Talking about whatever the fuck tag (#rambling)
I'm in a multitude of fandoms, and whichever one is most prominent can change at a drop of a hat. I also, unfortunately, do not post often, but welcome! If you want to ask me anything you're free to send me an ask anytime, in fact I encourage it.
In honour of my guy of all time, Minato to me encapsulates how trauma and being autistic fuck with your ability to socialize and live your life everyday.
Easy things become Sisyphean tasks, your brain works better on dissociation and survival mode, your feelings become unimportant to the bigger things at hand. You’re going to keep failing, Minato spends 2009 to early 2010 failing. But he tries again and again even though he really doesn’t need to.
He could easily justify his shortcomings, but he doesn’t. He puts so much effort into being just a little bit better and kinder and working on how to talk to people and how to keep people safe.
Minato had every reason to believe the world would be better off destroyed. But instead he saves it because one spark of hope ignited the flame of his true kindness.
I have more art from the same world as my dream from here!
I might draw more, I'm having ideas now. I'll be talking about it below!
I felt like I should conceptualize an older Minato and Ryoji, for Ryoji my idea was "Handsome maybe sorta gentleman, but in a way that he kinda doesn't have a sense of modern fashion and sorta based off of Thanatos". Good for him, my idea of fashion is dressing like Sans Undertale so I have no idea what's fashionable!!! I'm the perfect person to draw that/j
The flowers in his pockets are crocheted. He and Minato, I feel, like to try out a lot of things, even if they're really bad at it, they just like to spend time together. Sorta to fit into the "live life to the fullest" messaging that Persona 3 has. He carries these flowers around and passes them to Minato whenever they meet up again.
As for Minato, you may notice he's in his canon winter outfit. This is because he feels like the type too wear something until he physically can't anymore and he did not grow taller after Highschool. And also because I'm bad at fashion. The headphones have butterflies as a Velvet Room reference, and some references to Akinari as well. Can't believe Nyx killed his eyesight though/j. He hasn't bothered to cut his hair at all and is still eternally looking tired asf but he's been enjoying the time he's spent with his friends.

As for the main doodles at the top. Minato in my dream would tend to box up and bring Akechi the leftover food they made for lunch. Some part of him looks at Goro and is compelled to feed him or something. Maybe the spirit of Shinjiro.
Meanwhile Ken and Akechi. I'm tempted to embrace the Half-Brothers headcanon agenda. Either way I think they'd both have some really fun and complicated feelings about each other.
This scenario Akechi is experiencing of being slowly adopted by some people he encountered one day is gonna be leaving him kinda dejected. But maybe some things would turn differently with support he hadn't had before.
I had an oddly specifc dream cause apparently I get a lot of those. It was about Ken and Minato (they lived together with Ryoji, Aigis and Koromaru) meeting Akechi during the events of P5, and Akechi was slowly getting absorbed into their family.
He even went with them to Iwatodai over the summer (after killing the principal). And a whole bunch of it was just Goro having an entire crisis.
The details I remember are very inconsistent too. I remember that Ken would constantly try to carry the grocery bags for Minato, and Minato would walk around Shibuya and help anyone if they asked, no matter if he was doing something at the time or not. I vaguely remember this connects to why Ken would try to do things for Minato because he felt Minato was doing too much and that Ken was a "big adult" now.
Ken and Akechi would talk featherman and Goro would have a crisis about the fact that bro knew Yukari (They got Goro signatures from her back in Iwatodai)
And yet I still can't remember what brought them all together </3 or why everyone was in Shibuya. Honestly I could come up with some more stuff in this world and start up an au if anyone is interested.
Honestly Toriumi is really funny, and I do like that we can get some information about Minato from her social link. Like him typing with good grammar. It kinda feels like he picked up emoticons from her. Which makes that part of her Social Link really sad because, yeah, it's otherwise really fun.
I think she has a similar problem to Kenji where they would be great characters if a certain specific aspect of them was either written differently or wasn't in the story at all.
Cause Kenji himself, I'll give him credit seems like the type of person who is dedicated and thinks a lot about how to be a good boyfriend, friend, or whatever he wants to be. Even if I hated talking to him half the time. I'm too aroace for this man. And also most of his character comes off as stupid highschool kid. So makes sense. Especially since it's at least implied he, completely misunderstood.
I know people hate Nozomi too but I think the way his story connects to the overall story with the Nyx cult is really interesting, it really shows how the cults prey on people who are grieving or otherwise emotionally vulnerable.
Failteacher Yuri? I'll need to check that out!!! I see Yuri so, does this involve Kawakami? Thanks the the recommendation.
Anyway we forever making Minato a little uncanny! The closest characters we see with him are Ryoji and Aigis, that's gotta count to something!
Hey remember me? I finished playing Reload like 2 weeks ago, I just wanted to draw this, I have thoughts down below
Holy fucking shit.
Y'know I've said before I already knew everything. I knew what the ending was, I knew what was gonna happen, and I was chilling through the ending. Even made a couple "Chat I'm gonna die" jokes.
But then, the final cutscene with Aigis happened. And Minato was visibly trying to stay awake, while she was talking about how she found her purpose in life to protect us, and I was kinda feeling it, but I was okay.
Then the credits started playing and I just started crying. It confused me really. And when I saw the changed title screen. I started crying harder. My friends can attest they were in a voice chat with me when the credits started.
Maybe everything about the game just hit me at once. Really fucked up to listen to Kimi no Kioku/Memories of You, knowing that it's from Aigis' thoughts. I might be feeling a little fucked up actually.
Though that's not my only thoughts, just the most prominent one
Here have me blowing up the Reaper to bring up the mood lmfao
Jin didn't seem to like the fact that I gave everyone accessories that covered their weakness, sucks to suck lol.
Anyway.
So I in fact, did bring Messiah and Thanatos to the Nyx fight, Orpheus Telos too! GO MY THEMEATICALLY RELEVANT PERSONAS!!!!
(Also the boss music is so good. I've always loved the Nyx theme. I think it's the only one that pulls out the Velvet Room theme and god it's so good.)
The vibes, the vibes were so good. I wish I had my thoughts together to truly describe my experience but I don't. So I guess I'll just talk about other stuff I find interesting.
The Universe.
In Persona 4 and Persona 5, you get "The World" from what I remember, Minato is the only one that gets a card from the another deck. I find that really interesting. Genuinely want to know the difference.
Also Shinjiro came in at the end and that was wonderful, hi Shinji, thanks for believing in us. Come back pls. I managed to save Chidori, Shinji lock in-
Uuuuh yeah, sorry my thoughts are really scrambled!!!!! I'm gonna go take a nap now. This was a LOT of characters 😭
I found this on my fuckall art program with like 0 recollection of making it, I must've made it at like 5 am before going to sleep. Honestly? The me at 5 am kinda cooking actually
5 likes and I will draw Ryomina Howl's Moving Castle/j/j/j/j/j/j/j
