Can't help but wonder how Jester probably cringes inside every time Pierrot has one of his “episodes”. History is repeating itself yet again, only this time it's infinitely worse, because it's about a human.

I mean, how was Pierrot even planning to keep something like that a secret from everyone else?

[blanc2028]

I think he got attached to me

Fanart from Eclipse of the visual novel name Escape line

Creator : @systemtide

[banzaitaka]

Jester is on his waaaaay

At this point, I'm almost done with the lineart

[banzaitaka]

Pierrot, my love💛Gonna draw the others like this too. Feel free to use for yourself so long as you credit me!

Sketch and lineart under the cut

Not to brag, but....I snagged a photo with a Harlequin cosplayer today

THEY WERE SO SWEET, apologised for not wearing the gloves, but like HUH😭honey...fuck them gloves frfr

Didn't want to bother them, so I held myself back in my geeking (did tell them how I screeched to myself when I saw them though)

@nekoboydreams So excited to see people love the game as much as I do here in Germany!! Once I get art commissions, I will use the money to buy materials to make a tfc cosplay. Don't know who yet though.... ANYWAYS

[banzaitaka]

I'll be at a con all weekend! So excited!

First time at a con in YEARS and first time wearing my brand new Obanai Cosplay too😭 let's hope the weather has mercy cuz before even going to con I have to climb a mountain so I can help my cousin with his own cosplay

[ondeathsdoorofficial]

Let's go

Prologue teaser for Self-Isekai

My life is boring. So very boring. Every day the same routine, the same mundane problems and simple fixes. I got no dreams, no aspirations. Just surviving, never living. Good thing my mother is a witch with incredible foresight.

My neighbours must think someone broke in because of all the ruckus I make looking for a cardboard box in every corner of my humble home. It’s been a long time since I have last seen it. Half my mind even feared it was thrown away by accident, being mistaken with a different box full of trash.

My anxiety disappears the second I see the grey box with green stripes. It’s about the same size as a regular shoe box, but inside is something of immeasurable worth. Excitedly, I sit down on my couch in the livingroom, pulling the couch table closer to set the box ontop before opening it.

Inside lays a book. It’s leather bound and snapped shut with a metal snap button. Dragons, stars and vines are engraved all over the leather and painted in with gold and silver paint. Despite the grand appearance, the book itself was rather thin. Like a simple notebook one might use at school.

I smile warmly as I take it in my hands, fond memories of my childhood flooding my minds. I remember playing pretend with this book whenever my mother let it lay within reach. I would pretend to be a powerful witch, casting spells left and right. Aspiring to be just like my mother.

My mother gifted it to me on the day I moved out, telling me to look inside when life just doesn’t feel right. When I’m in need of a change of pace and she couldn’t be there for me. Since she is currently travelling through countries on the other side of the planet, and I am one step away to becoming a literal houseplant, I’d say I am right to look inside.

I unclasp the button and flip open the book to the very first page.

My dear MC, seems like you aren’t happy with your current life and remembered this little gift I gave you. In this book, you will find a spell guide to enter Endlos, a world unlike this one. Unlike the magic-less planet we call our home, Endlos is near bursting with magic, mythical creatures and much more. It is a world I treasure like a second home. Besides the spell guide are a few notes on important knowledge of that world. And you also won’t need to worry about a place to sleep. At the very end of this book is a letter to an old apprentice of mine who will be more than happy to take you in for however long you like. The spell will guide you directly to the gates of his property. You see your mama has thought of everything :) My only regret is that I can’t be with you on your journey. Tell Miellis to send me a message of your arrival as contacting me by phone might be difficult depending on where I am. Have fun, stay safe, I love you. Mama<3

“Holy shit…”

I stare wide eyed at the page. A spell to travel to another world?? Am I dreaming?? I flip through the pages. Exactly as mother’s message said, there are notes upon notes about Endlos’ currency, culture, plants and even critters I’m sure to run across, all accompanied with drawing and glued in photographs. As I reach the last page, a folded letter slips out. Probably the letter she mentioned. But my attention was focused on the drawn sigil in the middle of the page.

