ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ᴀᴇꜱᴛʜᴇᴛɪᴄꜱ: ᴊᴜʟɪᴇᴛᴛᴇ ᴄᴀɪ

"ᴡʜᴀᴛ ᴡᴏᴜʟᴅ ɪ ʙᴇ ɪꜰ ɪ ᴡᴇʀᴇɴ'ᴛ ᴀ ᴄᴀɪ?"

"This is where we belong, Roma. This is where we will always belong.“ The voice quavers even with the surety of such words. They fool themselves. These heirs think themselves kings and queens, sitting on a throne of gold and overlooking a glittering, wealthy empire. They are not. They are criminals—criminals at the top of an empire of thieves and drug lords and pimps, preparing to inherit a broken, terrible, defeated thing that looks upon them in sadness. Shanghai knows. It has always known. This whole damn place is about to fall apart.

Was the line between enemy and friend horizontal or vertical? Was it a great plain to lumber across or was it a high, high wall—either to be scaled or kicked down in one big blow? - chloe gong, these violent delights

this was her life. this was her city, these were her people, and because she loved them, she had sworn to herself a long time ago that she would do a damn good job of being who she was because she could be no one else.

OUR VIOLENT ENDS by @chloegong

I made a vow to you, Roma.’ She took a step forward. No one stopped her. ‘Where you go, I go. I will not bear a day parted. I will take a dagger to my own heart if I must.

fave books read in 2021 - these violent delights and our violent ends by @chloegong

There will be hatred. There will be war. The country will fight itself to pieces. It will starve its people, ravage its land, poison its breath. Shanghai will fall and break and cry. But alongside everything, there has to be love - eternal, undying, enduring. Burn through vengeance and terror and warfare. Burn through everything that fuels the human heart and Sears it red, burn through everything that covers the outside with hard muscle and tough sinew. Cut down deep and grab what beats beneath, and it is love that will survive after everything else has perished.

“This city is filthy and deep in the thrall of unending sin, so saturated with the kiss of decadence that the sky threatens to buckle and crush all those living vivaciously beneath it in punishment.”

Don’t ignore half of me so you can fit me into a box. Don’t do that.

Only a fool folds a winning hand.

Some simple studies (of varying degrees of quality heh) of a film I have a very soft spot for! I want to do a more involved illustration in the future!!
