#spade the mole

[sunflowergem]

I know it says just two characters but you should answer 24 for all three of your new sonic girls

Edit: if you see this version, the ask is actually answered now

I really hope I covered everything since I had to go out at one session I might have just skipped some details I was thinking about earlier and I don't have a good way to go back to it again, sorry!

God fucking damn it Tumblr! So this ask is not actually done yet. I was trying to edit and save as I go and it changed it to the post button for some reason. Expect changes on this in the next hour or so. I will put an edit when it is done.

Asks for my new babies 🥹

How do these two (I was trying to put the tags in before being interrupted at work and I fully forgot to put in that it was meant for the three of them (⁠-⁠_⁠-⁠;⁠) three interact with each other in public versus in private?

I know I'm going to yap a lot so putting it under a cut

So we're going to get actually five different options here. The dynamic changes slightly when they are hanging out, just the three of them, with the main like Sonic cast, in public within the Sonic cast world, in public at school, and in their own world in public.

In public in their own world

So I've decided to make them fully celebrities in their own world. That means they definitely have to put a public face when they go out and about. I would imagine their demeanor is very similar to like famous singers when it comes to interviews and things like that. Maybe less controlled, but they definitely worry about their image and being good role models.

I was actually thinking about it on the ride home and I think they fall somewhere in between idols and heroes back home considering they have magic and the whole performance thing. I'll probably write up some more information on their dimensions dynamic later now that I'm starting to crystallize the idea in my head.

The dynamic in public is a little performative unless their incognito mode with like sunglasses, baseball cap, mask that really classic superstar under cover look lol

I could see Diamond planning out like what they should have as topics as an option when they're out and about to make sure nothing goes wrong. They keep conversations light-hearted in case things get overheard and of course they go on interviews and have to act the perfect part. Not sure exactly what kind of threats they be fighting in public in their own world, but the public really likes them since they're pretty fun and are trying to protect everyone. Everything's pretty hunky-dory on that side of their life.

In public at their school

It's when they're the most rigid and when anxiety between the three of them can get the highest. They have to both perform as public figures and as students in this setting. So each of them is under a lot of stress. They also tend to keep each other in check when they are as a group and out and about so on the classes that they have individually they tend to isolate themselves a lot more. It just became a defense mechanism to keep them from doing something stupid. They all also try and keep up really good grades for a multitude of reasons so it's not like they aren't busy. The best version of their dynamic is when they can study as a group at school. They'll still be personable, but everyone at school also knows that there's work to be done so they don't get bothered too much. Spade keeps steady sessions on and keeping everyone focused, Diamond finds exactly what needs to be studied and analyzing their own weaknesses within classes, Clover is great at bringing some levity to the study sessions. Clover also brings snacks if they're allowed, and sometimes even if they're not which Spade scolds her for, and is great at randomly finding really good information for a research projects just because her wandering the shelves when she gets bored, but still kind of actively looking for things that are on topic with their subject.

In public in the Sonic cast world

Once they realize they're in another dimension and are able to reunite with each other they realize they have a bit of a refreshing change of pace in this setting. They don't have to be constantly looking over their shoulder for somebody with a camera or worried about what might be overheard so they can act more like just a group of gals out on the town. Heading out to cafes to indulge in all kinds of food, talking about whatever they feel like, admiring cute folks that walk by, they can embrace careless attitude that they perform back in public in their own world, but they never actually are able to relax into. It makes the full of conversation a lot more easily skewed towards the deep which is good for their friendship overall. Late night chat sessions are great, but sometimes you end up just going into the weirdest topic and uncovering truths about yourself when sipping a latte. Some quality bonding time 🤌🏽

In private with the main Sonic cast (so their friends)

These girls are all about the hype and that does not stop when it's the cast hanging out with them in a more relaxed setting. I'm picturing game night with like some of the more mainstay characters and they're either fiercely competing or they are cheering on for the other players. Even it's at something as low energy as like chess.

Each of the girls has something that they get competitive about. Clover is all about speed as hedgehogs tend to be in the series so she'd be all in for racing. I could see Diamond getting super invested in a game of cards or like Scrabble. And Spade is super good at video games, just so many different types of video games. I don't think this is Canon but I could see tails being super into video games when he's not inventing. Just love the idea of them playing together and getting super into it. Adorable 🥰

Each of them would definitely have their own set of Canon characters that they get along more with. I'll definitely be writing out relationship Dynamics later on, but given you've got one that's super outgoing one that's more down to earth and another that's super quiet. You could probably start to picture who's going to hang out with who if you're familiar with the characters. If not, like I said I am going to do a relationship breakdown with some of them Canon folks another time. It is just getting late and I want to make sure this is done, especially since Tumblr decided to fight me on this.

On the same vein of them hanging out with other characters. The girls love hanging out with each other, but sometimes finding folks that match your energy kind of exactly is a great change of pace. In like group party settings, they tend to ebb and flow with how often you can find them as a trio or separated. Often. They'll begin social gatherings for like the first hour or so as a bundle. Split off and go hang with like their people for an hour or two and then rebound back to being a trio for like 30 minutes usually and a bit more of a private but still public area. They need the 30 minutes to recharge before taking another round out and about with everyone else. This social pace tends to stay consistent until the party is over it just repeats in a cycle.

In private just the three of them

Ideal roommates. Clover adores cooking and is basically in charge of the whole kitchen. The others sometimes need to remind her to clean up, but once he point her in the right direction, she's on it. Spade manages technology and bills within the house/ apartment (not sure where exactly I want them to live yet) she's also in charge of division of labor when it comes to anything else. As far as cleaning and taking care of their domicile. She tends to keep it well balanced and other than Clover having dominion over the kitchen, no one gets stuck with one of the lamer chores like cleaning the bathroom constantly. Diamond is on top of bigger repairs and whatever greenery they might have. She's also the self-care queen and make sure that the other two are unwinding. Spade from managing everything and Clover from just her general slightly manic airhead energy. If it's just the three of them, diamond is definitely the most level-headed of the group. If there's any kind of arguing between Spade and Clover, you can be sure that she's there to manage it and make sure that everything comes to a satisfactory conclusion. The vibe in their space most of the time is like perpetual sleepover. Once all of their outside world responsibilities are finished 80% of the time it's them hanging out like it's summer vacation. Video games, movie marathons, doing online quizzes, face masks and just being silly together. 20% of the time you might lose one of them to needing some solitude. They each have their own room that they can retreat to and unless the other two think something is actually wrong, they won't question too hard if somebody needs some time to themselves.

As duos, Spade and Clover tend to hang out in the kitchen because Clover would be maybe making something and Spade. Is there sitting at the table chatting away about like whatever latest movie or gossip topic might be on their mind. Diamond and Spade might start watching a movie, but it'll dissolve into them being their own version of like mystery theater, 3000 or whatever that show was called with them absolutely tearing it to shreds. They both love so bad it's good movies so it works out. Clover and Diamond are more likely to end up in a either philosophic conversation or just quietly reading together. Diamond's the best at settling down Clover's energy. Spade brings out the more side in Diamond. And Clover gets spayed away from worrying about school or life or any of that stuff that they have to deal with when they head outside.

Okay, I feel like this is getting long and I think that answers most of it. Like I said, I'm going to do a relationship breakdown with some of the Canon characters and da girlz another time so look forward to that but yeah I hope this answers everything 💖

character designers when they need to design a mascot for a masculine vocal synthesizer: and i will put a mole. under his LEFT eye

[kdjojo]

I would've like to say that, Deuce, under his mask, he has moles under his eyes. It suits him. Don't even try to deny it.

