I have not been on here in a very long time, and that's because I've been really unplugged from the whole mcyt community and content for a while. The hyperfixation died out, as they're prone to do, and I more or less moved on.
That said, Technoblade's passing has hit me hard. I have a hoodie of his coming in the mail, I'm watching his old antarctic empire videos and phil's streams and I've been doing a lot of crying lately, haha. To be quite frank, I haven't felt like this since I started on medication. So, I saw fit to make something for him. This was hard to make and I had to take lots of breaks, but after 5 hours, I finally feel like I've given a proper goodbye and homage to him. He will still be on the forefront of my mind for a long time, and I may draw him more because I desperately want to keep his memory and his character/persona alive, but I think this was the creative closure I needed to feel a bit better. I only wish I'd done more in terms of his clothing design, but I was still deep in it when I finished the lineart, and it's very clearly too late now.
And the Universe said I love you, because you are love.
Technoblade never dies.
