Me: trigun week is over, I can stop drawing them

my brain: so listen…

[sangahnomiya]

little known fact (I have literally only ever yapped abt this to 5 people) but ever since I watched the donghua of cinderella chef last year, I've been brainstorming a crossover AU with apothecary diaries, yona of the dawn and snow white with the red hair.

(will it ever get written? ONLY GOD KNOWS but I'm dumping my brainrot here anyway)

the cast of characters:

yaoyao and chunyu (cinderella chef)

maomao and jinshi (apothecary diaries)

shirayuki and obi (snow white with the red hair)

yona and hak (yona of the dawn)

other characters who appear in this AU (even if I haven't worked out what they do yet), bc you should not separate them ever: ryuu (AnS), and the happy hungry bunch (YotD)

the team dynamics:

in my HC shirayuki is the oldest of the group and seems (SEEMS) to be the most level-headed, while maomao and yaoyao are definitely evenly matched in levels of unhinged. yaoyao is canonically around 18-19, so she's most likely the second oldest

yona is the youngest at 16. however, she is also the only one of the group with a kill count. naturally the older girls are somewhat concerned but they're supportive anyway, and maomao later on offers to help make poison for yona's arrows. (it's her way of showing friendship)

yaoyao is the only one of them who's ACTUALLY married, and so she probably assumes that the other girls are also married to their respective tall, dark, handsome companions. shirayuki's avoiding eye contact, yona is flustered, and maomao... is not amused.

yaoyao and maomao are the kitchen powerhouse duo. if they combine their forces with yoon, then they become truly unstoppable

yona and shirayuki are definitely mistaken for the other girl by multiple people, due to their red hair (and dark-haired bodyguards/love interests). this could lead to a case of mistaken identity where shirayuki gets chased by soldiers bc they mistook her for yona, who's a fugitive

when the four girls get absolutely caught up in brainstorming a plan, the four guys have no choice but to trail after them and wait it out till they're done. obi is the most used to this behaviour from shirayuki while she works so he's already accustomed to it, and hak knows yona well enough to know that she'll explain it to him after, but chunyu and jinshi are still somewhat baffled. sucks to be them lol

like shirayuki, obi is the oldest out of the four guys and he takes care of them in his own way. big brother obi to the rescue!!!!!

the worldbuilding:

I will not lie, I only thought of this AU bc I wanted to put yaoyao and maomao together and have their nicknames be xiaoyao and xiaomao. but like everything else I start bc of something ridiculous, I ended up thinking way too much abt it so here's what I got so far

geographically speaking obiyuki would be coming from the west (AnS is set in a European-styled setting), while maomao and yaoyao would technically be in the same area. if we're going off of the assumption that yotd is set in pseudo-korea, then the kingdom of kouka would probably an ocean away from the empire of Li.

given the settings, it's not uncommon for foreigners to pass through Li, and since obiyuki canonically travel around n stuff they would probably pass through Li at least once

in terms of timeline, I'm very, VERY ROUGHLY guesstimating that cinderella chef and yotd were set in around the same time period (western jin dynasty in China, and the three kingdoms period in Korea).

emphasis on the rough guesstimate bc the show never explicitly mentions at what point in the past she's sent to, so I'm making do with what I can gather from the style of clothing and the architecture used in the setting. but I can only do so much since the show took quite the artistic liberty with historical events and other things like that

on the other hand, the apothecary diaries APPEARS to be set in 15th century China, but it's also not confirmed either so yes. this is fine. [strained smile]

so yeah! that's all I got for now JSJSJFHG I really want to write this AU but first I've got to pin down the dates and historical time periods bc my brain is weird like that. hope you enjoyed 🫶🏼

Yona on the Ship

[clovers-adventures-in-hyrule]

My sister is discovering fandom and the internet for the first time and she came up to me and was like in the most terrified tone "do you know what the frostbite set is? because everyone keeps talking about it. also they hate Yona. they really hate Yona. and there are so many sexy drawings of Purah? WHY?"

