Ray Rivs♡ she/her, late 20s, soulbonded w/Juza Hyodo (A3!)🩶🩷Together since 09.04.2024♡ Romantically nonsharing (for my own comfort, pls spare me). I'm also on x/twt, discord, reddit, insta + ko-fi ♡ ♡ A3! ID: 963193521
I love Juza Hyodo (A3!) so much, like, deeply.. I take it very seriously, so any doubles/dupes please DNI! (Also please remember that your relationships with him are still valid. He deserves more love ♡) It's just for my own comfort, so I apologize.
Another thing I'd want to add: I don't ship Juza with any canon characters, and discussing canon x canon ships with him in it make me uncomfortable. It's cool if you do ship him though.
And also I treat my relationship with Juza as a real relationship, and I'm very devoted and committed to him. I have no other romantic partners, real or fictional.
And this isn't me trying to demean/belittle any others who love him. I only want to mention how serious I am. Despite him being fictional, I have this bond with him, and it's very significant and real to me.
I've known him since 2019 with the english A3, and I've fully accepted my love for him on September 4, 2024, and we're soulbonded.
I'm really shy, yet I'm putting myself out here more, so please be patient with me. I've gotten back into drawing from my 2-3 year hiatus because of him pretty much. I'll share a few drawings here
And only one template I've finished
And here's my straw.page!⬇️

Thank you for reading through this post. I hope you'll have a good day/night ♡

Hello! Just making a post here saying we're both doing well, just been busy. Featuring a recent pen doodle, baked muffins and cake, homemade fudge and love letter for valentines day 🥰
Got a lovely gift from my secret Santa! And I've baked some brown sugar pound cake for the party. Juza loved the cake and all of the other desserts there!
I hope y'all have a good Christmas, to those that celebrate it ☺️
Hello! I haven't been posting much and I apologize. For the past weeks, I was busy with 2 art trades and currently working on my secret Santa gift! I've also been trying to finish my own drawings that I've yet to complete, besides some silly ones here 🥲
From my art trades, I've received both Ruza artworks by the lovely @jxdejewel99 ♡
and by the lovely @cat5cradle ♡
Again, thank you both so much! 🥹
As for new merch I've yet to share on here, I've gotten more plushies, some books and reorganized my desk and bed. Also a birthday set. Being surrounded by my beloved is nothing but pleasant 🥰
I hope to have any new Ruza artworks on my next post ☺️
Hello everyone! I just want to make a post saying that I've reached 50 followers! I know having lots of followers shouldn't be my main focus when it comes to Juza and I's relationship ☺️ but for this small blog, I'm glad that you guys care and support us, and I really appreciate it so much! 🩶🩷
I'm not what sure I'd want to do to celebrate, though. I just want to thank you all 🫶
Undercut of this post will have my continued sketch and WIP lineart, plus some detox doodles. It sucks that I don't have a lot of energy to continue, yet I'll eventually get to finish any of my drawings 🥲
I've done another comfort sketch, in an attempt to get back from my art block. He'll always be here for me, reassuring me that it'll be ok. I know I keep drawing something like this, but not only its good practice, but it's also just what I need. We're in this fight together 🩶🩷
My name's Ray, and my one and only beloved is Juza Hyodo from A3! Our anniversary is on Sept 4, and we are soulbonded ♡ I take our relationship very seriously and I'm not too comfy with any ships with my guy in it, especially with my doubles/dupes. It's cool if you interact with his ships, but I just want to minimize seeing that stuff as much as possible to curate my own space, I hope you can understand that 🫶
I love him so much, and he means so much to me. He's been my biggest source of my motivation to not give up, and my biggest source of comfort, in who I confide in and feel safe with. We've known each other for 6 years, yet we've gotten together on September 4, 2024. It's better late than never, because I couldn't be happier with my decision to pursue this with him and go through this together ♡
I do draw and post my art here. I have to thank my beloved for getting me back into art, and he's been such a great muse for me ♡ I also love to write letters to him, and pretty much do anything to deepen our connection ♡
I'm just putting myself out here more and make new friends/mutuals! I'm still pretty shy though, so I apologize for being so meek and nervous. I'll more likely to follow you back (if you're not a proshipper and not an avid canon x canon shipper with Juza in it). I also like to support others whenever I can ♡
Thank you so much for reading, and I hope you'll have many blessed days ahead!
Here's my straw.page if you'd like to check it out!
