He’s tired and he just wants to be, and he’s so exhausted from being constantly terrified of making a mistake or not being sunshine and roses.

James meeting Regulus Black, and for the first time there’s someone that doesn’t expect him to be perfect and kind constantly and it’s such a breath of fresh air.

It’s so nice, that he ends up swinging too far in the wrong direction. He snaps, and gossips and sends dirty looks and refuses to be the kind boy he was.

It costs him everything in the end. Scholarships, grades, friends. Him and Sirius have a big blow out fight where James is completely in the wrong, and Regulus picks Sirius when he’s forced to choose a side.

I did this one drawing once of Ariane taking revenge on an Eule unit since the Eules at her school were quite hostile, but I felt like the result was quite exploitative and violent for shock's sake, so I scrapped it. Instead, I made a sequence of Ariane being bullied and then the Eule being shown in a more human light, suffering for what she's forced to do. I would show it but the image inserts bugged because tumblr working is like boiling ice.

Point is, I try to refrain from depicting revenge or evil or even the death of faceless extras for no reason. Never liked it in movies, though I'm fine with it in games. Especially if they're nazis or something. I guess I'm slowly hating everything american so I try to get rid of this mindset of shooting people and blowing shit up. Fuck Hollywood and fuck Lord of the Rings and fuck Indiana Jones. I try to give everyone a face and a personality.
