Happy Birthday Charlie! @heyitszev

After your comment here I imagine all of Charlie's numerous pets wear sweaters now and then 🤭 Don't mind the kneazle, it's secretly happy, but it's, you know, a cat. A proper cat has to look like it hates everyone.

Hogtober, Day 16: MC x MC

✨ Dueling Pianos AU with Damien and @heyitszev’s Charlie 🥰🥰🥰

This past spring and into early summer, Zev and I went down the glorious rabbit hole that is MC x MC and wrote a few one-shots centered around Damien and Charlie as enemies to lovers.

Here's an excerpt (this part written by the incredibly talented @heyitszev) from a one-shot we wrote together, cast away this mask of clay:

"On one end, this disdain for Damien that was deeply rooted in their shared past, their shared life, on the other, this pull towards him. This feeling that Damien knew both sides of Charlie, that Damien was gentle where Charlie was rough, that fighting side by side revealed that they fit together in a way no one else could. "

One final note: If you haven't yet read Zev's fic "We Shall Be Monsters," what the heck are you waiting for????? I will forever and always shout to the rooftops about this fic. Sebastian is a freaking WEREWOLF, people, and Charlie is one of my favorite OCs of all time. Need I say more?

[celestial--sapphic]

@heyitszev's MC Charlie has a chocolate frog card in We Shall Be Monsters 🐸🍫 Combine that we us chatting about chocolate frog lore and me needing a break from my essay and... tada! ✨

The message on the back is a nod to a line from Sebastian in the fic 👇

"...On one occasion, though they prefer their privacy, they signed their chocolate frog card for my youngest son when he was visiting from Hog- hang on, you have a chocolate frog card?!” Sebastian asked, folding the paper over, staring at you. 

“Yes,” you grumbled. 

“Well, now I need one,” Sebastian teased. “Will you sign it for me if I ask nicely?”

“Shut up, keep reading.”

POV: waiting for @its-charlie-cagney to come and teach me that fancy new dueling he keeps going on and on about.

Also, don't ask what happened to my shirt. Had a bit of a struggle with the kneazels earlier.

Wanted to draw some of my favourite MCs for practice. This fandom is so inspiring! I thought that maybe I would try the MC drawing challenge, but while working on these, I realised that my drawing muscles are still too stiff. I will keep this idea in mind for the future when I warm up enough because I LOVE MCs!

Hellendil @theravenchild — I didn't have enough space for a thestral :( But I finally did him justice without dressing him in a uniform!

Elland @lil-grem-draws — Yes, I'm aware he's indifferent to sweets. It's for Will. Unless someone grabs it first.

Sally @siboom777 — It's the weirdest toy I could come up with XD Thanks again for drawing Chris!

Charlie @heyitszev — I really enjoyed this story [link to AO3], there are so many brilliant ideas!

Lyla @keri-mcberry — One of my biggest source of drawing inspiration. And the most adorable MC award goes to Lyla!

Ruth @phinik — I need more lore about her family curse! Also, seeing her and Ominis together in my feed makes me melt.

Ch. 1: "Journeys End in Lovers' Meeting" // Hogwarts: Legacy AU OC x OC

So, I may or may not have written this at 5 AM... LMAO. Thank you to @heyitszev (unreliablenarrator on AO3) for letting me borrow his OC, Charlie Cagney, from his series To be Loved is to be Changed (which you should check out right now!).

Note: Charlie is pre-transition in this chapter.

Damien is my OC from the Like Moths to a Flame series.

Without further ado... ENJOY!

Chapter 1: "Journeys End in Lovers' Meeting"

Early December 1889

London

Damien never expected that by the end of an unusually warm winter day in December, he’d be engaged to be wed. And to a young lady, at that. Brilliant.

Well, to be fair, who else would he be engaged to? A young gentleman? No, that would never do. Not now, not ever. But it was one thing to know that he’d one day have to get married to a woman, and another thing entirely to be shackled to an actual one. It certainly wasn’t ideal. 

Speaking of the aforementioned girl…

“I’d rather not be in this scenario either, you know,” she said. Charlene said. Damien should probably start getting used to referring to her by her name.

“Hmmm?” Damien replied, still deep in thought. He fiddled with his wristwatch. Charlene… something felt off about that name, but Damien couldn’t quite place his finger on it. He supposed the young woman standing before him didn’t look like a Charlene. On second thought, who did she look like?

“This engagement,” she spat out the last word like it made a particularly bad taste in her mouth, then flushed. “I’m sorry, that was rude of me.”

“No, no need to apologize,” Damien said with a smirk. “We’re on the same page.” He could appreciate Charlene’s bluntness, at the very least.

