"Stop reducing Astarion to just a pretty twink who needs to be protected and babied!! He contains multitudes!" Yeah so true--

"He's actually super masculine and naturally dominant and wants to protect and provide for Tav!" Oh. That's where you were going with that. Cool.

I got House of Leaves this weekend and am SO SO excited to read it you don’t even understand. My tiny lil book club is going to read it too, but I have vowed not to start it until I finish my kenjaku oneshot 🫡

[fanterfane]

They say you are what you eat, but has anyone heard of becoming what you wear? Sounds like it'd be a useful and quick way for a witch to collect an army of evil creatures for his army on Hallow's eve... All he'd have to do his call up his friends and invite them over for a very special surprise party.

Happy Halloween everyone!

Here's my little treat for you all on this night of tricks and spooks. Costumed Conundrum! My first ever MASS TF image! It took me a full week's work to get it done, but I managed to do it right in time for Halloween!~ So I hope you all enjoy a little bit of Fayne causing the TF for once, even if he's already possessed.

Characters, from left to right:

- My OC Lemy Enn, dressed as Mesmerizer Miku, who gets Mezmerized. - Melody, dressed as a UA cheerleader (MHA), who turns into Himiko Toga - Epsi, dressed as a demon from Helltaker, who turns into a monstrous Modeus. - Cicero, dressed as Pomni from the Amazing Digital Circus, who becomes Possessed Pomni. - EagleBacon's OC Tenshi, dressed as a Gardevoir, who's game data becomes corrupted. - Nox's OC Marlene, dressed as Astolfo, who becomes Astolfo-Alter. - My OC Michael, dressed as a "Bounty Hunter", who becomes Dark Samus. - Moresalt's Nicky, dressed as 2B, who gets infected with a logic Virus.

Woooo!! That was a lot of work. Technically, it's 8 characters all getting a 3 panel sequence in one series of images. 10 total seperate characters, and 26 separate individual sketches. So I hope you all enjoy it! I personally think the version without dialog is the most compelling. It's why i made sure to draw the entire image in the standard aspect ratio for computer monitors, so if desired, it should make a good desktop background too!~

Thanks to all of my patrons who voted on the polls and supported this creation. I wouldn't have been able to do it without them! It was really rewarding to revisit an old concept like this and do it better! If you'd like to see the work in progress images for this project, be sure to check them out on the discord server! I hope you all have a very spooky night tonight!~

No more fanfiction

Hey loves,

I just wanted to chat with you about a new direction I'm taking in my career.

My recent trip made me rethink a lot of things. It made me realize how short life is and how much time I've “lost” due to mental health struggles. My mind was my number #1 enemy, but not anymore. Now I'm determined to pursue my dreams unapologetically.

My biggest dream is to create a lasting legacy. I want to leave behind tons of content with the female gaze, portraying men as objects of desire rather than just women. It might seem like a silly dream compared to other, more grandiose ones, but I never had access to a lot of content like that. I always felt starved, scavenging the internet for scraps, especially when it came to submissive men. While I've found solace in the writing world, which flourishes with the female gaze, it’s still not enough. Men are just too gorgeous not to be appreciated in other forms of art. I want to live in a world where women have access to quality female gaze content and don’t have to resort to the male gaze if they don’t wish to. That means no faceless dudes, no showing only the woman’s body, and no men so ugly that could make a freight train take a dirt road. Enough.

To turn this dream into reality, I started to think. I could continue with writing, but as you guys can see from the number of words in The Muse and the time it took me to write it (6 fucking years), it would take too long. As the old saying goes, ars longa, vita brevis. Art takes a long time, and life is short. And I, my darlings, have a mission.

Because I love writing too much, I need something that limits the amount I can write. I thought about making videos, but it took out a large portion of the writing part, and it left me unsatisfied. After a lot of thought, I realized that video games can be the solution. They have visual elements, so I don’t need/can’t rely so heavily on my writing; I love games, I play them every day; and I can count on my fingers the number of adult games for women, meaning we need more. A lot more.

