Tribius

Basic: this is my and only my delusion, if your interpretations, opinions, visions and so on differ - lord be with you, all the best to you, I'm here about myself, about my own.

aslo, i use she/her to Ryuga. deal with it.

1: old.

1. Moon/Sun 2. Silhouettes

I remember some people were surprised at the choice of roles where Ginga is the moon and Ryuga is the sun, but God knows, I don't see them in the opposite direction: I can't call a guy whose name literally translates as "galaxy (silver river)" the "sun", just as I can't call someone with all this volcanic-fiery flare the "moon".

Ginga is the warm moon of a pleasant summer night, and Ryuga is the sun that will kill you and dry your corpse somewhere in the desert.

ngl, these things post factum linked to one song from the playlist dedicated to them: Chancellor G. - Song of the Dead Valley

the moon for the living is the sun to the dead… the sorrow to the living is joy to the dead…

specifically these lines The whole song is very much about them, but these particular moments are very closely related (+ pay attention to the image of the stars)

3. Blue grass

It's base fully on the poses, facial expressions, and also on the reasons for the existence of this art, because everything was built around the song: The Mill - Blue Grass

full text + translation: here

Because the blue grass is always waiting, come to me, resistance, my friend, is useless, believe me, useless – forgive me.

It would be easier to say that the Blue Grass in the context of art specifically is l*ve. The blue grass that grows through, that you can't stop, that crushes iron and steel, and you won't be able to resist it. Sorry.

I remembered these artworks for one simple reason: they are a kind of "feeling the ground," because what I learned to depict in them I continue to incorporate into my current work, so it's important to mention the "roots."

2: *you're here*

1. Eclipse (WIP or draft, I haven't decided yet, but I'll come back to this topic) 2. The kiss

We return to the theme of the moon and the sun, as well as the eclipse, because the eclipse is the most obvious symbol of solar-lunar unity. This happens rarely, but it's an event every time - does it remind you of anything?

There are two more points about the "the Kiss": their poses and this "star".

Poses: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING - is the gesture of "disbelief"

This has a biblical context, but we dismiss it, leaving the essence - THE GESTURE MEANS DISBELIEF, UNCERTAINTY. ("<...> and place my hand in His side, I will never believe" (The Gospel of John, 20:25). It is important to pay attention to how exactly Ginga holds Ryuga: by the hand, forcing her to put her fingers in, and by the neck - without letting her pull away - PROVES, forces her to believe.

This star in Ryuga's hands is a symbol of their feelings for each other, which was... here, here, here and at the most recent work here.

Putting our backs in danger: trust and betrayal at the same time, depending on whose perspective we look at and how we interpret it: you show that you are ready to take a blow, or you strike because what you feel seems to you personally like a betrayal of everything that happened between you.

3. Forbidden

This is the beginning of the theme that for Ryuga, what is happening is betrayal and something that should not be. Therefore, someone else's heart (in the most literal sense) is not something that should be in her hands, even if it was given to voluntarily (looking for a star on the art).

The rib cosmos is a metaphor for immensity and, probably, inaccessibility, however (if it has touched you) - unstoppability and all-consuming.

4. One more WIP

I will definitely return to this work someday, because the basic idea is there, it remains to put it into a clear, working plot, without having to make an additional postscript. Everything that I wrote is here: feelings (a star) and traces of these feelings on the body (we're making a note).

that's why I haven't posted it yet: because contextually it's RyuGin, but it need a clear "shell".

5. About the lost moment

According to the canon of manga, Ryuga is a long-lived one, but art exists without reference to anime or manga, it's more about the moment of agony from the realization of what is happening. The image of Ginga as a cherub is more connected with the role of cherubs, with enlightenment (as well as the light falling here lol)/

The realization came - but too, too late.

6. Speak, I beg you, speak; if not, I will lose my way.

Let's go through the points: - marks on the body from feelings - ginga as something that has probably been gone for a long time - poses

I usually draw this scar on Ryuga's collarbone differently, but here it is depicted like this intentionally - a painful realization (a scar remains) of what happened a long time ago (scar is old + the shape of a star). However, it remained and did not pass - and it will not pass.

To draw Ginga contextually dead is a bit of my own delusion, which was STRONGLY influenced by the work that Takafumi-sensei published on his patreon. I won't give any more information about this, but yes, it has left an imprint on my own perception of Ryuga and Ginga's relationship, and now it's leaking out. For the same reason, Ginga is impersonal here and (partly) at work above.

A head wound is a painful realization (literally, the personification of "hit in the head"). The position of the wing (how it covers Ryuga) is a reference/continuation of an old theme with them, when Ginga notices the difference between how Ryuga looks at him and how she looks at the others. Therefore, this is "their moment," which, as he knows, should not be shown to others.

Speak, I beg you, speak; if not, I will lose my way.

She's holding him. She remembers him.

It is also important to mention that they are naked (here in a couple of other works) not because of any erotic overtones, but because nudity is the most obvious image of frankness and openness, which already makes half the sense.

I really love this doomed and contradictory part that have these two: the long-lived x the mortal, and the image of that mortal will be seen again after long time, or the one who disappeared x the one who remained alive, carrying the memory of the disappeared one.
