you, artist online. somebody has referenced you in conversation irl by your online handle and somebody else knew who you were talking about. somebody has kept up closely with your posts for a period of time like their morning paper. somebody found a music artist because of you, thinks of you when they hear them on the radio. somebody followed you years ago and remembers you randomly even though they can't find you. somebody has screenshotted and saved your posts and sent them in discord servers. somebody has made your drawings their lockscreen, added them to their favorites folder and looked at them when they're going through some shit, has sent them to their best friend and sparked conversation in private chats. your art in particular could be the source of a keen sense of nostalgia for someone. maybe they've even printed out your images using their home printer and taped them to their bedroom wall and they look at it every day and they never even told you. isn't that scary? isn't that awesome? remember this well.
submit to the mortifying ordeal of being known so that you may turn around and see the impact you leave and the light you cast on others.
headcanon: just like Ryunosuke is the ancestor of Phoenix, the guy who brings wine to Barok to throw out of disdain for the idiotic ideas of lawyers, is the ancestor of the guy who brings coffee to Godot to spit out

Rotating Klint being 10 years older than Barok in my brain. He was Iris' age when his little brother was born!!!! What!!!!
Like we hear about them mostly when they're both adults and therefore much more similar but like a 15 year old Klint had a 5 year old Barok following him around like a duckling. That art of them at 11 and 21??? Like no wonder Barok was the little darling, Klint likely had to be the head of the household while Barok still had the demeanor of a squeaky toy
if you interpret the van zieks family's hair colors as something realistic, like klint and iris as ginger and barok as ashy brown, that's a perfectly valid interpretation of the anime art style and i support you
but to me these mfs are recognizable among the bulk of ordinary blonde and brunette londoners specifically for being ridiculously tall fairy creatures topped with pastel cupcake icing fantasy hair