Like our himbo icon Kronk says, oh yeah, it’s all coming together.

So I'm excited to announce that I'll be creating games – fangames at first – that mix the interactive side of games and the smut from fanfiction. The SFW version of the games will be free, and the NSFW version and other perks can be accessed through my (freshly launched!) Patreon. There you'll have the power to vote for the next character featured in the games, access work-in-progress pictures and animations, see my writing process, and more. I’m still figuring things out, but I’m super hyped for this!

Currently, I’m working on the very first game of this legacy, called My Assassin Bodyguard. Yes, I transformed the Toji video/fanfic idea that I posted before into a game. You can play the demo now on itch.io!! You don't even have to download woooo!! The game may seem really basic as I get a hang of things and learn new software, but with time we’ll make improvements, such as adding different player characters, a smut gallery, and voice acting (!!!). Anything to make the experience the best it can be.

For those of you who are mostly here for my writing, don’t despair. My writing will still be alive, just in a different medium that needs me right now. I hope you understand. Thank you for your support all these years, for being here through it all. I'd be thrilled for you to join me on this new journey and help me bring this dream to life, together.

So here's the link to Patreon! (⸝⸝ᵕᴗᵕ⸝⸝) I hope to see you there! But if you can’t, I’ll still post updates here and you can always play the games on itch for free. After this dream is accomplished, my next mission will be to write books. Maybe I’ll do it along the way. We’ll see. Life’s full of surprises after all, and that’s the beauty of it. Let's enjoy it the best we can ♡

With love,

Khywae

TL;DR: Life's too short, I write too much and too slow, and I've got a ton of content to create to make my dream happen. So I'm switching to game development for now. I'd love for you to join me on this journey to make this dream a reality. Thank you for everything, love you.

P.S.:

About the Lore

I was so excited about this that I created a little world. Based on the two iconic fanfiction terms —ship and canon—, and my love for Pirate AUs, I came up with a world where we sail across the ocean, collecting ingredients to craft Tapes that connect us with different Alternate Universes. It’s basically a Witch-Pirates-‘90s nostalgia mix. I've got plans to flesh it out even more over time, like adding some decorations, some hot pirates... Important stuff, you know?

Here's the boat in its simplest form, to symbolize that our journey is just starting:

ARKTOBER- Extinction 2023 (Inktober)

PART 1 (ARKtober 2021 - The Isle) PART 2 (ARKtober 2022 - Aberration) Dino zombies, mutations and End of the World !! Woooo this year’s custom inktober is clearly one of my biggest challenges of 2023! I drew a group of FIVE characters to interact, it’s a great exercise I loved doing for my last ARKtober! When I compare them with those before, I feel like I have progressed and made something much cleaner and better managed for the colors, even if it’s not perfect. I mean, when I put aside day 31 vs the first day of 2021… WOW!

Characters: Kahuere, Etekumuiq, Limni: @ampreh Meralbayr: @nalak-bel 's Céen: @ HallOfFlamess 's

I will never thank my friends enough to offer so many hours of good times and stories! • My site | Commissions Info •  • Instagram | Twitter | Youtube  | Artfol | Artfight •

[rawliverandcigarettes]

One year ago, day for day, Halfway Home, my Mass Effect fanfiction that took me seven years to complete from start to finish, began to be released on Archive of Our Own. I have dusted off a drawing of Shlee I had never managed to finish for the occasion, and finally completed it to celebrate!!

It's my little space frog and he's having Problems!!!

Truth be told, I wanted to do approximately eight billion things in regards to Halfway Home, and I have finished barely three in that very long list (one of them being: I made printing tests for the cover of the book and it looks way better than I feared!!! so when I do eventually move forward and make a physical copy, it will look good at least.)

