Here's an actor AU for the one prompt event for dcmkkaishinevents!

I was super happy the prompt "Unfortunately, he was very handsome," fit almost perfectly with this fic I'd had ideas for before. This is my first dcmk fic so I'm excited!! Unfortunately I was late to posting, since this fic was. bigger than I thought

Oh my god?!!!! This is awesome!! This is great comfort, I love people having to watch over Shinichi’s recklessness. “I’ll make sure to tell you the next time I get stabbed.” Normal things to say to your friend who is worried. The heishin is perfect💕 and they are super cute, I absolutely adore this! Thank you so much!!

Hello @vanroesburg!

I was your @dcmk-exchange Secret Santa! I'm sorry for being late with this, but here's your gift and I hope you like it!

I wanted to go for hurt/comfort with your ideas/prompt but i accidentally hurt my hand so i can't draw sooner and ended up with this instead, i'm sorry :")

the setting is they're in college and roommates! and you can see this as either romantic/platonic relationship!

<under is scrapped pages>

#dcmk #comic #god this is so good #also I am such a fan of your art i cant believe you were the secret Santa!! #this is so so lovely… heiji’s casual tracksuit #the rest of the boys poking at him for mothering shinichi #even tho heiji was entirely correct. why did you get injured again shin #also Shinichi’s hair when he’s drenched is so cute!! you drew it so well thank you so much!! #heishin

[vanroesburg]

So sorry for the delay @knitsweatervests I’m your secret santa for the @dcmk-exchange !! Hope you enjoy these Cat Thoughts for several of the dcmk characters! I really liked researching different cat breeds for them, it was super fun

#dcmk exchange #dcmk #vanroeswork #dcmk au #detective conan #if im being honest i rly thought i had scheduled this post before #to my surprise it was still in my drafts i am so sorry #also sorry for my handwriting

[vanroesburg]

Oooh outsider pov sounds interesting!

You put that you’d love some hurt/comfort with a happy ending, are you still up for it?

Heiji is definitely the best! He’s so best(est) friend coded! Would love to have a Heiji in my life

As for my favorite character, it’s Kaito! With Shinichi/Conan/Heiji a close second. And I like college AU too, just seeing the characters in the same college is nice

I would love that! Angst and whump is great to me but I definitely prefer it with comfort/a happy ending.

I love Kaito too, I have such a sweet spot for the KID-focused movies and episodes. College au for me just falls in line with my preference for anything post-Conan Shinichi, and also some good old slice of life. Also because I like coming up with wild unexpected majors or classes for them haha

#dcmk exchange #asks

[vanroesburg]

It is I again! Your dcmk exchange gift giver!

Happy New Year! May you have a great and fulfilling year ahead!

As for the exchange, I saw your list and you have some ideas/promts, do you have something you really wish to see? Or maybe something outside of your list?

And who is your absolute favorite (I'd burn down the world) character(s)? :D

- dcmk gift giver :>

Hello again! Great to hear from you!

Hm… if it’s something I may not have mentioned, I really like outsider pov things, like friends’ perspectives on a couple’s relationship, or even something like a waiter overhearing weird conversations from the characters. Let me know if that makes any sense lol. Otherwise, any fake dating or college aus are fantastic!

Absolute favorite character is Heiji actually!! He’s my best boy but funnily enough I don’t make enough content about him…

Close second is Shinichi/Conan, I’m nothing if not predictable.

How about you? What are your favorite characters? Favorite tropes/scenarios?

movie redraw again, aka That Injured KID Scene

+ closer to detco style vs a bit of my own style

[ID: Two digital art pieces of Kaitou KID, from detective conan movie 23, Fist of the Blue Sapphire. KID is an indigo-eyed, light-skinned teenager with short spiked brown hair dressed in his Kaitou KID costume. Both images show KID in profile, slumped against a wall and blood on his shoulder and face. He is sweating, a pained smile on his face, with the sunset in the background framing a blurred crane. There is a monocle barely shown on his other eye. End ID.]

