to mention Sylvando inadvertently following in his mother’s footsteps during Act 2 with his gang of gay little ducklings, as mentioned by the Ringmaster is actually a really cute detail, however you want to slice it:

I saw her when I was just a child. She was simply the most incredible performer… She led a parade of people out of a kingdom destroyed by monsters, and on to a new home and a brighter future. And she kept them smiling from start to finish! You can’t imagine how inspirational it was for those of us who were lucky enough to wave them on their way.

You remind me of her, you know. The look on her face as she proudly led all those people out of danger, spreading joy and laughter wherever she went…

Then there’s the fact Sylvando/Sylvia goes by female pronouns in the JP version of the game. Again, not concrete evidence based on the fact that “extremely flamboyant gay male characters” in JP media are often (sadly) treated in the exact same way, reducing them to a comic relief sort of “hodgepodge mix of everything queer” Okama stereotype. This doesn’t erase their cisness or their homosexuality. But I can see why from a western viewpoint it might seem like really strong evidence of their transness when it’s something particular to Japan that got lost in translation. The closest comparison I can think to make to “make it make sense” is in the west where gay femme—but entirely cis—males call one another “she” and “her”.

However, I found what could be the most concrete “HEAR ME OUT” evidence completely by accident:

Boxer shorts are a common suit of armor in the Dragon Quest series. They are generally considered a gag piece of equipment notable for their low defensive properties and they can only be worn by male characters.

And wouldn’t you know it, only the Luminary, Erik, Rab, and Hendrik can equip the boxer shorts in XI…

I checked.

Now. I don’t want to say this is canonical or 100% proof by any means. Sylvando could just be a flamboyantly gay man who has too much self respect than to be seen dead in those striped monstrosities. After all, I can’t imagine someone like Jasper would deign to equip them either lol

What I love most about Sylvando/Sylvia is how open to interpretation the character is. I’ve seen so many conflicting theories that are all written beautifully, and all hold merit. (I myself enjoy dabbling with how I interpret the character depending on the needs of the story I’m writing, and whatever tf my gender is doing on any given day…)

And the best thing about Sylvando/Sylvia is the overwhelmingly positive reception to the character from fans. How Sylv could’ve been a cheap throwaway gag without substance, yet arguably became the character who ‘stole the show’ at every turn and got some of the best storylines.

In the end, I didn’t want to save the world for the rest of Erdrea - I just wanted to do it so Sylv could go home and make up for lost time with his adorable, crotchety dad! 🥺💕

Reasons why I am against AI-generated content #7392639:

People no longer know the difference between good, self-made 3D digital art / fx and AI. Not everything is AI guys!! Artists have been doing cool 3D blends and animations for many years!! Yes, it looks incredibly fluid and real. No, they did not use stolen content. Believe or not, people do still very much study digital art.

Super disheartening seeing an artist's hardwork being dismissed as AI generated "art" (and same for bands/ creatives who comission them and get unwarranted hate). Why tf do you think AI looks like that? It's stolen content. They literally steal artists' styles to generate their own images. It's unethical and disgusting and I want absolutely nothing to do with it.

Also, side-note: using AI tools to help create your work is absolutely valid. We have been doing this for decades. What do you think "magnetic lasso" or "magic eraser" are? Do you think you computer just knows where the edges of stuff are? The difference is that before we didn't have the Big Bad label attached to it, nor all this disgusting nonsense. Artificial Intelligence is exactly that. Very useful when used correctly (as a tool), absolutely vile when mimicking stolen art.

#this has been a psa because i'm kinda pissed off #before you accuse someone of using ai art do a little research ffs #“oh but it looks like-” NO SHIT. if someone stole my cake recipe i would expect the food to look and taste like cake #anyways #ai art #anti ai

Even if you do add asexual, ace or aromantic to the search there's gonna be those "no fictional thing should ever have to present anything accurately or respectfully ever" people like "as an asexual you have my permission to do whatever you want with alastor's asexuality!" like... who tf asked them? they have an agenda they're trying to push, they do not speak for the ace community as a whole 🙄

Yeahh, even with the aro and / or ace tags we're not entirely safe unfortunately.

