hii @lilyhatesthenumber4 I sketched a scene from your fic Blue and Violet Bruises : ) !! (which everyone should absolutely read hehe)
and ok i did. not finish it oops & it's a little old atp im sorry, but I figured it'd be better if i just posted what I had already rather than letting it rot on my hard drive LOL
#four swords#four swords manga#rileyart#vio link#blue link#blue & vio#fs comic#if i had a nickel for every Lily i knew that wrote Four Swords fics... I'd have two nickels LMAO#ok but anyway ik I've talked abt it a bit elsewhere but I really adore the bath scene in this fic#the way Vio so plainly asks if Blue needs help. and Blue's reluctant admission#it's so intimate and vulnerable but so natural at the same time#I am always a sucker for platonic intimacy it's my greatest weakness#ok i need to talk about their fucked up psyche cuz it's kind of my favorite thing and wow I really haven't thought abt the theme 4evr#“I just got more messed up. I wanted you to hit me Blue. That is freaked. Yeah I’m a freak."#“I still wanted you to punch me. I wanted to know that the old Blue was still in there.”#<- I've always been attached to the idea that Blue and Vio see themselves as the worst sides of Link.#Blue sees himself as violent and cruel. Vio sees himself as manipulative and dishonest#and there's a shared solidarity in their willingness to do “bad things” despite their status as a hero#and maybe there's even a twisted sense of pride they have in that. they carry the shame so Green and Red don't have to#anyway. I think Vio baits Blue to hitting him because he craves the pain as self-punishment. it feels good to “get what he deserves”(smiles#ok srry idk if these tags make any sense or if im juss crazy but these were some of my thoughts while reading LOL#anyway i love this duo they mean so much 2 me......
