The positive influences are two people I used to work with, Shiroko-san and Ai-san, who took me under their wing with their fashion design business as an apprentice for a few years. They were fairly upfront with me about their abilities and non-human sides while working with them and it was never something that bothered me.

Shiroko-san recently updated about how they're working on a line of clothing which they're using their demonic nature to sell and I really admired that. That it's something they can embrace about themselves comfortably.
Granted, my designs are pretty much the opposite kind of thing. I prefer doing very cute and brightly coloured designs, but I thought maybe one day I'd find a way to comfortably be able to embrace that demon side of me in my own way too.
