#but the two boys are now magical boy-ified! :D

[purpleponder]

Here’s some of the concepts for Kaito :D

I really wanted him to keep the cape and for some reason I just really struggled with trying to find something that worked.

The first drawing is the first design that I was happy with and was about to post before I took a step back and realized it looks too much like Shinichi so I scrapped it.

hai 7ban-sama !! anon is back again :33 we now have dragon art of the trio made by aida , does that mean we’ll get any dragon content of the tbhk cast aswell ?? please give me any dragon ❤️🤍 head-canons !! :D

Hi there! Ooh ooh, I can only hope we'll see more characters dragon-ified, at the very least, I have my fingers crossed for a matching Tsukasa... whether he be a scribble, a header, any degree of polish. I'd be excited to know he is out there. Amane's and Nene's outfits/colors were already so extravagant in a way I couldn't have predicted, so... I'd love to see what's envisioned for Tsutsu~

As for headcanons... I haven't actually been so industrious myself. (Not to sound too self-pitying, but I've been pretty braindead the past week or two...) Buuut, my lovely twin @2n2n thought up some things and shared them with me recently, and I really just like her idea...❤ I've been granted permission to share.

"The set-up is one where Amane and Tsukasa are dragons, but not so ancient — much like in canon how the Mermaid doesn't regard Amane as a threat because he's some dinky mystery and 50 years is not a lot to a kaii; the boys could functionally be baby dragons but, humans can't clock them. Mischievous Amane likes to mess with humans… adjacent to the jewelery shoppe boys, Amane and Tsukasa engaged in getting people to make deals with them, yet making like hardly any earnest effort. Not remotely capable of all they seem to. Not like it matters… But I'd like to think communication with the dragons, any dragon, at all, IS SOOOO special and rare and, as in canon not everyone can even be heard, but Nene-chan a special girl… prays and makes offerings often. Amane is like goddddd pant pant rrr that hot girl!!!!!! but he has to be mad shes like often praying for guys… lol… Amane who is a dragon does not understand human romance or dating, his mind sees humans as pretty petty and more than anything desperate to procreate or something (that's what boyfriends are for…) (so many people BEG for child or to save some ugly child or bless their ugly child… all humans care about)… they are like rats or something, you know… he can explain this to Tsukasa uncharitably who is just like, I see… humans do love their big ceremonies for weddings… but they're so pretty ♥ it would be nice to see the girl like that! dressed up all nice…. ♥

... but it gives an impression that Yashiro wants to. be impregnated like sf badly it's obscene, she's so young what is wrong with this one. I wish I did not have to sit here and listen to it…. rrrr. But gklfjg;…

I guess it's not dissimilar to canon. Amane is like, 'well… why can't it 'be me', if she's going to be obsessed like this, and I'm an amazing dragon…. I can tell her I'll marry her, and she'll bare my child. A magical being of dragon and human origin.' <- he can't actually do this. This isn't an ability he has— WELL– he can, ,, bind himself to her (like in canon…) and that's kind of like a relationship, but he can't. put a baby in her, even if it's poss for a dragon let's say you need to be like 5000 years old and of a certain power and veneration and, he is NOT close. But it means there are FABLES and MYTHS and RUMORS of dragon conception… I will have Tsukasa gently sway her to reading about and understanding those myths, thinking about them in some way. Just to lend me credibility…. like blow open a book onto a page about this OK. knock some scroll off a wall while shes dusting. ok

But the. Core of my thought is just Amane appearing before Nene-chan, on a night she is tending a shrine (I want to imagine a shrine-maiden Nene-chan… just sweeps n stuff but yaknow. tThus why she's always heard & always making offerings & Amane is way too aware of her)… and idk, some mumbo jumbo about, her devotion to her duty, a reward in order… and, taking pity on her… have heard her wishes, her pleas, over the many years…

but it'd kind of be a. [silent confusion from Nene-chan] bc she fklsdj;fkdl doesn't want flkdjf; a kid, that's not kglf;gjk;l? but its like [thinks] but ? … if I had a dragon-blessed child…. wouldn't I become some kind of, royalty, surely…? Popular… wouldn't everyone beg to see me and make offerings to me…. wouldn't I then have suitors? I'll have been recognized as special and beautiful by a Godly being… she's Nene-chan so it quickly gets to her head. Amane is patient watching her think like, that's right girl think about it…. Tsukasa swirls into the room. I had like lkfj;ld thought of Amane snaking Tsukasa into things like, ah that is my counterpart, we are one…. you will be as ours. Makes this sound mystical. Tsukasa is like :y i get to marry Nene-chan too?? … yes…

Commence… having crazy sex with dragons. Relief for Amane, this will satisfy her… she won't be speaking other names into her palms anymore… she'll say thank you to me… AMANE-SAMA…!!

