Had a headcanon I wanted to share. Technically this is for a "Modeus and Baul both live and are friends (Modeus) or rivals (Baul) with Dante" AU, but anyway.
-Modeus and Baul both let Patty style their hair. Modeus does it first, because Patty asks (Patty: "You just have so much hair! It's so long and pretty!"), and Baul follows his brother's example. They're both fond of Patty (Baul, grinning: "She's all frills and vinegar."), Baul is just more awkward about it because he's not used to being around kids. Its like having a tiny kitten follow him around, to him. Patty's something small and fragile and also a person and he doesn't really know how to act around human children. He tries to be nice to her, tho, in his own hesitant, fumbling way. Modeus is better with kids.
Anyway, Patty does their hair. Maybe Patty even manages to rope Dante into it, too. There's a lot of frilly ribbons and braids and probably at least one pair of pigtails. I think Modeus could probably teach Patty some other ways to braid long hair, too, since he has so much practice with his own hair.
I- I...
I LOVE THIS!
I absolutely have no words. I just... I LOVE YOUR HEADCANON!

I gib unto thee, dmc anime ep 10 alt ending.
Patty: What happened to them?
Dante: It was a long night, kid.
Side note: Baul is okay, though the cut from Rebellion was deep and was causing him to heal slowly. It is going to leave a scar which is why he has bandages. Modeus spent all night by his bro's side and ended up falling asleep. Tbh, this is the best sleep he's ever gotten. I remember a post saying demons sleep better in groups and it applies here.

Has anybody done a comparison of how Dante, Nero, and Vergil talk in the original Japanese? Like, is Vergil more polite, while Dante and Nero are more informal/rude? I just wanna see how things translate over.
(Would also love if someone did this for Modeus and Baul from the Devil May Cry animated series, but that's more niche, so I don't expect much results.)
Thanks for the ask!
I've never seen it done myself, but I wouldn't be surprised if it had been done.
Looking through some Japanese and English cutscenes for DMC 5, Nico sounds quite different, Nero sounds decently similar I think? Not the exact same obviously, but they have the same vibe.
V sound INCREDIBLY different in each dubs.
Lady sounds quite different.
See what I said for Nero for Dante
Griffon sounds quite different.
Eva's voice is fairly different.
Trish sounds fairly different. (I don't know if I'm imagining it but when talking to V in the Japanese dub she sounds less calm and more emotional)
Urizen doesn't sounds too different, I think?
Vergil's voice sounds pretty different.
Then looking at the anime for Modeus and Baul:
(I found this looking up Japanese dub of the anime, it's a DMC language comparison)
Interesting side note: Some English subtitles for the Japanese version show differently.
Modeus' voice is somewhat different.
Baul is also quite different.

Rewatched Mission 10 of the Devil May Cry anime.
Personal opinion: I don't think Modeus really believes Sparda is still alive. I think he was just saying that for Baul's sake, to try and comfort his brother, let Baul keep his reason for living a little bit longer. And as a way to get Baul to call off on his challenge to Dante- because if Sparda is still alive, then Baul can just go fight him, rather than fighting Dante. Which would just result in Baul waiting for Sparda to come back, which is probably never going to happen, but Modeus probably figured that was better than his brother being dead.

Devil May Cry: Twist: Chapter 18: Contemplate
Two noble demons at his doorstep seeking to join him and his cause.
Dante would have laughed if the very thought weren’t so ridiculous. Or so familiar.
Back when Patty still stayed in the building, there had been another set of twins that had thought to manipulate him, probably Vergil as well.
Baul and Modeus. Students of his father, the great Sparda.
Unlike earlier, the laugh that wanted to build in his throat faded. Back when he first met Modeus, he thought that the demon might have been capable of being a protector of human kind. Baul had been a completely different story.
The moment the struggle with the two had ended, Dante could have sworn he had seen something like regret flash in Modeus’s eyes.
For the first time in years, he had genuinely felt true pain towards half of his bloodline. Granted being half human and half demon had left both him and Vergil torn between their heritages, it had also made it easier to live up to his father’s legacy.
Protector of humankind.
Vergil had laughed at him for sinking so low as to try and help those that he himself wished to rule over. For someone that had wished to rule over the humans, Vergil had done one hell of a job when it came to a certain woman that had managed to temporarily ease the need inside of him.
A religious woman at that, hence the reason why Nero was a living copy of his father. No, not a copy. Physically, maybe, but they both knew that the young half breed was capable of so much more than both his father and uncle.
Ever since taking Nero under his wing, there had been times he regretted it, but the one thing he regretted more than anything was not knowing about him before he reached maturity, or as mature as Nero could get.
Thinking on it, Dante knew all too well that if Vergil had known about his son, there was a good chance that he would have tried to corrupt his son into the same, twisted beliefs he had. As much as he hated to admit it, Dante was glad that Kyrie’s family had taken Nero in when they did.
Even though he didn’t approve of the church’s beliefs, he knew that they had a lot to do with moulding Nero into the man he was today. Granted he still had his easy to anger moments, but with his fiancé at his side, Nero had grown into a man even Dante admired. Not that he’d ever admit it. Not to him at least.

