This is a pretty basic one, I know, but I haven’t drawn Lucien and Loren in a while and I thought this might be a fun way to do something new with them.
I don’t know if I’ve addressed it before, but there’s been a bit of a pattern of me answering this type of Ask (pairing up “science” gals with other “science” gals) with this position. I thought it’d be fun to do the same with Hange, and Thomas Edison came to mind as someone who might be closer to Hange’s level than a lot of the sci-fi mad scientist characters in the Studio.
So, there are a few ladies I theoretically could have paired Nanami up with here. However, given what a serious guy he is, I don’t really picture him just jumping into a relationship with someone in the Studio. Honestly I don’t even know if I can picture him having a fling or anything, either… When I imagine Nanami developing a relationship with someone, it’s over a long period of time, seeing them repeatedly, like with the bakery girl from his flashback in the series. So, no longer than he’s been here, nothing like that could’ve blossomed. I thought it’d be cute to hint at some possible future relationships for him, though, and I also figured fans of his wouldn’t mind getting a better look at his body while he goes over his daily routine.
Baba’s a really fun character to work with. In Dragon Ball, after her first arc, she basically serves as a convenient plot device whenever the protagonists need her. I think Goku would be happy to pay her back for all that help, so now she can get some of what she watched Frieza get in that other pic I did a while back.
So this is an Ask I wanted to do basically for my own reasons… the first and last time I drew Maki and Nobara together was as a commission reward for a Subscriber. It was before I’d seen Jujutsu Kaisen or knew anything about either of them, so it didn’t mean much to me at the time. I really like their relationship in the series, though, and wanted to do something with them again, even if it’s a simple pic like this. Like with Yuji before, I don’t really ship Nobara with any of her friends, but I don’t have any problem picturing her having a fun casual sexual relationship with them.
Diana’s a character from the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon I drew back in 2015. Her and Shantae are really only being brought together in this Ask because the Subscriber likes both of them, but I thought it could be fun to do a little something with them. I don’t really picture them necessarily being “a thing”, but they’re both amicable enough I’m sure they’d get along fine.
I don’t necessarily see the Studio as a place where everyone is always ready to bone no matter what, so someone like Johnny who hits on literally every person he’s attracted to will still get plenty of rejections one way or another. Still, I thought it’d be fun to see him hooking up with someone who says “yes,” and Jasmine just kinda came to mind as a casual partner he could have fun with.