[spamtoon]

(Out of nowhere, you are approached by a familiar lightbulb-headed Cog.)

Ah, it's you, cat. Thinking you're oh-so-slick. Muttering and whispering under those raggedy whiskers of yours... Thinking I am unable to hear it all...

Well, you've simply underestimated my fantastic hearing. You probably want to know the reason why I'm here, taking a 'break' from my incredibly important scientific breakthroughs? It's quite simple, really!

(She gets close, and squints her eyes.)

I know what you are.

Farewell, now!

(She then leaves the way she came from.)

(Spam giggles immensely, covering her face... it always seems like she's giggling, isn't she? This lasts... at least thirty seconds. Longer than usual.)

And I know what I am too, Sparky! You broke through something, that's for sure. Really, broke through...

(She looks down, continuing to laugh nervously.)

You know, I find it odd you Havent tried to bulb blast me into the stratosphere by now. I mean knowing how you acted with Frostbite. Is there something peculiar about me that you perhaps can't quite track? Something about me that you... don't know what I am?

I know, I know, I'm talking to nobody again. But you were there when I had a moment today with the one the only Frostbite The Bravecog. You may be remaining. Lurking in the shadows. Knowing about these thoughts that I'm thinking.

(The giggling resumes, lasting far shorter this time.)

Your brother's a piece of fucking barp, by the way

(She braces for impact for a few seconds, wincing while smiling, before comically looking around to realize nobody's there. She sighs.)

Wow, okay maybe toony superhero show logic doesn't apply in this situation. Cool.

WAIT I JUST FUCKING REALIZED WHAT SHE MEANT but like. Dude if she meant that then what's the point I mean the whole ahh sellbot department barping knows unless you're Really low on the ladder. Heheh... maybe she did mean what I thought she meant.

Oh i'm so fucking screwed. What kind of bitch gets filament fever

[skeedelvee]

My mom made me Simon and Baz amigurumis!

Look how cute they are!!!! She is truly a crocheting wizard 💜

I’m still deciding on if I’ll sew on some moles for Simon with embroidery thread, but we’ll see

I helped to make the spade for Simon’s tail and I also shaved down an old and broken bone crochet hook of my mom’s to make Baz’s little wand

I also made scones yesterday and took some pictures with them. Very excited to make more little scenes for them! If y’all have any requests, pop them in the comments!

Space time RT and the recent trend of controlling luck 

In my personal writing I like to use a shared universe with one main magic system and I think RT could fit into it pretty interestingly if y’all are interested 

The idea is that the laws of physics are all the same as real life, but the laws of probability /arent/. In real life it is possible for a single atom to randomly teleport, for two electrons to be connected over infinite space, for energy to be created—but only if it is instantly destroyed. And the trick to it is that it is all horribly, /terribly/ rare. 

But here, rare things happen all the time. Rare things are just as common as common things. Not just one atom can be teleported, but moles and moles of them. A person can be on one side of the earth and then suddenly somewhere entirely else. Single atoms from across the universe can suddenly align themselves to perfectly emulate an ace of spades. 

What if RT, unlikely, could control those probabilities? What if, anytime he wished for something unlikely to happen, it did? What if the universe aligned in such a coincidental way that it seemed like it listened to him? Control may not technically be the right word, the god of randomness did not hold favors, but that those so unlikely events coincided with his best interest could easily he interpreted as such. 

Meteorites crashed where he wanted them to, space debris taking that rare opportunity to fall. Cards that he picked always added up to twenty one, to a flush, to an uno. Lucky drops in games were determined by the computer, by ones and zeroes connected to atoms across the universe. Accidents didn’t happen to him, only to those around him. Only to those against him.

fun little twisted wonderland thing i was thinking about recently* bc of a video i watched about carnival games

*(this was like MONTHS ago, so it took a bit of jogging my memory when i got back to this lol)

First Years Play Fairgrounds Games

The first years decide to spend a Saturday together at the fairgrounds. Yuu points out how the games they find are all extremely similar to the ones back in their world. And if that's true then they'll have trouble winning a prize with their kind of luck. Grim is convinced he can win the prizes himself, even proclaiming that he could beat the others at every game. With that, the competitive nature of the group kicks in and now they have to prove who can bring home the most big winning prizes. 1 point for small prizes, 2 points for big prizes.

Ace Trappola:

The gang heads to the Milk Bottle Toss and he hangs back a bit so the other boys try the games first. It was after Ace's successful milk bottle knock out when Deuce realized he just mimicked Jack's form perfectly. Some might consider this cheating, but the way Ace sees it he's simply taking and applying what he observes. (+2)

He is forced to go first at every booth now.

Ortho is very impressed in Ace's ability to mimic, having been familiar with this unique skill from working on the Fairy Gala together, while Sebek reprimands Ace for his underhanded scheming. Grim argues that the big prize he just won from cheating should go under Grim's score in the competition. Epel counters that the point should probably go to Jack since it was his form that won Ace the prize in the first place. Jack says that if he's going to win, he's not going to do it with pity points. Deuce says the point should go to Yuu since Grim's the one playing for the two of them. Ace agrees, saying that Yuu and Grim's scores won't be a threat to his chances of winning anyways. (-2)

He manages to win a small prize at the Ring Toss, getting 3 of the 5 rings on the glass bottles. Grim laughs that Ace really isn't all that impressive without piggybacking off of other people, to which Ace shoots back, "Bold words for someone sitting on Yuu's shoulders." (+1)

His best score is from the Basketball Shootout, winning him a big prize. It took him a shot to adjust to the height and distance (compared to an actual basketball court set-up) but he didn't need to sink any more money into that one, and managed to put his name on the board for the competition. (+2)

He's pretty good at the Balloon Darts, since a lot of that is precise wrist work, which is also important for magic tricks. He managed to get the flick of the wrist just right, but only after a few whiffs at the beginning, ending with a small prize winning. (+1)

With the Chance games, the Wheel of Fate got him a big prize, and the Fishing Game left him fishless. He was surprisingly good at Whack-A-Mole, but only getting a small prize in the end. (+2) (+1)

Total Score: 9 points

Deuce Spade:

When the competition was first proposed, Deuce was against it, thinking that an Honor Student wouldn’t make a fun and relaxing day at the fairgrounds into something intense for the sake of pride. However, with the right buttons pushed by Ace, and Epel’s “uncharacteristic” enthusiasm, he started to reconsider. Thanks to Yuu’s words of encouragement to participate with the group, he ultimately caves.

In fact, he was initially the one to lead, giving the booth’s the first attempt (until Ace got caught, of course).

At the Milk Toss, he manages to get a small prize, knocking half of the stacked bottles down! After him was Jack, and Ace followed. Deuce, involuntarily familiar with Ace’s antics, was able to pick up on the way Ace watched Jack with intense focus. It wasn’t until Ace threw his last ball at the stack of bottles did Deuce realize how Ace copied Jack’s form. (+2)

Next is the Ring Toss. Deuce couldn’t get the wrist flick right, and only managed to get one ring on a bottle. Unfortunately, this didn’t qualify for any prize. Ace, of course, couldn’t help but rub it in his face that he managed to get 3 rings on. (0)

At the Basketball Shootout, he expected Ace to do exceptionally well, so that was no surprise. What did surprise him was how he managed to win a small prize himself! He’s a lot better at games with bigger targets (hoops>bottle necks), so he was able to get enough baskets to make up for his ring toss performance. (+1)

With this logic, you’d expect him to not do well with Balloon Darts, but he actually gets himself a big prize. Epel wonders how he pulled that off, and Deuce admits that he and his middle school friends often played darts, so the muscle memory was still there to help target the balloons. Sebek commends Deuce’s display of hand-eye-coordination, which surprises Deuce for receiving a sincere compliment from him. (+2)

For the Chance games, he spins the Wheel of Fate and gets a small prize and is fishless from the Fishing Game. But with his speed and strength, he wins a big prize from Whack-a-Mole! (+1) (+2)

Total Score: 8 points

Jack Howl:

As you would expect, Jack did incredibly well with the Milk Bottle Toss and won himself a big prize. The praise from Deuce, Epel, and Yuu had his tail whirling, making it very difficult to seem unaffected by their words. (+2)

And~ as you would expect, Jack was quite pissed when it was brought to light that Ace copied off his work. Like any competition, he wanted things to be fair and square to prove just how skilled he is. He also didn’t like the idea of being given points he didn’t earn himself, so he rejected the idea of Ace handing the 2 points over to him. Similar to Ace’s thinking, giving Grim and Yuu the points wouldn’t be a problem as Grim is the last competitor he’s concerned about (and Yuu couldn’t pay for both of them to play the games so Yuu can keep the prize itself). He swears that’s his only reasoning.

