#I ran out of images????

I'm still on my bullshit.
Today I will be writing a manifesto for why these two, Persimmon (owl) and Walnut (blonde) from the 2004 game Phantom Brave, should kiss.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(click the right image for the rest of Persimmon's hair)
1. Walnut is an asshole.
This is Marona, the game's protagonist:
Tumblr media
She's an adorable 13 year old girl who's never had a mean thought in her whole life. On his introduction Walnut attempts to beat her up and steal her lunch money. When he loses badly he instead goes to her customer and gets them to call her mean names until she runs away crying (successfully stealing her future lunch money). He laughs about this.
Tumblr media
He's 20.
Tumblr media
2. Walnut still somehow manages to have a friend.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately we have very few good images of Persimmon. But yes, Persimmon knows Walnut steals lunch money from 13 year old girls. In fact Persimmon hooked him up with the lunch-money-stealing job because he's an informant and knows about them.
What? He doesn't approve.
So why, then, does he hang out with a lunch-money thief? Why does he facilitate the lunch money stealing? Walnut doesn't so much as buy him a drink during the game.
Tumblr media
AND YET
2.1. Persimmon is a very very good friend.
Persimmon buys Walnut a drink:
Tumblr media
Thinks back fondly on their first meeting:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Worries over his health:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Panics when Walnut gets his ass handed to him:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And even mourns his "death" as the final credits scene:
Tumblr media
(Walnut is canonically not dead) (We don't talk about the game Endorph is in but it's proof Walnut is alive at least)
All this and Persimmon doesn't even know about Walnut's sister.
4. Walnut has a sister
Tumblr media
This is Castile. She's an adorable 13 year old girl who's never had a mean thought in her whole life. Also, she's sick.
4.1 The world is a capitalist hellscape
Castile's medicine costs as much per month as it costs to buy the island Marona lives on late in the game.
Remember how Walnut stole Marona's lunch money?
You may have already guessed where that's going.
5. Walnut's a sad little meow meow
Walnut* was adopted some unknown number of years prior by a wealthy family that is not wealthy anymore (sick sister). He didn't have a good time of it and ran away from home.
*real name Faded, idk why he gave up that impressively emo name either. Trying to match with Persimmon??? Gay.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also the power he uses to steal lunch money for his sister is killing him.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately for him, God Is Laughing At Him and stealing lunch money for his sister literally almost ends the world.
Tumblr media
6. The Sexy Lady Marona rents her Island from Has Many Secrets.
i. Brave: Person with the ability to burn their own soul for a major power boost. ii. Furry: An enthusiast for animal characters with human characteristics.
A bunny man sends you on several quests looking for the lady you rent the island from. You do not know she is the person you're looking for. Ironically these failed quests pay your rent.
Here's why this matters:
6.1 The island is very small and the only structure on it is a one bedroom house.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
6.2 Scarlet (sexy lady) does not want to part with the island because it has sentimental value. It has sentimental value because she lived on that island with... an owl named Jade.
Tumblr media
She lived on the island with an owl. She lived on the island with the one bedroom house with an owl.
Tumblr media
(This is official, they were lovers).
(The bunny man seems to be in love with her too, but this is irrelevant).
7. Walnut is the only other Brave in the game.
Despite the name, there is no Phantom Brave. It's more of a mindset for our protagonists. The power of the Brave belongs only to Scarlet (sexy lady) (loved and fucked an owl in the one-bedroom house) and Walnut (20) (steals lunch money) (only close relationship is with an owl).
Theories abound that Walnut may somehow be Sexy Lady's son, but this doesn't make sense because she's a furry. This is a NIS game so we can't be sure that matters, but Walnut appears fully human.
What matters here is... why draw this parallel? The Scarlet backstory is only available in a crazy endgame insane difficulty extra level. WHY have Scarlet the Brave be in love with an owl. WHY have Walnut's one friend be an owl. The game devs are telling us something. And it's that Walnut and Persimmon should kiss.
8. There's a fucking hammer somewhere in these damn NIS games that changes your race and by god if the owl thing doesn't do it for you that is RIGHT THERE-

ever since i made this post i've been thinking about how often utena avoids eye contact with akio.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and comparing that to her relationship with anthy where all they do is look at each other. it's the most prevalent form of intimacy between them along with the handholding.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and of course it shows how comfortable she is being with anthy compared to how nervous she always is around akio. but also, utena and anthy's relationship is all about learning to see each other for who they both really are. what they see isn't always positive, and it isn't always what they want to see, but they are always looking. while utena (understandably) often tries to avoid seeing akio for who he is.

