Mayzuketober Day 5: Comfort
nothing too fancy schmancy tonight ... this was colored at first but it looked completely different. Then i realized i wasn't the biggest fan of the colored version so i focused on the lineart instead. and thennnnn i was like. Well i can't just *leeeave* it in black & white. so i put on some color layers and fancy blending modes and shit and i realized This is kind of fire
more nettsy ramblings below.......
lately i've been thinking a lot about disabled Zuke ... i've seen a lot of headcanons about him having something in his legs/back/shoulders (based on how his drumsticks have a cane form ingame) + one of the mayzuke fics i read daily mentions him with multiple sclerosis and it's kind of stuck with me since then i think Zuke is often busying himself with Something in order to take his mind off the baseline pain but the way he does it is. like. really subtle. he doesn't jump from thing-to-thing like a metronome, but he'll get really really absorbed in books or projects in his workshop or transcribing drum tracks before he gets the chance to dwell on it. i feel sometime after actually starting the band with Mayday, he had talked to her about it, and it's lingered in the back of her mind since. of course, she encourages Zuke to go all out -- always has, and she always will -- but, like, she never forces him to over-exert himself. she'll remind him to. like. Listen to his freaking body. ...but May won't force him to stop what he's doing, either; won't hang his condition over him like an oppressive weight, she just takes precautionary measures to minimize the chance of it biting him in the ass later on . because at the end of the day it's Zuke who knows himself best & she trusts that he's aware his own limits. she's not a tether ... she's more of a safety net. so Zuke can focus on enjoying all his body has to offer instead of worrying hard about how he'll feel later on and... if Zuke's fine, then Awesome! if he needs May at his side for whatever reason, be it some assistance, or to listen -- or even just for the sake of Not being alone -- she'll be right at his side in less time than it takes to say 'Bunk Bed Junction.' which, i can't really say that this is exactly what's Going on in the drawing itself because it's sort of ambiguous and up to interpretation but. i had this all vaguely in mind while making it. inspired by today's prompt being 'comfort'

Mayzuketober Day 7: Cats
this one is more of a screen taker-upper but i think both of these are equally important. Number one: i saw a video on tiktok about how cats really like it when people with beards/facial hair nuzzle their hair onto their faces . its apparently because it reminds the cats of when their mama used to groom them. and it had me thinking. i remember reading someone's headcanon that zuke has a cat allergy (and that's why he's more acquainted with reptiles) but i think it'd be really funny if cats gravitated towards him anyway Number two: if elliegator, an alligator, can be blue and purple, does this mean that there is a Possibility that animals in the NSR verse can also be weird colors like the humans are ..??!!! if so, i would imagine that there are a LOT of pet owners with pets the same/similar color as them. There is a red cat lady somewhere with like six cats spanning from orange to violet. ANYWAYS RIGHT This is supposed to be about mayzuke. Errmmm hmm. On the topic of cats. I think there's a candid picture in mayday's camera roll somewhere of zuke stretching his back experimentally via arching on the floor like a cat. Mayday thinks it's the funniest fucking image ever and sometimes she will just send zuke that photo of him to himself out of NOWHERE mid conversation and he has to put his phone down and take a breather every time
