More Misc. HCs

(Because I’ve been holding onto these for ages and the time is nigh.)

ART TEACHER KAZUNARI. That is all.

Tsuzuru's laptop: "low battery, connect to charger"

Tsuzuru: "if I don't get to sleep, neither do you"

Muku loves when Azami does his makeup. He's shy about it at first, but after a few times he doesn't hesitate so much in offering to be his practice dummy when Azami gets new palettes he wants to try out.

The reason half of fuyugumi's songs sound like 90s boyband shit is bc they're old fucks (affectionate) and absolutely grew up on that shit.

Kazunari doodles kinda elaborate cover designs on the front of his scripts. Others take notice and sometimes ask him to draw on theirs too.

When Citron's particularly annoyed / fed up he'll insult people in Zafran, but keep up a smiling face so most people just assume he's being silly. (Itaru and Tsuzuru suspect. Chikage actually understands, but plays along.)

Citron smiling brightly, in Zafran: "Stuff your sh*t opinions up your *ss where they belong."

Chikage chokes down a laugh, only mostly managing to keep it together.

Sakuya, tilting his head curiously: "What did he say?"

Chikage: "He said that's an excellent sweater you're wearing, Tsuzuru."

Misumi knows really basic handsewing. His grandpa taught him because he believed in things still having worth and value when most people would view them as broken and useless.

Banri to Azami: "Heh, guess we both have a thing for Hyodos."

Azami: ??

Banri: "....Dude."

Some Hisoka HCs

(Because I love him and he’s underappreciated af.)

Hisoka has scars. They sometimes ache, and he’s pained with the physical reminder of memories he doesn’t have. No one asks about them. But Omi does offer him an ointment to help with the occasional aches (having experience with that himself).

Hisoka hates the cold, but he tends to sit in the chill when he’s feeling nostalgic or struggling through memories. Most of the time though, he can be found flocking to any warmth like a cat. Curling up in front of the heater (which Sakyo yells at him for, because “that’s meant to heat the whole dorm, not just you!”). Laying right down in a patch of sunlight, no matter how inconvenient the location (and waking up juuust long enough to scoot over once the sun has moved, then promptly falling back asleep).

Like a cat, Hisoka also hates water. Being submerged in cold water triggers his PTSD. He’s okay with bathtime if the water is nice and hot though.

Hisoka tends to fall asleep in the bath though, because it’s warm and soothing. After an Incident, someone is always charged with bathing with him to ensure he doesn’t drown or become a prune (usually Homare or Azuma).

Hisoka is ambidextrous.

The reason Hisoka tends to speak in shorter sentences and takes a while to think before speaking is because he’s not a native Japanese speaker, and unlike Chikage, doesn’t pick up languages so easily. He also thinks in a different language, but before regaining his memories couldn’t quite pinpoint what language it was, even though he knew it perfectly. It made translating his murky thoughts even more confusing and complicated.

Aaaaaa thank you friend! These were my first HCs for this fandom so I'm glad they're still getting some love. (':

Misumi + Triangle Stickers

You know that Ultra Mr. Triangle Kazunari says he's designing for Misumi? He makes stickers.

(You can't tell me an art student with connections to a literal television crew doesn't have access to a sticker maker.)

Sumi has the BIGGEST grin when Kazu gives them to him. He is SO excited to take advantage of his new portable, stickable triangle friends.

He starts leaving them everywhere. Around the dorm, about the city, you name it.

He may go a bit overboard.

Often leaves them in places where he finds particularly good triangles, both as a reminder to himself and a general thank you to the universe. ("It's a triangle trade~!")

"What's with all the stickers?" he's eventually asked, after several are found around MANKAI. "If you find them, they bring you good luck! Everything's better with a triangle~!"

Believing this wholeheartedly, he makes special care to leave them in his favorite places, and places where people look down or in need of a good triangle. Including:

The briefcase of a sleeping man on the train, because he looks exhausted.

Inside the hood of a fussy baby's stroller while their mother is busy with another child. ("So they can always see it and not have to cry anymore~!")

