"Non paeniteo potitus."
+ details & process
And, process !!
The jump btwn the second to last and last always surprise me whenever I make one of these because I always forget to take snapshots after I start painting. It's always like: oh yeah heres the lineart with some colors- BOOM fully finished✨️
What he's holding are the Austrian imperial scepter and orb, seen below:
I was going to draw the crown too but decided I don't hate myself that much(maybe some other day), and gave him a golden laurel crown, bcs I'm obsessed with that as a motif, and also its very remincient of the boy king statue that started this whole thing!
There's some symbolism of this, both intentionally but also just historically. I love that the orb represents that the monarch is holding the world in their hand, basically every old monarchy has one of those, and I think it's very cool for symbolism. But also bcs of that, I was forced to basically draw catholic fanart so, you win some you lose some. The star halo above him head is both to reference those religious statues with star crowns(I saw them a lot in Europe and they imprinted onto my brain), as well as: his four championships of course!

Has anyone considered that the reason why Luis is so polite and lenient is because…
He just really wants a friend. Just chronically craving friendship and nothing more than friendship.
Tone just happened to get lost over text.
He has no idea anyone's lumped him into the "boyfriend zone", and he probably won't notice unless Nessie spells it out to him. In which case he'll pull the "I only see you as a friend" card.
He thinks that Nessie's in an abusive relationship and wants to get her out of it, not because he wants to get with her, but because he can't stand seeing his BFF hurt! He doesn't want to go for a coffee because it's a date, he wants to go because he wants to get to know his new BFF better!

Ik you said that you’re taking a break for the evening (which is a very good choice, i’m glad that you’re taking those steps to make sure this doesn’t negatively impact you) but I just wanted to say something.
I know it can be hard to do so but please try to ignore anyone saying rude or disgusting thinks in asks, ESPECIALLY anonymous hate. Keep taking care of yourself, even if this app can sometimes be less toxic than other social medias, there are still assholes and all you can do about it is block them (if not anon) and try to not let it get to you.
Hope the rest of your day goes well.
I have received a lot of anonymous hate before - and it's often amusing with how much a person can say when they feel comfort of you not being able to see their face.
Especially if they think we can't check the truth.
Thank you for telling me about blocking, because I forgot that is an option on other socials, it's good to know it's a part of this website, too.
It went well, thank you, kind anon.
May life be kind for you.

hi, i hope this doesn't sound weird but i'm a little confused. i saw you're no longer following me, which is fine, but all evidence that you've ever interacted with my blog is gone, and our message history is gone too. i cant send messages to you either. if this is just me not taking a hint then feel free to ignore this, but i saw you were having blog issues and i've never seen something like this happen so i wanted to follow up
NO ITS NOT YOU BEING WEIRD i still follow you (from my perspective, anyway?) but yeah it seems like all my messages are gone, i dont seem to show up on posts when i leave tags, i cant reply to posts... i really have no clue why T_T ( @pions )
