Characters: Tamaki, Kyoya, Hikaru, Kaoru, Haruhi

Warnings: Anesthetic

A/N: I hope you guys enjoy, Ouran was one of the first Animes I watched so I may be a little dusty on the characters -> The request Anesthesia + The Hosts

Tamaki

When you get out of the doctor’s office and into his car he rolls up the divider window and smiles at you

You two have so much fun rambling nonsense to each other

Thinks it’s adorable when you get excited “finding out” that he’s your boyfriend

“You’re so handsome.” You say leaning against him. He made sure you were still buckled before he wrapped his arms around you.

“Thank you my love, you know you’re pretty cute too.” He finds himself so lucky that you’re his.

“Can you keep a secret?” He nods with a smile and an eyebrow lift wondering what it could be. “I love you.” His face grows red at an almost alarming rate. This was the first time you had told him that you love him.

“I love you too, my love.” His voice is a little wavy but he has a dopey smile on his face. “Why don’t you get some rest.” He plays with your hair until you’re fast asleep in his arms

Kyoya

The divider window is already rolled up before you get into the car

Has ice cream already situated in the car because he knows you’ll want it

Blushes at how touchy you are before getting used to it

“Thank you, you’re really pretty.” He smiles as he sets his notepad down. He hands you your cup of ice cream and the smile on your face grows wider.

“I hope you enjoy, maybe it’ll wear off faster.” He knows it won’t but he enjoyed how quick you dug into the ice cream.

“Isn’t your partner jealous that you’re here with me? Giving me ice cream.” You poor soul. You’re so confused.

“I don’t think they’ll mind.”

“Why do you say that?”

“Because you’re my partner, honestly what did they do to you in there.” He shakes his head and presses a kiss to your forehead.

Kaoru

Little sweetheart brought blankets with him incase you were cold.

As for snacks, you have your own compartment in all of the cars that holds snacks, hygiene products, hair ties, breath freshener, etc.

by the time you come back out of the office he’s holding your hand and leading you to the car

Kaoru leads you to the car and helps you get in before buckling you up and closing the door. He does the same for himself on the other side. He pulls out a carefully folded blanket and places it around your shoulders before taking another one and putting it on your laps.

“Do you have a partner?” He’s a little taken aback by the statement before he chuckles.

“Yes I do, why do you ask?”

“Cause I think you’re really nice and handsome and I kinda just wanna kiss you.” You pout a little and go back to eating your snack.

“Can I tell you a secret?” You nod enthusiastically. “You’re my partner, cutie.” Your face grows red as you smile widely.

“I’m so lucky.” It’s his turn to blush now.

I headcanon that Kaoru calls you cutie because of the little oranges and that’s how you two got together. (I may expand on that more later)

Hikaru

Teases you about it literally ALL the time

Had his camera set up before you got into car

Thinks it’s absolutely hilarious that you didn’t know who he was

Helped you stumble your way to the car. Don’t be fooled though he was laughing the whole way. Your poor anesthesia filled brain didn’t know why he was laughing and just thought it was adorable.

When you get into the car the camera is already set up and he knows he’ll look fondly on today even if he still thinks it’s hilarious. “You’re really nice.” You say looking at him like he hung the stars.

“Why thank you, so find anyone attractive in there.”

“Well, can you keep a secret?” Well, that made him a little concerned. Why did you not immediately say no and that you thought he was attractive?

“Yeah, I’ve been known to keep a secret or two.”

“I find you attractive. I really hope you don’t have a partner.” He starts cackling at that.

“Sorry to disappoint but I do have a partner.” He makes out between laughs. “Can you keep a secret?” You frown a little but nod. “You’re my partner. And I think you’re the cutest when you’re not in your right mind.” That makes you smile.

Haruhi

Is definitely one of the nicer ones of the bunch

Ask her dad if she could borrow the car/ pick you guys up. Not a problem though because her dad literally LOVES you

Might like you more than Haruhi so he agreed instantly

Snacks are piled high in the car and Haruhi rolls her eyes at the display. “They don’t need this much.”

“Nonsense! Only the best for Y/N! I will have it no other way!” He says as he finishes putting the last bag in the car. Haruhi sighs and gets into the car. When they pull up to the doctor’s office Haruhi gets out of the car to help you. When you reach the car you’re in awe of Haruhi’s dad.

“You’re Mom’s really pretty!” They both laugh.

“Thank you dear! But I’m Haruhi’s father remember? I got you some snacks dear, Haruhi why don’t you sit in the back with them.”

“I was going to do that anyway.” The moment Haruhi sat down and buckled both of you in you had grabbed her hand. You held both of them up and compared hand sizes. Haruhi wasn’t used to you being this outgoing so she got flustered.

“What are you doing?”

“Comparing hand sizes and hoping you aren’t dating anyone and I can have you all to myself.” You say with a smile. You interlock your fingers and lean closer. “Now tell me, am I too late or am I so lucky that you’ll go on a date with me?”

“I’m already dating you idiot.” Haruhi smiles and kisses your interlocked hands.

“Well, that’s just the best news I’ve heard all day!”

cw: yandere themes, delusional coworker, implied social isolation, kidnapping, non consensual kissing, stalking and murder

—————

a/n: Yayy a girlie this time!! I hope you guys enjoy!

———————Minors DNI———————

‘Another day, another dollar’, is what you think as you walk towards your little locker after clocking in. Putting your things up, you bring a hand up as you yawn. You weren’t a morning person but you had bills to pay so here you are. Adjusting your work shirt, you pull your name tag out of your pocket and put it on your shirt before closing your locker door.

“Hey!”

You jump in surprise, turning to see who decided to scare you. You see your coworker, and friend, Lucia. Her bright brown wavy hair, framing her cute little face, reaching her back. Her beautiful hazel colored eyes looking up at you brightly. She was also wearing the uniform for the job, a red polo shirt and blue jeans with sneakers.

“Lucia, you scared me! What the heck?” You asked in an annoyed tone, while shooting her a small glare, not wanting to deal with this so early in the day. She giggled before responding “Lo siento but I just couldn’t help myself! Your reaction was funny.” You can hear the teasing tone in her voice as she continued to giggle.

You could feel your eyebrow twitch as you heard her giggling.

‘There she goes messing with me again.’

You let out a sigh as you straightened out your clothes. “Alright, giggles, let’s go, we have work to do.” You proceeded to walk towards the main floor, patting her shoulder as you walk by, getting ready to start the day. Not noticing how she stopped giggling and the small blush that appeared on her face.

The morning went by normally, helping customers out, stocking shelves and etc. Lunch time finally came around and you went to your usual spot outside, with your lunch on hand, which was the curb behind the building. There you see Lucia, waiting for you. She turns around and smiles once she sees you. You walk towards her.

