Dunno why the last time I linked it, it was messed up as hell. Hm. ._.

If Mikage didn't have a fandom before, someone's bound to like him now. (/shot) xD

Man, panel 6 makes me wanna cuddle the fluffy lil' guy! I mean, LOOK HOW CUTE! xP

Anyways, a play-by-play of assumed things, since Mikage's story is kinda complex at times.
But first, a review of Mikage's character. Cus it DOES change over time. x3

At the start of Atomic Shadows (his own storyline; he's freshly-turned 15 at that point), Mikage is someone who speaks first without thinking what he's saying through on. Or at all. He's quite a blabbermouth at the time, though he's also very spacey too. This, when coupled with Denkou's (a friend of his) teasing attitude, equals quite a lot of embarrassing moments (as well as snap-judgements). Panel 2 shows an end-result/hindsight smacking him in the face. And he damn well knows he messed up, too, hence the lack of blushing.
Just another regular mess-up for Mikage, I guess. xD

Panel 3 and 4 take place during his 2nd year at Minerva's Battle School. This is around the time where Mikage's main antagonist of his storyline, Kyo, pops up. The appearance of such a creep makes Mikage assess his true goals and his ability to succeed after he's kept locked up in Kyo's closet for about 2 weeks due to walking in on a murder scene. ._.
After this happens, there are constant rumours flying around the school, some even slandering Mikage and his mentor, Hakune. As Panel 4 shows, this gets to him a great deal, to the point that (during both an economic low and an emotional wreckage) it serves to depress the hell out of him.
Presumably, whoever's on the other end of the conversation in Panel 4 leaves the school for a while after this outburst. Whether it's due to something like a temporal school transfer (which would make sense given that Kyo murdered a student and was going to dispose of Mikage), or personal reasons, Panel 5 showcases the reunion scene. :3
Panel 6 is what would happen if Mikage took a fancying to whoever the speaker was, obviously. He's somewhat strange about his preferences, so I tried to avoid gender identification of the speaker. He's technically bi, but his upbringing kind of messes with his head a bit in the "moral" regard. ^w^U

Anyone notice the teeny changes Mikage goes through as he ages?
And yeah, I reused some sprites here. So sue me, I slept for about 4 hours. Dx
Aha, but I've gotten used to doing that from expression memes. I've just been deleting em, is all. Need to improve. And not do weird memes that don't load after a certain point. >~<U

Since no one mentioned it when I uploaded Nova/Mori's pic, what do you guys think about my new approach to shading eyes? :3
Didn't think I'd ever use the Airbrush tool... It's more useful than I thought it'd be. Combo it with the Water tool, and I've got a good gradient-creator sorta thing. x3

I swear, I'mma try to finish one of these HM one of these days.
And is it me, or is it weird that there's no second line of dialogue in this meme? I'm not complaining; I'm just used to HM games having things likes that. And then sad moments. Like Nina. :/
