Hi hi! I just wanted to say your Uma self-ship character looks very cute!
thank you so much!!!!! this gives me an excuse to share more art i drew of them back in February-March :3 yippee
under the cut is lore and art if you or anyone wanna read more, no pressure tho (cut to save dashboard space ykyk)
here is Clover's outfits and their stats, basically her stamina is really bad so shes really only good at sprints but after enrolling at tracen they improve enough to run miles as well, shes also a front runner bc again the stamina so if she falls behind there's not a good chance at being able to catch up. their design is also loosely based on meisho doto bc shes me fr but make it more princely. i also like to imagine how the ribbons would flow in the wind as they run,, so cute,,
----------
heres a little mini comic i did when i was first learning to draw daiwa so its not too great, but making Clover's pre-career design was very fun! i liked the green side peices a lot that i turned those white, it helps her look a little more unique too since shes not based on any real race horse
----------
some angst, in my little self indulgence story Clover transfers to Tracen when Vodka leaves for america so now daiwa has an open dorm space, and with her being the top student it makes sense she would help out the new transfer!
eventually the two get close, Clover fell first and Daiwa fell harder but theyre focused on their own careers they cant be together!
however, Clover's family has a history of bad joints and it slowly starts making training/races more painful overtime to a point they cant just ignore it anymore, so their career ends on a slow fizzle out. now i dont think when youre done racing you just leave the academy im sure theres other paths but i wanted to be dramatic
i think something like that would hit Daiwa pretty hard though. even tho im not a daiwa/vodka shipper (i cant even remember the ship name) i cant deny daiwa definitely had some feelings for vodka and vodka leaving for america left her feeling almost betrayed. and if clover cant run anymore, that means they'll leave daiwa alone again just like vodka
----------
this is just over doodles i did for them, the left is the first drawing i made of clover and the right is just fluff. as you can see i really struggle with daiwa's tiara still so i just dont draw it a lot,,, but i will learn eventually im sure
if you read all of this thank you!!! im sorry it was such a long ramble but the only one ive talked to about my ship is my bf (he loves it)
