Annoucement

in the past weeks and months I have realised how much Auguste and Laurent have become my very own characters.

This development is not surprising. I have filled notebooks and countless documents in solitude and created my own timeline, character ideas, have added completely new characters, have given existing characters backstories, have created relationship dynamics, world building ideas, plotlines and drawings for these two.

These characters and the world their story is set in now diverge significantly from the canon(s) that inspired them.

Therefore I have decided to open a new blog for these two which I will henceforth treat as my own characters and rename. I am aware that not everybody that follows me here will be interested in that, thats why I will move this to an other blog — the current blog will not become entirely inactive though, as I may post now and again —

I am happy to invite whomever it may interest to follow me on my new blog as I share ideas and art and fics for these two as my own characters — yes, they will still look the same, still be blood brothers and still be entirely wholesome and consensual :)

As I said before; I hope to one day close the desideratum of consensual homosexual sibcest in the fantasy genre or at least contribute to it.

I want to thank everyone who has interacted with my content, who has continuously created content for Laurent/Auguste and who has (at times) defended; supported, inspired and accepted me in the fandom 💗

Here is my new blog if you are interested in the brothers detached from the story of Captive Prince: ton frère qui t’aime. ((Your brother, who loves you.))

Thank you very much!

hc/ideas auguste & hennike/aleron

Hennike’s marriage to Aleron was a forced/arranged political marriage and as such the two never found to each other.

Aleron didn’t make Hennike feel at home in Arles, she was ostracised by court nobles as an outsider due to her kemptian ancestry.

all in all, Hennike’s health deteriorated after her marriage to Aleron. Especially during her pregnancy and Auguste’s birth Hennike was in poor health more or less continuously.

as Auguste grew up, his mother leant on him for emotional support due to her husband being unavailable for most things. This massively overwhelmed young Auguste but he tried harder and harder to step in for his father the more difficult it got.

After Laurent is born, Hennike is in such poor condition that she makes Auguste look after him — Auguste, who is still a child at that point — is then pushed into essentially both parent’s role towards Laurent.

It never ceases to amaze me how many tiny, obscure fandoms simply exist and are loved by someone out there, no matter how niche the interest. There is literally something for everyone and it makes me marvel at how unique we are as individuals.

Auguste and Laurent, chilling and soaking with chalis. Because ruling Vere will drive you mad without self care and downtime.

smaurent, when auguste tells him he's not allowed to ride his pony with him today:

[benevaletete]

‘‘Don’t you say his name.’’ The words were forced out of Laurent. ‘‘Don’t you ever say his name, you killed my brother.’’

when a ship involves one character being so utterly devoted to the other that its borderline religious????? when the devoted character is written to be seen as a sinner, or damned, or a non believer??? and the other character an angel or god-like???? i simply eat that shit UP how can you not??

hc: Auguste has a poetic vein like the great romanticists

„People say I am frigid, brother.“ „Very far from the truth.“

I hope you don't mind - if you do, I'll change it - but I made the piece you did of Laurent playing polo on horseback into my desktop background on my pc and by sheer coincidence the size of the image means the horse's hooves sit perfectly on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen to the extent that the horse looks like it's standing on it. I know it has a companion piece with Auguste playing polo, but the Laurent one is a personal favorite (though I do like the way you draw Auguste).

Thats so endearing to hear, thank you for letting me know! :)
