looking at Malleus outfit without the cape... I just realised how his whole outfit is a body suit(?) without the cape and gloves akjdja (this is not really confirmed yet so im patiently* waiting for the official design notes for glomas).
Although i think the puffy sleeves belongs to the main outfit as well--
His horns looks so tall without the hat now๐
NO BUT UH... Thinking of this being an entire one piece of clothing makes me ILL-- Because you know what the back side of this outfit isโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ๐งโโ๏ธ๐งโโ๏ธโจโจโจ
ITS LITERALLY THIS, YOU ONLY NEED TO TIE THE LACING ON THE BACK TO BE PUT ONโผ๏ธโผ๏ธโผ๏ธ
Why is he lowkey implied to enjoy wearing clothes that has only one way to be wore on akdjkss
Its like the same occurence on his Dorm Groovy, he isnt wearing anything in exception of the coat and like his outfit on Glorious Masquerade,,,, his dorm uniform literally has only one way to undress from which is the zipper on the left side...โจโจโจ๐งโโ๏ธ๐งโโ๏ธ๐งโโ๏ธ
so if perchance PERCHANCE we get into the situation where we might want to undress him... then its just in one swift process yk๐งโโ๏ธโจโจ๐
he is BEATING the allegations of victorian men wears multiple layers and thus difficult to undress--- He truly is the twst character that symbolizes 'Lust'๐งโโ๏ธ๐๐
saw your Dragon Mizu and wanted to say she looks absolutely gorgeous <3
But I also noticed that in a sketch dump you posted, there was a sketch of Dragon Mizu and someone next to her, is that Chiaki?
If is it the man himself, could we please have some sketches of him?
(Pls I love I your art so much and the you draw Chikai is just ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ so beautiful!!! I think he would amazing as a dragon, not to mention the damage he could do once he learns how to balance his weight, could break a person's has with him tail. So could Mizu, but I feel she would use her tail as balance control more than anything)
Thank you!! Your words are always so sweet <3!! And to answer all of this, yeah it was Chiaki lol xd
I had some drawings here and there with Mizu included :D!!
I like the idea that you put there, it would be nice to draw that. This whole thing was more of those โhuh im gonna draw my fav character like thisโ type of moments and didnโt think much about it. Plus, japanese dragons are just my roman empire lol.
I think this is all I have for now ๐ญ, I always encourage people to follow my IG so you guys can see the other stuff I show sometimes from other aus in my stories and Iโm more active to talk with yโall <3๐

Hi there, friend! I'd love to hear you ramble about two of my favorite Black Clover pairings Langris x Finesse and Finral x Vanessa, if you don't mind? Also, can I hear your Duck x Fakir from Princess Tutu opinions as well please? The awesome fanart you've been reblogging of them recently has given me life! Cheers!! ๐
Hi Acacia, thank you so much for the ask!! ๐ Iโm having a horrifically busy semester, so I greatly appreciate the chance to sit down and talk about some of my favorite characters. This is SO EXCITING, prepare for a very lengthy post ๐
๐๐ Duck x Fakir (Starting with these two because they are my everything right now.)
My roommate convinced me to watch Princess Tutu a few weeks ago and I totally fell in love with it! The character arcs are so spectacular. I actually thought about asking you if you had seen it, as it seemed like something you might like based on the other shows you post about (But then I had already pitched it to everyone I knew irl so I figured I should just relax ๐).
But getting back to Duck and Fakir, I think theyโre absolutely perfect for each other. Personally, it makes sense and compels me. I believe itโs canon that they have feelings for each other, or at least itโs strongly implied? Either way, Duck inspires Fakir and Fakir believes in Duck, which i think is so sweet, and I feel like Duck and Fakir bring out the best in each other. Also, the way they change together throughout the story is so beautiful! They both end up in way more mature and healthy places than when they started and were a big part of the other personโs growth. I think the best ships are the ones where the narrative weaves their stories together in that way.
This is just me ranting, but I need to mention how beautiful it is that Fakir loves Duck not as Princess Tutu, just as Duck. In Mythoโs case, he thought of Duck as a friend and he was very kind to her, but he didnโt love Duck, he loved princess Tutu. For Fakir to love the real her ties in SO WELL with how she grows from her insecurities and confusion about her identity. I could also scream for a very long time about the fact that Fakir would stay with her forever, even if she was only a duck. The love they have for each other is so mature, but also so sweet and innocent at the same time. Theyโre perfect!
Thatโs why the conclusion of their arc broke my heart so much, because they were perfect for each other and would have made each other so happy. Itโs so bittersweet. I wouldnโt change it for anything, but Iโm a sucker for the fics on ao3 where Fakir writes her back to being a girl. I can envision them having such a happy future together.
๐ฉต๐ค Langris x Finesse
Im so excited to get the chance to talk about these two. Theyโre one of my all time favorite pairings and theyโve been on my mind recently! In my opinion, they make sense and are super compelling.
