A cute line-less illustration of Ichiji with Alolan Vulpix and Sanji with Kantonian Vulpix to bookend 2023 on. This piece was inspired by a few theory/speculation ideas of Ichiji main move sparking valkryie having a connection to northern lights and sparking figure being sparking figar.

Which made me think of Alolan Vulpix and thought it would be a nice fit for Ichiji and again I love me a good parallel with Sanji having the Kantonian Vulpix. Sanji is fire while Ichiji is light/maybe ice or at least freeze.

Stavos if u wanna for pride sketches?

drew very rough version of this one before seeing almost identical artwork of @sare11aa11eras... I liked the idea of stannis kissing davos' shortened hand too much, so i still finished it. i'm sorry 😞 i guess these two evoke very powerful hand kissing imagery in people's minds

something about romantic tongue cutting threats idk i don't get gay people 😁

thank you for your request it was very fun for me!!

#asoiaf #a song of ice and fire #asos #a storm of swords #valyrian scrolls #stannis baratheon #davos seaworth #stavos #insert hot yaoi base #why did i draw it like that #oh well... <3 #drawing davos turned out to be surprisingly hard #i feel like his emotions on the first one are hard to interpret #main thing is that he is reaching for his finger bones that are not there anymore #working on the rest of your requests #my art #workplace yaoi #valid tag

Not gonna get into danganronpa another spoilers because this whole scene is something else that I’m still processing but I absolutely love this line. Like to bring up milgram I think this is an idea which can reflect on lots of the characters as well. The idea of basing your entire existence off of a certain thing/person/ideology and then for something to happen that completely destroys that. Your entire person has been stripped away and just what’s left? You can’t comprehend your own existence or meaning without that specific attachment and you start to question all of your actions based off that…

I can only really think of John, Kotoko, and Es here (and possibly Amane and Mikoto to an extent). And John bases his life off of Mikoto, Kotoko upholding justice, and Es being the warden.

John’s idea of his whole existence and reason for being is Mikoto. It’s the only reason he believes he exists and if he were to fulfill his role he’d “disappear” as he would be completely worthless without him. John tries to repress and ignore his humanity and reduce himself as a tool to protect Mikoto and that’s all he can see himself as. But now Mikoto’s starting to not deny his existence and feels pure hatred for everything about him. And what will happen to John, when the person he’s dedicated his entire life to and desperately wants praise from, denies his existence? What will he be but some worthless existence that is only a burden, to him.

Kotoko. An ideology of upholding justice and punishing evil that has completely overtaken her. She has pushed herself into a role of a “fang” for justice, protecting the weak and persecuting evil. But even so matter how much she tries, she knows her goals are unreachable. She denies relationships and attachments to other people based on this ideology. Kotoko admits that she does feel attachment to the prisoners, but has to deny them in order to fulfill the role as a tool. And believes that pain and violence is necessary to achieving a greater good. Trying to deny any regret because wouldn’t it be easier to believe you’re entirely in the right? She latched onto Es, believing them to be similar as the warden who carries out judgement on wether the prisoners are forgivable or not. But now, Es has denied her whole ideology, her whole existence due to the pain she’s caused. Kotoko wants to believe that what she did was right and that Es, another enforcer of justice would accept her, because that’s how it is.

And Es… they’re the warden of the prison. There’s nothing more to them than that they believe. Es has no memories of their identity or past before Milgram and immediately latched onto the identity given to them, of being the guard. Es took this role as their entire identity, an extension of the milgram system in order to interrogate and judge prisoners. I think Muu put this best.

“Warden-san, we call you "warden" because that's what you are, right? And I was assigned the role of prisoner, but that doesn't mean I'm now nothing but a prisoner at heart, too. After all, I'm still me.”

Es has an unstable sense of identity, to the point they latched on to the first thing they were given in order to give themselves a purpose and a meaning for existence. And Kotoko calling them “imperfect caused them to question their identity. But as the story progresses Es will probably begin to learn about the audiences control and the truth behind what they assumed to be their verdicts. That their will never was 100% their own. Who knows what Es’ past was, but eventually they’ll likely have to tackle it and their whole identity, the warden, the arms of milgram, is gone.

gonna think about Mikoto and Amane here as well. Mikoto, although may not seem to be as first, focuses his entire identity around other people. He’s the friendly sociable guy who’s easy to chat with. But that’s all he believes he should be, I guess. As perhaps this mindset is upheld by an inherent fear of other people rejecting him, so he focuses all his attention and identity on being a social person. He’s never truly friends with people, as perhaps that would be “too close” and open up the possibility for danger. He doesn’t completely deny his identity like the others, but he molds and shapes it in a way that is acceptable to others. He likes what everyone else likes and does what everyone else does so the fear of being rejected for being different won’t hurt him. But now he’s stopped denying John’s existence and his DID, believing himself to be crazy, and to be completely rejected from other people, his entire sense of identity to an extent. And especially with John scaring other people off with the mindset that will help Mikoto, he has now been completely distanced from everyone else and now has to come to terms with himself, but not the ideal persona he put on to be acceptable to other people.

