Putting this as a ramble post too cuz I edited it today
I think in terms of art, I wanna grow even more obviously but I'm happy with my huge improvement this year... My style looks the best it's ever been and my way of drawing face/eyes and sense for picking colours keeps getting better and better.
I do think I wanna jumpstart a huge art improvement growth journey by trying to make gesture drawing somewhat of a consistent thing for me. Cuz I have no consistency for my gesture drawings. Not right now obviously but I wanna design plushies for my fave ships (XanLena, KuroEne, JuAli, IdaTatsu, LimGuda) one day. I love them all dearly… 🥺🫶
Because I was thinking that I would love to have physical merch of them. I'll make my faves kiss like barbie dolls ✌️💗 I would LOOOVE to dress them up and sit them next to each other... That's a huge dream of mine
I think KuroEne should be on the easier end of my fave ships since their designs are rather simple and less detailed in comparison? I'm not used to drawing chibis, compared to how I usually draw, but I'll do anything for my faves. Don't underestimate me. I'm dedicated.
I also wanna doodle some scenes from my KuroEne AU Route where MaryEne team up against Saeru. This Route has such a fun setup, especially with the way it plays out. Because it's so long, I haven't finished writing for it yet.
So I wanna draw some snippets from it eventually. Ofc I'd love to draw more, but my yapping outpaces my drawing speed, unfortunately. That's why I do rambles/dialogue scripts. So I can remember my ideas and hope to draw them later whenever I get the time
This Route is super long so I haven't gotten the chance to sort all my dialogue scripts for it yet. I take from my Notion docs for my stories. They remind me what I have/haven't posted on my socials
I have some art concepts simmering in my head like KuroEne wearing Viet clothes cuz seeing my faves in traditional clothes makes me <3 And then a ball themed art where Kuroha drapes a black veil over the both of them and Ene wears a dress with a cage dress aesthetic <3
I used to post my notes onto Insta directly (by copying them from my Notion docs) but it takes more time to format. I’ve been busier lately cuz of school, so I just post SS of my Notion docs directly.
Art Growth
Exactly agreed with this. This is how I spend my time drawing so I appreciate OP for putting this into words. For me I usually rotate between my interests but always end up coming back to them eventually since they're always in the back of my mind, even if years down along the line
I find that if I get really invested, then I don't move on from my fave series/characters. They linger in my heart forever and I just rotate between them. This also helps avoids burnout with one interest for me. My followers don't really have to worry about me not drawing [X] character/ship anymore. I will always come back to it eventually.
Tho, just in general, it's natural that peoples' interests just phase in and out, and they may or may not come back to [X] thing. I first got into KagePro when I was 12 so I'm surprised it took me this long to come back to it publically, since I had instances where I'd draw doodles for it but just not post them
I'm MORE shocked that I didn’t talk about my KuroEne obsession until 2024? I was literally NEVER obsessed with a ship like that until them (KuroEne). 12 y/o Sen's first big ship 💗
Cuz I was 12 when I first became obsessed with them, and up until that point, I wasn't insane about a ship like that until them
Me with my faves is basically just my insanity speedrun, especially when I’m mainly obsessed with XanLena, KuroEne, and IdaTatsu solely cuz of my ship AUs & interpretations. Those ships hinge entirely on my AU writing.
But I think it's cuz I knew the KuroEne obsession would come back in full force and that's exactly what happened in April. I predicted it LOL. I'm not really surprised cuz Kuroha/Saeru is EXTREMELY Sen-core in both writing and design, and his character concept and role as the main villain, is so unique. The instigator of the time loop tragedy who’s the embodiment of “Knowledge/Wisdom”
As I said, my top faves are all equally important to me they're just personal and important to me in different ways. So I try to split up the time spent between each interest by rotating through them periodically and drawing for them in random bursts. I always get a feeling of “I miss them and want to draw for them again...”
Like, I've mainly been drawing and writing KuroEne lately cuz they're the easiest of my faves to draw imo (other than XanLena).
I'm very particular about the way I draw Xanxus' eyes and hair (it's generally easy but sometimes I have trouble), but with KuroEne, I don't really have much trouble drawing them at all (their headphones are annoying to draw, along with the belts/straps on Kuroha, but they're generally easier).
So I'd put XanLena and KuroEne at a similar level. Like I don't really have trouble drawing KuroEne's hair and facial features. They're easy to do an initial sketch pass for. For the others, I either draw them good on the first try or they take multiple sketch passes for me to get right
I think it goes like this in terms of difficulty (easiest to most difficult)
KuroEne & XanLena < JuAli & IdaTatsu < LimGuda
And LimGuda's difficulty is because of how detailed Douman's design is
Also cuz Feila chats with me about KuroEne everyday, so the KuroEne AU rambles are just easy to post cuz I can just snatch from my notes, or whatever KuroEne AU works I'm working on.
In general, I snatch from whatever I'm currently drawing/writing about (or recent WIPs, or ones I've recently worked on and revamped)
But I think about all of my faves daily. I've been thinking of wanting to create for my other interests too.
Art is a craft of someone's passion and hard work. People are not entitled to it. I lowkey got sick/annoyed of drawing Ak*Yona cuz I got sentiments from people like "Please draw more ANY 🥺" and cuz it overshadowed the main AU works I focus on. Like... how do you think I'd feel about that.
Every few ~ several months, I get a feeling of wanting to archive my old works, cuz I hate looking at my old art. Some things from 2023 are hard for me to look at, much less anything older than that. I felt a sigh of relief when I archived most of my gallery. I want to fill it with new arts eventually ✌️
My mental health hit its lowest lows at times in the last couple years cuz of my not so great home life, but I think in terms of art, I'm the happiest I've been, rn. If I draw something, I want it to come from my heart as something I wanted to do, not because people wanted me to draw it
Ship Tastes
I think I talked about how I felt before in my Notion docs, but didn't post it here. To me, I feel like, the more that a ship resembles "traditional romance," the more I'm turned off by it tbh. I'm not looking for highschool sweethearts esque stuff. I like literary romanticism, the opposite of literary realism.
My fave ships are ones that are intense and dangerous, and deadly and passionate. I like ships with a compelling amount of conflict and tension, ones that are complicated, complex, and messy.
My ships are not "traditional romances" and I prefer it that way. Makes it much more interesting to me
Because for me, my only reaction is just, "Oh it's cute Ig." But there's nothing (or hardly anything much) for me to say about it.
ALL of my top fave ships are like this, so I think it really shows in my ship tastes.