Quickly -due to my growing excitement- I skim through the instructions. Sit down on the floor with anything you want to bring close to your body, then trace the sigil with your finger twice before closing your eyes and chanting Endlos 5 times.

It seems so grossly simple that I need a moment to believe it actually works. But I know my mother and trust in her abilities, so it must work! But that only makes my head spin even more. Before my eyes is the literal key to a world full of magic. Mama never took me with her when she travelled worlds, saying I should focus on my life in this one until I was old enough to travel by myself.

Guess that day finally arrived.

But am I really ready for this? Do I go through with this?

Introducing...Heina!

Since the character isn't completely fleshed out yet, changes might be made in the future.

Heina is one of the 5 main characters in Self-Isekai and will be available as a love interest or a friend. Being the oldest of 6 kids in total, she grew up with a lot of responsibilities, but she did not let that drag her down. Instead, she used the situation to grow into a leader type of person. Now, she can manage her current household while still having enough time and energy for herself.

Her free time is mostly spent in her garden. There, she cultivates all kinds of magical plants; from healing herbs to walking trees, she got them and loves them all.

Have a question about her, or maybe want to ask her something yourself? Feel free to!

[ondeathsdoorofficial]

Self-Isekai

Life is boring. Luckily your mother is a witch and left you with a way to travel to another world. A world with magic. Take a little vacation in the Mansion Of Sanctuary, meet new people and learn about their passions. Make friends for life, or maybe even fall in love.

This is a little big project. A test, a practice round before I dive into working on On Death's Door; a visual novel planned to be much broader than this. Here is what's planned:

5 love interests (Two guys, two girls, one non-binary person)

3 endings for each person (romantic, platonic, non-personal platonic)

3 days worth of alone time with each person + group activity days

ability to select which person to spend time with

name and pronoun selection (he, she, they)

No description or visual for the player to maximise inclusion

Feel absolutely free to ask questions. I am so hyped for this since it has been my dream to make my own visual novel for a long time. Character sheets are being made as we speak and will promptly posted on this blog.

[raven-at-the-writing-desk]

I saw a post from personal blog said that Blazing Jewel ruins Riddle gentleman concept. For context, in middle talk, he pointed at Leona and audiences with forefinger, often get angry at senpai, standing with cross arms in front of chest. But some peoples in comment said he never been written as a gentleman from very beginning. So, if it likes what they said, what's happen with him in event like masquerade or ghost marriage where he escorts MC and help they dance? Is that fanon, and does that mean he dont have any character development or improvement from book 1, just be a tyrant as usual?

I don’t think either side is entirely correct, because Riddle isn’t as simple of a character as anyone is making him out to be. He can be a gentleman at times, and he can be a tyrant at other times. The two aren’t mutually exclusive, even post-OB (because on the journey of self-improvement, it’s very easy to fumble, regress, etc.). Plus, personalties are not all-or-nothing; traits and behaviors often spill over into and inform other traits snd behaviors.

See, Riddle can be gentlemanly because his mother gave him a very proper upbringing. He’s had this etiquette drilled into him from a very young age. However, this doesn’t mean Riddle is a gentleman by default or that his manners are always perfect. A lot of his behaviors are also petulant or immature. He has very inflexible thinking, he often loses his temper and berates peers, he demands that things be his way or the highway, he acts arrogant, he’s neurotic, etc. Riddle just acts differently based on the context of the current scene, which is true of all characters. (For example, you would act differently around your friends vs with parents vs with teachers; you would act differently if you were happy vs sad vs angry, etc.)

Things like pointing at others can easily be explained away as part of Riddle’s arrogance (as he tends to believe he or the rules are, above all else, “right”). His anger isn’t limited to underclassmen; Riddle rages at upperclassmen and grown adults/figures of authority, such as the Ferrymen, if they are threats and/or break his beloved rules. (In the case of the Ferryman, they attacked him and entered NRC campus without the proper permissions being granted to them.) And finally, standing with his arms folded isn’t that unusual if we were to go off the sprites in the game. Riddle does that motion quite often, and I don’t think it’s out of character since this kind of body language often indicates a character with narrow-mindedness or someone who adopts an authoritative role.

