now that i think about it. i remembered reading the first few chapters of beyburst manga before starting the anime, then i thought this is a funny way for me to be introduced to shu and valt dynamics
like i had an impression of shu being lowkey a dick to valt at first. seeing anime shu was a whiplash to me at first.
(crawling up from the earth) HEY BEYTUMBLR. idk why i have completely ignored posting here despite havjbg been super back into beyburst this last couple of months ? no beyburst post on here since (checks calendar) APRIL LAST YEAR ?? insane… ive seriously lost my edge 😖😖 i have been posting sm more on twt idk why 😭 anyways dump of whatever i could find while scrolling through my camera roll LOL
free my girl. i missed drawing her MUAH (also a vauge redraw of this post) (fun fact, both were made in 30 minutes !)
shuvalts ? if u giv a damn ?? (they are vaguely holding hands) (if u can tell) (drawn with platonic intention but can u romantic i suppose) (if u so wish)
hey so. (grinning maniacally) do you remember my daina & the sword flames au. guys im cooking up something SWEARRR depending on my motivation and availability this comic will get done soon
when u see MY shu kurenai. just know he is a nic addict. a fiend !!! that boy loves his pink lemonade vape, please dont seperate ! (idk when this hc started but i think its hilarious and its one of my favorites)
and just. various doodles from church LOL (all shu ofc damn 😖😖😖)
the next person I see say shuvalt is "flavorless childhood friends to lovers" is getting catapulted into the fucking sun. shuvalt isn't just childhood friends to lovers, they're childhood friends to rivals to enemies to rivals to lovers.
shu got into beyblade because of valt and they made a promise to each other, but shu failed to keep that promise and, after failing to live up to his own expectations, literally almost destroyed himself and every meaningful relationship he's ever had (including with valt) over it. meanwhile valt was out here risking his life to save him.
from cho-z through gt, they consider each other rivals but shu isn't the most relevant in these seasons.
but then in superking, shu is now in "I can fix him" mode with lane while valt is worrying about wth shu is doing. he's going around all concerned that shu is going to self-destruct again like ?)![÷[%<^@%$<-<!(?#%)%>_×] and it's a serious relief when that doesn't happen.
and then shu goes to therapy in dynamite battle and shu and valt kiss at the end of quadstrike probably.
admittedly in the seasons where shu is a significantly less important character than valt their relationship is like mild at best, but the point is that if u can't see the flavor in their relationship at all u are literally not looking.
i'm sorry i have keep asking for you guys to help with stuff like this but someone submitted an untagged take about 'shualt' and i feel like that might be a ship name rather than a character name, if it is a single character i can't find them
there's a beyblade ship called 'shuvalt' i think, but i want to make 100% sure since that's not exactly the same and I don't know anything about beyblade
Ooooo I remember finding you back when the first season of Beyburst was still airing!!! My first impression was based off one of your earlier shu/valt artworks- I just thought you were a really talented artist at the time and followed you in the hopes of seeing what other beyburst art you'd make!
Even now, you constantly have me on the edge of my seat to see what you'll create (no matter what fandom it may apart of)!!! Your recent Pokémon fics have captured my interest- Honestly I wish you the best in your future! ^^
Aaaa thank you so much for the kind words Locket ;; 💖 man, just thinking about early Beyburst days makes me nostalgic. I remember seeing your ShuValt artwork, too! Those were the times!
I'm glad that me switching fandoms so often hasn't put you off haha. I'm happy that you took the time to check out my recent Pokémon fics. That means a lot ❤️ thanks and I wish you the best in the future too!! 💖💕💖💕💖💕