“Hey, you’re late!” She says with a small pout at the end of her sentence. “Ah, sorry, I got caught up helping a coworker.” You respond with a sheepish smile. Lucia’s face has a look of concern, she’s well aware of what you really meant. “Helping or doing their job for them, mi vida?” She’s got you. “You know me too well, Lucia.” A small chuckle escapes from your lips. “Well let’s forget about that and eat our lunch.” Lucia sighs and reluctantly eats her lunch, occasionally sharing with you.

If only you knew.

Once your lunch break was over, you guys went back inside and continued to work. Lucia took one last look at you before walking away. It seemed like she made up her mind about something. You went back to the floor and started to help customers, the best you could. Some being thankful for your help, most being complete headaches. You just wished the day would be over.

Lucia would come by and check up on you, asking if you need any help or offering you a snack that you’d love. If a customer was being rude to you and she was there, she was quick to make them leave you alone. For someone so small, she was scary when angry. You’re just glad that was never aimed at your direction. You were thankful for her, she was your only friend in this job.

You often wondered what happened to your other friends.

Checking the time, you noticed that your shift would be over in a few more minutes. Not wasting time, you head to the back room where the employee area is and walked to your locker. Taking your stuff out and putting your equipment in for tomorrow, you close your locker and go to clock out. Once your card was punched, you start to walk outside.

A cool breeze greeted you as you stepped outside, the night sky looming above your head. Taking a deep breath, you began to walk towards your car. Just wanting to go home and take a long nap. Seeing your car nearby, there was a small pep in your step and slight smile on your face.

As you look at your car, a blur of white flies across your vision. You feel something on your face. A cloth is pressed against your nose, trying to make you smell something. You struggle against the person, trying to not inhale the odor but they somehow manage to keep the cloth on your face. Unfortunately, you needed to breathe. Every breath you take, makes you lose your vision and strength. Until you finally go unconscious, only catching a glimpse of brown hair from the corner of your eye.

———————

“Ah, you’re finally waking up! I was getting really worried”

A groan escaped your lips as you began to open your eyes, immediately being blinded by the lights. Trying to rub the drowsiness from your eyes, your hands were suddenly stopped. As your eyes adjusted to the light, you noticed something on your wrists.

“Do you like them? I made sure to get the perfect size for you, mi amor!”

They were handcuffs.

Panic began to spread over your body, your heart beating fast, as you quickly shot up and saw her. Lucia. She was sitting at the foot of your bed, just staring at you with a smile. You around at your surroundings briefly. It looked like a basement. Strong grey rock walls surrounded you, with no window in sight. The light source from the top, just barely lit up some of the room, while the rest remained dark. Giving it an eerie feel. The only good thing was that it was a fairly clean place, like she was preparing it for someone. In that case, it would be you.

“Mi amor?”

Her voice made you snap out of your thoughts and turn your attention to her. In the small moment that you were distracted, she got closer to you. She was now in front of you, the look in her eyes never faded. “You look so cute when you’re scared..” She said in a dreamy like tone. “I would’ve loved to see you on my bed, but I have to make sure that you don’t try to run away from me or scream for help,” her hand reaches out to caress your hair, “after all, I worked really hard to bring you here.” The hair at the back of your neck stood up. What does she mean by that?

“Lucia? Why am I here?” You managed to ask without your voice wavering too much. Even though you were visibly shaking from fear.

“Porque perteneces a mí, mi amor.” She said as her hand stopped caressing your hair and cupped your cheek instead. You noticed how her face was inching closer to yours. You wanted to move or push her away but you were to shocked from what was happening. Her soft, plush lips met yours. You could tell that she wanted to deepen the kiss, but didn’t, not yet. This was a magical moment for her, but a dreadful one for you.

Finally snapping out of your trance, you rip away from the kiss and turn your head to the side. Not wanting to look at her. Just the fact that she had kidnapped you, and kissed you like you were her lover, made you feel sick. Before you could turn around to start telling her off, you stopped midway. Something had caught your attention, in the corner of the basement there was a weirdly shaped object. You squinted your eyes, trying to adjust them to the darkness, wanting to see what it was. Hoping that it wasn’t anything that she was planing to use on you. Once your eyes adjusted, you could finally see what it was.

It was a corpse.

Your eyes widen in horror as you open your mouth, about to scream, a hand covers it. The scream came out muffled instead. You feel yourself being pulled to her chest as tears start to buildup in your eyes. “It was a surprise for later but since you saw it now, what do you think? I probably should’ve cleaned the blood, huh?” From the corner of your eye, you could see her looking at the corpse with a disgusted look. “This was the guy who was being rude to you earlier today. To make sure he doesn’t do it again, I killed him.” She sounded like she was proud of herself, but that made you all the more terrified of her. Just what was she capable of? You couldn’t help but think if she was going to kill you too. As if reading your mind, she started to speak again.

“Don’t worry, mi amor, I’ll never lay a hand on you.” She started to caress your cheek again, trying to distract you. “Unless you try to escape, but I know you won’t, because you love me as well.” She tilted your head upwards, making you see her lovesick expression. “I’ll never let you go.”

Tears spill from your eyes as she said that, knowing that she was right. This was your new life now.

Fun facts about my art process:

Today I was making new JLI art and it got me thinking that I have the same ritual when it comes to drawing the JLI and some of them are very silly and fun so I wanted to share with you guys. Even if you don’t care, reading is important so just read the freaking post lol.

1- I hate drawing men !!! Seriously, drawing Martian and Batman is easy for me bc they have very easy features to draw like Batman’s mask and Martian’s nose. But every time I have to draw Ted, Booser and Guy it’s a struggle.

2- drawing Ted is the hardest, I think it’s bc I shipp Ted and Bea so I always try to draw Ted cuter than the other boys and that pressure makes it harder for me but drawing Ted is the bane of my existence.

3- idk why but Guy always ends up looking super hot. I swear it’s unintentional, but the man always looks so hot, sometimes I look at my drawings and I’m like “wtf Giovana why did u make him look so hot ? “

4- I like making Tora skin pinkish, mostly bc she has white hair so white hair and light skin would look very washed out but I like to think that her skin is like “ice burnt” (?). Idk if that’s a word, I’m Brazilian I’ve never felt cold in my life. All I know is sun burnt lol.

5- the opposite goes to Bea, I like to make her skin light bc, well she is in fact white Brazilian, but I like to make her hair color pop, that’s also why I give her black lipstick and eyebrows, it’s all about the hair.

6- Bea’s hair !!!! I always try to give her the best hair. I make it very voluminous, very wavy and very bright almost as if it’s on fire. I love her hair, also I’m trying to redeem her hair bc of the awful 80’s hair style that DC insists on giving her.

7- I listen to Hannah Montana while making my JLI arts … actually I love all the early 00s Disney channel music and I also listen to podcasts but I prefer listening to music while drawing.

8- if I don’t find a reference the drawing is not happening. Every artist struggles at something and my struggle is anatomy I can’t come up with poses, especially group poses so I’m always looking for references. Once I have my reference everything is fine but if I can’t visualize it I can’t draw it.

