More Jomei ♢ brief story context below (warning for whump/dark themes)

After being purchased from the brothel where he worked, Jomei spends a year confined by a man who does everything to break him. He’s kept in windowless rooms, starved, assaulted, manipulated, and even when he’s finally willing and obedient, the man still goes as far as removing his legs so he can’t escape.

When Jomei is finally rescued, he ends up in the care of his childhood friend - the son of a local craftsman. His friend helps Jomei through recovery and even carves him a new set of legs, complete with a few magic runes so they respond more naturally to Jomei’s movements.

[startersword]

ALRIGHT LADS HERE IT IS. my new, second spiderverse oc :3 I haven't drawn him yet but I'll copy and paste his intro under the cut.

Alright...Let's do this one last time.

My name is Jomei Joestar. And for the past 4 months, I've been the one and only Spiderman!

It all started when I was given this pendant for my birthday...I thought it was just a regular old necklace--my old man said it was a gift passed down from generations. But when I touched it...

Snap!

Boom. My whole life changed that day. Since then, I acquired a 'stand'...

｢ WHAT'S UP DANGER 」 !

[wynought]

since i haven't seen it being pointed out before

all of the first stoats' names essentially mean "light"

kiran is of sanskrit origin meaning "ray of light" (and, according to wikipedia, an explicitly unisex name), uri is a hebrew name meaning "my light", hester is a variant of the name esther (of biblical/jewish origin) which comes from the same old persian root as the word "star", and, while i didn't find any particularly reliable source, various babyname websites at least seem to agree that jomei is a japanese name meaning "spread light"

additionally, their names seem to correlate with their purpose/position in last bast:

jomei is the speaker, they are in charge of propaganda - quite literally spreading the belief system and worldview of the first stoats aka the Light. it feels like this name is extremely straightforward in its meaning, but i was also unable to find much else on it, so there may be some additional hidden truth that i'm missing so far.

hester is the silence (the one with the gas mask missing their lower jaw and tongue) and their sphere of influence is secrets. now, i'm no religious scholar, and i have all of my information from quite literally the introductory paragraphs of the wikipedia article on the name esther. however, it seems that queen esther only took this name after ascending to the throne of persia to hide her true identity. this is reflected in the hebrew root of the name esther translating into "hide"/"conceal". (i am unable to provide more info on this, but anybody with a working understanding of how hebrew works and/or with more insight on the book of esther, feel free to interject/correct/add on to this)

uri is our beloved stoat pope. apparently, the name uri comes from the verb for "to shine" (to either be or to give light) and the mark of possession, resulting in the first connotation i mentioned earlier - "my light". this possessive marker, however, can also be interpreted as the name Yah which would be an abbreviation of YHWH - a marker of the divine, if you will. Therefore, Uri can also mean "Yah is my light", a very fitting name for the stoat whose department we only see called "faith".

i was unable to find a deeper meaning behind kiran's name, although to me "beam of light" feels very much like a name befitting the first stoats' leader. considering the way they commanded the wolf of theseus, it also seems to reflect the way their magic/their brand of control worked (their line of sight was part of how they controlled the wolf, indicating that was a key part of either their magic or the conditioning inflicted on the wolf - i'm partial towards the latter, considering how the wolf reacted to tula after she healed it). if anybody has anything more concrete to offer, though, i am all ears!

anyways, the first stoats' names are really cool, and we as a fandom don't talk enough about them because they died so fast. huge props to aabria for this fun bit of world building!

(disclaimer: as mentioned above, i have no background in theology or judaism, nor do i have any deeper knowledge of sanskrit, hindi, and indian mythology/folklore, nor japanese, and japanese mythology which would give me a deeper understanding of these names. my information comes from google and while i did try my best to verify the claims, i am fallible and happen to currently be very tired, so please correct me, if i made any mistakes!)

DARK FATE — General Prologue [CG]

「Monologue」

Blood is thicker than water. Are we meant to believe a statement like that so blindly? Can familial bonds truly be worth the sacrifice of the relationships we have forged on our own? Perhaps they sculpted us into the people we are today. But can they claim they know us in depth? Can they claim that they will love us even if we do not become what they wished us to? Will they still care for us when we disagree? When we no longer wish to continue what they have started? These shadows press upon us worlds more than the gold of this crown. When our time comes, may we be buried beneath the earth. And not the weight of our name.

