The new Free! The Final Stroke movie has been announced! I already know that I’ll be moved and cry seeing it. So what better time than mermay to go back to drawing my beloved children? These days I’m doing the rewatch of the entire series and I missed Haru and Rin so much!
Even in the midst of pandemic, they found a way to gather their nearest and dearest for a cozy outdoor ceremony.
I imagine thisis the song that Makoto sings to Sousuke who … kinda just stands there (he hates the song, but damn, does he love that giant teddy bear singing).
Okay guys, so you know how Rin has a thing about the pant sleeve rolled up with the ankle bracket exposed?
Let me explain to you guys a thing I happen to know a bit about. *cough*
In the gay men’s club scene (certainly in Australia and America), guys use different attributes (like bracelets) to indicate their preferred ‘position’. Like back in the 70’s when men would use one pierced ear to indicate homosexuality— guys now use nail polish on one hand, but also ankle and wrist bracelets to indicate their sexuality and their preferred position.
As opposed to just having a bracelet, if you roll your sleeve up to expose it it shows that you want other men to notice it, and thus you are wearing it deliberately.
Generally — Right is Bottom, Left is Top.
So Rin Really does prefer the bottom. (at least with Sousuke in the second pic, I guess when he clubbin’ he wants to be the top)
some more shots of our house becoming more ‘normal,’ this time with my office. first we have my office in, well, chaos, which it still mostly is. my cat Goma decided, when i was setting up my computer, that it was more important for him to lay on the power bar than for me to plug in 90 cords, so i took a photo of him instead. once my desk was set, the cats settled in beside me for a little. i’m purposefully leaving that space under the shelf empty so the cats can crawl under it if they’d like. they like small spaces.
the last photo is most of my bookshelves, temporarily filled with all my stuff. ofc got the Sailor Moon collectables, under that is some Utena and Free! opposite that shelf is my G1 MLPs, the G1 reprints (which sadly are not as cute as the originals), and jars of Blind Bag FIM ponies. under that? Pokemon, of course. i need to get a new method for organizing them (possibly more binders…), and then that shelf will look much better. the bottom shelf is just manga and other books.
i have plans to make a foam-core display riser for my Sailor Moon gasha items, so that i can display more of them in less space, so hopefully that’ll happen soon and i can post a DIY for it! if it goes well, i’ll probably make another for my G1 MLPs, so you can actually see the second row of them.
we’re taking the house organizing one day at a time, so we don’t get overwhelmed. hopefully we’ll have more photos to share later in the week!