Diasomnia Spoilers, Chapter 8 (JP)
part 1
.
.
.
.
After Idia finishes his explanation of the plan, he makes our Magic Stones able to switch our clothes (like a character customization screen / magical girls lmfao) and we use Silver’s UM to start moving around. The first dream we see is Epel’s
Epel's dream:
In his dream, Epel has a buff body but the same face (also his steps sound like a giant walking lmfao.)
Tumblr media
We go to talk to him, but he picks a fight with Sebek. In Epel’s dream he’s taller than both Sebek and Jack (😭). We have to convince him that this dream isn’t really what he wants in order to wake him up. He kinda loses it once we mention Vil.
We get blot clones of Vil and Rook that are trying to convince him to stay inside the dream, telling him how much Leona praises him as the best rookie in the magift team and how he embodies the strength and beauty of Pomefiore.
Tumblr media
Grim snaps and reminds him of his wish to defeat Neige as the “poisoned apple” after the VDC.
Epel finally wakes up and accepts his true appearance. We fight against the fake Vil and Rook. Epel uses his UM to win. After that, Idia (in tablet form) explains the situation him.
Tumblr media
Idia gives him the invitation he prepared, and we leave a fake copy of Epel’s body in the dream (the buff one 😭) to keep Malleus from finding out too soon.
We then move on to Rook’s dream:
Just as the new SSR showed: we are in a dream where Rook is still a Savanaclaw student. He is not a first year. He recognizes Epel and wonders if Leona asked to see him because of magift.
Tumblr media
We try the “Vil would be mad if he saw you looking like that” strategy on Rook, however he doesn’t understand why it would concern him since Vil is an RSA student (‼️)
Vil is also Neige’s best friend (‼️‼️‼️)
Rook begins his fanboy rant about Vil and Neige’s “friendship.” He always imagined them as besties, and he keeps talking about their interviews and how they behave with each other. Sebek snaps at him and gets him to shut up for a bit, Rook is apologetic for getting too excited since he doesn’t have anyone to talk about this topic in Savanaclaw (😭)
Ortho wants us to go into Rook’s room to get more information about this version of him to wake him up. Rook tries to stop us but we manage to get inside.
Tumblr media
His room is decorated floor to ceiling with Neige’s merch on the left and Vil’s on the right (😭😭😭😭)
Sebek voice: what kind of rituals are you performing here?
Rook has been keeping his room a secret for all of his three years at NRC. He says he can’t let us go now…without looking at his oshis’ DVD collection first (😭😭😭😭😭😭😭)
5 hours later. Everyone is tired, and Silver even fell asleep for the first time since we got stuck in these dreams.
Epel tries to make him remember the VDC, but in this Rook’s memory Neige sang Minna de Yahoo! alongside Vil. He tells us goodnight and we leave his room.
The group starts to wonder if this dream means that Rook would’ve preferred to not be friends with Vil, but Epel is against that idea. He thinks that Rook is still thinking about Vil’s overblot, and maybe he believes that if Vil and Neige weren’t rivals then Vil wouldn’t have gone through all that.
Our plan to make Rook wake up involves going to the Coliseum / VDC stage and sing Absolutely Beautiful (new rhythmic!)
We get a flashback of how we rehearsed the song. Epel guided us and assigned our places. Epel -> Vil / Ortho -> Jamil / Sebek -> Epel / Silver and Grim -> Adeuce combo / Yuu -> Kalim / Idia -> Audience and judge.
Idia is happy to take this role, since he is very strict about idol performances (😭) he also offered to get everything ready
Epel: ✨Really? Thank you, Idia-san! ✨
Idia: Ugh! It’s too dazzling! For a moment I thought I’d been reincarnated into an idol training game-
Idia: Pomefiore is frightening….
Idia: I mean, doesn’t this kinda make me a manager or a boys' idol group P?
Idia: “Idia Manager”….”Shroud P”…..Hah! It doesn’t sound too bad~
note: in the type of idol games Idia is talking about, the P stands for “Producer” (time to Ensemble our Stars)
Rook begins to wake up, but blot clones of Vil and Neige appear. They begin to sing Minna de Yahoo! and Rook gets distracted again. Epel starts to scream at him
Tumblr media
Epel: Look closely! The real Vil-san looks more wicked, and his eyebrows are so angled! His eyes are so sharp that his stare will make your heart skip a beat!
Epel: Your Roi de Poison! Our Queen! He is far more Poisonous and Beautiful [than the fake]!
Rook: Poisonous…Beautiful…?
Epel: Don’t you dare give out the words Vil-san wanted the most that day to those fakes! You’re a worse traitor now than when you voted for the Royal Sword Academy! (ouch)
Epel: Come on, wake up! ROOK HUNTEEEER!
Rook: One vote for RSA…traitor…ugh!
Rook: Ugh!….that’s right…in this world…the most beautiful thing in this world is…ARGH!
Rook wakes up, but the fakes are still trying to distract him. ( shoutout to Vil’s VA, this Vil speaks in a more…princely? manner. Definitely not Our Vil)
Rook knows this is a dream, but he still feels guilty about pointing his arrow at them
(Groovy spoiler for Rook's new SSR)
Tumblr media
Fake Vil voice: Neige get behind me!
✨MAGICAL GIRL TRANSFORMATION✨
We defeat the blot clones, and Rook and Epel have their reunion
Tumblr media
Meanwhile Sebek and Idia:
Sebek: I can’t believe it…you’re not only making me fight, but also dance.
Idia: Hehe. I managed to get a good recording of the magnificent Sebek-shi waving his arms and feet in such a clumsy manner.
Sebek: You-! Turn that off! If you show this to anyone, I will not let you get away with it!
Rook notices Idia and is moved by him “guiding the underclassmen as a Dorm Leader” (😭)
Idia is like “eh? Not really…I’m more of a P or a manager…”
Rook asks him to explain what happened at Lilia’s farewell party. Idia shows him the video too. Rook joins our party, receives the invitation, and leaves a clone behind. We move onto the next dream.

What brushes or programs do you use? Sorry if you've already answered this before!
My brushes have changed a lot since the last time I shared 'em! I use Clip Studio Paint with a mixture of my own brushes (download) and some altered character pens from ×ェ× (download). Explanations n' samples below~!
Tumblr media
For sketches I use my Brushy brush and a slightly altered version of ×ェ×'s character pens. My alterations to their pen were pretty minor - I reduced the variation in brush size, especially at the start and end of the stroke, to make it more like a standard lineart brush.
Tumblr media
I use my Grain brushes and another altered brush to refine the lines. Instead of creating a new layer for my line art, I draw the line art on the same layer as my sketch. I use these brushes to draw and erase, adding and subtracting from my sketch to clean it up.
Tumblr media
I don't use Rough or Bumpy too often, but they're good for cleaning up line art and creating fine detail. I use them to create intricate details and patterns that are actually just a bunch of little scribbles and loops when you zoom in