He was better at the Ring Toss than Deuce, and even Ace, getting 4 of the 5 rings on bottles. This gets him a big prize! He and his younger siblings often played this game back home. (+2)

Similar to Deuce, Jack does really well with Basketball Shootout! He only manages to get a small prize, because let’s be real, how are you going to beat a basketball club member at a basketball themed game booth? A lot of what was throwing him off was tossing the ball too high and hitting the backboard too hard. (+1)

Throwing softballs at milk bottles is a lot different than throwing darts at balloons, and unfortunately Jack doesn’t do so hot, making it his first major loss for the afternoon. While Ace laughs at the major whiffs, Sebek lecturing him about the importance of training all of your body, even the smallest movements in your wrists. (0)

At the Chance Games, the Wheel of Fate gave him a small prize, his speed and strength getting him a big prize at Whack-A-Mole, and he even got himself a fish at the fishing game! He wasn’t sure what he was going to do with it, and considered giving it to his younger siblings. He figures he’ll take care of it until the next vacation he heads back home to give it to them. (+1) (+2) (+2)

Total Score: 10 points

Epel Felmier:

These city slickers don’t know what’s coming. This country boy has attended the annual country fair every year since he was a little kid. His family would always have a booth open for apple themed carnival food, like caramel apples, apple fritters, fried apple hand pies, you name it. Because of this, he often got to roam the fairgrounds (with a chaperone obviously) and play all sorts of games like these.

Milk Bottle Toss? Easy-Peezy. He takes two of the three shots to knock all the bottles down, making sure to aim for the bottle row to have the whole stack topple over. He can’t help but bask in the praise from his more competitive peers (Deuce, Jack, and Sebek), but it was really Yuu’s astonished praise that really motivates Epel to win this competition at all costs. (+2)

Ring Toss? No Problem. He gets 4 of the 5 rings on the bottle necks, though he expected himself to better considering his experience with these games. At the very least, he matched Jack’s score, so he can’t be too hard on himself about it. (+2)

Basketball Shootout? Well… He didn’t do so hot with this one, only getting a small prize, but nobody wanted to be the one to tell him it could be because of his height (even Sebek had the tact to refrain). It was actually Ortho who wanted to help with analytics of the height difference and form. Epel, knowing Ortho means well, simply grit his teeth and thanked him. (+1)

He makes his big comeback with Balloon Darts, popping them left and right. Carving apples requires a lot of hand and wrist control, so adjusting and applying it to throwing darts helped him a lot. Sebek, having already been impressed by his apple carving, praises him for his performance, even telling Jack that he should be striving for this level of control. (+2)

With the Chance Games, the Wheel of Fate thought he'd won too many big prizes that day, it seemed, so it only gave him a small one. He does get a fish at the Fishing Game, though! And he kills it at Whack-A-Mole with a big prize in the end. (+1) (+2) (+2)

Total Score: 11 points

Sebek Zigvolt:

At first, Sebek thought that such a competition was beneath him. Why would a fae lower themselves to participate in something so trivial? He was originally just going to observe, watching Deuce, Jack, and Ace go at the Milk Bottle Toss. However, Ace’s utter disrespect for the display of skill of throwing a softball had him livid, enough to “show you humans how it’s done.” So after Epel had his chance, and was impressed by his honest show of skill, Sebek gave it a go.

And boy did it go. Struck right in the center bottle. You’d think that’d topple all the bottles, but really it just left a hole in the bottle’s absence. His throw was so precise and fast, much like pulling a tablecloth off a table and not disturbing the dishware, the remaining bottles hadn’t budged. He had hoped to get it in one toss, but it sadly took him all 3 softballs to knock it all down. He won the big prize! But this certainly played with his pride. Now the competition is more so between him and whatever booth activity stands before him. (+2)

Ring toss was a fair enough fight. He and Silver used to play something similar back when they were kids. But it wasn’t part of their training, so it took more time to adjust his form, and only managed to get 3 of his 5 rings on the bottles. Oh, you KNOW Ace had to rub it in that Sebek was sure talking all high and might with his fae superiority nonsense, only to get an average score. (+1)

He doesn't do well with the Basketball Shootout. He's never played basketball, and there was nothing like this in his training regime so he has nothing really to go off of with this one, leading him to getting no prize in the end. (0)

But he’s not always just Talk, as he does excellent at Balloon Dart, just as he had made a point of the importance of wrist control. With all these prizes, he’s not thinking about how his haul would impress Malleus and Lilia, and begins to wonder if any of these cheaply made prizes at this fair are worthy enough to be gifted to either of them. “I suppose Silver can have whatever it is that Malleus and Lilia don’t choose.” (he is totally making sure to pick at least a couple prizes he thinks Silver would genuinely like). (+2)

The Wheel of Fate, despite the rough handling Sebek gave it when spinning it as hard as he did, gave him a small prize. To make up for it, and because he’s a croc fae (fanon), of COURSE he got himself a fish at the Fishing Game. (He has half a mind to call it Waka-sama Jr.) And he does extremely well at Whack-A-Mole, reminiscing of a training activity very similar to this one, but with Lilia controlling the speed. This Whack-A-Mole is actually beneath him. (+1) (+2) (+2)

Total Score: 10 points

Ortho Shroud:

In order to make it fair, Ortho agreed to turn off his aimbot, so now he has to calculate his shots in a similar way a human would. He wins a few small prizes from the Milk Bottle Toss and Ring toss. He missed the Balloon Darts since the darts and balloons were smaller than the other targets and projectiles. (+1) (+1)

He got one basket in the Basketball Shootout, but on his last ball, so he only got a small prize. It helped him really respect Ace's skill in the sport without the use of supercomputer calculations and aimbots to assist him. (+1)

He much prefers the games of chance as it reminded him of all the fun games he and Idia played growing up. However, he spun the Wheel of Fate so hard it almost rolled off its axle, but he got a big prize out of it! He won a fish at the Fishing Game, and he got super excited at the prospect of taking care of a little fish all by himself, and planned to look into proper goldfish care. (+2) (+1)

He broke the Whack-A-Mole machine, though. (Luckily, he was the last of the group to try this one.) He repaid the booth runner for the damages with Shroud Family money, and although the booth runner wanted to make a quick buck out of the (deceptively) innocent looking child, Ortho was able to appraise the machine for much cheaper than the asking price. So although he didn't win a prize from it, at least he didn't get swindled (can be considered its own victory lol).

He learned a lot of what the human body is capable of, and looks forward to analyzing his recordings of the day’s events to apply to his body as time goes on.