Thoughts of Modeus and Baul from the DMC anime?
To be honest, they didn't leave much of an impression on me. The only thing about them I remembered was 'brothers, reason for living'. And I did enjoy the callback to that in DMC5 with Urizen/"your reason".
Keep in mind, the anime was my first exposure to Devil May Cry, so I knew absolutely no lore or backstory. Therefore, the story of Modeus and Baul didn't really have much significance to me. After I got into the games and knew the most important parts of the lore, I went back to the anime. And wow, Vergil haunts the fuck out of this episode. His lack of presence can be felt throughout the entire show, honestly, so it was interesting to pick that up when I watched it a second time! Because the first time I didn't even know Dante had a brother! lol
I watched the episode just now to refresh my memory on it, and I really can enjoy the narrative parallels a lot better now. It'd be nice if they got more than one episode. There's a lot you could do with "close friends of the protagonists' dead father".
Modeus is Blorbo Material. Look at him with his long hair, sharp eyes, and ridiculous eyelashes. He's got a gentle demeanor and is great with kids! Wasted potential fr.
Tumblr media
I'd like to see more about a devil that rejects the sword, as well.
Baul is less interesting to me tbh, but he could be a really complex and compelling character.
In the end, these twins are a lot like Credo: lots of wasted potential.

Idk if you've seen the Devil May Cry anime (the first one), but if you have:
What do you think V and Vergil (post-DMC5) would think of Modeus and Baul? I know they're minor, anime only characters that didn't get to do much before they got killed off, but still, *grabby hands* there was such Potential there. (DMC2 levels of Potential, I think.)
If you haven't seen the old DMC anime and have no idea who I'm talking about then just ignore this, lol, sorry. I just thought they were Neat, and I really like how you write V (and Vergil, tho I haven't read as many of your fics with him yet). 💜🍰🍓
It's been a while since I watched the anime but I think V/Vergil would be. Second hand embarrassed? A bit sad over their fates? Since Vergil now has the introspection to be like oh hey. Me and Dante were Like That once. Honestly it just amazes me how much the anime drew all these allusions to Dante and Vergil's relationship without even mentioning Vergil once

Modeus is somewhat versed on Gen-Z humor or whatever humor/jokes that Patty, Nero, and Nico find funny while Baul is heccin clueless and only knows medieval jokes.
Modeus tries to explain it but Baul still doesn't get it.

Idea for Modeus' skill set if he'd lived to DMC5:
-Healing. We see demons heal one another in DMC5, and that demon guy Brad from the DMC anime could do it, so why not Modeus? If its just magic, he could probably learn it, right? Its probably more of a "lower class"/subservient demon skill, but still, Modeus could probably learn it. And Lord knows it could be useful.
-Shield/barrier magic. For himself and other people. Again, just support stuff.
-Ammo mods, for single people or the whole group. I keep thinking like Warp Ammo from Mass Effect 3. Just something to give his teammates a boost, if he really doesn't want to fight himself.
-Also kinda wanna give him Nevan, just because a) I doubt she'd be able to tempt him to anything*, and b) it'd be nice for him to have something to make up for his lack of wings.
[*= If Nevan even does that anymore. I doubt it? But it'd be nice to see her growing to like humanity as more than food, thanks to exposure to Dante and Trish. Maybe she, Modeus, and Trish could bond over being reformed demons? They get along because they both like human art and music- at least I assume so, based on Modeus' general vibe and Nevan's sunken opera house- and eat strawberry sundaes together. Its nice. 💜]
For Baul:
-Him and Credo (if he survived past DMC4) could make a good team. They'd need a lot of character development to get past their respective Issues(TM), but still, I think they could make a good team.