I sort of feel like at this point, Iโve thought about them so much that theyโre more like my headcanon characters than a faithful representation of the actual characters in the show (I tend to do that lol๐ ). But even if I try my hardest to separate all of that from what is officially canon, I personally think that Langris and Finesse make more sense than Finesse and Finral. I could see those two being good together under different circumstances even if they arenโt my favorite ship, but Iโm really not on board with the way the show is handling it. Iโm not gonna open the can of worms that is Finral returning to his abusive household right now, but that is very unhealthy (and it seems like the show is encouraging it??) Even beyond that, I feel like Finral isnโt in the right headspace right now for a healthy relationship. Heโs trying his best and I wholeheartedly believe that he cares about Finesse. But heโs been using romance and idealizing girls as a coping mechanism for a very long time, and from what we see on the show I feel like heโs romanticizing Finesse to a degree that wouldnโt be healthy in the long term. Sheโs his childhood crush and dream girl, and he feels like if he becomes โgood enoughโ for her he can โwin her heart.โ I donโt know if Iโm explaining this right at all, but in my opinion heโs not really treating her like a partner, as much heโs treating her like an ideal to someday be good enough to achieve, which is more tied in with his own self worth than actually seeing her and loving her for all she is. (Although I would totally see them together under different circumstances if he takes time to work on himself!)
Anyways getting back on track, we donโt see that kind of idealization with Langris. He seems to see her and what she wants more clearly, and loves her enough to accept that she is more interested in Finral and step aside. I feel like they so compatible as well, because neither of them are very passionate people like Finral or Vanessa are. I feel like they would have a beautiful, more subdued kind of love and would be able to fit neatly into each otherโs lives.
Iโve been thinking a lot recently about the time period before Langris was possessed when they were engaged. My heart always breaks when I think about the fact that Langris truly believed Finesse hated him. I think he always felt that she would rather marry Finral, and that he was never able to be really open with her because of this, and even that he resented her for it. I think itโs so compelling that all of this is essentially a misunderstanding, because Finesse does like him, and clearly cares about him and trusts him because even after he went crazy at the royal knights exam she tried to defend and protect him and wasnโt afraid of him (I love Finesse, she has such a beautiful heart). I think that after some character development on Langrisโs end, they would be good for each other.
๐๐ฉท Finral x Vanessa
Vanessa and Finral my darlings!! They have such a sweet canon friendship and seem to support each other so well. For me they make sense and are compelling.
I love how on Vanessaโs end, she is gentle with him when he needs support, but she also isnโt afraid to speak her mind to him in the early seasons when heโs being a sleaze. She keeps him in line, both in the sense that she helps him be a better person and also that she pulls him back to reality when heโs spiraling and feeling insecure. And since I mentioned Finralโs idealization of girls before, I should say that I personally canโt see this happening with Vanessa because theyโve been friends for so long and have both seen each other at their worst. He knows her so well that he couldnโt idealize her if he tried. If he falls in love with her, itโs because he truly sees her and loves her for all her faults. I think they would work so well in a relationship together in a hypothetical future when Finral has decided that going back to House Vaude isnโt the right choice and has gotten over Finesse.
Also on the topic of the future, I see them being incredible parents. They are both passionate and caring people, and I believe they would fully devote themselves to not repeating their parentโs mistakes. It would need to be a slow burn and they would both be very cautious because they value their friendship so much. But I think they make so much sense together!
Thanks again for the ask, I had so much fun with this!!
AAAAAAAAHHHHH HE CAME HOME! HE CAME HOME!๐ญ๐ญ IM BEING BLESSED BY MY SHROUD DARLINGS LATELYโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
He is so cuuuuuuuute!โจ๐ Itโs adorable! AND REALLY BIG TOO!
Looking at the product pictures, I figured they would be small. I just never seen a proper Look-Up figure until now. Obviously, he takes up too much space on my desk.๐
So, I placed him on the shelves above my desk. Made some room and dusted a bit before I sat him down. This was my birthday gift from last year, paid for a few days ago.๐ RIP my wallet, but so happy to have Idy home at last.โค๏ธ
Now, if they would hurry with his full scale figure, that would be great.๐
Forgive me if you've been asked this before, but what is it that really got you so interested in Laito? If you can put your finger on it - I can understand that he has a certain je ne sais quoi.