[vanroesburg]

a shinichi for painting practice from a while ago

[ID: Kudo Shinichi, a teenager with blue eyes and short brown hair with a cowlick, sits in a wire chair. He is wearing an indigo sweater with beige pants and black sneakers. He has one foot propped up on the chair, an elbow on his knee, and a hand against his cheek. He looks bored. The background is tan, and there are visible brush strokes. End ID.]

the conaning

(im doing movie and episode redraws)

[ID: Three pages of digital sketches from Detective Conan movie 3, movie 19, and episode 11 the Moonlight Sonata Murder case. The sketches are in black and white, very messy, and often still have construction lines. Conan, a small boy with large glasses wearing a suit and bow tie with a cowlick in his hair, is drawn in a variety of expressions, sizes, and poses, from anger and doubt to desperation and smugness. KID, a teenager dressed in a white suit, cape, and top hat, along with Haibara, a girl with bob hair and sharp eyes, also appear sparingly, and there are small comments littered about the pages matching the character poses. End ID.]

Here’s my art for Charlie’s fic I’ll lead the way for the @seasonsinthearchives’s Summer in the Archives Event! Their fic is so so good, Scottish safe house fics are my ultimate weakness, and their exploration of Martin and Jon basically re-learning how to live is so sweet. Big thanks to @jawbonemage for beta-ing! Please check it out!

[ID: A single page comic of Jon and Martin. Jon is an Arab man with long salt and pepper hair, wearing a blue shirt and dotted with scars. Martin is a lighter-skinned fat man with short curly hair with a streak of white through it, wearing a tank top. The first panel shows Martin rubbing his eyes, looking away from the bed, waking up. The second panel shows Martin sitting up, a disgruntled expression on his face. The third and fourth panels show Martin turning to find Jon, and smiling softly. The last panel shows Jon, fast asleep with a slight frown on his face. He is buried in covers, one arm under his head and the other curled into his chest. His hair splays out around him, and his shirt is rucked up from sleep, showing his back. Rays of light from an unshown window cast across several of the panels. End ID.]

“...did you need something, Martin?” Jon asked.

“Oh, uh, no, sorry, I was just wondering if– if you needed anything else? Biscuits, or help transporting anything?” Martin gave another flash of a nervous smile. This was normal behaviour, Martin was behaving normally.

Jon shook his head, but he did pick up the mug of tea, which Martin counted as a win. “No, Martin, all I need is your research on cases #0121102 and #0112905. Thank you very much,” Jon said primly, taking a sip of the tea.

His face promptly scrunched up. His eyebrows knit together, he drew up his nose in disgust, and the twist of his mouth couldn’t be interpreted as anything except utter distaste. God, Jon’s face. This was better than he imagined.

Okay, act normal.

“Oh my god, Jon, is something wrong?! What just happened?” Martin asked, maybe laying the concern on a little thick.

Jon spluttered, confused for a moment before glaring at Martin, “What happened is your bloody tea’s–”

Time to sell it.

“The tea?” Martin said, cutting Jon off quickly. He swiped the mug from Jon’s desk, took a swig and swallowed it. God that was awful. He’d need to wash his mouth out after this. “What’s wrong with it? It tastes fine."

Fic for the @podcastbigbang! It’s pretty much a s1 au where Martin loses his patience and pranks Jon, triggering not only a prank war but also character development. Naturally, they fall in love.

Thank you immensely to the betas that carry my lifeblood, @franzis-frantic-thoughts and @atlas-of-galaxies, this fic would not be the same without you.

Please please check out the work by @pass-the-salt, who was gracious enough to record this nonsense, and @trans-gerry-keay for the absolutely adorable artwork they did for this fic.

here is my piece for @crowsong111′s fic, Caves and Cypress for the @podcastbigbang!! This is SUCH a good fic about Barry and his life before the podcast, and I of course had to try and make the most awesome moment come to life. At least it glows, right? Please check out the fic, it’s great!

[ID: Two versions of the same vertical full-color digital drawing of Barry Bluejeans from The Adventure Zone blowing away three thieves in an alleyway with a spell. The first has a slight radial blur, and the second does not. In the center is Barry, a white human man wearing glasses, a red cloak and traveling clothes, one arm stretched upwards to cast a purple spell. His backpack and a magic circle lie below him, the magic circle producing lines of magic that circle around and up into his palm. His legs are placed apart, and his head is turned upwards to his hand with a ring on it, where purple circles and strands of power are flying from it. It is hard to see his expression, but his eyes are abnormally colored and he looks stern. The purple spell that emanates from Barry’s hand is Circle of Death, pushing out in rings across the whole alleyway, with small particles floating about. Three thieves are being blown away from this spell, one pushed off their feet against the wall to the left, and two towards the viewer, one on the left running away and the other on the right blown upwards, flying towards the viewer. The thief on the left blown into the wall is a human man in a simple white shirt and rolled up pants, with blonde hair pulled into a ponytail. He looks shocked, his legs bent, one hand that used to hold a dagger pinned against the wall next to his head, and the other against his chest. A small open bag of coins lays near his feet, abandoned. The left thief running away is a raven Kenku dressed in orange and yellow clothes, a hood pulled over their head. They are looking out of the corner of their eye at Barry as they run, mouth open and hand splayed in front of their face. The right thief is a dark elf, dressed in armor with wrist gauntlets and several daggers strapped to his leg. He is fully airborne, his legs and arms splayed with feet facing Barry, and his face hidden by his white hair. The alleyway behind them all is brick, washed with tones of brown and green. In circles coming from the center, the brick is a bright light blue. End ID.]

