Drawings from last year (2024) or maybe even further back that I haven’t really had the opportunity to think of any stories for or simply were made with no intention – but practice.
The fun doesn’t start until the light’s go out.
Had this quirky idea that Eiden and Arslan had to go undercover because i was on a big delulu that I wanted to make a visual novel and the story was gonna be Arslan recruit’s Eiden into a special black ops type thing – but with ghosts! And this department store is haunted so they have to pretend to be workers for a day and ‘close up shop‘ but actually they just lock themselves in and start ghost hunting.
Self indulgent drawing.
This was more like I wanted to see Arslan in this types of clothes because you know those joggers are being used to go to the gym. But also can be used to go out and have a good time with the boyfriend. Plus he has to have inner city fashion! Can’t be seen outside of V2 looking plain. People actually seem to forget who he is once he’s out of uniform. Other’s do recognize him and usually ask for photos. Which Eiden immediately becomes the one to take the pic.
Eiden just kinda demands daily gym pics.
One way to keep Eiden happy is sending gym pics, Arslan doesn’t mind since he has sometimes 2 workouts a day on top of rowing practice. So more than once Arslan has to workout all by his lonesome. Which is not that bad knowing Eiden is just one pic away. Send him a shirtless pic if you really want something out of him. A power Arslan doesn’t abuse as often as he should.
I don’t even like Dragon Ball!!!
But he is THE O.G. Himbo and my whole platform is about literally this, so I kinda just did. In a weird fever manic episode dream. I sort of hate the drawing now, and want to archive it into the nether realms of the internet. I don’t know I thought I could learn something. I didn’t.
What are they doing after Eiden puts down the camera??
I love placing Eiden as the ‘player’ or viewer because Eiden is meant to be the ‘players character‘ sort of like the protags in the Persona games. You know Eiden is shirtless and maybe a little tipsy as he plays around with his camera always snapping pics of Arslan left and right. Arslan loves it – more content for the gram, and he’s used to having camera’s around him. But the setting is intimate even if Eiden said ‘flex ima take a pic’. Arslan can’t help but want something more.
With Eiden it’s different than any other boy Arslan has played around with. It’s the first time he’s had a boyfriend. So he takes it slow. But most of his other relationship with men have been one sided – as in Arslan wasn’t being reciprocated – or – Arslan has tried to make it work, but soon realized the only one trying was him. Arslan actually has a giant sex drive – which Eiden matches most of the time. It’s all about giving Eiden a little nudge. Otherwise he’s kinda oblivious to it. Arslan knows what buttons to push.
My shirt?! Don’t need one when I have red fire gauntlets that move mountains!
Actually the shirtless thing is necessary because the gauntlets produce so much heat it would burn off anyway.
If I ever make a game with these characters I want to try and have some outfits already planned for a costume’s shop. As you play you would get time coins or something like that. And then you could spend those coins at a costume shop that lets you equip the costume and give you special moves. Like this one has fire punches! Which is fun because The Lions of the Red Sea are aligned with the element of water.
How much longer babe? We’ve been running errands all morning. You know my one flaw is if I don’t eat I get hangry.
“How about we stop for burgers on the way back.?” Eiden would say as Arslan get’s out of the car and looks at him with a dissatisfied glare.
“You’re payin?” Arslan act’s coy.
“You still gotta ask that?” Eiden sighs, Arslan has seen his bank account. They buy clothes and expensive sporty shoes like every other week. They can’t really share a closet because of the size difference, but they’re clothes reside in the same closet close to one another. So that’s something.
“Course I’m payin’ big guy – now help me move these boxes from the back trunk it’s the last spur then we go for lunch.” Eiden beams.
Arslan sighs as he stands up and silently starts helping Eiden, complaining no more.
Sometimes Arslan party trick is lifting up his shirt and showing off his abs.
At first it was weird to Eiden how public Arslan is about his body – it’s not like Eiden doesn’t have abs as well. Arslan is just so massive people expect there to be abs when he lift’s his shirt.
Eiden isn’t jealous or anything – Arslan likes the attention.
Eiden looks like a bratty twink in comparison – which he sometimes is – but no one really asks him to show his abs unless he gets into a conversation with a stranger about exercise and the gym.
Even then everyone ooh’s and aaah’s at Arslan showing off his abs. People ask Eiden if he’s eating properly and drinking enough water.
Well that’s it for now folks! Hope you enjoy those mini stories here and there. I really don’t know where else to put this drawings and doing a blog post for each one feels a little ridiculous when the stories I’m able to extract from them are so tiny and fluffy paragraphs.
