1. Reply to this post, and I will pick three of your icons for each of your characters.
2. I might ask specific questions about the icons! What context were they pulled from; what coloring technique you used, wtf is with those keywords, ect.
3. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
4. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.


From Livio:




1. THE GAYEST ICON OUT OF THE ENTIRE SET. This is the face he makes right as Mika tells him to go fuck himself, basically. Or he's going to do something reckless and leave Raph behind, I don't remember the exact lines but Raph's reaction is both bittersweet and hilariously gay. And probably the moment I first realized that I shipped them. I don't use it that often in camp, it's for really rare occasions.

2. lolololo THIS IS A SPECIAL SCENE. It's right after Raph has walled Sara and yes, that is her neck he's nuzzling. And then she pushes him away and she cries and he's all emo and heartbroken and goes to do REALLY DUMB THINGS but the expression at that moment made him look so raw and vulnerable that I found it sweet. It also functions as a neck-biting icon. >:Db

3. GAWD MIKA STOP DRAPING ON ME YOU'RE NOT AS LIGHT AS YOU LOOK is the thought process in that icon. Mika is on him and being annoying and it's a great icon, I love it.





1. Jizabel's saddest icon. He just had to kill a dog to put it out of it's misery and it turns to a pile of dust WHICH IS REALLY UNREALISTIC OKAY and all that's left is the collar and he just holds it and emos.

2. This was a chapter page, iirc. Yes, it is Jizabel dressed up like the Virgin Mary with a puppy in his arms. It is probably his happiest icon.

3. ONE OF MY FAVORITES sadly the quality isn't very good and I need to fix that, but I love it regardless. In this scene, he's just cut out the eyeballs of one of Merryweather's friends and is right about to kidnap her and take her away and he's taunting Cain, who is standing in the doorway.





1. See her lips in that icon? Those caused me SO MUCH PAIN in Photoshop because in the original cap, they're barely there and it looked weird when resizing the icon, so I had to mess with them for an hour. I also tinted her eyes blue. This works as a wary icon, and isn't often used.

2. Again with the blue eye tint. I did this for all her icons. This scene makes me grin every time, because it's right when Franz has topped her into realizing she JUST MIGHT BE INTO ALBERT LIKE THAT and she's like "what what is this why am I blushing what's wrong with me" and Franz just smiles and it's cute.

3. This one is an icon that... I think has maybe been used once ICly? She doesn't get smacked around a lot. But in the scene, her father has just slapped her and told her to get back in the house and is a complete dickwad at her and it pisses her off and Cavalcanti TAKES ADVANTAGE OF THAT like the fucker he is.





1. lololo ALL THREE OF THESE ARE USED RARELY but here goes. In this scene, Ten-chan is holding Jasmine's face in the icon and being kind of skeevy at her and Ten-chan can be KIND OF SKEEVY at times so I iconned the touching for such occasions.

2. This is a special icon! Technically it's only one panel, but I edited it so that the black makes it look more mysterious and creepy, which is what it's supposed to do! In this scene, Jasmine's family's house is going to burn down and Ten-chan just sits back and watches~ This is the face he makes. It looks like he's slightly crazy, and I love it.

3. A recently acquired one! Shin Pet Shop of Horrors had a scene with him in it, apparently -- since I haven't read all of the new volumes (they're not all translated) I wasn't aware he had made an appearance until Bonten brought the scan to my attention. It's a brief one, but he makes a great face and it cracked me up, so I iconned it.

From Ryuuken:





1. This one's been explained above!

2. THIS IS THE CUTEST ICON OF RAPH'S EVER AND NO ONE CAN CONVINCE ME OTHERWISE. This is the expression he makes as he catches Sara and he's holding her in his arms and his wings are outstretched and it's the most tender expression he's ever made. It makes me heart swell a little.

3. In the very first scene that we see Raphael in, he's making out with this one assistant and giving her the smooth talking and right when things are getting good, Mika BURSTS THROUGH THE WINDOW RIGHT BEHIND HIM and is all HAH I CAUGHT YOU IN THE ACT YOU DAMN PERV and this is the fact Raph makes right as that happens. It's like, "... shit why didn't I lock the window"





1. This works as a neutral/bored icon. It's Ten-chan's attitude towards domestic disputes, really.

2. Now, the story about the coloring goes like this: before I had finished Ten-chan's app, I realized that both Tetsu and Honlon's icons are colored and I hadn't actually done any specific icon coloring before, so I thought why not give it a shot? I tinted his eyes orange, the background yellow, the tilak red, and in any voice bubbles I pasted a pattern there because white space annoys me. I originally picked a brighter yellow but it was too much on the eyes so I toned it down just a bit. It seemed like a good color to pick.

3. l-lol THIS ONE WILL GET EXTREMELY RARE USE. He doesn't shift to any human form on purpose unless it's his normal one, but this was a special request from Ban, and Ten-chan actually appreciates Ban's attitude a lot, so he didn't mind too much. I cannot for the life of me remember the name of the model that I used, but she's hot and that was what mattered at the time.

Will be editing when I get more done. Feel free to comment! \o/
