It's so, so exquisite Anon... To be frank, it's very hard not to interpret their relationship without so many ryona elements. Humm.. It's so hard to condense everything... The fact that Epel feels general terror towards Vil is so telling. He's so terrified of him, completely submissive to Vil's whims and fancies.

The hints we get here and there of Vil finding it amusing to treat Epel this way... It's great... One of the reasons I think their relationship would be a fan favorite to old school dark yaoi enjoyers, Vilpel as a whole gives me the same ahhh... unclean feel that Kaze to Ki gives me. Vil is so manipulative and obviously holds powers over men. Even though canonly he loves and cherishes his boys and would never hurt them, I can see the appeal to keep him a bitchy, obsessive, egotistical, femme fatale type.

It's way too easy to enjoy grimdark AUs with Pomefiore, especially because of Vil. A lot of my favorite AUs are of him just being an insane, obsessive sociopath. Reducing Epel to just being his doll.

Ahh thank you so much!! I'm so happy to add those pics to the ecosystem... I would love to see more Peepel pics to be quite frank... I treasure the ones that exist already and plus, I really love seeing how people mm... put their feelings into watersports? and how they want their audience to react to it? It's fun!!!!!!!!

For me, it's... about the comfort. I really love the embarrassment of Epel being incontinent, it's great and cute to me. You know how people love having charcters being in pain, beat up, etc? that's like me but with Epel pissin himself LOL. I love the AFTERCARE!!!!!! I love the nurturing!! "You're ok, accidents happen... I still love you, I love you, it's ok. Aww! You're still a big man!" just stuff like that, tender.

Then the intimacy of Vil/Rook cleaning him and drying him... While he's a whimpering, hiccupping mess. It just hits the good parts of my brain. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just finished it! I agree with you, it felt rushed...

It was... a pain to watch. I feel sorry for diehard Arcane fans, once the honeymoon phase passes over. This was terrible, felt like the first season never even happened. Bad! -10/10! Bad!! Icky bad! Bad and terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too many annoyances happening at once. I also hate Arcane-styled characters. Warwick's form was so dumb, I thought Viktor looked ugly as the herald. Jinx sucked and was annoying to listen to!! I hate Cait and Vi and they took up way too much screentime. I'm already over thinking about it; what a snorefest. The last 3 episodes were so boring.

I'm not sure what the general opinion of this season is. DO people like it and accept the direction it went in?

Fufufu... I do... I do! ☘♠️🌹

It took me a bit but I fell down a heavy shipping hole of these three. It began with Deuce, he is my favorite. He's stupid and silly, a huge charm point for me... Ahh actually, I would say Deuce is a character I can fawn over because I feel so connected to him. But I digress. It started with Deuce.

I enjoy the aspect each one bring to the table; Riddle, a perfectionist with a fiery attitude. Trey, a calm and somewhat odd entity with a deep sense of accountability. Deuce, a receptive and eager-to-please ex delinquent who looks up to both of them... Tries his best... Ah!!

For bottom/top dynamics and sexualities:

Trey, an asexual top with strange fetishes and kinks. Knowledgable.

Riddle, pure power botty. Clumsy and "pure" but determined. Only gets off to anal and is a size queen.

Deuce, switch. Has never pleased a guy like Trey but feels compelled to bottom for him, sorta in a way to show respect. He tops Riddle, eagerly going into raw autopilot mode to fuck him.

I feel like in some ways, so many dynamics just work for them. They protect and love each other. I especially love Riddle and Trey's childhood friendship. Funnily enough, King and I shipped Doos and Rido first. Trey naturally happened lol in a way it feels kinda canon!

The three of them just feel so organic...

(beaming!!) Thank you Anon!!! I'm a huge advocate for anyone wanting to pick up drawing ... If I had to offer any tips, ahhh... I would say:

1. persistence is key, and while that might sound daunting and maybe even possibly boring, ask yourself: what makes you happy, what inspires you right now? And did you consider that you don't have to be "good" or Correct when it comes to style and form? When I was little, I was taught that Proper Anatomy/Realism = Good Art, the correct way to art. WRONG! (but to an extent it's important to understand flow and perspective too!)