Also on a side note. I also get bored by masc charas who are too NORMAL... Fiction is a form of escapism for me, I'm not searching for normal people it's generic and boring to me
That's why my acc is a villain enjoyers zone cuz my faves are all weirdos. They're just more fun /pos /endearing
Though I do make exceptions.
This is exactly how I feel
This fully explains why I'm only obsessed with MLW ships if:
The ship is complicated, messy, chaotic, and funny
At least one of the charas is queer, or can be HC'ed as queer
Like it HAS to have these, in order for me to be obsessed with it. Like if it doesn't have these requirements, then it's only a casual like to me. I’ve never had an exception to this
I HC my faves as LGBT+ by default cuz I'd keel over if any of my faves were straight. I'm allergic to cishet people
The thing is, is that I have very hyperspecific ship tastes, so my ships need a certain level of intensity and danger for me to be obsessed with them. I like when my ships are intense and dangerous
(Either one or both of the charas are dangerous, or their relationship is, in some way)
My big MLW ships are IdaTatsu and KuroEne, like the men in these ships are fruity af
Cishet meow meow mfs are a myth
Kuroha/Saeru can use Awakening Eyes to change his body into whatever he wants. I love my NB genderfluid Kuroha/Saeru HC sm. That's genderfluid swag 💖
Agreed with this post btw like the best MLW romances are written by queer women (bi women and lesbians allergic to heteronormativity)
I noticed that a LOT of my fave ships are Enemies/Rivals to Lovers
Enemies to Lovers: JuAli, LimGuda, KuroEne
KuroEne
KuroEne is my case study ship like it's fascinating to me
I'm studying them like a hamster spinning on a wheel
My mad scientist brain (or maybe Kuroha/Saeru's mad scientist brain?) is going off the rails /lh
Every other fave ship of mine I want them to be happy. My ship AUs are generally fluffy and focused on the ship and their intimate moments and them spending together
This is true for KuroEne too, but for KuroEne, I want their infinite XXX amount of Routes to keep on going forever so I can keep writing their endless possibilities cuz it's so fun to think of
There are some ships where I'm like "I don't think of them in terms of a usual romance/relationship, I just think they're interesting"
And yeah. KuroEne engage in intimacy but their r/s is soooo messy, and that's why makes it fun.
Once my faves are past the initial animosity/hostility, getting to know each other, I could definitely see my other ships in actual romantic relationships.
KuroEne is a different case tho because of Kuroha's role/setup as the instigator of the time loop tragedy constantly killing the cast who retains the knowledge/memories of previous Routes.
So in these XXX amount of Routes, they get reset back to 0 at the end everytime, and then they meet again... And Saeru remembers all these encounters.
Their relationship is filled with conflict and tension, desperation, love, obsession, passion, yearning, desire, attachment.
KuroEne is definitely different from my other ships, cuz, in the context of a ship AU, Kuroha/Saeru loves for his own sake due to his selfish, twisted desires. The emotions are genuine but it lacks pure, genuine love.
I imagine that the KuroEne AU started cuz he wanted to prove his theory that humans will do anything for love.
Irt how the KuroEne AU starts
He first questions humans' desire for love (that he probably mistook as lustful pleasure) then he decided to test his experiments on Ene (due to his vessel). Takane/Ene is more affected by Haruka & Konoha than anyone else. And that's how he comes up with the whole idea of the "game" with her, their trysts. And that's when he approaches her with the proposal to make her a body...
His elaborate scheme done in the most roundabout convoluted way, lol
One that he presents to the other party as being an equal trade, but ultimately benefits himself, mostly.
Though it is true that Kuroha/Saeru grants all of Ene's wishes in their relationship... He caters to her wishes and appeases her personality and whims, takes her out wherever she wants, gives her gifts, and love and affection...
Kuroha gives her everything she wanted (even if it comes at a heavy cost)
That heavy cost being - He kills everyone.
He gives her everything except for what she truly wants (getting to move onto the future with everyone and have a happy life)
And he gets to satisfy his desires for accumulating more knowledge (with getting to build the android body and improve on it)
It's filled with a very ILL affection, cuz he is at his core, ill.
Even Douman can be very genuine/show more tender sides...
When he reveals himself to Ene, the betrayal's gonna sink in. Like, if you spend that much time getting to know someone (I imagine they were basically living together for 1 - 2 years) then the betrayal from him revealing his true intentions is gonna be devastating
I imagine that he genuinely enjoyed his act of playing pretend with his S/O (and to the rest of the MekaDan, if they meet in this Route) and enjoyed the time he spent with them, and that's exactly why he won't give it up.
Like...... He's gonna push back against the idea of Ene proposing moving onto the future with everyone as much as possible for the sake of his own immortality (above all else), and then, on a secondary level, for the sake of the game - the love that's keeping him fulfilled
I see them as the type that will meet and cross paths with each other and meet and engage in intimacy with charged sexual tension
Officially my birthday in my timezone 🎉 I'll be going to bed soon!
My dream is to have Furumi's Valentine's Day LimGuda art printed on my birthday cake (one day). I've been dreaming about it.
For now, though, when I get the time, I'll eat out and get some sweets later this week
I was thinking of getting chocolate sweets to treat myself
I also have merch that I ordered which includes KagePro artbooks (which contain the KagePro MV arts) and Sidu's artbooks (which has a lot of KagePro arts). I'm gonna be really excited to unbox it soon.
I still have my Outer Science themed doodle as a WIP :) I want the composition to have artistic horror + mild blood themes, so I wanna keep my composition a secret. I won't post the WIP shots until after, cuz it'd spoil the surprise of my comp, but I'll post it whenever it's ready to be posted ^^
On most days, I have classes from the morning to afternoon, and then get home later around dinner time, so I'll start working on birthday themed arts (arts of my ships) later, sometime this week and next.
I don't have art to post today, but I will soon ^^

Rambles
Kuroha: An ancient being who existed even before human civilization was born, and while possessing Konoha, can use Konoha's Eye Ability, Awakening Eyes, to rebuild the body molecule by molecule in KagePro's Novel Route, and change his body and appearance into whatever he wants.
NB genderfluid Kuroha/Saeru HC feels so right to me
...
Douman: Douman is canonically GNC and represents Yin/Yang and Duality as a character. Yin/Yang. Moon/Sun. Feminine/Masculine. Darkness/Light. Limbo and Douman. Their gender is listed as "Unknown"
Like even the fact that they have black and white hair is apart of their whole Yin/Yang theme
Douman's NB to me
Imo there's more cemented basis that goes further with him than it does with some other charas
Limbo and Douman = Alter Ego Limbo and Original living human historical self (Just to clarify, for those who aren't familiar with Fate)
...
Imo Xanxus and Kuroha wouldn't mind the gender of their S/O
...