Total Score: 6 points

Grim:

Yuu gave him a fair chance at the start of the visit but soon realized that his lack of opposable thumbs seems to hinder his capability of winning any game that involves technical skills. So to make sure he doesn't sink too much of their shared money, Yuu decided to turn his attention towards games of Chance. (Thankfully they got Ace’s initial big prize to get them on the board) (+2)

[Before Ortho had his turn] He's really good at Whack-A-Mole, though it's debatable whether standing on the machine was allowed. The person running the booth thought Grim was so cute pouncing at the moles, she was willing to overlook the issue and presented him his big prize. (+2)

For Wheel of Fate, Grim has Yuu spin it for him, but doesn't win anything substantial, only a small baggie of candy. Grim blames Yuu's bad luck on that one but happily eats all the candy himself. (+1)

He was banned from the Fishing Game booth when the booth runner realized he mysteriously lost more fish than he's had players attempt his game. Grim's huge burp was the booth runner's biggest indicator.

Yuu decides to take him to the kiddie games (without telling him they were kiddie games). Grim felt like a king with how many prizes he won from those (thinking they were still games of chance and that his luck was the greatest in the group.) He rubbed it in their faces, but they all had to just let him have it this time. (+1)

Total Score: 6 points

In the end, Epel is the winner, but what would you expect? A country boy put on a flat lot full of fairgrounds games, he’s in his element. Now the next step for the boys is figuring out what to do with all these prizes…

------------

this was fun to write. i don't ever write these kinds of things for any fandom, but it was fun thinking of which character did better than the others with the different games. i also hope i did each character justice, like i didnt shortchange any of them. (i was particularly worried about sebek's section since he's not really a character i ever think about, which is why i wanted to make extra sure his section had substance to it lol).

i hope this was enjoyable to read, and i'd love to hear your thoughts on who 🫵YOU think should have won in the end!

[sunthyme]

Okay y'all made the mistake of encouraging me so here's my headcanons and some ocs for Heartslabyul!

Sorry for how small it is but format-wise, I'll discuss the dorm leader, then canon characters in descending year order, then ocs in descending year order.

Also, decided to make the school co-ed because 🌸 girls pretty 🌸! And safer for Yuu. Additionally, as a general rule of thumb, if a character is the same gender as the og reference, I tend to make them transgender in some way.

Anyways!

♥️Riddle Rosehearts♥️

(she/her) Transfem - Panromantic and Demisexual

- Firstly, transfem Riddle has my heart so there's that.

- I made her mixed, probably British and Chinese, though I'm open to suggestions cause these are pretty much first drafts.

- From the get-go I wanted her to have hella freckles, idk they're cute.

- Also toned down her og hair, too many damn gingers in this house lol. Gave her grey streaks from her stressful ass childhood.

Next up,

♣️Trey Clover♣️

(he/him) - Bisexual

- I made him black. No particular reason other than his og skin was waaay to pale in contrast to his hair, in my opinion.

- The reason he and Riddle seem so close is 'cause he and Che'nya were the first to know Riddle was trans and he does his best to cover for her.

- Autistic, dental hygiene is a strange special interest but whatever floats his boat.

- Also, he still wears glasses, I was just lazy lol.

Onto

♦️Cater Diamond♦️

(he/they) Transmasc - Pansexual and Demiromantic

- Stayed more or less the same. Gave some lighter blonde streaks for 🌟flavour🌟. You can decide whether those freckles are real or not.

- The first of the Depression Club(tm) characters because I love Cater angst. Wait til you find out my kin list omg.

- If we're talking my college AU, he'd be a cosmology or cosmetology major, whichever the makeup one is idk. He was taught by an older sister (who works at a tattoo shop/piercing parlour) how to do piercings and is the primary piercer on campus. He did Trey's probably Riddles, Adeuce's lip piercings and more characters that'll show up later.

- The one natural ginger left in Heartslabyul (I hunted them to near extinction lmao). Also, transmasc. I think his mom really wanted all girls and was not thrilled about him being trans. Anyways!~

Ah, now for

♥️Ace Trappola♥️

(he/him) - Bisexual

- Made him half Hispanic, half Asian. No particular specifics (again, open to suggestions pls I love hearing others' headcanons). Also got some freckles, I fucking love birthmarks lmao.

- As mentioned, I'm on a crusade against the gingers /jk but I did give him dyed hair. He and Deuce dye their hair together, idk cute date idea tbh.

- Adeuce also got lip piercings together, even though Deuce tried to warn Ace that lip piercing aren't the best first ones, Ace insisted. Cue Deuce having to help take care of Ace's piercing cause he's a dumbass. Can you tell I love them? And their one collective braincell.

- Crippling ADHD, this bitch cannot sit still to focus on anything.

Speaking of Deuce,

♠️Deuce Spade♠️

(he/him) Transmasc - Gay

- He's half-Filipino, half Vietnamese(? Not quite sure yet) and I gave him dyed hair too, obvi.

- Gave him his momma's blonde streaks and some scars from his delinquent day, plus some piercings.

- Couple moles for funsies, and made his eyes brown.

- He is soooo AuDHD, people can fight me on that. On god, he's my son. Also transmasc, his mom is an amazing ally (she's probably bi herself nvm).

Onto my ocs!

🔮Oki Chiang🔮

Third Year - (she/her) - Asexual Aromantic

- So this is my girlie twisted from the Blue Caterpillar. She's not a smoker or anything but I think she's be a total incense and perfume and whatnot girl.

- Spiritualistic and whenever you walk into her room, it smells amazing. If you want a tarot reading, she's your girl.

- Oki's very reserved and tends to keep to herself, often reading or quietly sipping some tea with Riddle as they work.

- She's Taiwanese and also autistic. Her whole wardrobe is blue, so are most of her things and she love nice smells.

Next up is

🎀Luna Madden🎀

Second Year - (she/they/it/whatever, she doesn't care too much) - Bisexual Aromantic

- You'll never guess who she's based on /j. My Mad Hatter character! I didn't have a particular ethnicity in mind for her but she takes heavy inspiration from Harujuku fashion.

- She and Cater have to work together to dye her hair every time it needs touch ups. It's a huge pain in the ass but she likes how it looks and Cater is fine helping.

- Has acne and uses those cute lil star and heart cut-out patches to cover it.

- She LOVES bright colours and has way too much fun prepping for the tea parties. Owns a ton of weird and neat lil earrings that she likes to mix and match.

- Also has ADHD. I feel like that's obvious lol.

Now for

⏳Bunnie Chrona⏳

First Year - (she/her) - Asexual Lesbian

- Twisted from the White Rabbit, and a super creative name I know... I don't have a ton of explanation here other than I thought it would look neat.

- I was super close to giving her all white hair but I didn't want another character with dark skin and light hair (which will be relevant in later designs too) so I gave her a gradient. All natural, by the way.

- She's autistic too and gets extremely anxious whenever she's late or someone else is late (Adeuce constantly give her heart attacks because of this).

- She's also a part of the track and field club!

Last, but certainly not least

💥Ness Benoit💥

First Year - (she/they) Transfem - Bicurious?

- Last girl and she's based on Lock from The Nightmare Before Christmas movie. Spoiler, she is one of three triples, I assigned them to different houses, and they have an older sister based on the Boogeyman.

- I thought it'd be cute to give her little devil horns as a hairstyle and I made her makeup the same as the og characters'.

- It's been a hot second since I've seen this movie so I can't remember much about the kiddos' characterisations but my dad said Lock was the brains of the of operation so she gets book smarts.

- Also, her name is a silly little joke on 'loch-ness' because I was too lazy to try and find something else.

Thank you so much if you read until the end, this was a massive post to make. I'll make my Savanaclaw one tomorrow, hopefully. If I remember lol.

