Us. (characters introduction)

Hello, I am the middle guy, named Stevebrine. That is my persona or self insert so to say. My online presence/appearance is him but you can still just call me Steve in conversations. He is meant to be such a basic looking guy, its intentional.

The other 2 around me are personified, generalised and representative of my different thoughts and emotion.

On my right, your left, is representative of my negative thoughts emotions, actions and more. He's name is Negative (i know, how original)

On my left, your right, is basically the polar opposite, basically representing all my positive things, named Positive (I know, how original)

As you can clearly tell the generic devil and angel designs, they are very obvious what they represent. Black and red colours, white and blue colours... yea its simple. Its meant to be simple.

------------------------------------------------

They are very real in my head. They are the voices I hear, creatures that lead me. I created them since I was 10, and they have been growing with me. They are presentative of my unstable mental state, my mental health and much deeper problems. My emotions are mostly driven and controlled by Negative while my understanding of things in logical ways are more of what Positive could at least control. I created them to allow me to understand myself more, to express myself and to explain myself through art. I mostly draw them fighting, representing this constraint endless quiet battles I've had to deal for a looooong time. Its all in my head, yea. And me, being Stevebrine, is caught in the crossfire, constantly controlled and tortured by Negative while fighting his claws to help Positive while he tries his best to save me.

But I know, even if we somehow "defeat" Negative, I could never escape, as there are traces of both of them in me as they literally made up who I am (just look at the eyes). I am shaped by them but they are still my won creation that I've lost control. They were meant to be under my control, I was meant to be the king of this kingdom but i was just too̸̳̖̍͝ ̵̨̀̿͂͜f̸̛̥͔̮̀͗Ŭ̴̗͍Ć̷̞̋K̸̨͚̆I̶̹̤͋͝N̷͈͒̈G̴͇͎͍̽ ̸̢̒W̴̞͉̔̔̚E̶͚̍Ą̷̱͙̅͑K̷̛̖̀......but I was just a child, how would I have known.

------------------------------------------------

Anyways, this was just meant to be a simple surface level of introduction. I aint gonna dump 10 years worth of lore on here. I will simply tell you we live in a metaphorical forest, where every tree is a memory and every blade of grass is time passed. I, Stevebrine, has a treehouse built on the tallest and strongest tree with Positive's help. But there is a constraint and raging forest fire that engulfed at least half of the forest already, and Negative is spreading it. And whenever their battles gets too intense, the whole forest turns into a void but will return when it gets less intense.

*Also, they aren't all serious at times, sometimes the treat me like their bros. We do goof around, I mean with been stuck together for life.

These are all metaphors. I been growing this world since I was 7. Even before forest came out, which is why that's my favourite Twenty One Pilots song.

If you are curious about whatever that's going on in this head of mine, ask away, I will try to answer them.

Thank you for reading :)

i will remake a reference sheet for them soon

If…yøu_ _ _need…anyøne

twenty one petals, twenty one pilots, twenty one years

this is my 21st bday art (that was delayed over a month cause of assignments).

I started drawing these cryptic bday arts for myself since 17, many were gruesome or have implied being my last bday or about struggling and all that stuff, but this one is different, this one has hope.

I dedicated my 21st bday art to Twenty One Pilots (of course) cause even though life didnt exactly magically became instantly better when i joined The Clique back in 2018, was intrigued by Jumpsuit MV and rest is history, they been the one thing that kept me going.

Of course there were so much fall backs and snap backs and failed attempts throughout these years but, I would say things did get better. And honestly it felt like my process was linked to their process of the lore. Its insane finding something I could relate word by word after years of being constantly conviced that I dont belong here nor deserve to be alive.

After ironically helping other clikkies who are struggling with their own mental health just like me for years to not end their stories even when i myself have wanted to, i think its time for me to listen to my own words. or at least try to.

and yes, thats my banditosona, no i still havent finish his reference sheet

Happy belated 21st birthday to me.

Stay alive, frens.