Martin loves his job as a professor of English Literature at UCL. If it wasn't for his pretentious asshole of a colleague Jon Sims. Their already less than cordial working relationship only grows worse when they are forced to share an office. Of course, when Jon needs someone to pretend to be his boyfriend at a literature conference, Martin is the only other person in their department going. A deal with high stakes and unforeseen consequences is struck.

Or: 5 times Jon and Martin hated each other and 1 time they didn't

This is a gift for @vanroesburg for the secret snowflake gift exchange organised by @seasons-in-the-archives I hope you like it!!!!

#I reblogged to the wrong blog I’m fine #this is the love of my life everything I’ve ever wanted it’s incredible #incredible show stopping spectacular never been done before #I owe u my life #jonmartin #tma #fic #hdndkdndkddm I love this so much

[vanroesburg]

here’s my gift for the secret snowflake event for @seasons-in-the-archives! this is for the lovely Vessar, who asked for anything jon related which i was delighted to do! 

i also took inspiration from a convo they had in the discord about an au where jon is a barista who can’t make tea but martin keeps coming back anyway because jon cute.... this is also set in the holidays after they’ve known each other a bit! i hope this matches what you want!

[ID: Three comic pages featuring Jonathan Sims, a British Indian man with wavy salt and pepper hair in a bun with glasses and wearing a button up shirt with an apron and the sleeves rolled up, and Martin Blackwood, a fat white man with short curly hair with freckles and glasses wearing a long sleeved sweater. The comic is in grayscale. 

Page one: A dark-skinned hand, presumable belonging to Jon, sets down a cup on a table. In the next two panels, Martin looks down, then up, with question marks next to his head. The next panel shows the back of Martin’s head, looking at Jon, who with a neutral expression says “Drink it.” Jon has a small holly pin on his apron. The final panel is mostly dialogue, Martin saying: “Wha-”, Jon saying “Tell me what you think. Hurry up, I’m wasting break minutes for this.” Tim, an east Asian man with a grin cuts in, saying “No you’re not~” to which Jon responds “Shut up Tim.” 

Page two: There are three panels in quick succession showing Martin hesitating over the tea, taking a sip, and being pleased by what he tastes. The background in these panels goes from light to dark, the first panel having a dark expression whereas the third has exclamation points over his pleased expression. A picture of Jon, smiling with his head tilted onto one hand and leaning on the table, cuts into the third frame. Martin says “What is it?” and Jon responds “Peppermint tea, we have it for the ‘holidays’.” Jon looks fond, looking presumably at Martin. In the next panel Martin looks considering, saying “It’s not bad, actually?” and is cut off by Jon in the next panel, who is standing at the table he and Martin were seated at, shouting “HAH!” while pointing at Martin before saying “I told you your advice was unnecess-”

Page three: Martin continues in the first panel, saying “It does feel like the sugar is choking me, though.” Martin is smiling, looking at Jon with one eyebrow quirked in the panel. In the next panel, Jon looks like the meme of Jamie Lee Curtis holding a finger up, looking contrite with his mouth shut and a finger held up as a speech bubble says “...” besides him. The next two panels show a simplified version of Jon and Martin at the coffee shop table, where Jon goes from sitting to standing, with “...” over both panels. In the final panel, Jon is saying “That’s just the holiday spirit,” as Martin laughs in response, “Hah!” The two of them are once again seated at the table, Jon with his chin rested on one hand and the other elbow on the table, and Martin with both arms on the table, one holding the teacup and the other holding his arm. They are both smiling and blushing, Jon looking fondly at Martin and Martin laughing with his eyes closed. End ID]

[ID: Two images of a redrawn mock screencap from the video game Hades by Supergiant Games, with the portrait sprite switched out. Instead of Thanatos, Martin is portrayed. Martin is a fat brown skinned mixed man with short curly white hair, brown eyes, and freckles. He is dressed in Thanatos’ clothing: blue hooded draped robes and gloves, a purple skull waistband, golden wings and neck cuff, and a large scythe. There is a text box in the style of the Hades video game next to the sprite, reading “Martin: Death Incarnate." In the background is a darkened and blurred image of the Elysium stage from Hades.

