Since pre-orders for the Shiratorizawa Zine are closed, here is my full entry featuring my favourite swan: Yamagata Hayato (and his daily quest to retrieve his phone)
First pic to be read clockwise and second one from left to right.
Kenma is talking to people and Kuroo is a proud single parent (because Yaku already has a oversized baby to look after……it’s Lev)
I have always liked to draw this kind of simple comics but somehow I always want to do more beautiful and more realistic and more everything ( but I can’t because you need skills :c ). Maybe I should just draw comics sometimes and enjoy what I can do when I’m not trying to level up on art 😛
my boyfriend and I sometimes struggle to be on the same page when it comes to comforting- often i just want to vent and don’t need advice, whereas validation confuses him and he wants a plan of action
to counter this, we’ve come up with a system where we ask: “do you want advice, empathy, both or neither?”
if it’s just advice, i know to go straight to action points and not spend time on fluffy words
if it’s just empathy, he knows i want to be reassured and comforted and that’s all
if it’s both, it’s time for advice that recognises how hard the situation is and is perhaps gentler in nature
if it’s neither, just a hug is really good
i recommend trying to use this in your lives! it makes sure you’re giving and getting what you need, and reduces the risk of resentment or similar
