Day 4 : modern day
Oups, double post for Sanji with his angry Ratatouille... But these two fanarts are designed to work together. After drawing the Parkour Sanji, I really wanted to draw entierly his Octopus tattoo.
Sanji lives in Paris, he works for Le Jules Verne (it's on his t-shirt "LJV"), a very expensive and high-standing restaurant situated on the second floor of the Eiffel Tower. During his free time he enjoys doing Parkour on Paris rooftops (and every kind of extreme sports with his bf Zoro -they are adrenaline addict). He lives in a little room where he occasionally has arguments with a hot tempered rat... (Btw, I'm part of the croissant au chocolat team).

been rotating my sadboy hector in my mind like a hot pocket in the microwave for a while, here's a very long random lore dump in no particular order as I write up his backstory:
like gaia, hector doesn't remember much of his past. he's not sure if his name is even his real name, but people tend to accept 'hector wormwood' despite his garlean origin well enough
his memory is spotty and he can't go into detail much, but he can recall his nameday, living in a place with bright blue roofs (terncliff), a white room, and that he had a twin sister who died early in his life. he can't remember his parents or the life he lived before he 'woke up' in the middle of the dravanian hinterlands
he met andromache on the road and joined her group of adventurers (yves and tauvane). the four of them took on odd jobs and hunted down monsters for the clan centurio. he would later be romantically involved with her and have a child (paris)
his third eye is usually hidden behind his bangs, and he doesn't like to talk about it with others. he doesn't know why, but he experiences negative emotions when someone points out his third eye
he's very withdrawn and skittish and is intimidated by others to the point that he'll freeze up if someone tries to take advantage of him. which happens often
he likes horticulture and cooking. when he lived in the west shroud hector had a beautiful garden of flowers, vegetables, and fruits
he doesn't remember how he ended up in eorzea, he just knows that he's running from something
at some point he picked up a rusted sickle to defend himself with, but he's not that good at melee combat
he's extremely short for a garlean, standing at 5'4. yves liked to pat his head and call him 'mouse' despite hector's embarrassment
he doesn't like being around other people, bad things always happens to others whenever he's around, usually death. hector blames 'the shadow' that's been following him for as long as he can remember (the shadow is halmarut without a human vessel, not that hector knows this)
the shadow is something that hector is most afraid of, even though the entity has saved his life countless times. this was halmarut's plan in making hector isolated and totally dependent on them
similar to gaia and her time/darkness skillset, hector has shadow-based abilities a la nier that are seemingly psionic in nature, and deadly to boot. garleans can't manipulate aether, but how hector can be able to apparently summon dark aether is a question even he can't answer. he hates using his powers because of its malevolent nature and will apologize to those he has to fight
he has terrible and horrifying nightmares and hallucinations because of the shadow. sometimes he'll be found on the floor in a ball or crying
besides the shadow, hector is followed by the 'spirit' of his dead sister, she speaks to him at times and hector appears to address no one. this tends to creep people out
andromache and yves can't see the shadow, but they feel an menacing and oppressive presence hovering around hector at times. but paris could actually see the shadow and shared their father's fear of it as a child, especially at night
hector hates the feeling of being stared at, people who tend to stare tend to not have good intentions. he feels like he's being watched 24/7
hector has a near 1:1 counterpart shard on the first that halmarut attempted to possess. the joining was unsuccessful, however, and the shard ended up going mad because his soul was damaged. he was killed by andromache and paris during the events of shb
when halmarut's influence began to overtake him, hector's mental state slowly began to deteriorate when paris was a child. hector began to remember a life he never had and a dream of a burning world. the straw that broke the camel's back came when andromache, who already left him because of his descent into madness, wished to take paris with her and away from hector, leaving him completely alone. the resulting mental breakdown was what halmarut needed to possess him

I love the little scene in "Virtuoso" between Tom and the Doctor.
Neither of them actually outright say that they're (surprisingly) friends, but that's basically what's going on. The Doctor's leaving and Tom's sad to see him go, and the Doctor is surprised that Tom would miss him.
It's just very sweet, but also very silly - because it acknowledges the fact that yeah, their particular weird brand of friendship is to constantly snipe at each other. That's just how they roll.