To be quite honest, I think I needed a break from Mass Effect and this story in particular, and so I allowed myself to step away for a while. But! I have been (tentatively, and wayy less efficiently than I had hoped) making slow progress on the sequel, The Empire of Preys! It hasn't reached first draft stage yet, as it is an incredibly long and stupidly complex story --but we're getting there eventually. It may just take a little longer than I first anticipated.

Anyway: happy birthday Halfway Home!!!!! Happy birthday longest project of my life that taught me how to write and did so many good things for me in general in spite of being a story about wallowing in the Horrors!!!! Happy birthday!!! Happy N7 Day ten days too late!!! Woooo!!!!

The One With Royal's Old Firebird: Part 2 (Rhett Abbott x Reader)

Summary: Progress is being made on the Firebird, but shenanigans can and will happen

Warnings: Man shenanigans etc.

Tagging: @floydsmuse @floydsglasses @rhettabbotts @withahappyrefrain @attapullman @sebsxphia @sorchathered @callmemana @kmc1989 @cowboybarbie @delopsia @lewmagoo

The garage was as busy as ever with the bluetooth speaker blasting "Low Rider" by War from its stereo. Rhett and the rest of the gang were busy working on the Firebird, the weather outside scorching and the inside of the garage no better.

"Oh my God this fuckin hunk of junk is completely rusted," Rhett laughed as he fiddled around with the engine block.

"Surprised the engine block hasn't fallen out yet," Kayce remarked as he drained the oil into the pains.

The clunking and clattering that came from the trunk made them laugh a little more, Rip groaning in frustration. "The hell was wrong with the last owner?" he wondered. "Must've been a fuckin car part hoarder or something."

"If it ain't rusted we'll save it," Rhett told him.

"Rhett.....nothing......I tell you......NOTHING.......in that trunk is even remotely worth saving," Rip told him.

"To say nothing of the fact that we're gonna have to sand all that shit off and get all the rust taken care of," Wes remarked, wiping his hands on a rag.

"Pour some Coke on it, it'll take care of it in like a half hour," Billy chuckled.

They worked away on both the exterior and the interior of the car for as long as time would allow. As soon as the oil was drained along with any remaining gas, the boys set to work on seeing if anything else needed doing.

Kayce fiddled with a few of the interior wires, unsure of what hooked up to what. Rhett knelt on the edge, the hood still open and his shirtless frame bent over with the thin black band of his shorts still showing amidst his tight denim jeans.

*HONK!!!!!*

"JEEBUS FUCKBALLS!!!" Rhett screamed, falling ass over teakettle onto the floor. Kayce laughed, kicking his legs against the doorless side of the car.

"Kayce ya'll owe me a new pair of eardrums!" Rhett bellowed.

"Motherfucker you had it comin!" Kayce laughed.

Rhett shot to his feet and knocked Kayce in the thigh, repeatedly with his boot. "I. am gonna. kick. your. ASS!!!!"

After the last whack in the thigh, Kayce finally gave and he and Rhett finished the rest of the business for the day.

*******************

Rhett traipsed in the door to your shared home, still a little dirty and sweating like a pig from the heat. "WOOOO!!" you exclaimed when it hit you. "Alright, you march right upstairs and get in that bath."

"Yes ma'am," Rhett said, wiggling his eyebrows a little.

Right upstairs you followed him with the homemade soap brick you had made from lilac and sage from your garden. Rhett immediately stripped off and lowered himself into the steaming hot water, finally able to get clean after being filthy all day.

You lathered up the soap and ran the washcloth all over him, soaping up his hair with the Irish Spring and rinsing out the suds with the shower head. You squeezed all the water and the remaining suds out of his hair before pressing a kiss to his lips.

"Thank you, baby," he murmured.

"You're welcome," you chuckled before kissing him back. "But be warned, we're working on your nasty feet later."

"Yes dear," Rhett laughed a little.

[ss-2dplatformer]

Day 14 (Part One) Development continues.

I think I need to ignore the brick tiles for now, and just focus on getting it all properly done.