Ofc I have more to say about my other faves, but I haven't gotten the chance to write rambles for it
...
Selena is my OC, so they're not HCs.
I treat Ritsuka and Tatsumiya like my OCs.
...
Selena's my KHR OC. I don't have to denote it as "HC" for her since all of her canon lore is decided by me as her creator.
Selena's design is literally NB flag colours 🖤🤍💜💛
Her main theme colours are Purple, Pink, and Blue 💜💗💙
Purple = Selena's main colour, and the colour of Cloud Flames (main Flame Type)
Pink = Selena's secondary colour, and the colour of the lotus flower, her namesake, and Vietnam's national flower
Blue = Selena's secondary colour, and the colour of Rain Flames (secondary Flame Type)
(Selena's Viet name is Liên, which means "Lotus" in Sino-Viet)
All 3 make up the bi flag!
...
It makes me really happy that NB Ritsuka with They/Them pronouns is such a common HC among LimGuda's LGBT+ fans ^^
I already HC'ed them as NB, but it makes me feel really validated to see many ship interpretations that resonated with my own, too
Cuz I noticed that it's not common in other Ritsuka ships to HC them as NB. It's something I usually see with LimGuda's LGBT+ fans.
...
I cherish all of my faves dearly because they are all very important and personal to me, just in different ways. So for each, I tie 6 charas as my no. 1
I decided to include my own OC here because just like the others, she's an undeniable part of my heart
I headcanon all of my faves as LGBT+ by default cuz I would literally keel over if any of my main faves were straight
Idk how to do line breaks on Tumblr so I'm just using (...)
If I had to pick a fave femme character from canon media due to character writing and character writing quality, it'd be Kiara (FGO)
I created Selena in like 2011 - 2012 (?), possibly even earlier, and gained Kiara as my no. 1 FGO wife in 2019
So the fact that BOTH of them have long wavy black hair, gold eyes, black/white clothes, and purple/pink being used as an accent colour, is such a funny coincidence.
Like god, my taste in wives really shows.
Completely opposite personalities tho
...
For masc charas, I'm SUPER picky with them in that they NEED to fall under very specific requirements in order to be my fave. They NEED to be sen-core in some way. So all of my masc faves are Sen-core in some way, to varying degrees. All of my top masc faves are Meow Meow Mfs, a hyper-specific Sen-core character type.
And if they're not a meow meow mf, then they fall into secondary Sen-core character tropes I enjoy
My taste in femme charas is much more varied cuz of my gay side (LOL), but these characters still have commonalities. They're all very Sen-core. I'm noticing the trend that my top fave femme characters are earnest and/or empathetic (in some form), and have struggles dealing with loneliness and/or melancholy.
I'll name a couple examples
...
My fave types of masc meow meow mf faves:
Black and white colour scheme and design aesthetics. Causes problems on purpose. Sen-core bastard cat. Smug chaotic edgy evil asshole character. Violent, unhinged, bloodthirsty and murderous. Arrogant with a huge ego that distances them from humanity, or social interactions, in some way (ie. Hibari, Xanxus, Douman, Idate, Judar, Kuroha)
My fave types of femme wifey wife faves:
A cute/hot adult femme I stole as my wife OC, a deeply empathetic (:D) or (^v^) vibes person who loves their friends and/or the people they care for, and also deals with struggles of loneliness and/or melancholy (ie. Selena, Ritsuka, Tatsumiya, Kougyoku)
A hot cunning sadistic femme fatale type, bloodthirsty, sadistic, cruel, evil women, OR women who do what they have to in order to accomplish their goals. Charas who are morally questionable and/or morally bankrupt (ie. Kiara, Koyanskaya)
...
Imo, the character traits/qualities of arrogance and having an ego, ARE what defines them as a Meow Meow Mf. ALL of my Meow Meow mfs have it, so I think it's a necessity.
Recently got a cute purple bow I started wearing. I got my ears pierced on Outer Science Day (8/31), coincidentally! I got some small cheap stainless steel star ones for now. After that, I'll go get some post earrings 🙏
The school semester started for me on the 4th, so I'll be busier and won't have the time to draw as often.
I'll try to keep up my posts of posting something everyday (or almost everyday) since I usually post stories right before I go to bed, art and/or rambles
I clipped my bow to my hair loosely so it doesn't tug on my hair but it almost fell off, so I'll also think about getting a bow with a scrunchy eventually too. Since I wanna wear a cute purple bow like Selena, but I still want it to be comfy. Right now this bow is still fine ^^
Cute purple Selena-esque bow 🎀💜 I got it cuz it reminded me of my wife
Admittedly I'm still thinking of what ship I wanna draw for my birthday on 9/12… I think it'll be posted late since I was mainly working on school work this week. I think it needs to be a Sen-core ship.
I was having a hard time deciding what ship I wanted to draw. I feel like it should be XanLena since Selena is my KHR OC (and beloved wife), but I'm also open to others too. I think I want to draw them in traditional Viet clothes as a redraw of my old XanLena pieces in the past.
I also considered drawing KuroEne or JuAli.
Since for JuAli, I've been sketching ideas irt a potential Tegaki fan-animatic with them. Particularly the Vocaloid Song crossover I thought of...
I also had some other ideas too of art ideas to draw with them! I wanna draw them in Chinese and Arabic traditional clothes, and then have them wear matching couple hanfu at some point.
I really want to make coloured doodle ship pieces for the rest of my ships that can match the quality of the KuroEne one I drew.
The expressions and colours are so good in my recent KuroEne art that I want to be able to match the same level of quality for my other ships too.
I've drawn KuroEne recently, so I wanna draw a ship piece with others. Though it'd be fun~ 9/6 Day is HaruTaka, KonoEne, and KuroEne Day, since 9 is Haruka/Konoha's Mekakushi Dan member code, and 6 is Takane/Ene's 🖤💛💙
Kuroha/Saeru is usually denoted as "XX" in merch since he's not apart of the Mekakushi Dan, but gets included as part of 9/6 by association.
Mr. XX
9/6 is 6 days away from my birthday, which is also Ene's MekaDan code. We were made for each other, wifey~ 💙 🤭 💘💞
Animatic Ideas

JuAli x Wi-Fi Imagination Wild Boy by rerulili
KuroEne x Strawberry by Kashii Moimi (illustrated by SOMAZ)
KuroEne x Bougainvillea by Kashii Moimi (illustrated by Somaz)
Not a whole MV though obviously (at least not now), but an illust of them biting into a strawberry based on the Strawberry MV's illust.
