“Nightmare“ part 1
"There's a noose 'round my neck and the further I get It's harder and harder to breathe, can I find a way to cut the rope?"
I finally finished watching violet evergarden. I watched the first 5 or 6 weekly but after a point I just had to stop. As someone who’s lived with ptsd for as long as I can remember, violet evergarden made me feel a lot of things. I saw young her and empathized and remembered a lot of things I normally try not to think about. Sincerely, thanks.
I can't leave LFLS alone today after that last chapter. Here's a color portrait of some ninpo-unlocking Leo after a long road of healing (a long, loooooong road).
MINOR SPOILERS FOR LIKE FATHER LIKE SON BELOW PIC
It's called Karai's Last Gift. In the LFLS timeline I HC that instead of the traditional black wrappings, Karai's spirit gives Leo white ones when he unlocks ninpo. She wouldn't do anything to trigger his PTSD. It's a very fitting color as it resembles journeys, spiritual connection, and cleansing.
I cried a couple of times on this one. Once because it's emotional and once because I hate vector layers with my whole fucking heart. I'm very satisfied with how it turned out considering I doodled it so quickly. Like less than 4 hours.
@eternalglitch This is just me imagining the first time Leo initiates a touch. It makes sense to me that it’d be Donnie. Hope you like 👉 👈
I have another one coming that makes more sense in color, too :) Thanks for the heartache fodder!!!
