My old boss once took me on a mental health walk because I was having the WORST day fully crying and he brought his dog, who wasn't that interested in letting me pet him....

That fuckin dog (affectionate) stuck his entire nose in my butt the moment we stopped walking 😂😭

Misogyny, huh????

So, it is Misogyny to call out ‘love’ whose basis is treachery, dishonesty and scars left by the betrayal? Shisui only needed to be a man to showcase how quickly people would have flipped on that ‘ship'...

Moreover, hardly care who ships whom, I care about narrative distortion and thinking somehow Jinshi, who appears in every volume, is comparable in potential and meaning to someone who largely disappears...And somehow the character would have been a better choice over a man who rewrote half of his kingdom's rules in both political and personal sphere for a woman...

Lastly, KnH is what it is because of its exemplary, complex and intriguing women and female characters....They are badass and formidable and memorable...KnH/TAD would hardly be what it is had it not been for its female-orientation...And Shisui was definitely a complex and tragically beautiful character...And who knows MaoMao and Shisui meet in future (which most likely will be) and I bet it would be interesting...But having said this she did not deserve to be raised at level of a heroine or main character at the expense of others, plain and simple...Narrative has worked, and will work, without her...The fact that Shisui actually kind of becomes a reason MaoMao comes to even become wary of her relationship with women in terms of safety is conveniently ignored...She struggles with Yao and Enen and even gets bitterly reminded of Shisui's betrayal when she thinks Chue betrayed her in that particular sequence of Western arc II...So this is not something that is talked about by the ‘misogyny' folks as how much difficult it becomes MaoMao to trust even female friendships again...

Also, legion of complex, beautiful and intriguing characters waiting to be adapted by manga and anime are far too fabulous and important for me to miss Shisui, I am sorry...So, it will take me even more of developing a blind spot, or worse being in denial, that somehow she was indispensable to the narrative or to MaoMao, and that she had potential to become like Jinshi for her... I have problem with this view not from a shipping context (ship whoever you want, heck I might start shipping Jinshi and Rikuson) but I have a huge problem when people start to IMPOSE their interpretation/ship on the narrative.... And tend to diminish a pivotal character like Jinshi or suggest somehow Shisui and Jinshi's love for MaoMao is same... Well, no, you do not lie to people you love, put their lives at stake for your grand plan (or performance) or reveal everything to them in the heart of rebellion... So, as I said in the beginning of this post, would have been fun to see acts of Shisui being committed by a man and you would have seen the same people talking about misogyny using feminism to discredit the same ‘beloved' ship... Also, given sometimes Jinshi is deemed as toxic for way low level of dangerous behaviors (and rightfully so) and dismissed as a perfect partner for MaoMao, having a manipulating, traumatised, betraying character being painted as love interest is sure the way to understand what kind of healthy love folks want to promote! Hardly an excuse to criticise one person's language of love, while eulogising another's despite both being teenagers caught up in family politics....As I said earlier, may a Love like Shisui's never find me where all I am left with is regret, scars, angst and sense of uncertainty as to what we meant to each other...

Ending this by saying I love Shisui and poetry of her character, her bond with MaoMao and wholeheartedly empathise with her difficult circumstances but, as a reader of 16+ LNs, no way she was with MaoMao what Jinshi had been or became...MaoMao, no matter how much Shisui cared about her, was more or less, a prop in her grand performance (whom she tried to protect by first bringing her to the centre of crisis)... You don't do that to a friend, let alone someone you love... Everyone suffers in the KnH, some have really, really terrible stories, like Rikuson and Chue...While I am completely on-board with humanising the obnoxious villains (prev Emperor, Shisou) and view morality of good or bad actions with a subjective lens (Anshi), what I am against is someone's tragic story becoming an excuse of raising the character to an unwarranted pedestal who gambled on dangerous probables and betrayed a friend (Shisui), and then go on and impose it on the narrative, especially when far less manipulative and less dangerous behavior tends to pull Jinshi down from a pedestal....Also, Jinshi is put on a pedestal not because he is perfect but because he has the ability to see the wrong of his acts and courage to actively change himself for better and courage to actively go against everything that tends to harm those he cherishes, you don't see everyday a crown prince jumping in front of a bullet to save a random soldier... I love Jinshi because in spite of him being deemed as perfect, sometimes too perfect, he knows his limitations/flaws, acknowledges them and remains honest with those he loves and changes what he needs to! It is his acceptance about himself as a flawed human being despite the reverence and importance associated with his station that makes him such a forever favorite character...

For anyone dumb enough to thank Trump and sees this as a "win", think again. This is anything but a win. It's a political stunt.

Inspired to draw that scene from Team StarKid's Cinderella's Castle. (+a surprise Sir Hop-A-Lot and Crumb under the cut.)

The lighting on that set then (bright green with deep blue on the side) was so good that I had a strong impulse to just try and capture how I was envisioning the scene playing out in an illustrated fairytale-esque forest-scape-y thingy.

I really want to draw a Cinderella moment next - so hard to pick a specific scene!! I'll be thinking about it as I catch up on work rn. Hopefully I can get to it some time tonight. I did do a quick sketch of Rancilda that I'll post soon though!

