MUCC "GEKKOU"
LYRICS&MUSIC: MIYA

Shout as loud as you can, sing the instant of the present

The Rain passed off, the wind of February is bitterly cold
Goodbye to you, you past days, dolorous, monochrome jewelry

I'm back -most welcome. I passed the orange colored sky
This sky that you gave me is still in my heart

The memories are nocturnal dreams colored with crude and wrong colors

With your fingertips you're following the outline of this dirty body
You're a little universe, a flower on a crosscut
Good Bye, you past days, "I"'m walking on my own
through this impassible town where I'm crying until my tears stop flowing

This fragile young man that only can sing his weird words
Has recovered the beauty of this little clear stone that he found one day

You sad songs, does that mean that I have to forget you
is this possible? If I could live, I could cry...

This dirty hand, this abused body
Got back the sense that they had all the time, they are the proof that I'm alive
Good bye, you past days, I'm clutching this stone in my hand
Is as simple as that, in vain, with all my force, and I give rein to my feelings

--You already know
That you are just hesitating to choose the answer you want to choose
---
What journey you will make
with your limited time?

ALICE NINE. "YURI HA AOKU SAITE"

--I know I would like to see you, from far away, from long ago
You were very, very warm.

The two of us were together, the lilies eventually ceased to breath--

Ceasing in the Sun is a fan art piece that consists of two parts. The first one, which can be seen above, is finished, but the story isn't told before I get the second drawing up. Then, I will be back being my usual lovely jabbering myself, but until that, you have to survive with the material that inspired me during the week-long art-creating process~

Technical stuff: when I draw, I become very quickly "blind", meaning that I just draw and draw, fix this and polish that, constantly finding new flaws and mistakes. Then, eventually, I'm not able to see the picture as a whole. Here I suddenly stopped to stare at Saga, quite incoherently thinking, "Would anyone recognize he's Sagacchi if I didn't tell..?" What I saw was a bunch of shadows and lines and some badly drawn hair. I had to step aside for a few days. Now I can see clearly what I've made.. and gotta say, Saga's quite beautiful^^

More technical stuff: I screwed up two things: Saga's hair and Tora's trademark, his sexy nose. However, the fact I used my color pencils this way for the first time should compensate something, ne? *lol*

The photo is rather dark, so you can't tell it but Saga's very different from all my previous bnw works. Usually I only pick the strongest shadows and leave the "base" of the skin white; this time I went the whole face through once or twice with 4h, blurring the graphic with my fingertips. It gave Saga the glow and sex appeal I needed.

Comments are cookies, 'course luvies, but I'm not really expecting any feedback until you can see the two pictures together^-^

Someone wanting to write fanfiction based on my art? :D