I need to focus on making my levels, getting them to a complete state, and then figure out the correct sprite textures afterwards. I think this is most likely what is halting my progress as I am trying to be a perfectionist with some tiles that will most likely just be background pieces and not used that often, if at all.

But I am taking a break from this because... *drum roll* I AM MAKING A HUD! (Woooo)

First I open the contents drawer and head over to the folder of all of the things I have made. (Aptly titled 'ThingsIMade') Then make a new folder for the hud, and then right click, scroll down to the bottom where it says 'User Interface'. At the bottom of the pop out, select Widget Blueprint, and there we go.

I then select the only option that appears onscreen and open the newly created blueprint.

Once open, I search 'Canvas Panel' and drag it out, and inside of the panel, I place a text box and customise it to my liking. I am left with this.

From there, I open the player character blueprint, and find the Event BeginPlay in the Input Mapping. I break the node link and drag it to the left to give me more space. Then I drag off of the white triangle and make a new node of 'Create Widget'. In the class of the newly created node, I search for the HUD blueprint I made (I simply titled it 'HUD') and then select it. After this, you drag off of the blue Return Value to make a new node, in which you search for 'Add to Viewport.' Once this is made, I connect the Add to Viewport node to the original node I broke Event BeginPlay off of. Then I am left with this.

And now when I click play, I can see the newly created HUD in the top left where I created it.

Of course, the original print text of my HP and score are still there, but they will be changed to proper UI elements soon enough.

Additionally, in order to make my UI work on a variety of screen sizes, I would need to anchor it so that it never moves. I enter the details of the text box I placed, and at the top, you see Anchors. I opened the drop down menu and selected the first option in the top left. This means my UI should now stay in place whether you play on a tiny phone or a massive monitor.

Now I am testing if images work.

And they definetly seem to.

Of course this image isn't staying forever, but it was just a test to see if it worked, and it does.

And the HP works too.

Again, these images aren't staying forever and are purely for testing purposes. I just thought I'd have a little fun with it first.

Anyways, now for actual images to add. I have to create the icon for my HP, and probably score too, though that can just be a number since it wouldn't be worth making an individual sprite for every single attainable score point in the game.

I am stuck between two ideas. I either do the standard heart icon for the health. Or I fully commit to the bricks, and make the health icon a brick too.

Still deciding between the two.

Anyways, back to making the HUD work first. I selected my Score text box and clicked the bind next to the text box. It then presents me with a popup to create a bind, and I do just that. Then it brings me to this screen.

I break the node link, then off the Get Text, i make a 'Get Actor Of Class' node. Under Actor Class, I select the blueprint of my character 'BP Third Person Character'.

Off of the Return Value, I search for Get Score. Then from the Get Score, off of the green part, I find 'To Integer (String)', in which I then connect that to the pre-existing Return Node, which leaves me with this.

However, because my score is stored in my game instance as opposed to my character, I need to change this slightly. Instead of Get Actor Of Class, I need Cast To- and then whatever your game instance is called. Here, mine is called AwesomeGame (because the game is very awesome, of course.) Then, from the object part of the node, you want Get Game Instance.

Not very many changes, and this is what I am left with.

However, this completely replaces the Score: that I had on the original HUD, so I will ammend this slightly. I break the node connector between the convert integer to string and the To Text node. Off of the converting integer to string, I put an append string. Make sure it is the string variant and not the list version. Anyways, it will automatically go to A which is fine but here I want it to go to B so I switch it over. Then in the box next to A, I type in 'Score: ' and then connect everything back up. It looks like this once I am done.

And it works ingame as expected.

(I need to get rid of the among us images. Doing it now.)

Oh and now that there are proper UI elements, you can get rid of the print strings which were previously used to put elements onto the screen prior to the UI.

Now to do the same for my HP. However, unlike my score, the HP is stored in the player character, so I do as originally shown with the Get Actor Of Class and such.

And I can happily confirm that it now works as intended.

