Leap back. Raise arm. Thrust. This motion was practically second nature to Eirika now. Monster after monster fell to her blade, almost like clockwork. Move out of the way quick once they throw their arms back. Counter while they recover.

This was their… well, she had lost count at this point. It was one of their visits to the Tower of Valni. Her and her comrades had made numerous visits to this foul place in order to make sure they were properly prepared for their journey, as the seemingly endless horde of monsters that flooded this tower’s floors made excellent target practice. After everything she’d gone through so far, she didn't expect anything to go her way or according to any sort of plan anymore. Before they headed out for Port Kiris and whatever awaited them in Rausten, she wanted to be ready.

She had to be strong. She needed to. So many people were relying on her. Looking up to her. People who would die if she made a single incorrect choice. She had to make sure nothing like what happened in Renais would ever happen again. She had to protect those she cares about. So it didn’t matter how much her arm hurt. It didn’t matter how her legs ached. It didn’t matter how the endless attacks of claws and spears got closer and closer to hitting her each time she dodged them. She had to keep going. She had t-

“Eirika?” Eirika nearly jumped out of her skin as she swiveled around to face whoever was speaking to her, seeing none I thee than a certain blue-haired pegasus knight giving her a concerned look. “T-Tana!” Eirika quickly stuttered out. “Yes? Can- can I help… you?” “We were… waiting for your word. We took care of all the monsters, but you looked… out of it.” Tana explained.

Right. Right, they had cleared out this floor. Her memory was getting a little… fuzzy. It was mostly just a blur of dodging and fighting. She was fine, though.

“Are you… doing okay, Eiri? You’ve been acting a little off for a few days now. Is something wrong?” Tana questioned.

“I’m fine.” Eirika mumbled, with a quavering voice of someone who was definitively not fine. Tana knitted her brow slightly. “If you say it like that, I’m not going to believe you.” “I… I’ll be fine. You don’t need to worry about me.” Eirika stared, hoping to move on from this conversation “You’re pushing yourself again, aren’t you?” Drat. Tara did always have an uncanny sense of telling when something was bothering Eirika. Eirika simply averted her eyes and stood there in silence for a few seconds, hoping that Tana would just… give up, and go do absolutely anything else. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the kind of person Tana was. Eirika let out a shaky sigh “It’s… been a lot, these past few days. I… I want to make sure we’re ready. I want to be ready. But… I would be lying if I said this was not… taking its toll. But I need t-"

Eirika paused as Tana laid a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

“Listen, Eirika. I understand this is a lot. No one said war was easy. But you don’t have to do everything yourself. You can rely on us. You aren’t alone, alright? We’re all here to help you, and you need to know that, okay?” Eirika nodded. Tana let out a satisfied huff. “Okay. I worry about you sometimes, so just… take care of yourself, alright?” Tana shot Eirika a playful wink. “Besides, you won’t be much help on the battlefield if you run yourself ragged, right?” Eirika cracked a small smile for what felt like the first time in days. “Hehe… right. I’ll keep that in mind. Thank you, Tana.” Tana gave her a quick nod as she headed back to the main group to tell them of their next destination. Eirika finally took a moment to catch her breath, only now noticing how tired she was. Maybe they could call it a day early today. She probably wasn’t the only one who needed a break, and they needed to be prepared for their journey to Rausten tomorrow. A journey they would all walk down together.

have i mentioned that i love your writing style? because i LOVE your writing style.

the characterization is, yet again, on point with this. also, im a sucker for the trope of a longtime friend gazing directly through the "im fine" facade that protagonists seem to love putting up

#i love your writing man #its just damned good #and the void screameth back #beantothemax

had a(nother) nightmare

#deltarune #rouxls kaard #lancer #queen #art #lancer had a bad dream. rouxls comes in to fall asleep in the floor like he always does. queen followed because she needs to #Familiarize Herself with The Rituals and also hey her boy is sad #and then they ALL fell asleep in the floor literally right next to his bed #-- i had tire marks on the bedsheets but they vanished somewhere. damn it #this one isnt old btw i just drew this This Morning HEHEHEHE #its kinda scrungy but thats ok #ok 2 tag ship but not explicitly ship either if ur not into it #i love that half my 'qk' art can very easily be read platonically #i think thats an important aspect of their relationship is that they are good friends and coparents. and THEN they're kissing sometimes #this is hardly the first family cuddle and or sleep pile ive drawn. i never posted my favorite i dont think #i am just all about sleep and cuddle piles. did u know swatchlings love to sleep in piles (headcanon)#if one bird falls asleep in the cafe the odds are very good that one or two more will join them #theres a pile of birds in booth 4 all shoved in there haphazardly and eeping. swatch is coming with pots and pans.

BETTER CALL SAUL!

