blackthunder-chan replied to your post “I know I’m on hiatus, but I wanna make a zine for ygo and idk how?:(...”
A siblings zine is an amazing idea. <3 ;o; Maybe you could find people to help you who have some experience. If handling printing and stuff is too much for you, it could be a digital zine instead. (Also I recently found a blog that helps people that want to make zines, so you could also check that out, it's called zineholics.)
Mmm! Thing is, I have really bad anxiety and don’t know anyone who’s handled zines. x_x And yeah true digital is cheaper, but I know lots of ppl prefer the real thing, and also if possible, extra stuff like stickers.

Note - @blackthunder-chan requested RoseKnightShipping (Aki X Sherry) with the prompt of them getting coffee together which I’m grateful I had otherwise I honestly think I would have had a harder time with this one. But instead I really love how it turned out!
Sherry sat in the cafe slowly drinking her coffee. Aki sat down across from her sipping on some kind of fruity tea drink.
Sherry said in a dull tone, “You're late. And what you drinking? Is that off the child's menu?”
Aki fiercely retorted, “Traffic was bad and parking was worse. Also why do you care what I am drinking?”
Sherry took a long sip of her coffee. “This is coffee, black coffee in fact. An adult drink. What you are drinking is sugary garbage that only a kid would like.”
Aki slammed her fist on the table, “Yeah while I bet your mouth taste like nasty coffee beans! I feel bad for whoever has to kiss you. Meanwhile my mouth is very sweet and kissable.”
Sherry blushed and looked away, “Hmph.”
Aki leaned in and asked, “Anyways you are the one that called me out here. What did you want besides rude remarks.”
Sherry looked back towards Aki and tilted her head back in a smirk, “In a month there is a big tag-team tournament coming up. I need a partner and you just so happen to be...”
“Not interested.” Aki interrupted.
Sherry's face went wide as she yelled louder than she wanted to, “What! How can you say that so easily? This is a rare opportunity, an honor in fact.”
“I'm kind of taking a break from dueling, I need to focus on school work. I've had more than enough world-saving duels that I don't think I can do a casual tournament for a while.” Said Aki in an uninterested tone.
Sherry looked down as she seemed like she was trying to hide her disappointment. She rose her coffee to her lips and drink it a bit fast. Her face contorted, clearly she burnt her tongue.
Aki sighed, “Why even ask me anyways? What about that big guy that is always around you?”
“Mizoguchi has never taken a vacation in his life so I sent him on a much needed long vacation.” Sherry explained.
“Well ask Yusei. Aren't you close to him or something.” said an annoyed Aki.
“Close? Are you crazy?” Sherry laughed, “Besides I already asked him first. He is traveling the world for some science project.”
“How about Jack?”
“The King?” replied Sherry with much sarcasm, “That asshole doesn't team up well with anyone.”
Aki's eyes shifted upwards, “Umm how about Crow?”
Sherry grabbed Aki's hand and looked into her eyes, “Look Aki, I really want you to be my partner. I felt a special bond with you the last time we dueled. Your deck might not be completely compatible with mine but I think we could come up with a good strategy to make it work.”
Aki's eyes narrowed, “If you feel such a special bond with me then how come you asked Yusei first?”
Sherry gasped and retracted her hand as she looked downwards. Was she about to cry? No. Aki couldn't believe Sherry would do that. Aki's foot gently tapped against Sherry's leg.
“Hey Sherry. Hey come one. I'm just teasing you.”
Aki moved her face closer to Sherry's when Sherry suddenly lifted her head and was now a breath-length away from Aki.
Sherry softly said, “Please Aki, be my partner.”
Aki leaned back so hard she nearly fell back on her chair. She took a deep breath. When did she become so short on air? Aki glanced over at Sherry's cute begging eyes. Then she glanced downwards and thought about her school work. Then she looked up and stared at Sherry who still looked deadly determined. Honestly she was quite beautiful like that.
“Fine!” Aki yelled in defeat, “I'll practice with you and we'll see if we have any chemistry together. No promises that I will join the tournament with you but we can try things out and see if that is the direction we should go.”
Sherry downed the rest of her coffee as she had an uncharacteristically large smile on her face which didn't seem to fit her but it was cute.
Sherry explained, “Ok let's go back to my place. We'll have plenty of space to mess around.”
Aki shook her empty cup, “Ok but first I need a refill. Oh and also I am only coming on one condition.”
Sherry stiffened up, “Umm fine, anything.”
“You are going to get yourself a fruity kid's drink.”
8. What is your favourite piece that you have done?
If I absolutely had to choose, I think Shades of Cyan?
10. What do you like most about your art?
The coloring. I’m rather proud of my coloring/shading. If I had a choice I’d choose to only color stuff. Unfortunately you have to draw stuff first pfft.
22. List at least one of your “artspirations.”
This one’s kinda hard, since I’ve been drawing since pretty much forever and never really thought about it that much. But I do get some of my inspirationsfrom listening to music.
pencil: when did you first take an interest in art?
Honestly I’ve been drawing since forever. It started off as just drawing animals like horses and wolves. It wasn’t until I got into shows like Teen Titans and InuYasha that I actually tried to draw people though XD
sketchbook: how many sketchbooks do you own?
Maybe one? I pretty much draw entirely digitally now, and when I do draw on paper it’s just computer paper :’D
clay: what gets you out of an art block?
Screaming into the void? Listening to 80s German Disco Pop?
