[thekingofthenameless]

Could you tell me your process in designing Merlin and Charlie, both in aesthetics and personalities? You mentioned in your Q&A post about the design changes so I’m intrigued in your thought process!

Thanks for the ask! :D

My memory is shit so I had to go through old Discord messages for this lmaooo, but it was fun! …When I wasn’t dying due to cringe.

For those who don’t know, these two are Tales of Arcadia’s Merlin, and Tales of Arcadia’s Charlie! Aka the two that started all this.

Merlin:

Back when The King of the Nameless was still a ToA fanfiction, (titled Emerald Embers), I didn’t have plans to change Merlin that much at first, besides giving him a long white ponytail (inspired by his concept art), some earrings, and the outfit that @tenyai drew in some storyboard explorations!

After some time passed, I decided to make him look more intimidating to better fit his role as someone who’s been through war for most of his life. I was inspired by this concept art! I thought he looked really cool, and it’s still my favorite storyboard version of him.

A few months later my Artbreeder era started when I wanted to make him myself. We don’t talk about that.

Eventually, I got a design commissioned!

By this point, I’d had the idea to depict him with darker skin, but he didn’t have a defined race (I accepted @aaronwaltke’s headcanon/idea of him being so old nationalities weren’t a thing yet.)

Time passed, and I went on my unintentional but helpful hiatus for several months before coming back.

Once I started revisiting the yet to be retitled Emerald Embers, I had the idea to redesign Merlin again.

I had watched this TikTok, and afterwards, for some reason, got curious and decided to look up if locs with white hair exist (they do, of course, I was just making sure I wasn’t being stupid).

The idea was also partly from me realizing that Merlin being ambiguously brown without a defined race wasn’t… good, even with his “age”. The trope of characters without a defined race is really common, and a bit problematic, so it would be cool to have a clearly Black protagonist. I was already getting heavily attached to the concept when I approached my boyfriend with it, and I tried to convince him to tell me redesigning him again was a bad idea, but I don’t think I would’ve listened even if he had told me lol.

I also remembered Once Upon A Time’s Merlin, who’s Black, and that helped convince me more!

About a week later, I was making Picrews while planning to commission someone eventually!

I finally approached his original artist after searching for one a bit, because I saw one of their posts on Reddit and loved their art style!

After a few renditions, Merlin had a set design at last!

Or… so I thought, lol. I’d wanted Merlin to have an undercut on every side of his head, like an au of Adora where she has the hairstyle, and his locs actually going halfway down his back. I basically gaslighted myself into forgetting that when his first artist drew it short. 💀 Maybe he started growing it out and shaved the rest of his head after he turned immortal or something lol.

Anyways, got into contact with his current design’s artist. While looking up references for his body type (even though I had one already, so I don’t know why I did that lol), I found his current body type and was like “Perfect”.

And his hair is actually longer than I’d planned! :D Fully down, I think it would reach his knees or possibly longer.

Then him being a transgender man grabbed me by the throat, and I eventually came up with a design for how he looked when he found Charlie!

He was physically twelve at this point, but chronologically sixty-four. (Almost thirteen and sixty-five lol. He transitioned when he was sixteen physically, chronologically eighty.)

So, in a summary, Merlin has gone from cisgender white ➡️ cisgender ambiguously brown skinned (glad I changed that lol) ➡️ cisgender Black ➡️ transgender Black.

He’s changed so much lol.

And something I find funny about DR!Merlin's design vs TKN Merlin: the latter Merlin is just. ONE inch taller now. 6'8" compared to 6'7".

Also I’ll end this with the point that technically, his appearance is never described in original Arthurian text, so he can look like whatever I want him to. ;)

Charlie:

Finally onto the best boy!!

After getting my first adoptable, a dragon named Mantis, I looked at ToA Charlie again and just went “😬”

Alongside him being a little bit too humanoid for my taste, (and his neck proportions taking me out, lol) his wings being leathery with holes in them made me annoyed because they logically should have repaired themselves; as long as a bat has proper rest and nutrition, tears in their wings can heal on their own without medical attention. With as many holes as he has, he obviously shouldn’t be able to fly.

Anyways, thought of redesigning him for a bit, but never had any fleshed out concepts of anything since dragon Picrews are unfortunately hard to come by.

Then I got this dragon adoptable!

Apparently about three minutes later, I thought: what if that was the redesign for Charlie? I ran with it, and that’s how this dragon became Charlie! Still ToA at this point, lol.

(Me deciding an adoptable is perfect for a character design, actually, was what happened with Morgana too but we’ll talk about her later.)

Later, I saw an awesome unicorn adoptable and wondered if it was still open, so I contacted Charlie’s second artist! It wasn’t, so I asked if I could get a commission instead since some slots were available.

If I remember right, I asked for him to be in a flying pose, and after a traditional sketch I loved immediately, it was onto digital, then coloring! He got a little bit of a redesign, lol; I love how his colors seem far more vibrant, and how his wings actually look like lava! :D

Somewhere along the line, I decided the swirls and leaves on his leg would be his familiar mark!

Time passed, and The King of the Nameless started coming to life. I asked Reddit for new name suggestions for Charlie because I thought I shouldn't/couldn't keep the same name; got absolutely great suggestions like Fred, Scorch (also fun fact that's referenced in this oneshot lol), and... Jarred. No, I'm not kidding. Gave up on Reddit and Googled male dragon names before going to a generator. That gave me the amazing name Tyson, and hell yeah, I'm absolutely gonna name an ancient dragon after chicken nuggets! (It's actually derived from the Old French word "tison", or "firebrand", but admit it, the chicken nuggets is funnier.) I even thought of naming him Falkor after the dragon in The Neverending Story lol.

But Falkor didn't stick. No matter how hard I tried, my brain refused to latch onto the name, and I always kept internally referring to my dragon as Charlie. I tried to think of more new names, but nothing would come to mind, and at one point the only name I could think of was Adam. Eventually my boyfriend just said "as long as you don't name him Charlemagne from Tales of Arcadia you'll be fine".

So after all that, Charlie he stayed!

Some more time passed, and I got my first commission of Merlin and Charlie in the same picture!

He was unintentionally drawn as pretty small since I forgot to send size references at first lol.

Got two more pieces! He was pretty much consistent size wise for these two.

I started getting a fourth piece of them together, using an incredible sketch I made for the artist to have as a reference that I should post against the final art like this post lol.

And when I got the sketch, Charlie was BIG, far bigger than before.

Debated on it keeping it his new size or not for a little bit until I was like: "fuck it we ball the other arts are in the past and this is present". (Also Merl's hair isn't long in most pieces anyway lol.)

Bro's like. the size of a car now.

Something I thought funny that applies to both of their designs: just like Merlin’s hair got longer and longer (although I wanted it halfway down his back in the first place and forgot) Charlie’s gotten bigger and bigger lol.

