Diatober Day 1+5: Fangs + Bloody
Tumblr media
Quite late, but here's Vampire Yui to start off Diatober! The prompts are from @fruit-of-infidelity 's Diatober list!
More context/ extra thoughts on artwork below cut, if you're interested c:
So there's a webtoon called Orange Marmalade where the MC is a vampire who has to hide her actual identity due to how they are perceived by the human society. Two things: most of the vampires in OM doesn't drink human blood, and instead opts for alternatives like pig blood instead (including the MC) + to hide her fangs, the MC files her teeth everyday so they remain sharp and dull like a normal human.
This Vampire Yui is inspired by those two things! Originally I sketched just Yui dulling her fangs and drinking 'tomato juice' at the rooftop, but I didn't like how they turned out, so I combined them instead, and changed up the setting for the scenario. Yui in this AU doesn't have the convenience of blood bags so she hunts to get her fuel, and sometimes it gets messy. This is one of those times.
Since it's October my head is full of all kinds of vampire Yui so hopefully I'll be able to draw more of her :D

⚰️ Diatober ⚰️
Day 23: Nightmares | Prompts by @fruit-of-infidelity | Masterlist
Tumblr media
((So originally this was going to be something different but I changed the idea while I was listening to the opening to the anniversary no kuni no Alice game from the Alice in the country of hearts series. So enjoy this crack Sayo in Wonderland idea lol))
“Once upon a time, there was a girl named Sayo, who enjoyed spending her Sunday afternoons in the garden with her older sister, Lei,” Rena, the narrator of this story, began her tale. “They would take a tea set out and sit under the trees with their books, since they were both avid readers.”
But to Rena’s surprise, something unexpected happened. 
“Who the hell are you?” Sayo demanded. “Why are you narrating my life?” 
“Because I am the narrator. Every fairy tale needs one.”
“Fairy tale? How ridiculous! This is my life, not a fairy tale.”
“This is a fairy tale and I’m the narrator,” Rena huffed. “Now shut up and act like a non sentient character, Sayo.”
Sayo grumbled under her breath but looked back down at her book. Lei, who was sitting next to her, was unphased. It seemed she had heard nothing. Sayo was the only sentient character here.
Now, back to our tale. Sometimes Sayo became so relaxed on those precious Sunday afternoons that she would begin to doze off. Lei did not approve of such behavior, since it was inappropriate for a lady to be sleeping outside. But no matter how many times Lei lectured her, Sayo would still nap in the garden on occasion when her drowsiness overtook her.
On this particular day, she was beginning to feel a bit sleepy as she was reading. This book wasn’t of her own choosing. It was one her tutor wanted her to read, and it wasn’t particularly interesting. Still, she was trying her best to stay awake.
“Sayo, dear, we’re out of tea,” Lei said after she unsuccessfully tried to pour herself another cup. “I am going inside to get us some more. Please do not fall asleep while I am gone.”
“Yes, sister,” Sayo agreed. 
Lei got up, carefully picking up the tea set before heading inside. Sayo did want to listen to her sister, but as she began reading once more, another wave of drowsiness hit her. She sighed, placing the book down before curling up under the tree.
“It’ll be fine if I close my eyes for just a little bit…” Sayo muttered to herself. “I’ll rest until she gets back.”
Sayo was only out for a few minutes before she heard a noise. It sounded like someone or something getting closer to her. Unbeknownst to her, a white rabbit had gotten into her garden. His curiosity had gotten the better of him and he had snuck over to her to get a closer look.
“It’s…Alice…” he muttered. 
Sayo’s eyes shot open from the shock of hearing an unfamiliar voice. There was a man with black hair and a scarred face leaning over her. But that wasn’t the only thing shocking. This man had white rabbit ears sticking out of his head. 
“W-What the hell?!” She exclaimed. “Who are you? What are you doing in my garden?!”
“I’m…Azusa, the White Rabbit. And you are Alice…You must follow me…to Wonderland.”
