This is a pretty old piece, but one of the few old pieces I'm still really proud of. One of my OCs cosplaying as Ryuko from Kill la Kill.

GENESEA // Her : Part 1

I don’t know how I slept on this Kadhja Bonet side project for so long. She’s one of my favourite SoundCloud discoveries of last year. 

[sannencarts]

Redraw of a piece from 2017 to see how much I've improved. I'm definitely much happier with the redraw.

[kanashimibeast]

For Genesea: 4 (pick and choose who/which ones you're currently feeling <3), 28, 37, 39?

04. What are their favorite traits about their lover? (one psychological and one physical)

Gonna go through most of ‘em, because I feel like it

King: Personality-wise, she loves his ego and confidence and how he can back it up. Physically, she really loves the size of him (especially his dick)

Buster: Personality-wise, she likes how rough and tumble he is. Physically, she likes his muscles.

Miranda: Personality-wise, she likes Miranda’s confidence and queenly demeanor. Physically, she thinks her breasts are amazing.

Rowan: Personality-wise, she likes have a sparring partner like Rowan who can challenge her to improve. Physically, I imagine she likes Rowan’s overall physique.

Lynx: Personality-wise, she thinks his sourpuss with a secret soft side thing is kind of adorable. Physically she likes his hair and his muscles.

Steel: Personality-wise, she thinks Steel is just absolutely fucking adorable for how friendly and upbeat he is. Physically, she loves how he’s big and easy to cuddle.

Mal: Personality-wise she has a love-hate relationship with how he sees through her so easily and always knows what’s bothering her and what she needs. Physically, she loves that he’s a shapeshifter because he can be anything she wants.

28. If your character became a celebrity, what would they be famous for?

In canon she’s a war hero and a historical figure so revered she’s basically passed on into legend. Her cunning and strategic prowess is especially praised (although I highly doubt she’d be held in as high regard if the historical records had also written down her flaws and the fact that she was shtupping a literal serial killer)

37. What are some of your character’s pet peeves? What are some things that annoy them or disgust them?

Genesea hates unrealistic depictions of weapons and armor in fiction. Sometimes she can bit her tongue and let it slide, but if it’s a particularly egregious example you can expect a long-winded rant backed up by several colorful explanations of how such a thing would realistically get the character killed.

39. When people look at your character, is there some assumption they might make about them just by appearance? Is that assumption correct?

They typically assume that she’s tough, due to her resting bitch-face, scars, and muscles. That is true. But they also typically assume that she’s hard to approach, which is not true. Just buy her a drink and she’ll be chatting you up in no time.

Thank you again for this, deerest <3

For Mal: 3 (you can add a personality trait as well, or trade it, if you want to), 7, 9, 24?

03. What would be their favorite physical trait about themselves?

Well, he’s a shapeshifter, so his physical traits can change a lot depending on what he’s in the mood for. But, when he’s in his “default” form he’s very fond of his two scars, one on his upper arm and one just below his knee. They’re a memento from his first meeting with Genesea, when they tried to kill each other.Personality wise, his favorite trait would probably be his sense of humor. He’s always prepared to make a dry quip in all kinds of situations.

07. Is there a catchphrase or sound that they tend to make a lot (likely without being aware of it)?

Not really, no. The closest thing I can think of is his affinity for bad puns, especially ones related to his profession. He’ll often make oblique references to his last “job” with a clever pun like “the poor fellow just didn’t have the heart to go on when I was done.”

09. Do they have a favorite season? What about a favorite holiday?

Mal really likes autumn, because it tends to be a prime season for rain and therefore fog. It also has his favorite holiday, Halloween, and autumnal colors remind him of Genesea.

24. In their own words, how would your character describe what their lover is like?

“I have never met as mortal who is as stubborn, reckless, vulgar, and downright ruthless as Genesea. She has no qualms about cursing someone out or cutting them down if they stand in her way, and I find that readiness to kill absolutely delightful... and I would be remiss if I didn’t say how exciting she is in bed~”

G E N E S E A (you can pick something else for at least one of the E's if you want to)

G: How do they flirt?

Genesea doesn’t so much flirt as she does bluntly ask for sex. She is so not subtle. On the rare occasions when she does tone it back to actual flirting you can expect a looooooot of bad puns and innuendo.

E: How are they with children?

Depends on how old the kid is. If they’re old enough for complete sentences she’s fine with them, she humors their little quirks and will sometimes even play with them. Really little kids terrify her though, because anything that only communicates with screaming and crying cannot be reasoned with and her only course of action is to hand them off to someone who actually can deal with it and flee the scene.

N: What do they usually eat for breakfast?

Her diet is awful and if it weren’t for Mal making sure she gets good food, she would eat garbage. She eats whatever she can get her hands on no matter how awful, if she even bothers to eat at all. Fortunately, Mal makes her hearty breakfasts with lots of meat and tries to keep the whiskey out of her reach until at least noon.

S: How stealthy are they?

Not very. She prefers to charge right in screaming a battle cry and leaves the stealth to Mal.

A: What are/were this character’s best subjects in school?

Gym (obviously), but also History. She may not seem like it but she loves reading about history, particularly when it’s about bloody battles and badass war heroes. She’d be the student who supplements the lessons with all sorts of colorful details the public school system glossed over because it was too graphic.

and two bonuses in lieu of the extra E’s:

D: How they react to being flirted with?

Poor Genesea is so dense that unless you approach her as bluntly as she approaches you, she has no idea she’s being flirted with. You wanna bang her, ask her for sex. You wanna date her? Tough luck, but maybe if you impress her you’ve got a chance. A slim one, but still a chance.

I: On a scale of 1 to 10, how much do they love themselves?

Somewhere around 50 because she’s hot shit and goddamn does she know it.

1,9 and 23 for Genesea?

1:their voice

As I’ve said before, I headcanon that’s Genesea’s voice is very similar to Ryuko’s from Kill la Kill - rough, rude, and capable of being very loud of and full of energy.

9:their theme

I have no idea what this question means and I’m not going to stress out over it when I’m already having a bad day, so next question.

23:how they act when they're sick

Pretend she’s not sick and try to go about business as usual until someone drags her to bed and forces her to take medicine.
