» AQUELES, CUJO O PODER CONDENA — capa teste
⟅16.05.2024 — eu disse que ia me afastar mais, só que na minha condição de agora, eu fico louco sem editar :) queria uma capa que me passasse a ideia de uma união de duas capas minhas: a white blood e um lugar para voltar que são minhas capas favoritas de dgm (das que fiz recentemente). Minha ideia era que ia ser uma com o Link e Allen ou o Johnny e Allen porém é tão escasso as imagens deles no pin, então desisti da ideia (por agora) e fiz yullen, é sobre isso :D essa capa foi bem engraçada de fazer pq eu estava sem internet e caçei até o fundo da minha galeria pra achar outras imagens deles, um desafio. ficou um resultado que ok, vou testar coisas novas. Eu nem conhecia essa música, pensei nela depois que ouvi e fui ver a tradução e juntando com esse título, achei que super combina e vai assim, ficou biutifu <3 inté!
» WHITE BLOOD — capa teste
⟅13.02.2024 — assim, talvez, muito muito muito provavelmente eu tava MORRENDO de vontade de editar com eles (pra quem não reparou, é o ship que me fez voltar a editar de novo: os meus bebês queridos, Yullen <3) e assim, passei três horas pra editar essa capa ( fora todos os perrengues de energia que tive, que nao foram poucos) e o tanto que amei ela não tem como escrever (por mais que tenha odiado ela no começo, confesso). Yullen é um dos meus casais mais amados de dgm, isso ou talvez seja a minha dependência emocional nos dois por me identificar demais :) e eu demorei tanto pra editar com eles de novo, como eu deixei de fazer o que mais amo na minha vida de capista? :') agora uma pergunta: o que raios é essa capa?? Ela é uma capa mesclada que eu não entendi exatamente onde se enquadra... Mas enfim, fiz a capa com meu casal e ta ótimo. té mais.
Why hello there everyone it’s been awhile … My excuse is good this time.. I GOT A TABLE AT OTAKUTHON!!!!! It’s one of the biggest anime conventions in canada and I got a table.... I’m freaking out and not ready ahaha especially since I leave for a while month this summer… I’m fucked Anyways I’m making some new prints and I decided I wanted to draw the d. Gray man boys I’m just not sure which one I like more. I kind of like the simple background one but idk. What do you guys thing?
My God Kanda Yuu is gorgeous and so much fun to draw. I’m really enjoying the new updates from D.gray man- I feel like a lot of questions are finally being answered- although ill be honest I’m terrified that Lavi is dead or will be killed :/
my desperate craving for d gray man content has become near unbearable, so it may be time for me to take matters into my own hands. that being said. I have no idea what to write about.
so if anyone sees this and has any suggestions or prompt ideas, please let me know!
that being said, I’m not the biggest fan of modern no power aus (unless they’re funny enough). But I do welcome crossover ideas!
personally, I’m not the biggest fan of modern aus (the more distance from real life the better lmao), but in particular the significant traumas of the characters don’t always translate well (which… maybe the point actually). But seeing how the author does is always interesting! that said, here’s how the closest I can think of for a dgm modern au:
Allen: if you cut out the whole past self and possession situation, up until the Order, it’s pretty one to one. As a child, he had a limb difference and was trafficked. He met Mana and Allen the dog, the dog died, the place he was trafficked to burns(? maybe attacked and he was spared out of pity?) Due to the trauma of the incident, Mana gets worse, thinks Allen is Allen the dog and then they live on the streets until Mana’s death. Occasionally Mana mistakes him for Nea to keep that aspect of the trauma. Allen is attacked shortly after, survives, and is eventually taken in by Cross (and his debts). He gets a few stalkers or already has them and finds out later.
Lenalee: once again, the fighting is a bit tricky for a plain old modern au, but I can make some things work! After her parents died in an attack, she was adopted out of China into England to an abusive family. Eventually Komui was able to get custody of her… I’m unsure/doubtful he would actually be able to do this with the systems in place, so maybe foster care would work better?
Kanda: A cult??? I guess? And Alma died setting a fire maybe? Unless you want unethical government experiments in your modern au!
Lavi: … I don’t know about this one. A very emotionally distant family that shamed any expression of emotion or connection as weakness? But it doesn’t have quite the same implications, I think.
Miranda: Pretty easy! She’s still miserable and can’t keep a job. Poor Miranda.
Alistar: A bigoted, isolated small town? Very tough on this one. Maybe such a small town that superstition still runs strong and he was run out of town during a series of disappearances (actually caused by his girlfriend, Eliade).
Timothy: Pretty much the same. Abusive father who was eventually jailed for thieving, the orphanage where he lived had money trouble and he started stealing himself. Not sure where the trauma from the orphanage being attacked could fit in.
Mana: A crime family/mafia?? His brother (for reasons we aren’t sure of yet) went on a rampage and managed to take out most of the family, forcing Mana to kill him.
Link: he and his siblings/friends from the streets are adopted by a corrupt government official.
I haven’t read the alma karma arc recently, so I could be entirely off base, but does anyone else think that the second exorcist experiments might have been trying to recreate what happened with past!allen? like I don’t remember if there was a given reason/inspiration beyond “need more soldiers, why not revive old ones,” but the basics seem rather similar to me.
a person is revived after being killed (or as good as) in the body of a child with no concrete memory of who they were before (or so I assume in allen's case but that could have happened later).
injuries are unnaturally healed by using the helix of life—in the second exorcists’ case by taking it from their future/lifespan and for allen using someone else’s life.
I think the timeline might match up, too. I don’t know exactly how old allen starts out as, but we do know that present!lavi is older by like 3 years. I think allen looked between 5-8 (terrible at estimating…), so if we go short, that’s ~8 years for the final result to be revealed to apocryphos. And kanda’s been alive for 9 years chronologically, which would put allen’s age at like 6-7. That seems like adequate time to get weird fantasy sci-fi experiments up and running.
and with the way apocryphos was looking at that light cocoon allen was in, I wouldn’t be surprised if he took some inspiration, one way or another.
This is my first proper post (that is my own, but I don’t own the picture) <3 Did some tags as well :)
