ZTKuko's Randoms

I am an anachronistic jungle girl with crazy curly hair and the height of an Amazon. I hail from a spot of land in PEI, Canada where there's fields and woods and plenty of scope for the imagination. This blog is an amalgamation of everything I like, ranging from alternative fashions (like steampunk, mori kei, lolita, and boho), fantasy art, natural black hair appreciation, queer rights, and general geekery. I'm no snob, so if you feel like chatting, send me a convo anytime. I also run a cute little Mori Girl thrift shop on Storenvy called Kuko's Closet. If you like forest girl clothing and want it cheap, this is the place for you.

It's been a hot decade since I posted any Soriku art. I drew the lineart for this like 4 years ago and only now decided to colour it in. Sora's hair kinda got away from me a bit, so try to imagine he's like a Studio Ghibli character whose hair inflates when they're excited or emotional about something important. This missing scene should've been included in any Final Mixes for KH3 cuz literally NO ONE acknowledges Riku's hair after he got gobbled by the Demon Tower thingy.

Sora is such a fanboy and Riku is a gay disaster who secretly loves the attention.

“We followed our hearts to you.”

God, his smug little smirk… 

I love Riku’s character development in KH3 in general, but most of all, I love how he’s become so confident in himself, confident in his actions, accepting himself, feeling strong and invincible.

On top of this, it’s made abundantly clear in KH3 that Riku has become confident in his feelings. Feelings in general, but his feelings for Sora in particular. And now that he’s finally found the strength to protect who matters, he’s so sure that his heart will always find Sora, no matter where he is. 

It reminds me of KH1 Riku who was confident for all the wrong reasons. Now he’s confident and he smirks for all the right reasons.

This is what makes me think of when Sora left one last time to go rescue Kairi, and Riku was the only one who said “Believe in him.” He knew that no matter what happened to Sora, Riku would find him. That’s how confident he is about his feelings for Sora.

It's finally summer! I gotta get down to the beach and start up my sea shell collection. 🐚🧜🏽‍♀️ These beautiful mermaid tails are going to a shop on the north shore of Prince Edward Island, but I wanted to take some photos of them before they're adopted. To adopt one of your own, PM me or check the shop: kukocreations.etsy.com

I was experimenting with a technique I saw in a tutorial on cdhm.org except theirs was for fairy wings for dolls and I used a resin coating to keep the tail ridged. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. What do you think?

Last minute crafting for #AnimeNorth! I swear, I'll go to bed soon! *checks clocks* 7am, eh? 😫

The ideas in my head are a lot like Roman gladiators, each battling one another for a chance of glory. A couple months back, I got a big bag of mixed vintage keys to play with. I finally got around to decorating them. Necklaces and keychains incoming to #AnimeNorth! 😀
