Doodles of Mine

Fandom: My Hero Academia

Characters: Tomura Shigaraki/Tenko Shimura

Relationship: Shigaraki x Reader

Warnings: Just soft shiggy 🥺

*My asks and requests are open! Feel free to send me a prompt*

Summary: You never knew that Shigaraki doodles in his spare time.

You never knew that Shigaraki liked to draw. In fact, you’re absolutely certain you weren’t supposed to know that he liked to.

You had seen his doodles in passing when you left the grocery bag of new clothes on his bed earlier that week. Compress and you needed to make a run for new apparel after a rather risky side quest your leader and his goons went on. Toga’s favroite sweater came back littered with blood and rips too big for your seamstress skills to cover up. It wasn’t like you weren’t used to removing blood stains, but the tears in the fabric were too large to repair. The same was said for the rest of the group.

You knew Shigaraki fairly well at this point. The league was your family now, and Tomura and you had grown fairly close within the nine months you’ve been at the hideout. He often took comfort in your companionship most nights. Whether it was you silently scrolling on your phone while he played his favorite MMO, or if it was eating your home cooked meals and watching YouTube together. Needless to say, Shigaraki let down his guard for you. And only you.

As you gently set the bag of clothes down onto his bed, you noticed a stack of papers litering over his keyboard. It wasn’t unusual that Shigaraki had scattered papers on his desk, but never on his PC set up. Like the curious cat you were, you pondered over to the desk and peeked over his gaming chair. They were....doodles? Sure, there were some documents and coordinates littered in the mix, but most of the stack consisted of little sketches and drawings.

They weren’t professional by any means, but gods were they cute! Little sketches of miscellaneous things littered the papers. One wrinkled page held a small scene of aliens. They were circled around a spaceship, some with little mini blasters and others with helmets on. The next page you shuffled through had Minecraft mobs drawn lazily across it. There was mostly creepers, his favorite mob, littered with a blaze and what looked to be a squid. It made you chuckle to yourself.

You were about to retreat from his room when you noticed another page peeking out towards the bottom of the pile. After looking around the room to ensure no one would catch you, you gently tugged the sheet from the bottom. Your breath caught in your throat from the surprise of seeing the sketch. It was still a doodle, no major details really, but it pulled at your heart nonetheless. It was a little girl, and a dog. You were surprised to recognize the breed-a corgi. You knew Shigaraki liked dogs, he had about ten of them on your shared Minecraft world. But it wasn’t the dog that caught you, it was the little girl. She seemed so special, so innocent, and there were flowers doodled here and there on the page. You shouldn’t be seeing this, it felt wrong. Quietly, you shoved the paper under the stack where you had found it, and tiptoed from his room.

That drawing had touched you for the rest of the week. You found yourself thinking about it when you weren’t busy. Sitting at the bar, listening to Spinner and Toga argue, or wordlessly shuffling to the kitchen for your off brand morning coffee.

You had offered to bring your switch into Shigaraki’s room that night after pizza. The two of you were planning on raiding the nether fortress in your shared Minecraft world. You didn’t even bother knocking when you went to visit him around 10:30 that night. You never did, and he never seemed to mind either. But you paused with your console when you noticed he was hunched over his gaming chair with a hand delicately wrapped around a pencil.

“Heya Shiggy, what’cha doin?” You called out above the idle gaming music playing on his paused monitor.

“Hrm” He grunted wordlessly while his left leg bounced below his desk in a steady rhythm.

You took that as an invitation to shut the door and shuffle over to him. Once you set your switch down on an empty part of his desk, you looked over the back of his desk chair curiously. Like before, he was doodling. It was a cute little face of a monster. Nothing identifyable, just something he could do to pass the time.

You giggled at the horns and sharp teeth he gave it, along with menacing claws and grizzly hair.

“It’s so cute” you hummed and he grunted once more.

