This drawing with Moonie and a new character, I won't say anything yet about the new one charecter 🫣🤫

Below template??? Reference?? Idk

Love this ask so much that I just might code/write it - maybe just for fun if it doesn't go into the actual IF.

Tobin

Played both soccer and basketball in middle school. With their hand-eye-coordination and awareness of their body, they really could play anything they put their mind to.

Were considering playing soccer in high school, because they love the dynamics and the excitement of playing in a team, the roar of the crowd. But gave it up to concentrate on tennis.

Playing again fills them with nostalgia, reminding them what they loved about the game as a kid.

Just like on the tennis court, Tobin moves with an easy, agile grace and is a natural leader.

Attacking midfielder. Intelligent, tactical, and tireless. Orchestrates both attack and defense; equally comfortable shooting from distance or sliding an inch perfect throughball.

After the game, coach unabashedly tries to poach them. “Anytime you get fed up with tennis, you have my number.”

Rayyan

Only other sport they've done is fencing, because their father is obsessed; they've always known that tennis is their true calling.

Left back. What they lack in skill, they make up for in ferocious intensity and a never-say-die attitude. Extremely competitive, and will not give up even when trailing 0-4. "You never know?! We might just score one goal per minute!"

Willing to throw themselves at the ball (or the opponent) in last-ditch flying dives. While Tobin leads most of the attack & overall play, Rayyan is king of the back 4, rock solid in defense.

Even though tennis is a non-contact sport, they somehow immediately take to tackling/fouling opponents as though they’d been trained. Intimidation level is a solid 12/10, able to stare down rampaging attackers and singlehandedly reduce them to a floundering mess.

Coach is quite terrified of them, tbh. Gingerly asks if they’ve ever considered football. As in, American football.

Deepal

Has played a bit of soccer recreationally, when growing up in India - with friends, family etc.

Right winger. Blistering speed, creative, with improvisional flair and a knack for the unpredictable. Slippery like an eel. Very deadly down the wing. Not above cracking a joke as distraction.

Jacks

Goalie. Calm, unflappable.

Chose this position because they're happy with a slightly lower level of baseline ‘excitement’; happy to watch the action from afar, sometimes doing a little celebratory jig from the other end, when the team scores.

Emerson

Right back. Rayyan’s terrifying twin in defense. Full of bluster and hot air and physicality. Unlike Rayyan, though, they’re really hopeless in terms of skill – sometimes mistiming their sliding tackles, or tripping over themselves. Most likely to faceplant in an overly enthusiastic tackling attempt.

Sometimes, Rayyan half-feels like throttling Emerson, instead of the opponent, constantly shouting “SAFETY FIRST,” and “JUST CLEAR IT WHY DON’T YOU”.

Greatest strength = trash-talking the team until they get pissed and fumble the ball, at which point Emerson will swoop in to snatch the ball away. Fond of hacking the ball far up-field in hail-mary attempts.

Max

Center-forward/striker. Playful, ingenious, with a telepathic connection with Deepal, who feeds them incisive passes in the penalty area.

Is a little short, though, and is terrible at taking corners; Constantly tackled, causing Rayyan to be up-in-arms and ready to kill any opponent defender who so much as lays a finger on them.

Akimi

Defensive midfielder; Quiet, no-frills, gets the job done. Fluid and versatile, works well with Tobin.

Not particularly talented, but is pretty sensible (keeps their head in a scuffle, always there to separate Rayyan or Emerson when they butt up against an opposing player)

Sam (bonus)

Has absolutely brilliant moments as a center forward/false nine. Can score with every part of their body, including knee, nose, stomach, etc. with an uncanny ability to shrug off their defenders and read incoming passes.

Sam dribbling through the defense is truly a sight to behold. However, they also have their moments of complete comedic gaffes - especially when they lose concentration/start daydreaming or chatting with opposing players/spot a funny sign in the crowd.

G (bonus)

A scarily good coach/analyst.

This one got long XD the other 3 are under the cut c:

Hydrangea– What’s something about you only s/i understands? What do only you understand about s/i?

Majima is settled on the middle seat of the overstuffed couch, arms stretched across the back. Kimi is flopped to his side, head resting on the arm, and legs across his lap.

He grins, about to answer, before sputtering indignantly as her bare toes press into his cheek, cutting off whatever he was going to say.

"Liar."

"Ya didn' let me say anything!" 

She grins at his indignation, "Didn't have to, I know you. Whatever you were gonna say was gonna be complete bull so you could avoid anything resembling real vulnerability."

He glares flatly down at her, but her grin never wavers.

Her face softens as she begins to answer on his behalf, "we both share this sort of… We have what most people would consider odd feelings, about our respective appearances."

He winces, "Do ya have ta go there?"

"Shush. Anyway. Neither of us is exactly… happy. With our appearance. Or at least parts of it. We have things we do like, and are proud of, though that can fluctuate. But there is plenty we don't like as well. To put it gently. And yet, we're both very appearance driven people."

She shifts, turning to settle into his side, "Its kind of hard to explain? Or maybe that's just me? But we both like to put in a lot of effort, even knowing that because of how we feel, we'll probably end up let down. I don't think a lot of people quite get that... That we're not being vain, but trying to mask, to hide, the things we can't stand," she glances up at Majima, "Or put them out on display as a weird sort of act of rebellion."

She glances up at Majima, who is pointedly looking across the room.

Stifling a giggle, she shares in a conspiratorial whisper, “He doesn’t really do vulnerability.”

He gives an indignant “Oi!” and she cackles as he playfully shoves her into the floor.

Some messy watercolor illustrations of the four Gods from Kingdoms of Seasons. I did back in April. They were originally going to go with the book project I did, which ended up being Maps from Kingdoms of Seasons.

In order they are: Akimi - Goddess of autumn and honor, creator of the Seiki

Natsumi - Goddess of summer and industry, creator of the Hachitsu

Fuyumi - God of winter and loyalty, creator of the Kameshi
