a celebration at the after party 🎊💐🎀🌙

i thought i couldn't do anything,

Tbh most interesting thing for me though is that it’s partially based off one of the really early pixiv doodles that wasn’t in the main dj chapters (linked below), so that was a pleasant surprise. Last line of the ch was kinda ominous lol but I’m looking forward to future chapters as alwaysss

as long as you smile and nod, people are satisfied. it’s just to show that you are nice and there with good intentions. we’re small in a big world and have to rely on other people to be decent to us. so we do our little human dance to each other to say, “i’m not here to hurt you. here’s something we have in common, like the weather or sports or itchy sweaters, so we both know we’re on the same team. we both agree on a basic fact, like that it is rainy or that being itchy is uncomfortable, and this proves we can get along. i’m being light-hearted and non-threatening right now.”

small talk isn’t to get to know a person. it’s just a greeting to affirm you’re buddies in the universe.