The two of you had begun playing on your shared world. You weren’t sure how many hours had passed but the rest of the house seemed quiet. You couldn’t hear the creaking of footsteps or rumbling of voices throughout the base anymore. The two of you had already left the Nether and started building in your shared base. You were working on finishing the barn for your horses and cattle, while Shigaraki was terraforming the land outside. It was quiet, but neither of you ever minded that. You were both content with keeping each other company. Even if that meant it was silent.

“I had a sister once, y’know.” He spoke out over the soft piano in the background of the game. You and your avatar paused, and the grip on your console seemed to loosen ever so slightly. Shigaraki never mentioned his past, or eluded to the fact that he had a family. You figured they were out of the picture, or even dead.

“Yeah?” You asked breathlessly.

He nodded in return.

You spared a moment of your shock to glance at him. Father had been long since removed from his face, and he stared emptily at his screen. You wondered what was going through that head of his.

“What was she like?” You asked.

Shigaraki’s controller fell into his lap, and he blinked. Once. Twice.

“I don’t really remember, actually. She...” He paused. “She was shorter than me. She had pretty eyes, I think. I can’t remember her name. But she was good. Yeah.” He replied. You didn’t think it was your place to say anything. And he probably wouldn’t want you to either. So you simply looked at him. His eyelashes fluttered momentarily and his eyes were pinned to the floor now. No doubt lost in thought. He was a strange, broken man, but he allowed himself to open up around you. Even if it wasn’t much, you cherished the moments that he did allow himself to be vulnerable in.

Another week had passed since that day he spoke of his sister to you. It too, had played in your head on repeat. He was so soft in moments like those, it made you want to hug him, and let his fading memories pour out to you. But you knew he would only come to you when he was ready to. He was like a cat in that way. He needed his space, and if you respected it, the reward was worth the wait.

This time, after a crappy order of takeout curry, the two of you were playing Smash Brothers on your Switch. You liked bringing your handheld into his room because it meant the two of you could play games together in the same space. Sure, you both played more intense games on your respective PCs, but that meant you both had to stay in your own rooms. Shigaraki never minded your company, and you cherished his. So it worked out for the both of you.

You noticed by chance out of the corner of your eye, more crumbled up papers at his desk. Shigaraki was involved with a NPC match, while you silently watched. It was more of a warmup match than anything, but you knew Shigaraki would kick your ass when you finally decided to play against each other. However, once his round was finished, you decided to take a chance and speak up.

“What’re these?” Curiosity filled your tone as you pointed to the crinkled papers. Tomura glanced at you and then the pile of loose paper littering his desk.

“Doodles.” He hummed and set his switch down to the left of his keyboard. Your eyes lit up with excitement as he picked up one of the warn out papers in his hand. “I do it when I’m bored or whatever.” He groused out and flattened the paper out.

Your eyes noticed the flowers first. They were scattered here and there, some scratched out, some fading from eraser marks. Then, in the middle, that little girl again. She looked the same, all cartoony and sketchy. But she still pulled on something buried in your chest.

“She liked flowers. I remember that.” He said when your eyes curiously looked to him. You took in a sharp breath at the softness gazing back at you. A look you rarely ever got to see with his aloof personality. He looked away and back towards his drawing. It took a moment before he spoke again. “That’s what I remember the most. She was always picking flowers.”

ok folks you wanna know why it’s important to rb art you like??

recently i posted art of king from toh (i know this is the second time i’ve posted abt it just shhh)- just two simple doodles, one as a warmup, and one which i had been wanting to draw for a while. i thought “fuck it” and put those doodles in the main tags

that post got popular, for my art! abt six ppl had reblogged it and it was up to 49 notes- i didn’t even have to self-rb! i was very happy and went to bed feeling validated.

now, while i was asleep, someone rbed it and, in their tags, said it reminded them of their mutual. said mutual rbed that and went, in tags, “it is like me!!!” cute interaction btw. now, after those two inconspicuous little rbs, the post nearly doubled in notes. last i checked, it hit 81 notes, a lot for my art!! now i feel even happier about it!! and i wanna draw even more!!

