COSMICTIDES
putting days 5-6 all in one place since i haven't been posting them as they're completed. i'm sorry for my absence and lack of art, the first two weeks of october were crazy busy for me and i'm currently going through a depressive episode so it's hard for me to get motivated to do much of anything.
day five: drummer(s)
left: masae sasaki (NEP2NE), right: kairi takahashi (DARK★PORTAL)
masae sasaki is the drummer and mom friend of NEP2NE. she's childhood friends with hanami, NEP2NE's vocalist and keyboardist, and the one who usually gets hanami out of trouble. despite her confident aura, she's camera-shy, and is fairly hesitant to have her picture taken or get in front of cameras of any kind. this doesn't extend to being onstage, however, as she's usually in the back and worries less about how she appears.
kairi takahashi is a DQN-type chūnibyō, so although she acts cool and tough, she's actually quite sweet and shy underneath it all. her delinquent act has extended so far into her life that sometimes she forgets it's an act, and surprises herself when she breaks character. in the band, kairi plays the drum machine, and helps junko with costuming.
day six: keyboardist(s)/other
left: rena otsuka (NEP2NE), junko fujimori (DARK★PORTAL)
rena is a people-person -- an empathetic, extroverted, and highly emotional type. she'd never been in a band prior to NEP2NE, but had been fixated on bands for so long that by then, she had an encyclopedic knowledge of most band-oriented information. she's very happy to finally be part of a band of her own, and refuses to let it go wrong. due to this, she can come off as controlling or obsessive when it comes to the band, but all she really wants is what's best for it. she's highly competitive, but always idealistic. she's a huge fan of HHW and RAS, and hopes to meet them herself someday. as DJ, rena works with the soundboard, turntables, mixer, and any parts that might need to be filled in (artificially, of course.) she is also in charge of NEP2NE's social media accounts and promotion, due in large part to her social skills and previous online presence on numerous band and music-related forums, video sites, and social media.
junko puts on the air of a princess, clothes and all, and her favorite color is green. she dyes her hair blonde, and insists on her hair having green tips if she can help it. she loves lolita fashion and clothing with lots of ruffles and poofy skirts. as much as she tries to give off the impression of being a kind and gracious person, her insecurities can often shine through, especially when she is criticized. junko is the best friend of akane ito, the secondary vocalist and guitarist for DARK★PORTAL, and because of this was asked to do synthesizer work for the band as well. she also works on costume design and visual management for the band, though she isn't the most responsible, and wants to support akane more than anything.
