I thought of you and me.
for a very long time, I've really hated how difficult I've found it to draw more than one character in a piece. character interactions are my favourite part of art- I love the characterization it provides to have your lil guys interact, I love the extra dynamism of it all, I love comics!! so for the new year, I wanted to practice that
so I've been practicing kisses!
I don't want to commit to anything (the government is railing me yet again and I'm a little sick), but I'm really hoping to do at least a few more of these. this one is 'Controlling Kiss'! featuring Γsta, my bokukko who loses herself in the fantasy of knighthood to escape from the crushing weight of their capitalistic nightmare of a world, and Rin, her partner and my wife's manipulative little creature of a character. those strings are her technology! they're made of, like... hardlight and data and stuff, not usually visible/physical, and help her give people a little nudge in the right direction (or hostile takeover in the right direction) <3
also her hands are meant to be huge ass claws that was on purpose here's a little crop of her design (and asta's)

also just to note, despite the like... dubious implications of her strings, asta 100% consents to anything and everything I will every depict between them, and she would with or without the influence of the technology. I know like hypno/drugs/impaired judgement stuff can be a little fucky sometimes, and that I do draw content like that sometimes, so I just wanted to clarify for comfort's sake!!