Amane is a more different case as she in a way has rejected that idea, but not completely. Growing up in a cult it’s very likely that she was always conditioned that she was just a servant for god. That all the good things she did were actually god blessing her and all the bad things a fault of her humanity, herself as a person. She is in a unstable relationship with the whole submitting her personhood to her religion, as she sacrificed her ideologies in order to help a cat. But at the core, that wasn’t about herself and her identity, rather a focus on the cat’s life. Amane’s murder was her will. Rejecting everything and fighting for her life in direct opposition to what she has been taught her entire life and how her identity should be, a rejection of that and a glance into “herself”. But once again, this murder wasn’t entirely self motivated. She’s still broken enough that she can’t fully grasp herself as a person besides god and religion. And a large cause of her murder was out of the death of the cat, rather than simply protecting herself. Amane still slips back into the belief that her personhood is entirely dedicated to god. As she tried to convince herself and Es that the only reason she killed is because they deserved religious punishment and she is in the right for carrying out god’s will, once again denying her personal reason for doing so. Reducing herself to “we” on behalf of her religion, that this isn’t herself anymore. Amane is in a limbo between rejecting her personhood for god, but at the same time rejecting the suffering she’s been through in order to save “herself”. Amane’s case is so interesting, as there’s no clear answer of what she believes in here, and it is truly fascinating.

#milgram #Milgram theory #milgram analysis #amane momose #mikoto kayano #john kayano #john milgram #kotoko yuzuriha #es milgram #uhhhh this was meant to be a quick analysis how did this turn into an exploration of the identities of 5 characters #And comparing it to a scene from dra which focused a lot around the loss of someone’s beliefs completely destroying their identity? #May analyse that scene directly because the whole philosophical and psychological concepts coming into play there is just soooo cool #and man I was kinda figuring out stuff as I was writing this but like I said it’s so interesting how Amane isn’t completely dedicated to go #Like the other characters I mentioned who have dedicated their whole identities to something #And Amane’s at the struggling between her true self and her perfect religious self #But perhaps she doesn’t entirely realise this conflict going on within #Which is interesting as a realisation of their identities would probably cause the other characters to lose it #But Amane it’s coming to her in a different way #She’s so strong uahhhahhajajshshshs #Tw cults #Ok now thinking about this more I’m starting to see this whole ideology apply to other dra characters as well #Man this is just so interesting #Like Kinji although having nowhere near as bad of a situation of amane was in a way forced to repress his emotions his entire life #Due to religious reasons and to devote his life to god and reject personhood #Surprisingly he’s actually not a bad person but still is very stoic and avoids other people due to being taught those values #And kinji’s a whole parallel to Tsurugi so this would be really interesting #I would talk about Tsurugi here but this is primarily a milgram post so for everything he’s like kotoko with a dedication to justice #But handles it in a very different way #His story is just way to long to analyse now #But hey this is an invitation to play (or watch bc downloading the game is hard technically) danganronpa another

Look, it’s him, Shadowsight, and only Shadowsight

What do you mean there’s something behind him?

#wc #warrior cats #my art #warriors #Ashfur #Shadowsight #this is him at the end of the arc looking back on things #I think sometimes Shadowsight would see Ashfur out the corner of his injured eye #but then turn and see no one there #maybe sometimes Shadowsight can still hear his voice #I really like Shadowsight and his character arc is surprisingly well done #the most frustrating thing about Shadowsight is that he has no steaks in Thunderclan or Bramblestar and Squirrelflight’s relationship #so Ashfur has do a bunch of random stuff to get Shadowsight involved #I still think Alderheart should have been Shadowsight but I do like Shadowsight for what he is

i hate how much of a inner child self healing influencer i feel like when i even acknowledge feelings like this but watching people parent little ones in good or even just normal ways just sends me back to all the things i would get in outsized, dramatic, often violent trouble for. the one that transported me back in time just now was a toddler asking about death. my mother would probably have hit me in the face and then cried about it

#a lot of the ones i can remember were asking about sex #i turned out surprisingly well adjusted considering lol #one time i played gymnastics with a doll and pretended she broke a bone and had to go to the doctor #and i got in trouble for being quote hateful

The very first two sculptures I've gotten out of the kiln in this class: a bear and a badger. The bear was a prototype, and I'm glad I made it because it didn't fire to the colors I want for the final product. The badger is just for fun :3

#the badger was surprisingly good; the bear sadly not as good as I expected. ah well #the bear turned out kinda swampy colored. which is not bad—but I want to go for a bit more vibrancy in the next one #ceramics #bear #badger
