#Or they're just pals

It's them :)

Something is definitely up with the composition of this but I genuinely cannot be fucked to fix it

Pixel art Commissions

Is this used as an example on the commissions post I made nearly a month ago? Yes. And it's been drawn even longer. My queue is an unbeatable monolith.

this is probably why meta knight moved the conversation to the hallway

based on @das-a-kirby-blog's comic based on my comic. comic inception. colour palettes are from das.

#just to be clear 100% of the colours here are yoinked straight from das' work as an homage!! i did not come up with these #unfortunately the crisp and tasty colour palettes only look their best if you have really banger lineart like das does but ah well #sorry this is the saga that just keeps going but i couldn't shake this when i thought of it. they're so annoying to each other #also a pal said that meta knight and starstruck's relationship is “your dad and the pet he told you not to get” and i think they're right #anyway... someday i'll do the tasks i'm supposed to do but not today!! ha ha! #meta knight #king dedede #starstruck dee #my art #my comics

no but essek's abnormal behaviours in the last arc and especially in episode 140 are my roman empire. which is ironic because aeor is something of a roman empire itself. but in all seriousness, it was the episode that made me realise i love essek and his development so much and it kinda summarised it even before caleb's epilogue.

and i mean the "it's not fair" scene specifically. it's like, an epitome of his whole character progression from a person who put An Objectively Important Goal above all else without hesitation to someone who can't help but care for people around even more than his goal, no matter how big and relevant it is.

the mighty nein - and he alongside them - pretty much saved the world and freed an ancient city from thousand-year-long suffering. they defeated nine extremely powerful menacing entities who managed to stay out of everyone's sight for years and were so close to achieving their goal and dooming exandria in the process. they did the impossible and became heroes and somehow, they survived, even though they had bidden farewells a couple of hours ago because they had already understood what they had been facing. and nevertheless. they made it.

and none of them was celebrating.

mighty nein are basically essek's only friends. he knew them to be very unusual people, to put it lightly, loud and stubborn and completely inescapable once they consider you to be one of their own. and they showed him so much kindness and put so much faith in him, they were here playing the most atrocious music ever and digging clay in his backyard for a spell they invented just to help one of theirs and asking him if he could bring them pastries the day after they found out he was lying to them and had started a war. they were chaotic and weird and sometimes unbearable but most importantly they were carrying so much hope with them all this time - a hope they could end the war, a hope they could stop the angel of irons cult, a hope they could get better, a hope he could get better, and now, finally, that they could save their lost friend.

and that hope shattered, just like that, the moments after they'd already made the impossible. they saved so many souls - and then could not get back just that one.

for essek "my intentions were never good they were important" thelyss it just. shouldn't have mattered. they won. it could have been worse. people die and when they die they rarely come back. they should've been happy everyone else barely made it alive.

but for some reason, mighty nein being so defeated after they saved the world exposed him to that overwhelming feeling of injustice and unfairness. and i mean, there were many things essek considered to be unfair, but when i watched his first appearance and his interactions with mighty nein later on til their reunion in aeor arc, i wouldn't dare to guess that one of the things on that list would be something that personal. and personal not even to him.

the thing is, essek didn't even know who that guy was. why mighty nein cared about him so much. he had an idea, i guess, that he was their friend once, or someone in that body was. it was also a person who wanted to unleash a terrifying horrific aberration onto the material plane. it was a person very dedicated to killing essek and his friends - and they still didn't take any pleasure in fighting him. essek didn't feel strongly about lucien or molly, because he never knew them.

i don't think he mourned his death and failed resurrection. he mourned mighty nein's hope, the one they put in him when they had no reason to, the one they offered yasha in the cathedral and the one they kept after the spell for veth failed and the one they carried til the very end because they wanted it to reach molly. they had saved people with this hope. they had saved nations. they had saved the world. but they ended up feeling like it hadn't even been worth anything.

how desperate would it feel, witnessing people who for some reason always saw good in you when they absolutely shouldn't, who made literal miracles out of nothing, who ended wars and fought gods and tricked the hags and freed cities from horrors beyond anyone's comprehension purely because they thought it was the right thing to do and also loved their friends this much, silently crying over a dead body they couldn't bring back to life? how desperate would it feel to realise that with all your knowledge about time you dedicated your life to and threw away any principles for, you can't undo this? no one can. some things are left to fate alone and this time it wasn't kind to them. no matter how much good they did, they still got slapped in the face.