Commissioned another piece with Charlie's new size!

Another thing about Charlie's design I find funny: he's bigger than ToA Charlie now.

That concludes the epic saga of their design changes, and now they're both set in stone! They really are. I promise.

Picrew and Alignment Test

I was further tagged by @alypink @frankwoods and @deeptrashwitch to take part in this tag game, so thank you guys! (Also I read through each of yours and I love what you got, I love your ocs, just wanna hug 'em!)

The Picrew links are here and here; the alignment test is here!

As I have already done the BOCW OCs, Jodie and Keith, I will be doing the Modern Warfare OCs this time around, Franca and Nanette!

Modern Warfare OCs

Franca "Major" Lorenzetti

Chaotic Good- A chaotic good character acts as her conscience directs him with little regard for what others expect of her. She makes her own way, but she's kind and benevolent. She believes in goodness and right but has little use for laws and regulations. She hates it when people try to intimidate others and tell them what to do. She follows her own moral compass, which, although good, may not agree with that of society. Chaotic good is the best alignment you can be because it combines a good heart with a free spirit. However, chaotic good can be a dangerous alignment when it disrupts the order of society and punishes those who do well for themselves.

Note: Yeaaahh, pretty accurate - she'll follow the law and regulations when it's absolutely necessary, but understands that sometimes these laws and regulations are placed there to help those who don't deserve it. She fights for those who don't necessarily have a voice or are able to fight for themselves. Franca used to get into fights a lot at school, coming home with blood on her shirt and a bust lip, because she'd stand up and defend kids that were being bullied - she carries this kind of chaotic fight with her, even as a medic; she'll fix you up as she then goes to kick someone else's ass. It's partly why she joined 141 - they bend the rules to do what is right, even if it means she's got to get dirty.

Nanette MacTavish

Neutral Good- A neutral good character does the best that a good person can do. She is devoted to helping others. She works with kings and magistrates but does not feel beholden to them. Neutral good is the best alignment you can be because it means doing what is good without bias for or against order. However, neutral good can be a dangerous alignment when it advances mediocrity by limiting the actions of the truly capable.

Note: yeah, again, pretty accurate - she can be a bit feisty when put into a corner about certain things, but generally she tries to live her life as good to others as possible, seeking to help where needed, and understands that rules are in place to keep order. Would she question them? Possibly, but not overtly so that she would cause a fuss (unless absolutely pushed to a limit). She basically thinks 'treat others as you wish to be treated' and tries to do right by people. But, is she fiercely drawn one way or the other when it comes to politics and issues? No, she feels like there are people better suited to fighting those kinds of battles.

This was super fun to do, yet again, and I feel like they're relatively accurate for the internal image I have of their alignments - again, as with Jodie and Keith, I feel like the alignments are a vague base to begin understanding the characters!

As for who I'm tagging? I'm pretty certain that most people I would tag have already taken part in this game... If that's the case, then feel free to ignore me!!

@alexxmason @adlerboi @mctvsh @welldonekhushi

Again, I've seen a lot of my mutuals having already done this and I would hate to pester them with it again-

If you haven't done it though, nor have been tagged, then by all means! Take this post as your inspiration to take part <3

[moonyasnow]

Oh shit wait I forgot about these guys Uhhhhhhhh

TIME FOR TWO MORE BACKGROUND OCS

(I only have picrews of them right now)

But anyway, meet: Moreno Ashengrotto and Dermot Berg!

They're both in Pomefiore

Moreno Ashengrotto

RGB 61, 199, 123 Cecaelia (black and green instead of black and purple) Green eyes, white hair Skin a slight bit darker than Azul's SUPER thin body. Talkin' beanpole boi 181cm— A little bit taller than Azul despite being a year younger

Joined the Film Research Club. Is upset he always gets background roles with no lines, or jobs backstage. But it is slowly teaching him to work with others and make compromises. Vil's enforced skin-care routine is also making the acne he used to be embarrassed of start to disappear.

He's Azul's younger brother. Growing up, he idolized Azul even when he was being bullied. He was always jealous of Azul, and still is. Though this is partly because at some point, Azul also started becoming distant with him. In particular, Moreno pinpoints the day Azul and the Tweels became friends as the day they started to drift apart.

Really, he misses Azul. He may not have been bullied growing up like Azul was, he was mostly ignored instead. The kind of person you'd barely notice leaving a room. Their mother loved him just as much, of course, but Azul needed extra support due to his bullying.

Moreno is a bit of a diva who tries too hard to be cool like Azul but fails because of how bad he is at covering up how hard he's trying.

He also hates the Leeches for obvious reasons. Boy can hold a GRUDGE. His favorite thing to eat is eel. All because of the Tweels. He feels like they stole his big brother away from him.

He's petty and spiteful and a drama queen who whines when things don't go his way.

He always bothers Azul. Not really intentionally, but him trying to be just like Azul is just him trying to connect to him. So when Azul is upset with him for trying to cut into his profits, at least Azul actually pays attention to him instead of just ignoring his very existence like they're not brothers.

For some reason, people always seem to get his name wrong and call him 'Monero' ...It could be due to Dermot making business cards for him and spelling his name wrong

So now a lot of people call him that because that's what it said on the card

He also gets VERY upset if you intentionally call him that, so it's likely people started doing it just to spite him

He has a friend, Dermot, a tiger shark mer (based on Undertow, Morgana's pet tiger shark) who was also an outsider due to how small he is, especially for his species.

Dermot Berg

RGB 156, 150, 142 Tiger shark Dark grey/black hair, sandy brown eyes 155cm (AND UPSET ABOUT IT— will kick you if you call him short) Signature Spell: 'Not So Little' Lets him make himself a 195cm beefcake— but only for a little while

The two of them resolved to make sure no one would ever look down on them again! They may be called 'annoying runts' but not forever!

Moreno is the brain and Dermot the brawn.

They're two idiots and have Drake and Josh vibes. Or like Pinky and the Brain if Brain's intelligence were halved.

Moreno has 'comically incompetent evil guy' energy— like that small purple-haired guy from that one season of Total Drama(I forgor the name💀), and Dermot is Kronk but way less nice. But still both idiots

They're NRC first-years, both in Pomefiore

When they first got there Moreno tried to be all slick and start some kind of small business of his own selling potions he'd made— but he has way less rizz (and skill) than Azul and no one trusted him so he was no one's first choice. So he started making his prices lower.

He really became 'store brand' Azul. Which he was upset about— but at least he was actually associated with Azul now!