Such things do annoy me, I'm not gonna lie. I can understand that romance positive aros, sex positive aces or those who still have sex / are in relationships/ etc use the "aro/ace people can still date / have sex" or remind people that it's a spectrum and some still feel these type of attraction because yes, that's true.

But what annoys me is that saying that to people annoyed about the constant sexualisation/ shipping of Alastor is basically siding with the non aroace spectrum people using that "aroace people can still feel that/ do these things!" who saw that and ran with it purely to be able to continue with what they want to do.

Yes, asexuality and aromanticism are spectrums. Yes, some feel the attraction. Yes, some don't but still engage in these activities. And if you're on the aroace spectrum and it's your case obviously I'm not going to shame you for putting alastor in such scenarii because you're using a character like you to relate, and still acknowledging his aroace identity. The problem is that most people putting him in these situations totally disregard his aroaceness. And when as an aroace (spectrum) person, you say "people can still ship him, I do! Aroace people can feel these things or do them!"... You're basically enabling their erasure of his identity. Deep down you're right, but non aroace people don't care about that, and don't do these things the same way you do.

That's why, to non aroace people shipping alastor, I will remind them that he's aroace. And clearly not on the part of the spectrum where he still feels those things, nor is he interested in pursuing them.

And to the people on the aroace spectrum, I will just say, please, don't mistaken their words for a reel need to showcase the variety of our identity, because most of the time that's not what they want. You don't forget his aroaceness in the way your ship him, they do. Ship him all you want, because I know your heart is in the right place. But please don't defend the others.

As a loveless aroace, it pains me to see him constantly shipped and sexualised by everyone (even though that's clearly not what he'd want), and these things being defended.

I thought I had found a character I could relate to, that I could search stuff about him peacefully without seeing all kind of romantic and sexual stuff. I've been proven wrong, and it hurts. And the excuse they use hurt even more, because it feels like we're only palatable or interesting if we can still feel these attractions sometimes or engage in those things. As if alastor being a loveless aroace is a disappointment, that they *need* to ship him to be satisfied, for him to be enough.

Sorry for the rant, I definitely repeated myself, but I wanted to take the opportunity this ask gave me to give a bit of my opinion on this.

Tldr: I have no problem with aroace spectrum shipping him because I know they keep his aroaceness in mind. I have, however, a problem with non aroace spectrum people doing that because they erase his aroace identity completely AND use the diversity of it as an excuse to continue doing so. And it pains me to see fellow aroace people defending that, because I feel like they don't realise how those people ship him.

Guys why tf did me and my friend come up with damn Baldi Basics OCs.

Nerd - Has three uses. Give him a worksheet for him to follow you, this where he comes in use. He's good!

