"Liar meets Liar"

https://archiveofourown.org/works/62503537

After coming clean to her classmates and apologizing, Zoé really thought she was finally free from lying and pretending.

Instead, she met someone whose web of lies was so massive and intricate that she could end up wrapped around it herself if she wasn't careful.

Little oneshot I made, centered around the start of a storyline between the recident lie-experts Zoé and Lila that I wish the show had explored. Might turn in into a full series of one shots later on.

So...can we all agree that Denji and Reze have the best start-ups to their devil transformations?

Pulling a cord or a pin is just a much cleaner and dynamic motion than whatever this fuckers have going on.

Sorry Quanxi. You're cool, but pulling out an arrow that's way too long for your head is kinda the less cool thing you've done.

And if you asked me who has the best start-up, then it's not much of a contest:

Her head literally explodes! AND she even says "Boom" while doing it!

Sorry Denji but you can't beat this level of coolness.

Your Reze fic got me thinking of a theory that would make for a pretty dramatic reveal about her origins if true.

Now stay with me here...

Santa Claus is her mom!

(that sounds so funny out of context lol)

Or, more accurately, the woman who's that body belonged to was Reze's mom.

Maybe she was like Tolka, an apprentice of the former Santa that was ignorant of their intentions. And when she found out, she abandoned kid Reze so Santa Claus couldn't reach her nor use her for contracts.

Then again, this is Chainsaw Man so her motives or character could've been a lot less pure...

There's a good amount of resemblance between them and both lived in the Soviet Union, for what the fan wiki told me.

And considering you've beem building up those gaps in memory when it comes to her family, and how the International Assasins arc is what follows, this would be a great dramatic pay-off.

This theory could be dead-on or comically incorrect haha!

So I’ve actually heard this before. People bring up their appearance and the fact that both are from the Soviet Union. I’ll say that canonically, I don’t think there’s ever been anything that contradicts this. Reze was just an orphan when she was taken for experimentation, and the Doll Devil could’ve taken her mother. Though of course, it’s never been confirmed by the narrative or Fujimoto.

In my fic, I’ve even considered having the Doll Devil’s host and Reze have some kind of dynamic. The only issue is that Reze probably doesn’t remember her parents, and I don’t think the Doll Devil really cares lol. And Reze would hate her since she acts like Makima 2.0

It’s definitely interesting to explore though, and it’s funny that it could be possible. One of the reasons Reze’s living to international assassin could’ve been interesting because of all the potential dynamics. It’s makes me excited to get to that arc in my own fic!

Hope this was a good answer!

[8fmg8]

Good answer! Thank you for answering.

And yeah I'm very excited to read your the International Assassins Arc. Seeing her fight and talk with Quanxi feels like it has so much potential.

Seeing how she fits into the batshit insane battles in general is so exciting.

But I'm just gonna say that: if Chainsaw Man on fire was enough to beat a darkness-powered Santa Claus, with Reze there that creepy-ass doll is toast (literally). So yeah, curious to see how you write that too.

me and @microbiologistmusings made a guide! we were talking about how frustrating it can be when so much (well meaning!) art of wheelchair users seems to get the chairs...not quite right. so maybe this will help :) i had a lot of fun drawing it and thank u to levi for your unending wisdom <3

[sirakitz]

I saw that your profile has a lot of Sonadow and then I saw that your shadamy’s #1 hater (peak) so now I have a question… what do you think of Sonamy?

Personally we hate sonamy but we aren’t gonna hate the people who like it so… but we are curious and all considering your a really good Sonadow artist and us being a fictive heavy sys of over 20+ Sonic and shadow fictives alone (who ALL ship Sonadow btw and heavily support it) we just wanna know your view.

OH NO I WENT ON AN AUTISTIC RAMBLE

- 👟

(of the watermelon sys)

my ask box not only welcomes but actively encourages autistic rambles!!! i love reading them and i love answering questions :-) gives me a chance to ramble back

i don't ship nor do I enjoy sonamy but I kind of understand how people find it appealing? childhood friends to lovers, the act of running away instead of facing feelings, one fell first but the other fell harder... but I just think that Amy deserves better than that?????

I love love love love Amy Rose and honestly as someone who, when I was around 10-12, never considered the fact that I could be queer despite being aware of queerness and who dealt with a lot of comphet and acted SOOO similarly to amy towards my guy friends because I just sorta thought that that was what I was supposed to do.... I'm 100% projecting that onto Amy. she's my comphet queen and she deserves someone who loves her, someone that she doesn't have to chase, someone that can reciprocate her feelings whole heartedly!!

I have sooo much stuff drafted out for sonic and Amy's relationship and the way it evolves over time... there may even be a 6 page comic about amy in the works

(whattt who said that)

at the end of the day sonic loves amy deeply, but in a big brother sorta way (imo). and they'll always have each other's backs no matter what :-)

anyways Amy Rose has so much love in her heart and that's why she has three girlfriends

[8fmg8]

If Sonic is the embodiment of Freedom, then Amy is the embodiment of Love.

And as such, I headcanon it's very easy for other characters to fall in love with Amy or at least develop a little crush.

Not to mention she is a famous hero in her own right, so I can see her a few admirers.

In short, Amy has an insane amount of rizz 😎

Of course, it doesn't work on Sonic.

But it does on all his counterparts ('cause it's funny to me).

Surprise attack (found this one in my archives and decided to finish it)

[isabelaleleh]

Thought of making Musa in her fairy form, but them thought of the appeal of full on witch Darcy with casual Musa

[isabelaleleh]

I love the concept of Darcy dragging Musa down with her

Sooo guess who's back? I'm finally on vacation with now, which means I'm free to draw whatever I want, hooray!!
