Celes Chere in the Flesh

Oh my God. Why does this make me want to cry?

Sabin loves banana bread 🍌 🍞 ❤️

Ngl, making this video las left me with a hankering to go bake some banana bread. The secret weapon is adding chocolate chips to the batter, yum

The audio is not mine. Google “banana bread at work” to see the original meme from 4+ years ago. I came across it recently and couldn’t stop thinking about it.

Some of the frames went by really fast so allow me to repost a few of them here. I tried to draw and color them as quick as possible and not worry about neatness. I’m always slowing down to make things “perfect” so with this I tried to do the opposite.

My favorite is Terra descending from the heavens like a goddess to bestow banana bread upon the faithful ✨

this is perfect in every way, thanks.

continuing my fun theorizing "what if Celes' magical infusions left her with eyes that always glowed"

ive listened to too many ff6 arranges this is the result

Celes

+Closeups as always

Another old, this time unfinished comic from a year ago. The art is dated but I still adore the colors. I was trying to encapsulate the utter hopelessness and helplessness I felt at the start of the World of Ruin that I imagine Celes herself also felt. It all seemed so desperate, like you're running on autopilot, simply witnessing this new twisted world. A really impactful atmosphere, to say the least. The comic was going to span another few pages and take a sadder turn, but I never got around to it. I'll certainly get around to it eventually since I still like the idea.

It was stressful. It hurt beyond measure. I woke up alone, and Cid was gone before I knew it. Being alone was terrifying.

My take on Setzer's usual amount of clothes (needs more layers still) vs the 'emergency repairs' look

Harley & Ivy

This is why I love them!

Harley is an abuse survivor of course she’d wreck this dude!!!

Can I just say how much I love the implications here? Harley and Ivy are known public figures. People know who they are, and recognize them. And this kid knows that, despite being violent criminals, they’re safe enough to go to for protection. Ivy is dead certain that the Batfamily will be okay with them intervening to protect a kid. That has some intersting implications - either she knows damn well where the lines lie and that this is overriding enough to get her a pass, or (more likely, given the first bit) this has come up before.

one of my favorite tropes is villains acting heroically not because the other villain is a threat to them or because it benefits them, but because they have standards

^^^ That’s the good shit right there

Always reblog protector Harley and Ivy

I think this illustrates that there is sometimes a separation between the types of villains. There are some villains who have little to no redeeming qualities like Joker and then you have what’s shown in this panel. Two of the most infamous villains with the mindset of, “Wait a minute! No, you don’t hurt children! They’re off limits!”

This (official) story is in the anthology series Batman: Black and White. Fourth volume of the series, third issue, printed 2013. Written by Paul Dini himself and drawn by Stephane Roux.

and it has an even happier ending!

I love this????

Thanks for adding the ending!

fuck, now I’m crying

Oh look. It’s MY Batman. The real Batman, not the hypermasculine ultraviolent for the sake of ultraviolence asshole that keeps popping up in popular media.

The Batman who held Ace’s hand. The Batman who keeps trying to get his rogue’s gallery treatment. The Batman who hands low-tier thugs a Wayne Enterprises business card and says “call them about a job.” The Batman who isn’t black and white, the Batman who recognizes even “bad” people can do “good” things. The Batman who genuinely cares about people, not just punishment.