Moreno and Dermot also have matching shark tooth necklaces they never take off They fell out on their own after Dermot had tried charging someone and accidentally hit right into a rock wall instead They're like symbols that the two aren't going to let the world look down on them forever! As like a 'remember where we came from' sort of thing

And no you are not reading into anything; they are very gay for each other but both too used to being 'best friends' to fully notice they like the other as MORE than a friend AND too stupid to notice that the other likes them back

[andorerso]

sissi hello!! in regards to the post about ocs, i would LOVE to hear more about dani and elijah 💜 (partly bc i love both of those names so so much, always have, and that intrigues me instantly).

hope you're having a wonderful day!

rolling up almost two months later like hiiiiii <3 sorry it took me so long to answer ahfgdchg

but first of all, thank you for asking because I love talking about them, second of all, I'm so happy you like the names because I do too 🥰 well obviously, I wouldn't have chosen them otherwise, but I'm very particular about names and they have to feel right, and this was one of those instances when I almost instantly knew their names, like it was just fate. meant to be. and I think they sound nice together!! anyway, I'll stop ranting about names now

so, the story is urban fantasy, and their tropes are slowburn, mutual pining, idiots to lovers, battle couple, codependency, angstttttt, two sides of the same coin, flirty & awkward, snarky & serious, impulsive & rational, short-tempered & calm

Dani (full name Danielle Preston but she hates being called Danielle) is our leading lady, she's in her mid-20s, and she's the flirty, snarky, impulsive, short-tempered side of the two. she's always cracking a joke, which is mostly a self-defense mechanism, and tends to cover up real feelings with humor, sex and booze. I have such a soft spot for characters who'd rather cut open a vein than show weakness or vulnerability in front of someone, but still deeply care about people and are intensely loyal if you earn it, so she's kinda that archetype. she'd literally burn down a whole city for someone she loves but will never actually say the words. also she's bisexual like almost all my MCs

here's kind of how I imagine her (made with this picrew)

and Elijah is the more level-headed, serious, all business no fun counterpart to Dani's generally chaotic behavior. he's a couple hundred years old, and not human, but he looks to be in his early 30s. he's very matter-of-fact, goal-oriented, and pragmatic, but he's also very kind to those who deserve it, and can be surprisingly intense and passionate when he actually lets himself feel it (which is not very often, at least not at first). he has a very strong sense of justice, but he kind of follows his own moral code, so he definitely falls into the morally grey category (Dani kind of does too, but Elijah even more so)

here's a picrew for him too

as for their relationship, it starts as kind of an unwilling partnership and they clash a lot at the beginning because of their different approaches and worldviews, but they eventually form a friendship. Elijah's kind of drawn to her/fascinated by her from the start, because she's so different from him but has a lot of the qualities he admires/wishes he had too. Dani takes a bit longer mostly because she's better at lying to herself lmao. but there's an attraction of sort from the beginning. it's a difficult ride, mostly because they're both stubborn idiots who tend to repress their emotions, just in different ways. she's lost people and is afraid to lose more, and he's just not sure he knows how to allow himself to want things and be a functioning human person, so neither wants a relationship and they're both violently trying to deny any feelings. but the feelings are definitely there. like they're not together but they're deeply devoted but they will never admit it but there's no one else who could possibly compare. those kinda vibes, you know?

some other tidbits/details that I love about them: she loves to antagonize him (mostly in a teasing way) and he's so offended/annoyed at first until he realizes it's her love language. then the annoyance turns into fond exasperation. she's pretty much the only one who can make him genuinely smile and laugh, in fact sometimes he's the only one who actually finds her funny at all lmao (she definitely overdoes it sometimes but he finds it charming). she's a bit of a romantic deep down, and he's very intensely devoted once he commits, so it's the kind of relationship she always secretly wanted but never thought could have. and he's the only person she will tolerate calling her Danielle (it's kind of a turn-on from him).

anyway, I could go on but it's gonna get long very quickly, so this is just the basics. but I love talking about them and I'm always open to more specific questions from anyone <3

also here's a moodboard too because why not

[jacenotjason]

i used a picrew by anjubatus on instagram

this is ryan frankly dear, he comes from a universe where eddie and frank are his parents, so in turn, he claimed this aus frank and eddie as substitute parents

it frfr go like

e: im not ready for parenthood!!

f: whats parenthood? (prolly not what he would say but idc)

r: *talking to eddie* too bad, you have no choice!

AYEEE THATS SO COOL!! He just?? Showed up one day I love that

“I’m you kid in another universe so uh whats good”

“What the shit”

And i dont think frank would say “whats parenthood?” I mean he might, he is very dumb, but he’d also definitely do that “Adultery is the process of becoming an adult” bit

I love him very much

Barnaby probably takes most care of him, mostly bc he likes kids and hes rlly good with them, partly bc Eddie and Frank are not at all suited to be parents, and just a smidge because Ryan is from an alternate universe and barnaby is very interested in all the science details.

I also like that he drew cat ears on Frank aa

[kissmetwicekissmedeadly]

4 years, 40 facts about me loving napo... let's go 🏃🏻‍♀️

...or as @leonscape called it, 40 "Mopoleon" facts?! (picrew link)

the date of our "anniversary", June 19th, is one day after the date of the battle of Waterloo 💀

both our given names are of Italian origin

we're both leo zodiac signs

our birthdays are 8 days apart, in the same month

he's my first otome route ever played

i've only played his route once, in July 2019

i've never seen his dramatic ending

my first impression of him on a teaser tweet of ikevamp EN was that he looks like an asshole, and I didn't like his looks either...

my falling for him was utterly illogical as despite these thoughts I put him on my phone wallpaper a few days later (still before the release of ikevamp EN)

as of right now ao3 says he appears in 59 of my posted works: the total number of fics I have published with him is higher as a few of those are stand-alones in a multichapter fic (napoleon bday prompts 2019 +9, yumeweek 2020 +5, mini requests +4, headcanons +11 ) ...he appears in about 1/3 of all my fics!

we share a hobby of reading biographies! the official ikevamp character sheets state it as his hobby

our height difference is 18 cm

the @xxsycamore blog exists solely because of him, as well as my passion for writing - I started this blog because I wanted to express my love in some kind of creative way, as previously (and for the longest time) I thought my medium would be art instead of writing

despite that, my first ever posted fic is not with him but with Arthur!

I've always loved languages but he had influence over my choice of learning especially french in uni. It's hell but I don't regret it at all

I have a playlist with sleepy-themed songs for him 🥺

birds are my favorite animals (any kind) and he has a pet eagle!!

our mbti personality types are a so-called perfect match! infp + enfj

I don't like black-haired, blue-eyed men because of him, it was my type before him too! (not many such ikemens around but I have a handful of faves like that from other media)

as the fictional napoleon bonaparte is light years away from the historical figure, I thought I wouldn't be interested in learning about him - until I ended up reading multiple books on him, the thickest of which 680 pages... while I don't mix the two in my head, the napoleonic era history (+ russian empire history) is still pretty cool to know imo!

there's hardly any writer around here who hasn't received a napoleon request from me at least once... I'm so sorry...

it is implied in the game that napo has kissed boys (they were taking turns waking him up and they all know of his habit......) which gives me enough reason to headcanon him as bi....like me 🥺

I really suck at completing the bday creation challenges I host for him, as last year I did 0 prompts and the year before that 2....but in 2019 I did 10!

