It's my responsibility now to dry your tears

Drew something quick based on an idea that came to me earlier this week.

I have been working on bigger things, but for some reason I want to keep them for next month when the Hakuouki Anniversary marathon passes by (Series' Anniversary on the 18th, Shinkai's anniversary and Shinkai Hijikata hen on the 25th), in case I don't manage to finish anything more "anniversary"-ish.

Just triangular stuff🍈🍙💜

(Not that it's actually midsummer, but happy August \o/ Today is the official release day of Hakuouki - Chronicles of Wind and Blossom. Hopefully your copies arrive swiftly!)

The original thought behind his picture: does Hijikata's snack set from Otomate Garden have watermelon because it's triangular like onigiri?

Would Chizuru make that joke? I'd like to believe she would. Kind of wanted to create a picture similar to the fullbody yukata images Okita and Saitou got for Tsukikage and Ginsei, but didn't quite make it there.

Also inspired by Yuugiroku 2 (which you should definitely play if you understand some Japanese because it's amazing).

Bringing more old Hakuouki art! ⚔️🌸 In this 2018 artwork, Hijikata and Chizuru are finally reunited at the end of their route under the blossoming cherry trees!

"Then, supporting you is my responsibility, isn't it?"

It's meant as a little mirror piece to the other drawing I did. Chizuru's not the only one who cries, but they're not alone.
