Deltarune chapter 4 spoilers!

I really don't know how to convey exactly what I feel about this into words but something about this scene really caught my eye so I'll try, this will probably be rambly, bear with me (or just scroll past this post its fine I'll likely delete this anyway)

I've seen people talking about how Kris chose to hug Ralsei in this scene by themselves, but I'd say its more than just that, because if you pay attention to their arm you notice that Kris isn't really hugging him. Looking at the split sprite, they seem to just have a hand on his shoulder

Throughout the game Kris can hug Ralsei multiple times. Theoretically if you really want you can hug him dozens of times in the tutorial alone and then I think at least twice more throughout the game, but that's the thing, it isn't Kris doing that, that's the player. Kris had zero input on the matter. If we are to take Asgore's words as fact (and also pay mind to how they don't really hug back when Toriel hugs them), Kris doesn't even really like hugs that much to begin with, so it leaves the question: If Kris was in control, would they really have done that? And then this scene comes in

Something about Kris trying to show care and give comfort in their own way, one that is different from the silly things the player might have made them do earlier on, something "smaller" and maybe a little awkward but really true and I wonder if Ralsei noticed. If he could tell that was really them or that something about this was different. If it stood out to him the same way seeing Kris play the organ did both to him and Susie. Something about Kris real self still managing to slip through the cracks in these small, brief moments and those moments sticking with their friends, becoming the most memorable and important ones rather than anything the player makes them do. About them loving Kris for the glimpses they get of who they really are, and what realizing that may make Kris feel later on

I don't have a real conclusion to this just. Fun Gang is driving me insane I love them

I read the new chapter a few hours ago and I'm going a little insane about this and didnt see anyone else talking about it so here

Tartah cant lie anymore. It took me a while after reading the chapter for my brain to connect the dots with something I found while looking through the wiki a few days ago

I scrolled through the authors twitter to find when this was made. Its from July 2020. 5 years ago. Shirahama please pay for the therapy sessions this manga will make me have /j

It's still sinking in that The Owl House was about a girl running away to a fantasy world, all because of the ripple effects of losing her father at an unfairly young age — only to eventually learn that the fantasy world itself was made of the bones, and the flesh, of a loving father who'd protected his child with one of his final actions, before dying and giving life to that fantasy world. And eventually, in his truly final action, even giving life to Luz herself. Luz ran away to the Boiling Isles, all because of a single book that her dad gave her — and unknowingly, she spent every day walking over ground that embodied parental loss. A world that was born from a parent's death, a parent who had to leave their child far too soon — and not just any child, but Luz's own new best friend, in all of this new magical world. And King and Luz were only ever brought together because of their fathers' deaths — before they even realized they had anything in common to grieve. Before they realized a reminder of that grief had been beneath their feet this whole time.

But, at the end of the day... their fathers both gave them parting gifts. Their fathers both gave them the key to come of age in a world full of people who'd care about them — maybe not the only world where they could've been happy, but a world they wouldn't want to imagine missing. Their fathers gave them the chance to meet each other. To understand each other. And, ultimately, to heal and grow up together. Until the ground beneath their feet stops feeling so heavy, like grief — and starts feeling lighter again, like a gift, and a happy memory.

crazy how last year I did a full inktober and turned out fine and now this year I grabbed a prompt list with just 10 items and at drawing 3 my wrist simply gave up on me. Hopefully it'll get better soon enough but god damnit

[awakeskydoesntdraw]

Update now that the quest actually came out

First I've never been more glad about being wrong lol thanks god Lynette is fine (although you could argue she DID almost die, her brothers ended up in the same state in the end and it wasnt because of Lyney). I still think most of the stuff I said makes sense and it's curious to me how the writers chose to ignore those parallels and instead threw in a line about Arle and Clervie actually being like Lyney and Freminet

I have some conflicting emotions about the quest, specially concerning how they handled some stuff with the siblings, like building up the whole thing with Freminet not having called Lyney brother in years, have Lyney directly talk to him about it just for the quest to end without it ever being brought up again and Freminet really just not calling him brother (unless I somehow missed something VERY important since it was 4 am by the time I finished the quest)

Maybe they could go back to that in another quest in which the focus is actually them. I hope they eventually do

Other than that, it was nice. Loved being terrified to death while following Arle around and having her insult my damage during the boss fight was. Sure something

Overall, thats about it. I hope everyone had a good time and I lend you my blessing for you to have the same luck as me and pull Arle in a single 10 pull

unless you want Lyney. You wouldnt want to use my luck on that. I pulled a Qiqi and had to waste all my savings for the little bastard (/pos) to come home. You're better off on your on lol

Posting in this blog after an eternity because I feel like I'm going insane here and my friends are asleep so I need to dump my brainstorm SOMEWHERE (SPOILERS FOR ARLECCHINO'S BACKSTORY/SHORT ANIMATION!!)

