A sketchy drawing of Yosuke Hanamura and Yu Narukami from Persona 4. They are both wearing t-shirts. Yu is telling Yosuke something while Yosuke shyly looks away.
Yu is holding Yosuke's cheek as he gets closer. To his face. They are looking at each other, blushing.
Yosuke holds Yu by his shoulders as we see Yu from the back.
Yu and Yosuke kiss and Yosuke throws his arms over Yu's shoulders.

An original Yakuza character, Jun Hirano, she's a woman with short messy black hair with rare grey hairs. She has a scar on the left side of her lips, her left ear lobe is ripped and she just looks super tired. Text at the bottom right reads: "Jun Hirano, 30"
An original Yakuza character, Fuyuko Ikeda. She has short shaggy black hair. She wears long golden earrings and a golden choker. Text on the bottom right reads: "Fuyuko Ikeda, 33"
Two figures stand together. On the left is Jun Hirano, she is wearing a washed dark green cap, an oversized brown dirty jacket with fur, under it is two layers of shirts, the one on the bottom is dark green and the one on top is a dirty beige one. Her hands are wrapped in bandages. She wears baggy beige camo pants and dirty sneakers, the sneaker on her left leg is taped together at the end. There are black backpack straps visible and she's also holding a hunting knife. The woman on the right, Fuyuko Ikeda, is wearing a gakurai inspired washed-out blue top with short sleeves that has golden buttons and a golden trim at the end if the sleeves; there is a sleeveless dark blue jacket that goes to the middle of her thigh and has slightly brighter blue on it's lapels and collar; her stomach is exposed. She wears a blackpencil skirt with a slit on the left side thats closer to the middle of the skirt; a brown pantyhose and dark-brown boots that go up to her calves. She also has a black bag with golden chain strap and white rhombus lining on the bag itself.
Depicts Fuyuko sitting on a red sofa in a off-the-shoulder assymetrical dress; the right side of the dress has a wide long sleeve and the left side has a strap over the shoulder with no sleeve. She has her golder earrings, choker, necklase, a belt and an arm bracelet. She also has stockings on her legs. And she's holding a cigarette.
Shows Fuyuko leaning over Jun, who we see from her back. Fuyuko is wearing a low-cut short drape dress with no sleeves. Jun is wearing a suit. Jun is a bit flustered so she holds her hand out in surprise as Fuyuko is reaching for her hand, eyes staring straight at her.

Something different from persona wowie

This time its... Yakuza OCs? I dunno I'm not super knowledgeable in Yakuza lore I did them for shits and giggles so they are not tied to particular part or anything

I drew them just to motivate my fren to finish their ocs lol

Jun is homeless and Fuyuko is a model and they kissy kissy with each other thats as much as I know about them

U prolly won't see them much (unless u ask me about them maybe I can cook smth up idk)

A sketchy drawing of an original Persona 5 character - Ume Yoshioka. She is sitting on a stool in the kitchen. Ume is wearing a tank top and pajama pants. She is reading a magazine with her right hand and her left arm is lifted up on her left leg, which stands on the stool, and the hand is holding her head; her right leg is on the floor. Near Ume stands a table with a mug and leaning on the table is a walking cane.
A sketchy drawing of an original Persona 5 character - Ume Yoshioka. Ume is sitting up close, eating sushi with her right hand and looking at her flip phone that she holds in her left hand. Coming from the phone are rectangles that say: "Sensational!", "Celebrity scandal!" and "New! Sale!"

New chapter of The shards of fate that cut the skin apart is out neow!

Chiyoko goes to meet Akechi as promised to find out more about their situation.

But something is not right...

Yoshizawa getting dropped into the pit during a school festival dancing part and everyone being like "woah shes so cool and graceful" is so unrealistic

When I did that as my undiagnosed elementary school self everyone fucking laughed at me and then I quit my dancing lessons altogether out of shame

And this shit is in HIGHSCHOOL where shes already TREATED UNFAIRLY because she doesn't meet the qualities of an honor student

Like hell Im gonna believe that an already ostracized girl is getting "wow"s and happy gasps as she fucking twirls a few times

I might be in my hater era tho idk maybe it does happen like that and Im just unlucky as fuck

A sketchy comic with Ume and Akechi. On the right we see Ume holding and looking down at a piercing gun, aka her gun of choice in her Phantom Thief outfit (design down below with more explanations) with Akechi standing behind her and smirking at the notion. Akechi is wearing his prince attire with his long-nosed mask. The second frame is on the top left, where Ume turns to Akechi to explain how much potential a gun with a needle can hold against shadows (precise text is written in the post). The last frame in the bottom left corner shows Ume from behind her shoulder as she smiles and asks Akechi if he was just volunteering to test the gun's potential on himself. Akechi looks more cartoonish now, shaking his head and refusing her proposal nervously.