Somehow manages to stick one on the triangle shaped part of the dorm roof, and if you look closely enough you can see it from the street looking down on you like a fair maiden on the front of a ship. (Just.... slightly more unsettling.)

The stage floor--Sakyo almost has a conniption. He can't get it off no matter what he tries, so he's eventually convinced to just leave it since it can't be seen from the audience anyway.

Tsuzuru finds one while riding the train one day and just lets out the biggest sigh.

If people he cares about are having a bad day he will go out of his way to sneak one into their belongings.

Taichi's having a rough time studying? Bam. There's a Sankaku-kun sticker inside his notebook.

Tenma's bonsai's not doing so well? Sankaku-kun, right on the pot. ("So it can grow big and strong and triangular~!" "That's not even how it works!")

Azuma's having nightmares? You bet your ass there's a Sankaku-kun sticker on his bunk, right there next to his pillow so he'll only have good dreams of triangles.

He wants to give one to Yuki while he's in the midst of Costume Crunch Hell but doesn't want to make him mad if he sticks it in a place he doesn't like and can't get if off, so he keeps the backing on one and slips it inside Yuki's sketchbook. (He'd never admit it, but Yuki is incredibly touched by this extra bit of thoughtfulness.)

Misumi also uses them as a form of thank you's and apologies, since he's not very good with words.

Kazunari has collected almost a dozen now for various reasons and he treasures every single one. His side of the room is starting to look almost as triangular as Misumi's.

And so it’s time for the Summer Selection.

To our favorite poet

Hello hello! I have completed the project! (Please click for better view)

More details and a plain version below the cut.

Thank you so much to @autisticmisumi , @river-gremlin , @primeministerofantarctica for helping me get all the poems I didn't have the cards or chats for and @omisbreakfast for helping me with figuring out what program to use, how to do text paths, and bearing with me as I flipped out about backgrounds 💕

Plain version:

Programs Used:

Adobe Illustrator -creating the figure of text

Procreate -everything else

Other Info:

Currently (as of the Two-Faced Teacher event in EN) Homare has 55 complete poems (any poems appearing in others' backstage stories not included)

All 55 poems are featured in the piece! They were gathered, then I had a program randomly generate their order

This type of shaped poem is called a Concrete Poem

The 「Savour the Changing Seasons」 transparent raw was outlined around with modifications to Homare's hair, hand, and other areas with sharp curves so that the words could all be legible

Poems are separated by |

Credits:

All poems, the original card (Savour the Changing Seasons), the flower, and character belong to Liber & Cybird

The work of creating the form, assembling, the piece, and making the background was my own

The images used were obtained through yaycupcake, but belong to the game.

IT MAKES ME SAD THINKING ABOUT HOW MANY YEARS TASUKU PROBABLY THINKS HE WASTED ACTING AT GODZA AND HOW HE DIDNT FEEL LIKE HE WAS GROWINGGGGGGG

RRRR BITES YOU

I MEAN YOU'RE RIGHT BUT WHY ARE YOU BITING ME ABOUT THIS?????????? HEWWO??????

Honestly it's SO SAD, i keep thinking about the Link Skills description tbh "they entered Heaven, not knowing it was Hell", like, this place genuinely messed them up as they joined and i'm so sad!! and for Tasuku this is so sad because he wanted to join this prestigious, big company, and as soon as he joined, he lost his childhood best friend, had to keep playing roles that felt like he wasn't growing, was seeing that other people were not getting any chances to grow either, like.

I feel like Tasuku has reasons to believe that on top of not growing, he's suffocating others into being unable to grow, with the way he's put front stage and that people are constantly compared to him, and that it's why he is more healing and growing when he can play full support roles.

like i feel SO sad for Tasuku because on one hand he must feel so much gratitude for how much he did learn and the exposure he got and the fact he was being trusted this much but everything just brought more suffering and didn't let him grow and led him in a position where he couldn't help anyone either not even himself and i'm so. so sad.

like, NOW you can bite me bc i got emotional about it because of your ask bUT LIKE WHY DID YOU BITE ME /BEFORE/ I GOT EMOTIONAL