“Wonderland…?” She muttered in confusion. “Wait, you’re mistaken. My name isn’t Alice. You have the wrong person.”
“No…you are definitely Alice. Now, follow me.”
Azusa grabbed her hand, pulling her to her feet. He was dragging her behind him as he went back the way he came before she could comprehend it. He only let go of her hand when he reached a burrow on the side of a hill. Sayo knew it certainly wasn’t there before.
She watched as he ducked down and disappeared into the darkness. She knew she should turn back and return to her garden…but she was curious. Why was there a hole here? Why did this man go in? And why was he so insistent she come with him even though they had never met? It would be fine to take a peek, right? She thought so, at least. 
And so, she ducked inside as well, tentatively taking a few steps forward. She could barely see anything. It didn’t seem like Azusa was waiting for her, either. She thought that maybe it would be better to turn back after all. But as she took one more step forward, the ground came out from underneath her. She let out a shriek as she fell. She tried reaching for anything that might stop her fall, but nothing was there. 
Fortunately, the fall was short, so she didn’t have any injuries. Azusa was waiting for her in the middle of a forest. She had no idea how a fall from a burrow could land her in a forest. 
“Are you hurt?” Azusa asked as she got to her feet. 
“No. But you could have warned me about the fall,” she huffed. 
“I’m sorry,” he said but looked a bit amused. “Welcome to Wonderland, Alice….We have been waiting for you…for a long time.”
“What are you talking about? And I told you, my name isn’t Alice.”
“If you want to know…find me later,” he smirked before disappearing into the forest.
“Wait!” 
She chased him, but soon realized that he was much faster than her. He was long gone and she had no idea what direction he had gone at this point. 
“How am I supposed to find him like this?” She grumbled.
Sayo continued to wander through the forest in hopes she would run into him, or anyone that might be able to tell her where she might find him. After a while, a chill ran up her spine. She had the feeling she was being watched. Eventually, she heard rustling in the bushes behind her. 
“Who’s there?” She demanded, flipping around to face them. 
“Well, well~” A red headed boy with a fedora said as he stepped out. “What is a cute girl doing in the forest all alone? It isn’t safe.”
“Yes…” a purple haired boy clutching a teddy bear stepped out with him. “It isn’t safe to wander alone.”
Sayo had come face to face with two of the triplets that inhabited the forest. The red head was Laito, otherwise known as Tweedle Dum, and purple was Kanato, otherwise known as Tweedle Dumbest. The other triplet, Ayato, Tweedle Dee, no longer lived with them. He had moved onto better things quite some time ago.
“Hold on,” Sayo said to Rena. “There’s only two twins in Alice in Wonderland.”
“How did you figure out this is Alice in Wonderland?” Rena sighed.
“How could I not at this point? Now, like I said, there aren’t triplets in the story.”
“Like I said,” Rena’s voice was strained. “This is a third, not widely known, triplet. Are you going to stop questioning everything I say?” 
“Maybe…”
“Let’s continue then,” Rena sighed. 
“I’ve never seen you before,” Laito continued. “And I’m well acquainted with the ladies in Wonderland~”
Sayo had to resist the urge to grimace. This man was definitely a pervert. 
“Yes…Where did you come from?” Kanato asked.
“I was dragged here by someone named Azusa,” she decided to explain to get the information she wanted. “He ran off, so I’m looking for him. Any idea where I might find him?”
“Azusa?” Laito was surprised, while Kanato only glared at the ground. “Nfu~ I see. You must be the Alice girl he’s been searching for. That means you’re special, right?”
“I told him my name isn’t Alice,” she sighed. “My name is Sayo.”
“He knows your name isn’t Alice,” Laito decided to explain. “Alice isn’t a name, it’s a role. But that’s all I’m willing to tell you~”
“If she’s special, we should keep her, right?” Kanato smirked. 
“I like that idea, Kanato,” Laito grinned. “You said your name was Sayo? Stay here with us. We’ll help you.”
