Akusaimonth: Berserk Mode Day 19: Quotes

Okay, so. If becoming norted DOESN’T mean losing your free will, then what good would it do Xehanort to make Sora a vessel.

I am honestly so done with the Saix discourse around here.

Saix has Xehanort’s EYECOLOUR AND EARS for heaven’s sake. He is clearly at least influenced by Xehanort during his time in Org XIII. Not to mention he has a X carved into his forehead, X like keeping watch on people (see KH3D).

I always thought that Saix is losing more and more of himself to Xehanort, but that’s only my interpretation of course. He’s still at least partially himself, before his death in KH2, yes. He did terrible things, yes. I’m not saying those should be forgotten.

But please don’t forget, that he was also in a terrible situation and he was slowly losing his only support (= Lea). Situations have a huge impact on our decisions and behaviour, which has close to NOTHING to do with our personality. Feel free to google the fundamental attribution error on that one. Does this justify what he did? Not at all. Does this mean he shouldn’t be forgiven? Not. At. All. If he is willing to repent, then let him do it. EVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE.

Then again, I’d like to take a look at the “terrible things” Isa/Saix did. The main problem I see is his behaviour towards Roxas and Xion, who would have needed support and whose situations were clearly made worse by him. Keep in mind that he deeply believes he doesn’t feel any emotions and nobody else around him does either. The definition of empathy (according to Dorsch, Lexikon der Psychologie [translated]) is the cognitive understanding and affective reciprocation of the assumed emotions of another being. Of course Saix doesn’t have any.

The “terrible things” I don’t understand, are those other people see in his interactions with Axel? Roxas and Xion hurt Axel’s mental state way more than Saix, not on purpose of course, but I strongly doubt Saix’ goal was to hurt Axel either. Saix and Axel are ARGUING. Axel doesn’t trust Saix and vice versa. Saix is angry, he’s sad, while he doesn’t acknowledge any of it. He tries to keep Axel close with their shared goal. With pressure, yes, which he didn’t have to, but they are still arguing, remember. There’s still a strong, unresolved conflict in between them. Don’t try to tell me, you’re always kind and caring in an argument, dear haters. Because BY SHARING HATE YOU ALREADY ARE CAUSING DAMAGE TO OTHER PEOPLE. I felt uneasy and irritated, I had sleepless hours thanks to those Saix hate posts. YOU caused me harm with your unnecessary discourse.

So what does this say about you? Shouldn’t you be forgiven?

Part 2/4

(I decided to upload them individually, since it will probably be a few more weeks before I finish the other two drawings in the set.)

The Black Paladins.

Di[e]ce Appreciation Week | Day 5: L_ST (L o st)

» I will destroy this world. «

One of the things I love the most about Di[e]ce is how much worse Haruki, who values life so much, who’s organized and caring, is able to deal with everything that happens, compared to Kazuki. Sure, Kazuki breaks down on several occasions, but he doesn’t fall.

The blood on Haruki’s hands just weighs so much more than that on Kazuki’s…

The Moon

Well, I figured after I already mentioned my "The Moon" cosplay, I could as well upload a few pictures of it. Photos were made by a friend of mine who's not on Tumblr. [gallery]

Flowers In My Heart 🌸🌾🌿🌼✨

(This is supposed to be the design for my business card, once I finally get myself to get some of my art printed haha)

New avatar! Plus a coloured version - AND the unwanted norted version, that happened when I accidentally activated all layers except the blue one (which included the skin layer copy I had). Ironic.

You know, I’ve got so many favourite characters. Quiet a few characters I feel a certain connection to, in whom I recognize a part of myself … and still Saix is special. Not like he’s got a special place in my heart, but more like he is my heart. I’m never going to escape this guy ever again in my whole life.

Oops, akusaimonth is already over and I only finished one picture out of the four picture set for the first prompt.
