The Silent Protector
Alweyns spend most of their time watching over the world in their invisible form, observing people, taking notes of people's evil deeds. When they are sure that somebody is an incorrigible wrongdoer, they kill them, swiftly and efficiently, to make the world a better place.
(Originally drawn December 2022)

May I offer some humble sketches? Betwixt work work and home work, I don't have a whole lot of time for self-indulgent drawing.
My characters Kendry and Faya in the first pic. Cranky and concerned ~
Mine and @kathea's Tera toons in the second. ❤️

Writing Feedback Asks
Something I've been meaning to implement for a while, if only because I have the pay-it-forward mentality. And also because I know how difficult it can be to get feedback, or sometimes simply a kudos, for your writing.
I do remember what it's like to be a struggling, insecure writer, and I want to tell you: that's okay. There's no shame in being insecure. Writing is a craft that you get better at through practice - and through support from people with a little more experience.
About the Asks
These Asks are primarily geared towards receiving feedback for a small excerpt. I won't do chapters or short stories here. I do intend to open Feedback Commissions on Ko-fi eventually however for anyone in need of more (and who likes my way of working).
There are also no limitations of topic. I have no taboo. You can come at me with basically anything.
There are two kinds of Feedback you can Ask for: Compliment Feedback, or Critical Feedback
(make sure to tell me which one you want! By default, I apply Compliment).
Compliment Asks are praise only. No criticism, no trying to fix anything wrong in the writing. Just a request for a kind eye and a little support by telling you what I like about your writing (there is always something good to find!)
Critical Asks are a request for actual help. Whether you need brainstorming, or can't figure out why your paragraph doesn't work, or want some help rewriting things to sound better/more as you envisioned. Critical asks will first and foremost point out the negatives, and also offer helpful suggestions. What I find good, I will state as well.
About me
Do note that I am only human. Which means that my tone may sometimes sound harsher than intended, that I may not respond immediately due to chronic fatigue,... but I will always get back to you. My only intention is to help. So, be certain you pick the type of Ask that you truly want and need, for both our sakes.
Also, here and elsewhere: always take suggestions with a grain of salt. Ultimately, it is your writing. I can tell you what I think works or not, but you are still in charge of determining whether my opinion works for you or not. The worst you can do is to follow suggestions blindly. Especially with Critical Asks, make sure to take a few days to let the words sink in before determining whether my thoughts/ideas are right for you or not. I don't mind if they're not. I'll still be happy to have helped, since you determining my thoughts are wrong for you also means you better see what is right for you.
If you'd like to get a feel for my own writing level, check the tag Tales from Aeyuu. I'm a self-taught writer who learned how to have a healthy critical eye by spending a few years feedbacking at Project Comment on DeviantArt, which I apply every day I write and edit in order to portray my characters as they want and deserve.
These Asks are also completely open and free and may be done anonymously (but then, make sure you follow me or check my blog to ensure you don't miss my reply!)

Writeblr Intro
Which, no idea how to make one, so do bear with me.
About My Writing
It is very important to note that I write Dark Fantasy and that, therefore, some of my writings may not be for All Audiences. I have legit no taboos. This matters all the more as I have a very basic brain filter and thus cannot tag my posts appropriately beyond 'dark fantasy'.
And my specialty is character-driven stories and explorations of personality in my own original world called Aeyuu. I am obsessed with psychology and emotions, thus my stories revolve around those a lot. And around death. And Death. If you grasp the difference, boy are you gonna like my stories :3;
About my characters
There's a wide array of them, a chunk of them talked about on my website. I tend to drift from one to the next depending on my mood and, often, what series I'm watching/what games I am playing. My brain makes connections like that. It tends to be very inspirational, but also very chaotic.
Some of them have been with me for over two decades, started as roleplay characters, until I had to branch out and took all of them with me into a personal version of their world. These are the characters that forged me and my personality. They also have lives of their own. Lives I don't always condone nor appreciate, but I am merely the writer here.
About me
I'm a 40+ yo trilingual writer hailing from the Kingdom of Belgium, who discovered back in '23 that she's actually autistic. As mentioned, I am obsessed with psychology and emotions and my stories will always revolve around character lives and, sometimes, deaths. I'm also obsessed with Death. There are necromancers. Ponderings on the meaning of life. Y'know. All that deep thought shit that my brain craves and that I therefore put down onto virutal paper because must.
I'm also way friendlier than my stories may make you think, I do like to talk with people, I do like asks and questions and tag games (though sometimes I may be too tired/forget them - probably got a side of ADHD to boot), and there's absolutely nothing you can't throw my way as long as it's respectfully done.
I'll let the rest of my blog speak for me <<

I think I have finally come up with the perfect design for Haga! :D I combined ideas from my own design and the designs made for him by my wonderful friends HaeresisTea and Yone. And this is the result! I'm finally 100% happy with his design! :D
It's the colored version of this older sketch. :)
The amazing Digital Replicant has already used this design in a raffle prize she drew for me. Check it out!