I love making bday gifts. I love birthdays. I don't have the exact number but last year a lot of characters received a bday fic from me but not napo 💀 partly because I was shadowbanned back then!

the only real tradition I have when it comes to his bday is to make homemade crepes since it's his favorite food! but my favorite part is eating them...

I still haven't watched the movie "Napoleon & Me"...

I don't have much napo merch, but I do have the Naplushieon doll which is plenty

I was still in highschool (11th grade) when I fell for him 🥺🥺🥺 it feels like ages ago

I love the song written for the ikevamp stage play and sung by his voice actor Nobunaga Shimazaki, "Lucida", so much you can even find it and play it on my blog... recently some kind soul uploaded the whole version on youtube (I've been waiting for so long....) and I haven't been the same since

my dream napo merch is the clothes hanger with his neck and face so that I can hang my silly little sundresses on him (I'm going to make it on my own actually, just watch)

after having so many random fic ideas for him that will never see the light of day, I accepted the facts at last and now I feel so much better and more chill

I'm currently working on fanart series where I try to post one tablet-drawn art of him every month... I have trouble keeping them simple as desired sometimes but I'm having lots of fun while learning (I still consider myself fairly new to drawing with my tablet)

once I wrote a death anniversary fic for napo!

the best napo song i've discovered so far is Wings by Su!YoON!

I don't know. anything. about his sequel. i just know the cgs. not that is hard to avoid spoilers LMAO

my most favorite napo cg is the 5th bday one (where they're in a field of roses) (it was on my phone's background for a very long time)

my most favorite napo card...that's a trick question but I think the one that is on the left banner in my blog (desktop view)

yes, yes I do want to go to Corsica one day what about it. I have a lot of other dream trip destinations too!

yes, I do love Napoleon cake (It's a russian recipe) (it was my bday cake in 2020)... but so do I love a whole lot of other cakes...!

Fact number 40 is that I love Napoleon a normal amount 😇 nono listen!! I do talk a lot about him, and here I tried compilating facts that are not too cheesy: believe it or not there are days I don't think about him, ok! I never pressure myself to get all the event bonus stories, or to always have a fic ready for him... in a world where im a worrywart about anything and everything, he's my safe place? my chill place? And if I begin to think about the gigantic mass of things surrounding him that are exactly aligning with what I love, with what comforts me, with what traits im looking for in a person, i'm going to get dizzy. So let's end this here with me saying, ily so much Napoleon 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 im such a nunuche sometimes but im your nunuche ‼️‼️

[invinciblerodent]

I feel like as the release draws near, I should update my Rook concepts a little bit, post a bit more about how they've been taking shape in my head... (no visuals of the designs yet- while I have loose ideas, I'm also undecided, and kind of going back and forth on many things, lol.)

Divvying them up by class, the warriors are gonna be:

Verbena Mercar, main Rook

the Idealist, who likely wouldn't really be in this mess if it wasn't happening right on her doorstep (and ngl, fully thought she was just taking this job for like, a month at best), but someone has to do something, and it might as well be her. So far what I know about her is that she has a good head on her shoulders, a strong sens of justice, and few scruples about breaking the rules to do what's right, and she will trip over her knickers the first time she sees Davrin.

She'll be the first character I play, a human sword and board warrior- she's had a first name since roughly 2016, and I can't wait to explore her personality more. For now, I'm kind of torn whether on her appearance I'll want to lean more into her being from Minrathous (so stealing Dorian's color scheme a little bit), or her being distantly related to my Inquisitor Trevelyan (so kind of resembling Ray)(and Kate Bush)(I can see her looking more like Ray's sister than his actual sister, that'd be fun)- but either way, the one design thing I'm firm on is that she'll have some really interesting steel-grey eyes. (I'm calling them her dagger-greys in my head, and I love the thought of them looking cold and almost colorless until there's something for them to reflect- like the warm light of the fire in Davrin's room~)

Tristan Thorne

the Professional, who is Totally Not A Zombie or a Wandering Spirit looking for Purpose, but maybe, just maybe, saving the world will be the way to finally find it. (maybe it's somewhere in Emmrich's pants, who knows, he'll need to investigate.)

For him, I've a short snippet of his backstory as a very normal 17-year-old human Fereldan boy who once took up arms to fight for his village, and "died" in the Battle of Ostagar, so I hope to kind of lean into the "undead" angle a bit more.

I know regardless of what the CC actually allows, he'll have a number of tattoos chronicling his life (and death) all over his body, partly as a way to reclaim ownership of it, and I'm hoping that in the background, I can kind of start off what he'll have going on with Emmrich underscored by a ~purely clinical~ interest. (until the pierced nipples on a wide, hair-littered barrel of a chest come out, which is when all scholarly sense goes out the window.)

(I'll need to see the CC for him most I feel, because no picrew I've found lets me make burly greying gentlemen with appropriately sad and haunted eyes, lol. But I'm thinking fairly low-maintenance short hair, maybe a touch lighter than the black I had planned initially [so he'll not look like a knockoff Blackwall], pale skin, and eyes that are a shade of brown that look unsettlingly red if the sun hits them slightly wrong.)

The rogues:

"Tanner"

(or Nalinda Bramunt, Elena Firavanti, Loseck Brovo, Stéphane Rousselot-Poincaré, and honestly, who even knows how many more, the list goes on and on- but as far as anyone is concerned, Laidir will do), the Daredevil: adventurer, treasure hunter, poet of some renown, spy more than just incidentally. She's an Orzammar-born dwarf and ex-Inquisition agent enamored with the ocean, she's 500 pounds of whoopass in a 120 pound bag, she likes knives a bit too much, and she's here to sweep Harding off her feet and get paid.

I'm thinking a butch/futch lesbian(? unsure on that, could be bi, she'll have to tell me herself) dwarfette with dual daggers, I'm thinking blonde and sea-tanned, I'm thinking pierced lip/tongue, I'm thinking tattoos ("gaatlok-spots", as a reference to gunpowder-spots of actual sailors), and I'm thinking her having more trouble confessing her actual first name to Harding than she'll have confessing her romantic feelings. (She smokes. She 100% smokes. And if there's at all a chance for her to have a poly romance with Harding and Taash, she'll TAKE it.)

(myesh i knoooow that there's a Sister Tanner agent in Redcliffe and a Tanner in Bull's first Skyhold friendship scene, I figured it's both a spy's profession name and a fairly common unisex name in Ferelden- I was thinking about tanning leather, because I wanna call her and Harding "leather and Lace" in my head.)