I like the result of their bond though meaning... AFTER… a ceremony… and. sex. Nene-chan does have dragon features, though only seen by others with some magic (like canon…)… and Amane+Tsukasa can now don human forms. But I want it to be only after lol… you have to commit to the dragons, in their real bodies.

Ah kind of dfkljkdlg;df moment for Nene-chan that the like smoke dissipates and the shadow of 2 boys manifests and these bug eyed creeps . omg!!!!!!!!! NOT WHTA YOU EXPECTED… (IMAGINED… HANDSOME…. BIG HUGE TALL STRONG…)…

The prolonged lie is just like. [picks teeth] oh you thought having a dragon was like having a human baby, no. it will take muuuuch longer than 9 months. it's gonna , take years . especially when you're so young, it'll like kill you if it happened any faster… trust me. just wait… be patient…. [and also, have sex with us more… it'll make it stronger or whatever….that was better than I ever imagined, uhghh… ]"

Er, I know it was an ask for my thoughts but sometimes my thoughts are just her thoughts., ,, like after she gives me her thoughts I go wow. [has them] [they're the same now]

Friendly reminder that if you haven’t yet watched the delightful and hilarious Escape from the Bloodkeep, you can watch all six episodes by signing up for the free trial on Dropout! It’s about six diabolical villains who serve Sauron the Lord of Shadows and it’s basically Return of the King right before the final great battle where they will surely finally triumph over the world of men and elves! They couldn’t possibly lose! ...except a couple of halflings go and toss a magic ring crown into a volcano and fuck up everything, and now the six villains have to deal with having the rug pulled out from under them and find a way to save themselves and hopefully score a win for the forces of evil...and also deal with their respective personal issues and learn about the power of friendship.

If nothing else, you should watch it because Matt Mercer plays Kraz-Thun, better known as Leiland, a gay Ringwraith pactwraith who is deeply insecure about his failure to kill two measley little halflings (but to be fair, one of the halflings had a frying pan and hit him very hard with it.) He says daily affirmations to pump himself up and is maybe a little bit in love with the Lord of Shadows and he’s a lovable mess.

Erika Ishii plays Lilith, queen of the spiders and also mom to MANY little spider children who she loves very much and is trying her best for. Her best friend is Efink Murderdeath (played by Amy Vorpahl) who was high elf royalty with an emotionally cold dad and was married to this weird ranger guy who somehow became a king or whatever, until she decided, actually fuck this, and ran off to be evil.

Also hanging around the Bloodkeep is Sohkbarr the Boglord (Mike Trapp), caretaker of every scary monstrous beast the forces of evil had to offer...and he loves them very much. His beloved companion and special boy is a scream beast born of literal nightmares named J'er'em'ih (pronounced Jeremy.) Sohkbarr is basically Hagrid.

And then there’s Markus St. Vincent (Ify Nwadiwe,) pirate and airship captain who sided with the Lord of Shadows because he and his crew wanted to take advantage of these prime plundering opportunities...and when the Lord of Shadows talked about ridding the world of Men, they weren’t talking about us, right? ...right?

And last but certainly not least, the Daughter of Darkness and Betrothed to the Lord of Shadows, Maggie, played by Rekha Shankar! But like, everyone just knows her for her dad and her boyfriend and she wants to be her own person with her own career, you know?

All the characters are so fun and likable and Brennan Lee Mulligan is delightful as the DM. There are plenty of crazy D&D shenanigans and hilarity and surprisingly heartwarming moments as this team of villains becomes a weird little family. It’s excellent. And again, you can watch all six episodes for free if you sign up for the free trial on Dropout! Go give it a try!