She breathed a sigh of relief. After an awkward pause in which a maid alighted at their table carrying a tea tray and setting all the various accouterments before them, Charlene changed the subject: “When did your father tell you about me?”

Damien took a sip of tea before replying. “Mere moments before we stepped out of the carriage.”

“Really?” Charlene asked, her eyes wide. Damien noticed for the first time that they were a rich brown, nearly his shade too, if not for the gold specks in his own eyes. She was also ignoring her tea entirely, which struck Damien as odd.

He nodded in response to her question. 

“That is… deeply unfortunate.” 

Damien held back a laugh. “How long have you known about me?”

“A few weeks. It seems as if our engagement is all my aunt can talk about.” Charlene tugged at her long, dark braid nervously. Damien could hear her feet shuffling under the table, even through the voluminous folds of her dress. She seemed uncomfortable. That made two of them.

“Oh?” He took another sip of his tea.

She coughed. “The size of your estate speaks for itself.” 

Damien couldn’t help himself; he released a hearty laugh. “At least I can bring something to our eventual union.” Oh, he really shouldn’t have said that. Damien just barely managed to hold back a grimace.

“Whatever do you mean?” 

“Nothing, nothing,” Damien responded, setting down his tea cup. He squinted out the window to his immediate left. The rays of sunlight coming through the partially open curtains were blinding. “Nice day we’re having, hmmm?”

Charlene narrowed her eyes. “You can’t just change the subject like that.” Oh, she was a perceptive one…

“I can and I will,” he said with as straight of a face as he could muster. 

“Charming,” was all Charlene said in reply. She seemed decidedly unimpressed, but at least she didn’t pry further.

Their conversation stayed light and superficial for the remainder of tea. As the conversation plodded along in the dullest of manners, Damien stole a surreptitious glance at his father at the table across the room. He seemed to be enjoying his conversation with Charlene’s aunt. Lucky him.

“Am I boring you?” Charlene broke through his rumination. 

Damien glanced up, caught off guard by the interruption. "Oh, no, not at all," he replied quickly, trying to regain his composure. "Just lost in thought, I suppose."

Charlene's expression softened slightly. She hummed, presumably in contemplation. Who knew though? Damien found her very difficult to read, which was unusual for him. 

He offered her a sheepish smile. "My sincerest apologies. It’s been… a day.” He snuck a glance at his watch. “And it’s barely past two o’ clock.”

Charlene shook her head in mock dismay. "The trials and tribulations of the aristocracy."

Despite his better judgment, Damien found himself laughing. Again. Something about Charlene amused him. It was… pleasantly surprising?

Did he find her attractive? It seemed impossible - he had never found a girl pretty before - but there was something in her manner, the way she held herself, that he found captivating. He shook his head and was about to resume the conversation when his father cleared his throat from across the room. 

“It is quite refreshing to see you two getting along so well,” Mr. Evans said as he stood up. “And so quickly too,” he added, amidst the sound of his chair scraping against the wood floor. 

Charlene’s aunt followed his father’s lead, clapping her hands in an annoyingly gleeful manner. Out of the corner of his eye, Damien observed Charlene tilting her head ever so slightly to hide a grimace. 

He tried to lock eyes with her in an unspoken moment of solidarity, but her gaze remained fixed on her lap. Her composure was, frankly, admirable. Not that Damien would ever say it to her face. 

As the adults, presumably, prepared to say their farewells, Damien seized the opportunity to have one final conversation with Charlene, alone. "Speaking of getting along," he interjected, "I believe Charlene and I have some details to discuss regarding future arrangements. Privately,” he made sure to tack on at the end.

Charlene’s head shot back up, a curious glint in her eye. 

Mr. Evans nodded in approval, completely oblivious to Damien’s deception. Nothing new there. "Excellent, excellent," he exclaimed. "It's wonderful to see such enthusiasm for the wedding."

Damien offered a tight smile. If only everyone in the room knew the truth behind the facade he had built around himself. As intrigued as he was by Charlene, as confused by what entranced him so, he knew that he could never love her. Not in the way that a normal man loved a woman. Would she mind? Would he ever deign to tell her? 

Charlene’s eyes were still fixed on his face, searching. Something about the way she was looking at him was worrisome. Damien gulped. This girl was going to be a proverbial thorn in his side, wasn’t she?

MCVerse Schitt's Creek edition! Had so much fun with this one and there are so many clips I still have to use, so stay tuned for Pt 2!

@a-usernamelol @heyitszev @theladyofshalott1989 @the-chaotic-scilla-aster

[honeybadgerdontcare394]

Yet more MCverse stuff! These are longer clips so there's gonna be less per video but I'm obsessed!

