Your silhouette's all around, it lives inside my head
Am I awake or is this a dream?
the visit josuke never made to the rainbow village and why okuyasu can’t stop thinking about it... i’m finally up to date with ‘in another life’ by @rainbowvillage-diningbar and wow; this is such an exciting journey that poses a whole universe of questions and possibilities, and i love how we get to follow okuyasu in it!
(based on the poses of this photo of lil nas x and this other one, and the vibes of this illustration because i wanted a light background for higher contrast)
[ID: This is a digital drawing of Higashikata Josuke and Nijimura Okuyasu looking at each other, in the latter’s dining bar filled with paper lanterns, drawn in warm colors against a light background. Josuke (wearing heart earrings, a single peace pin, plain pants, a high-collar long-sleeved shirt, and a looser mullet and pompadour) stands closer to viewer and looks back at Okuyasu, with small grin and a dollar sign keychain in his hand. Okuyasu (wearing his brother’s earrings, dark uniform, an apron with gold details, and a visible matching diamond keychain) stands and grins proudly in the middle of his dining bar, but tears up at the sight of Josuke visiting him. All colors, smudge in a shower of light that makes the lanterns look like shooting stars. End ID]

something ive realized about social media is that people like Character Design but they do not actually like ocs. you can make a zillion designs of like, a humanized fish or can of soda or flower or whatever and get thousands of likes. but once the novelty wears off and you actually want to Make something with the characters and give them a story (mini comics, a longform webcomic, animations etc) its like pulling teeth.
outside of your mutual circle, you will get one or two reblogs thats like "#i dont know what this is from but—" like they are just incapable of realizing there is art outside of fanart. i no longer blame people that go "oh this isnt my oc its actually just my au/take on [popular character this looks nothing like] from [big media everyone loves]" bc you literally cannot get people to engage w/ your art unless its a one off design or already connected to something .
man. idk where im going with this besides it feels like there's nowhere for ocs that arent gimmicky and marketable and it SUCKS !

START THE MUSIC!
(based on this jojo-like pose hakari striked but was only seen from behind, from jujutsu kaisen’s chapter 187)
[ID: This is a colored portrait of Hakari Kinji, posing shirtless against a flat background with three drawings of cute girls in chibi style. Light shines on him from below and streaks of bright cursed energy emanate from his body. While his arms cover most of his face, his only visible eye looks dramatically ahead. End ID]

the best way to luffy’s stomach is through his heart (or something like that)
a four page one piece fancomic in which luffy and law talk about luffy’s stomach
page 1
panel 1: a top view of luffy and law sitting in grass. luffy is leaning back on his hands with his legs outstretched. law sits crosslegged between them. they are both looking down at the hole in luffy’s abdomen, where law has used his devil fruit power to remove his stomach. “whoa! cool!” says luffy, while law hums, “hmm… interesting.”
panel 2: a close-up of law’s hand holding luffy’s stomach in its cube-like container. “it looks surprisingly average,” law says, “for a bottomless pit.”
panel 3: “isn’t it weird?” luffy asks. he is sitting with his back to the viewer, but his smile is still visible as he leans into law’s space. law is still crosslegged, holding the stomach, and he looks vaguely uncomfortable as luffy keeps talking. luffy says, “that thing can make food stop looking like food and start looking like poop! huh. wonder how it does that…”
page 2
panel 1: law looks off to the side, sweating and kinda grouchy. knowing he’ll regret this, he mutters, “i… know how… at least for NORMAL humans.”
panel 2: the back of luffy’s head takes up most of the panel as he demands, “what?! i wanna know too!” law grits his teeth and shouts back, “you’re just gonna fall asleep!” and luffy yells, “nuh-uh!”
panel 3: luffy grins widely, throws his arms out to the side, and flops onto his back in the grass. he’s loudly yelling, “tell me! tell me, traffy!”
page 3
panel 1: law is visible from a low-angle, as if from luffy’s pov on the ground. he sighs, “fine. here’s how it works.”
panel 2: this panel looks similar to the previous, but its slightly darker, with gray bars at the top and bottom, narrowing visibility to show luffy’s eyes are closing. law continues, “the stomach has two main functions.”
panel 3: law is now barely visible through the gap. luffy is almost asleep. law says, “the first, as YOU know, is the storage of food.”
panel 4: the background is completely dark, and law’s words trail off, “the second is—“
page 4
panel 1: a large, top view of luffy lying on his back in the grass. his arms are thrown wide still and his eyes are open. he has just jolted awake, saying, “hmm?” off-screen, law complains, “i don’t know WHY i bothered.”
panel 2: law accuses, “you didn’t listen to a word i said.” luffy sits up, his lips pursed and eyes narrowed because he’s a terrible liar. he says, “sure i did,” dragging out the “sure.”
panel 3: luffy breaks into a grin and proudly declares, “it’s a mystery!” law cuts him off with a “NO,” his speech bubble literally dripping with disdain.
panel 4: the silhouette of luffy and law sitting side by side. law is whapping luffy on the head with a light fist. law says, “idiot…” before bonking him. luffy yells, “hey!” but he is laughing, and a small “heh” shows law is too.
