Description
"This child knows not what he is. And there is a small part of me that wants to hunt down the boogieman and drag him from whatever closet he is lurking in and force him to pay for this causal cruel oversight. This wanton act of neglect that has left his child trembling in the darkness as his Curse awakens. The walls crack and secrete luminescent gelatinous orbs. Eyes. Staring at him from across dimensions. I curse, and rip his sleeve away. Let’s get this over with. Let’s show this boy what he truly is.Shit. Too fast. He is not ready. He cringes away from what I’ve revealed, unwilling to believe that thing is a part of him. But the boy doesn’t scream, and a grudging sliver of admiration works its way under my skin. It roots, and blooms outwards into the barest hint of compassion. Empathy. So young, to be faced with such horrors. Truly desperate to have to put his trust in me. He needs guidance, I know. But first...how does one such as myself comfort a child?
I am, for the first time, wholly and spectacularly out of my depth."
for , featuring some truly spectacular characters.

With the way you write you should seriously write a book. I mean it. Also it's kinda creepy how well characters. When I first read it I thought Galie had to have written it because I know I didn't and I didn't think anyone but her could have gotten it so right.
Also the the picture is amazing. Everything from the soft flowing curtains to the eyes that look like they're literally breaking threw from another dimension. There's a certian depth to it all that makes it feel like you're there being sucked in.

That was the most awesome thing I have ever read ._. and to say it in Makai's voice as I read. . . trembled eagerly with every word that followed. . . .
Your writing. . . . So like the character, precise yet malice, sophisticated yet even in it, so confused. . . I do believe you obsess this character so much you portray him better in stories then I ever could. And for that, I tip my hat to you.

I split it off, writing and art separately- as it should be appreciated separately.
No words that I can say would truly come across what I thought when I saw this- not moments ago (for once) I may have given the words to a paint a picture, but only a master would interpret so perfectly. Exactly as I thought. . . . Brilliant.
What else can I possibly say? Admittedly my eye travels more to the story then the image. . . It's so captivating. But without my request of image, there would be no story. You took to the scene so perfectly, I can't find much to say. . . the poses are perfect. Mike trying so hard to free himself of the room while Makai inquires but is even lost when he realizes he doesn't know what he should do.
The eyes and veins on the walls, just . . . o.o I would have never thought of such depiction until I saw this. . . glowing green in the darkness to ensure they can find you anywhere. . . but are attached by veins with normality you ponder if they are at all truly evil. . . .

oh, thank you so much! i'm glad you were okay with the story addition, it kind of popped into my head throughout the sketching. he seems to be quite an interesting character to write for. you've styled him really well...formality and crudeness both fit to varying degrees. love characters with that kind of duality!
so glad this worked out the way you hoped, your requests are always entertaining. with regards to the eyes, glowing things are infinitely more creepy. especially when they insist on bursting from your walls/arm and holding staring contests at strange hours.

Hooray for inspiration within inspiration! I aim to please, even if I do it accidentally XD
Always a pleasure to give them ^ ^' *since I've been lacking ability to do anything lately* And indeed, though it's also very rude of them- I mean, what if he was getting dressed?! Honestly, you eyeballs >>