9- I love drawing booster’s suit, it’s just so shiny and easy to draw, Guy’s vest and Ted’s suit have too much detail so booster’s suit is just fun to draw.

10- I hate drawing booster’s hair tho I always think it looks stupid idk why I hate drawing short hair.

11- I love drawing skeets. I wish I would draw him more often tho. My reference for skeets is the justice league unlimited version.

12- speaking of references, when I draw Batman I almost always make his cape cover him completely bc I think he moves around like Dracula from hotel Transylvania LOL. Idk why but I treat him like the most unserious character ever.

13- I draw using photoshop, this isn’t a fun fact, that’s actually sad.

14- My laptop is an old Lenovo from 2017 and it crashes constantly. Usually I start and finish a drawing on the same day but sometimes my laptop decides otherwise.

15- my signature is my initials but one time someone commented that it’s looks like a “cursive B” and since then when I can’t get my signature just right I draw a cursive B instead and it works lol.

16- I always give Ted dimples, mainly bc dimples make him look even cuter but also bc I struggle with drawing men so I try to give them different characteristics to make them look unique.

17- I give every JLI member its own layer file while drawing and I always make it color coordinated. So Bea’s file is green, Ted’s is blue, Booster’s is yellow, etc.

18- I name all my layers and to keep my sanity I name them all with silly names like “bea’s million dollar hair”. “Boosters shiny ass suit”. “Tora’s blush she bought from MAC”.

19- I came up with Bea’s suit bc I always hated that she had normal looking clothes instead of a suit like everyone else so I came up with a new one and it was inspired by a pair of boots I saw on instagram once.

20- the JLI is my favorite thing to draw <3

That’s all I can come up with right now, hope this post encourages people to keep drawing bc most digital artists like to appear as if being good at drawing is a magical gift and they don’t struggle at anything. So this is my reality lol

Also the new JLI art will be coming out soon, stay tuned!!! Spoiler alert it’s a glee related post 🤫

Do you have a description for Lor?

Heyyy sure, ty! I’ll put some picrews and general visuals under the cut 💃

(don't rb please I'll just put this in his OC tag for reference)

(The top picrew is most accurate!!)

So Lor is Indian, 5'6 and looks like he'd blow over if you look at him wrong. Since I know it's the most important detail: His nose isn't shockingly huge or anything but it's on the bigger side and visibly bulky. He hates it! It's got several cute freckles on it, though, which he doesn't know about because he hates looking at himself in the mirror too closely. :) He's also got some super expressive nostrils that get all flared when he's angry or flustered. Prone to lots of scrunching.

He's got one hell of a snaggletooth and avoids smiling at all costs (unless it's with someone he trusts deeply, which is a VERY low number. It was at 0 for most of his life). He had BAD acne as a teenager and still has an abundance of fading scars from that time. He's also just got scattered small beauty marks around his body. He's got very thick eyebrows that he chooses to pluck often (even though it makes him sneeze as hell). Blushes a LOT when he's getting all stammery and awkward, which is often. Wears some pretty 70s-esque glasses (he found one pair he liked and just keeps changing the lenses out whenever his prescription changes). I'm bad at describing hair so just know it's exactly the same as the first picrew lol, very soft and kind of wavy! He does NOT like changing hair styles even slightly and goes to get it cut way more than most people would.

He religiously wears long-sleeved compression shirts and a dark-colored turtleneck over it. The boy has heart problems and gets cold super easy, and tight clothes are just most comfortable for him.

He's neurodivergent as hell and usually has his hands pulled to his chest, and has to FIGHT not to visibly tap his fingers super fast when he's excited/nervous/etc. In general he's super prone to a lot of stimming with his hands, but he does a lot to try to quash it.

He's also got an EXTREMELY impressive dick So, here's the boy!!

Ok, so I’m thinking a Otto Hightower x reader. Where the reader is Rhaenyra’s younger sister and she does anything to get Otto’s attention (by going to meetings and etc) but he never really notices (he’s still kind to her and friendly). That is until the day Visery’s basically fires him and she reveals her crush (it’s now or never😭) before he leaves. He’s surprised but in a good way lmao. And he basically takes her with him? Maybe some smut

I hope that made sense lol.. 😩

You didn’t know where the crush for Otto Hightower came from but it seemingly only grew as time passed. You were thankful that nobody paid enough attention to you to realise how much you stared. Like now, you thought to yourself as you rested against the wall of the council room. Those pretty eyes of yours staring ahead.

You had dressed up for him as well. A bright red dress in complete contrast to anyone else; a beacon. Your jewels glittered in the light as you kept your wavy locks down your back. An off handed compliment from Otto years ago had you favoriting this style. You were hardly concentrating on the talk around you.

“Sister,” Rhaenyra’s voice whispered at the side of you as she gently placed the carrier of wine into your hand. “Is something wrong?” You took it from her. “I just have somewhere to be, can you finish here?” She asked but was already moving from you before you could answer and she took your silence as a yes.

She was always like that, you thought to yourself with a sigh and you as ever was left alone in her wake. It wasn’t long before your attention was brought to Otto once more and your eyes noticed his empty goblet. “My Lord.” You whispered to him as you gracefully moved around the table.

Those dark eyes you loved so much looked up at you. They softened from the annoyance you knew your uncle had placed there. “Princess.” Otto responded and for a moment you swore a smile came over his face. “Another drink, my lord?” You chewed on your bottom lip as you asked.

Thankfully, your father was too distracted in a conversation with Corlys. “Please.” Otto hummed and you hoped a blush wasn’t making its way across your cheeks. You leaned in and began to pour. You missed those eyes of his moving down your body. Your soft breasts are on display at this position.

“Thank you.” The Hand hummed and you slowly moved back; brushing against him accidentally. His mouth watering scent moving over you. You happily smiled before he turned away to speak. The crumb of attention got you through the rest of the day.

“You know, niece…I never saw it before.” Your uncle’s annoying voice came from the side of you as you walked from the council. “Daemon.” You rolled your eyes in greeting as you continued to walk down the corridor. “Should you not be trailing after Rhaenyra?” You hummed up at him.

“Jealous?” The Prince purred down at you and you couldn’t help the laughter escaping you. “Oh, don’t be so arrogant.” You whispered. Moments of silence passed over the two of you and you thought he was leaving you alone. “You are going to make a fool of yourself.” Daemon warned you as he came to a stop.

You only raised an eyebrow in question. “Your little crush. It’s pathetic.” The dragon snarled from him. “And yours isn’t?” You smirked back. Daemon had never scared you and you weren’t about to start being afraid now. “You always did have a bite.” Your uncle hummed and for once you thought you heard a compliment.

“Thank you, uncle.” You hummed before turning around; ending the conversation on your own terms. You clasped your hands behind your back and tried to rid your mind of Otto if only for a moment’s peace. 

~

The news of the hand being fired quickly moved through the court to your ears in what seemed like a flash. Your heart seemingly dropped as you tried to school your reaction as you desperately tried to reach Otto in time. The fear of him leaving before you could tell him your feelings had you nearly sick.