It’s not correct to say that Riddle doesn’t grow at all during the course of the main story. He clearly has breakthroughs at various points, like being able to hold back his temper multiple times + calmly fox Yuu’s crooked tie in book 2, getting along with + compromising with Azul in book 6, his book dream 7 segment, etc. What is incorrect is assuming that his character arc was transitioning from tyrant to gentleman. Again, Riddle was always both.

Regarding Glorious Masquerade and Ghost Marriage, I believe that Riddle asks Yuu to dance and/or escorts Yuu only in his cards’ voice lines or in fandom works. On top of the events not being canon to the main story, voice lines shouldn’t be taken as canon because these are often fanservice meant for the player and does not accurately reflect the characters’ relationships with Yuu. (Otherwise, Yuu would be a LOT friendlier with everyone in the cast, and we just don’t see this actually being the case.)

Lonely, lonely

I’m so lonely😔

Wanted this to be Harlequin and Pierrot (tfc) first, but since this is my first time animating like this- yeah no. Another time maybe.

Oh well, this is one of the characters from the game I’m working on. Feel free to ask about it, would be happy to yap

[samuraioftheopera]

Hello ! (I’m not sure if your requests are open but I love your fics so I really wanted to try 😭) Could you maybe write a Genya x Male reader one ? Where like Genya deals with confusion and internalised homophobia after realising he fell in love with a guy ? IM SO SORRY IF YOU DONT DO MALE READERS OR SMTH LIKE THAT, HAVE A GOOD DAY !!

SUMMARY: Genya's emotionally constipated. It's the Shinazugawa genes - but even more so when it comes to...guys?! A/N: KYAAH Ty anon glad you enjoyed, and DW my inbox is open anytime I'm just a little slow in writing rn because of exams and I'm moving house. I have done male reader before but I'm not too used to writing gay T-T so I'm sorry if this turned out the way you wanted WARNINGS: Male reader in case you don't read the asks and only warnings/Minor swearing

Much romance happens at Kimetsu Academy.

There's Zenitsu and Nezuko, although Genya considers it more of an obsession on the blonde’s end seeing as Nezuko doesn't openly display any signs of liking him back romantically, whatever the delusional idiot thinks. There's also Tanjiro and Kanao, the perfect epitome of friends to lovers. And whatever Aoi and Inosuke have going on.

But none of that ever happened to Genya. Sure, he thought the occasional girl was pretty or nice, but aside from the fact he explodes into a tomato just from a simple “hello” he's never been actually interested. Of course that occasionally made him feel a bit left out amongst his friends, like he was missing something great, but hey, Muichiro and him would be single pringles forever and that was fine.

(Genya's very betrayed to find out Muichiro had received a confession…and was considering accepting it.)

But it was a little unbelievable to the Kamaboko Squad that in all of the sixteen years of his life he had never had a crush, hence the interrogation they were giving him that particular day during lunch.

“Have you never fallen in love? At all?!” Genya wants to snort; as if Zenitsu would ever notice anybody else's love life but his own.

“HAHAHAHAA! LOSER!”

Tanjiro calmly shoved Inosuke away from a fuming Genya, smiling brightly. “I'm sure Genya has one! And we'll be more than happy to help him confess!”

“Aren't crushes supposed to be secret-”

“Then we have to figure out who it is first!” Zenitsu hollers.

“No-”

“Is it Kocho?!”

Kanao, Tanjiro and Genya both look scandalised but Zenitsu barrels on. Aoi face palms. Inosuke steals everyone's food.

“Is it Kanrojii?!”

“Why is everyone you're listing so much older than me!”

“OKAY, OKAY! Uh…Koyuki-”

“SHE'S ENGAGED TO SOMEONE ELSE!”

“Sheesh, I got it, stop yelling! That Shabana girl?”

“Just why-”

“Maybe Genya does like someone but just doesn't realize it,” Kanao offers timidly.

“That's a good point, Kanao!” Tanjiro beams, causing Genya and Kanao to flush red but for entirely different reasons.

“How am I supposed to know if I like someone?”

“If you find them cute?”