💀

I HAVE TOO MUCH STUFF I NEED TO WORK ON FOR MORE BRO 😭😭😭

Anyways here's some basic info abt them

~~~

Nerd- Has three uses. I say he's on the good side. Give a worksheet for him to follow you!

• If you come across Book, he will stop Book, sit down, and read Book. Book can't bother you for the rest of the game, but you can't reuse Nerd, either.

• If you come across Bully while with Nerd, Nerd will run away, with Bully chasing him.(Bc y'know bullies love to bully nerds?) But next time you see Nerd and want to use him, you'll have to give him a worksheet AND apple to bribe him. Running into Bully AGAIN, and he'll stop choosing to follow you.

•Pass by Baldi with Nerd, and Nerd will stop to annoy the absolute shit outta Baldi with questions. Blah, Blah, Blah, he'll temporarily have Baldi stunned for 20 seconds! Afterwards to reuse just give him a worksheet.

Lunch Lady- Good person. Is only found in the cafeteria. You have split chances to get three different items upon seeing her! She appears every five minutes, waits for two minutes(This is when you should go see her), then disappears.(She'll reappear again after 5 mins)

•Item ONE, is a water bottle. (Useful against AirPlane) Item TWO, is an apple. (Can be used for Nerd) Item THREE is the rarest, a Zesty Bar! Zesty Bars give you a minute long speed up!

Glitch- A rare appearance! They appear just to pop up in front of you, and glitch/teleport you somewhere else. There's no avoiding him.

• Note that he tends to avoid the Principal.

Book- A giant, open blue book with giant googly eyes and floating hands! He appears just to switch you around if you get a question wrong.

• When he finds you, he'll slam you shit in his, well, body? Like closing the book around you, and hold you shit with his hands together.

• He'll give you one random question, of you get it right, he'll leave you alone and go. Get it wrong, and he scrambles you up by spinning and shaking! You temporarily lose sense of direction for 10 seconds.

•If you use Nerd against him, he'll be unable to bother you for the rest of the game.

Pencil- A giant pencil wearing a black tie. Great buddies with Book!

• Appears in hallways, scribbles a wall in your path, laughs, then leaves. It includes blocking other characters from you.

•Getting a big pink eraser found in classrooms can erase the wall!

AirPlane- A giant white paper airplane wearing a black tie. Zooms down hallways yelling "Outta My Way!".

• When you stumble upon him, he'll knock you over, making your screen go black for 15 seconds before you gain your vision back.

• Using the water bottle against him makes him soggy! And he can't knock you out because he'll be busy drying himself for a WHILE!

•Gets on Gotta Sweep's nerves by making messes.

Guidance Counselor- Married lady. Who is she married to? No one knows! She's a good lady.

•She will temporarily stun Baldi and Bully, for two minutes!

• Finding her and asking for a hug will give you a temporary power up and temporary immunity to all characters! For one minute.

~~~

GUYS SHOULD I DO SMTH WITH THIS????

tell me about your favorite blorbo? like ramble tf away about it, let the hyperfixation take over, i'm so fuckin ready to know everything about them xD

okay I was gonna talk about aventurine but @chevaliermalfets also said I had permission to talk about Adler so.

Russell Adler Propaganda Hour

Okay so first I have to explain Call of Duty Black Ops.

Call of Duty is a franchise but within that franchise there are 3 studios all working on separate games with their own lore. Black Ops, or Blops, is a "universe" within call of duty and it's pretty much the only thing the Treyarch studio works on. (It's kind of connected to the other universes now, I DON'T have the time to get into that so just forget it. Like Dumbledore's sexuality, it is not relevant to Adler's journey.) Black Ops spans 80 years and the lore got Convoluted but they refocusd it again with the last 2 games like: okay. Blops is about top secret CIA operations during the second half of the 20th century.

Black Ops Cold War

The fifth blops came has a simple introductory plot. "It's 1981, you're CIA agents, there's a Bad Russian (Perseus) who wants to do things with Nukes. Standard cold war aesthetics shit. Go get the bad russian. Here's a team led by your NEW BEST FRIEND Adler." You mostly play as Bell. Adler is Bell's Best Friend they fought in vietnam together Adler always wants Bell on his team they're besties. Also, yes, this is the call of duty where you choose your pronouns and Reagan respects them. Much like Reagan I will be using they/them for Bell because I'm not a coward.

So yeah this plot is simple. Adler and you have been chasing the Bad Russian for years. You do various chaotic shit during this campaign. (Sneaking into East Berlin through the underground metro. Breaking into THE FUCKING KGB HQ AND HAVING AN OPEN FIREFIGHT IN ITS VAULT? ADLER? WHAT THE FUCK?) But throughout the game you get little hints something Isn't Right with Bell. They forget things, their past isn't as clear as the other characters, the CIA handler overseeing your op, Hudson, oesn't Trust them and often he and Adler argue about bringing Bell along.

