Unless You're Me And Your Idea Of Fixing Something Is "yeah, No- Everyone Still Dies; The Remaining Characters

unless you're me and your idea of fixing something is "yeah, no- everyone still dies; the remaining characters just notice, now. I've introduced this nifty new emotion into the narrative- it's called 'grief'."

i just want to bathe in his blood

what's the level of brainrot when you're making dakimakura of the senior citizen blorbo :D

So, years ago, I was super into Fire Emblem Heroes. I played that shit religiously, almost from day 1. I loved the idea of it, that characters from older games and the less popular ones from newer games might get new art and voice lines. I played for so long, hoarding my orbs like a dragon, in hopes that characters I liked would get alts, and when the whole resplendent thing happened, that they might at least get skins.

I was sorely mistaken, and I uninstalles the game once fallen!Edelgard made it clear that my hopes for a fallen!Gunter were as misplaced as people in hell hoping for ice water. But before I purged FEH from my heart, I'd drawn respendent alts for my most used units. I posted them on Reddit, but now I'm posting them here (these are the digital color versions- each image started life as a pen and paper illustration that I'll upload when I can find them)

Hel!Gunter is the canon one- I just wanted to try making a masculine fairy design. I DO actually have proper Ljósálfar and Dökkálfar resplendents/alts (just pen drawings, no digital) and a Niðavellir and Joutun design. I might finish/polish them one day.

(You can probably guess the theme for my old default arena/aether raid team~♡)

I've finished working for the day

But you won't come home anyway

So I'll bring the surprise I've been planning to you

I can't wait to hear what you're going to say...

Oh, my damn. I completely forgot I painted this. It was one of the last pieces of art I made on my old trusty lappy before it fully conked out. I posted on twitter (well back before Apartheid Clyde stuck his sticky fingers into it) but I forgot until I was looking through the files on my old phone's memory card.

If you haven't seen the og PV for "The Tailor Shop on Enbizaka", uh... go watch it and this pic will make a lot more sense.

Non-animated version for your viewing pleasure:

(God, I used to be decent at digital art... what happened to me?)

I've finished the sequel/afterstory for my Binary Star Hero fic- y'know, the one all the fanart I've done was for?- but now I'm delaying posting it because I have this idiotic notion in my head that my fanfics should have cover art for no reason other than the fact that I've been doing it for years. Don't know why I do it, it doesn't accomplish anything, but that awful voice in my head says "this literary work isn't complete without a visual representation of its themes".

Y'all got that dog in you? Well, I got that perfectionist in me and I wish I could take it behind the shed with a shotgun.

Maybe I'll just do the cover later...?