I decided to overlay the heart sprite over the HP, and I think it looks alright, though of course later on I'll need to implement animations of some sort.

Additionally, I decided to scrap the brick (for now) as I feel I may be going too heavy with them.

Anyways, this is where I'm leaving this post off.

It needs tweaking but I can do that this afternoon.

[artacetinker]

Uhhhh how am I doing this

Probably more then pics to go with

Yeah let's do that 👍

Here we go

It's set in the future, I haven't made a date yet but it's a work in progress like every thing else. It's far enough in the future that a bunch of cities have either grown or merged into a bunch of metropolitan cities all over earth. Obviously this means more power to keep them running hence there's I giant nuclear reactor in the middle of this one.

Having learnt from other accidents, they build the actual reactor bit with the radiation and stuff as realistically far underground as they can

But they apparently didn't learn and the reactor does a little Chornobyl

Now a little magic comes in and instead of killing everyone, it's stop the residents from physically aging

NO IT'S NOT REALISTIC IT'S A FANTASY UNIVERSE THAT MAKES ME HAPPY. IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM RESPECTFULLY MOVE ALONG PLEASE!!

so the residents now have I minor form of basic immortality and this is just the prologue? Intro? Of this little universe

NOW

my world is set only a few years after, I'm thinking about 4-6 ish years. Adults are having fun and just currently finding ways to cure illnesses as the reactor obviously didn't stop them from getting sick. So that's going on and if the adults stopped, then the children have obviously not aged either.

Now kids will be kids.

They have basic wants, needs, desires etcetera etcetera and the government is the government. A bunch of assholes. They don't care about the kids and have kind of abandonded them at this point resulting in A LOT of children either in orphanages or simply on the streets, being uncared for, with only some lucky ones being able to stay with their families for a plethora of reasons I can't be asked to make or explain.

This has caused groups to form which I'll go into more detail about soon but the Metropolis has been divided into 4 groups, or sectors as they're called, each with a different characteristic

First we have the North sector also known as the Education sector

The East sector known as the Industrial sector

The South, known as the Leisure sector

And finally the West, commonly known as the trade sector

Each sector has a chosen leader or (in the West's case) group in charge

In charge of what?

Trading, gaining money, alliances, saftey and in general; caring for the children that make up their group or whatever

So far; North, south and east are represented with colours

North is gold

East is crimson

And South is a light purple and neon green (woooo Disney villain colours or whatever)

I haven't decided west yet, give me time

I've got a few basic ideas for the areas sorry if my handwriting is shit I'll type it aswell

It's not the best yet but I'm saving that for later

Anyway

The North sector- knowledge

The North is led by Amir, aged 15

He's half Syrian and is lucky to still live with his mother

Most educational systems are located here, mostly unis and colleges

Not too many children stay here as there are more adults up here than anything as the government is most notably located here aswell

It's seen as strict and formal and is represented with the mark of a golden quill because quills... Knowledge, you get the idea

Next

Sorry it's side ways, I'm not spoiling anything yet

The East sector- industrial

The East sector is led by the youngest leader, Irene, aged 14

She's 1/3 Japanese from her mother and 1/3 Greek from her father (weird combo I know makes it better)

Industrial was a friends suggestion because I had no other idea what to call it.

It has most of the cities seamstresses, blacksmiths (cuz cool ass weapons) and shops in general

Over here it's custom to wear animal themed masks (interpret this how you like just don't be an ass about it)

Some do it to hide identity, some do it as a form of identity (don't be an ass) but some do it as Irene wears one and they follow suit

Irene herself wears a lightweight deer make that shes decorated the Antlers with using various jewellery such as rings, bangle, bracelets, necklaces, small chains and earrings. This causes the mask to make small jingles (how tf do you describe jewellery sounds?) as she moves

This sector is represented with a mark of a crimson key (it's a mix of the Greek and Japanese symbol for power and I'm very happy with is :D)