rbs are /so/ so good for an artist; same for authors, i just don’t have any personal experiences with that. anyways, rbs bring art/writing to a bunch of new eyes, which helps the creator get seen, and also spurs on more work in the future! yes, we artists work mainly for ourselves, but having that positive reinforcement, the “you’re doing great!”- it helps much more than you’d think.

my point is if you see art or writing you really like, take a second to rb it! we love it!! (we’ll really love it if you talk about it in the tags but you don’t gotta)- you may even be responsible for us working even harder!! it takes like 2 seconds and it helps more than you think. thanks for your time reading this incoherent post <3

#don’t ask why i keep posting abt the doodle getting notes. i’m excited about it #it’s been a long time since art of mine got over 10 notes so seeing like. 80. makes my heart go boom

Gonna be getting back into the swing of things soon, so I figured a warmup doodle would help me transition back into my workflow would be good. And what better subject than babies!

Have some babu Link and Linkle as well as a bonus Link as a puppy. I really love the style of Wind Waker so I thought it’d be a cute homage to the game if the twins sorta-kinda mimicked that look as babies. I always thought it was cute how much Toon!Link looked like a kitten. xD

Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut yhuh! Enjoy the babu and the soft fluffiness uwu

They find your little notes (Exo Reaction)

Baekhyun

While rummaging through his bag for his clothes, he saw something peculiar. Something that wasn’t there when he’d packed it. He saw a small container of tteokbokki with a note attached to it. He picked it up and opened it. It read, “I know you don’t like hot foods, but this can really spice up your life.” There was a winky face drawn next to it.

Baekhyun gulps as he looks to the tteokbokki. ‘For Y/N.’ He thought to himself as he opened the container and took one out. He took a minimal bite, expecting his taste buds to sear in pain. Although that didn’t happen. In fact, they were quite mild. He looked at the note in confusion, turning it around. “Sike, I know you’re too sensitive to eat anything spicy. Enjoy!” It said with a kissy face.

He couldn’t help but laugh at this little prank. He knew only you’d do something like this.

D.O.

Kyungsoo was ready for the next few hours of practice but was already panting from the warmup. He’d decided to grab some water for himself. However, while he was drinking, he saw something weird through the water. It looked like something was written on the inside of the wrapper of the water bottle. Pulling the wrapper off, he read the little note. It said, “I see you’re thirsty, but sadly I can’t be there to quench it. So, drink up!”

He noticed a little tiny drawing that looked like a chibi version of you. He blushed at how cute and creative you could be. He found this super adorable.

Chen

You were always asleep when he left and he never woke you. He didn’t want to disturb you. So it came as a surprise when he found a note in his practice bag. He opened it and saw a drawing of a rose. The words read, “Roses are red, but sometimes they’re thorny. When you’re gone all day, I get really...” it trailed off and he turned to the back of the card, blushing at what he anticipated it to say. He was taken aback when he read it.

“...Corny. I know what you were thinking, shame on you. You should get back to practice instead of thinking dirty thoughts.” He laughed loudly and put the letter away. He made a mental note to get payback when he got home.

Sehun

Sehun was one of the more dedicated dancers in the groups. He’d practice so much that, sometimes, he wouldn’t get time to spend with you. Whenever you would find him, he’d be practicing and it would be close to impossible to stop him. So you decided to give him a little gift, to show him how you felt.

He was in the bathroom at the studio, changing into his practice clothes, when he noticed something at the bottom of his bag. It was a lollipop with a note tied to it. “I know you love lollipops, I also know you’re not supposed to eat sweets. You can’t have your lollipop if I can’t have mine.” It said. There was a little red devil doodled on the side. He laughed at your actions of revenge and put the candy back.

Suho

You’d often see Junmyeon looking very stressed. Being the leader of Exo, he had most of the spotlight. He was their example and he had to be responsible. Whenever one of the members have a problem, they go to him for help and he can never say no. You love that he has such a good heart and he loves to help others, but he needed to think of himself every once and a while. Whenever you would see him in a super stressed mood, you would hide a container of his favorite sushi and a motivational quote in his bag.