And then :) A mission goes Very Wrong, one of 2 characters die and Bell gets Fucked Up. Adler basically drags you back to the safehouse and the surviving team members start putting you on a gurney. Hudson starts yelling at Adler to stop wasting time, that Bell is no use to them anymore, and the team ignore you. You're like "aww, Adler cares about Bell so much he's gonna waste time to help the- Adler why are you pointing that needle at Bell's eye... OH MY FUCKING GOD!!"

And then you find out that up until like a month ago Bell was working FOR PERSEUS. And then a jealous associate turned on Bell - and you WATCHED THIS HAPPEN from the POV of Adler's team. Bell is a nameless grunt that got shot in a car in the first mission. Adler and the team found Bell, took them back to the CIA, and when Bell didn't break under torture, they BRAINWASHED BELL with MKUltra shit to believe they and Adler were best friends so they'd willingly give him information.

They basically erased Bell's fucking psyche and replaced their memories with implanted memories from Adler's time in Vietnam. BELL IS NAMED AFTER THE BELL ADLER USED TO CONDITION THEM TO RESPOND POSITIVELY TO HIM. BELL HAS BEEN BRAINWASHED TO COMPLY AND OBEY WHENEVER ADLER SAYS "WE HAVE A JOB TO DO." THAT'S WHY ADLER TOOK YOU EVERYWHERE. THE BRAINWASHING IS CENTERED AROUND ADLER. HE CONTROLS BELL.

And you find this out as Adler is guiding you through a fucked up mindscape based on one of his Vietnam missions. He's trying to get you to open a red door - a kind of visual metaphor for the block you've had in your mind protecting the last SLIVER of free will and information you've managed to hold back from him. And as Adler gets angrier and pumps you full of more and more drugs the dreamscape starts getting trippier. At one point he's like "ENOUGH FUCKING AROUND!" and the visuals crumble around Bell and they get flung back to where Adler wants them to be. At one point Bell starts remembering the lab where this happened and Adler just goes "-exasperated sigh- Why is Bell in the lab? I don't want the lab, I want the bunker."

And then Bell wakes up. And let me tell you it's genuinely extremely effective going from Adler being 'protective' of you the whole game to Adler having a hand around your throat cursing you out like you're his enemy. Because you are. After Some Arguing Adler is like "okay, tell me where Perseus is." and YOU can choose to either lie or tell the truth. If you lie Europe gets nuked, but you get to stab Adler in the heart and kill everyone else who did this to you and reunite with Perseus who is immediately Very Concerned about you and Very Proud of you for managing to survive this ordeal.

If you tell the truth (the canonical ending) you get a long cutscene where Adler monologues about "A Few Good Men Making Bad Decisions To Protect The Free World" basically the motto of the US Military's imperialism. And then you and the team stop Perseus and save the world ... and then in the credits, Adler takes Bell up a hill and says "this little thing between you and me wasn't personal" ... and he draws to shoot you and Bell draws like a milisecond after bc after all the programming Bell can read Adler just as well as Adler can read them they're supposed to be bffs after all.

It cuts to black like the fucking sorpanos but the implication is that Adler *KILLS* Bell. Because they've outlived their usefulness. If you choose The Right Thing, Adler KILLS you presumably on CIA orders bc Adler only cares about The Mission.

And that's just COLD WAR!!!!!!!!!!

(Adler pic for making it this far)

Black Ops 6

10 years later during Operation Desert Storm. This game isn't even ABOUT Ader, except it is bc he steals every scene he's in. Case in point, he enters the campaign by striding out from behind a car, coming out of the dust like a demon, and shooting a friendly, unarmed man in the head with no explanation, justification, or apology, while everyone screams. One character literally says "Adler!" but not like they're calling out to him, like the way you might call out a warning like "gunship!" "tank!"

(And then they wrestle with him and he's out of breath and panting and on his knees w/ a gun to his head heehee hoohoo I'm normal I'm normal.)