Up next

The South sector- leisure

The South sector is led by Cael, our Irish little drawf (I made them ginger too cuz LEPRECHAUNZZ). They are (funnily enough) the second oldest leader at 16

This sector doesn't need to much explaining as people come here to relax, have fun, party, yadda yadda ya

(Shit I could have called it the recreation sector... Leisure sounds more right tho... Fuck)

This sectors group is known for being a wild bunch, with Cael gladly taking charge. Wearing a brightly colored assortment of clothes and styles, this lot are known to host 24/7 parties in many hidden clubs, nooks and crannies

This sector in general has most of the big ass multi story buildings in such a small space giving it a maze like feel with all the alleyways and such. A great place for unmonitered children to go nuts to their hearts desire

This lively bunch are represents with a Royal lotus, a symbol of relaxation and in my head cannon, refuge

And finally

Again sorry for it being sideways

The West sector- trade

Much like the south, this sector needs probably no explanation

Unlike the others, a group of friends leads the biggest sector of the Metropolis, all of them are Colombian so not only do they know their way around the city like the backs of their hands, they know a lot of people and can get away with shit a lot of other children cant

We have:

Carlos- the oldest of the bunch at 17, hes the strongman if the group

Next we have Gitana aged 16- she's the traveller (illeagally but thats not a problem)

Then we have Tayci and her twin brother Kaimi both at 15- Tayci is a silent runner with Kaimi being a perfect lookout for the group

There's a lot so buckle up

The West sector is by the shore, with most of the citys docks being located here with ships constantly moving in and out. This group was the first to form, having claimed most of the city and has used this to trade with the other sectors and a few smaller groups, overall earning the most income

Each member has used the docks to their advantage as well, having different roles allocated to them through their strengths in order to do so.

What is this may you ask?

Easy

Theft

They steal from boats coming into to the city in order to supply the rest of it in general. They group together with a bunch of other children and split up, collecting anything useful or I'm demand

Carlos is the oldest and strongest, being able to carry heavier crates

Tayci is quick and quiet, being able to zip around unnoticed

And Kaimi has some insane fucking vision, making him a perfect lookout from a high enough angle, using walkie talkies to guide the group undetected

Gitana's approach is a bit different and with Carlos's approval, has her own group of 8-11 that illeagally hop on the boats leaving the ports, travelling to other countries. Once over there they take anything that may not usually be imported over to the Metropolis and bring it home.

They do not currently have a symbol or colour but I'm thinking a grey one with Gitana's go up having a blue one to go with, the blue representing the water as they travel overseas

DONE

This was a lot to type, time to address stuff

Yes there are probably many faults in this which will be covered in posts to come, either on purpose or by coincidence

No I'm not giving too much info on the characters

HOWEVER

I have 2 designs which I might do like teasers or something for so anyone reading this isn't left in the dark for 2 spontaneous months (I need to get my shit together and be more consistent. I'm trying I swear)

Ive got some background for the South currently as it's so far the most visually pleasing to imagine for me and I may post either later or tomorrow depending on how quick I do my fucking homework

I'm trying to sort a lot of it out so it makes more sense

I hope anyone reading this is as excited as I am

I will post moths at some point but this has me hooked right now so I might do a huge art dump

Also next month I'm getting a iPad for me birthday 🥳🥳🥳 so I can finally do digital art so anything I post now shall hopefully be better quality

I will remind anyone probably closer to the date aswell

If you read this and am interested, please stay 🙏🙏🙏

I'm very passionate about this and if anyone at all enjoys it I'll be more than happy to continue

Thank you for reading this far

I admire your patience, willingness and overall generosity to listen to a yr 11 ramble about their passion project

We have our three main characters

Yuki

Oro

Lennox

Originally this was gonna be like

a multiplanet thing but then i decided thats too hard and has too much uneeded detail

but imagine the setting being similar to like raya and the last dragon or wings of fire

where theres distinct parts of the area/contienr/whatever and they’re all impossibly different from eachother from a scientific stand point

