If you see him, you're not the target

Decided to combine my 2 current hyperfixations together (purple minecraft guy and strange fascination with military jets)

Really happy with this one, experimenting lately with more graphic design elements in my art and typography, I'm a big fan of the metalheart and brutalism aesthetics.

You can't tell me elytras dont look like B2 wings

The words I committed to record were in full display here. All those words that I spat out under the excuse of being hurt by life and exhausted by living itself, they were coming back inside my brain.

From some place deep in my chest, I thought I heard something break. The whole world seemed to be shaking in my eyes.

One of the things I find the most tragic about kim dokja's character is that throughout most of the novel, he actually makes progress on working through some of his issues. He's not a static character, nor is he in a constant state of decline. His interactions with the people and world around him start to shape him into someone he's never been before: someone who can accept the care of others and see a life for himself within a community of people he genuinely loves.

Except that's all messed up once he confirms who the oldest dream really is.

This is evident through the way his goals shift over the course of the story:

"I want to see the ending of my favourite novel" is where he starts the scenarios at. It's a rather vague goal when you consider that the novel he's referring to is everything around him. Sure, he wants the scenarios to end, but does this goal say much about how he should go about making this ending? Or what this ending should be? He's more focused on survival than anything else and sees everyone around him as a character in a story.

"I want to see the ending with my companions" is when he lets those around him (namely kimcom) start to be a bigger part of his life where he used to keep others at a safe distance and not allow them to get close to him. He is more immersed in the story but still hides behind not only the fourth wall, but his emotional walls as well. This is also where he starts to sacrifice himself for those he cares about. His goal is still somewhat vague and he uses his ability to cheat death to allow himself to get hurt time and time again just so he can reach that ending. It's fine because it's him, right?

"I want to reach the end with my companions, no sacrifices" is where he begins to accept that his self-sacrificing is starting to hurt the others but continues to choose that route time and time again for what he believes is their own good. He doesn't want to sacrifice anyone, but his "solution" to that comes at a cost. He is aware of this but doesn't understand why his constant sacrifices hurt those he cares about. Nor why these people he's let into his life care about him. He gradually opens up somewhat and ends up accepting what he can remember of his past. He's working on his relationship with his mother, which was previously thought beyond repair.

"I want to buy a really big house and live together with everyone" - he starts having ideas of what he truly wants to do beyond just the end of the novel and sees himself as part of kimcom, rather than just an outsider looking in. This is also where he's immersed in the story the most. He's grown to accept that love and care, even though he doesn't understand why they feel that way nor think he is deserving of it. He wants to have a picnic at the han river. He wants to see lee jihye graduate. He wants to attend jung heewon and lee hyunsung's wedding. He wants to see his grow up and live a happy life. He is aware that he can never really do any of these if he chooses to sacrifice himself yet again.

Even if he does suspect who the oldest dream was prior to their meeting, it is undeniable that the reveal of this identity shook him up so badly that much of his thought processes reverted back to very unhealthy points in his character arc. He takes responsibility for the entire existence of the scenarios and believes the tragedy he needed to cope through was no excuse to (unknowingly) cause the tragedies of others. He believes he needs to pay them back for using their pain to survive, despite his salvation being something they do not want. He stays on that subway knowing full well how much the others care for him. They could never accept just part of him.

In the end, no one's happy. Especially not him.
