Hello, Sua.
Goodbye, Sua.
Sumeru has a bunch of my fav characters, had fun drawing them! eheh
I personally think that Scara probably still deals with trauma / self-loathing from his past + blames himself for being manipulated by Dottore and for the fact that his attempt to sacrifice himself via Irminsul to bring everyone back failed. Due to his general distrust of humans I kinda made this headcanon that cats / the aranara / birds / Nahida help get him out of his own head when he's going down that path and starts overthinking everything and getting overwhelmed by all that's happened to him / the new realizations he had in the interlude quest so yea
✨HAPPY NEW YEAR✨
Thank you for the support in 2023 🥺🫶
Random Alhaitham and Kaveh headcanon incoming involving plants and interior design
So Kaveh is absolutely plant crazy and has a bunch of aerogardens and probably a few terrariums to decorare the house, but since his style is more spontaneous bursts of 3 am creativity and motivation and not consistent and logical work he'd be terrible at taking care of them (along with taking care of himself) even if he's trying his best because either he or the plants will get burnt out
And meanwhile Haitham's just a straight up plant nerd but keeps reeeeaaal uiet about it, and watches from afar while "reading," then when Kaveh goes to sleep or to his room or to get absolutely wasted at the tavern with Cyno and Tighnari or something he'll just go and fix up the plants and the setup for them and such
And since he's 1) learned to pick his arguments more carefully with Kaveh so Kaveh doesn't get overwhelmed (and so Alhaitham can spend his arguments on things more important than plants, like Kaveh's self-destructive levels of empathy), and 2) probably knows that Kaveh blames himself a lot for his father's death and is always feeling that he needs to be there for others out of guilt + is hard on himself when he can't help people, Alhaitham stays quiet about Kaveh's terrible gardening skills so he doesn't blame himself for neglecting / not caring for the plants
Which of course leads to Kaveh thinking that he's an absolute gardening prodigy and leads to him buying even more plants, while Alhaitham's torn between being vaguely happy that Kaveh is enjoying himself, and heavily regretting his actions because now he has even more plants to take care of
I need to draw this

hikaru ga shinda natsu is about coming back wrong and haunting the narrative and being queer in a small rural town and internalised homophobia and summers that feel like they'll never end and the codependent homoerotic friendship you had when you were 15 and what it means to be dead or alive and navigating a world you feel like you dont belong to and grief and mourning and obsession and love and most importantly, having gay thoughts for the eldritch monster that bodysnatched your friend's corpse