“That seems really superficial,” Aoi says disapprovingly.

“You'll get really nervous around them, like your heart speeds up. You'll probably stare at them a lot too, and want to do lots of things for them, maybe hold open doors?” Tanjiro nods wisely.

“And they're the first person you look at to see if they're laughing at a joke,” Kanao agrees.

Genya considers. “Then none of the girls you just listed, honestly.”

“It's alright, you'll find the one for you one day. There's no rush now.”

“HAHAHA! TENYA IIDA IS GOING TO BE ALONE FOREVER! HAHAHHAA!”

“MY NAME IS GENYA!”

Truth be told Genya had lied.

It wasn't a lie exactly either. More of…an avoidance of the truth. He didn't feel that way about any girls Zenitsu had mentioned, or any of the girls at school.

But he did like someone, yes.

Or no. Definitely not. It couldn't possibly be.

“Oh, hey, Shinazugawa.” Your simple wave as you joined his side outside the classroom door was enough to get his heart pounding and slightly sweaty like he had just suffered an entire class with the gym teacher Tomioka.

“Thanks for holding the door!” You call out over your shoulder, flashing him a bright smile while entering the class and taking your seat. You immediately turn to start talking with your friends, something Genya's extreme thankfully for because then you can't see the tomato red that's painting his face as he's still stuck, frozen and speechless, by the door. Only Iguro-sensei’s cold “Do you plan to have the lesson by the door or something?” Shook him out of it.

You're so confusing, Genya thinks, averting his eyes when you catch his with a mouthed “oops” and raised eyebrows, because he wants to revel in your attention and hide in a hole from it at the same time.

It was a pleasant kind of confusion, though. The kind he wouldn't mind thinking about forever; it gave him an oddly warm, fidgety feeling inside like he had just drunk an entire thermos of hot chocolate and got marshmallows to top it off. Then he promptly slaps himself (mentally) because he shouldn't be thinking about this, that and you.

Not like it stopped him from staring at the back of your head all through class. He doesn't realize it until your friend turns their head around and makes a face at him, leaning closer to you to whisper something. Genya panics and ducks his head, burying it into his arms for a few minutes before he judges it's safe to look up.

And when he does you're smiling at him knowingly, as if the both of you knew something the rest don't. Oh good lord.

Your laughter is something Genya wishes he could make as well, when the whole class watches Iguro-sensei trying to tell Inosuke off, but the dumbass can't get the teacher’s name right at all. He finds himself laughing as well, a combination of that and because of you before it hits him.

“You'll get really nervous around them, like your heart speeds up. You'll probably stare at them a lot too, and want to do lots of things for them, maybe hold open doors?”

Oh shit. Check, check, check.

“And they're the first person you look at to see if they're laughing at a joke.”

And check?!

Shit shit shit shit shit-

Genya groans. He does like you after all.

But that's not right, it's got to be wrong.

You're a boy. Genya's not gay…at least he didn't think so…Then again he's never actually liked a girl. But he's never liked a boy either. Until you.

Forget it! You're not a crush, you're the reason why Genya is going to drive himself crazy right now! Hell, why did the idea feel so wrong but so right at the same time?

Genya rubbed his temples. If he was being honest the idea only seemed so wrong because…well, because he's just never considered that possibility before. It just hasn't really occured to him he might be attracted to the same gender. It's a new concept, yes, but…not really a terrible one. He got all red with girls yes but it wasn't because he like-liked them or thought they were cute.

Was crushing on a guy really going to be any different than a girl then? Genya groaned again. Judging by his behaviour these days…yeah, not really.

Okay, then if hypothetically he DID like you and he liked guys…how would Sanemi and his friends react? Would they still want to hang out with him? Would Sanemi still…consider him his brother? What would his mom think?

What a headache. What would…you think? It'd be pretty embarrassing to like you and you're straight, Genya thought. Then again was he even sure he was gay, even certain he had a big fat crush on you?

“Hey, you alright?” The voice startles Genya out of his thoughts. He lifts up his head and looks around, startled to see everyone's left. Shit, he hadn't even realized class was over. Idiot.

He glances to his left and nearly dies of fright.