It would always make his day. Being someone who has to basically take care of his group, it felt nice for him to be cared for and thought of. He loved how you would always be there to relieve him of any stresses he had.

Kai

(Look at dis shy baby)

It was Jongin’s first time back at practice ever since he’d injured his ankle. He’d been so upset that he couldn’t dance and you saw his eyes burn with a passion to move. He was very limited, but once that cast came off, he was the happiest guy in the world. He proudly walked into the practice room and reached into his bag.

He pulled out his shoes and found a folded piece of paper inside. He unfolded it and read it. “Break a leg, Jongin-ah! Although this time, just go along with the metaphor, not everything needs to be taken seriously. Hehe~” He smiles at this, giggling at your joke. He had a feeling this was coming, you’d never pass up a joke like that.

Xiumin

Lately, Minseok has been getting some criticism about his weight and was feeling a bit insecure. He was such a people pleaser that he’d sacrifice his own happiness for theirs. It broke your heart to see him bending over backward for them. You wanted him to feel comfortable inside his own body and not change for anyone but himself. He was perfect the way he was and you wanted him to know that.

As he arrived at the studio, he received a text from you. “Hai, Min-min! I don’t know if you’re practicing right now and I know they take your phones during practice, but hopefully, you get this before then. I know you are working hard to lose weight and whatnot, but I want you to know that you can’t let those fans destroy you. I love your spirit and I don’t want it to be broken. Your heart is golden and you can’t let a few hate comments dim it. I love you so much, so don’t be too hard on yourself, I hate seeing you upset. Have a good day and be safe, Min-min!❤️”

He couldn’t help but blush at this, his heart fluttered. Your words gave him a happiness he didn’t know he could have and it showed.

Chanyeol

Most people thought of Chanyeol as intimidating and mature. They didn’t know the real Park Chanyeol. In reality, he was a giant teddy bear. He’d get shy it the tiniest things and always gets flustered. You found it cute. He was the polar opposite of what people would expect. That’s why you’d always try to find new ways to make him blush. He was tearing through his bag, looking for his other sock when a note fell out.

“So I was at home the other day and I walked past a pile of clothes, I immediately thought, ‘don’t worry laundry, nobodies doing me, either.’ I figure we should change that tonight.” It read. Chanyeol gave his usual reaction. He couldn’t stop thinking about that note all through practice and even got scolded. He didn’t care, though. He knew he was in for a treat tonight.

Lay

Yixing was such a goofball, but he was also a sweetheart. He would always leave you cute gifts and notes around the house for you to find. You loved them, but you weren’t really one to do things like that in return. That’s why it came to him as a surprise when he’d found one in the front pocket of his bag. He picked it up and read it.

“Stop being so freaking attractive. I have work to do but instead, I’m over here daydreaming about you. Stop distracting me.” His laughs were heard throughout the studio and he quickly showed the others.

JULIE BENBASSAT

It is hard to believe Julie Benbassat is just a sophomore student at RISD. Benbassat’s work is sophisticated beyond her years, and we expect she will be dominating the illustration world in no time.

“I was lucky that a lot of people supported my decision to go to art school (my parents, my teachers, my friends and acquaintances), so I only got a little taste of the obnoxious people who thought all artists starved.”

Muse’s Milk: Tell us your story.

Julie Benbassat: To put it bluntly, I was raised by a really cute Jewish, elderly white couple, both being nearly 50 when they adopted me from China. Since I was only a baby when I was adopted, I didn't retain any of the culture or customs from China. To avoid becoming culturally illiterate, my parents tried taking me to Chinese school, reading me Chinese stories and moving us to a diverse area in New Jersey. As a kid I had my parents teaching me the fundamentals of Judaism and folk music while my Chinese American friends and their families helped me reconnect with my birth country.