[ Location: No Man's Land — Demon Realm ]

Paws land heavily upon the ground. A large wolf of an obsidian coat charges through the overgrown. A young woman sits on its back with ease, clutching to its fur.

DJ: Mind your step, Mystic. This area is notorious for dangerous vegetation.

Mystic: Fret not, my loving Queen. This humble servant shall bring you back safely.

DJ: Oh, shush, boy. Quit jesting.

Mystic: Hahaha! Alright, I get it. I'll be careful.

( I've never been around this area. I suppose listening to mother this once would be for the best. )

The wind whistles loudly. Mystic suddenly slows to a stop.

Mystic: ... ... ...

DJ: ... Mystic? What's the matter?

Mystic: Can't you smell that?

DJ looks around, seemingly taking in her surroundings. She perks up.

DJ: ... ... Yes. Yes, I do.

Mystic: It's...

DJ: ——familiar.

Mystic kneels. DJ climbs down. He gently pushes her to hide.

Mystic: ( What... is that smell?

Why does it seem so familiar? )

—Rustle—

Mystic: ( Something...

There's something coming this way—— )

A branch cracks. Mystic pounces. A young woman startles under the shadows of the forest. Multiple other wolves stand around her.

??? (1): ... ... !

A pair of unknown individuals hurry into view just moments after. Mystic takes a furious stance, his ears pinned back.

DJ: ——Mystic, halt!

Mystic: ... ...?

( What's going on? )

??? (2): Who's there?! Come out right now!

Leaves rustle. DJ emerges. Mystic takes a protective stance in front of her.

??? (2): ... ...

... ... What——?

DJ: Sh—...

... ... Shin?

Mystic: ( ... ... Shin? The Shin?! )

DJ: ... Sob...

DJ walks closer to the man, tears pouring. Her hands quiver, hesitant to even reach for him.

DJ: You're alive...

... ... You're alive!

All of you are!

??? (3): ... ... ...

DJ: Lord Carla.

Carla: I never expected to see you again.

DJ: I could say the same, sir.

Magic swirls. Mystic emerges back into view in his original shape.

Mystic: Mother, what's going on? Who are these people?

Shin: ... ... "Mother"?

Mystic: ( Wow, he's mad now. )

DJ: Shin... this is Mystic. My son.

——Our son.

Carla: What?

Shin: ... ...

Our——!?

Mystic: ( We don't look all that alike. I've certainly got his eyes, though.

——One of them, at least. )

Shin: How could he... ...!?

DJ: Well... don't you remember our final night together?

Shin: ... ... Huh.

Mystic: Okay, too much information——

Shin: ... ... …

Mystic: ( He's staring at me now. )

What?

Shin: I was just thinking how you don't look like me at all.

Mystic: That so? Hah, thank god.

Shin: You——!

Mystic: I know what you're insinuating. I don't appreciate it.

Mystic: And hey, look here——

Mystic inches closer to Shin. He taps a finger right under his left eye.

Mystic: Now, tell me... which eye are you missing?

Shin: ... ...

Carla: As it would seem... Though he lacks many of your features, this boy is truly your flesh and blood.

「Monologue」

The Founders guided us back to their palace. The Banmaden. All with the promise of explaining what had happened in the aftermath of that long distant defeat. "How did you escape?" Mother asked. As it would turn out, the Lunar Eclipse gave the First Bloods the chance to escape. Even with it being a few months away, it’s proximity was enough to weaken the barrier and for their combined power to shatter it. They wandered through the Demon Realm for days, looking over other kingdoms and their linked territories. Mother spoke of her life after she left the Banmaden all those years ago. It was a story I had heard thousands of times. I have never been fond of standing around listening to the elders, so I decided to take the chance to view the terrain.

[ Location: Balcony — Banmaden ]

Mystic: ( So... this is the Banmaden. The Palace of the First Bloods.

I had only ever seen it from afar. Up until now, it and the surrounding area had been locked away by KarlHeinz's magic.