Love you! 🩷🩷🩷

Realistic Deuce Spade + Headcanons

Deuce Spade + Realistic artwork done with Art Breeder and edited in Clip Art Studio:

Ready to meet the goodest boy? I am. (always)

Sidenote: When headcanoning Deuce and all my other characters I take both factual and some of my personal thoughts/beliefs of the character to construct my headcanons.

Back to my rendition, I didn't give deuce any flaws necessarily (moles, acne, freckles, etc.) since I can not picture deuce with bad skin and he just seems like he tries to keep himself tidy and neat after being accepted into NRC. (Even if he did have a bit, after his change in behaviour he would try to fix it to again look more tidy and put together).

However, it's not shown in the art since it's not to that level of detail but he has a couple of past holes in his ears from piercings and he has a reverse tramp stamp above his yk yk from his rebellious days. How’d he got it without being of age? Idk really but probs a fake ID or something. Anyways it's just a simple design I chose from pinterest which i'll draw him with someday but it's basically just a spikey sorta design?? Idk how to describe it.

I also made this deuce half asian, Japanese to be precise, as I have seen a lot of people headcanon it, plus it makes sense to the extent that a sign of rebellion in Japanese households is dying hair which deuce mentions he did back in middle school.

For his features, Deuce has hooded eyes, a bit thinner and higher eyebrows, a straight nose that is upturned at the end, sorta longer eyelashes and an upside down triangle face shape, most of this is taken from his character model but taking some liberties to make the cast more diverse in terms of appearance.

For his body its a trapezoid shape so wider shoulders and a smaller waist, however he has pretty muscular legs (from track and field) and I’m caking my boy up 🫡. He has just regular size hands and feet but slightly longer fingers.

Aw yes, another slight british accent, sorry not sorry 🤭 – used to use heavy slang but stopped after getting accepted into NRC but it slips out here and there.

Without & With Face Makeup:

Personality and backstory headcanons + a bit of character analysis:

Deuce, like Ace, is one of the first characters/friends we meet in the game, he is presumed to be a very sensible and hardworking student (which he does try very hard to be) but always ends up getting himself into trouble. We later learn of his past as a delinquent which we can connect to his still aggressive nature towards hostile people who threaten him or his friends. I haven't seen much extreme mischaracterisation of Deuce personally because he's an extremely hard character to mischarcterise as the game is very straight forward with his presentation and past.

But diving deeper into his character we can discover why he's the way he is. Its cannon that his parents are split with his father completely out of the picture, and we never hear of a grandfather (maybe due to another divorce or death) so he grew up around all women which in theory is great for a boy since they learn all about how exactly to care for them but can also be straining.

Even if Deuce loved his mother and vice versa, he still would have wanted a father figure, which could be why he became a delinquent. Obviously the other delinquents were either kids of his age or a bit older which were the only ones in his eyes that could maybe fill in that role as a father figure. I know it's canon he became a delinquent because of his slow learning, feeling the need to just not try at all but subconsciously, it could have meant more to him.

When he heard his mother on the phone crying about if she's raising him wrong, if she’s a bad mother, etc. it made Deuce realise what he's been doing, that he's been taking the easy way out of things. Even though he probably didn't (and still to this day) realise he was hanging around the older delinquents because he saw them as potential father figures. (help my boy plsssssssss)

We all already know Deuce is a big mama's boy, not the sharpest tool in the shed and can have a bit of a temper when provoked, I believe Deuce is also emotionally aware of his friends. Women are known to be the more emotionally aware and supportive gender stereotype, and with Deuce only being around them he must've found his foreground (we using the big english essay words) on being able to see when someone is upset and/or mad at him or something. Even though he may be able to see it he might be a bit awkward with the comfort as again, he's still an awkward teen. 

With deep conversations, he will try his absolute best to understand and will ask questions to further his knowledge on the topic even though he might not completely get it. He would never try to avoid or show immediate distaste for these conversations because he feels he really gets to know the type of person you are based on them (Ace learn something from Deuce). 

Deuce appreciates quality time with friends alot, and especially appreciates people he knows are there for him as well as those who he knows he could tell anything to and would never be judged. He probably had to fake things about his childhood and personality to his old delinquent friends and never really realised it until he got real supportive friends like Ace, Grim and Yuu.

My editor/assistant cause I can’t grammar or spell to save my life: @cyb3rpnnk 

SIDENOTE: DO NOT REPOST MY REALISTIC RENDITION OF DEUCE OR ANY OTHER CHARACTER I DO AS YOUR OWN. EVEN THOUGH THE BASE WAS MADE WITH AI IT IS STILL MY CREATION!

However you are permitied to use my headcanoing as your own for art or stories or whatever, just not my realistic rendition.

Also if you want realistic dating headcanons with the cast please leave a comment and I might do it! Btw if I do, these headcanons will be based on my normal headcanons of the characters.

Twisted Wonderland Headcanons Heartslabyul + Che'nya

I finally have the time to do this post. I've wanted to do this one for a while but life and other stuff got in the way. So... Yeah! All character art used is by me, headcanons may have some basis on friends hcs I like, but overall its very much what I think. More under the cut.

If something is trendy and isn't too expensive, he is buying and wearing it till the trend ends.

barely passing grades, but still passing.

has had an off with your head for almost failing sometimes, but Riddle had to just accept Cater is not the brightest academically.

if he could, he would pay double to get more piercings but Riddle would probably actually chop his head off for that.

Social butterfly, but heavy impostor syndrome.

has hidden eyebags with makeup before from spending hours doom-scrolling on his phone

Has a crush on Trey but is too afraid of rejection to make a move.

Bigender He/they

If Ace wasn't his closest friend at NRC with Yuu and Grim, it would be Epel

💚🧡💜Da Gurls!!

Behind the scenes on the making of and some lore for them under the cut 👍🏽 I hope I remembered everything this time, Tumblr might have messed me up.

If you saw a post like this earlier and then it suddenly disappeared. It's because Tumblr bungled itself and I was trying to edit a draft and then save and it posted for some reason and deleted the like five paragraphs I had added. So now I've got to remember where those were go back and add them again and then get back to finishing this 🤬😡

The shine on some of the metallic bits went hard on that first picture so I took a couple angled shots. And there's also like the progress here. Getting the proportions right for this was insanity inducing 😵‍💫

So yeah, here's more confirmed looks at Clover, Spade, and Diamond. There might still be a few things that get tweaked in the future, but overall I'm pretty happy with this. Colors are a little limited because of markers, but one day I'll do a digital version with a bit more control. It overall gets the color scheme across though and I had a lot of fun with the metallic paint pens.

So collectively they are known as team charm. As a group they function very much as like early 2000s girlz™ vibes with like being absolute besties and each other's biggest hype man. They also very much become the biggest cheerleaders they can for anyone they deem as their friends. So some of the other teams in the main series eventually will get the same treatment. I'm thinking it would be cool if they could cast buffs on folks to help in like fighting scenarios even if they aren't being main character fighters at that time. I just think it would be a neat way for there to be diegetic music when folks be fighting.

As I said in there the first rough sketch post they come from a different dimension from the main Sonic the Hedgehog folk. I've been watching timeline videos to try and get a wrap around Canon lore and where they would fit best. I think the rough outline for their story would be that they ended up lost and now they're trying to get back to their own dimension. Timing wise I think Clover could pop up somewhere during adventure 1 as a new character and she mentions she's looking for her friends. At the end of that game I'm seeing a cutscene if you like a rank, everything or something like that, I'm not actually super familiar with the games, but there'd be in an ending scene where she's reuniting with the two of them. Next game they'd be working as a team trying to figure out how they accidentally ended up there and how to go home.