#this was mostly a test run on procreate dream!#its pretty good but it has a LOT of room for improvement #which i know the developers have been working on since the app is still technically in beta!#but hey i did this in like 3 weeks while working a full time job and also working on other art so #its pretty damn powerful software #good shit if you use procreate already!!#literally the biggest flaws rn are a lack of selection tool an undo/redo button and #and the app itself has a tendency to crash or slow down if theres “too much” going on #like i had to delete all but one of the preloaded animations just so the app would run smoother while i worked #so its still very clearly in its early phase but its good and im excited to see what the developers will do with it #ok review over #better call saul #saul goodman #bcs #jimmy mcgill #breaking bad #animation #brba #video #procreate dreams

In a different world

#vanitas no carte #vanoé #doomed yaoi save me...save me doomed yaoi #play on the opening song + visual sequence + the fact that vanitas could only ever be happy in an alternate universe also #+ the other fun little fact we learn about him from episode one #i have complex feelings about this anime #its pretty damn fucking good #but im a leeeeetle iffy about the way it developed the female characters.....they had potential and i was actually excited to #to see some good solid female characters even the respective romances with their l/i's felt good at the start #not jeanne obv. they fucked up a perfectly good woman and her whole dynamic with v could have gone sooo well without the reall #really forced flirting behaviour.... i liked the more serious relationship they had it made me actually not hate what they had at the start #but yknow. whatever. sorry about going off about another ship on this but im just....i love jeanne a lot. i wish they didnt do her so dirty #my girl deserves better than this asshole #you want white/black dynamics??? let her get married to domi and then we can talk #i enjoy this show and i enjoy vanoe a lot #very yuriyaoi if you ask me #my art

just saw someone say Rick Riordan making a TV show is just as bad as anything JKR has done. BFFR you're comparing Rick Riordan trying to make his world more inclusive, changing some parts because of money/time constraints, or just making changes cus he thinks they're needed, to JKR being a terrible person!

#and not to say Ricks work is perfect. ill be the firat to tell you his mistakes. his aspec rep is shit. his minorities rep has problems #he has general time line problems. im not says hes perfect but he tried from a good place #jkr named a character ChoChang. her Scottish character blow stuff up and tried to make alcohol. named a black character Shackelbolt #like damn get over yourself.#percy jackson #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson and the olympians #percy series #pjo series #pjo #pjo tv show #pjo tv series #pjo tv adaptation #if you wanna say shit about Rick ok. but be correct about it #how is he just as bad as jkr for not using the book he made in the early 2000s an exact script for the TV show being released in 2024?#and they yall had the audacity to be pissed when he didn't put a song about sex thats literally says `fuck her face° in the background of #LITERAL 12 YEAR OLDS in a place with memory altering properties..... thats whats you wanted. children getting high to a song about sex.#°oH bUt iN tHe mOvIe tHaT i WaTcHeD wHeN i waS tWeLvE' where the actors where like what 18? and weren't 12? that one? 🙄#some of you are getting on my nerves. yes the show's pacing is eh really thats a reason to curisfy Rick Riordan? thats what you're deciding #this is the line? a tv show thats on its first season and is more accurate then the movies that came out?#good to know

Zoro and Sanji are each other's confidants because despite constantly saying they can't stand each other, they trust the other the most when it comes to stuff they know for sure the rest of the crew won't like. They're each other's "nothing happened" moments. Sanji knows about Thriller Bark. Zoro knows about Wano. Sanji knows about all the burden Zoro has to carry. Zoro literally has Sanji's life on his hands. They trust each other with the things they can't tell their captain. They're his wings so they have to rely on each other to keep the crew from falling. There's just something about the unspoken trust and bond these two have that makes me go insane.

#not even that big on zosan but damn they have something very deep going on #the passion and devotion they share for their captain and the trust they have on each other #with their lives istg #sanji literally told zoro to kill him if he ever lost his mind like what the actual fuck was that??? he trusts him with his life i am sobbi #and it doesn't even have to be romantic their bond is just so good on its own in canon #but yeah make it romantic i love romance #one piece #black leg sanji #roronoa zoro #zosan

Shoutout to Magic for taking "Watson equivalent who was a former assassin of some kind" and ascending it to "Watson equivalent who is still an active assassin, not even on the side, like being a detective's assistant is their side job"

Proft: "He's covered his tracks well. He's definitely our culprit, but with all the physical evidence destroyed we'll never be able to prove it to the courts." Etrata: "...So like, does that mean I'm fine to... you know..." Proft: *sighs* "...Just please tell me you're being paid by someone else to do it." Etrata: "Oh they gave me the contract like halfway through the investigation. I was just waiting to see if we could get him in custody first."

#magic the gathering #etrata #alquist proft #Etrata got some really good character writing this set god damn #she went from being effectively a background character to having some of the best character dynamics in ravnica #hopefully when we inevitably come back to ravnica we can see her and proft still working together #proft also was surprisingly entertaining for someone who kinda came out of nowhere #I was sus of him the whole set but its actually funnier if he's just an innocent detective character who just ends up in these situations