First Image: Martin is looking towards the viewer with a neutral but almost stern expression on his face. The text box reads: “So it’s true. You’re leaving the Institute. You couldn’t even wait long enough to tell me goodbye, Jon?” 

Second Image: Martin is smiling out at the viewer, blushing. The text box reads: “I suppose I am glad to have aided your escape. Mostly, I am glad you won’t be leaving the Institute after all.” End ID.]

here’s my art for  @schmokschmok’s fic Martin K. Blackwood’s Guide to Witches and Their Boundaries for the @tmabigbang! Please check it out the jonmartim is so very cute!

[ID: A digital painting of Martin Blackwood and Tim Stoker from the Podcast the Magnus Archives. The painting is fully coloured, semi-realistic and in landscape format. Tim is featured in profile in the center of the painting. He is depicted as an East Asian man with neatly parted dark hair a few moles on his neck, a simple silver stud earring, and wearing a blue sweatshirt. He also has a cochlear implant attached to his head and back of his left ear. The battery pack is in Bi-Pride-Colours. Tim is sitting at what appears to be Martin's desk, we can see Martin's laptop's locked screen (his profile picture appears to be a highland cow), to which a yellow post-it is stuck. The post-it features purple, cursive writing reading "take care of yourself Martin" and pink printed writing reading "Mah tin" with a lipstick kiss next to it. Tim is looking to his left where Martin is standing. Martin is depicted as a tall, large man with dark brown skin and chestnut coloured hair. He is wearing large round glasses, a cream v-neck sweatshirt and dark trousers. In his right hand, he is carrying a purple mug with the words "Jon Bribe" written on it. The mug is steaming. With his right hand, Martin is pointing at Tim. Behind Martin is a closed door with a wired window pane. In the background a large shelf full of books and a filing cabinet with drawers is visible, as well as another desk carrying more files and books and another steaming cup. /End ID]

here’s my piece for @cadetdru’s fic Unconscious Cassandra for the @tmabigbang! it is a lovely fic with lots of feeling things and even more martin, which is always a plus. please check it out! 

[ID: A digital painting of characters from the podcast the Magnus Archives. The painting is fully coloured, in cartoonish style and in portrait format. It features two panels in the "background" of the painting and a total of five overlapping panels in the foreground. In the background in the top left quarter of the painting, Jon Sims is depicted in profile, smoking a cigarette. He is shown as a South Asian man  with medium brown skin, neatly parted greying dark hair, small glasses with a chain attached to them and a dark purple button-up shirt. The smoke from his cigarette wafts across the entire painting, framing the smaller overlapping panels in a way. The second big background panel, in the bottom half of the painting, features a close-up of Martin Blackwood. He is depicted as a black man with short, dar brown hair and a goatee, wearing a beige jumper and large round glasses. He is looking straight at the viewer with a look of surprise. The overlapping panels have to "read" from top to bottom. In the top right quarter of the painting, three panels show a sequence of close-ups of Jon's eyes. In the first he is looking away, in the second he is looking at the viewer, presumably Martin, and in the third, his pupils are lit up a venomous green and seem to glow. These three narrow but wide panels are surrounded by a curling waft of smoke from background-Jon's cigarette. Towards the mid left of the painting is the next panel, it is irregular in shape and features a heavily scarred Jon stabbing Elias Bouchard / Jonah Magnus in the chest with a large kitchen knife. Jon is wearing a beige button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbows exposing his worm scarred and bloody forearms. Jon is glaring, his eyes are glowing green and his hair is spilling in wild curls down his front. Elias is depicted as a white man with grey hair. He is wearing a green button-up shirt and tapes are attached to his back and head. He is screaming up at the ceiling in pain. The last panel in the bottom right of the painting features Jon and Martin kissing while Martin stabs Jon. Jon is now attached to the same wires as Elias in the previous painting and seems to be suspended from them as Martin is craning his neck to reach Jon's lips. Jon's eyes are squeezed shut in this and Martin is crying. More wafts of smoke from background-Jon's cigarette surround these two panels. /End ID]
