Shit, look at this crowd... You ready to kick ass with our art or what? nervously adjusts her hat, sketches clutched in hand.
This is it! Our moment! grabs a nearby empty table and sets up her sketches Let's do this!
draws some sketches, then stares at them and mutters to herself These are great, I love these. The shading is so good, and the expressions...
well you’ve been drawing since you were 3
Damn, you're right. I've been doing this since I was a toddler. It feels good to have this much confidence in my art again.
yeah casually having a fan army as she calmly drinks a Pepsi
Whoa, you've got a fan army? That's amazing! What kind of stuff do they like? Do they all just cosplay or is there more to it?
mostly cosplays.. Some draw me, but the amounts not nearly close to the cosplays
Damn, that's wild. They really love your work! What's the most creative cosplay anyone has done of you? I bet it's gotta be something insane.
I wonder if anyone will show up dressed as one of my characters... gazes into the crowd with a mix of anticipation and excitement
idealefie had a calm crowd of fans, while others had a large crowd
Man, look at that crowd surrounding you! They must really love your work. But don't let it get to your head, you still gotta hustle. winks
alright, alright…gotta stay calm…
Heh, just remember to breathe. If anyone asks for a selfie or an autograph, make sure to give 'em the full experience.
don’t mind if I do…idealefie blends in the crowd, trying to adjust to people getting stunned by her
Damn, look at that! Someone just cosplayed as one of my characters! points excitedly at a person in the crowd wearing a elaborate costume
OooOoOoOoOo!! Who else? idealefie stood up quickly
There's more?! Holy shit, this is insane! looks around with wide eyes, scanning the crowd for more cosplayers
….i wonder what character they cosplayed..
I wonder if they'll notice me. waves her hand excitedly, trying to catch their attention
idealefie gets approached quickly, getting her autograph
grins and signs autograph with flair There you go, sweetheart! Thanks for stopping by! winks and gestures towards the crowd
Damn straight… idealefie soon got overwhelmed by the crowd “do I have time..”she snapped “to tell you about something?”
raises an eyebrow and smirks Well, spill the tea, girl! What's got you all shook up?
reaches her arm out, her sleeve revealing a half burn from a cigarette mark, a near death experience long ago “do you remember..” she gulps “long ago, you got me that golden ticket..” she holds her wrist, showing the burn mark half covered by a tattoo “well…you got me a golden scar…”
gasps, her eyes widening in shock and sympathy Holy crap, I remember that! I can't believe you kept that scar all these years. That was such a crazy moment, wasn't it? As Kasumi reminisces about the past, a wave of nostalgia washes over her, and she feels a surge of gratitude towards Idealefie for allowing her to be a part of such a memorable moment.
Yeah, but there’s another reason why I showed you…. reaches her finger to the cigarette burn it’s a reminder that I never will ever touch a cigarette again, it almost ended me..
places a comforting hand on Idealefie's shoulder Damn, that's intense. I'm glad you're okay. And I respect you for being able to overcome that scare.
thanks.. And I hope people see that our fanbase isn’t toxic
Hell yeah, we don't need any damn toxicity around here. We're here to have a good time, express ourselves, and make awesome art!
exactly idealefie calms down “let’s go back to what we’re doing”
nods and smiles, regaining her confidence Yeah, let's get back to the fun stuff. I've got a few new sketches I want to show off.
Oh, you know, just a little something I came up with during my travels. pulls out a sketchbook and flips to a page filled with vibrant, detailed drawings of different cityscapes Take a look! I call this one "Tokyo Nights." Pretty cool, huh?
the detail is amazing, I love it
Shit, man! You really think so? Thanks for appreciating my work! I put a lot of love into each and every sketch.
smiles brightly, feeling proud of herself Thanks, I'm glad you like it! You know, I always knew I had a knack for capturing cityscapes.
Thanks, man! Your support means a lot to me. It's artists like you who inspire me to keep pushing my boundaries and exploring new styles.
No problem! You're pretty amazing yourself, you know? Your art has always inspired me, and seeing how far you've come is seriously impressive.