Though I do eventually want to make tegaki fan-MV animatics for all of my ships. Just to name a couple. I have tons more ideas

Commissioning Arts
I've commissioned arts of XanLena and KuroEne from amazing artists, which I will post on main eventually ^^
I wanna commission JuAli and IdaTatsu too in the future, I'm just waiting on JuAli and IdaTatsu for now cuz I haven't finished drawing my character concept art ref sheets for them yet.
Because I want it to be art of them with my HC designs. I still need to refine my sketches and design Alibaba's outfit.
I'd love to commission LimGuda but Douman has a really detailed and complex complicated design so I think that'll be for the future.
Most of my meow meow mf faves are possessive, which makes sense.
It requires entitlement to be possessive, and thinking that you're worthy of affection/attention, something that my faves definitely have due to their arrogance and ego.
...
Me: Ok I'll give you my HCs for my meow meow mf faves' bedroom roles with their S/Os
My meow meow mf faves are all really sadistic control freaks with a desire for domination and control... Their S/Os are sm softer.
...
Anyways, my faves take turns during sex and intimacy cuz it makes things fun ^^
Tbh I think for some of my faves it's easier to describe what I mean than use labels
Cuz it's like. I KNOW how I interpret their bedroom roles. I just find it hard to assign labels for it.
...
C: Ooo yeah
Xanxus is very control and ownership
Idate is just. Vibing.
C: XANXUS IS TOO DOM
I legit don't have any faves or sons in laws that are dominant like. Xanxus.
Me: YEAH EXACTLY
Other than Xanxus, all of my other faves would be fine with switching/taking turns.
C: Yeah like Xanxus wouldn't entertain pegging or giving up control
He would put the line on fingering
Combined with something else he'd be fine with it
Like getting a blowjob or a handjob at the same time
Also new experiences for a madman who probably will always want to widen his sexual experiences
C: Right like Xanxus is the ONLY character who's yaoi levels of "Fixed top"
Like everyone else has some natural variance
Me: Yeah cuz I imagine Idate likes having control but he's also really chill and tame in general, so he's open to switching too.
Me: Yeah cuz for some of my faves' bedroom roles, it depends on who they're paired with as well.
I found it hard to label Kuroha cuz he's really adjustable to his S/O's preferences and versatile as hell in bedroom intimacy
I found it hard to label Kuroha tbh. Like he likes being in control but is fine with switching
...
Me: This is how I see these two.
I think this sums it up better than the labels do
Idate: Likes being in control but doesn't mind being sub every now and then. Very open and chill about it (^-^)
Kuroha: Likes being in control, but doesn't mind relinquishing control at times too, cuz it still plays up to his ego that he ultimately has power over the other party (is able to turn the tables and take back control at any moment)
…
C: I mean Idate, Xanxus, Douman, Kuroha would enjoy control, ownership, and Predator x Prey dynamics LMAOO
Me: YEA I AGREE
C: Xanxus? He's the lion. His S/O is his prey.
Xanxus is basically a lion incarnation himself.
Me: Feels primal for them. Animalistic predator x prey urges.
Xanxus is so... big angy cat cot
Me: Yeah the predator x prey bedroom dynamic reminds me of Kuroha. He's the snake (hunter). His S/O is his prey.
...
C: Nodding
Oh yeah Hibari is just a brat
His default is whatever suits with his bratty behavior lmao
Me: Idate… I'd say dominant switch but still softer than Xanxus and Kuroha
C: Hibari is a Switch (motivated by being a brat) /lh
...
C: JUDAR…
SKDKGNDNG YEAH BRATTY BRAT WHO WANTS THINGS /NOW/
…
Me: This is Idate imo. This fits so well for IdaTatsu LMFAO
C: This is literally Idate lmao
S: LOL
The Way of the House Husband is so good
R: Idate = Way of the House Husband
Literally that manga, he used to be a yakuza now he’s a house husband
S: HONESTLY
I still need to read and watch the anime it looks so good
R: 😭
...
Me: Idate is still softer than the others tho. Cuz he is still someone who wants to be gentlemanly and loving and sweet to Tatsu
C: Idate is chill and kinda pathetic when it comes to his partner if someone asks him to take it up the ass he'll do it for sure lol
Me thinks at least
Me: Yeahhh that's the thing. Like he's fine with switching and more chill about it
Idate's such a pathetic wifeguy /pos
He'll do anything his wife wants
C: Yeaaa
Me: And then Kuroha/Saeru is like. He switches cuz it still plays up to his ego
C: New fun bedroom activities!
Idate's perspective
C: Nod
C: Valid
Most of my favs are power bottoms because ummmm I totally do not have preferences
Me: Ig I'll put dominant, switch for Idate
Cuz he's much softer about it compared to Xanxus and Kuroha
And Xanxus is the only character of my faves where making him submissive in any circumstance is just making him OOC
He wouldn't want to give up control no matter what. He doesn't want anyone to have power over him in any circumstance it'd make him extremely uncomfortable
C: Xanxus is the ONLY character who's yaoi levels of "Fixed top"
Yeah like everyone else has some natural variance
Me: RIGHT LMAO like he's the only mf that'd be like "No Switch" and I'd accept it. Cuz it's something that's actually in line with his chara
C: YEA
Me: Cuz I'm aware that some queer folks have very strong bedroom prefs and that's fine
Me: Ok I haven't even thought about labels for some of my faves
I just draw and write what I imagine and depict their intimacy to be like. Like my art and writing ideas are way more accurate to how I perceive my ships than labels are
Alibaba sub switch. He'd take turns with his S/Os
C: Me when the guys in some of my ships are so pathetic that they really are whimpering bottoms /lh
Also yeah I feel this about some of my faves. Like I have not thought about this. However I hope he gets fucked
Me: LMAO
Me: I see Selena as someone who would adjust to her S/O's preferences. In the XanLena ship she'd be a sub bottom.
Me: I found it hard to label Kuroha for this reason, cuz he's really adjustable to his S/O's preferences and versatile as hell in bedroom intimacy
But considering he thrives on the power dynamic and his control… Dominant/likes being in control but likes switching
Me: Normally, I think Ene would be a submissive bottom, but specifically with a character like Kuroha/Saeru, he knows how to rile her up/goad her because he knows exactly what to say to get the reactions he wants out of her.
So Ene does get more assertive and dominant in their intimacy at times
Like he challenges and provokes her with stuff like, "I didn't think you were the type to run away from a challenge, Ene~"
And Ene falls for the provocation (even if she's aware that he's provoking her) like "Bring it on!!! I'll show you who's really in charge!"
Kuroha/Saeru lets her haughty confident self take charge, thrilled at seeing Ene top and/or dominate him, while knowing that he can turn the tables at any time he wants (which plays up to his ego).
