Darksiders Inktober 2024, Day 3 - Friendship.

Do you think Azrael and Ulthane have been friends since they were young?

A hc I have is that Ulthane was an adolescent when he met this scrawny, timid scribe. Their meeting was one of the first between an angel and a maker.

For the anon who asked about Remiel's parents, I finally found some free time to do a quick messy sketch of them😌it isn't much, but it should be enough for a concept idea🙈for Azrael at least, since Death's design is from Darksiders. Anyway, here's Remiel:

While these are Azrael and Death, Remiel's parents:

Azrael usually calls Death "My beacon of light", while she uses "My miracle" for Remiel. Also, I added a small close up as well:

It's been a while since my last sketch, so I hope it doesn't suck too much🙈

[guardianoftheotherside]

Imagine that you saw Azrael stressed out and decided to introduce him to art of zen garden to calm him down . It worked and angel decided to introduce it to other angels. Well… it doesn’t end well.

THE ANGEL OF DEATH, AZRAEL. DARKSIDERS (2010, VIGIL GAMES).

[a-alienn]

do you guys see my vision?

[askthedarksidersfam]

The longest edit to date! I’m really proud of this one!!

[darksiders-scenarios]

Recently recovering from a flu and my poorly state wonders what the characters could say to such a situation. So here goes 🫣‍

Strife: "Caught a bug, did you? I'd joke about you dodging better, but I guess now's not the time."

Death: "Ah, laid low by something so mundane? I expected more from you. Well, get up soon. We've got worlds to traverse, after all."

War: "Seeing you like this is unsettling. I hadn’t anticipated such a challenge to your health. I will stand watch.”

Fury: "Careless! How could you let your guard down like this? You must recover, and swiftly. We rely on your strength – no more carelessness, understood?"  

Vulgrim: "A little ailment and you're already down? Consider this a prime opportunity for a... strategic retreat. There’s profit in health, after all."

Draven: "I told you to keep yourself covered, did I not? Your neglect has clearly taken its toll. Stop pouting and drink this herbal tea. I’m watching your every move, so take better precautions next time."

The Archon: "Your current state is a disappointment, a blemish on your record. Illness is no excuse for weakness. Overcome it, or be forever marked by this failure."

Nathaniel: "I must confess, your ailment is a mystery to me, as our kind seldom knows such weaknesses. Nevertheless, I stand with you in your time of need."

Abaddon: "This weakness displeases me. A warrior of your caliber succumbing to mere illness? Unacceptable. Steel yourself against this enemy as you would any other."

Azrael: "Looking at you now, one might think the end is near. Stay indoors, recover fully. I insist on it. Do not make light of this; your health is too important to risk."

Uriel: "This illness tests you, yet your resolve seems lacking. Sharpen your spirit as you would your blade. Anything less is unworthy of you."

Lilith: "There's a certain charm in watching you battle this... vulnerability. The strength you'll show in overcoming this will surely be a sight to behold, my dear."

Samael: "Stricken by mortal frailty, are we? How... human. It offers quite a peculiar spectacle, I must admit."

Wicked K: "Ah, what you need, my good fellow, is a proper English breakfast—nothing like eggs, beans, and of course, a cup of strong tea to set you right. It'll have you up and about quicker than you can say 'Bob's your uncle'!"

[robotdragonfanatic]

Angel: After such ardent efforts to dive as deeply as technologically possible at the time and later, during the Space Race, humanity suddenly stopped trying to reach deeper... Why is that?

Human: *haunted 1000 yard stare

Angel: *scribbles conclusion on parchment 'clearly they encountered things terrifying enough to make them stop'

Human: 'fucking capitalism'

[askmemelordstrife]

I wonder if I am the only one that has considered, that in the first game, Azrael is the Princess in the Tower, guarded by an evil dragon... saved by a mighty rider on a steed. Only difference is the level of shinyness of the armour, and the colour of the steed...