Thankfully, it seemed the Gods were on your side as you moved into the courtyard; the rain pouring down on you. Your heart racing in your ears as your eyes caught sight of Larys Strong. A look of confusion came over you before you quickly moved towards the fired hand of the King at his horse.

“Otto..” You called out without realising it. “My lord..” You babbled as you quickly moved to his side. “Princess.” His face quickly moved into confusion as he turned to lock eyes with you. You realised you must have looked a sight. “Are you well?” The Hand gently asked and his eyes moved over your body.

“Oh..yes.” You whispered and looked down at yourself with a soft blush coming over your face. “I heard you were leaving.” You clasped your hands behind your back; playing with your fingers nervously. “I am.” Otto answered; still unsure why you were here as those dark eyes of his continued to watch you.

“Do you have to go?” You softly whispered and ducked your head when the words fell from your mouth. A beat of silence moved over you both and you forced yourself not to look up and into his face. “I do.” The hand finally replied and your heart fell and broke all at once. “I see.” You muttered.

Otto slowly reached for your hand. The first touch between you both and it had your heart racing. “Do you want to come with me?” He didn’t know why he asked but when your eyes flashed to him with such excitement and relief; he knew he made the right choice. “What about my father?”

“I’m sure we can come to an agreement.” Otto smirked and watched you move closer to him. His dark eyes moved over your glorious body that he had dreamt about more times than he should. “We should go quickly.” You whispered up at him; your own smile coming over your face to match his.

~

Gods, what had he done to have such a Goddess, Otto thought as he watched you bounce on top of him. Your hands rested on his chest as you took his cock deliciously. Your soaked walls are tightening around him as his name easily falls from your lips. It brought a smirk to his face as his hands rested on your hips.

“Princess.” Otto whispered up at you as his hand moved to cup your breast. His fingers teasing your pebbled nipples. Your movements only quickened as you rolled your hips. His cock hitting your soft spot that had your stomach tightening. “Please..” You whimpered out, hardly knowing what you were begging for. 

Otto smirked and flipped you over. He watched you gasp and those pretty eyes of yours widened. “I don’t think I would have stayed away from you if I had stayed as hand.” He whispered into your ear. You whimpered and arched into him. “I wouldn’t mind.” You babbled out.

“Good, I’m not leaving you now.” He darkly promised and began to mouth at her neck. His hips rocked and your hands moved to palm at his arse. Pulling him deeper as you wrapped your arms around his waist. His larger hand moved down your chest and began to play with your already soaked pussy.

You wondered how long this bliss could last; but right now, you hardly cared about anything other than the pleasure he was giving you.

Mar Signs Effect On Physical Appearance✨

Mars in Aries: athletic body, fast, brusque movements, aggressive, determined walk, physical strength, turns red when angry, angular movements, angular eyebrows, some “masculine ” features even in women (like square jaw, prominent muscles etc.). Maybe red hair even?? A voice that stands out?

Mars in Taurus: curves, sturdy, well-built body, thick or strong neck, curly hair, “Taurean” features and appearance, slow, deliberate, sensuous, sinuous movements and walk, very strong when provoked, but generally slower reflexes, tendency to gain weight, soft, deep or sensuous voice.

Mars in Gemini: Mercurial, fast, youthful looks and movements, fast walk, youthful appearance, talks with the hands, dexterity, good mimics of the face, slim, teenage-like, talks fast, more ethereal, youthful voice.

Mars in Cancer: curvaceous, lack of muscles, white soft skin, nice breasts or nice pectorals, round and fluffy even if not fat, round face, a zig-zag walk Celestica described, maybe?? , soft touch, blushing easily, sensitive skin, soft, whisper-like, sweet or shy voice.

Mars in Leo: the mane, tall or proud looking, straight, long back, “arrogant”, big nose, tendency to gain weight, large, regal hand gestures, deep or “feline” voice (especially in women), sinuous feline walk, with large steps.

Mars in Virgo: beautiful, virgin like, youthful and mercurial appearance. I know a few men with Mars in Virgo, it gives the typical Virgo eyes, very bright and somehow gentle, innocent. Slim, intellectual body types. Mercurial walk (fast and somehow jumpy). A sensitive tummy. Dexterity of hands, talk with their hands. However, being an Earth Mars, a more sensual look than Gemini, something earthy. Feminine features even in men.

Mars in Libra: gracious, ethereal, slim and sinuous in movements and appearance. Maybe tendency for long, wavy hair. Generally wavy movements. Elegant voice, hands, movements and walk. A general look of elegance. Seductive voice. Taller than usual or might appear taller than in reality, an impression of height. Good dancers.

Mars in Scorpio: “dark”, Plutonian eyes and features, darker skin or hair or a “dark” impression even if blonde. Interesting remarks about the voice by Rick Grayson. Strange, “witchy” or bedroom like voice (this could go for Taurus too). Various body types, I think, but could walk into a room without being heard, the ability to walk silently. Seductive appearance in either body or face, definitely Scorpionic eyes or gaze.

Mars in Sagittarius: shorter legs, longer upper torso (Centaurus), athletic or strong body even if overweight ( a tendency for Jupiterian Sagittarius), loud laugh, broad smile, something “big” in their appearance: like nose, hands, feet, forehead etc. Could have a very strong voice. A faster and stronger than normal walk (the horse). Very outdoor-ish in appearance.

Mars in Capricorn: typical Saturnian features, sturdy, maybe smaller/petite women, high and broad cheekbones, serious look, no gesticulation, steady, intimate voice, earthy appearance, goat like features and definitely the mountain goat walk (fast, tip-toed). Sensitive skin.

Mars in Aquarius: something unusual in face or body, at least one striking feature (colored eyes, unusual nose, forehead, hands etc.), ethereal, scattered, abrupt walk or movements, could be of any body type. Maybe very tall?

Mars in Pisces: good dancers, dreamy eyes, beautiful feet and legs, watery movements and walk, soft voice with feminine inflexions even in men, luminous skin.

Does it fit with your Mars?

Thank for your time reading this 😊.

