Thought The Hands Were Fun So I Drew Jinx

September 26th

the homophobic teenage boys in the DN fandom are so weird and annoying lmfao. they rage about light not being canonly gay but he basically is. did the creator actually say the word gay? no, but Ohba doesn’t actually have to say the word gay, not to mention obvious censorship especially at the time DN was actually written.

the manga clearly states and consistently stresses that light yagami does not like women, that he has no interest in women. this is not something shown only after he creates the personality of Kira. it is revealed that even before light picked up the DN, he consistently rejected girls and made the excuse that he would not date until college. while he is Kira, he consistently manipulates various women who show interest in him, while either internally or outright rejecting them.

Light also consistently shows more interest in male characters throughout the manga, even before he obtains the DN. he shows more interest in Mikami vs Takada despite them both being fairly equal in terms of intellect and drive. even before he obtains the DN, while with male highschool friends, he asks one to send him a New Year’s card and the friend replies, “sorry, I only send them to girls.” Misa even outright accuses L and Light of being gay. this would obviously suggest the author is very much aware of what they are writing and implying. did Ohba say light was gay? no. but Ohba DID say that light was incapable of loving women, while also stating that light was very much capable of experiencing love and other human emotions. cope <3

Sundry Sunday

I'm beginning to realize how many of these Sundry Sunday posts are just me chatting about vocab words that I looked up because they're a little unfamiliar, even when the make sense in context.

What is an ague?

An acute or high fever, or a disease characterized by one, especially when its reoccuring. (Thanks OED) Think malaria, apparently.

Oupires

Just a reminder that you can basically read this as "vampire". Oupire is more of a Slavic-folklore specific term, and is the origin of the english word vampire. Also, upior is the term to search if you'd like to do some reading. Some of the remedies have proved especially interesting to me. If you can read Polish, there's also a book titled Upiór that is supposedly a very good work on the subject. Unfortunately, I do not know a bit of Polish and cannot find it in any language I have any degree of confidence in.

Beach fit for today :3

"I am undone without you."

I finally read the book.

I take commissions and ready to draw art of your favorite character (the locked tomb, tv series, games, manga, anime series, etc). I also could draw your own OC.

If anyone are interested please send me a DM.