My fren... i was just looking at my favorite Modeus fan art when i realized that it was you were the who drew it. The one where he's eating that strawberry sundae Patty promised to make him and she's braiding his hair with Dante taking a nap with his hair all done up by Patty.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH SEROTONIN I GOT WHEN I REALIZED IT CAUSE MY FAVE DMC ARTIST DREW MY FAVORITE CHARACTER!!!!
I love Modi so much. That fanart was one of few to inspire me to create more modeus (and baul) content since there's really none for them. Personally, I thank you my fren.
Oh man that is some OLD art I did, never expected anyone to still remember it JADHKDDJ thank you your words mean a lot :'D

Chapter 1 - First Impressions
AN: This is the first chapter to a story I'm writing with my OC Raven. I'm not sure how often I'll get new chapters up right now. I'm very critical of my own writing and it makes for difficulties writing let alone posting.
Universe: DMC
Warnings: typical sibling rivalry, fluff, and general children being children.
Modeus x child!OC I have plans to make an x reader version, but wanted to post this part first..
Thanks to @milkybonebroth for writing for my prompt request and inadvertently sparking inspiration. Go check them out they write good stuff!
If you have ideas for childhood hijinks (I don't have sibs so not sure what to add in) suggest something and I'll see if I can fit it story wise. If you like what you read please tell me! I like feedback but please be respectful. As much as I want people to read what I write it isn't necessarily the end goal. Also please if you do reblog don't edit or claim as yours.
.:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~:.
“Daddy, where are we going?” asks the small girl as she pulled at the taller man’s large warm hand to get his attention. Modeus looks down at his daughter and smiles softly. He is still surprised at the miracle that brought her into his life. She was the spitting image of her mother, who left him shortly after their daughter was born. Her long onyx locks pulled back into a simple braid and tied at the end with a ribbon of brilliant sea foam green. Today she was wearing dark brown boots with corded laces, dark blue jeans and a shirt of a matching green to her ribbon.
“Birdie, we’re going to visit my friend and his family. He also has children, twins, but they are a bit older than you.” Modeus knelt in front of her and lay his right hand upon the crown of her head. Gently he tucked a stray bit of hair behind her ear with his thumb, and rubbed the faint point of her ear. Giggles erupted from his daughter as she looked at him smiling widely and happily.
“Ok, Daddy.” Then her brows furrowed as she contemplated asking him another question.
“Are you going away because of work?” She pauses here a moment then continues with, “Am I staying with them? Are you gonna be gone long? Are the twins gonna make fun of me?”
Modeus sighs, pulling her into his arms. That last question was new. The young lady that was tutoring her, Rosalia, had mentioned that some of the girls she was sometimes around made fun of her ears.
“Birdie, you’re very special and these boys are also special, much like you. I don’t think they’ll make fun of your ears, but boys can be mean too. Just make sure you speak up for yourself and tell them to stop.” He gave her a final reassuring squeeze and stood. He took her hand once again and led her to the large front door of Paradise Manor, his mentor Sparda’s home.
As they made their way in through the front entrance Modeus could see Eva, Sparda’s wife, already scolding the twins at the foot of a grand staircase. From the looks of things the boys were fighting again. Their clothes are thoroughly rumpled and their hair disheveled. The boys were unaware of his approach so he made sure to step a bit heavier. After all it wouldn’t be good to scare them unnecessarily. He glanced down and saw Birdie copying his change in step.
Eva half turns and smiles at him, her gaze dropping down to his daughter. Eva’s features soften and it seems as if her gaze is a bit longing. Perhaps Eva wishes to have a daughter Modeus wonders. Modeus smiles, filing away the thought to pose to his friends later. Modeus then glances towards the boys. Dante already messing with Vergil’s hair. Vergil turns, smacking his twin’s hand away from his hair, and for good measure pushes him hard enough that he stumbles backwards. As Dante trips and tumbles to the ground, Modeus stifles a chuckle by clearing his throat. Both boys freeze and while Vergil hurriedly rushes back to a more formal posture Dante takes his time getting to his feet.
