TKB continues to get dragged around Egypt against his will by his (newly self-appointed) best friend. I'm sure this will turn out juuuuuuust fine

Hey, have you read Coming Forth By Day? You should!

IT LIVES AGAIN

A Kaijou fic that I really liked got deleted and I AM SO UPSET

[sharkrocket]

God I have so many songs I wanna draw pupship for

But for context, one of my favorite flavors of Kaijou is when the boys are growing older, and Joey is ESPECIALLY having trouble keeping his optimism and fighting off loneliness as everyone around him starts branching off to independently find their callings and the struggles of adulthood catch up to him

And in a similar vein, Kaiba is still trying to chase that high of battling Atem years after that final battle and is in his own depressive state, all while denying the reality that Mokuba is also becoming more independent and is growing into his own person, in addition to managing the already existing hellscape that's trying to run a multi-billion dollar company

So, when Joey and Kaiba's world's DO collide again, they sort of end up gravitating towards each other, grasping at the straws of something familiar and nostalgic, but with an underlying recognition that maybe this attraction isn't genuine, and maybe even born out of some deep-seated need for companionship whether they choose to acknowledge it or not (unhealthy co-dependency yay)

So, in short, kinda angsty, kinda messy, and kinda depressing (but with an eventual happy or bittersweet resolution! Half the fun is watching them slowly make some realizations about themselves, but it'll be a turbulent, bloody, and ugly journey to get to that point)

Anyway, here are some of the songs I had in mind for this very specific dynamic:

Do Nothing - Contraband

Jerk - Oliver Tree

Sen Morimoto - Woof

Baths - Wistful (Fate Morgana)

Kindness - Swinging Party

Modest Mouse - Dramamine

Caroline Rose - Command Z

Let's Eat Grandma - Donnie Darko

Hiii @sharkrocket was amazing and sent me a copy of the file to make a print!!! It's a thing of beauty, I'm so excited to frame it and put it on my wall! Temy looks so good, I'm just like Daniil fr. Thank you so much for letting me do this, I love the patho community

[sharkrocket]

Oh god I haven't drawn these idiots in 12 years

[sharkrocket]

Is there any chance you would be able to sell a print of the shirtless bloody Artemy collage. I can't stop looking at it. I would understand if not but figured I would ask

Awh man I wish I could 😭 I don't have any platforms to do any prints unfortunately

If self-service printing is an option for you, I'd be more than happy to give you the big file to do it, just let me know!

[sharkrocket]

Oh god

Thank you Blood Rituals by TQ121 for writing shirtless Temy fist fight, the meal is delicious and I am fed

[sharkrocket]

FYI I'm TQ121 on ao3, and my freind excitedly sent me the link to your beautiful shirtless and bloody Artemy art last night. I'm super glad you found Blood Rituals inspiring, and I love how dynamic the poses are. I'm especially glad you gave him the heft and musculature you did. You drew Artemy like a man with working muscles that can go several rounds in a fight, as opposed to a man with with sculpted abs, no stamina, and dehydrated. I also appreciate how you got the squish of his stomach just right for each pose.

His bloody grin and wild eyes in the one drawing his amazing, and really there is a reason why Daniil having those reactions in the background.

I did reblog this on my pathologic blog, but I thought you might want to know that I personally like this so much.

YEESSS THANK YOU 😭 I'm glad I have your approval, that makes me really happy

Thank you for writing this! Your descriptions are a joy to read and there can never be enough fics about Temy doing punching real good and Danko being unwell about it, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you

breaking news!!! kaiba's not actually wearing a trench coat but rather an oversized short sleeve cardigan

[sharkrocket]

Every time a fic describes Artemy "with a healthy layer of fat" I get so fucking powerful, you don't even know

Hey there! It’s been a minute! Just wanted to say I’ve been playing through the Nioh games again recently and still fondly remember our shitposts about a blond samurai with a zoo in his head and his reluctant, apparently French, dual wielding knight boyfriend. Hope life’s been treating you well! 💛

HELL YEAH!! Fucking incredible shitposts, I still have the art on some of my flash drives somewhere 😎 Truly some fantastic and hilarious times

I'm doing okay! Busy but content, and I hope all's well on your end too!

[sharkrocket]

Do you take commissions? I looked briefly but might have overlooked the information regarding it because I was really busy absorbing the infinite high quality Haruspex and Bachelor posts

Depends! I tend to be pretty busy, so nowadays, if I like the subject matter, I'll accept the commission since I'll be super motivated to do it

If you're looking for a Burda commission, I'm listening 👀 Shoot me a DM and I'll see what I can do

[sharkrocket]

What was that one comic you made that included Sir Vilhelm and the ashen one? I can’t seem to find it 👉👈

Oh god, late response but I think this is the one?
