so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

[melodyglow-blog]

i was bitching and moaning about people removing dabis burns and piercings and making him "normal" and making him "handsome" well guess what. when you get to a level of skill of drawing him you first draw "burnless dabi" every single time.

idk how to feel about this

im putting it under a read more i think. you all know what it is. i just wanted to draw "artistic nuditiy" that didnt include dick and balls...well. heres your Gift (literal)

[melodyglow-blog]

what did horikoshi mean by that one art of dabi

[melodyglow-blog]

doesnt look very ashamed to me. smug bastard

[melodyglow-blog]

you are a rare case of someone de-twinkifiying a character. and yet again you are 100% correct about Dabi and you should keep doing it.

TWINKS ARE OVERREPRESENTED. sick of twinks. no more soft big booty girlboys, now is the dawn of huge burly guys whose skin feels like a cheese grater.

but yeah that aside i also believe its a case by case deal and dabi was just written to be his dads size and scary and freaky. its got literary merit, trust me im the first person to think im correct

Yuina walked down to the riverbed where she’d left her charge to relax for lunch.  He liked to lie there in the shade and she hated to disturb him on a such a lovely day.

But this, unfortunately, would not wait.

Touya opened his eyes at her approach and pushed himself upright, wary and searching.  It wasn’t time to go back inside yet and he hadn’t called her for anything.  In his mind, that almost always meant someone was here to see him, and it wasn’t Shouto.  Shouto was always welcome and would just walk down to meet him.

“Your parents are here,”  Yuina said softly, kneeling beside him.  “What would you like me to tell them?”

Touya thought about it a moment, then signed,  “Send them away.  I don’t want to see them.”

Yuina nodded.  “I can lie.  I can tell them you aren’t feeling well and want to rest.”

“Tell them the truth.”

“Very well.”  She started to head back the way she’d come, but hesitated.  “It isn’t my place, I know, but I am curious.  Will you ever see them again?  You allow your brother to visit.”

He wouldn’t tell her why he spoke to the youngest brother alone.  The sister called often, not to speak because he was unable, but just to check in.  And sometimes she asked to visit.  The other brother neither called nor visited.  Their parents made the drive out here at least every other week, as they’d done when Touya began refusing their company last minute.

Today was no different.  He offered her no explanation.

So Yuina nodded in understanding.  It wasn’t her place to argue, and though the importance of family was deeply ingrained in her heart, she knew it was not always so simple.  Still, she could not help but mourn her young patient’s loss.  “Can I get you anything else?”

Touya looked to his unfinished meal, his books, his journal, and seemed to think on it a moment, but all he signed was,  “This is enough.”

“All right,”  she said and she left to break the news to his family.

They will leave in silence.  Sometimes, the mother will cry.  Sometimes, the father.  But they never protested.  They never insisted.  They never pleaded.

And maybe, Yuina thought, maybe that was what Touya wanted.

Some sign these visits weren’t just parental obligation.

Or the product of their guilt.

...

I'd been wanting to draw something with a garden in Touya's house arrest. This isn't so much a garden and more so just the bank of a river on the property, but I think there's room for some symbolism in water being the opposite of fire.

But at this point, Shouto is the only family member Touya is one speaking terms with.

I may do a full one-shot with this eventually.
