Hello there!

I'll be going around Tumblr and asking mcu fans who their favorite MCU artist is in hope of creating a list (which I'll post online after a while of editing) that contains the artists' usernames to make it easier for them to get recognized/acknowledged for their work and easier for fans to find their posts!

Would you like to give recommendations of artists you know and love?

i know we all always say that the nxx boys need therapy, i often say this too, but i frankly think all of them would be TERRIBLE (at least at first) in therapy for different reasons

luke: fully aware he's Messed Up but 1) constantly lies in therapy because he's a Liar who diminishes his own hardships and 2) is uncooperative in general because he thinks he Doesn't Deserve To Get Better

artem: ashamed about needing to be there. overcompensates and views the ordeal as Required Homework to be Loved. wants to get a Good Grade in therapy (not how it works)

vyn: HA! vyn?? be VULNERABLE to a stranger??? he must laugh. he'll try to posit that he is actually Perfectly Fine and Unbothered By Any Traumas. might try to mindgame the therapist.

marius: this man becomes a stand-up comedian at his intake session. similar allergic-to-vulnerability problem as vyn but copes by deflecting like CRAZY with jokes and charm and personality. "haha arent i hilarious (please dont ask about my childhood)"

[sentavoarts]

i spent way too much time on this

[jelloia]

i love how luke gets a horse, artem and marius get birds, and vyn gets... baby goats ?? he's so princess coded

We got married to Vyn Richter in Vivienne Westwood, can't believe this, dreams come true!

so REVENGE, HUH? or justice, if that makes you feel better. it tastes the same when cooked just right. 'I REALLY WANTED A BROTHER.' such a shame to burn a bridge you so desperately wanted to keep, especially when it wasnt even you who started the fire. especially when you hope that not a single fragment of that bridge ever washes ashore.[MAY IT ROT FAR FROM MY SIGHTS] an unfortunate loss! atleast he has his friends.

if i had a penny for every time hoyoverse created a white-haired golden-eyed man with a mole near his eye —and a big job with heavy responsibilities, i'd have two pennies. which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

vyn isn't a morning person (doesn't like waking up early) and jing yuan dozes off during the day. why're they like this.

Forever Young SSR Cards: Summary and Thoughts

If you are a f2p player like me and are perhaps still deciding on which card to pull for the event (if any) here are the plot summaries and my thoughts on all the cards that could perhaps help you decide :)

Spoilers below!!

Artem

Plot Summary: To thank her for coming to his auditions, Artem asks Rosa to spend the day with him, but their plans are delayed when the Drama Club has an urgent task. While working on it together and searching for props, Artem places a bracelet prop on Rosa's wrist, though it gets stuck and he has to help her get it off later. In the evening, after Rosa mentions her wanting a similar bracelet when she grows up, they make matching paper bracelets to wear. As night falls, they meet on the rooftop to watch the meteor shower, where Artem confesses a secret, though it gets interrupted by a firework. Years later, at a festival, Rosa reminiscences on that night as she waits for her now boyfriend Artem.

My Thoughts: THIS ONE HAS THE CUTEST ART OF THE FOUR. if you get cards for art you're probably getting this one its just so so sweet!! i tend to like Artem AU cards a lot since i'm interested in how they take the more Ordinary character (affectionate) and put him in different settings, but the high school AU shares many things with Artem's actual past which provides a lot of insight to his character. This story also is the only one that has an "epilogue" where the two are shown years into the future, and the idea of High School Sweethearts ArtemRosa honestly has me weak. it also doesn't really hint towards whether he decided to pursue acting as a career or not, and i think leaving it open ended is nice. its a very cute card! very endearing to see this version of Artem.

Vyn

Plot Summary: With Vyn's return to his home on the horizon, Vyn and Rosa making memories together gets interrupted when they are told they must not return to the abandoned infirmary, as the building is set to be demolished. After reflecting on the past they cherish, Rosa leads Vyn further off campus where they decide to board a bus to the seaside, though they miss the sunset. The next day, Vyn presents a donation contract to the counselor for the renovation of the abandoned building, revealing to Rosa that he is part of the Haspran family. A little time passes, and Vyn finds the goodbye letter she started for him, though she tells him she's decided to tell him in person as she knows they will meet again in the future. A year later, Rosa leaves her graduation ceremony and finds Vyn, here to take her to the seaside again.

