light kingdom 🌸

day 1 for @fates-week : light/hoshido!!

i wanted to pick up a stained glass-like style like i did in my ibispaintx days, and i thought it would fit the kingdom-based prompts for this little fandom event :)

this is the first time in a while i willed myself to actually pay attention to what corrin’s armor looks like instead of making it up TwT

my favorite character in whole s.t.a.l.k.e.r series is the Doctor. This old man could probably befriend a chimera for all I know. I was always obsessed with the folklore around this character.

this is my first time drawing him when I actually like how everything turned out - and it has a content cat as well - so it's nice :)

the one bit that i will always take from the sonic twitter takeovers, even if i ignore everything else, will always be shadow talking about sonic reaching out to save him at the end of SA2 and shadow waving him away. I think that one has fundamentally changed me as a person

ALTAiR - Pretender - 1/8 Scale by Alter

I think people saying that ei discarded scara because he was too “fragile” or too “emotional” is a bit… meh for me. It feels like people are calling him… idk… too emotional?? Even if they dont mean it literally

Ei needed an unfeeling puppet to pursue her ideals of eternity, and upon scara’s creation she noticed that she had made a sentient being. And not wanting to destroy a creation that is far too human for what she needed him for, she put him to sleep in shakkei pavillion.

And thats the thing… he was too human for her ultimate goal. When he awakened due the unknown error, he misunderstood it as him being abandoned because he was not the prefect tool for her. Rather than realising that maybe, just maybe this might have been an act of mercy on him (i mean, look at what happened to furina. A human having to play god for 500 years is definitely no walk in the park), he saw it as ei throwing away a broken toy and removing the battery he needed to work for a different, better toy.

I think ei’s and scara’s dynamic is much more complex than just simply being “mother and son” (although it would be a bold-faced lie if i said i hated or didnt like that type of dynamic for them). I think scara likening his creator to a parent is very human of him, and exactly what ei didnt need. Although ei does call him “child” (at least… in cn) its more like a term of endearment rather than her genuinely seeing him as her child. But because ei needed a tool, scara also ends up seeing himself as nothing but a tool and an asset for others once he decides to abandon his human emotions after everything that happened in tatarasuna.

I have a lot of mixed feelings about them…. I do believe ei was not in the wrong for not wanting to have a very human puppet serve for her, but i also do not think ei is completely in the right for abandoning scara, as he is was created by her own hands the same way a mother would give life to a child (big fan of frankenstein and the question of “who was the true evil? Victor or the monster?”). Hmmm….

I want them to interact in the future 😮‍💨

"Oberon" (Fate/GO) by Umino Chika 

[poppyseed-cookie]

I think it’s actually incredibly likely that Shadow Milk was the first to become a Beast, like I’m almost 90% sure, but since I always liked the idea of him being the last I just headcanon that he didn’t see himself as corrupted or anything until after all the others (ES also having the same thing going on tbh. They both think they were the last to corrupt but neither of them were (or maybe idk I haven’t decided who I think is last yet cuz no SS)). He’s like “I didn’t go evil until after all you guys” and they’re like. “You literally lied before any of us did anything questionable??” and he’s like “THAT COUNTS???” They all think he’s just being a silly liar again but he’s actually been lying to himself the whole time rip.
