I played A Date with Death by @twoandahalfstudios and Grim/Casper reminded me so much of my OC Ikaku I had to draw him in his outfit
Now I need to make more playthroughs to get all the achievments lmao

TW : Violence, character death, blood, objectification and unwanted sexualisation (nothing happens dw), dysphoria, body mutilation, (self) amputation
"Stay focused."
They still treat him like he's a child. Not that he really blame them, they've been doing that for most of their lives, next to them he's just a rookie. Still, he knows his strengths, knows his weaknesses. He knows what to look for before they attack, when the woods are silent and the air full of static.
His eyes look on the left, the right. He's with two older hunters, Ioan and Bogdan. They've been hunters longer than he's been alive, he knows he can rely on their experience and knowledge. Yet, something doesn't feel right tonight. Even for a hunt, everything is too calm, too silent. Vampires naturally make the living creatures around them run away, the stentch of death noticable to most animals.
The smell is stronger that night.
Left, right, still nothing. Had one of the other groups found a nest, they would've, should've informed the rest of them by now. Feral vampires stay close, hunt as a group and fight for the food later.
A sound, barely noticable hasn't it been for the silence that's envelopping them. Virgil raises his sword in the direction of the sound, eyes locked to the shadows. Ioan looks in the other way, makes sure it's not trying to trap them and strike from the back. Bogdan is silent but his grip is firm, his scared jaw tense. Wait for it to strike first, let them think you're the hunted.
Then show your own fangs.
Barely a sound is heard when it strikes, claws first, towards Ioan. Barely human anymore, probably didn't have a good feast in weeks. Yet it stands, not a sound from its mouth as its left hand is severed, limp on the ground.
It doesn't even bleed anymore.
One strike is all it takes for Bogdan to end its fate. One swift mouvement through the heart of the creature, black ooze covering the blade rather than the crimson blood of a living thing. It doesn't slowly disintegrate into ashes or fade away with grace. No, it just ceases to be, what was its knees touching the ground first. It'll go up in flames once the sun touches its corpse, in just a few dozen of minutes.
Ioan mumbles something, Virgil guesses it's a prayer. For the lost soul maybe, maybe for Bogdan who's using a part of his vest to clean his blade. But the three men all feel something wrong.
"The smell is still here."
He barely speak, barely whispers, but it's enough for the older men to agree in silence. Something not right, something's missing, something's-
There's blood on the grass before Virgil hears anything.
There's blood on his boots. On his coat. On his face.
Warm, crimson blood.
And standing over Ioan's body, a vampire. Tall, silent. Perfectly healthy, short haired and smiling with blood on its gloves.
How did they miss it. How could it hide from them.
Bogdan reacts first, sword flying in the creature's direction. Kill first, before it kills you. You'll grieve once safe.
More blood stains the grass as Bogdan's arms fall on the ground, the sword still gripped tightly in his hands. The man doesn't have any time to scream in pain when the vampire's hand crushes his throat, his cries reduced to a pathetic noise. Yet Virgil sees what he wants to yell in his eyes.
"Run."
But something tells him it's exactly what the vampire wants. For him to run, to be scared. For him to become the pray he pretends to be.
So he stands. Sword in hand, heart beating so loud he almost doesn't hear it speak in a soft spoken voice, too sweet and delicate for its nature and the blood on its hands.
"You're not running sweetheart ?" He wants to vomit, but he stands. Stares at it until it laughs. "Well, that's unusual."
It goes toward him, letting Bogdan's barely conscious form fall to the ground, letting it whine as he's loosing too much blood. He'll die soon.
He'll die too, Virgil realises. That vampire is well fed, its cheeks almost pink with warmth, his form too human. Its well fed, not looking for a meal. Its looking for amusement.
A bloody hand sets itself on Virgil's right cheek, slowly caressing the three scars that sit here. Just a bit closer and Virgil could strike its heart, kill it and avenge his compagnons but-
"One move and I'll rip your jaw apart." Virgil knows it means it. The red eyes in front of him cruel and curious. "You're very pretty... How old are you darling ?" He stays silent, but the feeling of claws in his jaw makes him awnser.
"Twenty."
"My, my, so young and yet so hurt already..." It smiles, a fake cry, an apology that doesn't try to be convincing. "Tell me, what did you think you'd do here ?" It takes the cross that sits around Virgil's neck in its hand, staining it with blood as well. "Hurt some ghouls ? Clean the mess ? Really, a shame."
"We're hunting."
"You're saying this like I'm not hunting too. What, it true ! I hunt for fun. Just like any human could."
It drags its hand lower, its fingers meeting leather strong enough to stop any teeth from piercing it, no matter how sharp, around the boy's neck.
Just a few minutes. The dawn is near. He thinks, at least. It should be.
"You hunters and your idiotic "bite-proof" outfits..." It rolls its eyes and smiles, its fangs shining in the darkness. "Should I tell you where it is not ? I feel quite hungry looking at you."
A shudder pass through Virgil's body, his nausea coming back stronger than before. He knows what it means, sees how it's looking at his chest, his legs, his arms, his hips. Feels the familiar way his body yells to rip everything out, or to rip what's looking at him.
But for now he can only wait to strike.
Maybe the vampire thinks it has already won and that's why it lets Virgil keep his sword, steady in his left hand.
He feels a fangs caress his right hand before he moves, more like a reflex than real though.
Maybe he thinks about something.
A tired smile. Eyes that are just as tired behind glasses.
I can't die yet.
The pain in his hand is burning as black ooze falls on his blade and blood runs from his palm.
It bit his hand.
He pierced its heart.
It laughs, eyes wide, unbelieving. The wound does not close, the silver of the blade burning the creature as if it was the sun.
Virgil rips his shirt and quickly creates a tourniquet above his wrist. His veins turn to ooze under it, the venom stopped where the blood stops flowing.
Barely a second pass.
The vampire launches towards him.
He's covered in black liquid as the vampire's head roll on the ground.
But he cannot rest yet.
He rips another part of his shirt, the leather underneath his only shield as the sun slowly rises. His blade is clean, sharp as always.
Another part of his shirt is ripped, a clean one, and he stuffs it in his mouth. He plants his blade to the ground, and put his arm under where it should cut.
He doesn't have time.
He barely scream behind the gag.
Blood and onze come out of the severed limb.
He has no time.
He gets his sword back. Get the gag out.
The sun is out.
The vampires burn quickly. His limp arm does slowly.
He needs to go home.
He feels the blood on him.
He needs to go home.
He's barely conscious when the day patrol finds him stumbling in the forest.
I need to go home.
He's brought to his father's house. He hears whispers, cries, panic.
I'll be home, Bastien.
It's his only though, as the dark claims him.
He swears, to whoever will hear him.
He'll go back to him.