Can't imagine what it must have been like... )

??? (1): ——Excuse me.

Mystic: ... ... !

( Oh…! It's that woman from before. She didn’t say much at our first meeting, so I didn’t really have a chance to pay her any mind.

She really looks a lot like Lord Carla…

I didn't even feel her approach. Scary... )

Hey, um...

??? (1): Kazuha.

Mystic: Kazuha…

Sorry. Didn't hear you step out here.

—Rattle—

Kazuha: Is this yours?

Mystic: ( Father's revolver! )

How did you——?!

Kazuha: You left it unattended at the lounge down the hallway.

What an odd object. It is similar to a cannon. Though, perhaps a smaller version of it.

Mystic: Could you give it back—

Kazuha: I can hear the many bits and parts on the inside.

What is this machine called?

Mystic: ( Has she never seen a firearm? What is she going on about a "smaller cannon"? )

It's a firearm. A revolver. You put bullets in it.

Kazuha: Revolver?

—Click—

Kazuha: Bullets? Are those the cannon balls that go through the mouth of this machine?

Mystic: No, that's not—

Sigh, give it here. Lemme show you.

( Even a child would know how a revolver works... )

( ... Don't tell me... she's actually never seen one? )

( Just how long have these people been locked away in this place? )

Mystic jerks the cylinder open. It clicks and the bullets rattle. He angles the firearm for Kazuha to see.

Mystic: This little thing here is a bullet. They go in the empty spaces inside the cylinder. When you pull down the hammer—the little lever here on the back—it turns, then it's ready to fire.

Kazuha: Remarkable.

... My mother would have loved this artifact...

——Where did you get this?

Mystic: Ah, well, it was a gift from my father.

Kazuha: I wasn't aware Shin owned something like this.

Mystic: No, not that guy.

I'm talking about the man that was betrothed to my mother.

Even though his feelings were never reciprocated, he loves my mother very much. And for that, he raised me like I was his flesh and blood.

Kazuha: ... ... What a spineless man.

Mystic: Huh?

Kazuha: Since you know so much about this machine, I can assume you have the proper knowledge to wield it?

Mystic: Oh, um... sure?

I don't use it often, though.

Kazuha: ... ...

I am sure we will find a use for it.

Mystic: ... ...?

—Fade—

[ Location: Deserted Street — Human Realm ]

—Bang!—

A demon yelps. The bullet quickly consumes the intestines it has latched onto with a sizzle. He drops, howling in pain.

Mystic: Here I thought everyone knew not to make deals with Vipers. Have you learned nothing from history?

Now look at you—

Weeping like a child while you clutch to your guts.

Demon Target: N—no! Have mercy...!

I—I just need some time to get the funds!

It wasn't my intention to disappear!

Mystic: Uh-huh. I'm sure.

Kazuha: Mystic, quit wasting time.

Mystic: Oh, c'mon! Their sob stories are always the best part of the job.

Kazuha: My father said to return early tonight. We have an important matter to discuss during dinner.

Mystic: Ain’t no one told you to tag along.

Kazuha: It is exactly because of that attitude that I did. You have started taking too long. Perhaps a proper deadline would keep you moving.

Demon Target: Yo—you won't get away with this! Just wait until my boss hears of——

Mmmf...!

—Click—

Mystic: Ah-ah-ah. No talkin' with your mouth full. That's not proper at all.

And anyways, my boss—right over there—she’s way scarier. I can promise you it.

Now open wide and taste the barrel well, yeah? I gotta aim for your palate properly.

Kazuha: Mystic.

Mystic: Ugh... fine.

Demon Target: Mmf! Sto——!!

—Bang!—

Mystic: Aww, man. Dude had such a pretty face, too. Now look at this mess.

Kazuha: We should head back.

Be sure to clean yourself up before you even take a step in the grand hall. My father will not be pleased with your appareance.

Mystic: Roger that, boss. I'm sure my mother wouldn’t be all that jolly about it either.

Mystic tucks the bloody revolver into a pocket on the inside of his jacket. Crackling and hissing can be heard as the bullets consume all organic matter from the deceased demon's corpse.

Mystic: What's Lord Carla gotta talk to everyone about, anyway?

