"Hate is like a typhoon. It begins as a breeze at the sea that is swallowed by darkness. Then deepens. Energizes and grows ever stronger. Swirling and raging until it's ready to strike.
But hate alone wasn't enough. It took one more ingredient: Love...
poisoned by betrayal, to bring so much bloodshed and woe to create the onryō."
-Blue Eye Samurai / The tale of the Ronin and the Bride (2023-)

Just thought you might want to see, "beauty-funny-trippy" made a gif out of your epic bedhead! 🙂 (They also make a lot of funny anti-republican memes/gifs you might enjoy and give thought-filled comments to your posts) Have a Great Day!
I love this!