Even when he relinquishes control through intimacy, it still ultimately plays up to his ego cuz he holds the knowledge over both their heads that he can take it back at any time.
Whenever Kuroha does take back the reigns though, he pins Ene to the bed and goes like, "Play time is over. Let me show you."
C: Nods I see
Yeah that works
Some characters really are like that. They're a provocation away from unlocking new sides of themselves
Aaa I see. Interesting.
KuroEne's Intimacy
My chat with Mica (@/kichelmi) on Insta
Ty for chatting with me about them! ^^
M: Even if he relents control in intimacy, it doesn't mean he can't have it, but more of a personality trait. I actually think it fits so good with him to let a character like Ene be more dominant, because he can watch how she acts and find it interesting, and the knowledge that he could turn the tides if he wanted, the power imbalance still hanging on her head that he could drop anytime if he feels like it, it would also feel empowering to Saeru's confidence. Having the power to not use it, kind of.
Me: Yeah! The fact that he lets Ene have more control in intimacy and be more assertive/dominant seems like it would also play up to his ego, because they both know that he could turn the tables at any moment. He gets to watch and experience what it's like to have someone else take the lead and see how they'll act, and Ene can be so predictably unpredictable that it keeps things fun for him.
Also it's fun to chat about KHR and KagePro with you, your thoughts are really interesting to read 🤭
M: And even more, because of the time loops, Ene can not think he's the one in actual control at it, that at least on this she is has the step ahead, but for Kuroha is not the first time and he's having more fun watching her confident self take the reins he practically puts in her hands and wondering what she'll do next, if it's something he already knows or not, keeps it exciting
M: Irfkgdkmcb that's so nice! 😭 you have very interesting takes, ideas, and very specific too, and i don't feel i can embody things as much and i suck at putting thoughts into words, so thanks! It's always interesting to read your stuff from series i know about, and about orcas
Me: Yeah exactly! It's like a game he's playing. He'd find it fun to see how she thinks she has the control here even if he lets her have it. With his knowledge of the previous routes, he wants to see if she'll do something different this time
Me: That's very nice of you to say and I'm glad 😊 I feel you since it can be really hard to put things to words. I love learning about orcas and it'd be nice for me to talk about them more too 🤭🐬
M: If you ever feel like sharing about orcas I'd gladly read it up!!! Super interesting! I'm not that deep into them so i ended up learning and looking up a thing or two from reading your stories. They are fascinating
...
C: Ooooh interesting!
Me: Like he obviously takes pleasure in knowing that he ultimately holds the reigns even when he decides to let his partner have it.
...
C: Hibari (KHR) sounds like a bratty bottom to me
Me: Hibari… Perhaps switch? Or bratty power bottom?
C: DEPENDS ON MOOD
Bratty bottom or harsh top
Depends on day
Moody cat
Sometimes changes mid-sex
C: "Ok I've had enough. Now fuck me"
Mental image of Hibari just stopping mid a fuck and flopping on the bed and being like "Ok, your turn" to their S/O
KSKSKDNDKS
Me: AAA YEAH IT'S LIKE A COMPETITION/FIGHT TO HIM THAT HE WANTS TO WIN…
C: YEA ALSO. MOODY CAT. JGKDKFKD
Me: XanLena fits better together imo so I consider them the main ship for my KHR: Varia AU.
But I also enjoy TYL Hibari x TYL Selena on the side as one of my secondary ships in my KHR: Vongola AU ^^
The KHR: Varia AU is my main AU. The Vongola AU is secondary for me
…
Me: Ritsuka is highkey switch for sure
Me: Yeah I always imagine that even when Douman is dominant/leading their intimacy, Ritsuka is still in charge and holds the power in their dynamic, like they're letting themselves be fucked
In general, I see it as a form of deep trust and "Only with you" kind of thing. Y'know. I love that kind of exclusive affection in intimacy
…
C: Yeah I see Xanxus as a dominant top
C: Xanxus is all about control.
Xanxus is very control and ownership
EXTREMELY possessive
Wants the right to own his S/O (Irt intimacy and in the sense of wanting someone to completely belong to him)
C: Yeah Hibari is highkey switch
Me: Like he likes to be dominant and in control, but also cat fights with his s/o. But in a more :| way
C: And would love to fight for dominance
Like "I'll bottom, but only if you can hold me down"
Me: As for my KHR OC, I see Selena as like submissive bottom or switch. Depends on who her S/O is and their preferences. She adjusts according to her S/O's preferences
C: Or he's just feeling like he wants to be a spoiled princess today lmaoo
Hibari is a moody cat
Me: Selena's needy "Xanxus" and "Xanxus-sama" during sex to play up to his ego
OOOOGH I'M GAY
BRAIN GOING HAYWIRE!
C: OOOO YEAH HE (XANXUS) WOULD BE EXCITED BY THAT
…
C: Ik that fandom has a problem with ALWAYS tending to portray GNC guys as bottom bitch babies and it's honestly sus sometimes
Like SO MANY TIMES fandoms are all over making the GNC guy a helpless tsundere yaoi uke 😭
Me: (Coughs it's due to heteronormativity and misogyny)
C: Yea
I like the takes of GNC guys being sub bottoms to some degree, but I by far prefer making twinky lil' GNC boys bratty bitchy power bottoms
Me: Yeah I definitely agree. I prefer this as well 🫡
Me: Characters like Idate, Kuroha, and Xanxus are just sadists (though it's mainly just them enjoying being in control and dominating their S/O and teasing them)
Idate is sm softer and lighter about it tho.
Tatsu is very soft but she'd eventually get more daring and experimental, which Idate would get excited by
I think of Xanxus, Idate, and Judar as charas that are really impatient during sex. They want their S/Os and want to touch them (or be touched by them) NOW
Me: Idate is really impatient like he would not be able to sit through strip teases without getting touchy
C: LMAO
Idate feels the need to strip Tatsu himself
Despite all the layers of her kimono (specifically furisode)
Idate learns the Untying Furisode speedrun
Me: Kuroha is really patient irt bedroom intimacy. Mf has lived longer than almost everyone else, he has all the time in the world.
Douman. It depends. Either really patient or impatient
Douman is extremely sadistic and has sadomasochistic tendencies too (as a character). But around Ritsuka? He melts into a puddle. He'll do anything they want.
With that being said, though, Douman STILL does have a level of dangerousness and desire for control. He's not a declawed cat. He'll have moments where his desire for control and need to have them (Ritsuka), act up. And Ritsuka will let him.