BUCCI GANG SKINCARE/BEAUTY ROUTINE (because this is what i care about)

BRUNO:

Probably has naturally perfect skin, because he’s beautiful and perfect

I love tan Buno, even if the anime and PPP make him super pale.  I translate this to the personal headcanon that he does have a natural tan, but he does use sunscreen everyday

He picked it up from being the son of a sailor, and one too many bad sunburns

Probably also loves using products with aloe in them, he knows he can trust them

Probably washes his face at night, but showers in the morning (because Abbacchio showers at night) so he thinks he doesn’t need to wash his face

Probably shaves often enough, but doesn’t cut his skin anymore when he does it because he is GROWN

Doesn’t use moisturizer because his skin is naturally on the more oily side, and thinks he doesn’t need it

He probably ends up getting wrinkles and aging MUCH faster because of this

  ABBACCHIO:

He has “A Routine” for his skincare, but he focuses more on his makeup and hair

If he’s just gonna cover it up with makeup anyways, who cares what his skin looks like

Because of that, his skin is on the sensitive side, i.e. he gets sunburn easily and has a bunch of allergies to chemicals and specific ingredients

Miraculously doesn’t get much acne anymore, just some blackheads on his nose

So yeah he puts a lot more effort into his makeup as a result

Very good at contour and cut creases-dramatic and gothic looks with dark/neutral pallets

Probably loves Kat Von D because of vibes, but also has an impressive collection of more indie brand’s liquid lipsticks and eyeliners

Actually does care a lot about his hair now that it's long

He originally let it grow out due to apathy, but Bruno complimented his hair so he keeps it long now and maintains it regularly

He washes his hair every other day give or take, then blow dries and irons it. It takes about 2 hours

He also regularly uses a hair mask, and protective sprays and oils

Also probably only uses brands recommended by hair stylists like redken and paul mitchell or the italian equivalent

He waxes all his body hair off.  All Of It.

As previously mentioned, he tends to take night showers because lets him take his time

Plus he's obv not a morning person.  He needs like an hour to do his makeup before he’s ready to go out in the morning

Probs wears the most makeup out of the gang

GIORNO:

Giorno is a person who’s carefully created a mask to achieve his dreams, and i believe this absolutely carries over into his appearance

Not to mention with issues of bullying and abuse in his past, he uses his beauty routine almost like a knight uses armor

Needless to say, he’s got the most intense skincare routine

Without fail, will wash his face and do a skincare regime twice a day

Im talking double cleansing, toner, spot correction, serum, essence, eye cream, moisturizer, etc

Spf in the highest protection available and regularly wears face masks at night

Will NOT go to bed without taking care of his skin

He definitely doesn’t seem like it, but might be the most obsessed with beauty and personal appearance out of anyone in the gang.

BUT it's the natural, effortless type of beauty.  The #wokeuplike this type

Wears some makeup, but its minimal, especially compared to Abbacchio

Some bb cream with spf and primer, lip gloss/tint, and eyebrow/lash tint.  Prefers brown mascara as opposed to black, and prefers long lashes as opposed to thick

He washes his hair with all natural products, and lets it air dry except for his donut holes in the front.  He pincurls them and uses as little hairspray as possible.

occasionally uses a straightening iron to add some curls, otherwise he thankfully has nice hair

Doesn’t really grow any facial hair.  Except for some leg/armpit hair, which is super soft and light.

Also uses hair masks and supplements for his hair, and again prefers organic/natural ingredients

I Want What He Has

MISTA:

Oh dear god

Probably one of the worst routines

Naturally has oily skin and hair, which is great for preventing aging, but bad for everything else

He does not know how to take care of himself, and unless it's brought to his attention, or he’s trying to impress/seduce someone, he doesn’t particularly care

That’s not to say that he’s a lost cause, he could probably be a model if he knew what he was doing.

Because he has oily skin, he got a lot of acne as a teen.  It’s getting better the older he gets, but he still gets plenty of white heads and acne.

Mainly on his forehead because of his beanie.

Will pop them every morning, and sometimes show it to Narancia (to his amusement) and Fugo (to his dismay)

After he pops his zits, he will use those alcohol pads

He thinks unless the skincare is actively burning his skin, it isn’t working

He’s recently started using witch hazel after a recommendation from Giorno, and it’s actually helping him a lot.  He’s not a huge fan of the smell, but it’s a start.  

This man needs to take at LEAST one shower a day, sometimes two.  Not just because of his oily hair, but because of his daily activities with passione, he sweats a lot which doesn’t help with his skin or hair

He uses Head and Shoulders , which is a crying shame.

I headcanon that his hair is naturally very dark, thick and wavy/curly, a bit coarse.  

9/10 his hair ends up sweat plastered to his skull by the end of the day after being under his hat

VERY HAIRY.  If he misses even a day of shaving, will grow stubble.  Body hair dark and curly

Also prolly has backne

FUGO:

Two words: Dry Skin

Which is nice because he doesn’t get a lot of acne, except for blackheads on his nose.

His skin is sensitive in other ways though

For one, it shows his blush easily, which can be embarrassing

Also dark bags under his eyes, although that’s mostly because of his irregular sleep schedules

Uses lotion on his hands a lot, because otherwise they can get very dry and cracked.

his lips are almost always cracked and chapped too, sometimes to the point of bleeding

He washes his face and hair daily, but doesn’t use moisturizer because he doesn't know that much about skincare.

He has learned about sheetmasks from Giorno, though, and likes them

He doesn’t do it often though, because Mista and Narancia make fun of him

Uses whatever shampoo or conditioner Bruno buys him, or whatever’s cheapest at the grocery store.  He does like to use mousse to slick his hair back and style it though

He can technically grow a beard and grows facial hair at a regular pace, but it’s so light and patchy that it doesn’t look that good, so he shaves regularly

NARANCIA:

Poor baby gets the painful kind of acne.

His skin is heavily affected by his hormones and diet

Maybe that’s why he prefers fruits and veggies to meats?  All the sugar and greasy food doesn’t do his skin any favors at all

Unconsciously picks at his acne, and doesn’t realize until he sees blood on his fingers that he knows isn’t from “work”

Could probably benefit from getting medication from a dermatologist, but he doesn’t know the first  thing about it, and is too embarrassed to ask Bruno for help

His hair is Dandruff prone, probably because he washes it every day.

Doesn’t use any special products or anything, but his hair is SO SOFT

It does get tangled up easily, unfortunately, and he has a cowlick on the back of his head that won’t. stay. Down.

Doesn’t really grow any facial hair yet, but his body hair is dark and thick, but very soft at the same time

Poor bby needs help with his routine

Got to Giorno, not Mista

KW 2021: Tease

Day 6 for Kataang Week 2021 hosted by @kataang-week with the prompt Tease!

I might have stuffed up the use of this word and its definition in context but shhhh it’s fine and this is cute.

Links: FF.net | AO3

Summary: Another year, another summer, another week of prompts celebrating our favorite couple. Kataang Week 2021 Day 6. Tease (verb): gently pull or comb (tangled wool, hair, etc.) into separate strands. Aka the take on the “tease” prompt that no one (not even me) expected.

Word Count: 1.8K

It had been a tiring, tension-filled day.

The war ended five, maybe six months prior, and the four nations were still partaking in the grueling process of learning to work together after a century’s worth of fighting. Considering that a group of teenagers were the reason there was any hope of amity in the first place, it came as little surprise that most of the pressure to arrange and facilitate treaties and peace talks fell on the Gaang, much to their chagrin.

And so here they were, utterly exhausted after a long day of trying to convince the Earth King and Zuko that violence was, in fact, bad, and stressed out of their minds, aching for a distraction.

