"And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you."

Unplanned companion to this Murderer, Shinichi Kudo piece from a few days ago.

I'm blaming this one entirely on my brother lmao

I thought I was done with this concept, like I had NO plans to continue representing this idea in this particular aesthetic, but then as we're watching Episode One: The Great Detective Turned Small, completely unprompted he hits me with this fuckin curveball:

And I just. Man

To be fair... I don't think I'll ever be done with the idea of a more emotionally-driven revenge story than what we're given for Shinichi, and the temptation of vigilantism in his pursuit of it, but I wasn't ready to start thinking about it agaaainnnn
