Mizuki is just too precious ( T ^ T) I honestly just want him to be happy.

I wanted to draw Mizuki ever since I started watching the DMMD anime. It had about 5 episodes back then, and I was just thinking “Ah, yes, this guy is my favourite character”, when Aoba got a call from Koujaku, saying MIZUKI’S DISSAPPEARED. Yeah, thanks, darling.

(More babbling below the cut, I write way too much.)

I watched the whole DMMD anime just because I wanted to see Aoba saving Mizuki, but all I got was one picture of him smiling (which is honestly better than nothing). So I wanted to see his waking up scene in the game, but I only found one video – that had spanish subtitles. That was really lucky though, because I got so pissed, that I just watched the route of my fave boyfriend (Can you guess which one it is? It’s so painfully obvious …) and this finally got me into DMMD as a whole. In the meantime there are two of the boyfriends, that I like even more (but I still ship only one with Aoba, haha), but Mizuki’s still … way too precious for all this.

(By the way, in the end I watched the spanish video. I found a english transcribtion of Mizuki’s good end and read that while watching the video. … Honestly this was the most mental exhausting thing I’ve ever done. Trying to pay attention to three foreign languages when I only spoke one of them … Whew.)

You know, I was going to say, that I procrastinated uploading this pic for almost a month (since March 7th, Mizuki’s birthday), but I procrastinated drawing it for almost two years in the first place so I guess those few days don’t make much difference anymore.

New avatar! Plus a coloured version - AND the unwanted norted version, that happened when I accidentally activated all layers except the blue one (which included the skin layer copy I had). Ironic.

You know, I’ve got so many favourite characters. Quiet a few characters I feel a certain connection to, in whom I recognize a part of myself … and still Saix is special. Not like he’s got a special place in my heart, but more like he is my heart. I’m never going to escape this guy ever again in my whole life.

So, yeah. My very first crack pairing ever. (Well, maybe not as much crack as I thought, because it turned out there’s in fact a vague, but possible basis for them, but I’m still trying to forget the end of AA3, so ... )

It just suddenly started with Godot saying “I’m already seeing a very hot someone, so I’m afraid you’ll be waiting for a very long time.”  And I was so perplexed by Simon Blackquill immediately coming to my mind, that I almost missed the Godot pun. Both of them. (coffeemaniac)

I just love the dynamics that would result from their interaction, with Simon being someone who gets what he wants by manipulating people, frightening them mostly, and Godot on the other hand being completely unfazed by such methods, (almost) always staying collected and always on top of the situation, incredibly dominant too. I imagine it as a constant, playful, power struggle with a lot of tension. And I love tension.

Well, I know which one I’ll be choosing.

[Well, that’s a bloody big ship.]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY @kittendough!! Alte Schachtel Some 00Q, just for you! Hope you have a wonderful day/year/life! :DD

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 6: Endgame

Awakening.

And – done! <3 

This week was a lot of fun :’) Found awesome people, finally had the motivation to draw some fanart for this amazing manga, got something that might one day be a real Di[e]ce cosplay group started and some nights I had trouble falling asleep because I was just too happy. (Didn’t change anything about being tired the next day though.)

I know I’m repeating myself here, but ... read the manga. Believe me, you’ll love it.

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 5: L_ST (L o st)

» I will destroy this world. «

One of the things I love the most about Di[e]ce is how much worse Haruki, who values life so much, who’s organized and caring, is able to deal with everything that happens, compared to Kazuki. Sure, Kazuki breaks down on several occasions, but he doesn’t fall.

The blood on Haruki’s hands just weighs so much more than that on Kazuki’s…

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 4: Love

awww sions heart is beating for kazuki and sunflowers

day 4 is just a little doodle since im sick in bed and its a miracle that im even awake at all  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 4: Love

» The colour of evening … «

There are so many different kinds of love depicted in Di[e]ce … It was really hard to pick one relationship. (In the end I just accepted that I wanted to draw Sion really bad.) I absolutely love how Kazuki’s and Sion’s relationships develops over the course of the story. :’)

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 3: Reflection

» You don’t get it, do you? It’s way more frightening to be alive without knowing what for. «

I don’t really have anything to say, except that I love everything about Yuki and Ruka. Their differences and similarities, their dynamic. And the way their story shows how much one encounter can change a life.

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 3: Reflection

sweet characters… sad backstorys.. feeeeeeels Dx

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 2: Focus

haruki opening pandoras box trying to focus on all the information overflowing his blank mind

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 2: Focus

This time, I will protect you. You alone are my reason to live.

I’ve never felt this alive before.

I think Naoto is my favourite Di[e]ce character, except for Haruki. Then again, this always tends to depend on who’s important for the story at the moment. I love all of them. But Naoto ... Naoto ... aww.

I just love how he leaves everything behind, all of his past and his fears and insecurities to concentrate on what matters the most to him.

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 1: The Die Is Cast.

Today is the first day of daw and this is my contribution :D

I hope you like it ;)

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 1: The Die is Cast.

Don’t leave me.

I love how you start reading Di[e]ce and you’ve got no idea what’s going on. The word itself isn’t even mentioned in the manga’s first volume and even later on, whenever it seems like things are getting clearer, they just don’t.

This manga turns everything upsidedown. The plot, the characters, their relationships … There’s just so much tension in this manga, it’s incredible.

Di[e]ce is probably one of the most underrated manga existing. I know those few days won’t change anything about that, but it’s worth a shot anyway.

If you like intelligent, well-though-out plot, hinted boys love, deep characters, with even deeper development, tragic pasts, beautiful and detailed artwork and ethic questions … then this is what you’ve waited for!