Kazuha: My father did not specify any topic, strangely enough…

Mystic: ( It's always something with that old man... )

How fuckin' exciting.

Kazuha: Watch your mouth.

Mystic: Sigh... yeah, yeah.

( Not sure what it is...

But I have a really terrible feeling about this. )

—Fade—

[ Location: Grand Hall — Banmaden ]

Utensils clink against plates. The voices of the family echo in the mostly empty grand room.

Carla: ——that is the human with the heart of Menae's daughter.

Mystic: ... ... ...

( Oh... fuck. )

Carla: Flashes of this memory came to me earlier today.

I am not sure how this could have happened, but it must have manifested for a reason.

Shin: What maniac put the heart of a demon in a human body?

Kazuha: ...What are we meant to do, father?

Carla: I have not quite made up my mind about it.

But as far as I am concerned, we cannot allow the pawns of KarlHeinz to continue having possession of something so valuable.

Mystic: ( "Pawns of KarlHeinz"... huh? I suppose that's one way of putting it. )

Shin: Are you saying we should take the girl away?

Carla: I see taking that route as the only viable option at this moment.

Mystic: ... ... ...

( I know exactly who they're talking about.

Oh, Yui, you poor lamb... it really seems like you can't catch a break... )

DJ: ... ... ...

Mystic: ( Mother is looking at me.

She knows of the little lamb. I've spoken to her about Yui multiple times in the past. )

DJ: ... ... ...

Shin: What is it, Des?

Mystic subtly shakes his head.

Mystic: ( Please don't—— )

DJ: ... ... Sigh...

It's nothing, dear. I'm just a little tired, that's all.

Shin: Hm, that's so?

—Creak—

Mystic: ——I'm full. Thank you for the meal.

DJ: Mystic, where are you going? Everyone else hasn't finished.

Mystic: I'm sorry, mother. There're some things I forgot to take care of.

Mystic gives DJ a quick side-hug and the rest at the table a short bow.

Mystic: Enjoy your meal!

—Footsteps—

Carla: ... ... ...

DJ: Fo—forgive him, my lord. He's not exactly used to——

Carla: No need. It is none of my concern.

——Kazuha...

Kazuha: Yes, sir.

「Monologue」

I rushed out of the palace. The wheels of the motorcycle kicked up dust as it spun to exit through the Banmaden's gates. My Familiars emerge from the surrounding forest, barking and whining as they chased close behind. I have to warn them. I must get to them before they are found.

Mystic peers up at the sky through crooked branches. The wind whistles in his ears.

Mystic: ( The moon…

… it’s finally turning bloody soon. )

Love Trial - Jomei Asano ~THORN~

[gilly-moon]

⊹₊⟡ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭 ⟡ ݁₊ .

And after nearly a decade, Comet finally has a story: made of pure stardust, the being named ‘Comet’ fell to Earth and was promptly taken for observation. Scientists discovered he felt no pain, and could regrow any piece of himself that was removed. They began cutting him apart one little piece at a time to study him, letting the pieces regrow before taking another. The removed specimens only lasted a short time before dissolving into dust, so many pieces were removed multiple times. Comet himself seemed to have no thoughts or opinions on the matter, cooperating wordlessly with even the most gruesome of procedures. Some of the scientists believe he is nothing more than an empty vessel, a husk of stardust that mimics whichever species it makes contact with. Others believe he may be biding his time, waiting to strike them all down in revenge when they least expect it. But day after day, Comet continues to be silently obedient, watching all those around him with his pale, glistening eyes.

Eventually, I like to imagine something goes horribly wrong at the facility where he’s housed. Maybe a different entity housed there breaks free, and begins hunting down every human. Maybe Comet must be protected from the entity, as consuming his stardust will make it stronger. Or maybe Comet allows the entity to feast on pieces of him when it needs energy, and he remains indifferent to the pleas of the humans for help. Maybe there’s no other entity, and it’s Comet who decides he’s done with being experimented on. Maybe he decides it’s time to go home to the stars, and becomes a walking supernova that disintegrates anyone who tries to stop him leaving. I’m leaving that part open for now! Maybe I’ll decide in another decade what to do lol