Vague backstory wise their dimension has a lot of people who use magic. Very fantasy heavy and they go to school together to try and harness their own forms of magic. Clovers is vocal, Spade is kinesthetic (dancing), and Diamond works with instrumental. Magic system is very soft on rules and overall the magic is connected to both creativity and emotion/ willpower. On the weekend, which is why they're in their casual outfits not school uniform, there was an incident with an experiment and the pendant that Clover is wearing. It's hard to tell in the first picture. I'll try and do a close-up another time, but it's a heart-shaped pendant that belonged to her mom. Students of magic get charms to help them restrict and refine magic until it can be properly controlled by the user. Clover has a hand-me-down charm since they can be a little expensive to be made and her mother's not around anymore. Spades charm is on her hat and Diamonds is the belt buckle (It might change to be the tie clip instead one day. I'm not sure which one I like more) and of course, each of the charms glow when the girls are activating their magic. I also think it would be fun to pull some magical girl inspiration into this so they can change their outfits to match the genre of music that they're vibing with when casting magic. The outfits here are their default because it's their favorite genres. But eventually I'll draw like everyone in things for classical music or everyone in things for hip hop and then so on and so forth. I also think it could be neat if like there was a bit of an element system and it changed along with their genre or maybe it just depends on the song or the mood of the person doing the performance. Which for reference performance would be like the umbrella term for all three of their types of magic. It's also why they're magic is so compatible with each other.

But yeah something went funky with Clover's charm. Maybe they were trying to change it so it matches color since the red clashes majorly with the outfit. Perhaps it was a different spell. Detail of why the accident happened is unimportant. What is important is that they ended up on the same planet as Sonic and friends (I think it's Earth but when I was watching lore videos was rather unclear) at first they were separated so first people would see Clover she'd be very much focused on trying to find her friends.

After reuniting I have vague ideas for them being connected somehow to the Black Doom stuff and that's why they ended up being called to another dimension. Not sure if I love that as a plot point, but it does make it easy for them to head back to their own dimension afterwards. I figure magic in this system just kind of has a will of its own and lets them go home after that. After that they pop in and out of stories as I see fit. Once I've got a better handle on the timeline I might do a list of where any of them might appear in any of the games/other media properties. I also if I ever write this, might do just completely original story and have it set in the magic universe and the Sonic characters end up there somehow. And then I could tie in flashbacks for like how these folks met and all that. I think it could be kind of fun. Just good silly fanfic fodder.

But let's give some information on the girls individually shall we. I'm also going to slip in some reasons why I made certain decisions and background on how these guys kind of developed in my brain. Just cuz it's a few things are funny to me about the whole process.

Clover the Hedgehog

The first of this group of OCS that I thought of and I've had her rattling around in my brain for a while, but this is a more finalized version, which is why I'm now sharing it with the world. Clover is about as happy go lucky as she looks. She's very much supposed to come off as in early 2000s girly girl character which is kind of a departure for my original thought.

Originally I thought I'd be kind of neat to make a tomboy girl Hedgehog in contrast to Amy Rose from like main series. There is a lack of female hedgehogs obviously and I thought that would be a very characteristic of like when Sonic was coming out to make a tomboy girl. But over time she became more of a pop idol vibe in my head and it just brings me much more joy this way. She's very casually flirtatious in interactions as opposed to like Amy being single-minded with Sonic for a good chunk of her screen time. I thought a lot on how to contrast and compliment Amy, when I was developing Clover at first some things are remnants from that. However, unlike Amy, Clover is rarely serious about her flirtations.

I just realized that Clover from totally spies also has the whole flirtation personality trait and I didn't do that on purpose lol

Clover came from small town where her mother and father had a little family band kind of thing. They used to be a singing in like guitar Duo before Clover came along and they started to bring her into the mix too. Clover adore performing! Clover's mother ended up out of the picture. Not sure if I want to write her as fully dead or just disappeared and maybe there's a mystery. But yeah either way she gone (for now) and we had single dad raising Clover for a while. Once Clover started to show signs of magic, I'm thinking in my world maybe this starts to happen around double-digits usually so Clover was old enough to remember her mother but her mother didn't see her magic search to develop. The family was originally saving up to get Clover a charm made for her before sending her off to school but Clover asked if she could keep her mother's instead.

Clover at school was very much a social butterfly but didn't have a lot of close friends until she met Spade and Diamond. The trio ended up being instant besties and started performing together. These small performances at college would end up growing into them being musical stars in their dimension before they mysteriously disappeared to the dimension with canon characters.

Clovers the speedy character in the trio because of course the hedgehog gotta go fast. She's pretty fast on just her feet, but with the rollerblades she goes even better and she enjoys just being able to glide along instead of running. As much of an extrovert as she is, her hobbies are walking in parks and she has a particular love for reading outdoors.

Clover can act on her own is quite airheaded and easily distracted, so she's not the best leader. That role in the trio actually goes to Spade.

Characters with similar vibes in other media would be; Serena from Sailor Moon, Pinkie Pie from My Little Pony: FiM, or Bee from Bee and Puppycat

Spade the Mole

So originally when I started drawing for Sonic OC stuff I just had Clover. I knew I wanted Clover to be part of a trio but I didn't have like specific animals or anything other than like the names, cuz I liked the idea of using card suits to go along with Clover, picked out yet. So credit to @beecreeper who suggested Spade be a mole because you dig with a spade. My brain latched onto that idea so quickly! I immediately pictured her with the big old glasses which are supposed to be tinted to protect her from bright lights. Not sure if that came fully across in the picture but yet. After that I thought about it and she came to me in a vision with like a street wear hip hop aesthetic as a contrast to Clover's pop idle vibes. So yeah, this might have been one of my fastest developed OC's. Not that it's a bad thing. It's just very funny that she spontaneously formed almost fully developed immediately into my brain. And then once developed they demanded to be drawn. So here we are with a trio being pumped out instead of just Clover.

This does mean I don't have as much backstory wise nor characterization for Spade. She's definitely the most reliable of the trio and is the most charismatic. That's why she gets to lead a lot of the decisions. She's very grounded (ha) and at the risk of another pun is great at digging into the real root of an issue. She's the one who keeps the other two on track to figuring out how to go home. Clover is more interested in just having a good time and Diamond really wants to know how and why they ended up in another dimension, but Spades got her eye on the prize. Once she sets out to do something there's very little that can be done to stop her, this does lead to a stubborn streak which can cause some problems for the group but with Diamonds, analytical skills and Clovers go with the flow nature, they can usually find a way around any problem.

As for abilities, she's a power character, she's able to dig very quickly and hit very hard from below. Not to mention magical abilities. Still working on exactly what the magic system is but I think since hers is dance based it could be interesting to have it. Maybe spawn duplicates and then they can rush at enemies or do whatever else needs to be done. I don't know that one's still developing. Other than dancing she can also sing well and play drums and piano.

As mentioned with the magical girl vibes way back, quite a few paragraphs. The girls are proficient at many different genres of music, meaning Spade is proficient at many types of dances as well. Hip hop is just her favorite. I unfortunately can't go into heavy detail when it comes to dance and how to apply it because I am not a dancer! Despite my best efforts with lessons. When I was a teenager I have two left feet. I'm probably going to do more research into the whole thing and she'll develop more from there though. That's the nice thing about researching real life topics it can lead to some interesting things for your OCs later.