She could tell they didn’t have good intentions and began slowly inching backwards.
“Yeah, no thanks. I’ll search for him on my own.”
“Wait-” Laito said, but she took off running. 
Luckily, they didn’t chase her for long, and she soon reached a break in the forest. She found herself somewhere strange instead. She was surrounded by mushrooms and flowers that were taller than her. 
“What kind of place is this…?” She muttered, glancing around in awe as she wandered deeper in. 
She soon saw a cloud of purple smoke billowing above the mushroom tops. She decided to walk towards it, in hopes of finding a new person. Hopefully whoever it was wasn’t as strange as the two Tweedles.
When she entered a clearing, she found a man with black hair and glasses sitting on a large, flat mushroom, smoking from a pipe. It was the pipe making all of the purple smoke. 
Reiji, the Caterpillar, was clearly surprised to see her. He didn’t get visitors very often and he had never seen her face before. 
“You…who are you?” He narrowed his eyes at her. 
He didn’t seem as weird as the Tweedles but he was more off putting.
“Um…my name is Sayo. I’m sorry for interrupting, but I’m looking for a man named Azusa. If you know him, do you know where I might find him?”
“You’re looking for the White Rabbit?” 
This was even more surprising to him. He didn’t know of anyone who sought out Azusa. But then he realized who this girl must be. 
“I see…” he smirked. “And why might you be looking for Azusa?”
“He brought me here but then ran off. I want to know why and how to get back home.”
“You want to go back home? Even though you don’t know who you are?”
“What…? What are you talking about?”
“Who are you?” Reiji repeated his question from earlier.
“Sayo. I said that already.”
“And you’re quite sure about that?” He smirked. 
“Of course. Why would you-?” She began to say but then realized what he was probably getting at. “If you are going to start calling me Alice too, it’s getting old!”
“Don’t lose your temper,” he was only amused. “How do you expect to get information if you do?”
“Do you know where Azusa is or not?” She huffed. 
“I would never keep track of that pathetic White Rabbit.”
“Then this conversation was pointless,” she grumbled, storming past him, deeper into the mushroom grove.
“Alice, huh…?” Reiji muttered, watching her go. “Interesting…”
Sayo soon found herself back in the forest, caught at a crossroads. There were two paths in front of her, and she had no idea which way to go. There were no clues on where Azusa might have gone, just endless forest that she could see down each path. She had no idea how she was supposed to choose. 
“If you’re the narrator, you know how this ends. So why don’t you help me choose?” Sayo grumbled at Rena.
“That’s not how this works,” Rena replied. “Now stop being sentient!”
Sayo rolled her eyes before focusing on the two paths once more. 
“Are ya just gonna keep starin’ at the same thing forever?” A voice suddenly spoke up. 
Sayo looked up in surprise to see a boy laying on one of the branches of the tree in front of her. He had white hair with cat ears sticking out of them and a white and black striped cat tail. She had run into Subaru, the mischievous Cheshire Cat. 
“Huh…” Rena muttered, studying the cat boy. “I’m not sure this role fits with his personality.”
“It absolutely does not,” Sayo agreed.
“Scratch that then,” Rena said.
Sayo had run into Subaru, the ill tempered Cheshire Cat. He was attempting to nap in the tree when he noticed Sayo, who had been standing in place for some time. It was a bit annoying to watch her struggle to figure out where to go, so he decided to speak up to get rid of her. 
“Um…sorry,” Sayo said. “I just don’t know where to go.”
“Where are you trying to go?”
“I’m looking for Azusa, the White Rabbit.”
“You’re looking for him?” Subaru couldn’t imagine why. “Go talk to the Hatter and the March Hare. If he isn’t with those freaks, they’ll probably know where he is.”
“Freaks?” She repeated, unsure if she wanted to speak with them. 
