I love Johnathan "It seems my academic detachment has fled me" Sims with my whole heart, and honestly it's because he's a fucking prick. He spends all of season 1 genuinely being a massive asshole, and not just on the outside, he's a prick through and through. I think there's an instinct to justify his behavior because people like him, but I think that's discounting what makes him interesting.
Yes, when he lies and pretends that he is skeptical, it is out of self-preservation. It is out of fear. But he allows his fear to become something that hurts the people around him. He calls multiple people, traumatized people looking for help, delusional. To their faces. It's not the only thing he says, but he says it with a heavy tone of condescension and irritation, two things that vulnerable frightened people do not need. Both Martin and Sasha almost end up dead because they're convinced that John won't take them seriously if they don't have good enough evidence of their experiences. He's a huge asshole to Martin for literally no reason. You aren't obligated to like everybody, but goddamn, John, some thoughts are inside thoughts!
And then he realizes that he's a massive prick, at some point in the latter half of season 2. Really realizes it, realizes how much his actions impact the people around him. And he doesn't really stop for a long time, arguably he doesn't stop ever. But holy shit, he tries. He tries with everything in his entire being to be better. He puts his whole life into being better than he was, into trying to fix what he feels he broke, and he will try and try and try until his hands bleed and his legs collapse under him because he let people suffer under his watch and by his own hand and Never Again. I think that's why he leans so hard into sacrificing himself, it's the cumulative guilt of everything, even stuff before the Magnus Institute, and he really does think that he can only be good if he destroys himself in the process because what the hell has ever been good about him?
And that's horrifying, and tragic, and fascinating. God, he's such a good character

I haven't been well lately, and sometimes, I feel like I'm not long for this world, but I'd like to be. I made this so I can look on it when times get really tough.

Miles/Danger, despite being a big name in the crime world, and being a force to be reckoned with- has the simple weakness of water. He never learned how to swim and is a mixture of too embarrassed and too scared to learn now in his adult life
What's something that you want people to know about your character that they wouldn't want anyone to know 👀👀👀

“They tell you you’ll feel different coming out of Cryo-sleep. No one told me I’d change entirely…”
The Alien hyperfix ever since I watchrd Romulus has been strong, and I’ve brainstormed an entire AU story from it. Maybe I’ll post it if I ever write it all out.
Context for this is that Gabe’s cryo-pod was sent onto an unknown planet for ‘safety’, but something infected the pod while he was sleeping…
I enjoyed all the different textures i got to play with, i love the section around his neck in particular

"for a name I didn't want, it is pretty sick" ngl I saw similar ear weights and wanted to throw them on Miles and paint some metal via jewelry Lore Time!! Miles replaced his right canine tooth with a bullet after his (now) husband knocked it out rough-housing

“One of many universes, one of many ways our lives could go- I’m so lucky I get to be with you…”
Inspired by jimmyjimsjim’s cyborg character designs and wanted to try exercising lines on the body and painting metal, had to go with the snake boy

Art update!!
I’m playing a battletech TTRPG, and I wanted to use one of my cyberpunk characters, Kelsyon!
We were picking out pictures and pulling this up- OOF!! The one on the right is from 2022, and I needed to redraw him for my sanity ahah
I’m so happy with Kels glow-up!

“I wasn’t creative naming him as a Kid, but I was accurate”
@theslime suggested I revisit drawing an old character, Nigntmare; the demon that plague’s Midnight’s mind.
Gotta love this 2 nosed, 4 eared freak