Characters with similar vibes in other media would be; Mina from Sailor Moon, Phineas from Phineas and Ferb, or Kim from Kim Possible

Diamond the Dragonfly

In a similar vibe of research, turning into stuff for OCs I think dragonflies are my favorite bug. I actually started learning about them for information on their wings for a different OC which I'll probably get to another day and I started to fall in love with all the interesting little factoids about them. Did you know that per catch dragonflies are per catch probably the most effective hunter in the natural world with a 95% catch rate on prey. Wild!

Diamond wasn't the fastest in all this but she did develop quite quickly. Once I had drawn up Clover who was midsized and Spade who I decided to make smaller and rounder, I decided I wanted a longer character. And since I was looking at like team building and had a speedy character and power character already, I needed somebody for flying. With the name Diamond. I already had the vague idea that I wanted either a bug or a reptile. I was also debating on if I wanted to go for Heart or Diamond for the name since I was pulling from card suits. Diamond ended up winning out because I thought it would be a cooler name for some form of insect character, Heart or some form of the word will end up being Clover's mother's name, and diamond dragonfly just had such good alliteration. Plus they are kind of gem looking so year.

I forget exactly when I decided on the classical/ conductor vibe. It might just be cuz I'm starting to get into wearing vests in real life. But yeah that is the mood with Diamond. Although they can talk but they don't do it often. They're actually super socially anxious and prefer to talk only when they're around the other two girls. Given the put together look that Diamond has she's also sometimes mistaken as the leader of the group, but she will just stare if somebody starts to address her. As such. It's actually quite intimidating which she finds very funny. Once you get to know her though, you can get the vibe of what she's thinking. Even without her saying anything. Her facial expressions can be quite revealing. Her actually talking around folks that aren't super close to her is either a sign that shit just got real or she had a really good one-liner. There is no in between with her.

Like most characters that don't talk, she has a particular pension for a noticing important details that others might miss. She's highly analytical and is the best at strategizing among the girls.

I also think she came from a more well-off family than most back in their dimension. She had access to a lot of different musical instruments and is somewhat known as a prodigy. Like Clover, she didn't have a lot of close friends until the other two came into her life. It's not that people didn't try and befriend her. It's that her social anxiety combined with her super busy schedule, learning many different instruments and magic to go along with it made it hard for her to socialize. The fact that the girls went to school and were able to harmonize easily with her made it so they could speed run becoming buddies.

With the conductors baton, she's also got the most traditional magic wielder vibe in some ways since she uses it like a wand. I'm thinking projectiles might be interesting. Like music shaped notes ones that can go after folks. Other skills would include The flight of course, and she's very precise with her flight. Fun fact, dragonflies can fly backwards, upside,and hover in mid-air, they're just so freaking cool! Along with being able to conduct an orchestra, she also does pretty well as a DJ and can play most instruments, although her favorites are cello, flute, and theremin.

Characters with similar vibes in other media would be; Ferb from Phineas and Ferb, Gromit from Wallace and Gromit, or Snoopy from Peanuts (I didn't mean for hers to mean mostly animal based but the silent but sassy animal companion is such a common trope I'm realizing)

Baby Deuce (0-11 months) ♠️

His favorite food as a baby was rolled omelettes and leftover runny yolk from breakfast (usually huevos rancheros or whatnot)

DISCLAIMER: don't give your baby runny eggs

Because they wanted to save money 99.99% of Deuce's clothes throughout his life have been thrifted

╰He looked like this as a baby:

Toddler Deuce (3-5 years) 🦖

hello fellow mentally ill izzy enjoyers, i've been rewatching episode 2 when i saw this

a spot on izzy's right hand.

computer enhance:

Does that look like a heart? I know on his left hand he has a spade tattoo, so it would make sense. Of course it could also just be a mole or blood, because, y'know, hes been bleeding alot.

Heartslabyul Mafia

So Riddle is known as The Rose-Red Tyrant, but that wasn’t always the case. Before Riddle came in power, his mother was at the head of the family and she was known as The Queen. No one knew of who The Queen was. She could walk by police officers and they would be none the wiser.

When it was time for Riddle to step up, he also took his mother’s name, The Queen. That was, however, before a gang managed to get a mole in Heartslabyul. After that, they were able to plan an attack on Riddle to try and take them down as he didn’t have a chosen heir yet. That attack unfortunately happened in front of Azul, but that’s another story.

Before being killed, the guy who had managed to get all the way to Riddle’s quarters mocked him by claiming ‘Long live the Queen!’ Azul, not being an idiot, was able to put together that Riddle was the infamous Queen no one knew nothing about.

Starting from there, Riddle chose to make himself known to the public and changed his title to The Rose-Red Tyrant, officially cutting off the last of his mother’s legacy.

Trey is Riddle’s right arm. When Riddle is absent, he holds all the power. After Riddle chose him, it wasn’t long before he was put in charge of The Clovers. This team is in charge of interrogation and, while everyone is on the same level, meaning they can interrogate everyone and anyone, only Trey can talk to the big fishes. This means that when someone important from another mafia needs to get in contact or someone becomes a threat to Riddle’s safety, Trey is the one to take care of it and no one else. Riddle wouldn’t trust anyone else to do this job correctly anyway.

Cater, as said in the previous post, holds just as much power as Trey when Riddle is absent. Where Trey is the right arm, Cater is the left. When Riddle came in power, he was already at the head of The Diamonds. This team is in charge of tracking down people, either be it literally by tailing someone or by gathering information on their target any way needed. Because of this, The Diamonds and The Clovers often work together. Cater and Trey, both being the leads of each department, became close, which made it possible for Cater and Riddle to know each other better. Had it not been for Trey, Cater never would have been Riddle’s left arm.

Deuce is one of the newest recruits. Due to his past as Cold one Duke, the leader of a very respected gang, he was scouted by The Diamonds and The Clovers. He was given an offer he couldn’t refuse. Indeed, Riddle himself promised him his mother would be under constant surveillance in case someone decided to do something stupid and hurt her. After that, he was placed in The Spades. They are in charge of taking care of people. It could be by threats, beating someone up, blackmail or… you know. In any case, they are the ones to do the confrontations, the arms of the organisation if you will.

Ace was introduced by his big brother, Chester. His brother was the leader of The Hearts and he gave Ace the opportunity to try out. Riddle wasn’t too sure about the idea, but decided to go with it anyway. Chester was good at his job, so he thought his brother couldn’t be too bad. Right? But he was wrong. Ace has a big problem with authority and he made Riddle pop a few veins either out of stress or anger. Or both. Needless to say that they head-butted a good couple of times, but Chester, Trey and Cater were always there to stop Riddle from tearing Ace a new one. You see, The Hearts are the ones in charge of cleaning up after The Spades, which was one of the major problems for Ace. He didn’t join Heartslabyul to be a maid. He thought that job was bellow himself. But, with time, he learned that his place in the organisation was just as important as any other one. Because of his job, he ended up working alongside Deuce a lot. Again, at the beginning, he was envious. Meaning that he head-butted with Deuce too. But they ended growing on each other. Now, they form a duo known as The Hunting Season. One can barely be seen without the other.

Most of the time? Atsumu's just a guy who acts before he thinks. Doesn't think before he acts. However that saying goes.

What feels good? What's easiest? What does he want?

Those aren't questions he writes down like life's an exam. They're simple urges that guide his actions during a typical day. He’s not a fan of overthinking the details.

He's been doing well enough for himself, so why fix what's not broken?

Unfortunately for Atsumu, there are times when this goes around to bite him in the ass. Covered in flour and three seconds away from screaming, well, he's shaking his fist at his past self again.

He sets the bag down onto the counter and peers in- great. Just what he was hoping for, there's not enough left.