Azrael: Wait - War do you need your sword for that - okay I guess, I'll see you soon

[elyslesnothing]

Present day Death x Azrael is funny and everything okay but what if Death and Azrael had a hookup eons ago when they weren't anything big in their respective societies and they completely plain forgot about it over time, though they still think about the relationship itself then and then

[imagine-darksiders]

Imagine Azrael being something of a prude, so when you inadvertently waltz into his library wearing something low cut, he all but snaps his neck in his haste to whip around and cover his eyes, exclaiming, "Creator's breath!"

[sketch-guardian]

Mc that can and will sleep anywhere in the cafeteria,class room,outside,in a tree,on the floor inside or outside (that’s also a cuddle bug and looks for one or two (Domnra and mobim) of the RAD classmates/exchange students to sleep on) they do not care what they are doing they will simply wait until their down with what their doing before dragging them off to somewhere warm sit them down and hug their arm or hold their hand their head on RAD classmates/angel exchange students shoulder to fall asleep that or they sit on their lap and fall asleep like that. They sometimes go missing with Mobim,Bob and Rob not answering their DDD everyone panicking only to find them hiding somewhere in RAD’s classrooms/an empty stairwell taking a long dead nap with Mobim in their lap with Bob and Rob the four of them hidden from view Mc curled around them for just in case a demon tries something they can protect the little curse,Bob and Rob they’re perfectly fine just dead asleep taking their nap and waking up very confused to very concerned RAD classmates/angel exchange students and them taking like 20mins to understand what their asking them

(Ps: pls take your time and I apologize for my constant asks and word vomit!)

Don't worry about the long ask, as I already explained, detailed descriptions help me with ideas☺so I'll try my best to write good headcanons🙈(btw, if I don't reply to asks immediately, it usually means I'm either busy or in the process of writing the headcanons, sorry😥):

"RAD CLASSMATES+NEW EXCHANGE STUDENTS WITH A CUDDLE BUG MC WHO CAN FALL ASLEEP ANYWHERE"

DEMYA

Demya is friends with Beelzebub and Belphegor, so every now and then when she and Beel go around consuming food in various restaurants, she woul allow Belphie to wait for them and take a nap in her nest, made up of scattered, messy, but still comfortable pillows and covers. As Demya's mate, MC would also be granted full and free access to her nest, it would for sure be a more comfortable place than all the others where they would risk dozing off, in fact MC's habit would remind Demya a bit of Belphie. Demya is a fairly energetic demon and would have some trouble staying still when MC uses her as a pillow, so she would entertain herself by caressing them, playing with their hands, giving them kisses here and there and growling at anyone who gets too close or tries to wake up MC. Demya would be a little confused at MC taking Mobim and Odon's eye-like creatures to build a cuddle pile, however she would be easily persuaded to join in and act like an animal would with its mate and pups

DOMNRA/MOBIM

Domnra is a fairly sporty demon, but he would have his moments in which he would laze around, he prefers his room to have more freedom and a sense of security, however Domnra happened to fall asleep in class due to boring lessons and in RAD's garden under the shade of a tree every now and then. Domnra wouldn't know how MC manages to fall asleep everywhere, even in unthinkable places, however he would try to be present when it happens, to prevent MC from being in danger. Their habit would remind Domnra a bit of how Mobim tends to fall asleep on him in even uncomfortable positions, such as over a shoulder, over or under a hat, in a pocket, so having MC on his lap wouldn't be a problem, but it could be embarrassing if it happened in public, especially since he wouldn't be able to respond to teasing with shouts, due to the risk of waking up MC. Domnra wouldn't be too thrilled with the idea of ​​MC stealing Mobim without first notifying him along with Odon's eye-like creatures to take a long nap together, he would prefer it to be more organized and in a safer place like his room, where he would feel more at ease and comfortable enough to join, he would even put on some relaxing music in the background

AZUL

Azul is a rather eccentric demon who gets bored easily, so at the beginning he might whine about the fact that MC sometimes wouldn't participate in his activities because they're busy sleeping, however he would quickly get used to it and adapt, especially for the cuddle bug factor, which he would adore. Azul would take photos of all the strange places where MC would fall asleep, saving them in the gallery of his D.D.D or if MC stayed still long enough, he would also try to paint the scene, especially if in the company of sleepy Mobim and Odon eye-like creatures (as Domnra's friend, Azul would warn him of Mobim's presence). Azul would be pleased to have MC asleep on his lap or attached to his arm, smirking at anyone passing by who would show jealousy (the demon brothers), however MC would still have to be careful, because if Azul was in a playful mood, they might find themselves with marker drawings on their face