My Thoughts: this+the revisiting youth card=AOUUAUGHGHGHG okay, admittedly, i find his illustrations the most boring of the four, but what the art lacks is made up for in the story. Artem and Vyn, being the older ones of the group, have the advantage of giving us almost completely new sides to them when reverted to high school. High School Vyn is a very interesting character, especially in how he navigates his family and breaking away from it in ways different than how he can as an independent adult. the revisiting youth card for Vyn was the most compelling for me, and i think this card satisfies a lot of what can be imagined from then. There's just a lot of tenderness in this card, and their eventual parting leaves a lot of bittersweetness for a good chunk of it, but i do really enjoy this different side of Vyn and his relationship with Rosa.

Marius

Plot Summary: The two have been busy with their respective studies and really only communicate on weekends, but when Rosa needs a break from studying, Marius takes her on an adventure. He reveals a bit about his past to her, as well as sharing his his fear of his family finding out his desire to attend Florence. With the aim that he pass the early admission exam and for both of them to reach the top ranks of the school, the two study together often. Marius asks Rosa to stay with him as he calls his family to tell them of his plans, and he gets support from all of them in return. After the exam season passes, the two go to the studio to see their results, and Rosa learns of her success first, which they celebrate with paper airplanes. After expressing how much they mean to each other, a paper airplane lands to show Marius has been admitted.

My Thoughts: hey this one almost made me cry. why? BECAUSE CARENINA IS ALIVE. GIANN IS SAFE. MARIUS HAS HIS FAMILY SUPPORT UUUEEEEEEEAAA. truly what a welcome surprise. it's an interesting change they did with Marius' backstory here, as the pressure he feels isn't from the family business, but rather the sacrifices they made and how he feels guilty of the support he would get from them. its a cool spin on the themes of freedom present in his stories, though so much of his circumstances have changed. the card art for this story is cute, and pre-relationship MariRosa is one of my favorites, so you definitely get that dynamic here. its very fluffy, with Marius' relationship with his family being an emotional core to the story, despite not really being in it that much.

Luke

Plot Summary: With last year's crisis averted, Rosa wants another chance to work together with Luke. She learns about a competition in which two students from each school compete in a physical and written exam in hopes to win funding for their campus activities. Luke beats her to it in asking that they join together, and they begin their training. Luke encourages her when she begins be pressured and lose sight of her original goal. After participating and qualifying for the next stage, the two have a private medal ceremony, where they learn they both wanted a chance to work together again and promise to stick together.

My Thoughts: this might win second place in card illustrations, as that evol art is absolutely beautiful. i will be honest though...imo Luke got the short end of the stick story wise. it's not bad by any means, but i think he has the opposite situation to Artem in AU cards where Luke's stories are a bit less interesting (which i guess is balance given his important plot cards can get super heavy). we do get some nice moments in the card, like the sweet anecdotes he shares about his childhood with his parents. this specific AU i think doesn't work for him given the dynamic with Rosa. they're not childhood friends or reuniting, so any "what if" scenarios about Luke staying instead of attending NCU early aren't explored. the moments they share retread a lot of what we already know from their past in middle school, so there's not a lot of insight to gain about his character. unfortunate, but i know its what they could do with the restraints of this AU.

OVERALL THOUGHTS: if High School AUs are not something you're that drawn to, then this is arguably a pretty skippable event. For Artem and Vyn, it can bring some insight into their younger characterizations. For Marius and Luke, it gives you some lighthearted fluff in which you know they are happy and their families are alive. They are cute school romances in which the stakes aren't that high and end on positive notes. I really liked the event overall!! now to decide who to pull for....

tw: might be ooc idk, implied idol!reader, deeply in love rin (He's finally back so the rin drought is finally over ♡)

What exactly does love mean to Rin?

Is love the feeling that washes over him whenever he sees you sing and dance on stage? Is love the anger that overtakes his whole being when he sees your boundaries getting disrespected by your so-called “fans”? Is love the jealousy he feels when he sees you interacting with another man?

One might think that love is solely a feeling or emotion often associated with romantic relationships, but no. This perspective often overlooks the reality that love is not exactly the butterflies you feel during intimate interactions— love is not just about the thrill of romantic gestures. Love goes beyond fleeting emotions and passionate moments— love is free. 

Love is when you both go out to buy ice cream in the middle of the night and get mauled by random paparazzi asking if you are dating. Love is when he held you as you cried because your career was on the bridge of failing. Love is when you exchange affirmations saying that both of you will get through this together.

Love is when you both risk losing your careers just to be with each other.

To Rin, his football career may be important but you are not worth losing. Even if the world decides to turn against him for having a significant other, even if his manager berates him for not being more careful— he will never regret taking that risk.

Love is a concept with a thousand definitions, but for Rin, it solidifies in the unwavering commitment to stand by each other despite the relentless backlash. To him, love encompasses everything worth fighting for. In its truest form, love is unequivocally, undeniably, you.