The TLDR is basically I think that the whole story with Arlecchino and Clervie is foreshadowing for whatever is about to happen with Lyney and Lynette

I think the parallels between Lyney and Arle don't need to be too explained for the most part. Pyro Visions, Arle wants him to be the next "king" while he doesn't seem to be too into that idea just like her younger self didn't want it, both are associated with Rainbow Roses (they both use them as ascension materials)

Plus, I'd argue they look kinda similar here. I'm not sure exactly what is that makes the resemblance, maybe a bit of the hair, bowtie and shorts and you could say it's something she has with the others too (her kid design resembles Freminet, current one Lynette) but I thought it was good to mention anyways

Meanwhile, Lynette and Clervie are the two closest companions to their respective pair

Lynette's has Lumidouce Bells as an ascension material. Clervie is very clearly represented with the same flower (if her necklace wasn't enough, there's this)

Plus, a bit of a smaller connection, but they both have clear sweet tooths

(Lyney saying "we talked about this" implies this is a frequent event. The animation showing Clervie with cake twice while it only had 7 minutes to tell the whole story has a similar effect)

So, if Lyney is a parallel to Arle while Lynette is a parallel to Clervie, where does this leave us?

Well... Not exactly in a good spot-

To be fair, I don't think Genshin would actually kill a playable character (or at least, so I hope), but it's very possible Lynette gets really hurt, either directly by Lyney or by being close to him

Arlecchino swore to be nothing like her mother, but in the end, the way she's acting towards Lyney by wanting to make him the next king may be very similar to it

Once upon a story quest, Lyney said similar words to a woman who claimed he'd end up all alone. I can only pray that the writers will have mercy at my soul and that they wouldn't go that low with a playable character

If I were to make a mildly self indulgent guess, as the Freminet main I am, I'd say that he may be the key that's going to make things turn out different for the twins. His presence is the biggest difference between the twins vs Arle and Clervie, who seemed to have no one else that was even mildly close to them. From the 4.6 trailer we know that he's the one that has been hiding stuff and we do see him blocking out Arle's attack, so I don't think it's a stretch to say he'll have a really important role in this whole thing

So yeah! If you read all my rambling, thanks I guess, hope you enjoyed it. In the end, all I can hope is that the Fontaine siblings all turn out fine for the sake of my own mental wellness because God knows these 3 stay all day spinning in my head as if it was a microwave

Also, for the record: No, I don't have a clue about what the hell is going on with Freminet apparently finding "Clervie" (ghost?? Illusion??) and hiding her from Arle. Until this short my best shot was that she was some sort of mermaid creature, but that idea is out the window so it could be anything really

There’s that post that’s like ‘everyone should get into a tiny niche fandom at least once’ fully agree, that was really fun -- but I would like to add that everyone should get into a fandom where their opinions run counter to major fanon because it really teaches you about sticking to your guns and trusting your interpretation of the text without having to rely on peer validation

because WHAT are people talking about sometimes

Artists do you ever really really like a character but then you try to draw them just to find you cant quite emulate their essence/beauty in your art style and then you're left to just suffer?

totally couldnt be me hahahahahha,,hah

[awakeskydoesntdraw]

Im just going to add here in this other blog that I love how my first sketches for this one look like this

in conclusion: trust the process

Reflection

[awakeskydoesntdraw]

Update: I'm currently losing this battle. I'm not strong enought to resist the temptations. The abyss is only a few steps away. Tell my family I love them and pray I get back to the surface unscratched

Being an artist that's constantly on social media and follows a bunch of other artists means being in a constant struggle trying to run away from Genshin Impact

Like, I know myself, I know that if I take the slightest look at it I'll fall in the rabbit hole and get stuck for god knows how long and I don't want that

But on the other hand THE FANART IS SO GOOD HELP THE ABYSS ITS CHANTING MY NAME BEGGING ME TO GET CLOSER I CAN HEAR THE SIRENS SINGING

[awakeskydoesntdraw]

Oh god Im once again being dragged back to MysMes hell help me
