you've eaten more than your fill at this grand feast.
you sigh contently.
you enjoyed yourself thoroughly, but are quite satisfied now that you're done.

______SUDDENLY, _______

just as you think you've finished, the phantom presence reaches out to you once more...
"come!"
it ushers you,
"follow me through the wine cellar door, so that we may indulge ourselves once more..."

will you join us?

the cellar.


* CREEAAAK *


the cellar door opens to reveal a long, winding staircase that descends in a spiral to depths unknown.
bottles of the finest vintage line the walls.
"plenty more awaits,"
the voice reassures you...
...ushering you to continue, and
follow it in.


the cellar.


after traipsing down a seemingly infinite number of stairs, you finally reach the cellar's main stores.

shall you imbibe this drink?

a seemingly infinite number of bottles containing hues of deep red and sparkling white line the walls, filling up every nook and cranny...
...but is it truly wine that they contain?
...or instead, could it be a liquor of sinister nature?
there's only one way to find out, you suppose.


If men were to be likened to wine, then this would be my finest collection.
(basically; this is a list of people & characters I've had unhealthy obsessions and/or simped for.)

But then again, I said what I said.
And I'm right about it.
So also, you're welcome.😍


"erm, what the sigma?" the disembodied voices grumble,
"that was weird. that was HORRIBLE! AVERT YOUR EYES!!
let's get the heck out of here."

Nothing to see here yet. :(

an in-depth look at my fashion and cosplay pieces

Text

the study.


you enter, expecting to find a small and stuffy workspace...

...only to find yourself surprised, surrounded by sprawling shelves filled with well-loved books.

an intimidating wooden desk stands center.
you shrink away from it instinctively,
feeling as if your every movement is being watched.

in a small drawer underneath the desk,
you find an open book.

do you investigate?

the necronomicon.

many words have been scrawled upon these bloody pages,
most of who's meaning eludes you.
however, the few phrases you understand begin to illuminate hidden secrets...

━ PAGE ONE: ━
primary kins
(loosely in order)

the chapter reads as follows:

DEFINITION:

" Kin "

ki

___ a character one associates themselves or identifies with. May help by being a source of comfort, self-expression, etc. One may also share similar problems, trauma, or ideals with the characters they kin.

** please note that i'm not very serious about this!! idc if you kin the same characters bro, this is mostly just a list of characters i relate to and not much deeper than that for me >:3

TOP TIER:
these are characters that i heavily relate to.
the object of my obsession for a period of time.
they just like me fr.

  1. Lucifer, from THE BIBLE

  2. Ryo Asuka - Devilman Crybaby

  3. Shell Overlord - Blood Bank

  4. Griffith - Berserk

  5. Alucard - Castlevania

  1. Lelouch Lamperouge - Code Geass

  2. Ash Lynx - Banana Fish

  3. Aoba Seragaki- Dramatical Murder

  4. The Onceler - The Lorax

  5. Mello - Death Note


4. Griffith - Berserk


playlist - link

similarities:

  • "Now you belong to me." obsessive and ambitious to the point of self-sabotage. twiiiiinnnss

  • doesn't realize how good it is until it's gone. doesn't realize how much it mattered and how much he wanted/needed it, as represented with his relationship w guts.

  • victim of cancel culture</3

  • no but fr i was SO obsessed with him. i was SO OBSESSED i dyed my hair platinum white and literally believed i WAS griffith for a solid 6 months.

  • NEVER EXCUSING WHAT HE DID TO CASCA!! ever. but i rationalize it by separating who he was during the golden-age period from who he became after. obviously, being tortured completely wrecked his mind and body. i maintain that that mental decline changed him completely, which i believe was physically represented in his transformation into femto. basically griffith does not equal femto.. brother literally sacrificed his humanity to change arurughjjkdgjKKDSHFK HE'S NOT THE SAME AFTER ALL OF THAAT (so i distinguish them as if they're two completely different and separate characters. for my mental health. bcuz i Cannot Process the eclipse, despite being obsessed with him all the same </3)

5. Alucard - Castlevania


similarities:

  • initially wanted acceptance from his family, from his dad, so much so that his perceived rejection hurt him so much more and hit so much harder. this is what ended up causing him to break away and oppose his father—that, and he realized that his father was no longer a person he could reason with. still carried the guilt of separating and killing his father, even though he knew it was the right thing to do

  • heaaavy parental issues. particularly with how the parent he was closer to died first, leaving him alone.

  • abandonment issues.

  • pushes away his friends and creates his own worst fear. seen spiraling when his friends left him alone in his mansion. and yet he’s never good at communicating his love to them when they’re with him.

  • is usually grouchy or complains when he really is happy. acts annoyed when asked how he’s feeling even if he’s enjoying himself. sooo many defense mechanisms

  • ...the twins incident. similar experiences.

  • betrayed by those he trusts most, again and again. learns not to trust anyone, so he only ends up trusting the wrong person. this pattern is never ending.

  • is the very thing he despises (by being part vampire).

  • sees his parents in himself in all the worst ways. tried everything to avoid it, but ends up creating his worst fear by doing so.

6. Lelouch Lamperouge - Code Geass


similarities:

  • i relate to lelouch primarily for his perfectionistic attitude that causes him to act as if everything is up to him. he believes that he is the only one who can do things right and get perfect results. obsessed with control to his deficit, his brilliance in strategy and logic-based thinking has given him the upper edge on his opponents and caused him to have too much confidence in his abilities. he is too caught up balancing his goals upon his precarious plans and running from his past to actually reflect on his actions. when things inevitably spiral out of control, he only recognizes it when it’s too late to change his ways. saying “the ends justify the means” is just a way for him to keep running past the pain he feels and the guilt he is accumulating from his actions.

  • family-based trauma. PTSD.

7. Aoba Seragaki - Dramatical Murders


similarities:

  • i feel like it’s my job to understand exactly what everybody is feeling, what they’ve gone through, and that it’s up to me to help them through it.

  • passes out frequently when not taking care of myself

  • cant count (he said that usui has 8 arms but she has 10)

  • says stuff like “these dang youngsters” and “back in my days” EVEN THOUGH HE’S BARELY 23

  • has only ever worked odd part-time jobs

  • very social but also socially anxious and likes to avoid crowds

  • i feel like i could hurt people so terribly if i made a single mistake. afraid of the responsibility that my high understanding of others weighs because of how easily i could hurt the people that trust me if i were to misstep.

  • TERRIBLE at waking up but hates getting teased for it

  • always mistaken for being a girl

  • collects people?? like he finds the coolest people and somehow starts a friend group, even tho they’re all SO weird and never would’ve met otherwise

  • i aspire to have a harem of ppl in love with me like he does

  • interactive dreams
