DxP REWRITE - Recollection

DxP REWRITE - Recollection

*To be clear, he also remembered (almost) all the names Ansy mentioned in the last one, but since the conversation was about Ansy as the girl who looked like Mizumi, he only mentions her here.

A lot of people asked why he can’t seem to remember Emmet - I was gonna talk about it in these next few comics, not to worry! In the game, Ingo begins to remember Chandelure & Emmet, but seems to forget right away - talking to Volo about his amnesia, he says “I can’t remember my own home, nor my family, if I had any…” I feel like Ingo would’ve concluded that the “man who looks like me” was family, so I interpreted that as him beginning to recover a memory, but losing it. 

This can happen when recovering memories. My own circumstances were different from Ingo‘s, though I imagined some things are the same, like how memories closer to your heart, good or bad, are harder to get back & retain. It’s a process to be sure, one that benefits from having kind, supportive people around you as you sort through all of that. 🩵

hello! I just wanted to say I Adore your art style- you always make Andy’s hair so light and flowy! And you draw expressions so well! It’s genuinely really nice and fun to look at! And you just put in so much detail in every single panel I’m stunned! (I would be more specific but I don’t. Want to turn this into an essay lol-) and the backstory leading up to this is really cool! I just can’t wait to see where you take this! (But also like- take your time! All amazing things are worth waiting for and breaks are important! Safety first!)

(also- thanks for posting this here, I don’t have an instagram and I’m really really happy I can see this!)

Thank you for the kind feedback, & your concern! (lol while I’m guessing it was autocorrect, her name is Ansy, pronounced “AHN-see”)

The nice thing about drawing a lineless style is that I don’t have to worry about making clean lineart & coloring in those lines - that saves me a LOT of time. I do take days off, & have work or just daily life to give me mental breaks from the comic (though I often get story ideas as I go about my day lol) Also, to be completely transparent, I gave myself a generous head start lol, allowing me to work at a more relaxed pace. 🩵🌧️ (lol, yeah, if it weren’t for my friends there, I might’ve just moved here - IG < Tumblr)

DxP REWRITE - Two Umbrellas

We can thank a single line of dialogue from Masters EX for this moment: I was looking for inspo in his quotes when I happened on one where he offers to escort the player to their destination. From that & other things he’d say, I’ve concluded that Ingo is a bit of a mother hen - he’s the guy to walk little old ladies across the street, zero in on a child’s crying, has a first aid kit in his pocket, etc. Call it older sibling instinct (I have it too lol).

This is how I see his friendship with Ansy - starting off as walking her around Nimbasa City, then just going on walks together where they’d talk about stuff. Then if they get caught in the rain, Ansy has an umbrella if he doesn’t. 🌧️ 

Speaking of which, in case you don’t know or haven’t watched enough anime lol, she was telling Emmet that where she’s from (Kanto), sharing an umbrella can mean they’re dating (no worries, he has his own umbrella off-screen, a Tynamo one like Ingo’s Lampent umbrella).

PS: Emmet’s friendship with Ansy is basically just one long game of teasing the other - started off with him trying to make her smile as always, then she surprised him by teasing back. The rest is history. 🤭

DxP REWRITE - Training Grounds

This might be the first Pokémon battle I’ve ever done in multi-panel form. I actually had to redraw it a little last minute because I forgot Stone Edge is an attack from below, not above lol

I was talking with the mister how it’s odd that Rock moves tend to have iffy accuracy, which he reasoned is balanced out by their high power. Doesn’t help, though, when they’re facing an agile opponent like Glaceon (would‘ve been more evasive if weather moves & abilities existed in Hisui’s time - good luck trying to hit a Snow Cloak Glaceon 🌨️❄️)

While he still doesn’t have most of his memories (he has a vague picture of where he came from at this point, no names or places yet), I’d like to think parts of Ingo’s old personality started to come back, namely his volume. I always thought it sweet, though, how he drops his arms (because they must be tired holding them up in that pose lol), & smiles at us when we win. ^_^

So, this is a great artist who has this amazing Submas comic called Redirect featuring Ingo & her delightfully spitfire OC Mari, & she’s trying to get commissions to help with moving! I’m moving in a month, so I get it 😅 Whether it’s a commission or a reblog, I’d appreciate you showing her some support! 🩵