Felt silly while replaying P5R and Im about to go to Sae's palace so I felt like it was fitting to draw Crow's prince outfit

Oh also a "what if Ume had a Phantom Thief attire" scenario because I am weak Im only human

Gonna write the text here rather than in ID cuz my handwriting is whack

1. Crow: "A piercing gun? What a strange choice..!"

2. Hime(Ume's code name): "Did you know that 25% of people are afraid of needles of any kind? And this kind of piercing gun does more harm than good most of the time. You shouldn't underestimate it, big bro."

3. Hime: "Or were you volunteering to test it's damage capabilities personally?"

Crow: "I'd rather not."

And ofc a concept of Hime's PT outfit below

Ume's Phantom Thief attire. Code name: Hime, aka Princess. She wears a black canine mask with white spotting on the nose, around the eyes and little dotted eyebrows, the inner of the ears are white too. Her black hair with purple highlights is held up into a short high ponytail with a fade on the bottom. Her jaw is protected with a metal cover that connects to the silver broad collar necklace. An assymetrical black cape with silver feather design is connected to the collar necklace along with silver shoulder pads. She uses rollerblades with side blades connected to the shoe as her melee and uses a purple piercing gun as a gun choice. She wears bright purple gloves. On the top right we see her costume from behind without the cape. There is a big opening on the spine. We also see that all the belts come from under the folds on her costume and connect in the front as a normal belt. Her right pants leg is short, and down the leg is something similar to a stocking that is ripped from behind, which also bears a resemblance to a knee brace. There are also knee pads on both legs. The rest of the design without the cape is on the next picture.
The bodysuit is made in two colors: purple and black. The purple goes down the middle from the cleavage point, where its covered by the same silver collar necklace. The sides are black. The sleeves are the same two colors, where purple is near the body and the black slits from the shoulder down to the hands into a wide sleeve. The chest has two black folds that go behind, it was two purple lines going in the middle of the fold. The pant legs are cut, the right leg is purple and it flares down over the outside of the right ankle. The left leg is the same but black, it is also connected to the rest of the bodysuit, unlike the right stocking.

More explanations below? If ur willing to read em lol [spoilers for p5 and Ume's story down the line]

If u're caught up with the fics u know that Ume is a demigod, an egyptian one. So I went with the animal mask motif and the broad collar necklace shape that is common in Egyptian murals.

The belts are there to give some resemblance to Akechi's Black Mask bodysuit pattern, while keeping it somewhat fresh and unique (imo).

The sideblades on rollerblades is her weapon of choice (this is kept from her original design that I'm yet to announce properly <3); the piercing gun came to me as a joke, but we can chuck it up to the fact that Ume is more than willing to continue leaning the hairdressing skill from Chiyoko and later expand her salon to a more general one where she can be the piercing master.

The right leg's design is inspired by the knee braces due to the [spoiler] knee injury she often suffered while being on ice. Ume wears her knee brace quite often.

And the silhouette overall is inspired by the 80s, as, well, most of the things accociated with Ume. (Im unsure where most of the inspo comes from so I usually say 70s-80s so please don't shoot me if I mistake an era by accident).

The code name "Hime" or "Princess" comes form the fact that she can technically be considered a princess of the underworld due to her lineage. As well as Chiyoko loved playing as her teddy bear and making Ume the princess in their roleplaying, Ume loved it too as a kid. (Also I think Akechi would call her "princess" as a joke because Im silly and delusional)

Also Im not good at drawing animals...

A sketchy drawing of Kitagawa Yusuke and the protagonist from Persona 5. They are both wearing long-sleeved t-shirts and sweatpants. On the left Yusuke is sitting on the ground, his arms are crossed on top of his legs and his left eye is peeking at the protag. The protagonist is sitting next to him, his head lying on Yusuke's shoulder, the protag is crying and hugging himself. On the right is a sketchy drawing of Yusuke cuddling the protag and the text above his head reads: "so clingy..."

