larger than life

#final fantasy vii #sephiroth #cloud strife #sefikura #in like. the sense of being cosmically thematically intertwined #angeal is there too if you look really closely

big hal warmup

#final fantasy xiv #halmarut #ffxiv #that 7.5……….i’m all in i’m completely in

you and I have begun to blur

#final fantasy vii #cloud strife #sephiroth #sefikura #when you’ve been in the time loop long enough the other guy who keeps showing up to kill you starts looking.. kinda fine😳

Being a sephiroth guy is very cool and sexy I have been a sephiroth guy for 25 years

what they don’t tell you about the most famous jrpg villain probably ever is he’s kind of a deeply interesting little freak. like there’s a reason he’s bewitched so many

#the tension between being the most abused boy in the whole world and also a complete fucking menace to everyone is so delicious #he makes me so sad and yet i can’t condone a single thing he does. how fun

guess I’ll see you in another life

#final fantasy vii #aerith gainsborough #sephiroth #cloud strife #clerith #sefikura #<- for the insane like me #ok so this is the part where i reveal that i’ve been privately losing my damn mind over ff7 for the past three months but have been too busy #i meditated under a waterfall(played basically everything) and emerged from the experience a sephiroth guy with a minor in aerithology

hi i was just looking at your old phoenix edgeworth kristoph "a game for two or three" fanart from 2021, and i know its really old, but it kinda stood out to me that it looks like kristoph and edgeworth are both "leading" the dance, with phoenix "following" their move more flexibly, but in the final image with edgeworth and kristoph it appears more stiff because seemingly both of them are still trying to "lead" the dance rather than follow. was this intentional or am i just spewing brainworms rn?

in general im curious abt thought you might put into your art that may not be immediately obvious

omg.. well, i can't claim my memory of what was going through my head at the time is perfect cause that piece is four and a half years old, but i did go to look at it again to jog my memory and you're not too far off lol. actually lets all look at it again because i still love this one.

so i loveee using ballroom dance because you can really pack a lot of subtext into a single pose. while i can't say i was thinking about leading/following in those terms exactly, they were each meant to convey how i see that dynamic:

kristoph+phoenix, to me, is largely defined by the game of chicken they're playing, so phoenix is having a bit of cheeky fun being dipped- it's a performance of faux-vulnerability. he's allowing kristoph to believe he's in control of the situation. whether or not he buys it is up to you.

phoenix+miles are very intimate. obviously. this era of their relationship for me has always been about how romantic i find the concept of being in on a scheme together, a sentiment i think is shared more with phoenix than with miles, who doesn't find any of this very fun. this is a point in the long arc of their relationship where it's his turn to make sure the other doesn't slip away, hence why he's pulling phoenix in.

kristoph+miles are, as you correctly latched onto, very stiff. these are two guys who are obsessed with decorum, and thus are performing a dance so properly that it looks joyless. i always imagined them both wanting to keep the other close enough to keep an eye on, but not so close that they know what they're up to, and so they have the rigid arm's distance of two people scared to touch

#this was a fun surprise ask ty i hadn't thought about this in a while #you can tell i was eager to procrastinate on gamedev work by how extensive this answer is lol #anonymous