“Yeah, freaks. Pretty much everyone is a freak here. That pervert Laito and his psycho triplet Kanato, stuck up Reiji, lazy ass Shu, the king too. They all are. You can’t get away from it. That’s why I stay away from all of them.”
“I see…” she muttered. 
“Why the hell do you want to see Azusa?”
“He dragged me here and I want to know how to get home.”
Subaru’s brows furrowed. Did that mean what he thought it did? Now that he was looking at her properly, he realized he had never seen her. So that meant she was probably Alice. 
“Be careful,” he decided to warn her, which was normally out of character for him. “I mean it, they’re all freaks. And you don’t know why Azusa brought you here. Go down that path.”
He pointed to the left one. “That will take you to the Hatter’s place.”
“Thanks,” Sayo smiled. “Glad to finally meet someone helpful. What’s your name, by the way? I’m Sayo.”
“Subaru…” he muttered. “Get going. You want to get home, right?”
“Yeah. Thanks again!”
She waved as she headed down the left path. He laid back on his tree, but couldn’t shake the feeling that things were about to go horribly wrong. Alice was in Wonderland. Nothing good would come from that.
At the end of the path, Sayo found what she was looking for. There was a house when the forest opened up. Beside it was a large yard inside a fence. A long table was inside, set up for a tea party. Sitting at the table next to each other was a blonde wearing a large, garish looking hat, and a tall brunette with long hair that was tied back and brown rabbit ears. At the very end of the table was another blonde with mouse ears. His head was lying on the table and he was clearly asleep. 
She had found the house of the Hatter. It probably isn’t hard to guess who is who, but the blonde with the hat was Kou, the Hatter. The brunette was Yuma, the March Hare. And the sleeping blonde was Shu, the Dormouse. He liked to nap anywhere, he just happened to be at the Hatter’s at this current moment. It certainly made no sense, though, considering he didn’t get along with Yuma. 
Kou and Yuma were being so loud that Sayo wasn’t sure she wanted to talk to them anymore. But before she could think of sneaking away, Kou locked eyes with her. 
“Ah! It’s Alice!” He exclaimed with a grin. 
“Huh?” Yuma followed his gaze. “Guess Azusa got her after all…”
“He’ll be so excited she found us,” Kou hopped up from his seat, rushing towards her. “Don’t be shy, Alice, come inside! We’re having a tea party. You should join us.”
Before she could say anything, he grabbed her hand, dragging her inside. He pushed her down into the seat across from Yuma. 
“Um…did I hear you mention Azusa’s name?” Sayo asked. 
“Yup! What about it?” Kou asked.
“Do you know where he is? I’ve been looking for him. He dragged me here but then ran off.”
“He’ll be so happy to know you’ve been looking for him,” Kou grinned. “I don’t know where he is now but he should be stopping by soon.”
“Why are you looking for him?” Yuma asked.
“Well, he told me to, for one. But I also want to know how to go home.”
The two exchanged amused looks.
“You want to go home?” Kou asked. 
“You already are home, Alice,” Yuma stated. “Alice is supposed to be in Wonderland.”
“I’m sick of people calling me Alice,” she glared. “I’m not Alice. My name is Sayo.”
“We know that. But you are Alice,” Kou was now even more amused. 
Before she could lash out at them, Kou continued speaking with a large grin. 
“I know! We should celebrate since you’re here! Let’s have a party! A regular tea party isn’t enough.”
“Hey!” Yuma yelled at Shu, throwing a teacup, which shattered against Shu’s head. “Wake up, lazy ass! We’re having a party for Alice and you’re helping!”
“Too much work…” Shu muttered. 
Sayo now understood exactly why Subaru called them freaks. She needed to get away before things got even more out of hand. If Azusa was supposed to show up, she could wait somewhere along the path for him. But before she could do anything, someone grabbed her hand. She turned, ready to slap whoever it was away, only to see who she had been looking for this whole time. 
“Alice,” Azusa smiled. “So you’ve been looking for me after all.”