"The ceaseless Watcher"
I'm currently listening to The Magnus Archives, and the Eye fits so much my oc "Watcher", it's crazy. So of course I had to draw him as an Avatar.

Agathe, my character for an upcoming ttrpg, a blind angel using her music as her weapon (as well as her violin-bow)
Her gameplay will be a lot of fun, and I can't wait to use it, as she's very different from my latest characters

So, tell me, are you happy ?
What do you mean ?
Of all this. Of what happened. Of that. Are you happy.
Yes, it was a beautiful end for me ! And I cannot wait for-
Liar.
Uh ?
You keep lying again and again. To them. To him. To yourself.
I'm not lying, I hate lying.
Even now you keep doing it. Have you ever did something else.
...
Wiped that smile off your face, uh.
Shut up.
You know I'm right.
Shut. Up.
You're not happy. You're never happy. You keep telling yourself that because you hope that one day you'll believe it. That one day you will actually feel something that isn't void. That you wont ever be like me again.
I said shut up.
You're pathetic.
I'm not ! At least I'm someone !
And who will remember you. They'll all hate you. Is that what you want ?
...
You're a fucking waste.
I know.
You should have died last year.
I know.
Maybe you'd had value then.
...
Maybe we'd be remembered, then.
No we wouldn't. We never would.

