#love is our blade

[cthulhumystery]

Gaze upon this glorious portrait of occultist Estelle Thorpe and feel the power of Bastet purring in your heart! Stunning fan art by Poppy Seed Puffin. Happy Pride from this troupe of uncanny queers, and happy Audio Drama Sunday and Sapphic Sunday too! Estelle and Anjana will return! Love is our strength. Love is our blade.

Image description: Estelle turns to look over her shoulder, eyes gleaming. Tentacles swirl in the darkness behind her. She’s a woman of the 1920s with short red hair, red lipstick, and sleek eyebrows - one of the bisected with a scar. She wears silver earrings that glimmer in the light, a green dress with lace trim, and a fur stole.

So… I did jingliu’s companion mission…

you’re telling me that the only thing that’s been keeping this woman alive is hatred and a promise she made to someone she loved like eons ago… and that the reincarnation of that same woman who she made the promise to told her that she could cure her mental turmoil if only she let herself rid of the torments of the past, and jingliu was like “nope, my pain is the only thing that’s keeping the memory of my loved one alive, so I shall bare it till the stars go dark” TO HER FACE. And then proceded to tell her that even though she couldn’t physically do anything to aid her illness, just by being near her once again, she healed more than any medicine could’ve ever done.

So, she’s doomed by immortality to live her life infinitely with the grief of the loss of the one she loved + the loss of her own sanity, and the guilt of the deeds made whilst she wasn’t lucid in her own body. Believing herself a sinner and a criminal, with no memories of the good times, all stolen by her own mind- with only hatred left towards the people that she once called her friends. A revenge that could never be fulfilled by her own blade. So, she seeks for one last final respite before being locked away at last, to serve her due. She tries one final time to draw blood, to diminish, to sever- to grant a favor, to end a life. And throughout that last display of violence she gets, once again, to see a flash of the face that she had missed so dearly, of a soul she once loved that until then had been stored amongst forgotten phantoms of what once was. In the end neither of them get what they sought. Either way, they are doomed to keep trying still, for eternity. To hate each other. To mourn. To hate themselves, to punish themselves, to punish each other. To kill. To die. To be reborn, yet again, with the same weight on their shoulders and a feeble mind that’s just on the verge of collapse. Sick and tired. Forever.

Horror movie get together:

47 goes way over the top. Like his Halloween mission, he dresses up as a slasher/monster. The sight of him is heart attack inducing. May or may not wear a pumpkin as head.

Diana looks more tasteful, a bit like a vampire queen, long black dress, pale make up, wine glass.

Olivia is a witch. Big hat, big dress, big attitude. Think Hocus Pocus - like that. Colorful, wild, cackling.

As for Lucas.....either 47 has dragged him into it and he also has an elaborate terrifying costume, or he got lazy and bought a costume onesie. I'm thinking one of the skeleton ones, bonus points for glow in the dark/led parts. Or he really didn't give a fuck and showed up in like an animal onesie, like a giraffe, and glares people into submission. Bonus points if it doesn't even fit properly.

Olivia picked the movie, otherwise Lucas and 47 would give running commentary "people don't make that sound when you stab them", she comes prepared. They let Lucas loose in a supermarket for snacks while Diana sets up the den with a movie projector and blankets. Olivia texts him every 2 minutes, adding to the order. Lucas does oblige, but grumble about it, eating his "tax" in the car and then bringing in everything in one trip because he is NOT walking twice.

47 needs all the preparation time to get out of his costume and make up (or maybe dispose of a body before, who knows? Maybe both).

Honestly I love all the ideas! I took the liberty and drew something together in like 30 min, there wasn’t more time 😩 but I enjoyed drawing our hitman fam - so I hope you like them too!

They are about to go to their Halloween mission party:

I tried to involve your ideas as well @lucas-grey @agent47grey 🤭

hc that baiheng had just the biggest older sister vibes. like, yingxing was her baby. she teased the hell out of him over everything and they got lunch together several times a week when she was on the luofu, her dragging him out of the forge blabbering about the latest intergalatic gossip and how he needs to get out more and eat his meals. she was endlessly endeared by jing yuan, always indulging him in seemingly unrealistic ambitions and telling him equally fantastical stories of her journeys across the stars and narrow escapes from peril and despite dan feng technically being older than her, she wasn't ever intimidated by him nor his title. instead she looked at him and saw a kind of humanity he never let himself see in himself. she would've tried to shouldered so many of his burdens if he ever let her in.

awwwww! when war of faith was filming, the director took the crew to watch hidden blade 🥹🥹🥹 thank you for supporting our bobo! and it’s such a masterpiece! the setting of their drama is also v close to HB’s.

Highly disappointed in the Aerin stans for lack of acknowledgement we're giving his reaction to us telling him we love him.
