2017 vs 2021

You are the piece of me I wish I didn't need Chasing relentlessly... Still fight and I don't know why
If our love is tragedy, why are you my remedy?
this song/video is such a vanven mood. like... perfectly captures the energy. i had to stop myself from drawing more scenes.
placeholder watermerk im gonna try to fucking use watermarks again this year who knows maybe ill commit for real this time
two quick redesigns down and im already questioning my judgement
“headcanon time i guess? when axel and kairi fight together they do a lot of 'stumbling' over one another. since kairi was more of a novice than axel, he got kinda good at working with her and making up the difference. its kinda like swing dancing in my head lmao”

and now for a palette cleanser of happy art....?
His throat jumped as a single finger hooked on the velvet ribbon that encircled it, thumb caressing the soft material. That sound… it lulled him into a stupor every time.
“Have you forgotten…?” Xemnas asked; his voice was low, a threat lingering in the space between them as he continued. “Your allegiance is to me.”
Axel’s eyelids felt heavy but he kept them open, brow furrowed as Xemnas pulled him closer by the ribbon. When it came to that thin strip of fabric, he always allowed even the lightest touch to move him… Because putting strain on it could break it, and breaking it had consequences. His condition was not only to obey but to be careful, gentle, predictable… to fully disarm himself. He was dangerous when he was upset. Not only to himself, but everyone else, too. He needed discipline, he needed to be receptive to precise, exacting control if he wanted to be useful to anyone.
“I know… I’m sorry.” Axel apologised again. It hurt to breathe… Xemnas had already made up his mind. How long did he plan on making Axel grovel before he told him it wasn’t good enough?
“Fickle thing,” Xemnas finally murmured, tugging on the ribbon, pulling it taut, “Have I been too neglectful, again?”
I really do just look for the worst possible thing to do to this man and then do it, dont i
Fragments of joy torn apart A freshly-drained heart that beats Disguise themselves through him He'll say that it's nothing new And swear this is true For you, I'll swallow the ocean
collab with my boyfriend for my 2006 emo/scene-era AU that needs a better name at some point.

companion piece to this i guess cause i still wanted to listen to the song lmao
i used to listen to summer shudder and imagine a plot to the lyrics that very much involved being thrown off a building by a loved one so... thats what i guess i drew...???
i mean if you listen to AFI you might be aware that their whole contents general theme for a while was being misunderstood and a bad wrong person for reasons you rarely understand, also dying--especially dying FOR or WITH someone... AFI was very formative for me...
been trying to capture the moods of some of my fave songs recently, i miss the more synesthetic inspired shit i used to do.
