Show Me Your Truth (edit)

This is the edited version of the picture. To see the full version, you'll have to go to the Red Curtain. Oh, and if you do, be prepared for some male nudity! ;)

Anyway, I drew this for a prompt on the mononoke_anime community on Livejournal. It took all day with my copics, no joke.

The prompt was:

Medicine Seller and a Mononoke: A mononoke in some way sexually assaulting MS; MS allowing this but using it to his advantage.

Um, yeah. Pretty obvious what's happening below the frame.

  Thank you very much! The composition in this version is a bit off because I had to crop it at mid-point, but I'm glad that it still works. ^^

It looks pretty despite the theme ^^ I love the colors you used they're very vibrant!

  Thanks! I'm glad you like! ^^
  
  Yes, sexual assault is never pretty.. but the Medicine Seller can handle it. As the prompt said, he turns it to his advantage. He's allowing the mononoke to molest him so that he'll be able to get closer to its Truth (which he needs in order to kill it).
