Another fanart for @tenspontaneite‘s Paper Cranes fanfic.

I always wanted to draw Hikaru & Utagawashi’s first meeting, maybe because I want to try drawing the Kariginu and tate-eboshi (Kamo No Akira and Konoe No Hikaru crossed my mind). Also the Shinto shrine.

The image of Utagawashi in my head is “careful, a bit timid Kannushi but nevertheless a pretty normal-looking man”, so I tried to draw him as such. His expression here is anything but normal though. Probably because he saw Hikaru like this due to Hikaru’s circumstances:

Sorry for the small-res... it was supposed to be just doodles anyway. Might as well my only digital inktober. As I thought, I love black and white the most. A for updates of my own life, I’ll put it on the tags where it belongs.

Bonus: Shindou Hikaru and Utagawashi Kichirou’s budding friendship

“Being near me makes you feel physically ill? Then suffer!”