“Yes,” she sighed in relief. “Now that I’ve found you, I want you to tell me how to get home.”
“Home?” He was confused. “Wonderland is your home.”
She was annoyed to hear him spouting the same nonsense as the rest of them. 
“No it isn’t, Azusa. My name isn’t Alice and Wonderland isn’t my home. My home is where we first met. I need to go back.”
“I won’t let you,” he frowned, tightening his grip on her hand. “You are Alice…You just don’t want to admit it.”
“See? What did we tell you?” Kou smirked at her. “You’re Alice. Azusa brought you here so you could be with us.”
“We need Alice,” Yuma said. “If we have Alice’s blood, Ruki will come back. He’s obsessed. He thinks the Queen of Hearts is Alice. He wants Alice’s blood, so he’s been trying to steal the Queen from the King of Hearts. But now we have the true Alice. Once we prove it to Ruki, he’ll come back home.”
“Blood…? What the hell are you talking about?!” Sayo demanded. 
“You didn’t know?” Kou chuckled. “I’m the Hatter, Yuma is the March Hare, and Azusa is the White Rabbit…but everyone in this world, apart from the Queen of Hearts, is a vampire.”
“Alice in Wonderland didn’t have vampires!” Sayo exclaimed to Rena.
“Stop questioning my story!” Rena snapped back. “It does now!”
Sayo couldn’t believe her ears. Vampires? Those only existed in fairy tales! She had to get away from them, and fast. She yanked her arm away from Azusa and ran like hell back into the forest. Considering how fast Azusa was, she expected to be caught, but nobody chased her. 
“You’ll come crawling back, Alice!” Kou called to her. “We’re the only ones you can trust in this world!”
“Like hell I can!” She snapped under her breath. 
After running for who knows how long, Sayo found herself lost in the forest once more. She decided to take a break, sitting down on a rock on the side of the path. As much as she didn’t want to, she began to get emotional. What was she going to do now? As far as she knew, Azusa was the only one who knew how she could get home and he didn’t want to tell her. It was the exact opposite. He wanted to use her. Plus, if they were all vampires, she was in danger, wasn’t she? Tears began to slip down her cheeks. She just wanted to go home. She wished she had never followed Azusa into that hole. 
“Why are you crying…?” Subaru grumbled.
“Subaru?!” She exclaimed in surprise, quickly looking around. 
She spotted him in a tree nearby. 
“I…found Azusa,” she explained. “He brought me here because he thinks I’m some special person named Alice. He and his friends want to use me and my blood…They want me to stay with them. He won’t tell me how to get home…”
“I knew something bad would happen…” he sighed. “So everyone really does think you’re Alice.”
“Did you think I was too?”
He didn’t answer, but that was an answer in itself. 
“I just want to go home…” she muttered, new tears threatening to spill. 
“Don’t cry…! I’ll show you how to get to the King’s castle. He can probably tell you how to get home.”
“R-Really…? But what if he thinks I’m Alice too? Won’t he refuse?”
“He has the Queen. He won’t care, even if he does think you’re Alice. If you need to argue with him, just say it will piss everyone off or something. Just be careful. Beheading is his favorite form of punishment.”
“B-Beheading…?” Her face paled.
“You’ll be fine. Just get in and out. Don’t do anything unnecessary. And stay away from the knight. Azusa and the other psychos probably wanted to use you to get him to give up on the Queen.”
“They said something about a person named Ruki, and that he thinks the Queen is Alice. Is that the knight?”
“Yeah, that’s him. You don’t want him thinking you’re Alice. He might do exactly what they want.”
“O-Okay…Let’s go then. Show me how to get to the castle.”
Subaru knocked on the tree he was in. A door suddenly swung open within its trunk, revealing the inside of the Castle of Heart’s garden. 
“Woah…that’s a pretty neat trick. Thank you, Subaru.”
“You better get home. Don’t let me see you again.”
“Okay,” she chuckled. “This is goodbye, then.”
