There’s quite a few “gremlin” type characters in the Studio, I think. Knowing this Subscriber’s tastes I’m also pretty sure who they had in mind, but when I was thinking about Nimona I just had this itch to see her with Denji. I think, beyond them both being definitively gremlin-pilled, Nimona would empathize with Denji’s story and maybe even want to nurture him a little. I have this clear image in my mind of how she’d see him, and I’m trying to allude to a bit of how I read their dynamic here with this answer.
Anzu got quite a few Asks submitted after her debut, which I was happy to see. I would’ve liked to do more of them this month, but the timing didn’t work out well for it. I did want to do at least one, though, and picked this one out of a few that I liked because I thought the “gamer girl” dynamic could be played in a cute way. I liked this idea of Rebecca taking the Studio approach to a question like this, while Anzu’s just focusing on her gaming. If I can, I want to do a lot more with Anzu in the coming months, so hopefully we’ll be seeing more of her down the road.
So I was kind of in the mood to do a Surge Ask when picking this one. She had several questions, but I wasn’t satisfied with the answers I was coming up with for the ones I could do, and so I figured I’d move on. Then I saw this question for Kintaro, and kinda thought I could work with that instead. Kintaro is very gay for women, and I don’t think he’d pass up a furry girl if presented with one. Surge is a little bit outside the type of woman I usually pair him with, but branching out is good and I like the idea of Kintaro being intrigued by how different some furries can be from what he knows.
I don’t think I have much to add to this one. This Subscriber has talked some about pairing Loid with every character Yor and Anya have worked with so far, although it’s not something I’m interested in actively pursuing. However, there are individual characters that are closer to them than others, and I think Yuji is someone who probably has a good relationship with Anya. I don’t think I’ve ever had her refer to him as her big brother in previous work, but Yuji has a way of becoming people’s brother and it’s just kinda a natural fit for him.
It’s been a little bit since I’ve done April with any of the turtles. I didn’t really want to just have her giving one of them a footjob (or, worse yet, have her footjobbing a green dick without it being clear which turtle it was). Instead, this idea came to mind, allowing her to give Donnie the footjob for the Ask while the other three show they might need a bit more patience and discipline in their training.
I don’t think I have much to say about this one. Faye is never really positioned as a love interest for Spike, but they have a good tension and dynamic that I think would make them good fuck buddies. I feel like Faye would’ve been pretty excited to hear Spike was entering the Studio, and that’s basically the premise for the answer here. Beyond that it’s a pretty straightforward pairing of the male and female leads of the series.
So, I think Satsuki is one of those characters who would prefer to have nothing to do with her mother after she arrived in the Studio. However, I think the changed context of the Studio, where Ragyō no longer has direct power of Satsuki, might change how she feels about her over time. I picture this slow transition, where Satsuki experiences more things through the other times we’ve seen her and stuff, and eventually opens up to having a physical (though probably not emotional) relationship with her mom. It’s a little kinky, but I think it’s fun and I definitely enjoy drawing these two in positions like this. So I see these two as sort of like Blackfire and Starfire, where probably the “domme” figure has some built-up resentment and negativity that fuels how she interacts with the other, but the “sub” is able to play into that for their own benefit as well.
It’s a bit of a joke that when Gumball was included in an NHS Fusion, the image used was just the back of his head. I never did draw his face until now, ’cause like his mother I’m a bit apprehensive about how the show’s style will work with how I usually draw characters. That was the main reason I decided to do this Ask, and for his partner I thought Bonkers would be a fun pairing (and other character I don’t draw often).