You cock an eyebrow. “Um, seeing a ghost, Genya?”

“No!” He just about shouts, flailing his arms as he tries to stop himself from falling out of his chair. “I'm fine! Really! Sorry…just, just kinda out of it.”

“Wanna talk about it?”

Yeah, let's talk about how I've just realized I might be-

“It's fine, it's nothing important.” Genya notices your fidgeting however. “What about you?”

You hesitate. You're playing with your sleeves quite nervously. It's making him paranoid.

“I'm just…there's a new arcade that just opened up.”

“Sounds fun,” Genya offers. He's got barely enough brain cells still functioning from the close proximity between you both.

“I was wondering - um, do you wanna go with me? I can buy all the tokens,” you quickly blurted out and held your breath.

“Sure.”

“N-no. Just you and me. Like on a date.” You rub the back of your neck, looking away. “No - no pressure or anything! I know you might not be into guys, you might already like a girl-"

“You're gay.”

You wince at his tone. Genya wishes he hadn't sounded so accusing. “Last I checked, yeah.”

“Sounds fun,” Genya repeats dumbly, because holy shit, you like him you like guys too he likes guys he really wants to go to the arcade with you oh thank god-

You blink. “So that's a…yes?”

“Absolutely.” Genya waves his hands frantically. “If you're still up for it! Nothing’s awkward! I - I do want to go as a date, not as friends, and, uh-"

He snaps his head away, embarrassed, but he glances back long enough to see you grinning like you've won the lottery.

"Does 2 pm work for you?"

Shit. He really does like you after all. And with the way you're smiling at him like that maybe he can deal with whatever bullshit that's going to come next.

“Hey Genya, do you want to come over this weekend?”

“Muichiro wants to go to that pizza place again.”

The Tokito twins stare at him expectantly over the usual din of the Kamaboko Squad's usual shenanigans. Now or never.

“Sorry, I'm busy.”

“With what?” Muichiro looks out off; Yuichiro frowns in surprise.

“With someone.”

The silence was so thick you could've cut it with a knife - or Zenitsu's screaming.

“WHO?”

“HAR?!”

“Is it a date?” Tanjiro managed to slap a hand over the blonde's mouth while Aoi deals with Inosuke. The twins and Kanao's mouths hang open in surprise.

Genya picked at his food. “Yeah. At the new arcade.”

“Congratulations!”

“I thought you were planning to be single forever-”

“Shut up, Mui!”

“With who?"

He says your name and again the silence is thick.

Tanjiro's eyes light up in recognition and shock. “Isn't that the new boy?”

Genya nods stiffly.

“You're…gay?” Kanao asks tentatively.

Genya nods again.

“I had no idea! I never would've guessed either.” Tanjiro shakes his head, stunned. Much to Genya's relief…he's smiling? “But good for you, Genya, I'm sure you'll enjoy the date!”

This wasn't so bad after all. It's like a weight’s been lifted off his shoulders. Now it's just how well…Sanemi will take it and his family. Probably not as easy.

“I thought it was a little weird you rejected that cute girl the other day.” Muichiro looks excited. “Now I've got a gay best friend!”

“What are you, twelve?” Yuichiro grumbles, but turns to Genya. “Have a good time then.”

“THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE! DON'T SHOCK US LIKE THAT, GENYA!” Zenitsu finally squawks, clutching his heart.

“Wait, what's gay?” Inosuke's lost. “Is Genma happy or something?!”

Never mind.

“Damn, I knew you were good at shooting, but basketball too?” You wiggle your eyebrows at him, pretending to throw an imaginary ball as Genya throws an actual one through the basket easily.

“Heh, this one's just easy since it's so near.” The machine flashes lights and beeps, displaying a new highest score. “And kinda short.”

“You are pretty tall,” you agreed, counting the leftover tokens. “Hey, we still have enough for that claw machine!”

“Seriously?”