It certainly didn’t help that tonight, of all nights, Katara’s long, dark hair was refusing to cooperate despite her having just stepped out of the shower a mere 10 minutes past. No matter how many times she ran the whalebone comb through her thick locks, nothing seemed to help, and her patience was quickly dissipating.

“Spirits, Zuko and Kuei are going to drive me absolutely crazy, sweetie.” Aang ranted as he entered her room, closing the door shut behind him as he made wild gestures with his hands.

“They’re both so… stubborn! And self-righteous and it’s getting us nowhere!” he huffed in frustration. “I wish they could just- oh.”

The airbender immediately faltered, finally noticing the appearance, or rather the clothing, of his girlfriend seated in front of a square mirror, nightgown riding quite high up her thigh.

“Sorry,” he blushed, eyes darting around the room to look anywhere, absolutely anywhere except at her to keep what little modesty they had left between them. “I didn’t know you had already showered and changed- I really should have knocked.”

Katara rolled her eyes, a slight pink tint rising to her cheeks as she returned to the task at hand: attempting to tame the lion’s mane she called her hair resting atop her head at that very moment.

“It’s fine, Aang,” she laughed, pushing a strand of hair out of her face. “No need to be embarrassed, really. Besides, it’s nothing you haven’t already seen.”

The waterbender snuck a quick glance at her boyfriend, and, quite frankly, she wasn’t sure he could get any redder if he tried. A tomato would have been jealous of the vibrant hue of Aang’s face, and he couldn’t stop staring at the floor, gaze entirely focused on the wooden boards beneath him.

The boy remained silent, and guilt began to fill Katara’s stomach.

“I’m sorry, sweetie,” she frowned, standing up. “I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable. I can go change if you want-”

Aang instantly looked up from the ground, quick to clarify his thoughts. “No, sweetie. It’s not that! It’s just- you look absolutely beautiful, and I don’t want me subconsciously staring at you to make you feel uncomfortable or uneasy around me.”

Katara’s eyebrows raised in pleasant surprise, and she patted a spot on the edge of the mattress, beckoning for him to come sit near her before turning back and glaring at herself in the mirror.

“Believe me, sweetie, there is very little you can do to make me feel uncomfortable around you. Honestly, it’s a bit of a compliment knowing that’s how I seem in your eyes,” she said shyly.

The airbender grinned and walked up to her. Feeling a little emboldened, he tenderly wrapped his arms around her waist and pressed a kiss to her cheek, chin barely reaching an inch above her shoulder.

“You could be wearing a potato sack and you’d still be the most beautiful woman in the world to me,” he murmured as his stormy eyes met her cerulean ones through the mirror.

“Really?” she raised an eyebrow and gestured to the mess on her head. “Even with this bird’s nest?”

“Always,” Aang smiled earnestly. “Speaking of, though, do you need some help with that?”

“I appreciate the offer, Aang, but I’ve been trying for the last half hour now and you aren’t exactly the most experienced with hair.”

“Well, maybe a new perspective is just what you need.”

He gently pulled her back towards the mattress a few feet away from the dresser with the mirror and sat her down in front of him. Rolling her eyes, the waterbender handed him her comb, but he simply cast it aside, instead using his nimble fingers to work through the knots and tangles in her hair.

Katara was right- he did have minimal experience with hair, not having much of his own, but he often played with hers when they spent time together. He knew what relaxed her and what didn't, which gave him the perfect means to seize this opportunity and prove her wrong, while also, of course, helping the two unwind and spend some time with one another.

The waterbender had already been quite frustrated when she had started working through her hair, and her movements had reflected that. She was stressed and antsy, and she combed harshly and roughly, only compressing the knotted hair to the end of the strand and making it harder to get out. Between that and the day she had, she had been close to tears and Aang’s gentle touch was just what she needed.

Much of Aang’s stress had been alleviated when he had entered the room earlier in simply being able to see and embrace his girlfriend. Because of this, he was able to take his time and the change of pace was nice for the both of them.

He worked slowly and methodically, fingers lightly massaging the top of her scalp before moving down to dampen and separate her wavy tresses into individual strips of hair with the help of some waterbending. He took care to not tug too hard on any one strand, having heard many a horror story from Katara in the past with her unable to tolerate anyone else handling her sensitive locks. The airbender was determined to make it a pleasant experience for the both of them, and it was.

In fact, Katara had been mildly shocked by the sheer love and effort she felt Aang direct into detangling her hair. It was sweet seeing him put so much energy towards trying something new just to help her, and the tension in her mind that had been knotted up began to unravel as well.

“Halfway,” Aang whispered, breaking her out of her thoughts. His gaze was still intense and focused on her unruly strands as she sighed softly and leaned ever so slightly back into him.

“I’m sorry I ever doubted you,” she murmured back. She closed her eyes as Aang’s rhythmic yet feathery touches to her scalp soothed her and then gave herself a quick look in the mirror through her peripheral vision- her hair was already looking a lot better and far more tame than it had been 15 minutes ago.

“That’s alright, just have a little more faith in your amazing boyfriend next time, yeah?” he winked with a smile, hands moving the hair he had untangled to the front as he directed his concentration to the last section.

This section was by far going to be the hardest-  most of the strands were embedded into a few large and messy knots creating quite a complex network. Nevertheless, Aang was up to the challenge. He began humming an old Air Nomad folk tune, one of the many they’d perform at Yangchen’s Festival, causing Katara to hum along with him as he spread apart the last few unruly waves of hair.

After finishing, he steadily ran his fingers through her hair like a comb, taking extra care to caress the nape of her neck and back of her head as she sighed happily, and gave it one last sweep with the whale-bone comb.

“All done,” he said, tucking a lock behind her ear when she turned around to face him.

The waterbender beamed before lightly pushing him down on the bed as they both sank into the mattress.

“I take it you enjoyed it?” Aang laughed, looking up at her.

“Very much so,” Katara responded. She then carefully angled herself so that she was lying pressed up against Aang’s side, head resting in the crook of his neck.

“It was pretty relaxing for me too,” Aang blushed. “You know I love playing with your hair and this just kinda took it to another level. I’d be happy to do it for you in the future if you ever find yourself fighting with that comb again, that is.”

“I’d like that, Aang. A lot,” she smiled shyly. “It was great to just… unwind. Have you there with me and just relax. I was basically about to cry when you came in and you just melted all my worries away with those magical hands of yours.”

The airbender chuckled, snaking his arm around her shoulders and leaning his head against hers. “Glad to hear it, sweetie. It’s getting late though, and we have a long day ahead of us tomorrow. Time for some rest?”

Katara wordlessly nodded, sighing and closing her eyes as Aang did the same and blew out the candles lighting up the room.

“Thank you for this, sweetie. I love you.”

“I love you too, Tara. Good night.”

The two were taken away into the dream realm, but an unspoken custom was crafted that night. It became a ritual, a way for both of them to calm down and escape the high stress levels of their everyday lives.

When Katara found her dad kissing Malina and it felt like her whole world was crumbling down around her, Aang had snuck into her room that night and combed and plaited her hair until they drifted off into each other’s arms.