Anyway Adler has been on the run for a while because he's suspected of being a mole who fucked up a crucial CIA operation. He claims he's being framed, and the CIA are compromised. He gets thrown in a CIA black site and once you investigate and find out he's probably telling the truth you have to put a team together to uncover The Truth and to break him out.

And THEN you have to deal with his chaos for the rest of the campaign the highlights of which include: shooting an unarmed man and going "whaaaat? :( he was going for his gun" when called out, trying to throw a confessing, surrendered man into a jet plane engine, and just carrying CIA MKultra torture drugs around in his bag and pulling them out when necessary like they're chapsticks. Everything Adler does is so fucking funny in how cartoonishly evil it is he is a DELIGHT. This is Adler NOT pretending to be a decent guy like he was with Bell.

(Also you can indirectly ask him about Bell and he shuts that shit down immediately. >:) That's theirs. That's his and Bell's and nobody else will understand their fucked up hannibal lecter will graham antics.)

I don't even know how to summarise the plot except at one point a character is reliving her worst trauma and she claims Adler killed her parents in front of her when she was a child and they were CIA agents and Adler was ordered by the CIA to kill their own, and I started LAUGHING AND CLAPPING LIKE A SEAL it hit like meth. The game claims this did NOT happen and she has been misled but I refuse to accept that. It happened. Adler killed this women's parents in cold blood and then mentored her in the CIA. I hope he killed her pet hamster too. I hope he ate her last lunchable from the fridge and stole money from her piggy bank.

Yes, he is STILL SUPPOSED TO BE A PROTAGONIST. And you have to understand how incredible that is. Call of Duty does NOT let its characters be Proper Bastards. Call of Duty characters always need to turn to the camera and say "but of course, as a us military soldier, I would never commit a war crime because we are the most ethical military in the world."

But Adler is a *protagonist* and he not only commits war crimes, when other characters judge him for it he's like "uh we work for the CIA dipshit the blanket war crimes permission came free with our badge bc WE get to decide when a war crime is necessary! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!"

Call of Duty doing this is like a dog learning to ride a bike. That's not an expectation I ever had for the dog, nor is it something I thought he could do. Frankly, I don't know what this dog riding a bike MEANS in the grand scheme of things. But goddamn that sure is a dog riding a bike and I want to see more of it.

Questions You Might Have

What's with the facial scar?

Adler refuses to tell the real story like any good Bond Villain he just HAS a cool scar covering half his face.

Why does he dress like that?

BC it's a period piece in the sexy Spies And Soviets era and he's watched too many movies. I hope he went to see Top Gun

Why is he like this?

>:) Because he's a beast created by the US Military's total lack of oversight and self-legitimising discourse that means anything is true and permitted as long as they say it is.

Why is he so funny?

Bc he's a call of duty character who is aware they are in call of duty and therefore any attempt to minimise their evil is wasted breath and pointless effort. This is like the reverse of parody. This is face-value "yes we really mean this" taken to such a ridiculous extreme it BECOMES Parody. This is like the reverse of why Senator Armstrong saying "Make America Great Again" 4 years before Trump Presidency happened hits like crack.

How did call of duty make this?

I have no fucking idea dude I think someone from metal gear snuck into the building.

Wait didn't you tag something as AdlerBell but they-

I subscribe to the NBC Hannibal school of "sometimes ruining someone's life can be intensely romance coded if you two are the only two people alive who can understand what went on between you." I think Bell should eat him.

Are you okay?

Absolutely not. I think Adler has MKUltra'd me.

#call of duty #cod #I didn't put this into a word document but it's #you know #long :)

I really love your art and your artstyle!!! I'm trying to learn to draw and I'm struggling to find a way to draw faces and especially eyes that I like, could you maybe share some tips on how you draw faces because omg I am so in awe of how cool your art looks! :D

FKEKVKKEKD OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH 🥺🥺 I'M SO HONORED

Honestly, the best advice I can give is to study tf out of art styles you like, bc that's exactly what I did with TGS. The amount of pages I just stared at and tried to lowkey memorize is ungodly, and once I started drawing the characters and trying to emulate sage's style, I kinda just kept getting better from there. My ability to draw poses and full body stuff also got exponentially better VERY quickly, TGS is just magic like that, I swear.