Is it still "fan"children if they are of your own OCs ?
Most of them are not canon, it was just for fun. A friend drew some and I wanted to get on it so I just decided to take random ships with my characters and draw kids lol
I could probably try to come up with some lore for them, but the only canon ones are the black-haired red-eyed boy and the blue-ish hair pink-ish eyes girl. And even then, it's in stories where there's no risk of their parents dying young lol

[TW : mentionned childbirth, anxiety about being a mom and stuff. Ai belongs to the Allmighty GF, Ether to @noa-de-cajou , Lycarn to @hel-phoenyx and Daphne to @soupedepates ]
"Hey, Agi, how do you feel about becoming a mom ?"
She doesn't need to turn to know her friend is looking at her. She can feel the weak magic emanating from her, the feeling of her eyes on her.
"That's a weird question, Chiho." Agathe laughs, tilting her head. "I'm not courting anyone, much less pregnant."
"You know what I mean ! You're going to end up having a kid, we all do. I'm sure Yusuke would love to marry you later. You can't see how he looks at you, but it's sooooo annoying..."
"I.... I dont like Yusuke that way, you know that. Any boys. And I dont want to think about... Mariage. I'm too young."
"Oh, sorry miss angel~" Chiho laughs, elbowing Agathe who simply chuckles back. "Still a teen in her twenties... What a shame."
"Just because I age slower doesn't mean I'm any less mature than you, idiot." As to ponctuate her point, she sticks out her tongue to her friend, earning another elbow in her arm.
"No, but seriously. When you become a mom, what are you going to do ?"
".... I dont know." A hand goes to her stomach, silently. Chiho stays quiet. "I'm... Not sure if I want or... Can have one."
"What, because of your eyes ?" The silence is enough of an awnser. "C'mon, they're amazing !"
"I can't open them without hurting and... And mutating, Chiho. What if... What if that's a curse because of who my mom is ? To disuade me from doing like her ?"
"That sounds like you're expecting a lot from people who never bothered to come here except to give you up." She shrugs, jumping from the fence she was sitting on to face her friend, even with her eyes closed to the world. "I'm sure if you want kids, Agathe, you'll be the best mom possible. And if you dont, that's fine ! We'll run away together and live our perfect life away from boys and kids !"
"Liar, you know you'd keep coming back for your granny !"
"That's why I didn't say shit about her."
They laugh again, and Chiho takes Agathe's hand to get back to the village.
***
"Say, Agathe, what do you think of children ?"
They've established a campfire for the night, and the cold of the night is starting to be known, even so close to the fire her wings could almost burn. She's not alone, tho, and Ogami is standing in front of her. She doesn't know what he looks like, only feels the vague and shapeless aura of his inherent magic.
"That's a very specific question."
"I'm not planning on asking you to have some with me, if that's what you're worried about." He laughs and she just shakes her head, used to his shenanigans. "But Shira was starting to wonder about her."
"What do you mean ?"
"We're getting older, Agathe. I know you can't see it, but she... She really wants kids. And she wants to have them before being too old for it."
"Well, you're her husband, I-"
"And you're her girlfriend." She can feel his gaze on her, the piercing blue transpercing even her soul. "I know you're afraid of being less important to us because you met us later, Agathe, but you are my friend and she loves you. That's why I'm asking you about that."
"I..." She thinks back to her teens, to the last time she allowed herself to think of kids. Of her kids. "I... I think I would like that. Being... A mom... With you and Shira... But..."
"... You dont have to be afraid for them, Agathe." He stands up and puts his hand on hers, letting her feel the warmth he seems to emperson. "You dont even have to be the one pregnant if that's what scares you."
"But... But what if, because I'm an angel..."
They dont say more. She's young, and they're starting to not be anymore. She'll live for centuries at least. Them one at best.
She doesn't want to see her children die.
***
"Say, angel." The hand on her wings spreads its fingers through the white feathers. They've been groomed just before, while they were in the bath, and Agathe is still so tired from it. "D'you wanna have kids ?"
".... Irène, we're lesbians."
"I know that stupid !" Agathe laughs, letting Irène's other hand lightly hit her forehead. "I meant like.... Getting some guy to knock one of us up, or maybe just. Adopt some kid."
"I can't see you "get some guy to knock you up", to be honest, love... And I dont think it's a good idea for me to get pregnant." They dont mention why. They talked about it more than necessary. She scares her, and she doesn't want to scare her more than now.
"Adoption it is then."
"Wait for us to get married before wanting to tattoo more names on your skin !"
"We dont tattoo our kid's name, they tattoo ours ! You're the one with deereen writings on your skin, you should know !"
"Not that I would know what's on your skin, you scar too well for it to be seen with my hands."
They laugh and share a simple kiss, something they get to have less and less of.