Coris de Riva

the Cynic who'd like to correct all in the rumor that she once dispatched a mark by tearing his still beating heart out of his chest with her teeth. (He actually bled out when she bit through his windpipe- she only cut his heart out afterwards, upon the client's request.) A pretty surface dwarf with a checkered Chantry past, enough arrows in her quiver, more than enough resentment in her heart, and no small desire to force the First Talon to his knees- if only he'll then actually look her in the eye.

Her plan is going to be to live out her grudge deeper than a Titan's asshole against the Crows by making herself the Lady Macbeth whispering in a Dellamorte's ear, and she'll be very pleased to have the more favored grandson that was believed dead (she had her doubts on that one) dropped into her lap. Except she'll not expect to realize that, along the way, he'll actually worm his way into her cold little shriveled up heart, and suddenly, pushing him to take over the Crows and then stabbing him to take over herself doesn't sound like that fun an idea anymore.

The mage:

Marcus Ingellvar

the Scholar with more talent, curiosity, and compassion (and excellent sideburns) than good sense, who's not really had a conversation longer than 20 minutes with a living person in more years than he can count, and will likely feel his very core turn into warm vanilla pudding the first time he lays eyes on Taash.

I'm toying with the thought of fucking with gender a little bit on him, but I'm unsure what that means for him. I'm getting a Vibe, but I'm wondering if it's just that he'll have an interesting approach to masculinity (which sounds like heaps of fun to explore and contrast a little bit with Ray's fairly traditional masculinity), some flavor of nonbinary-ness, or if this guy is just... trans, and that's it lol. But for him, I'm really thinking of an appearance that's rather tall and lanky, and... kind of if Rezaren from DA: Absolution was both very, very tired, and a semi-starved Victorian urchin child. (With, again, excellent sideburns.)

Either way, my goal is that people will look at him, and immediately want to feed him warm soup. I hope Taash will need to physically pull him from danger and carry him to safety more times than either of them can count, and I think he'll be very, very pleased with that. (And let's be real, no matter who happens to be wearing the penis at the time, she'll be the one topping.) (And again, he'll be very, very pleased with that.)

Undecided:

Syl Aldwir

the Double Agent who, after having worked with the Friends of Red Jenny as an Orlais-born elf (long story), joined the Veil Jumpers in hope of connecting with her elvish roots, but wound up with her butt planted firmly on the ground between the two proverbial chairs she could have landed on.

Her design is the one that varies the most wildly in my mind, but my inspo for her is a certain piece of Tabris concept art, so she'll probably look either a bit like that, or like Cid, the Tabris I had played once.

I'm planning for a lot of sapphic yearning with Neve, but depending on her relationship with her elvishness, I can see it ultimately being Bellara too- it'll need to unfold during the gameplay (hoping for a love triangle type of thing, or some jealousy-dialogue, if there is any in the game), but personally I'm leaning towards Neve- partly as a rejection of the elves' clinging to the unclear ancient past, and partly because, well, fucking look at her lol.

(She'll either be an archer rogue or a sword and board warrior, depending on which type of gameplay I enjoy more.)

💉🪽 for ask game :33!!

sorry fur responding to this late!! I'm sorry as well fur anyone who sent 🪽 in my inbox, i haven't had the energy to infodump so I've just put them on hold 😞😞 but I'll get to them slowly!

a kin memory

sharing a small memory from one of my highest IDs, ocean queen Lizzie from empires SMP season 1! i remember standing on the shores of a sandy beach, feeling the waves wash over my legs, im pretty sure i had already transformed into the axolotl queen by then. it was a bright sunny day and it was peaceful. there were seagulls or something. i was mainly focused on the water, how they looked under the sun, their clearness and tranquility, and how they moved with the waves. back when i used to meditate, id focus on this memory because it brought me a lot of peace and happiness ^_^

『 🪽 』

infodump about an oc

now I will be infodumping about a recent oc i made for a roleplay with my partner and friend! her name is Clarion Aria Usher, or just Aria

picrew linkie. here's a link to her playlist as well

and YES, i do roleplay, so what!? i love writing, and i love collaborating with my loved ones to create a story together. and for the record, i write about 2-4 or more paragraphs per response, depending on the scene and my mood. so i do some serious writing when i roleplay and it's not just some simple one liners with asterisks.

so the roleplay is basically this zombie apocalypse story, where the zombies are similar to the cordyceps zombies from the last of us (that was my idea hehe) and we're still in the early stages of the apocalypse. like, not everything has been destroyed and abandoned yet, and the government is still a thing and they're still trying to maintain control, but they won't be able to keep up a facade of control any longer.

I'm also going to quickly mention Aria's inspirations: her family was heavily based on the ushers from the fall of the house of usher (2023). aria herself was only partly inspired by Fallon Carrington from Dynasty (2017). the media that inspired he will be veeeryy obvious when i talk about her LMAO

okay! so. Aria's family, the ushers, is this super rich and super influential family. as in like, they practically control most of the globe. the Usher dynasty is very big (like, imagine the usher kids from tfothou didnt die and a lot of them had kids or something) and each family focuses on their own industry. media and entertainment, power and energy, medicine, technology, etc. Aria's family focuses on energy (like the Carringtons). so you could immediately understand that Aria's life was privileged and glamorous. she practically had endless money to throw around, her family's name assured she had protection and respect wherever she went, everything was handed to her on a diamond encrusted platter, etc etc.

aria was still encouraged to work for what she wanted, and she did attempt to start her own company rather than work at her father's. but she still struggled with trying to become independent because she's so used to relying on people

because like Aria's a little bitch yk. during the roleplay i plan for her to heavily rely on the other characters and expect her teammates to serve her and always help her, despite not contributing anything herself. i want her to treat her teammates condescendingly, like shit. she wants everything to go her way, because for all her life that's how everything went, but now things aren't like that anymore because her aunt (aunt Victorine... wHWUAJUDHAH /ref) let a virus she was experimenting with break out from her laboratory and infect an entire city.

(okay well, it's a bit deeper than that. certain conditions in the environment allowed the virus to inhabit human bodies and spread so quickly, and these conditions were caused by the actions of the ushers. certain issues in society made it harder for regular people to live well during the virus lockdown, and these societal issues were once again caused by the ushers. so yeah they had a hand in a lot of things, directly or indirectly).

and that infected city is the city aria is currently trapped in. and for lore reasons she has to actually fight to get out of this city because her family dumped her there and left her behind.

so yeah! that's her current situation. i plan that her character arc will involve finally realizing her family's evil, exploitation, and damage, and turning her back on them so she can change for the better :3

oh yeah and Aria's nonhuman cause i thought that'd be cool. her mom is sort of an avian (hey idk what her species would be called) and her name Clarion was inspired by her mother, but she hates her mother so she doesn't use that name. she hates that she looks a lot like her mother. oh yeah and also aria can't fly because she got her wings clipped when she was 18. I'll write something about that someday. it's supposed to be a painful event

anyway I'm going to show some snippets of my writing for aria as a bonus for anyone who's read this far :3

i don't have much to show for her because we're literally still in the first scene LMAO but I'm excited to see how this goes!