I think this combination had a lasting impression on me. I see it in my work from time to time (fusing Asian aesthetics with Jewish and American thought processes).

In terms of education, I went to a good public school system. My high school art program was pretty good in comparison to most of the other schools around us. I was lucky that a lot of people supported my decision to go to art school (my parents, my teachers, my friends and acquaintances), so I only got a little taste of the obnoxious people who thought all artists starved.

MM: Can you speak about your illustration process? How you approach personal assignments vs. client work?

JB: My process has been constantly changing, and continues to change as I go further into my college years. I've noticed I really need to make a lot of sketches before I make a final product, whether it be client work or personal work. This isn't necessarily because I need a ton of reference shots, but rather because it serves as a warmup to stretch my thinking and creative muscles. Client work actually comes easier because the client has a vision, so I can ask them what they want. Personal work is harder but more enjoyable when the finished product is done. Normally a personal piece takes longer than a client piece (depending on the client's project though) just because I end up sketching so much. I’m trying to get faster at this, and college has really helped me speed up, so I can only wonder what my process will be like in senior year.

MM: What are you passionate about right now, and why?

JB: Throughout my life I've been passionate about girl power and nature in general. This probably has to do with my upbringing. My Mom and Dad are both solid feminists and nature lovers. I try to work these interests into my art, though I'm constantly learning more about each respective topic. Some mornings I find myself just going out to the local plants and sketching them cause they're so magical, or reading about famous women in history on free days. Sorry if I sound like a super feminist plant nerd. And shockingly, I'm very passionate about tea, as it is my life source. I decided to do a daily drawing challenge in 2015, where I made a tea doodle (teadle) everyday.

MM: Is there anything you want the audience to know about you?

JB: I think I've spilled my life story here at this point. I do think it is important to mention that I'm but a mere sophomore at RISD, so I am constantly changing and evolving with no set style and I am in no rush to find it.

Art Stream: All of the cute + Future stuff

So I had an art stream yesterday outta the blue and despite going into it without much plans we got some good mateiral out of it.. More info down below!

So as a warmup sketch, I finished Meryl and August and during the lets play this happened. I dont know why I thought it was that funny but it was. Next I drew @bringmemisery since she hasnt been really feeling well lately so blam! Doodle for her!

I finally got around to making a ‘meet the mun’ picture people have been asking for so, here we go! Short, sweet and to the point.

Next up, me and Lubo have been talking about ‘Innocent World’ where the concept is World and Vanya get together during chapter zero and it’s actually really cute. Vanya basically has to teach him everything about intimacy since World doesn’t know human ways and maaan world loves it a lot. the second picture is, well, reve almost murdered World by locking him in his cabin and lighting it on fire. Luckily in this ending he got out, burned and with a broken arm but he lived. Vanyas both relieved and worried so much.

After that i got asked if i ever drew on dark backgrounds, so I decided to. I drew a chamomile, but the question is, whose blood is it? .. Well it depends on which ending you get.

Next is sorta a joke we had of those ‘lemme smash’ videos, but with Vanya as Ron tryin to hook up with Mundi in the past. There’s so many variations and I love them all.

THIS ONE WAS A REQUEST that I turned into a meme. For those who know me I like to use this meme a lot, so when i got a request to draw jellbean the very weird wolf, I just had to

Got another request of Ada @cascadiandreams and Mundi @fakeashenwings to be hanging out together. When i asked what kinda things she liked to do, she apparently likes to put boots on dogs so, poor mutes gonna get that treatment.

But in another try at it to be more serious, I had Mundi and Ada having a lil tea party, though if she doesn’t like tea he’d probably be serving hot chocolate instead. Little sandwiches and cookies to go with it too, and a new dress he sewed just for her. Tea time with Grandma, yaaay.

Last one here we got is the new title screen for Hetarella. I really wanna try to at least finish this one this year, and I want to do the art myself! I’m gonna be kinda nervous since it’s not too professional but, I wanna do my best!! That and it’s cheaper. I’m kinda really proud how it turned out.