For some reason I keep imagining in my head LimGuda/GudaLim with gentle dominant top Ritsuka face-sitting on Douman while they're pulling his hair and it's pooled in bunches over the ground while he proceeds to eat them out. Anyways!!! ^^
Anyways. This keeps showing up in my dreams I need to draw this one day. Who's gonna do it if not me HGHGHGH the femdom Ritsuka of my dreams!!!
…
Me: Idate likes to be dominant and on top but he doesn't mind changing it up every now and then. He's very chill about it. He likes bottoming too.
Normally I think Ene would be a submissive bottom but specifically with Kuroha/Saeru he knows how to rile her up/goad her by saying stuff like, "I didn't think you were the type to run away from a challenge~"
And Ene falls for the provocation (even if she's aware that he's provoking her) and goes like "Let me show you!!!"
And Kuroha/Saeru lets her confident self take charge while knowing that he can turn the tables at any time he wants. Even when he relinquishes control, it still plays up to his ego.
Ene is super bold and confrontational and can get hot-headed when riled up
…
Me: Tao Ren (SK) is already a mega brat but I see Judar as WAY more bratty, demanding, and aggressive than even someone like Ren
That's why writing competitive sex is fun 🤸
C: Judar is absolutely next level from Ren yeah
Which is. Telling.
Me: Thank god Judar never loses his bloodlust he just runs around like a gremlin who's a neutralized threat
Amen to Magi's writing yet again
C: Thank god Judar keeps his bloodlust tho and that it's necessary
C: SK writing is so cowardly in comparison, Ren gets majorly nerfed from his bloodlust and turned good so that the protag cast can "ACCEPT" him 🙄
Me: I think all of my main ships have an element of "Reigning in a freak (insane cat) or monster mf"
LMAO
...
C: Judar sounds like a bratty bottom to me. But with his desire for domination and control, he would want to top his S/O sometimes too, and Alibaba would probably just be like "Oh ok."
Me: I see him as a bratty bottom that demands around verbally.
It reminds me of Hibari's energy like "Ok now it's your turn"
Judar bratty bottom with a desire for control who wants to do whatever he pleases based entirely on his ever changing whims 😎
C: AHH YEAH DEFINETLY
Me: YEAH like provoking his S/O, always trying to stay in control
This is pretty similar to Ren
C: YEAH FOR SURE OMG
C: Tho Hibari feels even more unpredictable tbh
Like Judar demands around verbally. Hibari physically just expresses what's his ever changing mood today.
And he'll do whatever he feels like, really, depending on his mood. Tao Ren vibes but even more aggressive and commanding. Fussy and demands around
Me: Yeah Hibari would just randomly decide in the middle of it
C: YEAH LMFAO
Me: Judar is more fussy verbally
He states what his ever changing whims are ^^
Verbally harsh and demands around a LOT verbally
C: Yeah!!
Judar is more Ren like but even more extreme
Provocation, always trying to stay in control
Me: AAA yeah
I love competitive sex. It shows in my ship tastes and art and writing ideas.
Me: OOO YEAH
"Come on, you can do better than that!"
It's really cute to imagine JuAli both having their flustered moments at times
Cute awkward bfs /endearing
C: YEAH LMAO
C: Makes sense!! Cute :]
And moments of: (Stops, complete silence, just thinking of how pretty the other is)
Me: OOOGH… I've had ideas like that for them… :'^)
Me: Alibaba's never had an S/O before so I find it so cute how in the Magi manga, he says that he wants a cute S/O to be in love with mutually.
Something like "Someone cute who loves me, and I'm in love with them"
Think it might be around the Ch. 199 ~ 200 mark?
Alibaba is a Bisaster.
Judar's both Gay Disaster ™️ and Gay Functional ™️
C: AHH YEAH MAKES SENSE
That's so cute omg…
And then. Judar.
Lol.
Me: The JuAli omake that implies him having messed around in the past before. You could interpret this as messing around with people and being completely disinterested in women
I see him as gay MLM
But yeah for my meow meow mfs in general. Being horny and/or sexually experienced is completely different from emotional intimacy, so it's the weak point of most of my Meow meow mf faves (everyone except Kuroha/Saeru)
C: Alibaba: An angel :)
Judar: Probably spawned from hell
(/lh)
Me: LMAO
Angel x Devil 💞🥰
C: What a pair
…
Me: God they (JuAli) totally seem like the type to make bets/play silly games with each other to get to decide who leads their intimacy that night
Making bets/being competitive with each other
Me: Like imagining at least one instance where Judar just bites him and Alibaba just goes like "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?!?"
Me: Cat play biteys
Cat teething
C: LMAOOO
Me: Judar bratty bottom. Oooo this is my city! (Rubs hands together) 🙏
Violent tsun~
C: I love how you depict Judar's competitiveness and violent and angry aggressive reactions
Me: Ty~ In general I feel like conflict and tension are the spice of life in ships so I always want the element of competitiveness or some kind of conflict/tension to be present.
I don't want a declawed version of my cat. I don't want to make them TOO soft either. I want all their blood and venom and hostility and I want their S/O to be able to face that with the same tenacity and intensity and passion to be able to rise to face them
That's how I feel in general
…
Me: I remember my friends said Alibaba seems so submissive in general but in the JuAli and AliHaku ships specifically, he would rise up to face the challenge and face them. They'd take turns
Sometimes a guy provokes you too much (-> Judar)
…
M: Ngl I like Ore and Omae mfs for the dominating vibes LMAOOO
Me: That's valid LMAO
…
C: Oh yeah
Judar is definitely dominant as hell like he'll talk Alibaba into topping him by just dominating him hard enough LOL
AliHaku sounds like another "They were both bottoms" esque ship
Also GokuTsuna (KHR)
Me: HELPPPPPPPPP
THE ALIHAKU ONE 😭
Me: Since Judar is so needy and bratty and demanding, he'll let him take control of their bedroom intimacy just to see him happy
Kinda reminds me of a JuAli dialogue script I had before?
Judar and his tsun tsun possessiveness and egotistical personality and entitlement, wants to top him and fulfill the desire for control just to prove that Alibaba is HIS and no one else's…
Except it wasn't as harsh as what you described. The idea that I wrote was a bit gentler.
