#anyways crying for art today

[vickyvicarious]

Will it be no joy to think of hereafter in the silence of the night when sleep is not: 'It was my hand that sent her to the stars; it was the hand of him that loved her best; the hand that of all she would herself have chosen, had it been to her to choose?'

This is an interesting question. We see Arthur respond to it in the moment, of course, by taking the hint and accepting the job. And he is resolute throughout the doing of it, only collapsing in horror when he's done. When he sees how peaceful she looks afterwards, "a glad, strange light broke over his face and dispelled altogether the gloom of horror that lay upon it."

So this seems to suggest that yes, it will be a comforting thought to him in days to come. But at the same time, I can't help but feel it would be nightmare fuel for everyone, all the more for Arthur himself. Dreams of staking her and it not working, of staking her and realizing halfway through that it is her and not her vampiric self that he is staking, and so on... That's fair enough just from it being a deeply traumatic experience. But I also feel like he might feel guilty about leaving her side and 'allowing' her to die, and also feel guilty about 'killing' her tonight. Not in any logical way, of course. But... I dunno. To me at least, it wouldn't feel like any kind of unmitigated comfort when I'm trying to fall asleep. I'd try to think of it that way, and maybe even succeed most of the time, but at others I think it would make everything much worse. And I feel that may be the same for Arthur.

Amazing, take some of the side character demons from Evil Bound.

Vincie is a menace to Chuck and Chuck alone so in Hell, Chuck hexes his hand behind his back so that he isn't grabbed as much (and it's harder to pet him). Chuck is like the most irresponsible older sibling ever to demons though so Kelvin recruits him (as an older sibling vibe) to go help him get his ACTUAL older sibling from Earth. Chuck agrees. And then drags Vincie from Hell with them because no one else wants to babysit him and he refuses to unbind the hex just to re-hex when he returns to Hell.

In Hell, Kelvin actually doesn't appear much different than his human form! Like Kronos, the lines under his eyes are red in Hell but black on earth. Chuck however? In Hell he has wolf-ish ears and has a fur lining his neck (note the neck scars in human form). In addition to that he has four eyes in Hell (note the scars under his eyes in human form). Vincie just has horns in Hell. And! In Hell the hex doesn't have a silly looking "tied up" look, it's invisible unless Vincie strains it with movement and then its red text. But it shifts on earth to be visible.

Vincie's biggest agony for the entirety on earth is "dude it's colder here than in Hell I want a jacket to slip my arms into BUT I CANT BECAUSE IM BOUND".

//yes i am insane about my own demon king... au? what the hell, sure. i guess it's an au now. anyways. here's a very rough practice doodle of angel hiro to get me back into the drawing groove.

full demon king piece available in the 10 magical years zine!

yes, this piece is a tie-in, too.

while i'm not 100% locked in on this design, i did want to do some departures from the original "fallen" design, as seen in the zine, while keeping some key features, like the glasses and an open back design to allow for the wings.

some notes:

"why white hair?" mostly to contrast his original design! i knew i wanted off white/cream main wings, and i thought that making the head wings and his hair white to match would look cool.

"why DID you have him wearing those glasses?" because they looked awesome and tied the red further into the design of the original! i wanted to keep them here, too, as an homage. these ones are still tinted lenses.

the second pair of wings are also just a different color for contrast. since they're so close to the main pair, i didn't want them to have similar values. plus, the brown just gives me an excuse to tie in the brown elsewhere. i think of it like he has a small pair of hawk wings that are mostly for status, but idk.

as a timeline for "how the hell did he end up like this"... just so i can get it out of my brain and down on something tangible, it would go like this: zeus and hiro meet as kids, and zeus only mentions to hiro that he is a prince, but never mentions that he's a prince of the hells to him. they grow very close, but due to the unfortunate circumstances of infernal beings existing among mortals, zeus and his family had to fake their deaths and go back to the hells. zeus didn't have time to tell hiro the truth beforehand, so when hiro came to visit zeus the next day, the only thing he found was a bunch of graves and a horrible scar on his heart. about 10 years later, a grown-up zeus appears in front of hiro, and reveals his true nature to him, and it causes a LOT of mixed feelings for hiro. at some point, their relationship becomes romantic, and they stay together for a while. there is still a pit in hiro's stomach, thinking that zeus will have to eventually leave him again. unexpectedly, hiro [REDACTED] and dies, but the goodness in his soul makes him turn into an angel first. it takes him a while, but he sneaks out of heaven and runs to find his lover in the hells, losing his divinity in the process. then they get reunited. yayyyyy.

yes i will insert jay into this whenever i feel like giving her a design for it. she will rend heaven and earth for her besties to be happy so idk what i'd make her just yet.