Also there’s these monsters called the shaydo and they’re kinda like over powered ghosts

hard to explain, but they’re basically the big bad and caused a bunch of cchaos and now everyone kinda got more racist (as in some races/species blamed others for the reason the shaydo came into being)

so now that i gave you a dollar store world build, let’s get on with the plot

so we have our main character Oro who’s a wood elf and a warlock who has hardcore main character syndrome and kinda just wakes up with the thought of “Man I would totally be the oerfect guy to just go out and stop these evil forces!”

because y’know

an unathletic, illiterate, spoiled brat is the perfect person to go and stop an unknown force of evil haha slay

so he decides to go to the middle of butt fuck no where. literally. with no prompt. no single clue. he just,,, goes there,,,

so in the middle of this desert place thinking highly of himself that he’s just gonna magically have the most epic showdown of all time and win

the obligatory LARGE SAND MONSTER (woooo!!! Yeahhhhh!!! Sand monster!!!!!!!!!!!) appears and now he’s running for his life from the obligatory large sand monster

anyway while he cries and screams like a pathetic baby (because he never thought to yknow. use magic. bc he’s a warlock meaning he could get his demon sugar daddy to help him out, but whatever)

a perfectly placed and conveniently timed stranger comes in and rescues him from doom

he doesnt even get to see this mystery person because he… passes out from shock… (sigh) okay then… uhm,,,

So while he’s out the mystery person is just poking him like

(fast doodle ignore the poor anatomy)

Ofc our mc has to get up evebtually and when he does he immediately blames his savior as working against him and other random nonsensical accusations

and of course they’re kinda pissed because they simply could have not saved oro from the mega death worm fish but,,, okay,,,

eventually they calm him down and introduce themselves as Yuki (a name which they made up on the spot)

Oro (instead of being a decent guest) begins judging and questioning Yuki’s appearance (which Yuki ignores because tbh they’re kind of tired)

Yuki asks him why he’s out in but fuck nowhere and Oro goes on a whole hero monologue

After he finishes Yuki laughs at him (rightfully so) and explains his plan is stupid and “if you cant punch it or reason with it, then you’re not gonna make any progress”

yuki then offers Oro to stay for the night with them and their old guy

Oro agrees and then decides to get Yuki on board to go with him on this mindless adventure

Yuki agrees only for the reason that Oro might kill himself because of his stupidity and lack of knowledge

Together the two set out to go to slmewhere where they COULD get information about the shaydo and maybe how to defeat them

there they meet Lennox

a really big dude with long hair who i accidentally made to look like jesus in the original character sketch

Lennox is one of those silly racist people and openly states his distrust of Yuki countless times, not because of the shaydo or anything

but because he just hates shape shifters and finds them dishonest

As Yuki tries to drag oro away so that they could go find info on the shaydo, lennox inserts himself into the group because he doesnt want oro to get screwed over by Yuki

so now we have a group of people who kinda have different motives and whatever, two of them trying to make sure oro doesn’t kill himself and oro expressing that he’s going to defeat the shaydo

anyway im writing too much so im gonna kinda put bullet points to sum up what happens before the whole ending stuffs

The whole group obviously comes closer together because life or death situations hehehe

Yuki qnd Lennox get extremely close because they both have very similar traumatic experiences

Oro (while getting to know the other two more) slowly grows more spiteful because they’re making great progress in finding out how to defeat the shaydo and his demon sugar daddy is basically feeding this hate into his head about how they’re going to “steal his fame” and “take full credit”

Eventually the big cool final battle thing happens and uhh…

oro decides to get a bit silly with it and uhm

kinda screws everyone over hehe

he rlly said “if i cant have peetah no one can”

and uh yeah

this is still being torn apart and mashed together and the plot makes no sense

so please ask many questions because the more you ask the better i can make the plot make sense for my reasers 🥺🥺🥺

OOHHHHHHH THIS IS COOL

Do you have any drawings or sketches of them?
