They look so alike to me i just had to suggest the name Venka because the second girl is my bbg Venka


Damn Venka looks like a badass tbh
Amazing art too
I feel so cinematic today
(I did two pretty art pieces of Jien and I can't believe I did that, what's worse(not) is the fact they're not even done,,, they're like messy doodles and sketches, they're not done but they look so good and I'm very proud)
Better do it before I do then.
Thinking of how Jien collects things that remind her of her home during her missions and simple outings, sometimes it can range from one item, a simple souvenirs, but other times it is bags worth of items and she sends them all to her house on the Xianzhou, essentially hoarding all the little things in which she finds a sense of belonging. Her collection grows every time she goes somewhere. It makes me sad.
💌send this to the twelve nicest people you know or who seem to have a good heart and if you get five back you must be pretty awesome.💌

WHO ARE YOU
WHO ARE YOU I SAID
I have discovered a way to get Kai intoxicated!
Fermented crab apples! Because it's been known to make racoons and squirrels and such intoxicated, it seems like it'd work on Kai too.
LMAO
I'm just imagining him at the dinner table hung over from that, clutching like a jar of fermented crab apples, cackling like an idiot

ENOUUGHH
Also got my girl Raiden to c2, pookie was my luckiest pull when I first got genshin, it was time to pamper her a little, show her some love for carrying me for so long
Oh I'm gonna be so sick.
But honestly you're giving me angsty ideas too. More under the cut cause I'm ✨shy✨
Peekabo, hello. (Side note, sadly I did not see this movie either, I'll watch it sometime just to understand this scene in the movie better 😭)
But that idea does fit them so well together aAAAAA. Especially later once they're both able to rely on each other and trust each other. Privacy means so much to both of them and life has done them so dirty as it is so the bond these two have is - ✨chef kiss✨ perfect for angsty scenes like this when either one of them just feels like they can't go on
Just sitting in quiet and holding eachother or holding eachother's hand to show support when nothing else works to calm them. Better to face the struggles together than alone type of thing
Desperately want to draw Kai and Jien (belongs to @n0tamused) as this scene from Godzilla Minus One
(minor spoilers below the cut)

I know that there are romantic tones to Koichi and Noriko's relationship, but I like looking at it through the lenses of "Living through a time where the world was flipped upside down and now they must band together to survive" as that was the main theme of the movie besides survivor's guilt.
Honestly, Kai and Jien just remind me of these two a lot.
A disgraced soldier and a person who found a reason to live as the two try to navigate and return their lives to normal after a huge catastrophe.
I've got brainrot istg
edit: a better way of putting this into words would be: "A man who forgot how to live and a woman who showed him life is worth living."
OH I WANTER TO ASK SO LIKE ratoo and jien have a kid right but can we vet a proposal story? How did ratio be like hey marry me lets have a child cause like the idea of ratoo pulling out a ring is so amusing do u think he just went on a scientific ramble before turning to jien and saying "spend the resg of the life with me pls" sorry for spelling mistakes i had spicy noodles and im simultaneously tired
You're all good pookie dw dw, hope those noodles were good and that you got some rest!
And honestly.. I think it would be really chill between them, at least on jien's side. I imagine it being like them watching something, sitting next to each other and Jien just turns to him and ask "we've been together for a long time.. you think we should get married or something?" and Ratio's world crumbles because... he was planning a surprise, and she just?? Good timing Jien you ruined his plans AAAAA
They do talk about it, and although the convo doesn't end in any formal proposal, Ratio takes is as further encouragement to pop the question later. They would have previously had a lot of talks about marriage and if they wanted kids or not, just the conversations that come naturally when you're in a long term relationship with a person yk. The proposal itself is also chill again but really touching, I imagine it to be some sweet evening walk or a hike to some place with a beautiful view. They don't like people much so it's a private proposal lol. They also get those rings you can "upgrade" uhHHH I forgot if they have a specific name but like when they got engaged it was just a simple pretty band, then when they took their vows and had their anniversary they put like a more decorative piece on it? I saw it on tiktok I believe but I can't find any pictures rn, I hope what I said makes sense. But pretty rings slay
Just red the Red Wedding Chapter. I'm so unwell.

Man I read this before, I watched the show too, but I like it even less than the first time
Jien and Ratio relationship seriously be like:
Ratio: I love you yk, this is real special, I just realised
Jien: awh, I love u too. Only we've been fucking married for 5 years already
They're both slow with it, a bit.
You said it for me lmao. They're too casual about it and when it hits them it's not just that casual they freeze up a bit. They're stupid, your honor
Not so fun fact about Jien, due to the combination of work, her past and her current situation and belief, she's slowly starting to do less of "human things" such as eating or drinking or socialising, just not having any appetite or thinking she has time or need for it. The fact that most people around her do believe she's also a long-life species contributes to this a bit too; she never viewed herself as human, now even less, so why do human things. In a way, in her mind, she's just a vessel, and the only reason she had kept care of herself so far is so the other Shards of hers didn't suffer/die if she died by her own neglect of herself. #nihility
Gonna try using blender today to *try* and make Jien. Will update later.


That was enough.

A little sketch meme this time, a little treat ✨
The roles were supposed to be reversed but a friend made a joke about Jien,,,so we ended up with this. They're both pretty people. Pretty old married couple
The most fun thing I've been thinking about like a fan theory (as I'm my OCs biggest fan frfr) is that the whole "Proxy is out there being evil twin of me" is a whole big mind break on Jien's side. Basically, Proxy does not exist, and Jien has made it all up as a result of her trauma from being basically....blown from her own world through a black hole or some shit. And I'm imagining it as if she's in game and - "we" never actually see Proxy "on screen". Jien barely talks about it since she wants to keep it all hidden too. And all the stuff that happens can be written off as the actions of Sanctus Medicus or some else, they're all terrible and have done terrible things. And Jien is now set on finding this alter ego of hers before it causes more people harm, not knowing she's actually going in circles chasing herself.
Theory: Jien has gone insane. She's going mad crazy, spiraling.
I can't pay attention to my Psychology class because every time we talk about Fixed Ratios or Variable Ratios or whatever all I can think about is Dr. Ratio
I blame you for this /j
Imagine it's him teaching you all of that, chalk in hand and ready to snipe your with it if you don't absorb the information like a dry sponge being set in a water bucket. ☝️
I'm here to spread the Veritas Ratio propaganda 🙏
So you know how you call me pookie? Well if we are writers too, does that make us...wrookie? Pooter? Wrikie? Pookier?
I-

I think.. wrookie has a nice ringing, scrumptious echo to it...
Pooter is more like babytalk but we're both dead beat tired and find eachother on the same google doc at 3am. 'Pooter what are you doing....'
Pookier and wrikie is so goofy help


Decided to hop onto this old trend with my traumatized pookies. I don't draw Proxy nearly as enough but idc she's awful anyway
Just a doodled coloured sketch, tbh I think it turned out pretty cool. I do hope I can execute all the lore ideas I have in my head with these two, however long that may take.