I beat myself up over it now that I'm way older. Are you more interested in drawing faces, expressions, hair, or other body parts-- but aren't completely interested in learning how to draw other assets? That's FINE! What's essential to you and what do you want to convey? You can convey so much just through simplicity alone. There's not a need to be anatomically correct, and art shouldn't make you feel inclined to do something that doesn't bring you joy or doesn't add anything to what you want to put out into the world. So go you! Draw your 1st, 50th, 50000th bust shot!! If it makes you happy, do it! Keep doing it! Persistence is key here!

1. utilizing tools and inspiration; A lot of people look down at tracing and imitation, but I think we've bastardized using them as a studying technique. When I was young I was really into Rumiko Takahashi's works but was too nervous to "copy" her style. I hope that people understand that copying/tracing can be a powerful tool to learn with. You don't necessarily become a copycat or a Tracer; and with persistence and inspiration, you do end up developing your own unique style.

Now there is a fine line and whatnot here. There are people that talentlessly trace and you can really tell between when an Artist is Inspired by something, and when Talentless Normie #3304 copies a pic of a big breasted anime girl lol (if that makes sense) What you're doing is studying, what Normie is doing is just tracing without soul or the willingness to learn.

Eventually things come naturally to you. You discover shortcuts, and how to draw up things faster and faster without looking at references.

Oh! And simply observing things around you, and just admiring pictures of characters and their traits. What do you like about the composition of this picture? or what do you like about the expression of this particular character in a freeze frame? As you can tell prolly from my rambling, a lot of creation for me form stems from joy and happiness. How inspiring! I feel like I could look at a picture of Epel once and feel so overwhelmed with inspiration and love that I just GOTTA draw him again!

1. Don't Sweat The Small Stuff; I keep this in mind when I draw. I like to try and draw loosely and messily. I don't mess with a million rendering stuff. Idk how to do most things really, I just scribble sometimes, or sometimes I attempt bigger art pieces because I get struck with inspiration (patience is something I will never ever master so I rarely make big epic pictures). One issue I've had majorly was: "does this look right? this doesn't look right". It's a mindset that I struggle with still, it's hard to feel fanciful sometimes at your own art. You get stuck in your own head. I'm really lucky enough to have a 2nd party to help critique me!

Overall, I know people aren't going to care what details look like. Does the art process start getting upsetting and demotivating? Then it's time to relax and refocus, understand it's okay that it doesn't look right to you. When art isn't fun anymore, that's when you need to prioritize again. What's essential to you? You don't NEED to draw certain things to a degree just to get to the Main Event. (for instance, you want to draw boobies but don't want to draw arms or anything. But you feel like you need to, in order for the pic to work. Guess what! you don't need to! Don't force yourself to!)

What you need to always keep in mind is that: does it make you happy? Then Do it! No one likes art from a miserable and soulless wretch. (except me, im miserable and soulless)

Down Sides/Sides people don't talk about (from my perspective):
There are also downsides to art and it's just inevitable. Take heart! you aren't alone when you feel these things! They're normal. They're part of the process. Do not lose hope!

1. You don't like your style (Time and technique and persistence alleviates this)
2. You want to draw NSFW/Weird/Off putting art. (No one tells you how hard it can be to start putting yourself out there in this way. The only way to start is just to... do it. start. It gets easier with ever post and creation!)
3. You will never feel satisfied with a piece. (this for me is the truest of all. I never feel truly fully happy with any art I make. It's important to remember you draw and create for fun, pleasure, and you're putting your soul and heart into it. There's no need to get lamentable. Not everyone is capable of technical skill. There is good in all human-created art, yours included. Even if you don't see it)
4. It's hard work. (it doesn't have to be BAD work, but it is work. It takes t ime and effort depending what you find essential to draw!)
5. You get stuck on numbers. (You get obsessed watching your likes, reposts, follower count, etc. Keep in mind, create for yourself and your closest friends. If people like what you put out there, they will come. They come in random waves, too. It's never consistent. Also keep in mind that there are living people out there LIKING your art! 10 likes may seem like nothing at first, but I always think: holy shit. that's. ten. different. souls. Ten different people liking something I made! WOW!!!)

remember those drawings you thought were ugly you made years ago? You'll look back on them fondly eventually. There is joy and beauty in everything, inspiration is everywhere, and it's a joy and a blessing to be able to create. That's why I say to you anon, DRAW!!!!!!!!!! THAT!!!!!!!!!! PICTURE!!!!!!

and draw vil with a huge fat ass
