Hi! I Love Your Art What Program Do You Use To Draw?

i have an essay to write [id in alt!]

The poem is Labor Pains by Yosano Akiko and her outfit is based on her mayoi card

moredrunkzaiiii

raaaaaaaaaaa

But of course! And i obviously took it way too seriously... again.

If you like drunk Dazai, consider checking caelanglang's little strips, both Dazai and Chuuya are absolutely adorable!

Not bsd but like...... It's sangonomiya fucking kokomi so yk 💅

It's also 5 fucking am as I'm posting this.......

About the whole "Fyodor-switch personality" thing: We don't have enough information to confirm whether it was real or fake right now, and besides, both possibilities are really interesting.

If the switch was real and Fyodor was lying to cover it up (...because 'you know characters can lie, right' could mean... this part of it was the lie too...), that could easily be made a reference to Dostoevsky's The Double, as I was kindly made aware of. We've also already had an image of a young woman who looks like Aya from potentially a long time ago, given the outfit and that it is Bram's memory we're presumably seeing there, which may tie in interestingly with "what year is it?" The knife he pulled out also is genuinely a unique design for the series, and looks like it might be an old make. If this original is very old, then something in the takeover of personalities may explain why he hasn't seemed to age. Fyodor being a separate personality created from his ability and kicking out the original could tie in with his ability not attacking him in Dead Apple. This also raises more questions about Fyodor's motives, and I think opens the path for some pretty fascinating theory making. It also places Fyodor as something both human and not... intriguing for the ongoing theme of humanity in the series.

If the switch was a fake and Fyodor was being a completely hilarious little shit (which, we know the Joker is part of his inspiration and he is often contrasted with Dazai, Nikolai, and Mori, for whom this kind of behaviour would be expected - it's characterization, that's not 'done for no reason'), it would quite possibly be the funniest thing he's done in the series so far. But! More importantly, it strengthens Fyodor's connection with the Book (or rather, with altering the narrative). He's told a lie that sounds completely ridiculous but makes sense given the world and situation he's in - and notably, could fool Sigma... and the readers. Fyodor also managed to change the lightness of his eyes without changing the state of his soul - something that no other character seems to be able to do. (I know Dazai can feign the shocked expression, but that's not the clear lightness we saw in Fyodor's eyes in this panel. Nikolai's eyes change lightness but that actually seems to be genuine.) While this doesn't help us discern anything more about Fyodor's motives, it does emphasize his expertise at information manipulation - we cannot trust a single thing this character says, not just in universe, but out of it too. We, the readers, cannot listen to Fyodor and take anything he says as supporting evidence for theories. If this is true - that's fascinating. The other characters will have to solve the mystery of this man completely indirectly, and so will we.

Of course, there is the secret third option: it was a lie mostly, but there is an element of truth to it somewhere, which is actually par for the course for BSD as a whole. It is very rare that a character turns out to be lying completely. The question then becomes "what part is true and how much is it true", which is also very compelling. This, personally, is what I'm ascribing to for now until new info comes up.

Anyways, the last thing I wanted to point out is that if it was genuine, then remember The Double was inspired by Hohol's works, and if it was a lie, then that is very similar to the bait-and-switch performances that Nikolai has done multiple times in the series. Either way, it implies some influence on Fyodor by Nikolai and of course vice versa, which probably means the return of the clown (finally!) and more focus on their dynamic, which is a funny thing to show Nikolai having apparently had influence on Fyodor (even if in more of a meta way) as he is actively trying to kill him right now.

Love wins/loses?

Fyodor u sick bastard I love you

I'm exhausted

A bit rushed but i rlly like how his haor turned out

Hungry in the Dark

In a city where the light has fallen and the sound of war has grown louder, Abdul Karim, a child, walks barefoot among the rubble of houses, searching for something... anything.

Since he was shot in the head, Abdul Karim has lost his sight, and darkness has settled in his eyes. He lives his days leaning against collapsed walls, his dreams hanging on the phrase, "Tomorrow might be better."

He would say in a low voice, "Mama, I'm hungry... but my stomach isn't the thing that hurts the most. What hurts is that I can no longer see your face."

His mother tried to hide her tears, cooking him whatever she could find: sometimes breadcrumbs, sometimes water and sugar... if she could find it.

Hungry? Yes.

In the dark? Of course.

But his heart is still warm, and his tongue recites the prayer every night:

"Oh Lord, don't deprive me of your tenderness, even if you deprive me of your eyes."

... living in the shadows of war, hungry in body and soul. But hope has not died... because in every living heart, there is an opportunity to create a new light.

Chuffed

Help Abdulkarim recover from his injuries

"Light in the Darkness... Help my brother see life again."