A few drawings of Goro Akechi from Persona 5 and an original Persona 5 character Ume Yoshioka. The first most left pair of them are wearing each other's clothes: Akechi is wearing a black-purple bomber jacket with purple sleeves, light-purple collar and purple pockets, warmer purple t-shirt with a black graphic, dark-purple jeans with a belt and a chain sticking out from under the shirt and white sneakers. Ume is wearing Akechi's blue argyle vest, white shirt, beige slacks and brown shoes. Ume's hair is black with purple highlights and she is wearing glasses. 
Next pair in the middle is Ume wearing both of Akechi's metaverse outfits: one on the left is wearing a pure-white knight outfit with red cuffs and golden accents, a red, long-nosed mask and a short red cape behind that splits into two; the one on the right is wearing a body-covering, black and dark blue striped outfit, a crow mask with horns and a tall collar that covers her face, she has a few black belts on her left arm, waist, and legs, there is also a short black ripped cape behind her. 
On the most right is Akechi, wearing the same outfit as before, but this time the bomber is zipped up, he has elbow and knee guards, black fingerless gloves and a black open-face helmet, also wearing rollerblades with blades on the outer sides of them. His hair is longer than before due to a personal design change.

idk more style swaps cuz I vub them a lot

Akechi looks gay as shit in Ume's outfit idk why

Ume kills it tho queen go slay your enemies

A sketchy drawing of Goro Akechi from Persona 5 and Ume Yoshioka - a Persona 5 original character. Ume is wearing light purple slacks, a white short-sleeved shirt and a purple argyle sweater vest. She is standing on the right. Akechi is wearing a greyish-blue t-shirt with medium length sleeves with a lighter blue part zipped to it, dark blue cargo shorts, white socks and light-grey sneakers. They are standing near a railing, a sketchy drawn trees and a city can be seen behind them.

Style switch.

Been feeling down lately but these two manage to still slip thru my depression

Drawing them kinda makes me forget everything ngl

Also new chapter posted!

Here is a snippet:

“...Your connection to the Metaverse, your reaction to the call- How much do you know about this situation?!” Akira felt agitated. Even to him it felt out of character, but he finally heard from Akechi and he can’t even see his face, can’t hear his voice, can’t ask him who did this to him?! And not to mention the Metaverse returning after Yaldabaoth was defeated. 

“I can’t tell you, I’m sorry…” Chiyoko refused to look at him, she was trembling slightly.

“Why?! Shit… Why?! Are you being threatened? By who?!” The guy couldn’t find a place for himself, his body was turning in anger and confusion from this situation.

“You could say that. But in reality I… I don’t want to put you on the radar too. It’s… a very dangerous situation to be in.” She turned her head away and then Akira noticed something familiar on her neck.

“This…” 

I would really appreciate checking it out, I will draw a proper cover when I get back to my former self hehe~

Two characters sit in the middle - Goro Akechi from Persona 5 and Ume Yoshioka, and original Persona 5 character - there are also separate profiles of them on the sides - Ume on the right and Akechi on the left. Akechi has longer hair, part is tied into a mid-ponytail and the rest is shorter hanging freely. He is wearing a t-shirt and sweatpants. Ume has her hair in a high-ponytail, and a low fade under it. She is wearing a tank-top that is showing her sides, and sweatpants. We see Ume from behind, she is painting Akechi's nails and is saying "Stop moving, oniisan..." (Oniisan means older brother). Ume on the rirght is saying: "Did Aki-kun inspire you to paint them? Or was it a dare? Aand... done!" Akechi on the left is saying: "Can't a guy paint his nails for fun? Also, uh..."
Akechi is looking at his nails and asks Ume: "Was it... necessary to draw my masks and little crows on my nails? Did that moron* ask you to do that?" *Moron is referring to Akira Kurusu/Ren Amamiya(Persona 5 protagonist). On the right is shown his left hand with little drawings on each of his nails: pinky - eye of the crow, ring finger - a crow silhouette, middle finger - Crow's black mask, index finger - Crow's hero mask, big finger - a feather. Ume in the top right corner is grinning and saying: "Maybe~"
From right to left: Akechi's face from the side, he looks a bit baffled, listening to Ume: "I need to take a pic for Aki-kun! Oh, and mom! (Mom is referring to Chiyoko Yoshioka, another original character). On the left the frame zooms onto Akechi's mouth and his baffled expression changes to a happy one as he smiles. Ume is saying: "Gimme your hands, neow!"
Angle changes again, this time we see Ume's face. She is taking a picture of Akechi's right hand nails and is saying: "Whatchu grinning about, bro? You like it?" Akechi is smiling and replies back: "It's nothing. Let's finish up already. It's okay, I guess." Then there is text on the left, in a dark blob that reads: "We got our revenge. We can live our lives as normal now."

A happy ending.