[briannaswords]

Hi! It's Minie (@serendipminiewrites) sending from my main! I see you changed your blog aesthetic and it looks absolutely heavenly

Also may I request a few fun facts about Mila from your recent wip?

Thank you, have a good day :)

aaah minie thank you so much!! <33 I didn't think anyone would notice, I just spontaneously decided to change it bc I suddenly decided I want my blog to fully embrace autumn. in late October. 😅

and you want to know about mila!!! yay!!! I haven't really talked too much about 'friends break your heart too' since I literally just finished outlining it so this is a great opportunity for me to ramble, so thank you!! <3

(gonna put this under a read more bc it got pretty long hehe)

so this is what she looks like

(I used this picrew)

Her full name is Mila Nwaeke and she's from Nigeria. She's sixteen years old, her parents are divorced and she lives with her mum.

She's quite close with her mum, despite her mum having three jobs and working pretty long hours. Because of this, Mila mostly tries to deal with any problems she has herself because she doesn't want to cause her anymore stress.

She's less close with her dad, partly because he now lives two hours away from her, partly because her parents' divorce was a result of her dad cheating on her mum with her mum's friend Clair. He definitely tries to be a caring dad to her and she knows he loves her, but she also feels like he doesn't understand her at all.

She's on the netball team with her best friend Sadie and their mutual friend Jacquie. She's also very musical and plays three instruments: piano, violin and guitar. She actually ends up composing some stuff for her school play and she either wants to do that for a living or go into teaching.

She's extremely close with Sadie as they've known each other for years and, sometimes, she feels like Sadie's the only person who understands her. She's 'popular' at school but it's mostly because she's friends with Sadie, so she constantly feels out of her depth and like she has to be a different version of herself so people like her. I feel like these lyrics from mirrorball by taylor swift explain it perfectly:

I'm still on that tightrope / I'm still trying everything to get you laughing at me / and I'm still a believer and I don't know why / I've never been a natural, all I do is try, try try

She's very hard-working but she's also really hard on herself. She's very selfless too, and always puts other people first (especially Sadie) but because she loves so deeply, it almost destroys her when it isn't reciprocated or worse, when she's pushed away or rejected which may or may not happen in the story ;)

[shootertron-stuff]

I recreated my Warhammer 40K characters from my series, On the Taming of Hellhounds, using this Picrew. Horns, when used, are largely symbolic.

Descriptions under the cut.

Blanket warnings for noncon, forced pregnancy, imprisonment, and Warhammer 40K being y'know, grimdark.

Clothilde Nazari: Imperial Fist, kidnapped to be a Black Legionnaire's bride. Was abandoned as a baby and raised as a ganger in the tough underhive of Europa before being kidnapped and brainwashed by the Imperial Fists. Loves children and babies.

Clothilde believes that eating women and girls turned them into a girl, but that's a coping mechanism, because plenty of Space Marines do that and don't turn into girls! Their husband kidnapped them largely because they were unable to transition due to Imperial Space Marines having a "no girls" rule. Every time they tell a quirky anecdote about their life in the Imperium their children and any Chaos humans go "what the fuck".

Farhad Osrid Nazari: Clothilde's husband, a stupid dog. A former Luna Wolf from the Achaemenid Empire, he leads the Vortex Coursers warband and lives off the docking fees his orbital fortress/truck stop town Hellhound's Repose generates.

Has as many names as a Custodes, including "Ludwig Pregnancy Fetish". How? He's a trans man and used the power of technology to get a lot of Space Marines pregnant. Sadly, he loves most of his Space Marines wives more than they love him back, like a dedicated guinea pig owner whose guinea pigs won't let him pet them (because he kidnapped them). Has over 500 children and swears he loves all of them. It's not like Horus Lupercal, who had to love over 100,000 children!

He is pacted with Noropyon, a daemon who resembles a white borzoi with goat horns. He turns into a big dog when excited. It's difficult to tell where Farhad ends and where Noropyon begins.

Currently he is no longer warband leader, because his sons forced him to step down. Clothilde partly controls him through a cursed collar around his neck with a bronze goat bell on it, like Tripitaka and Sun Wukong.

Shahram Hargush: Farhad's second wife, a Night Sword several decades Clothilde's junior. Due to a throat injury sustained during his capture, he is mute. Reminds Farhad of a scared rabbit. Because he's bonded with Clothilde, Farhad will never "rehome" this adorable fat Space Marine malewife with tits.

Rigel Uven: A Son of the Lion who vanished after trying to kill himself in captivity, not wanting to be used as a Black Legion breeder. Previously, he had been causing problems by "showing attitude" to Clothilde and Shahram, chastising them for being complacent sex slaves. Farhad claims "he was placed in a new home where he can train in martial arts." Spoiler: the truthtelling was very selective.

Augustine: Clothilde's oldest child, who they love the most. Very big, very fat, akin to the False Knight from Hollow Knight in shape and tragedy. Has many layers, like an onion, concealing his rage towards his father, who sent him to Black Legion boarding school where the other kids did horrible things to him. Put into a dreadnought after falling into a sinkhole and suffering brain damage.

Augustine loves "Armor Piercer" novels.

Odonantus: Clothilde's second child, a brat. His father named him "Orestes" but that got him bullied at boarding school because it happened to be the name of an Iron Warrior (incest) who fucked his mom. Resentful that his mother won't divorce his father and bitter his mother loves Augustine more than him. He wears rainbow suspenders over his power armor, so we all know he's gay.

To Farhad's dismay, Odonantus keeps getting into arguments with his mom :c

Aelfwine: Clothilde's third child. True to 40K nominative determinism, he is a weeaboo for Eldar who had plastic surgery to make his ears pointy. Unsuccessfully tried to make his brothers read the Eldar Silmarillion, but they fell asleep. Is friends with a daemon inside a Venomcrawler nicknamed "Squoogle".

Carcharis: Clothilde's fourth child, adopted after his birth dad rejected him for having anime eyes and sharp teeth. Has blue hair and pronouns and glues seashells to his power armor. "I'm a dog mermaid!" he says. Has trauma over being rejected at birth which led him to resent his father. Because his teeth grow back if he loses them, he is often careless about his diet.

Yao and Erlang (name may change): Clothilde's precious Word Bearer twins who live in Space Texas working for a gospel singer-themed warband. They are paired with two sentient barrel drums named Pell and Mell and are popular youth pastors.