and it was, i think, such a genuine moment of empathy. like, essek is the character who prefers to put up a facade and act distant and self-composed but this time he just. walked away unable to watch this. the could only say to fjord that it wasn't fair. even when he was caught off guard in nicodranas he was able to explain himself and his motives to an extent even though he was a nervous wreck whose extra important plan went to hell the second the only people he cared about appeared. this time he had nothing to elaborate on. it just wasn't fair. it wasn't fair his friends didn't get what they wanted the most. it wasn't fair he couldn't do anything to make it right.

it is such a sad and beautiful and even cathartic scene because it is about person who started a war that destroyed so many lives - and then met this ragtag group of weirdos who saw a lonely stand-offish guy and said "hey, let's be friends!" and didn't even wait for him to answer. he saw them being serious and calculated and he saw them being ridiculous and extremely stupid, he saw their mistrust to outsiders and their loyalty to each other, he made spells with them and paid a visit to their hot tub, he ate their stale pastries and drank their hot chocolate mixed with whiskey, he was welcomed amongst them and in their wonderful home, both in xhorhas before they even found out what he had done and in the tower when they already knew - and then, he saw them mourning their loss, defeated and helpless, and he, a person who believed there were things more important than whole nations, let alone just one life, couldn't help but share the pain they felt. a pure display of compassion from someone who detached himself from it, who didn't believe he could grow into a better person capable of it again, but became one nonetheless without even realising it

#sorry. i cannot shut up about this. this scene stuck with me the moment i saw it and i just couldn't get it out of my head #i mean. i liked essek well enough. i just got attached to other characters more. but then 'it's not fair' happened and it sealed the deal #it was just. so beautiful. so sincere. so important for a character who just started to learn how to care about people #his reaction wasn't intentional. it didn't change anything. but it showed how humane he had become. how deeply he cared #mighty nein are no joke pal #they're gonna make you feel all these unknown emotions like sympathy and love and affection even when they're incredibly painful #essek experiencing closeness and attachment in all their forms. as something beautiful and something aching. is so important to me #they saved him because they had good hearts! and these good hearts sparked so much joy around them! #but if a good heart grants you an ability to experience joy so profoundly. it makes everything else feel like that #you get it. i hope you get it. anyway e140 did so much psychic damage on me i probably will never recover #in a good way mostly <3 but yeah. yeah. it makes me feel a little insane #the mighty nein #essek thelyss #critical role

This had context but I refuse to tell anyone

#kirby #kots #kirby of the stars #kirby fanart #hoshi no kirby #meta knight #Kirby meme #ok i lied im going to give you the context but this is just between you and me ok #don't tell anyone #we're whispering like it's a sleepover and we don't wanna wake up the parents #this was originally a metadede comic where Queen Ripple came to visit Dreamland #and i like to think meta knight feels insecured about the adventures he wasn't in aka 64 and triple deluxe #so he is kind of moody all the time and magolor makes it worse by poking him about it #dedede kind of wants to be alone with queen Ripple because they're pen pals and they share their possessed stories #and meta knight is so pissed because it's just a side of dedede he doesn't know and he doesn't like it #but he would rather eat his own shoe than actually admit he has emotions #i made like 6 complete pieces around all of this concept but i didn't like them and I'm kind of embarrassed #so i decided to post this without context #and now you know too...

[strandnreyes]

truly been having a breakdown over season one tarlos lately because...

you have this shell of a man with walls a mile high because all love has ever done is hurt him and he wants to be loved so badly but he's scared and when the stranger he's inexplicably drawn to shows him that he cares, TK lays out all his messy pieces and that stranger takes one look at him and thinks 'I'd love you anyway'

and then for Carlos it wasn’t a 'you fixed me', it was a 'I took one look at you and realized I was never broken in the first place' and if that’s not the most romantic thing I’ve ever heard

and it's just two people dealing with their own incredibly heavy pasts who get to cross paths because of those pasts and they're soulmates not in the 'destined to be together' way but the 'I choose to love you each and every day' way because it was as if something shifted into place when they found each other, a moment where everything felt right all of a sudden, and they never want to go a day without it anymore

and now they're getting married <3

#having a true and proper spiral tonight pals! #i just think they're neat #greatest love story of all time i fear #tarlos #911 lone star

Send 💛 to see them with their best friend (NPC or OC).

-- at the water's edge. [feat. @iron-sparrow!]

Yein is Odette's best friend and also her paladin mentor, truly putting the PAL in paladin! The pair are very close, having even lived together while Odette aided in Yein's recovery from [redacted]. There is very little they wouldn't do for each other.

Thank you so much for the ask @raynshyu!! ][ Screenshot Meme ][