She stepped through the tree and into the castle’s garden. She glanced around, trying to figure out which direction to go to reach the castle since there were multiple paths. As she was wandering in the direction of the castle, she locked eyes with an adorable blonde girl in an elegant pink dress. It was Yui, the Queen of Hearts, who was out on a walk through the garden.
“Oh…Who are you…?” Yui asked.
Sayo had the feeling this girl was probably royalty, so she had to be polite.
“My name is Sayo. I’m sorry for intruding. Are you the princess by chance? Or the Queen?”
She giggled at the thought of being the princess. “I am Yui, the Queen of Hearts. It’s nice to meet you, Sayo. What brings you to the castle garden today?”
“Well, it’s a bit of a strange situation,” she felt better explaining this to a queen than a king. “I was dragged here from my home by Azusa, the White Rabbit. He abandoned me in the forest. When I finally found him again, he refused to tell me how to get home and said he and his friends wanted my blood for something…I just want to get home. A cat boy named Subaru told me the King might know how I can get home.”
“I see…I’m very sorry that happened to you. My husband might know how you can return home. Let’s go see him. I’ll explain the situation to him.”
Yui gently took her hand, leading her to the castle. For the first time since she got here, Sayo actually felt a sense of calm wash over her. She could tell, Yui was a genuinely good person. 
Sayo followed Yui to the throne room, where her husband had been when she last saw him. And sure enough, he was still there. He had just finished sentencing a soldier to death by beheading for messing up the roses in a section of the garden. 
The King of Hearts was known by multiple names. Ayato, the King, or his former title, Tweedle Dee, the third triplet spoken of earlier that had moved on to better things. The triplets’ mother was the former Queen of Hearts, Cordelia. She was so ashamed of the triplets that she abandoned them in the woods when they were children. When Ayato learned of this, he decided to overthrow her. Ever since then, he had ruled as the King of Hearts.
"Are you serious...?" Sayo muttered, side eyeing Rena.
"Don't start," Rena sighed.
“Who the hell is this?” Ayato questioned when he spotted Sayo with Yui. 
Sayo stayed quiet as Yui explained the situation. 
“Heh,” Ayato smirked once she was finished. “If that White Rabbit brought her, that means she’s Alice. Why would I help you go home?”
“Because it would piss everyone else off,” Sayo stated. 
Ayato certainly didn’t expect that response from her. He couldn’t help but laugh. 
“Well, ya got a point. I don’t need you since I got Yui. If you go home, nobody can use the power of Alice’s blood against me.” 
“Did you say…Alice’s blood?”
Sayo turned to see a man with black hair standing in the doorway. He was wearing a uniform similar to the soldier’s from earlier and had a sword on his hip. She had a bad feeling that this was Ruki, the person who definitely should not find out that everyone thought she was Alice. 
“This girl…is Alice?” Ruki took a few steps towards her. 
“No, my name is Sayo.”
“You would love to get your hands on Alice’s blood, wouldn’t you?” Ayato chuckled. “Well that’s too bad. I’m sending her home. Azusa brought her here for nothing.”
“Azusa brought her here?” Ruki glanced at Ayato before his eyes landed on Sayo. “She’s not going anywhere.”
He drew his sword, pointing it at her. “Alice’s blood belongs to me. Don’t interfere, Ayato.”
“Tch,” Ayato glared. “Who do you think you’re talking to? Guards! Deal with Ruki!”
Multiple soldiers surrounded Ruki, but they all appeared hesitant to attack him. It was Ruki who trained them, after all. Even if they outnumbered him, they doubted they could defeat him. 
“S-Sayo, over here,” Yui called Sayo over.
She didn’t need to be told twice. Sayo rushed to Yui’s side. 
“Yui, take her and go,” Ayato ordered. “You know the locked door in the garden? It opens for outsiders. That will take her home.”
