as i write this i am just shy of my next hundred but i was too lazy to edit the graphic& that’s a moot point anyway — the sentiments are still very much the same. maybe it has something to do with the fact that most people watched inuyasha at least on-and-off on adult swim when they were younger, or that, regardless of any nostalgia, most people can recognize the obscene attractiveness that is sesshōmaru. and maybe it also has something to do with the fact that i’ve been, collectively, on this ( at times, god forsaken ) website a little over three years ( and playing this level headed, godly jackass for just under that amount of time ). either way, somehow, even if by mere luck ( which i am more than happy to accept! ) i’ve managed to hit a huge milestone in a week.and during that time, i’ve rekindled in-character relationships with this muse with people i’ve known for quite some time, and had the absolute pleasure of meeting new people, and catching glimpses of what other kinds of relationships can be forged. i’m excited, to say the least, to see where his development will go from here. unless you were with me during my first incarnation of this blog ( silverhairedinu ), you aren’t aware of how much growth he’s gone through.
not so much as a character, but how much more maturely i play him now, than i did then, simply because i am a better writer now, and more mature in said writing, thus making me capable of portraying him so much more accurately while adding in my own conceptions as to how he is as a character, without diluting what we already know. despite my time away from him, my adoration for this ( often difficult, domineering, & pretentious ) old dog hasn’t waned. if anything, it’s grown, since i seem to understand how to better convey his mannerisms, and internal/external expressions better, each time i come back.
of course, none of that would be possible without you guys. although graphic design is a big passion of mine, so is writing for leisure, and i wouldn’t love it nearly as much without everyone i have the privilege to interact with, be it in script form, or para, or the like. so, as always, thank you being awesome & for being so passionate about your own muses. it’s an inspiration, truly, and one i could not do without!
