throwing this out really quick to let everyone know that, due to time constraints, this blog will no longer be consistently active, and I will not be participating in Astro Boy Fanweek 2025 (even though I did intend to at the beginning of the year). my schedule has been jam-packed since january, and it's reached the point where I need to start taking some things off my plate. i'll keep on posting Astro Boy fanworks whenever I have the opportunity, but it will probably take a while to get back to it. thanks to everyone for making this blog a great experience while it lasted ✌️

thinking about how you can see the slow progression of the Astro & Tenma relationship through their hugs alone. thinking about how, in the first two instances, Astro is offering absolutely zero reciprocation -- leaning away as far as he possibly can without breaking out of his father's hold, his posture stiff and tense and awkward -- while Tenma clings to his son like a lifeline, wrapping his whole body around Astro's, crushing him to his chest and caging him in with a hand on his back, a hand on his head, and never even noticing the discomfort rolling off Astro in waves.

thinking about how, in the third scene, the greedy, grasping kind of desperation Tenma exhibits on the previous two occasions is almost entirely absent -- his grip is visibly looser, allowing Astro to pull away whenever he chooses, and leaving plenty of room for Astro to rest his chin comfortably on Tenma's shoulder instead of being shoved into his chest. thinking about how Tenma is, for the first time since Astro's birth, finally and fully here in this moment with his son -- no longer fantasizing over the child he lost, but completely and singularly focused on the child he gained.

thinking about how quickly and readily Astro returns the gesture -- leaning in instead of away, pressing as close as he can without falling off the table, body relaxed and expression contented -- even if he can't properly reciprocate with his bound hands. thinking about how this is the first time Astro has ever received a hug from his father that wasn't soaked in grief and guilt.

thinking about how Astro initiates the last hug -- eagerly, without hesitation, a smile on his face and his arms open wide. thinking about how Tenma is the first person Astro calls for, and the first person Astro reaches for, when he wakes up after the battle. thinking about how natural and comfortable the two of them look in this moment. thinking about how there isn't even a trace of awkwardness or uncertainty anymore. thinking about how you can see the slow progression of the Astro & Tenma relationship through their hugs alone.