Judar wants the feeling of control and feeling that Alibaba is his, and Alibaba reassures him. Judar gets caught off guard by Alibaba's sincerity and finds it so infuriating that he responds with being rougher/more aggressive. I still need to refine and repost it tho
I should write a separate idea with harsher & rougher sex at some point… It'd also be hot to write what you described Cinna ^^
I'll keep that in mind! 👍
C: Also Judar he is. A fucking brat and he gets what he wants
Much like Ren, just even more extreme
Me: AliHaku have a certain kind of emotional awkwardness around each other after the fact (their interactions in canon) and there'd definitely be a lot of awkwardness when they try to settle into a r/s
C: GOD WHDHSHDSH
Hopeless /lh
Me: I find JuAli way easier to write for
Me: I do think Judar is the type that gets especially flustered easily with emotional intimacy
A trend with my meow meow mf faves. They get horny/are more experienced with sexual intimacy, but are weak to emotional intimacy
C: Oh yeah totally
Brat in bed, a sopping wet cat with aftercare
C: Alibaba goes along with his whims
I could imagine he just easily gets talked over when it's Judar it's like midway in he's like "Oh how did this end up like this haha"
Me: RIGHT LMAO
Me: POV: You give into the needy cat eyes /lh
Me: Morning after with JuAli and both of them are like "WHY DID I FUCK THIS GUY!!!" /lh /j
C: HHHEEEELPP YEAH THIS SEEMS RIGHT
Me: Alibaba is patient but even he'd get fed with Judar's stuck up spoiled bratty personality at times too and challenge him. And Judar takes the challenge
C: Oh perfect
I do love ships where they fight for dominance
Me: JuAli seems like the ship that'd do silly games like coin toss or fight for dominance to decide who gets to top. LMAO
C: Bhbhbbhh perfect 😭
Me: That's why for my ships in general they have the right amount of push and pull (irt conflict and tension)
I love conflict/tension and hostility. I don't want to make my faves TOO soft.
I'm almost surprised that I haven't written AliHaku yet, but I think it's cuz JuAli is easier for me to write
C: Oh yeah that makes sense
Me: Plus I feel like AliHaku have a certain kind of awkwardness with each other that I want to tread with carefully so I'd have to reread the series to decide how to deal with how their r/s would develop
Writing for JuAli is so easy for me though
They will be my main focus irt art + writing ideas, regardless
C: Ah yeah understandable
Me: Oh yeah I think for me, the only ship of mine where there's a power imbalance is KuroEne (due to Kuroha's role/setup as the big bad villain of KagePro constantly killing the cast + his accumulation of knowledge and weaponizing knowledge)
Even with that, though, I still think the KuroEne ship is sexy.
I always make sure to convey my ships in ways that are as healthy as possible.
I alleviated the power imbalance as much as possible so that it's more balanced with Kuroha/Ene both agreeing to play the "game (of intimacy)" with each other, but yeah it's ultimately in Kuroha/Saeru's favour
Me: KuroEne is sooo versatile with intimacy. I've been having a lot of fun with them because of that.
Especially cuz Kuroha is a guy who's always open to widening his sexual experiences and indulging in kink and exploring new things ^^
We have an ancient mf with a Douman like mindset (being very open to bedroom intimacy) and he can change his body into whatever he wants using Konoha's Eye Ability, Awakening Eyes. He is very open to exploring kink/widening his sexual experiences
I'm honestly obsessed with genderfluid Kuroha HC because of that
C: Valid! I can tell that Kuroha and KuroEne really are a Pandora's box for you.
Me: I think what's interesting about LimGuda is that Ritsuka is the one that holds power in their Master/Servant dynamic. So I'm NOT a fan of people making them overly submissive. Regardless of whether it's femme/masc Ritsuka, I see them as a highkey switch
Irt LimGuda what matters to me is the relationship of love they have with each other, and Douman's love for Ritsuka (Guda).
I prefer femme Ritsuka by design cuz of my gay side - they're cuter/hotter to me. But I love all forms of LimGuda
C: Yeah LimGuda is like. Empathetic S/O has their giant evil god eater cat on a leash.
...
Me: Douman is definitely like sub service type...
Subby service top Douman <3
If you were to make a 4 quadrant graph, they could go anywhere on it
C: And Douman is just. Everything. They are everything and they are horny
Douman is undefined by gender or sexuality or any norms. He covers all
Me: YEAH like I think Ritsuka is in charge of their relationship imo, Douman peak malewife type. They're a super submissive malewife. But they are also. Everything. They are high-key switch.
Yeah imo Douman is very submissive and would do anything to please his beloved Ritsuka. Tho he's also highkey possessive and has his own desires and urges too
Btw I think all of my femme wifey faves are ok with switching, they just accomodate to their S/O's preferences.
Idate likes to be dominant and on top but he doesn't mind changing it up every now and then. He's very chill about it
Me: Idate and Xanxus are like. Contained horny
Technically… Douman…? But he's also the horniest of my faves
He literally has lines like "That arouses my nerves" in regards to Ritsuka touching him
All of Douman's horny lines are for Ritsuka
C: Douman is everything
You cannot trope Douman. Douman will be the exact opposite too.
...
C: Basically your faves are either extremely patient or extremely impatient with few inbetween
Except Limbo
Because Douman just covers everything
Me: Yeah Douman is both extremely patient and extremely impatient and extremely possessive but tries to be considerate
C: Douman is all covering
He's here to represent both ends of all of your faves
C: LimGuda is highkey BDSM with Douman on lead (leading their intimacy), but he fails the impression of a rough dom with a sudden "Is this fine, Master" affirmation
C: Douman is a malewife wifeguy wife husband he's too respectful and submissive
C: All of your faves are sadistic even in other matters to add, so... Oh boy DAKLSKLDKLS
Ok Douman is too but Douman can be SUPER soft with Ritsuka
C: Where as Idate probably does not realize his own strength sometimes
And has to learn to leaves hickies. Like this guy probably originally left rings of orca teeth bite marks on Tatsu
...
Me: Xanxus and Idate are the two ends of the "Very PDA and gives no fucks" squad
Thank god Tatsu is a healer. She can just heal the marks
Idate gets sulky when she does so she just tells him to leave them in places that can't be seen
Though Idate would be more considerate and (mostly) listen to Tatsu when she asks to make them in places where they can be hidden
But he occasionally thinks of it as a "Where's the most unexpected place I can leave them" game
C: YEAH OMG
Yeah Idate is a gentleman
Just horny and playful
C: Yeahh and they (Ritsuka) try to keep Douman under some control and he would submit to them.
Douman is everything like you could not box this chara into labels. He encompasses everything
Douman is GNC masc AND jacked as hell, we stan
Me: Also reminds me Idate likes bullying the weak and also the strong. Equal bullying. So getting teased by his S/O would be hot to him, even if he wants to tease them back after.
I'm still wondering what ship I should draw for my birthday later this month... It's a week from now.
A compilation post of many ramble thoughts I've had. Multifandom so it's very unsorted
Trying to decide which one of my main 5 fave ships I want to doodle for my birthday will be hard to decide.
