[not Amrev/18th century!!]

On this day, 110 years ago, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, thus starting the First World War.

Decided to draw my most favorite wwi oc!!!!! He’s so silly!!

Originally planned to draw him how he looked when he joined the war in 1916, but scrapped it and decided to redraw a drawing I made last year around this time :3

(Beneath is the original drawing I made last year :3)

“R.C.Hermann believes part of his soul was buried in that air crash, the early summer of 1917. Little did he aware of the other side of the world back then.

‘I’ve seen myself emerge from the sea countless times. Perhaps my 17-year-old self had already perished in the fiery explosion of the air craft. What they fought to pull out was merely a corpse.’

The young pilot was captured in France for 5 months, and was released shortly after the war ended.”

This is my oc story. Robert Carl Hermann is one of the protagonists in this epic series. He’s a Austrian-Hungarian young pilot got recruited in 1917, survived from a meteor attack in the last year of WW1. After the war he retrieved his study in Astrophysics in Berlin.

And he’s gay, so happy pride month everybody 🏳️‍🌈

The story title is #Cocoonium, which is the tag I’m using for my posts.

Somewhere in France, 1918

In the safety of the dugout Monty held a small sprig of lavender in his hand. Its sweet aroma was faint, too weak to battle other smells that offended soldiers’ noses in the trenches. But he felt it. And it brought back memories of the field in Provence where he and Henry stargazed in the faraway 1913.

How could they lay so carelessly on these tender flowers and crush them with their bodies? Monty spent the entire way from the town to the lines making sure the sprig in his pocket, which he plucked up near the road, was intact. The thin stem broke in one place and a few flowers fell, but Monty smiled. It had survived, more or less. Haven't they all? A bit broken, altered inwardly and outwardly, but soldiering on. For now.

The delicate lavender seemed foreign here, where any flower brought a smile simply because it made it through dirt, mud, stench, and death. It gave hope. To tell the truth, it seemed foreign even in his hand. Dirt crept into the cracks on his palms, and no soap could wash it away. They were too rough for anything so frail, but Monty was gentle.

Settling down for the night, Monty approached the soft flowers to his face and took a long inhale. The memories that flooded in acted like a torch shining more and more to banish darkness.

Somewhere in Ruitz, Henry was likely preparing to sleep too. Somewhere in Provence, the descendants of the lavender that saw their love rested under the same stars. The stars were the same as five years ago, but the world, and the two lovers, were not.

Fight of Mauzag.

A litle of lore: In the background is the city of Mauzag, which is suffering from an unexpected attack by the Prasesionst. Gretchen and August run to save the wounded Hans. Defending this city will take a lot of soldiers lives.

Continuing the Remembrance Day theme with an oc I haven't formally introduced yet, No. 303!

303 (he/him) is a War Department Hunslet 4-6-0T, also affectionally known by its nickname the "War Office." I'll save most of his lore for when I finally get around to doing his ref sheet but I will offer a few tidbits!

He survives WWI and carries a large, deforming scar across the left side of his face from his service. (He has both eyes, he's just winking haha)

His nose was also broken during the war, leaving it crooked and misshapen. He believes in wearing his scars with pride, but, deep down is still quite self-conscious of his battered face.

He's best friends with Dave and sees him like a mentor and an older brother. He meets Schatzchen post-war and becomes fine friends with him as well.

303 (his only identifier and number) is shared by a real Hunslet (works number No. 1215) who served as his inspiration and, as I take it, is the only remaining "War Office" still running. Schatzi was also inspired by a real Brigadelok: No. 1091 (works number No. 15968) and No. 945 (works number No. 14913)

that's all folks!
