little kisses

little reminder since bsky seems deadset on flagging 99% of my rybine art:

i tag all my posts myself, so if you don’t see [nsfw] or [nsfw-ish] at the top there then it’s not nsfw :)

the clingiest

Sketch in pink tones of the artist's original characters Ryou and Sabine exchanging Valentine's cards over breakfast. Ryou, on the left, holds up Sabine's card to him--a doodle of a UFO and the words 'Happy Valentine's Day Spaceman' are on it--with one hand while his face rests on the other. He is smiling bashfully as Sabine holds his card to her, shaped like a heart and with little stylized doodles of them holding hands, signed 'For Sabine -Ryou.' She has an endeared smile on her face and a pink ribbon in her hair. The text 'Happy Valentine's Day' with a heart is at the bottom left.

Cropped sketches of the artist's original characters Ryou and Sabine in an open air bath scene. Sabine, partially visible on the left, holds a towel to her chest as she smiles and says to Ryou, 'See how nice it is outside? Plus you actually fit in the bath now' with a little heart at the end. Ryou smiles back at her, wearing a towel around his waist and leaning slightly forward as he says sarcastically, 'Oh ha ha,' his long hair wet and pushed back from his forehead. On the right there is a cropped sketch where Ryou's shoulder, arm, and leg are partially visible as he leans back in the water with Sabine over him.

bean doodle

Colored two-part doodle of the artist's original character Ryou, drawn in front of a brown door and wearing his uniform/gloves. In the first part on the left he leans against the door, shocked and flustered at something in front of him, one hand clutching his chest as his heart jumps clean out of it. In the second part on the right he looks up, still in the same pose and trying to collect himself as he says 'Sabine I just got home oh my GOD' while his heart beats with the sound effect 'B-BMP B-BMP.'

finished a patron request this weekend and couldn't help but tack on this doodle of my beloved idiot :')

Colored sketch of the artist's original characters Ryou and Sabine for Halloween, dressed as Gomez and Morticia Addams, respectively. Sabine, on the left, has her left arm around Ryou's shoulders and her right at her waist, her legs bent as she is being held up by Ryou. She is wearing smoky eye makeup, dark red lipstick and nailpolish, and a low-cut black dress with tendril sleeves and hem. Ryou, on the right, has his left leg bent and his right straight back behind him as he holds Sabine's waist with his left arm. He is wearing a grey pinstripe suit and black bow tie/shoes, and his long black hair is slicked back from his forehead while tied back in its characteristic ponytail. Sabine is smiling at the viewer while Ryou is focused on her. A simple grey rectangle with smaller rectangles to the right serves as the background behind them.

Same as above image, but with minor changes to make Ryou and Sabine look more like Gomez and Morticia: Sabine has black hair and Ryou has a silly little mustache.