When Aang had confided in the waterbender about feeling anxious and insecure about becoming a new father after she had informed him of her pregnancy, Katara had shown up to the stables with a comb and some apples for Appa in tow. The two ended up assuaging each other’s concerns while leaning back against the fluffy bison, much to their attention-seeking flying lemur’s annoyance.

Whether they were stressing over not being able to find an old book from the Southern Water Tribe after moving to Air Temple Island or had just come home after a near-death experience with the most dangerous bloodbender in the world, one of the two would always sit the stressed one down and grab a comb.

It never became a chore or something they dreaded; it was almost a secret love language for the couple. It was a way of reminding each other that no matter what was going on in their lives, they would always find time for each other and help one another. It pulled Aang and Katara out of some of their lowest, darkest moments, and it only accentuated their highs.

Such a simple, pure act born out of nothing but love and a desire to help- it should’ve been insignificant, a one-time thing, but it became so much more. To Katara and Aang, it meant the world.

Summary: you’re his families waitress but having a rough night. Even though Tom is a big star now, he still has a pure heart.

“Fuck!” You mumbled under breath as you looked for your keys in your unorganized purse.

You were almost an hour late for your shift as a waitress tonight because you overslept studying for some of your college exams. Life hadn’t been treating you well since you moved to England for school. You had no family or friends, you were just completely on your own. And even though the school was paid for, it didn’t pay for your food or your gas , etc. so after school you worked at this overly fancy restaurant that was reservations only . It was essential to keep this job because it was the only source of income you had .

“ oh my god there you are” you sighed in relief, Quickly cranking the car up.

When you pulled up to the restaurant you noticed a long line of people waiting for a table , so you just knew that your boss was pissed and they were short staffed.

“Excuse me, excuse me, sorry! Excuse me!” You said as you moved your way through the crowd.

“Y/n!” You heard someone yell as you were walking back to the employee break room. It was your boss standing at the hosts’ stand with a huge line of people waiting to be seated.

“Get over here!” He yelled. You sighed walking up to him fast, knowing you were about to get humiliated in front of all these rich classy people. “ where the hell have you been? “ he said sternly but low enough for some to not hear.

“I-I’m sorry I overslept I’ve got some pretty big tests-“

“I don’t give a damn get your ass over there and go seat these people they’ve been waiting and we’re short staffed!” He said while pushing the clipboard of table arrangements into your chest. You sighed heavily trying to calm your breath. “ you’re lucky we need you tonight or you could’ve kissed this job goodbye” he said before walking off. You looked up finally to see a young man , with brown wavy hair and   and a piercing Jaw line, staring at you with his big brown eyes. You could see the sympathy written all over his face, but instead of acknowledging it you stood up straight , brushed your hair out of your face and smiled.

“ name please?” You asked, looking back down at your clipboard while waiting for his response.

“Uh Holland” he stated.

“ how many?” You asked still refusing to look up in embarrassment.

“ There’s 5” he said glancing back at his group.

“ okay, right this way, Sir” you stated , giving him a quick smile before turning around walking towards a table .

You stood to the side as you waited for them all to sit down before passing out menu’s.

“ my name is Y/N, I’ll be serving you guys tonight” you said glancing around the table looking at all their faces. “ can I go ahead and get your drinks for you?” You asked while pulling out your notebook. They all started naming off their drinks one by one, the brown haired boy last .

“Tom!” One of the other young boys yelled, grabbing his attention. “ tell her your drink, idiot” the younger one laughed. Tom looked over at you and grinned .

“Sorry I zone out sometimes I uhm, I’ll take some tea, darling”. He said smirking at you. You raised your eyebrows back at him before nodding.

The night was going by so long and you couldn’t help but feel so drained. It was hard to keep smiling and pretending to be this happy go lucky person when you were in such a bad mood as it is.

“Hey y/n , I think you got a crush” your coworker said while nudging your arm.

“Huh?” You asked looking over at her. She nodded her head towards the first table you catered to tonight. your eyes went straight to the brown headed boy, Tom. And sure enough seconds later he was back looking at you. You quickly adverted your eyes to your co worker. “Oh him? Nah” you said throwing your hand up in dismissal. “ he’s probably looking at me cause he feels bad for me. Boss man totally embarrassed the crap out of me in front of him, threatening my job and all that” you said looking back down at the table you were cleaning off.

“ yeah he’s a total ass for sure but that dude can’t keep his eyes off of you” she said referring back to Tom. You glanced over and sure enough he was looking your direction.

“ yeah yeah yeah” you said shaking your head. “Hes probably waiting on me to give him a refill “ you said. You both laughed before going separate ways to deal with more customers . You grabbed a picture of tea to bring to Toms table and started walking towards him. As you were making your way to Him, you couldn’t help but stare in awe as his laugh lit his whole face up, he had a smile that you could stare at all night. And those eyes, the just glistened-

“ dammit Y/N!” You heard your boss yell as you accidentally bumped into him, spilling tea over him , yourself and the elderly couple sitting at the table next to you. Everyone in hearing rang looked your way, including Tom.. again. “ can’t you just do anything right?” Your bossed asked, more like stated. You stood froze not even sure what to say and overly humiliated. “ just go clock out and go home! I’ll let you know if you have your job by the morning !” He claimed while he walked away, wiping what tea he could off of him. You leaned down picking up the now empty picture , grabbing napkins to clean why you could up when all of a sudden an extra hand was next to yours with napkins.

“ you okay?” He asked softly, looking at you with complete concern on his face. You sniffled looking up at him, tears pooling up .

“ I’m fine” you mumbled before grabbing all your stuff and walking past him, going straight to the break room. You felt bad for leaving that way but you were just so embarrassed and humiliated you couldn’t even look him in the eye. You scurried to get your stuff together, dreading to walk back out into the lobby for people to see you again, specifically Tom. You slowly walked out with your head down, you had almost made it to the door when someone grabbed your arm. Go figure, it was Tom.

“ yes?” You asked looking down at his hand.

“ you forgot to get our check” he said.

“I’m sorry” you stated shaking your head. “ he sent me home and I can’t afford to lose my job so I figured I needed to go ahead and get out of here before i screw up more” you stated nervously.

“ accidents happen” he reassured. “ it happens no buggy. But we weren’t Able to tip you “ he stated pulling his wallet out.

“ no no” you said pushing his hands away. “I did a horrible job tonight” you exclaimed. He shook his head.

“ no you were just under a lot of pressure” he said reaching back in his wallet.

“ is everything alright here sir?” You heard your boss say. You rolled your eyes knowing he was about to cause more problems again. “ I’m so sorry about your troubles tonight. I don’t know what was going on with our waitress here but I would be glad to fix any issues you may have had tonight”. Your boss exclaimed to Tom. Tom though smirked looking back at you.