So far the date's going pretty well. Genya hadn't made a fool of himself when you showed up dressed up in that letterman jacket and excitedly tackled him yelling about how you managed to get about an entire bag's worth of tokens. You both had spent your time mostly fooling around playing air hockey, shooting games (he had a moment of crisis before sitting next to you in the cramped space), he got forced to dance with you, you claimed he cheated at the racing, he won you a figurine as an apology for accidentally smacking your hand during Whack-A-Mole. Genya was kind of regretting that now, because you were now convinced Genya had amazing luck and could continue to win you more prizes. But as Sanemi said - a million times - those things were a scam, so Genya compromised by saying if only there was tokens leftover from the basketball game.

Alas and alack, he supposed, but you were already speeding towards the claw machine.

“Come on, come on, almost there, almost there!” Your chanting is barely heard over the obnoxious arcade music but you're practically breathing down his neck.

“Okay, okay, I got it, shut up for a sec.” Genya's grip on the controls is so tight he's actually afraid he might rip out the joystick by mistake like Sanemi last time…although Sanemi had done that on purpose during his rage quit and since had been banned from that particular arcade.

“Dear Kami-sama, please, please, please-”

“SHIT.”

“NOOO! So close!” Your head's tossed back in an exaggerated groan, flipping off the stupid claw that let go just a second too early. “I could've won that Hashira figurine!”

“I was the one playing!” Genya protested.

“I got the tokens!”

“I offered to pay you back! You said no!”

You punched his shoulder playfully. “Hey, this was supposed to be my treat. You can pay for the next date.”

“Next - next what-"

“Oh jeez, your face is so red now. Let's get some fresh air; I know a good dessert store.”

Genya's down bad alright.

“Where the hell have you been?”

It's already late by the time Genya lets himself into the house. His siblings should've been asleep, his mom too, so hopefully he could…uh, break the news the next day, when he's written and planned everything out, chewed off his nails and get that support you promised him earlier.

Luck had decided to abandon him since his second attempt at the claw machine however, since now he's been caught kicking off his shoes and smiling down at his phone, at the picture you've sent him of the figurine in your shelf.

>>Maybe I'll get more from you

You wi<<

He shuts off his phone quickly. Sanemi’s sitting on the sofa, arms crossed and does not look like a happy camper. Genya tries for an innocent smile. He probably looks like he has a stroke. If Sanemi were a cop, every criminal would be cracking in less than a minute under his interrogations.

“Out with a friend. Sorry I'm late, I was talking them back home.”

“Really? Saw all your friends - Tokito twins and that Kamado kid - earlier today. Try again."

“Someone else.”

“Cut to the chase, Genya, you were out on a date, weren't you?” Sanemi barks.

Genya's shoulders slump. “Yeah. Please don't be mad, I did tell Mom.”

“You should focus on studying. Your math grades are still too low.” Sanemi's expression softens, just slightly. "Who's the lucky girl?"

“Ah.”

“I swear to god, if it's that Shabana girl-”

“It's a guy.”

A very awkward beat of silence.

“WHO?!”

Genya almost expects to be attacked when he says your name. Or mauled after Sanemi demands every detail of what went down at the arcade. Maybe thrashed while finally confessing yes, he's not straight. But not stand there while Sanemi stares at him, strangely quiet.

“You two didn't do anything suspicious?”

Nope. You'd been quite understanding when he admitted he was still kind of getting used to the newness of…all this and offered to save a kiss for next time, causing him to explode into scarlet and try to poke you with his straw. “Aniki!”

“Is this a new thing or have you been…keeping this from me?” Unbelievable. His older brother almost looks hurt by that notion.

“A new thing, I swear, I wasn't planning on keeping anything from you, I was just waiting for the right time and right thing to say and I - I didn't know how you'd react.”

“Well…” Sanemi mutters something unintelligible, eyes moving away slightly.

“Um…what?”

“I SAID, AS LONG AS YOU'RE HAPPY WITH HIM, IT'S FINE BY ME! NOW GO TO SLEEP!”

Genya couldn't stop his grin. “Really? Thank - thank you, Aniki, and okay, I will.”

“And don't do anything too intimate before you're married!”

You spat out your straw. “He said what?”

Genya takes a long sip of his latte, slipping his hand into yours. “I didn't make that up.”

“No,” You say, shaking your head. “That sounds like Shinazugawa.”
