Since I'm a retard who forgot to bring all my art to Otakon (even brand-spanking new pieces like this one), I'll bite and just post it here. ;.;

This piece depicts Cloud remembering that despite his best efforts at being a badass in Kingdom Hearts, whether it was stealing Vincent's claw-arm and red mantle, or adding a ton of belts and shit to his outfit for maybe something of a Squall-look, he's still uke to SEPHIROTH FOREVER. I can only imagine his reaction to finding him in the colliseum, since our stupid American version didn't have that scene. > maybe it was something like "oh shit and here i thought i was all tough-shit with my wing and all but yours is far more majestic and you will always be bigger than me!"

speaking of wings I literally felt guilty drawing them with wings even though it's CANON that they have them. it just felt so lame like I was making it up for a waii waii kawaii bishounensans with wings ^.^ sort of thing but THEY HAVE A WING EACH THEY FLY AROUND AND KICK MY ASS OKAY

also i think their opposite-side almost-matching put-them-together-to-make-something-that-won't-fly-in-circles wings proves that seph x cloud is perfectly acceptable and almost canon. otp!! whatever the hell that means. i had a lot of fun making this picture even though i had to draw like 4000 little circles.
