Hello!!! How has your day been? Did you drink water??? I hope it's going well or it gets better! Also I found crumbs for my rarepair so I am happy. I hope I can transfer some of that joy to you. Telepathy telepathyyyy
Hi !! My day's been petty good~ as in, i've been procrastinating the whole day 😁 my cat is sleeping on me, warming me up
Ohh !!!!!! Eat well anon 😆!! I hope your future is littered with lots of rarepair food. & I can feel the happiness radiating ... 💖
HELLO RASHI. I am here just to remind.u. I love how u draw. Eating your drawings #forever!
HI ANGEL I LOVE U LOTS !!! I haven't finished a proper illustration in forever 😢 sorry for starving u my lovely friend ......
was there something that you liked to read? manga, ranobe, fanfic or classical literature? if was, can you recommend it?
GOSH YOU'VE REMINDED ME I STILL NEED TO FINISH ONE OF MY LIGHT NOVELS...
if anything the most reading I do is hetalia fanfics LOL most of the books I have at home are centred around art and drawing. Although if I should reccomend manga, I'd reccomend Shimanami Tasogare (an LGBTQ+ manga; its visual storytelling is so gripping), The Medalist (an ice-skating manga), Fumetsu no Anata e (focused around an immortal who encounters all sorts of people).
Just so you know, I won't reccomend a manga series where its art / art direction hasn't stunned me 😌
As for literature, I haven't read that much on my own accord so there's not much I can say 😔... I read Froth On The Daydream some time ago and the writing style was very interesting and I found it very beautiful in its own sort of way. I still think about the ending every now and then, especially the bit with the cat and the mouse haha.
Hi Rashi! Do you have any songs recommendations? 👋
Despite my playlist being 100h+, I'm a massive weeb so literally all of that is just Japanese music 🥲 All I can reccomend is vocaloid and utaite covers...
Flower by Toa → https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm25489388
(This is the IA version, and I prefer it over the Miku version because IA's voice is so sunny (?) in this one haha)
Koi no Sainou by Toa, nameless' cover → https://youtu.be/gvAgKEbtPmU?si=fHqB7xliYn6yJ92Z
(nameless is is my favourite utaite alongside un:c hfhfdhsj)
Isshou Kiseki ni Sugattara by Neru, Nanawo Akari → https://youtu.be/vQVGe2Hx6KE?si=hv_n38SBJK3kiSgk
(And I also really really like Nanawo ... I'm such a big fan of her you have no idea 😭)
Just some songs I've been listening to recently 😌
will we see more about swi and singapore? 👀
They live in my mind 24/7 of course. I've been wanting to draw them (and also Mal + Liech,,) (unfortunately I'm really busy </3)
I was reading a book about Singapore recently 🤲 (it annoyed me but that's far from the point) I find that both Singa and Swi were in a dilemma of "Our land isn't rich in resources!!" (post-seperation of SG & MY; Singapore had relied on many of its resources from Malaysia (TBH they arguably still do 😂😂...)) → so they turn to finance to reach prosperity (>>> gross simplification, never quote me on this. Their rapid economic growth is more nuanced than this <<<)
So in a sense, their commitments & means are very similar 😌 but I'm sure Swi gets a little annoyed with Singa, because Swi's been in the game longer than him, and Singa's hidden, childish over-ethusiasm sort of irritates Swi (Singa can try to hide it and act nonchalant, but it slips through... I'm sure he especially gets excited around Swi, who he looks up to as a nation)
Oh bless them I love them hehehe swi & singa 😁😁
May I... may... may i request... eedddeeelllweeeiisssndbdnbfnxbcnx.x.x..w.e. ... nbn...vkvkkflrngmf...aiskg ....

RAASHHIIIIICHAANANNNNN I LOVE YOU SITS ON YOUR SHOULDER LIKE EVIL DEVIL
OMG ZEPHYCHAN HI !!! ILY !!!!!!! 😢😢😢💕💕💕💕💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 WHAT R U DOING ON MY SHOULDER ?!
I lo e the way u draw swi and honestly every other character too camt ever get enough of ur art.... runs away falls down stairs and breaks neck
WHAT THE HELL I LOVE UR ART TOO GFHFHHDHD 😢😢😢💖💖💖 angel ily ... don't break ur neck... (fixes it for you) I'm a little embarrassed bc i don't draw many completed illustrations of Swi 🤕 one day I'll render him fully ... I miss him (just thought abt him)
What do u use to draw... also brushes....?
THIS WAS SENT 19 DAYS AGO IM SO SORRY
I use Ibis paint X & my brushes change a lot... usually I use soft falcon pen bleed for basic sketching , flat watercolour opaque for flat colours / shadows whatever , and this one custom brush I use for rendering that I don't know where stole it from but I love it anyways 😭 (I'll post the QR codes give me a sec)
I LOVE HOW U DRAW!!! Forever a fan of ur drawings
WAAAA THANK YOU ANGEL 🥲🥲🥲 IM I MASSIVE FAN OF UR DRAWINGS & YUME TOO ACTUALLY 💯💯💯
How long have you been a Hetalia fan for?
Not very long! 2-ish years maybe. I always jump fandom to fandom
why did you start shipping asakiku? O: also, did you have any other "main" ship before them?
(and please tell your cat i said hi 🫶)
Some of my friends watched my gradual spiral into asakiku illness... Pray for them please 🙏 but before I used to like giripan & fruk ... Never was really insane over them like these idiots → 🇬🇧🇯🇵
(Though I was very adamant about calling Fruk BFFs more than romantic partners despite what I drew LOL)
I don't know why I started shipping them I just looked at them and they changed my brain chemistry forever. I'm not usually used to shipping characters outside Hetalia, but I saw then together via art and something shifted in the universe. Either way I can't go back to an existence where I don't see them together anymore. I'm too far gone. I guess I just really like how tone-downed they are most of the time (?) Two old men taking their time. Very therapeutic on my soul. I need that sort of guaranteed feeling that they'd be together forever in my heart...
I also think me breaking up with my ex whilst getting into Hetalia had a big part in it I don't know lmao
Also blond hair + black hair = an amazing ship ... 💞💞
(My cat meows back but probably because he's hungry 😭😭 I just fed him)
