I really like(d) climbing trees myself, so one of my favorite things is that Kurogane always used to be climbing the highest trees

Kurogane Week - Growth
“Can you tell us what went on in the utaki?”
“Yeah, I’ll tell you. I want you to ask me about it.”
“Alright, then. As long as you’re not putting everything on yourself.”

Kurogane Week Day 5: Laid Bare
With a prompt like that, I couldn't resist. This may be the most risque sketch I've ever done!

☾ Kurogane Week: Day 5 (Aug 29th)
– Laid bare
[cw: violence, anxiety]
Ember and ash and blood beneath his nails had forced him to know the taste of powerlessness. He’d spent too long burying it (spent too long in denial), bound beneath an identity carved from shadow and steel. 
(The child had been left behind. He’d built a man in its place.)
The shell chips away, bit by bit – too many restless nights alone; too many mornings risen before the dawn, too silent, too empty. It’s the loss of his father’s sword (a safety net, not a weapon, its meaning forgotten beneath the bloodshed) that cracks him.
(It’s no longer a thing he can rely on, that strength. A new one must be grown from the ashes.)
He learns, slowly, not to say no.
When the princess stares at the scar that mars his palm, he clenches his teeth, unfurls his fingers, lets her see. 
When the kid sits with moonlight caught in Hien’s blade, asks quietly what Ginryuu meant to him, Kurogane takes in a slow breath, loosens his fists, tells him.
When the manjuu prods why, more nights than not, he doesn’t sleep, he toys with his empty glass, leaves the bottle untouched; mutters lowly, Because I can’t.
It tastes like bile, stings like a wound still bleeding – but he opens himself, gradually.
(He can’t lose them again.)
The panic strikes, one night (never should have gotten close, never should have tried again), too familiar and too forgotten. 
(The child had been buried, but not lost.) 
It’s okay, the mage murmurs, over, and over, and over again, and Kurogane slowly –
(breathes, head puddled to one thin shoulder, brow wrinkling and chest too tight, every layer stripped to nothing but this –)
Slowly, he starts to believe it.

Kurogane Week day 4: Demons.
Just a rough sketch today, I'm sorry. Got a lot going on at the moment.
I really loved Oto, though. I think that world mirrored Kurogane's childhood and truly kicked off his character development.

– Demons
(They are the source of his nightmares. The foul creatures he loathes deeply. Or he is the demon himself with his dark, violent tendencies.)