Ngl it feels fitting to draw XanLena for it, cuz Selena is my beloved KHR OC and wife 💜💘
But I'm also tempted to draw others too (if I have the time)
Cuz I eventually want to do a rough coloured doodle at least for each of my main fave ships, that can match the quality of the KuroEne kiss doodle that I made.
My Fave Sen-Core Ships' Eye Colours:
JuAli: Red and Gold
XanLena: Red and Gold
LimGuda: Black and Gold
IdaTatsu: Black and Gold
KuroEne: Gold (Black) and Blue
Just had a realization about my top fave ships. All of my main fave ships have a chara with gold eyes. Something is going on here.
Kuroha/Saeru has gold eyes. Manga Route 2 Kuroha/Saeru has red sclera and black eyes. All Eye Ability users' eyes glow red when using their Eye Abilities. But I decided to go with their natural eye colour.
Well, I'm not really surprised. All of my ships are just "Freak x Freak who freaks them out (Or human that tames them)" and "Morally Questionable (Morally Bankrupt) x Morally agreeable"
"Morally bankrupt evil meow meow mf" x "Ball of Sunshine"
(Empathetic sane patient person with a good heart)
The ultimate Sen-core ship tropes.
In my Notion docs, I had these at like ~120 px so they're getting pixellated to hell
My secondary ships' eye colours:
AnKia: Gold and Blue
EdRich: Purple and Gold and Blue
TaiKoya: Purple and Gold
HaoRen: Brown (Red) and Gold
(Didn't get the time to edit images for them)
I picked out ships of mine where one of the charas has gold eyes
As I said, no one has more obvious tastes than me LMFAO
Richard has purple and gold eyes so I put both.
I just realized all of my top 5 main ships have a character with gold eyes
Not every ship of mine has it ofc, but a bunch of my side ones do too
C: So much gold omg
"You're the worst person I met on Toontown"
Rambles from me talking with Cinna and Snow <3
Me: JuAli, KuroEne, LimGuda, HaoRen, Idate and Algol
Me: Not to be that guy but HaoRen (Shaman King) reminds me of that one Toontown meme/shitpost
Hao: You don't understand the suffering of this world
Ren: (This guy is the worst guy on Toontown I've met)
C: NO THAT'S THE EXACT VIBE THEY HAVE HELP
Me: Wait this also feels like KuroEne and LimGuda 😭😂
S: LOL
C: I love this image sm
This is also my OC.
Me: This is just LimGuda
Ritsuka to Douman 💚🧡🐈⬛🍊
Kuroha/Saeru's Love
On a side note, since I've been thinking about it.
Reminds me of the KagePro LNs. Seto in Kagerou Daze VIII -summer time reload- talks about "a monster incapable of knowing love"
In that instance, it actually wasn't in reference to Kuroha/Saeru, but it definitely reminded me of him.
Irt canon-verse Kuroha/Saeru, he lacks humanity and genuine tenderness and love compared to my other faves.
This guy is twisted at his core and so sick in the head (/pos) so none of his ships with the Mekakushi Dan members are ever going to be normal.
They're all going to have the aspect of their relationship that inevitably includes his twisted selfish love for the other party. It's fine though, that [character quality of his] makes him more interesting.
I prefer my ships with a certain level of mental illness /lh /j
Misc Rambles
I'm used to writing caption posts with the fandom/series name in the post description, and just copy post the same set of rambles to my socials.
"You're the worst person I met on Toontown"
This is the funniest heading I've had ngl 😭
Oh I SO want draw this meme with JuAli, KuroEne, and LimGuda...
Another reason why I put the fandom/series name in the heading, including for art, is also for my own sake to make it easier for me to immediately recognize when I need to sift through and find a specific post and either organize my posts or edit old ones
Magi: Kou Empire Arc - Ch. 266 - JuAli Confrontation on the Dark Continent
EN Fan-TL by Sense Scans
Official TL by Viz
Me: WAIT I JUST REALIZED. Y'KNOW WHO ELSE IS THE TOONTOWN MEME? THEM. ADKLSKLSDKLDSKL
C: LOL
Reoccurring dynamic
Me: I'm dropping the fan-TL here cuz I generally just prefer their prose over Viz's (and also cuz it gives me the full context of the dialogue)
I'll also put Viz's version just to have the scans in HD
Like in general, when it comes to all the series that I've seen from them, Viz's way of translating things is so boring sounding to me.
Judar: Someone like you, a naive trash bastard who can't sacrifice anything, won't be able to protect anything either!
Alibaba: (He's the worst person I've met on Toontown)
Or Ig change that to "He's the worst person I've met in Balbadd"
Cuz they first met in Balbadd ^^
Just change the wording a bit.
Instead of "You don't know the suffering of this world"
I'd use Judar's dialogue from their encounters on the Dark Continent in the Kou Empire arc for this cuz it just fits so well
If I were to draw this as a really efforted shitpost meme, I'd just draw Alibaba normally not in haniwa form to be able to take it seriously
Highly efforted shitpost meme cuz I'm just like that. I try to put effort into making my drawings look good in general.
Though admittedly some of my drawings look way better than others and that's perfectly normal
...
C: Irt the Toontown meme
Like my SK OC Rei is literally exactly these vibes I've tried to RP with him and almost every interaction of him and other characters has resulted in this NSNHNDNHNFKGKFKF
Me: LMAO
Your OC is so Sen core 🤭💖
C: He has gained a delusional meow meow in his bubble layer recently he is painfully sen-core now
Me: Yeah imo, being a morally questionable (and/or morally bankrupt) meow meow mf who has the capability for violence and sadism and a level of arrogance and ego that distances them from humanity and/or normal human social interactions is what defines the chara as a Sen-core Meow meow mf.
I think it's necessary to have this in order to be a meow meow mf, the ultimate Sen-core type.
These charas think they're the kings of the world if only inside their own heads. Delusional meow meow living in their own bubble <3
...
Me: Hao is the best SK chara imo he's like a baby Douman in SK
With that being said, SK is like Magi's anti-thesis /neg
Irt to how mad this fucking series made me with its writing and how insensitive it is about its heavy themes and characters' traumas and horrible backstories
Me: Just looked at my list again of ships where a chara has gold eyes (and it's not even all of it) and wow that's a lot
C: There is so much gold omg
Me: Iirc Hao's eyes are brown but are coloured red in some arts
C: Iirc yes
Me: I just tried to pick out ships where at least one chara has gold eyes
C: Still a massive amount of your ships
Me: Reminds me of Akechi (P5). Brown eyes but with a red~ish hue. His eyes get coloured as red in some arts too
C: Ooo true!
Me: I'm trying not to put too spoilery arts. I think these are totally fine.