Atsumu kicks the small pile of flour that was making itself comfortable laying on his feet and puts his thinking cap on. He’d wallow for a bit, but it’s too late at night for him to feel frustrated for long. It’s already half gone, slipping through him like a ghost. What's next?

Staring forlornly at the spilt four, he knows he has to throw it out. Sure the floor looks clean, but he hasn't swept in a week or mopped in. Actually, he's not finishing that thought. In too long's good enough.

He quickly sweeps up and takes a wet cloth for the bits that were left. Atsumu didn’t have the energy to chase the stubborn line the spade leaves behind forever. The recipe called for two cups of flour and he knows from just the look of it, there's not enough left. Fuck.

Alright so he needs flour. That's his solution. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with any steps he's willing to take.

Atsumu can feel the flour under his clothes, there isn't a damn way in hell he's going out in public looking like a hot mess. And honestly, it's the middle of the night. The clock above the stove helpfully supplies the time and puts the final nail in the coffin, 4:23AM. Even if there's a place open, it's nowhere near close enough. Not only would their PR manager have a fit if he got caught, he'd get clowned on by everyone until the day he dies for it. His friends and family don’t need that sort of ammo on him, they’ve already got enough as it is.

Atsumu shakes some of the flour out of his hair, if he's lucky one of the college students across the hall should be awake. It's midterm season, if his brother's grumbling over their last call is reliable. He stares mournfully at his apartment’s door. Hopefully the friendly one answers, because he's not looking forward to explaining himself to the one with the death glare.

The one with the death glare opens the door because of course the gods were laughing at Atsumu, of course they were. The words he had prepared die on his throat but thankfully Tall, Dark, and Brooding doesn't give the silence time to become awkward.

“Can I help you?” Grumpy-san asks, attempting to incinerate Atsumu with his eyes alone. Sadly for the poor guy, Osamu's been trying to do the same since the moment he came out of the womb, Atsumu's immune.

“D’you have any flour by chance?” Atsumu asks sheepishly, playing up the charm. He gestures vaguely to the mess on himself, “I kinda had a bit of an accident in the kitchen.”

“I can see,” The man drawls, not giving Atsumu an inch.

“What do you even need it for at,” he glances at his phone, “four-thirty in the morning.”

The Man with Moles glares at him, like he's a ten year old inconveniencing his teacher by asking to use the washroom.

“I'm baking cookies, would ya like some when they're done?” His voice is saccharine and his smile fake. Atsumu hopes his neighbour doesn't take him up on the offer. Who would want to spend more time with a guy that looks like he could make you shit yourself if he tries? So obviously, the hot stranger agrees.

“Are you going to poison them?” He asks Atsumu, and interrupts before he can answer, “Actually no, I don't care. They just better not taste like shit.”

He slams the door in Atsumu's face, which, rude, but gives Atsumu a chance to process what the fuck just happened. Ah well, a few cookies is a small price to pay, maybe he could even weasel a name out of Eye Bags for Days, it’s getting tough to keep coming up with names for him. A small part of him is offended at the lack of trust in his baking skills, but he’s aware of how he looks right now. Atsumu wouldn’t trust a stranger in sweats, knocking at his door at ass-o-clock, asking for flour cause he got it all over himself.

The door opens as abruptly as it closed, and a container of flour finds it way into Atsumu’s hands, damn, Curly Hair works fast. “Don’t come by again for another 10 hours at least. Good night.”

With that he nods a goodbye and Atsumu still feels stuck reeling. His Ma raised him with manners though, even if he deigns to ignore them most of the time, so he chirps a quick, “Thanks! Ya saved my life.”

His gratitude is sincere, his words, less so. It doesn’t matter much as his fellow insomniac’s eyes are bleary with sleep. Glaring must be exhausting. He grumbles something Atsumu can’t pick up, and closes the door, Atsumu takes that as a courteous you’re welcome or anytime, even if he’s not tired enough to actually believe it. The guy should’ve spoken more clearly if he didn’t want people putting words into his mouth.

Still mostly dusted in flour, Atsumu walks back to his place. A little lighter with the container of flour weighing him down, a little nervous to see the man again, a little annoyed at his curt responses. At least he’s interesting, Atsumu can’t stand boring people. He’ll just overlook the guy’s prickliness as sleep deprivation, he’s a kind guy like that.

This sketch is for a snake wyvern emulating moles and caecilians, and would have a flagship role. - YONDREI ILLAVIUS Title - Writhing wyrm Monster class - Snake wyvern Known locales - Can inhabit near any environment Elements/ailments - Confusion, various (depends on materials ingested and regurgitated) Elemental weakness - Ice (3), Water (1), Fire (1), Thunder (0), Dragon (0) Ailment weakness - Poison (3), Paralysis (1), Sleep (1), Blast (1), Stun (1) Yondrei Illavius is a snake wyvern adapted to subterranean movement, and is known to survive in near any environment. The species is easily recognised by the rounded head, spade-like claws and shimmering metallic grey scales. It has no eyes or hindlimbs; Yondre Illavius is devoted to an underground lifestyle and is rarely seen above ground, using receptors embedded in its epidermis to track sound and vibration. The species has a peculiar ecology that is not yet understood by the Guild. Reports indicate complete absence of the species for over a decade at a time, then a sudden explosive surge in activity, with many individuals appearing above ground and consuming all they can. Yondrei Illavius is an adaptable omnivore; it has powerful jaws with multiple pharyngeal components that can easily crush through armour, bone, wood and rock. It can subsist on flora, fungi, even some inorganic materials, though the species tends to prefer meat. They are known to be wasteful eaters, tearing chunks from whatever it encounters and rushing onwards. Why do they rush? Where to? What is the reason behind the long periods of quiet followed by a brief time of ravenous activity? The Guild is still seeking answers to these questions. Nevertheless, Yondrei Illavius are extremely dangerous during these active periods. Humans are considered prey, and field researchers must avoid its attention at any cost. Keep absolutely still if one is in the area; its sensitivity to vibration cannot be underestimated. With their capacity to destabilise environments during these violent periods, targeting myriad prey species or undermining flora, Yondrei Illavius is marked kill on sight by the Guild when possible. Yondrei Illavius excels at combating other monsters thanks to its size, burrowing, and strength. Its jaws and claws are deadly weapons, as is the trident-like tail and its powerful constricting body. Should brute force fail, Yondrei Illavius can regurtitate materials it has consumed while burrowing, enabling a myriad of ailments depending on what it has ingested. It is resilient to harm thanks to the organic-metallic quality of its scales. In addition, the scales catch and refract light dramatically, creating dazzling patterns as it slithers and coils to disorientate vision. This affliction, Confusion, complicates efforts to engage the snake wyvern. Yondrei Illavius is only combated by High/Master Rank hunters (High Rank - 6, Master Rank - 4). Low rank hunters must NOT engage unless as an absolute last resort. Hunters must be well-prepared if they are to challenge an active Yondrei Illavius. Sonic bombs are recommended to disorientate the snake wyvern while it burrows. Traps are not effective against Yondrei Illavius (its metallic scales dispel shock trap charges and it can writhe free of pitfalls). These wyverns can only be slain or repelled. Yondre Illavius is powerful enough to hold its own against apex predators such as Rathalos and Tigrex, though it is not favoured to win these battles. Nevertheless, Yondrei Ilavius is relentless, rarely backing down from any chance to consume another monster unless an easier option presents itself. The only known monster the species genuinely fears, aside from elder dragons, is the neopteran Xerraferrus, which appears whenever Yondrei Illavius become active to prey on the snake wyverns. Analysis of carcasses suggests the Yondrei Illavius documented by the Guild thus far are not yet fully mature. The implications of such are unnerving. - Thank you for reading and take care.