[a-usernamelol]

Oooooh! I think with Allan it depends! On what? Well one who the other people are. I like to think he had wholesome little habits for each and every friend!

Natty:

-He’s very polite with her and often makes smalltalk, but unless Natty starts up the more serious conversation, he’s a bit reserved. Him and Natty will often buy each other stuff they know the other will like- not because they like each other, their relationship is purely platonic, but they like buying each other weird shit and seeing how the other reacts.

Poppy:

-Absolute chatterbox! He LOVES his pets, and of course the beasts he rescues. He could talk to Poppy for HOURS- ESPECIALLY because Poppy doesn’t seem to mind Allan’s scatterbrain and him and her will just sit and talk! Poppy knows he’ll shut up eventually and has the patience of a God, because she’ll let him run his mouth until he gets tired. She thinks its very wholesome.

Amit:

-Amit kind of steps on Allan’s toes a lot, often pointing out what us already obvious to Allan. This isn’t really Amit’s fault however- he’s used to people not knowing what he’s talking about! Allan eventually just shuts up and lets Amit babble as he pleases, but not without adding his own sass about it. Allan and Amit sometimes just chat, and I’m 90% sure that even if Sebastian “smarty pants” Sallow walked by he wouldn’t have any idea what they were talking about. I like to think Allan and Amit have a wholesome “older brother and younger brother” kind of dynamic, almost.

-Garreth:

Please, for the love of god, DONT assign these two as partners in ANY class. Despite Allan normally being a good student, if you put these two together, they INSTANTLY become the iconic boys that take nothing seriously and are snickering at the teacher from the back. We all know em. They become them when together. Keep them apart at all costs in class.

Leander:

-Eeeh. Allan and him aren’t really FRIENDS. More like associates. Passing classmates who sort of get along.

Imelda:

-Allan and Imelda compere over everything- BUT they still are friends. Allan is a determined lil shit and will do anything over and over again until he gets it right. In fact, this happened on the final flight course! He KEPT going for a whole day, to the point IMELDA told him to take a break! They do regularly compete over dumb things, but that doesn’t mean they don’t just hang out! Allan and Imelda have raided many a candy shop in their friendship.

Ominis:

-Allan did NOT like Ominis at first, thinking he was quite the ass. However, as time went on, Allan grew a respect for Ominis and his high morals. They became proper friends from there. Allan has often wondered exactly what spell Ominis uses for his blindness, mainly just out of curiosity, but doesn’t ASK because he doesn’t want to pry. Eventually Ominis just straight up bonks him on the head for it, annoyed he keeps staring at his wand. Allan trusts Ominis with asking for advice, and there has been many a time Allan had run up to Ominis seeking his moral standing.

Sebastian:

-Gay people. The end.

OK OK I’m joking I’ll talk about their dynamics. Allan and Sebastian are both troublesome the second you put them together, however, the twist is, they’re both clever enough to not get caught. Like Ominis, Allan will come to Sebastian with quandaries- the difference is Sebastian does the same with Allan. They intentionally annoy each other, from Sebastian flicking Allan’s hair into his face to Allan chucking a book at Sebastian’s head. It’s not unlike them to argue, but it doesn’t happen very often, and when it does, it’s over something big.

MCVERSE CAHRACTERS WOO!:

Charlie:

-Allan kinda is just chill with him. They kind of just… Traumabond, if that makes sense. Oh? You’re messed up in the head? Well I’M messed up in the head! We should be friends! Essentially. Charlie probably holds Allan back from doing stupid stuff, a bit like Ominis.

Scilla:

-The amount of respect that Allan has for her is incredible, knowing how sassy he is. Her and Ominis are held at high regard to him. He usually steers clear of her to not step on her toes, but it doesn’t seem to stop him from sometimes doing it anyway. Usually intentionally.

Damien:

-Believe it or not, Allan and Damien actually didn’t get along at first! They kind of wigged each other out. Allan thought Damien was TOO nice and was untrustworthy because of it- Damien’s cushy background not helping Allan be any less sour (and maybe slightly jealous). Damien probably just tried to be as nice as possible to Allan, who kept him at arm’s length for a long while. Eventually, Allan cracked and they are very much wholesome dumbasses.

Gilbert:

-Allan also didn’t trust Gilbert a lot (can you see the pattern here) at first. Gilbert grew on him a lot faster than Damien, because Gilbert didn’t just try to be nice: He knew exactly what to say and read Allan emotionally like a book. Allan at first did NOT like that. Hated it in fact, that Gilbert could sass him back and get away with it. However, they soon found common ground in the friendly competition that comes with the sass, and have no problem with being annoying to each other anymore. Get along like two peas in a pod- two VERY argumentative peas, that is!
