Fujo Days - Artist Life

“Fujo Days - Artist Life”

An Azuki Day and Kyuu-Ko Day Story:

Okay, Kyuu-Ko this time! You know how they say everything in life’s a lesson? Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will never hurt you? Well they don’t tell you one thing.

It still stings like a bitch no matter how mature you try to feel.

Hence, I called up my favorite (forced upon) muse - Azuki.

Me: “Yo. I forgot that this (insert project of blood tears) required me to (enter equivalent of invading Dracula’s castle while naked with a spoon for a weapon). I FORGOT THE X. Waah.”

Azuki: “So? *SMASH* I’m kind of busy.”

Kyuu-Ko: “HELP ME, DAMN YOU. Or your reason to exist will disappear and back to Mad Wonderland you go!”

Azuki: “Okay! Jeez, you should be that fierce to that laundry room lady - she still gives the stink eye.”

Kyuu-Ko: “Azuki!”

Azuki: “Okay, okay. Just keep writing *BAM* and add whoever hates you in *SLAP* as a villain and call it day. Now, if you don’t want to be that petty, just keep writing and drawing. You’ll get better.”

Kyuu-Ko: “But my reputatioooooon…I suuuuuuck…”

Azuki: “Are you a virgin? Oh, wait *cough* anyway, you’ll get experience. So be patient. Though you may need to work on your OTHER type of experi - “

Kyuu-Ko: “I’m hanging up. Thanks!”

And thus, another day of swinging mood swings passed! Welcome to an artist’s life. (Cue mantra: “I am an artist. I am an artist.”)

*Note from the human artist Kyuu-Ko:

Azuki Lemons is a denizen from Mad Wonderland I summoned from my head. Long story short - she’s my character taken over my life.

This daily story came from a naysayer who actually gave me good ideas. Now if only I could learn to take the punch…Time to hit the gym. “Saitama! Be my sensei!!”
