Thanks!! Honestly, it still feels like a fever dream. I clearly remember every step involved in creating this drawing, but it feels more like I watched someone else do it?

Sometimes I look at the original and think in wonder: "Huh, I actually made this."

Sparks just like Hibana

[ID: Traditional waist-up drawing of Shionne and Alphen from Tales of Arise.Their eyes are obscured, faces very close together. Their fingers are touching ever so slightly and a coil of Shionne’s Thorns wraps around their forearms, lighting up their hands and faces. Sparks of white and orange like fire are rising from their forms. The second picture is a close-ups of their hands.]

Akusaimonth: Berserk Mode Day 19: Quotes

I'll always be there to bring my friends back.

(I can’t escape from a dark reality that has built up to this point. The walls are closing in, and I’m stuck inside.

Hold on. I’m coming for you, no matter what it takes.)

“What do you think you’re doing? You’re blocking my light.” “M-mm. Try saying that again without smiling, then maybe I’ll believe you.”

(Felt like fluffy post-KH3 good end AkuSai.) Also, I just realized today ... THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 200 FOLLOWERS, you are amazing!   T  u T )/

Okay, so. If becoming norted DOESN’T mean losing your free will, then what good would it do Xehanort to make Sora a vessel.

I am honestly so done with the Saix discourse around here.

Saix has Xehanort’s EYECOLOUR AND EARS for heaven’s sake. He is clearly at least influenced by Xehanort during his time in Org XIII. Not to mention he has a X carved into his forehead, X like keeping watch on people (see KH3D).

I always thought that Saix is losing more and more of himself to Xehanort, but that’s only my interpretation of course. He’s still at least partially himself, before his death in KH2, yes. He did terrible things, yes. I’m not saying those should be forgotten.

But please don’t forget, that he was also in a terrible situation and he was slowly losing his only support (= Lea). Situations have a huge impact on our decisions and behaviour, which has close to NOTHING to do with our personality. Feel free to google the fundamental attribution error on that one. Does this justify what he did? Not at all. Does this mean he shouldn’t be forgiven? Not. At. All. If he is willing to repent, then let him do it. EVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE.

Then again, I’d like to take a look at the “terrible things” Isa/Saix did. The main problem I see is his behaviour towards Roxas and Xion, who would have needed support and whose situations were clearly made worse by him. Keep in mind that he deeply believes he doesn’t feel any emotions and nobody else around him does either. The definition of empathy (according to Dorsch, Lexikon der Psychologie [translated]) is the cognitive understanding and affective reciprocation of the assumed emotions of another being. Of course Saix doesn’t have any.

The “terrible things” I don’t understand, are those other people see in his interactions with Axel? Roxas and Xion hurt Axel’s mental state way more than Saix, not on purpose of course, but I strongly doubt Saix’ goal was to hurt Axel either. Saix and Axel are ARGUING. Axel doesn’t trust Saix and vice versa. Saix is angry, he’s sad, while he doesn’t acknowledge any of it. He tries to keep Axel close with their shared goal. With pressure, yes, which he didn’t have to, but they are still arguing, remember. There’s still a strong, unresolved conflict in between them. Don’t try to tell me, you’re always kind and caring in an argument, dear haters. Because BY SHARING HATE YOU ALREADY ARE CAUSING DAMAGE TO OTHER PEOPLE. I felt uneasy and irritated, I had sleepless hours thanks to those Saix hate posts. YOU caused me harm with your unnecessary discourse.

So what does this say about you? Shouldn’t you be forgiven?

So, when I’m studying and Schlüsselwortheuristik (keyword heuristic) suddenly becomes Schlüsselschwertheuristik (keyblade heuristic), then I guess it’s time to go to sleep.

I don’t know I found it funny at 3 am.

Akusaimonth: Berserk Mode Day 8: Banter

"Man, I wish I had funny friends", Lea sighed while he leaned on Isa's shoulder. Isa leveled a glare at him and his voice took on a very dry tone: "Well, you're already enough of a clown for both of us. Thrice." Yet when Lea started to grin and said that he was proooobably right about that, Isa couldn't help smiling. "You're an absolute idiot." It wasn't what he had wanted to say, but he knew Lea would understand it anyway. He always did.

AKUSAIMONTH 2015: BERSERK Day 17: SET C - “Void”

It didn’t end. I didn’t know how long I had been falling for. It felt like forever, it felt like an instant. It FELT, I felt. It was all I did, Falling, and Feeling and - remembering. My life passed me by, both of them. A cacophony of sensations and feelings and sounds and voices. The hurt I had caused, the hurt I had been caused. The smiles and the laughs and the love I felt and the hatred. It blurred and twisted and it was beautiful and painful and TOO MUCH and it.

Didn’t.

End.