[neixins]

[ID: official art of yona and hak from “yona of the dawn”. hak is holding yona up and she’s resting her hands on his arms; they’re facing each other, smiling softly. yona is wearing red wide-sleeved robes with a blue sash around the waist; the sleeves and the lower part of the robes are decorated with large gold flowers, and the hemlines are blue with a gold pattern. hak is dressed in light blue wide-sleeved robes with blue and gold hemlines, patterned very similarly to yona’s. the sky behind them is blue and yellow, indicating dawn, and dotted with clouds. end ID.]

ok i Know i KNOW link is just so tiny compared to sidon that he always has to bend down like that to shake hands but LIKE. COME ON. this specific pose and more-gentle-than-usual handholding + pleading for link to accept his vow of loyalty + the fact that the power to summon him at any time comes in the form of a RING............

what part of this isn't a proposal. just because hes marrying yona doesnt mean he cant marry link too

hell hello so i saw that you were wanting more ideas for sidon x reader (i dunno if i worded that correctly) buuuuut what if it was sidon x reader x yona, i feel like that would be interesting since the relationship between the two is speculate to be a political one :)

I love both Sidon and Yona so much! Yona is such a sweet character while also being affirmative! This will be interesting to write! As they say... Sidon has two hands! I hope this turned out okay :)

The Power Trio

Sidon X Reader X Yona [Headcanons]

The three of you are the ones who keep Zora's Domain running so smoothly. A lot of the Zora state that you rule in sync. There's King Sidon, Queen Yona, and you. Sovereign (Y/n). It was the title that the Zora had chosen for you the day when you were wed to Prince Sidon and Lady Yona. It absolutely stuns all of the Zora of the strong communication the three of you have. It was a big change for all of the Zora, but a good one!

Sidon is typically the most busy. During days when he's away with duty; you and Yona will be sitting at a small pond. You both will be looking down at the water holding hands while Yona tells you embarrassing childhood stories about Sidon. You both will be laughing trying to catch a breath!

The King Sidon Fanclub will spot you and Yona together. Laruta tries to listen in on your guy's conversation about how Sidon would used to trip on his own tail fin. Tula and Tona don't hesitate one moment and immediately approach you both asking for details about what it's like being with Sidon. These two somehow assigned themselves as unofficial thirdwheels to you, Sidon, and Yona. They are always excited to hear about any possible details!

Whenever the three of you walk together, you ALWAYS end up in the middle between them! They see you as a small cute hylian. You try to disagree, they don't care. Yona is on the left, and Sidon is on the right. They are both holding your hand. They sometimes like lifting you up, emphasizing you being small.

Whenever the three of you cuddle, you get sandwiched between the two of them. You can't complain!

Sidon and Yona are very protective over you. Living in Zora's Domain as a hylian can sometimes pose as a challenge. Both of them make an effort to make sure you feel welcomed and adjusted.

One day, when an elder Zora is giving you trouble; Sidon and Yona were quick to notice how short and rude this elder Zora was to you. "Hey now. There's no need to be so fowl to our darling! They are our equal!" Sidon says, immediately stepping in, defending you.

Sidon does his best to keep things as civil as possible, Yona on the other hand... This woman won't tolerate ANY bullsh*t that this elder says. She immediately shuts the elder down. "Say anything else or you'll be facing consequences." Yona snaps rather coldly, compared to her warm and caring self. This is a terrifying side to her that you rarely see. You and Sidon look ABSOLUTELY shocked.

For the tradition of a "Zora Princess" making her armour for the person she weds, Sidon and Yona sat down and had a conversation about it. Before you became their fiancé, they both proposed to you with a set of earrings. It wasn't by Hylian or Zora tradition, but instead something new. Your guy's tradition!

When comforting you on bad days, Yona will hum you a song and play with your hair to keep you in the moment. Sidon on the other hand, will hold your hands and reassure you with soft and loving words.

Bonus Headcanon (Slight NSFW):

When the three of you are in bed, you always end up being the bottom. No matter how much you attempt to be assertive in bed, Yona and Sidon will always dominate you before you even get the CHANCE.

Extra post this week because my friend notified me that today is Yona of the Dawn's fifteenth anniversary and I had to do something for it. So, have a quick Yona and Hak illustration I whipped up.

It's been a while since I've done a couple pose and drawn a guy in general, so I had difficulty getting the anatomy right. But hey! At least the coloring looks good!

Yona of the Dawn is my favorite manga series. I've been reading it since 2018, so I have a soft spot for this series. And for Mizuho's other works. Please Viz, republish her older series.

I could rant about Yona forever. <3

ANYWAY PLEASE ENJOY THE HYCULE (hyrule + polycule) thanks @prisiidon​ for the name suggestion it’s sticking whenever I think of them 🦈🦈