PLEASE READ THIS MANGA. Just do it.

Dates range from November, 11th to 16th.

11|11 – The die is cast (or Black or White King) 11|12 – Focus (or Favourite Character) 11|13 – Reflection (or Favourite Chess Piece) 11|14 – Love (or Favourite Relationship) 11|15 – L_ST (or Favourite Di[e]ce) 11|16 – Endgame (or Free Day)

I know this is on a extremely short note, but should anyone feel like joining in: Please do it! This manga needs more love! Art, edits, mangacaps … everything is perfectly welcome!

I guess, it will be just me and @kittendough fangirling for a few days, but that’s fine as well. And who knows, maybe I’ll be surprised.

Cosplay shooting with friends! Big thanks to the one who talked me into cosplaying as well, rather than just taking photographs and who took those cool shots then!

By the way, cosplaying Saix on conventions is great! The reaction of other Kingdom Hearts fans is always amazing. Especially the Axel cosplayer are incredible nice and cool! … Is it just me or is AkuSai getting more and more popular?

(Based on this post.)

I just ... I’m really sorry for all of the sad AkuSai stuff I’m usually producing. By the way, no, I’m still not dead. I hope you’re all doing great? :’)

AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 12: SET C - “Gradient”

Your behavior towards me changed. You changed.

It was important to keep a close eye on the wielder of the keyblade. Up to this very day, I cannot claim to know the full truth behind Xemnas’ – behind Xehanort’s plan. The essential part this boy played in it was obvious nonetheless. It was only logical to let you watch him.

As always though, you didn’t quite act as I was expecting. You never did, and still I could have never forseen the outcome this would cause. By the time I realized, it was already too late.

I was already losing you to him.

So, Axel with a ponytail B) And a braid. And a lot of hairclips. Or: This monster of a wig is killing me, send help.

I’ve been breathing nothing else but hairspray for days. It’s not as bad as dying a wig in a room with too little ventilation though, that one can really make your head go funny. x’D

Wow, this wig really makes me go through a lot, and I fear that it might be worth it in the end. Which is terrible because that increases the risk of me doing it again. I’m unteachable when it comes to things like this, ahaha.

W . I . P

Just thought I’d show you what I’m spending my free time on lately. Still so much to do!

So, anyone continuing AkuSaiMonth with me?

AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 11: SET C - “Patterns”

How could you smile like that? How could you smile without a heart.

Everything was becoming routine so fast. I was separated from everyone else from the start. I realized it, yet this was giving me the best access to information, so I welcomed it anyway. You never stopped smiling whenever I send you off to those missions. You were joking and grinning, like nothing had happened. Like nothing was wrong at all. You seemed to do so perfectly fine. Unlike me.

I tried to tell myself that I was doing all this for you, for us, so we could go home together, as whole beings again, but soon the thought began to change in my head. It didn’t take long before I found myself blaming you for everything. A little more every time you smiled at me.

AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 10: SET C - “FREE SPACE”

“It won’t be.” "Huh?" "It won't be okay, unless we make it. "You have a plan?" "Not yet. We don't know enough. Our only chance at the moment is to play along." "So, you do have a plan." "I doubt it's worth calling it that." "Pft, whatever. Don't be so grim, Isa. We can do this, right!"

I felt like falling. It was a vertigo, things were keeping to blur before my eyes. It was hard to keep myself together at that time. Being with you helped. Apparently I was the only one struggeling with this. I know for sure that you didn't. Then again, I was also the only one who had had an X carved into his forehead. 

It was incredible how fast the wound had healed – or rather, how fast it had scarred.

AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 8: SET C - “Ultimate Demise”

“So pathetic. Weren’t you trying to protect your friend? Now look what you have done.” “What ... what did you do to Lea?!” “No, the real question is: what did you do?” “What are you talking about! I didn’t do anything.” “Precisely. You just watched as he sacrificed himself. Even now, you do nothing. Aaah ... now, do you really think looking at me with such hateful eyes will bring your precious friend back?” “You killed him.” “Killed him? Dear boy, do you really think, this is what death looks like? No, he’s not dead.” “Then what?!” “Hmhm... Do you wish to see him again? Do you wish to save him? I can bring you to him.”

AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 7: SET C - “Explosion”

I saw him coming.
 Never before had I seen anything like what he held in his hands, but I didn’t need to to know it was dangerous, that he was dangerous. 
I shouted out to you, reached for you in order to push you out of his way, but you grabbed me instead and held on to me. I don’t even know if that’s what you were planning to do, but you acted as a shield to me, the last thing I would have ever wished for.

I won’t ever be able to forget the pain I saw in your eyes as you disappeared without another word.

AKUSAIMONTH: BERSERK Day 6: SET C - “Shapes (Silhouettes)”

“We've tried for years! If there was a way, we would have found it by now!” “We've got to try it anyway!” “Why can’t you just let it go? We won’t get in, accept it already!” “No, you don't understand! Things have changed! I saw those shadows!! I know, you don't believe me, but-” “I do believe you. That's exactly what gets me worried! If those creatures really did come from the castle, then who knows what's still luring inside there!” “Right, nobody knows. Because noone's been there, noone's seen it!” “That's not what I-” “But it's just what I mean!” “Lea.” “No, I'm going. With or without you.”

I don't know whether or not he went to the castle that day. He never told me. If he did, he failed, just as we had countless times before. The next time though I did follow him, and he didn't even need to ask. For the next time was when his warnings and my nightmares finally came true. When the world as we knew it, seemed to end.