***
"Agathe, can I ask something ? Feel free to decline."
She turns to face her.... Friend ? She's not really sure what she feels for Ai, but she knows she values her. And she must value her just as much to declare her first concubine of the empire, her who destroyed the harem before.
"Well, of course. Can I help you ?"
"It's... A rather complex issue." She doesn't need to see the empress' face to know she's nervous. "You're a.... Demon queen, right ?"
"Apparently, yes."
"Does that mean you can... Change your appearence ?"
There's a silence as Agathe thinks about it. She never tried, didn't even know she was a half demon before a few years ago, when they met... Well. No need to dwell on that. But it is true that direct children of the Aspects of Chaos like her have that ability. But does her angel part cancel it out ?
She's never felt she was anything but a woman, in her almost 120 years of living, maybe that is why she never though about it.
"Mmmh, I can... Certainly try to see if that is the case. But why are you asking ?"
"To be perfectly honest..." She knows her friend's face was getting redder by her voice alone and, to be honest as well, it did amuse her. "I... Need to have children, and I..."
All smiles vanished from Agathe's face, and maybe it was that more than the subtle shift in her wings that alerted the empress and made her speak faster.
"I dont want you to feel obligated to anything, really, you talked to us about your fears and it's just, I though, you know, you're someone I respect a lot and... And if I have children, I'd be glad for them to be yours."
"Ai, I'm... I'll think about it. I swear. But." Agathe took one of Ai's hands in hers. "I dont know if I can even be pregnant, even less... Making someone else be. And you're aware of what being a half demon half angel did to my magic. I dont want that for anyone else, especially not... Not kids."
"I know." Her other hand goes on top of Agathe's trembling ones, a soft smile on her face. "But I have faith."
***
The palace is rushing with life. Their empress is still in her room, still left with only doctors - including her dear wife. None is able to know how things are going, the painful wails of Ai echoing around the hallways.
Next to the room, wings puffed out by the stress, is Agathe. She can see the powerful magics emanating from Ai and the doctors, Ether's chaotic aura staying close to her, and for the first time in her life Agathe wishes she could be able to not see the magic around.
"Agathe you're making me crazy pacing around like that !" Daphne is sitting, silently playing with a doll. A gift for the baby soon to be born, but her gratting voice still betrays her anxiety. "You weren't that worried when Jezebel birthed Hallvard's kid !"
"To be fair, that wasn't her kid, that was being born." Lycarn is standing next to her partner, holding her hand and stopping her from wandering too far by accident. "And not Xingtzao's yells we could hear."
"I know you're stressed too Daphne, your magic is going everywhere."
"That's cheating to be able to see that !"
Agathe laughs, a small chuckle as she squeezes Lycarn's hand harder. It's been hours. She knows Ether has helped give birth before, but was it always so long ? What if it went wrong ? What if, in the end-
The door slams open, and a sweaty but smiling Ether faces her partners and friend. From the room, a small cry is able to be heared, the cry of a newborn.
"Everything's okay now." The adrenaline is still present in Ether's voice, but they dont linger on that as the three women get into the room where the doctors are still going from left to right, attending the empress and her baby.
"Hey." Her voice sounds almost similar to Daphne's, but her joy is just as present in it. "Sorry, tired..."
They understand, leaving Ai her space. But now, Agathe can't help but focus herself on the small, weak magic emanating from the newborn, the princess. Her... Her daughter.
Maybe it's obvious, with the way her head never turns from Ai's direction, but the woman tell her to get closer, and with a soft and slow mouvement, the baby is passed into Agathe's arms.
"She's so small..." Agathe smiles, feeling tears coming to her eyes. "She's... So cute..."
"And perfectly healthy !" Ether puts a hand on Agathe's back slowly, the other, colder one, wiping a tear from their love's cheek.
Agathe simply nods her head, holding her daughter in her arms, tears of joy on her face.

Tell me a fun fact about one of the ocs you don't get to talk about as much as the others! <3
Okay so I'm not talking about the oe or pdg ones then, I have a whole discord with Friends about that universe fudndjdjje even if I'm thinking about another story in that verse I just need to talk lore with someone about it fudjdjdj
I'll talk about my latest baby I think, Yavana !! I'm still a little shy to talk about her since I have to keep a lot of things secret from other players djdndjsjsji but I can say a little funfact !
She's a star elf, a race that is known for being stronger than most other races, but she's very weak physically and is a healer. Star elfs also have an affinity for Ice magic, and she can use some. But that also means her body temperature is naturally VERY low ! That doesn't bother her much, but it can surprise people when the pretty elf who's here to heal puts her hands on them and it's FREEZING fjdndijekej