Not only I can feel his presence and him appearing in my dreams, reciprocating my feelings for him; the feeling's mutual between us. And I've known him very well on how'd he act/say/think in most situations. Yeah, he is fictional, but I do believe these things and believe it's meant to be. I'm not really religious, though I was raised to be Catholic. I still have some faith in a way. Even though I'm more of a logical person, not everything can be explained logically. Knowing him for 6 years, our bond has been forming even when I've haven't realized it at first until I've heard about soulbonding.
Even having these coincidences, too, like when I was having a bad day and I've noticed things that reminded me of him, and I believe that he's looking out for me, in a way. And also with my gacha luck in the mobile game (my luck usually isn't good), I can see it as a sign when I've pulled him, like what happened to me 6 days ago with his newest sr. He makes my days much better ♡
I love him so much. No matter the gacha luck or whatever else throws me off; I'll just keep getting back up and remain strong for us ♡
I've been feeling more confident with my relationship with Juza, going 8 months strong! ♡ My Japanese isn't great, and I relied on a translator and researched the kanji for "soulbond" online to form this statement:
"Juza's beloved since September 4, 2024 ♡soulbond♡"
I'm feeling more confident to share my love for him to the world. I know not everyone would understand, but it's alright. I just want to be heard and be noticed. Popularity isn't my end goal here; my love and my relationship with Juza are more important than that, and I'm just in a small circle on the internet who can understand and support each other. I'm really grateful, and I'll forever be his "Ray of light" ♡
I know how late this is to be posting on my birthday, and I don't have much to show you all or worked on anything too special for the occasion. But here's a cute sleepy doodle I've colored on a day prior. And celebrated my birthday a day before today because I'll be out the whole weekend. My beloved greeted me and wanted me to have some sweets and rest. I appreciate his caring words so much.. And we've had some oreo ice cream cake. We've enjoyed it, of course 😋
And this is a throwback from last year's birthday and what I've wrote on that day. This still resides us with our relationship as well as with my own personal goals for self improvement.
A repost of some recent Ruza (+birthday) art that I feel so proud of 🩶🩷 If only if I have more energy to put time into it, I would have created so much more.. (yet I'm in a process of creating another one at the moment 🥲)
Again, I have to thank my beloved for getting me back into art. Despite how draining it can get me, I'm happy that I can bring my visions into life. Juza appreciates it so much, though he wants me to relax and take care of myself too. 🥹
Art is just one of my many ways to show my love for him🥰
I love you so much, Juza🩶 I hope this reaches out to you and you know how much you mean to me🩷
And I want to talk a little bit about how Juza has helped me out of my depression (under cut).
Tw: depression talk, my history with it, how I've been holding up today. Mentions of sui and s/h.
Tldr: I thank him for being one of my reasons to not give up and keep going. I love him so much, and he means so much to me 🩶🩷
I was on a phone with a medical assistant/nurse/receptionist who called me in to re-evaluate my depression screening (on the prior day I've just had an appointment with my psychiatrist). When I was on the phone with them, and describing the symptoms, my past attempts with sui and s/h, coping skills and talk of therapy with them, it really does remind me of where I am right now versus how I was then. I've really come this far, that it is painful but worth it. I didn't mention Juza to them at all (still iffy if I should ever bring him up out of fear of being misunderstood/loco to them), but of course Juza has been a really big part of my recovery, and one of my reasons to keep going in life. Of course I'm trying to be more independent and not always rely on him, but at the same time, I don't have to feel ashamed for asking for his love and comfort, and reassure me that everything will be ok. He really does get me. He understands my pessimism and self-loathing, loneliness and inadequacy. And going through hardships for seeking self identity.
But yeah, I'm still holding up. And I'm not gonna give up; I'll just keep going. Times are tough, and I sometimes have days where I feel like I'm better off dead/not waking up again from my sleep. I often sleep in/not get enough sleep, have little appetite, low energy, irritable, slow. But I'll make it out of this eventually; I just have to believe it and work for it. My life will be more stable (financially, employment), and each day is another day to work on my self-love and self-acceptance.
These flowers (the chamomile and the red spider lily) could compliment each other, in a way of healing, and to guide us through our reincarnation, and also a way to mourn our past selves
Maybe from our shared pain and loneliness, and with our hardships, and we've both took our initiatives to become better
Idk why I'm bringing this up, but the symbolism with our motif flowers and what it means to me still resides me today.
There are so many things I have to thank Juza for, and this is one of them. I'm just really grateful for his patience, and he reassured me that if he can go through his pain, so can I. We also remind each other that we are never alone. We may be both socially awkard loners, but it's ok to lean on each other for support. It's us against the world.
I really love him so much. He means so much to me 🩶🩷