Eva claps her hands together turning fully to the boys again. “Vergil, Dante, this is Modeus. He’s a friend of your father’s,” her left hand sweeps towards Modeus at the introduction.
“Surely I’m your friend as well, Lady Eva,” Modeus states with a soft smile. He takes her hand and places a light kiss to her wedding ring. His long brown hair slips forward slightly covering one eye as he bows over her hand. This is his way of showing his respect to his mentor. He feels Birdie’s hand slip from his as she ducks behind him, grabbing onto his long black trench coat.
“Lady Eva, truly, thank you for agreeing to watch Birdie for me. I hate to leave her in the care of strangers.”
Eva laughs lightly, waving away the comment. “You mean you hate to leave her behind at all. It’s alright Modeus, really. I would love the chance to have another girl around. I feel a bit outnumbered.” Modeus laughs softly at being called out, eyes shifting slightly away. Eva glances towards the boys as Dante makes a rather loud and fake yawn. Vergil, on the other hand, is trying to look behind Modeus without moving from his spot.
Modeus also sees Vergil’s curiosity and reaches back to place his left hand upon his daughter’s hair, gently pulling her out from behind him. He takes a step towards the twins noticing that her foot falls have returned to her normal soft and quiet steps.
“Go ahead and introduce yourself Birdie.” Modeus watches as his daughter looks at the boys with curiosity, but then drops her eyes back to the ground. Modeus’ brow furrows slightly. His little Birdie isn’t shy, but perhaps the recent teasing has made her a bit self conscious. Modeus sighs at her continued silence, and places a hand on her back to encourage her to take the last step forward.
“This is my daughter Raven.” Modeus turns his warm gaze upon the twins. “She’ll be coming with me when I come to visit with your father.”
Vergil glances to his mother as she smiles and nods in encouragement. Vergil swallows and takes a deep breath determined to prove that at least one of Sparda’s sons had manners. He takes a small step forward and holds out his hand to the younger girl.
“Lady Raven, welcome to our home. Would you like me to show you around?” Raven lifts her gaze to meet his with curiosity clear on her face. He’s momentarily mesmerized by her deep brown eyes. Vergil had thought she looked nothing like her father, but her eyes were just as warm and brown as his. Vergil’s moment of hesitation cost him as Dante jostled his brother out of his way.
“Hey I’m Dante!” he beamed at Raven. “I’m way better at showin’ you ‘round than my brother.” At this point Dante turns slightly to smirk at his twin. “It’ll be more fun with me anyways. I’m not gonna bore you with history or whatever.” Dante lightly punches Vergil’s arm, then turns back to the girl in front of him. “I’ll show you some cool stuff.” Dante boasted. Raven turns her curious gaze toward him and tilts her head to the side.
“What kinda cool stuff?” she asks him her voice soft but clear. Dante stumbles a bit over his words upon hearing her speak.
“W-well I can..” Dante begins but is quickly cut off by Vergil.
Vergil huffs at his twin, turning back toward Raven. He holds his hand out to her again. “Raven you’ll be safe with me. I won’t let anyone hurt you.” That last bit definitely directed at his sibling though Vergil doesn’t look at him.
Raven reaches out with her left hand to take Vergil’s right hand, but hesitates as her eyes flick toward Dante. She quickly reaches out for both boys’ hands and holds them tight. Almost as if she’s afraid they’ll both pull away from her.
Raven smiles at both in turn and says, “How ‘bout you both show me ‘round. I don’t wanna leave either of you behind.” Her smile is infectious and the twins smile back at her. The back of Dante’s ears turning pink meanwhile Vergil’s checks are dusted in an equally pink hue.
“Looks as though Birdie has two protectors now.” Modeus chuckles happily as the three walk away hand in hand. He turns toward Eva.
“Yes I just hope the twins will refrain from fighting while she’s here.” Eva shakes her head and smiles. “Oh Modeus, Sparda said to have you go directly to him. He’s in his study at the moment. Don’t worry, I’ll feed them shortly.” Eva smiles kindly at her husband’s friend.
