Born on this day 95 years ago: blazingly soulful and sensual rhythm and blues queen LaVern Baker (née Delores LaVern Baker, 11 November 1929 – 10 March 1997). In her prime in the fifties and early sixties, Baker’s only rivals were fellow R&B divas like Ruth Brown and Etta James. My favourite songs by Baker: “Jim Dandy” (1956) (memorably used by John Waters in the Pink Flamingos (1972) soundtrack), the ferocious “Voodoo Voodoo” (1961) and especially her quieter, more subdued moment “I’ll Never Be Free” (1957). Onscreen, the fierce Baker makes a vivid impression (belting out the song “Tra La La”) in the 1956 jukebox musical Rock, Rock, Rock! (starring a young and adorable Tuesday Weld).

Meet the supporting cast from Trolls World Tour and Trollstopia. It took me long to draw them all since I missed someone out so here they are.

Rhythm and Blues are a pair of human-sized living voodoo dolls who love to make inventions and experiment. The twins themselves are always in sync and they have a great relationship, even though they tend to disagree and have tensions, something that Satin and Chenille were jealous of and admit in a good way. Even though they can transfer injuries or death to their targets using the pins that Blues keeps on her hair or detach their parts that cause their targets to die or lose a limb, the twins have their own unique ability. Both twins can hurt anyone who is close to them or whose item they are in possession of, but Rhythm can make her target suffer through transferral or detaching by looking at them while Blues can track the target through her mind.

Gore-geously wrapped and draped in gold, Minuet Sonata is a mummy. Like her species, Minuet has riches and a large collection of enchanted items that she can use to help her friends in scaring the socks out of humans. She is also an experienced musician and singer that she can master different kinds of instruments and very prim and proper. Despite that, she doesn't want others to forget about their passions, their interests and hobbies, or generally stop being who they are, and is supportive of them. She just demands every monster or human should respect and be decent towards each other, including herself, a trait that got her together with her zing, Blaze Powerchord.

Not much was known about Dante’s younger brother Forte Crescendo but he is an open-minded mothman who loves to explore different kinds of music, especially techno music when he first met Synth. All in all, he loves his brother inside and out.

Curious and studious Laguna Tidepool is a sea monster who is intellectual and a little nerdy, enjoying studying through observation and writing her observations but this doesn’t stop her from joining in the rave and party all night. All in all, Laguna is a friendly and positive gillman who enjoys making new friends and learning new things.

Bliss Marina is a fashionable gillman with an enthusiasm for music. Sassy and impatient, she loves all the trends and is the social scene queen of the monster world, but she also idolizes other social influencers but if angered, she becomes a rampaging, chomping monster when in shark mode.

Sly and dashing werefox Gust Tumbleweed, he plays by the rules, which are rather complex, but work well. He is laid-back and serious, but rather relaxed at times, although he react very differently to his normal self, becoming almost his complete opposite. He also has a sense of slight goofiness to his otherwise serious nature. He often finds it difficult to resist temptations and is not so keen on defeat but it’s a good thing he has his friends to help him overcome it, especially his zing, Val Thundershock.

Get ready for a next batch so stay tuned, ghouls and mansters!

I don't want to set the world on fire....

It was a surprisingly beautiful day in Hell.

The day people on Earth celebrate that Jesus has risen. He died for humanity's sins and when the calendar shows that it's that day, Hell is... in a calm state. Sinners are less violent, the citizens of Cannibal town don't feel hungry and your love, Alastor, uses his phonogram. He never believed, if anything he hated Christianity because of the colonisers of his homeland. He has shared the stories his mother used to tell him. The way she had introduced him to the Voodoo practices of their people.... How Alastor had used them for harm.

A soft golden light fell against the windows of your adobe. Temperature in Hell was surprisingly normal. Not too hot and not too cold either. It could be spring. There could be flowers.

Alastor had been surprisingly emotional since the morning. It's like there was a hidden significance for him in the way the bells of Heaven could subtly be heard, as the angels announced the triumph of their Lord over Death.

He had made you coffee in the morning. He had combed your hair and gifted you a beautiful brooch. His big, doe eyes were on you as you had dinner together. Alastor enjoys cooking. Apron on, humming an old tune and tail picking through his untucked shirt... You would have never thought you'd find love in Hell.

Jambalaya was delicious as always. You were about to ask him why all this? Were you celebrating something?

But the phonogram started playing your favourite.

"I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim

I just want to be the one you love..."

Alastor took your hand and gracefully walked you to the balcony.

The soft light illuminated his features and you swear you could imagine him as a human. No razor sharp teeth, no antlers or unnatural height. Just an ambitious young man. Still you couldn't help but get lost in his red robs. Long and curled lasses framed his limpid eyes. They're large but soft... The eyes of a child even though they have witnessed such horrors... The eyes of naivety even though Alastor is far from naive.

He started to gently shift from hoove to hoove, his arms wrapping around your waist. You took the hint and wrapped your own around his neck. You spent a moment swaying in the rhythm of the song. You then looked up. He was staring at you intensely. Alastor's eyes were scanning over your features with subtle melancholy, with hidden longing. Eyes, nose, lips and back up.

"Mo linm twa."

The kiss that followed was slow and lasted for many seconds.

And then he was gone. For seven years.

...I just want to start a flame in your heart.