One of their favorite acts is "I went to Hell and I know what it's like!" - they don't have to lie. Word Bearers go to Hell every time they travel through the Warp without a Gellar Field.

Anur: Clothilde's youngest child, conceived spontaneously from microchimeras left by previous pregnancies while Clothilde was travelling through the warp without a Gellar Field. She is a genetic chimera and was born with dog ears and a tail.

Clothilde has to keep her on a child leash because she keeps jumping on people :c

By the time Anur is 13 she has a beard, like a goat. Mom tries to make her feel okay with being a bearded lady!

Faridun: Another one of Clothilde's many children, a masochistic Night Lord. Due to anomalies of the Warp, Faridun became a seasoned veteran, several centuries old, by the time he was reunited with his mother. His body is covered in whip scars. Faridun has trouble keeping his warship neat and tidy and received a scolding from his mom for living in a scary dump with blood on the walls. He promised Clothilde he would practice safe painplay and only torture people who really deserve it.

Dariush: Clothilde's son who was sent to an Iron Warriors warband called the Fiery Furnaces and subsequently become the iron sugar baby of its leader. Due his his mom being resistant to the idea of female Space Marines (despite being a female Space Marine) and thinking it would make it easier for him, he was assigned male at birth despite being born with a vagina.

Iron Warriors prize eromenoi with Imperial Fists geneseed, and dress them in yellow so everybody knows.

Brunhilde: Clothilde's daughter who is part of an Emperor's Children warband. She breeds show dogs with health problems on purpose for the aesthetic, and is obsessed with cleanliness. Perhaps she was also assigned male at birth despite being born with a vagina.

Phalaenopis-94: A Selenar gene-witch enslaved by the Imperium, forced to help create new Space Marines. She was Farhad's teacher and one of his emotional supports during surgery recovery. "Phae" would rather have been breeding dogs, as it was her occupation before the Imperium came.

After the Horus Heresy she vanished, not wanting to associated with Space Marines any more. Perhaps she is still alive on a daemon world somewhere...

Valdemar Telles: Farhad's abusive ex-husband, an Emperor's Children marine with the head of a lion. Some time after the Scouring, Valdemar captured Farhad's warband and played marry, fuck, and kill with them until Farhad was the last one standing by the virtue of his storytelling wit and his um, lack of bottom surgery.

Eventually, Farhad killed and cannibalized Valdemar, obtaining his memories and his personality.

[lovelyllamasblog]

Okay so I found this picrew that let's you make your MC/Yuu, so I made ever one of the EAH transfers at NRC!!!

Here's the original post! Everyone say thanks to @haruyeager for posting it!!!

This is for you @sayuricorner!!!

Please note: Not all of them are completely accurate to the characters. I couldn't do streaks or Hunter's partly shaved head and I could't get Ashlynn's strawberry blonde hair.

OKAY let's go!! They're all below the cut!!!

Part 2 Part 3

Lizzie Hearts

(I thought the red heart-shaped ahoge was soo cute 🥰)

(Edit: I took off the crown and changed her hairstyle so that I could get her two-toned hair.)

Maddie Hatter

(Again, not completely accurate since I couldn't get her signature fizzy hair or her hat 😔)

(Edit: I made it into a ponytail instead. Inspiration: fan art by @icant-choosename-help)

Cerise Badwolf-Hood

(One of the one's I had to redo because I wasn't satisfied with it. It definitely came out better the second time around 😌 Unfortunately, the picrew doesn't offer sweaters like Jamil's.)

(Edit: I did a second one with a braid like in @icant-choosename-help's fan art.)

Ramona Badwolf-Hood

(I redid hers because I couldn't get the coloring for her hair just right.) (Edit: After a third pass, I am finally satisfied with the final result.)

Coral Witch

(Since she was never shown in the webisodes, everyone portrays her differently. In some fan art, she has glasses so I gave her some. Also, the red in her hair is for her tail in the books. I also gave her freckles because why not? 🥰)

(Edit: I wasn't satisfied with either of the looks, so I reread her description on the wiki and changed her skin tone to a lighter shade, but kept the red highlights, glasses and freckles. She now feels complete.)

Holly O'Hair

(The picrew didn't have the right shade of auburn and none of the braids satisfied me so I gave her a ponytail instead.)

Hunter Huntsman

(Definitely more satisfied with the second pass 😌)

Ashlynn Ella

(I love her eyes, but I wish could have gotten her hair the right shade of strawberry 🥲)

(Edit: A second pass that came out a bit better than the first.)

Blondie Lockes

(I know that she changes her hair bow to red, but I really like her in blue)

(Edit: I changed her design to include a mix of dark blue-light blue eyes and a sweater because that's what I imagine her in and to add variety to the designs.)

[yuuto-tsukino]

Yuuto's Fox Headcanons

I still haven't found a suitable Picrew for Yuuto's fox form and I don't want to use the same as for Yuriko's but I have a mental vision about Yuuto as a fox.

Yuuto has amber-yellow eyes both in his human and fox forms. Unlike his sister, he never was a victim of blood magic and his skills were never sealed. His eyes changed from blue to yellow when he was about 4 years old and have been like that ever since.

Yuuto's fox is rather small but still bigger than Yuriko's.

Yuuto has two tails.

His fur is mostly white but he has blue ear tips and also in both of his tails. Other than that he has blue on the sides of his head and neck but also on his back, around his eyes, and a few streaks on his forehead.

As a fox Yuuto's teeth are sharp, similar to actual fox teeth.

Yuuto is able to transform partly, only bringing out the ears, tails, and teeth, but usually, he avoids doing that.

Sometimes that can happen if he is drunk. He loves beer but avoids drinking it too much. Yet there are times this happens.

Yuuto has a sharpened sense of smell, and hearing even when he isn't in his fox form and these get stronger after transformation.

Similar to his sister Yuuto can dream walk but he needs some kind of connection to the person. He was able to call Yuriko into his dreams because they are blood relatives but with other people, he has to at least meet them in the real world before he can invade their dream space or lure them into his.

Other than that Yuuto has blue foxfire and he knows how to use it. He has high pain tolerance and he has recently figured out how to use his star pearl but he hasn't actually tried to possess anyone with it.

