When he thinks back on how he had envisioned this moment, the image conjured would be starkly different. Less swimming amidst a the current of cityfolk and rather just the two of them in a desolate field, parting ways like protagonists from the countless manga they've read together. Even now, he can faintly recall the sardonic chuckle vibrating against his shoulder as Satoru mocks the predictable plot twist and flips the page...

But that's not who they are anymore. Those memories live in a place that has been out of Suguru's reach for over a year now. And for the first time he sees some hope in the distance — for the first time there's some color to his cheeks, a blinding light at the end of a strenuous sewage pipe that he's been addling in way too long.

We can fix it, together.

Satoru's familiar cadence is naught but an echo of the past. The younger shaman quirks a brow, jaw clenching upon the words. Over the tessellating heads of people brushing past them, their gazes meet; dim, dark blues like the the ocean in distress meet steel.

❝ There is nothing to fix. ❞ Suguru declares, and his hands remain idle. Loose, in juxtaposition with his friend's tightening grip. ❝ I killed those people. And I would do it again. I've made my choice for how I want to live my life. ❞ If some passerby happened to hear it over their headphones, it didn't matter. And their accidental nudges did not frustrate him anymore. Maybe it wasn't what he'd thought it would be — but in Suguru's mind it was still just the two of them in that moment.

Don't you dare walk away from me !

Lips nurse a reserved smirk; and then he turns. Over his shoulder, he can feel the sheer energy radiating from the Six Eyes' intention to cast it — and of course, Suguru has listened idly to enough of his best friend's ramblings during this last year to know what 'it' is. The Hollow Purple technique. If Gojo were to unleash that here, it would kill him instantaneously, but also...

— it would eviscerate every single one of those filthy monkeys.

And if Suguru pushes him enough; if he pushes the right button and shoves him over the proverbial line, there will be no going back. If he uses the right words that he possesses, if he sticks his finger in the wounds his best friend has entrusted him with ( 'when have you made a choice for yourself, Satoru?', 'when have you ever questioned this identity that was forced upon you?' ) the disgusting non-shamans surrounding them will be naught more than a pool of debris and blood and the mere thought of it has Suguru's fingers twitch.

I don't know what I'll do.

He freezes. The hair on his nape stands on edge, eyes fixed on the floor, barely moved when some passerby pushes past him. It's not the words; it's the quality in Satoru's voice that speaks of true hurt. And in that moment Suguru is reminded of this eeriely familiar feeling — the voice he has not heard for so long in his head, because he'd lost his reasons somewhere along his decline.

Beat, heart. Keep beating.

With mom and dad it had been different. Try as he might he could no longer feel sympathy for the people who brought him into this world to suffer for their benefit. When he sat at the dinner table that night only to be bombarded with the same clueless questions they'd reverberate every time he went back home during school breaks ( 'so how's school?', 'are you getting good grades?', 'any girlfriends yet?' ) all he could feel was disdain. It was easy to justify it in his head — he had to be fair. He had to be absolute. All of them had to be purged, or they would be standing on a pile of their friend's corpses.

But to hurt Satoru Gojo? To use Satoru Gojo for his ends in such a way? And exploit him in a moment of weakness, even if it would satisfy Suguru's personal goals — His best friend?

...

❝ You'll be fine. ❞ He turns, abruptly, the smile already hoisted on his features as if the corners of his lips are forcibly held up by a string. And it's soft and reassuring and all the things he knows Satoru needs in that moment — because someone popped his little bubble and now the prodigal one has to face all things his Limitless keeps at bay. A shield can protect you from what the world throws at you. Not from what's inside you. He's been trying to tell him that for the last year; and Satoru didn't listen. Now it's too late, but he can't find it in himself to be angry. When his eye cracks open and steals a glimpse of his friend's panicked expression, all he can do is mellow.

❝ Besides, we'll see each other again, right? Sooner or later. ❞

I'll be saving myself for you, Satoru. What awaits me at my end, whenever that moment comes... you are the person I want there with me.

He walked away.

Resin First Attempts

Ohhhh, where do I even start~?

In one of my previous posts, I said as soon as I get enough things, I will go out in the garage and start tinkering around even if it's 11pm, midnight, or 1am- didn't I? Yeah, well, that happened, Lol 😅. I was outside in the garage until 2:30am and probably didn't make it to bed until around 3:15am-ish. Details. (I forget when I started, uh, 6pm?)

Second day I went out there earlier but I was probably still out there for about 8-hours? Time can fly by quick this craft! And you don't even notice it. Holy geez.

The first night taking so long, made sense. I was trying to organize things, pull out tools for the first time. Basically get acquainted with my 'Mise en place' (totally a cooking phrase but whatever, I'm using it here).

I've only made 6 bezels so far, and used some of my extra resin in some earring molds (that I haven't added backings to yet) but...! Right now I'm just toying around with techniques and trying to get the hang of things. I think I even already found a new one? I've watched so many resin videos and I've yet to see anyone do this thing 🤔

Anyhow. Here are my very first bezels 😊

Some of these pictures were taken on a cloudy day and some were not... I didn't edit the lighting in photoshop either. And on top of that- I took some pictures next to my backdoor, some in my bedroom, and some in my garage where I've been making these. I did this intentionally to show the lighting variations of the resin, coloring, mica powder, glitters, etc etc.

That potion bottle was my very FIRST one. I'm likely going to keep that one forever as a memento. I had zero intention at the start to add the hearts but had a lightbulb 💡 moment.

Dr. Stone inspiration kicked in and I instantly thought of Senku's love potion at the start of the anime 🤣. In hindsight I should have used the round potion bottle but the love potion idea was literally an afterthought - still came out cute as heck, imo.

If you're wondering about the snowflake ones when it's the beginning of Spring- I was trying really hard to get a Captain Hitsugaya (Bleach) themed bezel but it just wasn't happening for me 🫠

This purple one is a prime example of how different lightings can make a bezel look different. It has me questioning how I want to post this on Etsy in the future 🤔. Many pictures I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️

I wanted something quite literally like a teardrop....? This one has the smallest imperfection in the world that I can see at the weirdest angle if I look at it really hard, LOL. I know it's stupid, but I'm OCD like that. Uhhh... I probably need a better light in the garage so I can avoid this in the future. I think I didn't see a bubble before curing or something. Not 100% sure.

This one has an aurora+pearl mix type mica and aurora glitter so it's constantly shifting colors in the sunlight. It also has intentional ombre, though it's not as dramatic as I wanted. Yeah... definitely a trial and error learning process going on here, lol. I still very much like how it came out. I added the shining star at the bottom to symbolize 'a light in the darkness'.

Couple last shots of some already seen ones- garage shot + bedroom shot. Just to show varying lighting.

Don't worry, I'm not going to do this every time (I think). Maybe 1-2. One near sunlight and one against a white backdrop that I'll setup somewhere. Seems more professional that way, less messy, and maybe my posts won't be a novel long each time 🙃

>>>

Oh let me add a couple somethings!

🔹 I'm still working on getting my Etsy up. I think I just need a banner and an icon? Smol simple things really. There might be more but I think that's it. Aside from me learning how to actually post a listing. I probably won't start selling anything until I get better at this though and feel confident with it. ALSO, I still haven't received the packaging supplies I ordered (bubble mailers). Who knows when I'll get that.

🔹 Yes, those are a bunch of octopus plushies in the background of my pictures. Be prepared to see them a lot, and a lot more other octopuses in my pictures. They are everywhere. Octos are friends in this house 🐙💓
