Do you still like eruri? I feel like you're not really interested in them anymore idk akdjskdsk sorry if this is rude to ask 😭
this is a bit rude to ask, yeah. i still like the pairing though i have other things going on, but interests and their intensity change naturally with time

Why do u like incest?
i don't lol. it's pretty repulsive to me, but to respond to what your real question is, i can tolerate the weird tastes of my friends and people i know personally because i'm an adult lmfao

I know this is a wild question, but do you ever intend to make a part 3 of that mchanzo/yeehan comic you made a few years ago? I just caught up on it and saw there was no resolution yet. I know it's a long shot, and please don't feel pressured. I'm just curious and hopeful haha.
no worries, thank you for the ask! if you mean the brainwashed talon hanzo comic, the chances are unlikely, i'm sorry! 😭i think i waffled too long on how to end the comic and it psyched me out, i'm as upset at you are that i never managed to finish it 🙈

hi HAEDRAULICS! i absolutely adore your art and regularly reread your writings on ao3. will you ever update "what remains"? its an absolutely amazing story with a beautiful view of politics and philosophy, and your characterisation of levi and erwin is one of the best ive read. ur welcome to ignore this ask if you feel uncomfortable answering. thanks!
hello anon! thank you so much for your generous compliments about my writing, it really means a lot to me 😭💕the 7th chapter of What Remains is actually at 9.7k words right now, but i'm imagining it will need at least another 10k for the chapter events to wrap up. i've been very much neglecting it since i last updated last year, but i've been super busy with various other projects and obligations gsdfjgjkgj however, i still really love the story and would desperately like to release a new chapter this year, i'm endlessly grateful that people still read my writing and look forward to new releases despite my chronically late release times! 🙈
if it's any comfort, i have basically all three arcs of What Remains plotted out- it's really a matter of turning drafts into prose! but who knows, maybe after i graduate school i'll have a wealth of time and energy to wrap up this story that i've already put so much into hhahaha

Hi! Is there anyway I can still buy the eruri zine??
hi! the PDF is available on my gumroad, but i'll also be putting up about a dozen physical copies that were leftovers from our reprint sale. i don't know when exactly (probably after my midterm exams) but you're more likely to get a proper time/date update on my twitter. thank you for the interest!

Hello! I recently bought the hanzo goes to therapy zine and absolutely loved it! I saw at one point you also had Aki no Shika - Behind the Scenes Zine available but it's no longer for sale. I was wondering if there was a way I could purchase that one? I would happily make a donation to the Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund for it! Thanks so much for your beautiful art ☺️
hi there! ahhh i'm actually not sure why i took off the behind the scenes zine, maybe i must have been embarrassed about my old self offering serious art advice 😂i didn't know there was still interest in it, so thank you very much! i'll reupload the product listing on gumroad when i put up a bunch of other leftovers for sale as well <3

I'm fascinated by your linework, super clean I have never seen anything like it... 🫣 do you use a stabilizer? what tablet do you use? what brushes? I am going insane sorry I just need to know! much love to you and your art! ❤️
thank you very much! i put a lot of stock into my lineart so i'm flattered you like it 😚i own a Huion GT-191 and an ipad 10.2. on my huion + clip studio setup i use a combination of tapered inking pens and soft rounded pens, but most importantly i curve my pressure to look like this:
Tumblr media
i find that this is what helps me the most to gain precise control over my line weight and size. i set my stabilizations depending on the brush, so it varies between 0-10 according to how uniform or tapered the brush is.
on ipad + procreate i have a fairly high stabilization to account for the naturally more jittery register of the apple pen, so it's around 10-20, and i mainly use the default soft airbrush set to a very small size for my inking pen.
there's a lot more to lineart besides the technical aspects of digital art, but i'm thinking i should save that for another post about principles of flow and tension! thank you for the kind words anon <3

I know you didn’t really like the “violence is inevitable” thing in AOT but , isn’t it true tho? The world unfortunately really is like that, no matter how many times we go back in history, look at the current world situation, I think it was pretty realistic from Isayama to depict the world of aot like that, it’s disappointing because of how much it comes close to reality imo
What I do agree with is how Eren is forgiven, especially in the fandom, like 💀💀
But I think the destruction in Paradis happened exactly because of that, because the world never forgave Eren and the Jaegerists for the genocide
Also, no hate, I just wanted to share my own view lol
helloo sorry for taking so long to reply to this, i'm ridiculously slow with my inbox 💀
i have two things to say about this, the first is that i'm skeptical that isayama genuinely wanted to tell a story about the inevitability of violence, and the second is that a theme in fiction reflecting some aspects of reality doesn't then make it interesting or well-written.
i raise the first point because of characters like kenny and gabi, who undergo major development because their dependence on violence is challenged by a show of compassion from another character (in kenny's case, from uri; in gabi's case, from the braun family). to me these characters indicate that the author wants to convey optimism about the power of human relations, regardless of how extreme or cruel the circumstances are. rather than, 'violence is inevitable', these stories convey that, 'violence is not more powerful than compassion'.
the way the epilogue goes, it renders these previous themes nigh meaningless. of course, states don't follow the same emotional logic as interpersonal relationships, but then it makes me question: what was the point of the additional pages? why did armin's final pages profess his conviction in the efficacy of communication and ambassadorship?
why, instead, wasn't his last page him getting shot and killed after stepping off the boat? if the intention was to convey 'the inevitable tragedy of violence'.
the reason why is because i don't think that was actually the message isayama wanted to tell, but rather, it was damage control for an ending that awkwardly failed to convey consequences for eren's actions. eren kills 80% of humanity, but all the main character's parents survive, and so do they. eren kills 80% of humanity, but his friends tearfully express their gratitude for his good intentions, and presumably live out long and peaceful lives.
in an ending with plot contrivances this inane, an author might want to bring some 'realism' back into his story. therefore, the civilizational collapse of paradis is not an earnest contribution to the messages of aot, but just tacked-on course correction.
in aot it's not 'violence is inevitable', it's 'violence is inevitable for you filthy side characters'. which is really sad, because ramzi was the protagonist of his own story, too.
additionally, i want expand on why a theme being 'realistic' doesn't actually make it interesting. 'violence is inevitable' is like saying 'racism is inevitable'. sure, a cursory glance at global history can prove that people have been ravaged by ethnic and national prejudice, that it's ongoing today, and it will probably persist twenty years from now. but is it inevitable? what utility does that statement have, if not to resign ourselves to making less meaningful attempts at improvement?
a story does not reveal anything truthful about the human condition by neglecting to mention our capacity for forgiveness. at times, aot is very capable at telling such a story that balances both cruelty and compassion, but for some reason is intensely clumsy at scaling up these themes to the level of states and state conflict (marley, for example, is a horribly developed setting). therefore i often feel that rather than the epilogue telling a pessimistic story about humanity, it tells a pessimistic story about statehood. but maybe that's a topic for another post hehe
thanks anon for the interesting ask!