Ayato handed Sayo the key before pushing the two in the direction of the other exit to the throne room. Yui grabbed Sayo’s hand and the two ran from the room. They continued to run as fast as they could as Yui led the way back out to the garden. She knew how strong Ruki was. There was no way the soldiers would be able to hold him off for long. 
“The door is in the far corner of the garden,” Yui pointed in the right direction. “If Ruki catches up, I’ll try to talk to him. You keep running in that direction and use the key, okay?”
“A-Alright!”
It wasn’t long before they could hear someone coming after them and not much longer after that, they could see Ruki catching up. He certainly was fast…
“Go, Sayo! I’ll talk to him!” Yui let go of her hand. 
“O-Okay…Thank you, Yui!”
Sayo continued to run, glancing back once to see what was happening. Ruki really did stop to talk to Yui. It didn’t seem like the conversation was going very well, though. 
As she was nearing the corner of the garden, she could hear someone coming after her again. She could only assume Yui couldn’t talk Ruki out of coming after her. She had to be close, though. She couldn’t stop now. She couldn’t let everyone’s efforts be in vain.
When she turned the corner, she spotted the door. It was a simple, wooden door along the corner of the large garden wall. But the strange thing about it was the weird golden sheen along the whole thing.
As she was jamming the key into the lock, she saw Ruki turn the corner. He was clearly alarmed by the fact she was at the door and quickened his pace. Her heart was already beating a mile a minute but that made it feel like it jumped out of her chest and she quickly turned the key, unlocking the door. 
“Ruki!” She heard Azusa’s voice.
“Hurry! Grab her!” Kou yelled. 
She threw the door open as Ruki advanced on her. She could see her garden. The blanket the tea set had been on was still spread out underneath the tree. Her and Lei’s books were still on it. She was so close…!
She was halfway through the door when he managed to snag the back of her shirt. 
“No…!” She managed to grab onto a tree branch, stopping him from dragging her back.
“Jeez…I thought I was done helping you,” she heard Subaru sigh before he began yelling at Ruki, Azusa, Kou and Yuma. “You bastards are interrupting my nap! Get the hell out of here!”
He had appeared on the garden wall above the door.
“This doesn’t have anything to do with you, Cheshire Cat,” Ruki snapped, but was surprised by the sudden interruption. 
While he was distracted by Subaru, Sayo swung her foot back, kicking Ruki in the chest. The impact made him lose his grip on her shirt. She threw herself all the way in, allowing Subaru to slam the door shut. 
Sayo fell to her knees, letting out a sigh of relief. She really wished she could thank Subaru one last time. All he had done since they met was help her. She probably owed him her life. 
She climbed to her feet, stumbling over to where she had been sitting with Lei before this whole ordeal had happened. If she wasn’t exhausted before, she sure was now. 
“Sorry, sister…but I’m going to sleep…”
She laid down under the tree, passing out the moment her head hit the blanket. 
When Sayo woke up, she wasn’t under a tree. Lei wasn’t her sister and Rena wasn’t some weird person narrating a fairy tale. She had been sleeping in her own bed the whole time.
“What in the fresh hell…?” Sayo muttered as she stared up at the ceiling. 
She didn’t know what to say or do. That was such a strange experience, even for a dream. After a moment, her thoughts settled a bit. 
“God, I’m glad that was just a dream.”

// Started off with something a little less spooky~ It’s just a shirtless Ryuuto brushing his teeth, harmless really. Thought it would be fun to use “fangs” for an unusual piece, since vampires are ALL about those little beauties 💅

Day Three: Bride/Groom
Tumblr media
// Not exactly the art you were probably expecting for today but, I thought I’d bring back the Twitter mini-manga style from 2020 with this prompt for something a little silly~ Cue poor Ryuuto being made fun of by his half-siblings AND Yui ><

Day Six: Rivalry
Tumblr media
// Nothing too animated today for this prompt, but a CG-inspired piece that I might use for More, Blood since this is a sneak peak at the outfit Ryuuto wears in the next route ><
