On a love of cuteness
A short but heavy update tonight.
That's tough guy Kanji Get-Bent Tatsumi enacting one of my favorite parts of Persona 4: his acceptance of liking cute things.
I found myself growing-up too fast and with too many hard edges. It started off small: surrounded by serious people, talking about how a connection with Rep. Lantos, may he rest in peace, might get me into Westpoint one day. I think you can imagine where it went from there. I suspect a lot of my high esteem for noir and certain character designs is derived from my odd interactions with these people in my formative years. I must have unconsciously developed a liking to big googly eyes and rainbows and soft furs as a reaction to being surrounded by mascara-framed razor eyes and olive drab and concrete and metal. That stuff then took-off on its own and... Sometimes I go too far and end up like this (New fave Tumblr reaction image, by the way. Anyone got a source for it?):
Well, seems my odd love for cuteness is a Freudian thing. I'm a twenty-something male living with girls in San Fran. Seems legit.
But enough of me. I'm interested in hearing what got you into cute stuff?