Hello!๐ thank you for this question first of all! Its so easy but so so hard to answer as well, but yeah he sure does;v;<3 i once did a little essay on this topic on his birthday actually haha where i mentioned all the things i like about him, but..how and why and what exactly is so complicated to find out for myself๐ญ
one important thing about me is, that it takes quite a while for me to develop a crush and strong feelings but if they are there once, they sure are๐ซก and the fact that im asexual!! which makes it funny that my brain chose to focus on him (opposites attract??), but it really just means that im unable to sexualize people, allowing me to view the world and people in another way. As in many kinds of pretty and aesthetics, like art works. And certain things dont hit me that hard like they do with non-asexual people. But i'm absolutely not on the no-touchy side of the spectrum tho, i sure love affection, kiss marks and everything else (even tho i need to know the other one and like them a lot, idk ive never been in a relationship lol) , and i do enjoy his drama cds a lot ๐๐ญ
What i meant to say with that, i didnt get into Laito because i wanted to smash him!๐ there were so many interesting things about him, that got my brain more and more interested and addicted to him and his personality. and hes so so pretty, his eyes are my exact favourite colour and his hair is autumn colours, its so beautiful and i want to braid it hehe.๐ (looks are not enough tho and it took me quite some time.) and before i could even notice it, bam, i think i fell for him, slowly but then pretty hard. (And now its been 8 years agshshjk whaaaat-)
Hmm.. I love dark fantasy and vampire stuff a lot!! Its the twisted, the horror, unexpected, thrilling, esp about him. Its really cool. and finding out just how much there actually is to Laito, one thing after another. Besides his light hearted, funny, dark&twisted and flirty character, there are also his real thoughts, when he gets poetic, emotional and philosophic, and just then how damn cuuute he can be, and how much he actually cares after he stops pushing away emotions, and how much dumb stuff you can do with him (referencing all the funny moments, bonus cds, and silly cds). I would love to go with into cute cafes together, or showing my macaron skills, and idk there were soo many cute and stupid ideas he had that made my heart flutter and laugh a lot ๐คฃ๐คง๐ and so much more!! he makes me happy and all the love that i have stored in me can go to him๐ซถ (i knoww that hes fictional, but hes so well written, with so many sides, and its so nice to have smth or smn around you that/who gives you happiness!!!) but jeez i also looove vampire stuff, but it HAS to be him ๐๐

hi im trying to get into drawing so please excuse my dumbness if this question is very obvious but I've been wondering how artist draw? And I mean it LITERALLY..like you draw on an iPad I would assume or a device but do you use your finger or like a stylus pen? I'm very sorry if this question is stupid I just have been wondering but didn't want to ask bc I would look silly but you seem very kind and patient enough to probably explain it
Hello ๐
No worries at all! ๐ That's a totally valid question to ask ๐ชโจ
There are many different ways how to draw nowadays and lots of different equipment.
There are people who draw on tablets like an iPad, Windows Surface or other brands. Usually people draw on the screen with pens, but I also know an artist who actually works with her finger ๐คฃ๐
So it really depends on the individual's preference.
(It also depends a bit on the software that is available for the specific hardware and/or operating system.)
There are also Tablet PCs that are specifically made for artistic purposes. For instance Wacom makes a lot of those. They come together with a fitting pen or also a stand so you can put them on a desk how you like it. They also come in a lot of different sizes and price categories. They can work as a portable standalone but can also be connected to a PC. Many of them do have a screen that you draw on directly like the Wacom Cintiq series.
But you can also get a drawing tablet that just works as an input device. Which is what I use. They are a lot cheaper than the tablets with screens, but may also take some time to get used to how they work. You just lay it on your desk in front of your keyboard and monitor and connect it to your PC. It just comes with a pen and has a receptive surface that takes in the input from the pen and translates it to your PC monitor. (So essentially you draw on the tablet but you have to look up to your monitor to see what happens ๐)
The one I have is a veeeeeery old Wacom Intuos. ๐๐
I started drawing this way because I first learned how to work with a tablet like this as a graphic designer in Photoshop. One of the reasons why I personally enjoy it is that I still get all the benefits of having a powerful desktop PC with a mouse and keyboard etc. And I appreciate the fact that I am not obscuring my view on the canvas with my own drawing hand ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐๐
(But that is just me and the way I am used to working ๐คฃ๐
So this way might not work for other people ๐ค๐ In return I hate to draw directly on a screen ๐๐ ๐ณ๐ It's just not for me..)
But yeah, ultimately it's all about finding out what you feel comfortable with ๐๐๐๐๐ Everyone has very different and individual needs and there is no right or wrong when it comes to artistic preferences or routines. โโจ๐ฅ
But if you are looking to get started with drawing digitally and don't want to invest into a completely new and expensive thing, I can recommend to see what kind of equipment you already own, like a PC, laptop or an iPad or whatever and then do some research on what kind of software is available for them. Like hardware, there are many different options here in very different price categories (ranging from free to several 100 $ for a license ๐ธ๐ธ) For instance Procreate, Clip Studio Paint, Affinity, Paint Tool Sai, Inkscape, Corel Paint, etc. etc. etc. For choosing the right software I can recommend to just look up some review videos on Youtube etc. They usually give you a good overview on pros and cons, price-performance, features and other stuff ^^
And once you know what kind of drawing software will run on your device you can then choose your input method. So if you own an iPad maybe get a pen and try out Procreate. Or if you have a Laptop, see if you can get a cheap tablet for it and a free software.
You can always start small and see if it is something that you enjoy and that you want to keep on doing and then invest in more expensive or high quality equipment later on โจโจโจโจ
Anyway! ๐
I hope I could help you a little bit with this ๐๐๐