I've decided to take a break from torturing the mommy/daddy issues step siblings and draw something silly

Might post the fic continuation today idk we'll see

Original Persona 5 character - Ume Yoshioka- is looking in the mirror, irises shaking in fear, she looks to her(mirrored) left to see Akechi, who doesn't have a face - instead it's a static-y black-purple-gold blob slowly shifting in form. Ume is wearing her Shujin school uniform (white turtleneck with two arrows on the collar and black skirt with red-and-white plaid) and a dark grey hoodie on top. Akechi is wearing a beige coat, green scarf with a red-and-white plaid, black slacks and black shoes.
Text Reads: "The White Rabbit"

this is impressive how fun animation can actually be when you yourself find it relaxing

it doesn't happen very often for me, but when it does it just pure bliss

and I think thats why I couldn't force myself to do it in college, with constant assignments and tests on other subjects it really ripped any joy that I could've felt animating my diploma, cuz "it was just another assignment"

instead of "this is a fun new skill to learn" it was bombarded with other shit that ruined your creativity immensely

god I fucking hate education, I hatehatehatehate it, creativity shouldn't be disturbed by other shit like maths fuckeducation rrreahahrraharehrahrhj

animation as a concept: omigod its so cool and fun and look my silly billies move now haha im so happy

animation in reality: why do I have to animate shadows why does it take so long why is this not as whimsical as I thought it would be

Original Persona 5 character - Ume Yoshioka, is standing in an old gloomy attic in front of an old vanity which is covered by a big cloth. The light is coming from behind the vanity, emanating from the open window. Ume is wearing a dark-grey hoodie, black skirt with white and red plaid, black leggings, grey leg warmers and white sneakers with brown soles; she also has a black school bag on her left shoulder, on which a plushie hangs - a distressed-looking demon girl reminiscent of Sanrio's Kuromi (legally destinct) in purple clothing and with a little purple hat on its head. There is white text surrounding Ume and the vanity: "Curiosity killed the cat' Have you heard of it?"

WE ARE SO BACK

Das riight, I've finally made some decent progress in my fanfic endeavors and we are continuing Ume's story!

This time it is a bridge fanfic that I hope you will enjoy!

(Imma tag everyone who appears in this mess teehee)

Me forgetting about golden week and then rewriting the schedule actually put the whole schedule into a better pace, kinda poggers

It opened up a few days to introduce another tutorial better and not too rushed due to the second dungeon being crammed in there

It was fate hehe

GinButNotTonic's artist persona (it/its pronouns) (has two black horns and a black demon tail, wearing black shorts and a t-shirt, headphones on the head) humming and writing something in the notebook, we see it from the back. The text above reads "working on the project's schedule"
Same character. This time facing the camera. It's holding a pencil and there is a book stand in front of it. Text reads: "Why does the schedule make no sense? Am I missing something?"
Same character. This time we see it from the back again, further away. It's holding a phone. Text reads: *googling what I missed*
Same character. It's making a defeated pose, arms spread out to the sides, screaming. Text reads:  "I missed the golden week" With a bunch of "AAA"hs around it.

So yeah i have to revise the schedule for the third time god damn it

It is a very tedious process, being the project manager is a nightmare you guys

And I wrote the events into May already ughhh

A very contrast, sketchy drawing of Akechi Goro from Persona 5 standing, his face obstructed by a black-blue-red scribbles; over his chest is written "I'm sorry" in white. The figure on the floor, an original character Ume Yoshioka, is grabbing Akechi's left leg. Her right leg is bleeding, golden spike sticking out of it; above her head is written "Don't leave again please" in purple. Background has black and golden stripes on dark-red gradient.

The will of a God Father

I suddenly felt unmotivated today about my project and it lowkey made me feel very sick cuz I'm not ready to let it go when I just started developing it's story seriously, so I needed to make something to vent

so I chose to spoil the bridge fanfic that I'm currently writing to connect both stories from P5 to whatever the fuck I'm doing

Thanks to everyone who reblogs my art and who writes tags about my OC's story, it does help me get back on track in this bohemeth I've taken upon myself to finish, I cannot express how much it helps me <3

Also I will try to transcribe my works from now on :)

I did change the original's "Down" hairstyle to Curly, cuz Ume already wore her hair down, so a texture change seemed more fitting for her

If you read the fic, leave the kudos. Leave a comment too, if possible. Just do it. It takes a few seconds of your time and it means the world to the writer.

Sincerely, me who just got told that my writing feels like watching a blockbuster movie. I don't care if they were sincere or not, I'll be thinking about that comment for the rest of my life and every time I feel bad about my art, I'll remember that someone once liked it.