Also, for eyes specifically, referencing each characters eyes and testing different expressions is kinda the way to go. I use my physical copy of Vol 1 a LOT for referencing (especially for Hyde and Lanyon)

(A LOT more under the cut lmao)

Also, just drawing headshots of the characters over and over helps too, especially in pen! I have literal DOZENS of random 5- 10 minute pen doodles. The nice thing about the pen stuff is that, yeah, youll mess up a lot and not be super satisfied with most of them, but it forces you to be a bit more careful about how you place things and steadier with you hand, at least in my experience.

(The sillies)

See? Most of them really suck, but they made me pay a lot more attention to what I was doing and what I wanted to do. It also helped me grasp quirks of the characters and drawing expressions a lot better. Plus, this isn't even all of them, I've got a bunch more in a little envelope I made.

Also, looking on Pinterest for pose references probably would also help, or taking pics of yourself for reference, but I'm built different (stubborn and lazy) so I rawdog my anatomy and poses 🗣️🗣️

Otherwise, I can also give a little doodle example with Whole Jekyll on how I currently draw in pencil and such :3

Start with circle, then give it a nice center line and chin

Then I throw in the neck and shoulders (which tend to change a decent bit bc anatomy is hard), the eye line, which goes through the middle of the circle, and then I like to do a line down the chest to figure out which way I want him pointing, since he's at a tilt. I also change this quite often, along with where I want the face pointing lmao. Once I've figured out direction, I draw the nose starting at the bottom of the circle and up to the eye line. I also then draw the top of the eyes first. The eye line (and apparently the center line 💀) is of course a suggestion, and I tend to mess around with the eye shape until it looks mostly right.

Then the bottoms of the eyes and the pupils get thrown in, which I have to redraw pretty often to try and make them match better. I also usually leave the eyes blank bc I'm lazy af and can't draw pupils too well, I will shade them tho and that makes them look better.

Then bbg gets ears (which I usually start around the corners of the eyes and go down to just above the little curve of the jaw), eyebrows (also just mess around with these til they look right) and a mouth (I HATE drawing mouths 😋😋), then they get their hair (also have to redraw a bunch)

Also, to show Whole Jekylls other eye, I pinned his hair back, so there's a treat, Whole Jekyll enjoyers <3 bbg can fully see 😍 (Mind Lanyon probably forced him too)

Then I shade his eyes, give him clothes and fix up any quick things that were bothering me (in this his nose) and go back with the edge of a rectangle eraser and get those guidelines and extra lines out (sometimes they're still a little visible, but maybe just don't draw them as heavy handed as I do 💀) and Bada Bing Bada boom! Doodle done :3 of course its not the best, but it doesn't have to be, thats the joy of doodles

Heres another good pic to kinda show how I use my guidelines (and how messy my doodles usually are, it's part of my charm guys, I swear--)

Otherwise like, my progress shots for drawings look goofy af lmao, like--

Messy af, incorrect proportions, wrong anatomy, eugh. just takes time (and a lot of redrawing) to get to the final pieces.

But yeah!!! Eyes are annoying, it just takes a lot of tweaking and repetition.

Like, I redrew some of these eyes a decent few times and some of them are still off, like cmon Lanyon, why you gotta be so hard for me to draw 💔

Anyways!!! Thats probably the best I can offer right this second lmao, sometimes I kinda wish I could record drawing and stuff but I don't do stuff purely digital often enough to. I do have a full speed paint for that drawing of Jekyll in Hydes mind clothes tho, so idk maybe I'll share that if anyone wants me to lmao.

But yeah! Thank you so much for the ask and the kind words, I hope this helps! or is at least entertaining lmao