ZURI

Zuri is a very busy demon, so she wouldn't have much time to lounge around or as ordinary mortals would define, rest. Zuri would initially be a little worried about MC's habit of falling asleep around Devildom, finding it unhealthy and dangerous, not only due to the presence of other demons around, but also because sleeping with the wrong posture could then cause MC to develop some pain, who would obviously be washed away by Zuri with a massage, but not without a lecture first. If possible, Zuri would like to know first the places where MC intends to doze off, so as to know where to go in case of emergency, in her presence would be ideal, so the problem wouldn't even sussist. One place where MC could fall asleep would be Zuri's lap while she is busy weaving, she wouldn't even bat an eyelid, being good at multitasking, in public it would be a bit more complicated, but on public transport it would be acceptable. As long as it is not a health problem, Zuri would also allow MC to sleep in other places in the company of Mobim and Odon's eye-like creatures, warning those directly involved of their location

ODON

Odon as an ancient eldritch being, sleeps only rarely and not for a question of biological need, but for simple curiosity, in fact for an equally question of interest, as disturbing as it may seem despite their good intentions, Odon would like to observe MC rest in uncommon places, they would find it amusing and soothing, furthermore Odon's presence would be a warning to other demons to stay away. Odon, with MC leaning on their shoulder or in their arms, would entertain themselves by reading a book and cradling MC every now and then, smiling and greeting with a wave anyone who looks at them (the demon brothers), making a sign with their finger for silence. Odon would know where Mobim and their eye-like creatures (jokingly called by Azul: Bob and Rob) are at all times, because the latter would notify them and Odon wouldn't need to interfere, knowing that MC is safe with them (Odon would still be happy if they received an invitation)

REMIEL

Remiel's celestial duty, which is to take care of helping souls reach the afterlife, depending on the case, can take up a lot of her time and take away some of her free time as well as a result, so unfortunately she wouldn't be able to always be next to MC. Although Remiel rarely sleeps, she's used to staying stationary in one place for a long time, especially when souls are not ready to depart from the world of the living, so if MC were to fall asleep on her, Remiel, even if confused by MC's choice of environment where to take a nap, she wouldn't move a muscle, remaining still for as long as necessary, at most Remiel would use one of her wings as a blanket for MC and she would softly hum one of the lullabies that her mother Azrael sang to her when she was a child. Seeing MC sleeping with Mobim and Odon's eye-like creatures would remind the angel of death of the times when she rested as a child with Dust and Despair nearby

NATHANIEL

Nathaniel has several tasks to carry out as an angel of quite high rank, however he manages quite well to carve out moments of free time for himself and spend them resting, he would also be quite successful in matching those moments with the days in which MC would choose to take naps in absurd places. Nathaniel wouldn't have many questions about MC's habit and would limit himself to either meditating with them on his lap or perhaps weaving some flower crowns, to then present to MC with a soft smile. Nathaniel would find MC bonding with Mobim and Odon's eye-like creatures through naps cute and depending on the temperature, he would either cover them with a blanket or leave a cold drink for later

URIEL

Uriel is probably used to sleeping little due to her celestial duty and some other warrior angels may have sworn they saw her sleeping standing up at least once, to save time and effort. Uriel wouldn't find MC's habit of sleeping in uncomfortable places outside their home very constructive, they would thus expose themselves to enemies, it wouldn't be safe for their survival and Uriel also isn't sure whether sleeping in that way indicates health problems, so she would ask for explanations. Showing affection in public would be quite scandalous and embarrassing for Uriel, at least the first few times because she isn't used to public displays of affection, but over time Uriel would resign herself to playing the role of MC's and the other small demonic creatures, much to her dismay, Mobim and Odon's eye-like creatures' bodyguard. After all, Uriel has already had to stand guard for hours and hours in the past, so she would take the task very seriously (MC would be advised to lean on Uriel's wings, because resting on her armor would be uncomfortable)
