2nd playthrough i asked kim to send the corpse in the day just to get those stupid boots. it instantly lost the fun; vice versa if Kim becomes the only one left, it wouldn't be that interesting even though he seems the desired one (to the player, to harry). - I like kim, but I like them as a duo. Kim and Harry are inseparable for me.

i love DE fandom that there's never a wrong way to draw the main characters. I always recognize them by the basic shape languages and/or silhouettes. No much detail needed..no strict limits on proportions..however the artist likes.

about sexualizing Kim: drawing man with relatively realistic muscles relieves my stress. Echoing #1, I see eros in Kim when I imagine looking from Harry's pov. Kim is rather a perfect imaginary friend.

That said, I am no objection to sexualizing male fictional characters. In fact I think certain passion to sexualized male characters can be very affective.

Men with beautiful muscles in representations (2d or sculpture etc.) always offer more esthetic enjoyment to me. When I draw those muscle men they're usually in plain clothes. A white tanktop, or shirtless - I see goodlooking men in them all the time in real life I don't care. But a representation could suddenly be erotic.

Kim is not that type of erotic. So when I approach his physique in a more realistic way it can feel somewhat off. If I just draw them into handsome old men, (I'd enjoy the process but be bored), they're just handsome old men. i love this ship.
