"asura's penance."

SUMMARY:

incessantly, on and on, without pause. waking, disintegrating, over and over, endlessly. he was weary, now. the cycle of karma had branded itself into his skin, blazing cold, frigid fire. he was like a spider caught in its own web, like a snake biting its own tail, helpless to be devoured by himself. everything left of him, eroded away, the ocean of time carving its way through his cliff side. he, only once, lived guided by his own pleasure and displeasure. after that, the wheel of fate, the rope of destiny, tightened around his neck, far more a cage or prison than the boy with blossom hair ever had been. vexation, humiliation, exhaustion, and finally nothing at all– a blank slate, cleansed of evil. …the buddha and king enma both must be laughing at him.

to obtain, something of equal value must be lost.

happy birthday to my kiran!

concept art for WIP time loop AU "asura's penance"

additional notes on design

mark on his forehead is now in the shape of an eye, along with an eye mark on the back of his nape

main eyes have a ring of sky blue in them, auxiliary eyes' pupils are the same blue (inspired by king of despair from kekkai sensen and mystic eyes of death perception as well as one other third thing that i can't say outright)

shoulder tattoos have an additional ring compared to the original; spinal tattoo has nineteen "petals" total, so nine of the two-petal shape plus an additional one-petal shape at the end

original obi's slash design expanded to flower design

red obijime held by ten-petal golden lotus obidome

black instead of white pants, golden bands above ankles

doesn't wear scarf as often, yuuji probably has it now; nape is often exposed for the eye mark to be visible

hairstyle... don't ask me. something like cu's from fate. yuuji is supposed to have an undercut, so the ponytail might be more like a rattail, but sukuna is a shapeshifter (nails/claws, eyes, mouths) so the hair could also just lengthen and be pulled back by the bandages. waves hand.