“ I actually came to tip her 2 months worth of income that she makes here so when you fire her in the morning she can still make it . Because accidents do happen and you’re just looking at her job as some toy you can toss in the trash when it’s no longer beneficial to you”. He exclaimed. Your jaw was to the floor at this point . “ but if you’ll excuse me I’d like to finish tipping her so i can get back to my family” he said . Your boss scoffed before walking away.

“ look I appreciate the gesture but I’m no charity case” you stated. He looked at you furrowing his eyebrows.

“ no no I didn’t think you were- I mean I don’t think you are a charity case I just watched you deal with complete bullshit since I got here and that’s not fair of any boss to treat their employees like that” he exclaimed. You looked at him for a second and then smiled .

“ well thanks .. I really appreciate it cause I’m pretty sure my job is done for” you said lowering your head in embarrassment. You walked him over to the check out counter , and he ended up tipping you 2 grand .

“ it’s to make sure you’re straight and have plenty of time to find you something else” he said when you looked at the receipt printed out. Tears started to fill your eyes as you handed him the receipt.

“ well here’s your copy and if you’ll sign this one please” you said sliding him the restaurants copy.

“ there” he said as he signed his name, “ and here’s this “ he said as he flipped the receipt over, writing a phone number down. “ don’t be a stranger , Y/n. Maybe we could be friends” atom said before sliding the paper back to you and walking back to his table . You grinned ear to ear blushing as you looked at the phone number written down.

This would be the start of something new.

This is another major favourite of mine - I’m so in love with this art style. It manages to be super cute while also being simple, expressive, and recognisable. I adore the pose and body language in this particular picrew. I also just realised that it’s by the same artist as another one I have bookmarked and in my drafts on this blog! My self-portrait from this maker is one of my all-time fave picrew selfies. (:

Notable limitations:

Completely monochromatic, which is super stylish but may not be what you’re looking for

Limited hair textures - not very many curly/wavy options

Only one body type - very few picrews allow much wiggle room regarding weight/body types, but it’s much more obvious in a full-body image like this

Notable features:

Three skin shades, all pictured above

It’s not immediately obvious where to pick the skin colour, so I’ll point it out for you: in the second category, when choosing ears, the colour options are for the whole body’s skintone!

Huge number of facial feature options: blushes/cheek markings, ears (either round or pointed, each with several earring options, or no ears at all), eyebrows (the thick ones have colour options), mouths with a wide variety of expressions (change colour for further variety, as indicated by the icons)

Loads of options for the eyes alone: one category to set eye shapes, another for sclera colour (white or black), a category for EACH iris (shape and colour, including odd ones like stars and swirls), a category for the lower eyelids (eyelashes, bags, etc.), a category for eye shines, and a category for closed eyes (which will replace the open ones, of course!)

Hairstyles mix-and-match across five categories, with four shades. The bangs, main head of hair, and stray hair/cowlick will automatically colour-match; the strands on the left and right of the bangs are coloured independently.

Main clothing comprises six categories: underclothes, tops and full-body outfits, jackets/second layers (some of which will cancel out the first shirt, depending on how you combine them), bottoms, socks and stockings, and shoes. All of these have multiple shade/pattern options.

One category for face and neck accessories including glasses, scarves, masks, etc.; another for hand and arm accessories including bracelets and gloves. Gloves are clearly marked for which hand poses they fit with.

A category for animal ears; another for wings and tails

Another category for hand poses, hands with rings or band-aids, and held objects

A category for speech bubbles and atmospheric character effects

A final category for backgrounds - one customizable flat-colour, another customizable simple wall and floor

Hi, I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I adore your arcana style cgs and I was wondering if you had any tips for replicating the arcana style?

m, this is a bit tricky to answer because I’m not confident enough in how I draw the style to make any sort of guide. But in trying to replicate it, I kind of noticed some things?

Note: I like to learn styles through deconstruction and looking at processes. I recommend watching the CG timelapse at 0.25x speed here (x) and looking at some of the CG process/concept art here (x)

Please forgive the rambliness of this under the cut. These are just the notes I make to myself when I try and figure out a style.

The jaw is quite long in comparison to the forehead, but the shape changes a lot. It can be sharp, rounded, square, etc. It’s not necessarily a realistic style but it has decently realistic proportions aside from the eyes, which are pretty large and the eyebrows which are quite thick.

The upper lip is strongly defined as are the eyelids and noses. They’re drawn with quite angular, exaggerated shapes to make them stand out. For high-bridged noses, there’s a line by the other eyebrow to indicate it.

Their bodies are also decently realistic in proportion, being around 7 heads tall.

The hair is very ribbon-like. It has a lot of flow to it. Straight hair tapers out into a spike, while curled/wavy hair curls up and out. The lock of hair tends to get thinner at a curve.

The lineart in both sprites and CGs have a varied line weight. It gets thinner towards the end and thicker at a curve or a junction.

This is a good representation of the different line thicknesses. It also shows that the lineart is coloured.

CGs and sprites are coloured quite differently. CGs are illustrations so they have different lighting/colours depending on the environment. 

The style makes use of dramatic and subtle shading. There’s a subtle blush softly airbrushed around the cheeks/eyes, but stronger shadows and glows where light falls.

Where light is particularly strong, the lineart becomes lighter to reflect that.

For CGs, things blur when they’re “out of focus”. Especially backgrounds. The backgrounds are painted and lineless to separate them from the characters.

The colours in the Arcana are very vivid and saturated, stretching across a range of colours, but leaning towards bright purples, blues, and reds.

Since you liked the ask about how you imagine Keefe and Fitz.... how do you imagine Biana and Marella? Be as specific as you can :) (you can throw Sophie in there if you want)

jkhdaskjfhdkjfh THANK YOU THANK YOUUUUU YESSSS

Biana is darker than Fitz, and she always has a cute blush (y’know the thing that wlw do with the blush across their cheeks and nose? that, but natural). Her teeth are perfectly aligned, and her lips are full (but dark red more than pink). Her eyes are teal with threads of light green, and her lashes are full (but naturally {without makeup} lighter than Fitz’s). Her eyebrows are thick. Her hair is also very thick, and wavy (her hair is so soft, I will fight anyone who argues). She is very tall, and plus-sized. (Biana with large thighs,,, it gives me life). When she smiles she has dimples, and she’s already getting crow’s-feet (little wrinkles by her eyes caused from smiling a lot {genuine smiles}). Her hands are large, and more callused than Fitz’s, but her touch is gentle. Her scars are light; contrasting with her skin.

~

Marella, short and smol. She’s very thin, and her hands are small and delicate. Her eyes are a wide sky-blue, and her lashes are thin and light brown. She has faint freckles all across her face and shoulders. Her teeth aren’t really crooked or really straight. She has straight bangs that go down just over her eyebrows, and her blonde hair is dirty blonde (and loose curls with small braids). She’s pretty athletic though. Her lips are small rosebud lips, and a light pink. She has a lot of small scars from a bunch of different things (she was a wild child and climbed trees etc.). When she smiles really big her ears blush.