It's been a wild couple of weeks, but I'm coming out the other side feeling energized~

Primal Fears AU content but don’t worry it’s still sonadow

That last one is a repost from last year so if you saw the silly drawings but then read the thing in the bottom left corner and went “wait what the fuck”

It’s because it was an AU thing but I literally only had that drawn out and now you get some context at least:

In this universe Sonic is an assassin/bounty hunter/whatever you wanna call a guy that is hired to specifically to kill other Entities. He meets Shadow when they run into each other because they’re both following the same Avatar. Then they do the normal canon sonadow thing where the first interaction they have always ends with them fighting and beating the shit out of each other. And then they kinda calm down but then Shadow has a similar moment from the beginning of the IDW Sonic comics where he gets absolutely pissed that Sonic managed to distract him from catching the bad guy and zooms away before the two have another chance to speak again.

Here Shadow is a GUN field agent except in this universe GUN isn’t really military and it’s more focused on not only investigating (like the Magnus Institute) but also actively dealing with the Entities. Which sounds great except remember how I said they aren’t military well actually they kinda are because “dealing” with Entities and Avatars just means: throw it in the high-security prison that is guarded by other various Avarars that all work for GUN because it means they don’t have to get thrown in prison. So GUN is kinda like The Magnus Institute + Section 31 working together. So actually I guess it’s like the SCP Foundation.

One day Shadow goes into work and Sonic and there and I’m not really sure on what I’m gonna do in the plot to make him end up there (like maybe he’s undercover and just using GUN to get to his next target or maybe GUN does the “hey we’re gonna throw you in jail if you don’t agree to work for us” idk again not sure yet) but now he’s working with Shadow because they still need to catch that Avatar.

So now we’re sorta caught up, they’re at Club Rouge (and I realized I didn’t specify which Entity she serves in my drawing of her but people who guessed the Stranger ding ding ding here have some sonadow) because Sonic and Shadow need to kinda interrogate Surge and Amy, who are associated with the Slaughter. They have a band called Poison Rose and it’s basically just Grifter’s Bone but they perform rock music instead. And are also probably dating.

Anyway the Big Case™️ Sonic and Shadow are working on is investigating a bunch of spooky murders and they’re pretty sure whoever’s behind them is a Slaughter avatar. But not specifically Amy and Surge☝️ They’re kinda “allowed” to perform the Music That Makes You Die because GUN also has like an “informant” group of avatars they can rely on. These avatars don’t work for GUN, but they agree to chill out on the spooky stuff if it means they don’t get arrested for spooky crimes. So for Poison Rose, “chilling out” on the spooky stuff means that they have to force people to wear earplugs while they perform, which wasn’t specifically stated in MAG 42 if that works or not, not really sure of the magic rules of the Music That Makes You Die phenomena but yeah they gotta do that and probably some other stuff so GUN doesn’t arrest them. Like maybe no swearing or something lol.

Okay gonna stop there before this gets even longer explaining my AU because this was supposed to be just a normal sketch post but whoops.

Oh also I made a playlist for the kind of music Poison Rose performs but it was made private because I didn’t want anyone to stumble across it and be like “pshhhh this dumb person who makes public playlists of their AU that no one knows about what a loser” (me when I make up completely unrealistic scenarios in my head) but now here’s a post explaining that part of my AU so that person can’t make fun of me anymore

[davidtennan-t]

oh he is already such a great uncle, giving her the look of ‘I’m supposed to be retired but for you? Say no more, we’ll sneak away tomorrow, your wish is my command’

[keferon]

@jonmartinweek day 1, Pets & Cats / Feelings Realized

I wanted to make something cute for this promt, but I thougth I drawn enough cats with them already :'D So yeah, Feelings Realized got me thinking- when did Jon realised? And I think he did in the hospital, when he just assumed Martin will be his side, and when he wasn't , he had to face it why this hurt him so much…

Or something like that.

[verkomy]

when you look into the mirror are you even there?

[okkalo]

a lovestruck miya atsumu would do anything for you. he didn’t care about appearances and how he looked to anyone else. you were the one he desperately hoped would give him some type of approval, after all.

long day of walking and your feet are sore? he’ll do what he never would with anyone else and kneel before you like a damn dog, taking your shoes off for you and begin massaging your feet. something else sore? go ahead and tell him while he’s massaging and he’ll change his spot of focus without a second thought.

cold around him? he’s taking off anything he can to give to you in hopes it would keep you warm—please tell him to stop stripping in public. dropped something? oh, and it so happened to fall in the depths of the ocean? he’s diving right in. no equipment is needed for the best setter in the world (he almost died that day).

god forbid he see you with another man. he’s coming up to you like you’re a spiker he needs to claim, slinging his arm around you and butting straight into the conversation. if the guy’s far too close for his comfort, he’ll make sure to give you a big wet kiss on your lips as well. he’ll give you a list of reasons about why the other guy was far from your league once you two are alone as well.

miya atsumu hates losing after all, and he vowed to never lose you to another man.