[ibuki-loves-you]

(I apologize since this is going to be a lot)

My OC is Ren Suzuki, the Ultimate Fashion Designer. He’s a very sweet boy. Ya know how I said Gina was the love child of Makoto and Sonia? Well he’s probably the love child of Gonta and Mikan. A very very precious boy. He’s pure, innocent, a bit naive and gullible, but overall, a sweetheart. He’s very friendly to everyone, just wanting to…well, make friends! He takes his studies and schoolwork very seriously, never wanting to miss an opportunity to do his best and show his greatest work. He’s very confident and an optimistic hard-worker. He may be sweet and innocent, but he’s not shy. He enjoys being in a large crowd and talking to people about…literally anything! With an outgoing personality, warm demeanor, a compassionate heart, and an innocent mind I think the Ultimate boyfriend would fit him more than the Ultimate fashion designer

Apperance: Ren is a pretty tall guy, being 5’10, with a slim built. He has short, dark brown hair in a wavy combover and ocean blue eyes. He also wears thin round wire-framed glasses

Usual outfit: He wears a blue and white flannel button up with a black tie underneath an unbuttoned navy wool vest, black jeans with a white belt, and black leather ankle boots. He also has two silver studs on each ear and several platinum rings on his fingers

Ren grew up with his two parents and little sister. They have always lived in poverty and always worried about how to provide for the family. His parents were notorious ‘job-hoppers’ and were infamous for jumping around jobs in order to make as much money as possible. Unfortunately, word got around and their reputation got tainted. Almost no one wanted to hire them, which made finding a job and earning money more difficult. Ren realized that in order to support for his family, he had to pitch in and do whatever he could. He was very young at the time, so he couldn’t get a job himself. One day, he saw a broken sewing machine lying outside a neighbor’s lawn. There was sign near it that said “Partly good sewing machine. Take it” which Red happily did. From there, with a bit of tweaking and fixing, Ren finally repaired the machine and began to sew. Sew, sew, sew, til his heart’s desire. He began to make clothes for his little sister, himself, and his parents. He was relied on to create clothes and his family was always grateful for his help. He even made formal clothes for family events/reunions. Even professional interview clothes for his parents whenever they had new job interviews! Ren practically grew up with a passion to design and make clothes and it always stuck to him. Eventually, word got around, this time in a more positive light. He began to sell clothes and take commissions from neighbors. Not only did his family receive nice clothing, but the neighbors around them paid good money for Ren’s creation. His father even pleaded with Ren to apply to Hope Peak’s academy as the “Ultimate Fashion Designer” and use his talent to gain ultimate success in his own life. Ren, at first, declines saying he would rather stay and help his family, but they insisted and practically got down on their knees and begged him to apply. And, of course, they accepted Red with warm arms

His love interest is Mahiru, and finds her very comforting and sensible. He loves her ‘big sister’ attitude and developed feelings for her. Like all men, Mahiru was a bit hesitate about him, but she eventually warmed up. Hajime is a bit frustrated since it’s obvious she favors him over all the other boys on the island. Mahiru always denies it, but her blush whenever he’s around and talking to her just gives it away. Ren gets along well with her, but he has the innocence of Gonta here! He’s too clueless, and oblivious, and realize that she is in love with him, let alone, noticing that he fell in love with her as well. Hiyoko bullies him a lot more than anyone, probably even more than Mikan. But it’s only because she thinks that Ren is stealing Mahiru away from her. (Luckily???) he doesn’t really care or mind what she says. Hiyoko even goes as far as saying he’s gay, but Mahiru snaps at her when she says it. His best friends are probably Nagito, Hajime, Kazuichi, and Mikan. Hajime and Nagito because they enjoy his company. Kazuichi, really because he likes to tease Ren about Mahiru. But he always retaliates by teasing him about Sonia. But he doesn’t mean it. Ren is too pure to notice sexual innuendos or even pick up on what he implies. A conversation between him and Kazuichi would go something like this

Kazuichi: So, Ren! How far did you go with Mahiru? *smirks, winking*

Ren: *smiles sweetly* Oh, very far! We took a long walk together on the beach!

Kazuichi: Eh? No! I mean….did you see her…..body?

Ren: Of course! I see her body all the time! Otherwise, how else would I know what she looks like everyday?

Kazuichi: Man, I mean—

Ren: Speaking of, Mr. Kazuichi, you said you were going to hang out with Miss. Sonia today, no?

Kazuichi: Well….she had to cancel since she was busy a—

Ren: Ooooohhhhh. So I’m guessing you two didn’t go that far like me and Miss. Mahiru did. Right?

Kazuichi: *blushes beet red* DAMMIT!

He also gets along well with Mikan because she’s grateful that ‘he takes Hiyoko’s bullying’ and kinda ‘distracts’ Hiyoko from her. Because he ‘saved’ Mikan, she wanted to thank him by taking off her clothes, until Mahiru overheard their conversation, blushed, and rushed to stop her before Ren could speak. This is how the conversation went:

Mikan: Ummmm…..S-Suzuki-kun?

Ren: Huh? What is it, Miss. Mikan?

Mikan: I…..I just want to t-thank you for keeping H-Hiyoko away from m-me. Ever since you came, s-she’s been t-targeting me less……

Ren: *grins* Oh, it’s not a problem at all, Miss. Mikan! I am just trying to be a good friend to everyone!

Mikan: B-But I feel like I s-should thank you in s-some way…..

Ren: Huh? Miss. Mikan, you don’t need to do that. I don’t need any thanks at all other than being your friend—

Mikan: Let me take off my clothes. Will that make you happy? *fumbles with her apron*

Ren: H-Huh?! W-Why would I want your clot—

Mahiru: *beet red, running to them* *snatches Mikan’s hand* NO! No, no, no! That won’t be necessary, Mikan!

OKAY IM SIMPING-

YOU NEED TO MAKE A PICREW FOR HIM SOBS. ALSO HIS AND MAHIRU’S RELATIONSHIP?? AMAZING. IT’S SO CUTE!! HES ADORABLE AND JUST, AWEH!! - MOD IBUKI

Her name is Ava, she's 23 years old, and her peculiarity is mind control. About 5'7 (because let's be real, being taller than Miss P is the dream), with a british accent. Sassy and cocky, she knows what she wants and when she wants it.

AHS

The name's Bex (the same as my actual name), age 19. Slight French accent, can speak the language fluently. Blunt but friendly, always ready to make you feel welcome and at home in her arms.

ACS

Ah yes, stoic little Lia (short for Cecelia, but if you call her that you better be ready to get your head metaphorically bitten off). At the young age of 27, she's confident and cunning, knows what she's doing and is not afraid to put you in your place. In private, however, she's sweet and loving, always open for a hug if you need it.

Matilda

Liv, short for Olivia. 21 years young, caring and bubbly, but she's got tricks up her sleeve and is secretly the most mischievous gal you'll ever meet, even though she hides it well under her innocent facade.

Ratched

And our final girl. She's not that confident, seeing as she has to hide her identity lest she be sent to a mental ward, but has learned to build up her walls far enough to only let certain people in. She doesn't have all that many friends even though she's almost 20, but she doesn't find a need for them. She's perfectly fine on her own, thank you very much.

If I end up figuring somewhere else to go I will update this with my looks ;-;
