I raised my hand against Karin. I'd kept myself in check until now, but I couldn't stop myself. How am I going to apologize to Grandpa? It hurts. I found you. I've been waiting for this moment... my bride. Bride? This spirit energy... A fox did this. What's your name? Um... It's Yuzu. Yuzu, I've been wanting to see you. What do you mean? But we've never met before. He's so beautiful. His jet black hair melts into the darkness, and his eyes are blood red. I'd never forget him. I'm Reiya. Kiryuin Reiya. I'm his bride? What is he saying? I've been looking for you, my bride. Um.. I'll walk you home. You shouldn't be out this late at night. Where's your home? What's wrong? You don't want to go home? Wow. Are you hurt anywhere else? Are you an ogre? Yes. Kiryuin. Even I've heard that name. They're a family of ogres and humans at the pinnacle of Japanese society. Why would someone like you help me? I told you. You're my bride. You don't believe me? I'm a bride? Like Karin? I can't be the bride of such a powerful demon. That's too convenient. Why me? Karin's a bride. She's not like you. Of course we cherish her. In that lonely house, I wished and dreamed so many times... for someone to love me. Being alone makes me so sad. Will you love me? Yes. I'll love you and you alone, my bride. He's a demon. Demons never betray their brides. Will he make my wish and dream come true? Maybe he'll love me.

Have you ever finished a lesson, watched anime, and thought...

"Wait... why isn't anyone talking like my textbook?" (・_・;)

Most textbooks teach desu/masu form first because it's polite and works almost everywhere. It's perfect for talking to teachers, coworkers, customers, or someone you've just met.

But when you're chatting with friends, people usually switch to dictionary form because it sounds much more natural.

For example:

食べます (tabemasu) → polite

食べる (taberu) → casual

Instead of saying:

"Tabemasu ka?"

A friend is much more likely to ask:

"Taberu?"

Same meaning. Just shorter and more relaxed (´꒳`)♡

Another thing is that in casual conversations, people often drop desu after i-adjectives.

おいしいです → polite

おいしい！ → casual

A slightly redrawn and edited version of the Dream Library stack (version 3 if you’re counting).

Since I first drew this, my first wish has come true with the final Book of Dust novel having come out (not what I expected, but I liked it)! Which would you most want if you could pick one?

(Currently part of a half price print sale on my shop!)

Disney + is insane, I wonder if it’s still going to be produced overseas like they are talking about. It’s for sure got to be a high quality production if Disney is going to have it though

I also wonder if it is on Disney + if it’s going to lead to a lot of people like entering the fandom? If I see one fight in 2 years about canon designs I’m going to lose it 😭

Another collaboration with my friend at StartDrift, he made the beautiful composition, and I worked on the character.
