famiresu iko 18 y/o satomi holding up de-aged kyouji. there are carp flags in the background

famiresu iko sequencial sketchpage. 1: de-aged kyouji eating a hamburger with text pointing at him: "children's day de-aging magic" someone from off-screen: "aww, cute!" 2: satomi, young kyouji, mana, and maruyama are sitting at a restraunt table. mana: "is this your nephew, okapi?" satomi: "ah, not exactly... mana: "how old are you, kyouji-chan?" kyouji: "i turned 9 today." mana: "so big! take good care of our okapi the rest of golden week, okay?" kyouji: "roger." 3: text: [later] kyouji is tugging on satomi's sleeve and pointing. kyouji: "ah, okapi-san. look at that one!" 4: satomi is shocked, then looks down at kyouji is embarrassment from the nickname. kyouji, from off screen: "okapi, you ain't lookin'..."

i know I should probably wait to post this for kyouji's birthday, but I drew the first image in december and by may i'll most likely have more parts to this anyway 🤷

my ocs Taku and Tsuki, in black and white screentone.

screentone practice
#hellohalart #oc #BL

drawing of two original characters. The man on the left is Yutsuki; he has black hair in an undercut, with the fringe swooping over his right eye. He's wearing a black hoodie. The man on the right is Takuichi; he has long, messy, dark blue hair and blue eyes with red flecks. He's wearing a turtleneck and sweater vest. The two are chest to chest, with Yutsuki's arms around Takuichi's shoulders. Both are looking at the viewer disapprovingly.

another doodle because i wanted to say more basic info

Yutsuki (L) is younger, and is the Guide. Takuichi (R) is older and is the Esper (Sentinel)
Yutsuki calls Takuichi "Taku-san" (& sometimes shortened to Takksan); Takuichi calls Yutsuki "Tsuki"
(ship name is TakuTsuki)

Takuichi is holding Yutsuki around the shoulders from behind, and he is looking at the viewer.

hello! today i would like to introduce some OCs i've been working on.

This is Takuichi (L) and Yutsuki (R). they are guideverse ocs set in a post-apoc/sci-fantasy japan. i'm still getting used to them and they are still getting used to each other so treat them kindly 🙇
