Part 1 of a comic about Utsushi and my Hunter, Setsuna, sharing a tender moment.
Utsushi: "Something wrong, Ace?"
Setsuna: "No, it's nothing. It's just... Sorry if it looks bad. I'm a bit beat up right now. It's been pretty tough out there, lately. You know how it is. I'm supposed to be the best we have but-"
Setsuna has scars all over their body, visible as their yukata is slipping off.
Part 2.
Utsushi: "Hey, don't you worry about that! Come here."
Setsuna: "Huh...?"
Utsushi: "What kind of instructor would I be, let alone a hunter, if your battle scars bothered me? It shows your experience that I'm so proud of. All the wounds on the canvas of your body... Your wins, your losses. All of it makes up who you are."
Utsushi is holding and carrying Setsuna in his arms, nuzzling their neck.
"The person that I lo-"
Part 3.
Setsuna shoves Utsushi's face away.
Setsuna: "Okay, you can't just say that."
Utsushi: "What? Did I say something wrong?"
The last panel is them as chibis. Kit T. and Pup R. are in the back questioning the moment.
Setsuna: "It's embarassing."
Utsushi: "hehe"
battle scars. the first coherent artwork i made of my monhun ship, master utsushi x my hunter setsuna. π₯Ήππ at the time, setsuna didn't really even have a name/backstory yet, and I was trying to figure out who they were. all i knew is that they love utsushi a whole lot! #utsusetsu #mhart
