Guess what FUCKING DAY IT IS

To be loved

Is to be Changed

i won’t be picky, he’s still breathtakingly sexy either way

old concept art for the final chapter of my reylo comic Return, which i will probably never finish. these are from early 2023 and the idea was to have either ben or rey be trapped inside some sort of portal in the WBW and have the other fight to rescue them so they could return to the land of the living, basically. I never got around to drafting the rest of the plot for that last chapter but i wanted ben to really come to terms with his desire to start a new life with rey in which he is the person he always was and not the person he wanted to be, as Ben Solo and not Kylo Ren. i have many other sketches/illustrations in the vault and while it's unlikely the comic will ever be completed i'm still glad i took the plunge and made it bc i learned a lot along the way.

(the ben solo profile drawing with the butterflies in the top right of the last image is a sticker and available through my shop!)

You ever think about how Miri is unintentionally Kazurei's number one matchmaker. How, if it weren't for her, their hearts would still be closed off. Kazuki would still be running away from love, burying his heart in gambling and the like. Still wallowing in guilt and believing that he's undeserving of finding happiness. Rei wouldn't even consider himself capable of it, thinking that he is powerless beyond the cold-blooded murderer people (him) always believed him to be. They would be static, constantly hesitant and afraid to get past each other's walls beyond what they assumed is ideal, close but not enough to be able to completely understand each other. I mean, they do, but instead of having the guts to communicate and verbalize their inner feelings, they constantly tiptoe around each other's boundaries, hoping that the other will get the message. Miri, on the other hand, broke them free of their constraints and led them to the realization of what they genuinely want.

These two hitmen were emotionally constipated and the presence of Miri in their life allowed them to be capable, or rather, ready to love (again, in Kazuki's case). In the early days, I don't think that either of them were prepared to love at all. Even more, they'd deprive themselves of it -- it was an obligation as hitmen. To love was a hindrance in itself, and would inevitably lead to loss. From the bottom of my heart, fuck you Shigeki

I'm a firm believer that they only started falling in love in the events of episode 6-8 or even episode 11. In Rei's case, I personally headcanon him to have very light, warm feelings since the days Kazuki started taking care of him, but never having the name for it

yeah i remade this video. the timing isn't any better but there's miri now

Me an my mutuals rn

I feel like HypMic is at this weird point where they are lingering on how they want to proceed forward. I feel like the music for the 2nd DRB was very experimental, and I did appreciate that even if I didn't like all the music (except for that DragonAsh song tho that was ass LOL). It feels like KR is struggling with how to move forward with telling a story while using the voting system, as such they've kinda written themselves into a corner. Like it was obvious they wanted FP to win the 2nd DRB because it was needed for plot. But at the same time it really feels like the plot has slowed to a crawl at the same time, and between that and the music creeping away from rap you're kinda left with a feeling of disappointment overall. It esp hits harder when you're a fan of BAT and DH given how under utilized they still are in the grand scheme of things. But given how they placed them geographically it feels like yet another instance of KR accidentally writing them into a corner and struggling to rectify that so they can be more relevant but also make it make sense, idk. I still love Kuko no matter what even if the series is currently languishing. (it also doesn't help that there isn't really any unified fandom because of politics, too much content too fast, and people being so oshi-pilled they have no interest in touching content that doesn't interest them. Which again, sucks as BAT fan cuz we don't really have a translator solider for us.)

what’s really really annoying about that, is that it has been put out there that we’ve entered the third act in hypmic’s story and tho it’s not always necessarily the case, usually that means we are heading towards an end. and we are starting to see an end with a lot of og division plot threads so to be closer to the end than not and still having like a third of your cast floundering around is not good!!!!! at all lol!!!! unless there’s a max effort push to bring nagosaka into the fold, it really does feel like nagosaka, no matter what, will feel under utilised

hypmic’s slow to come plot bombs have been a staple since the beginning so i’m not mad at it, esp since i suspect those long waits have something to do with production values and making the next shiny, economically stimulating thing lol, but you’re right about it not being great rn when everything else is not great lol

but i will say hypmic has its formulas. like the way first solos were surface level character introduction raps and the second solos went into depth, for the og divisions, their first drb and preceding dramas were introductory and the 2nd drb dramas really dug deep into them. so hopefully the same will happen for nagosaka when the 3rd drb drama hits them lol 🤞

I finally finished this after making this poll forever ago! Here are Apollo and Rei as the latest two characters for my Ace Attorney x PLA swap. You can check out the other ones for Phoenix/Ingo, Trucy/Akari, Maya/Emmet, and Edgeworth/Melli at each of those links, and I think I'll start tagging them all now as "#ace attorney x pla" for easier access.

Also, plugging my commissions! If you like this, please consider commissioning me! Thank you! 💜

I feel like everyone on both sides blew Reylo way out of proportion. It's literally the most basic inoffensive Baby's First Enemies To Lovers™ ship. The reason there's like three billion published novels that started life as Reylo is because it's so by the numbers that it can be easily adapted to any ETL/RTL AU you can possibly think of.

And honestly I think as a collective the haters were way more unhinged than the fans because everyone acts like their ship is god's gift to romance, you come to expect that, but the way the anti-Reylo crowd at the peak of the sequel trilogy would have had you believe it was the most toxic and problematic ship ever? This? I've seen more moral complexity in Steven Universe.

Final Opnion on the Gogtroversy...

George is def going to be on the couch for a few months huh

KazuRei Week Day 1 - Growing Old

when miri is fully grown and moves away from the family home, the papas move to the countryside and become the unofficial elder gays in the little village

Generally envy the bitches on twitter right now trying to insist Mace Windu and Martha Jones and Finn won't victims of racist hatred in fandoms, because what fucking reality are they in and how can I get in.