After knowing only this character's last name and instead calling him "diplomat" for 7-8 years, I have now finally come up with his full name! I'm proud of myself. XD
Diplomat's name is now official Direl Laihart, and I already got used to that name, which is a miracle, I think. XD
This was the first time I tried to design the pattern on his robe.
When Direl goes out in public, he wears the luxurious traditional Arhemnian robe to show off his self-importance. But he probably wears something simpler at home, when he is working on his inventions.
Character profile: wix (short version)/toyhouse (long version)

New OC! Well, not new, I created him last year, but is my first time posting about him. xD
Anton is a scholar, researcher and inventor, and secretly an immortal supernatural being (called alweyn). He spends much of his time living as a human, under many fake identities. With this behaviour, he breaks many rules of alweyn society, and he lives in constant fear that other alweyns will find out about his offences and give him the ultimate punishment. Yet, he won’t give up pursuing research because he believes he can bring much good to the world.
He has a strong resentment towards other alweyns and tends to avoid them as much as he can. He's super grumpy and full of himself.
He also has an OC profile on wix (short version) or toyhouse (long version). :3

So Nocturnaliss has made it canon in her story that Soba is attracted to wounded people (both in the injury sense and a figurative sense) and, being the pervert I am, I just had to draw him kissing Ario's bandages (this doesn't canonly happen in the story but she said that he might do it >>)
Soba is a character from Ario's Story by @tales-from-nocturnaliss
And here's a bonus fanart of Triku from the same story

A birthday gift for my friend @yonetee ❤
She got me to read the Amulet of Samarkand and then she asked for fanart of it. :D So I drew the djinn Bartimaeus in his favourite form.
I've never really heard anyone else mention this book (other than Yone), and it's a pity because it's such a great book! I love how both the main characters are arrogant and mostly following their own goals instead of being the cliché perfect heroes who save everyone. XD

Night Intruders in the Kitchen
I wrote this story in 2022. It's still one of my favourite things I have ever written. And it features my favourite character! :D (Haga :)))
Summary: Young noble daughter wants to take revenge on her father.
TW: mentions of domestic violence, mentions of poisoning
================================
When the night had fallen, Lord Deneran’s young daughter snuck out of her room. She tiptoed down the staircase, barefoot, careful not to make any noise. She managed to get all the way down to the castle kitchen without meeting a single soul. The large room was softly illuminated by the moonlight. She didn’t use a lantern to avoid drawing any attention.
She slowly walked through the kitchen, looking around. The tables were piled high with various ingredients and dishes in preparation for tomorrow’s big celebration. Her gaze landed on a large pot on a tall table. The edge of the pot was too high for her to peek into it, so instead she sniffed. It smelled like stew, a highly seasoned one. This was perfect.
She looked around and found a wooden stool that she put next to the table to help her reach into the pot.
She reached for a pouch that was fastened at her waist. She untied it and opened it. Inside was a pile of orange berries which she took out and crushed in her palms above the pot. She wiped her hands on a towel that was lying on the table. She picked up a large cooking spoon that was lying next to the pot and started stirring the–
“What are you doing?”
She screamed and jumped off the stool when she heard a curious voice coming from a dark corner of the kitchen. After she calmed down her breathing, she slowly peeked beyond a corner of the table. She was quite puzzled to find Uncle Haga sitting on the dirty kitchen floor with his back resting against a sack of flour, and a large bowl of dough lying on the ground next to him. He must have been sitting here this whole time, and she just hadn’t noticed him.
She frowned. “What are you doing here?”
He grinned playfully. “I asked first.”
“Hmph.” She slowly returned to her table. “I don’t need to ask what you’re doing. You’re stealing food again. Now I’m sure Pa would love to hear about it. Or rather… hate?” She peeked around the table to assess his reaction.
Haga laughed, his voice showing nothing but genuine amusement as always. “Haha! You’re threatening me?”
“I simply want to present you a deal. You didn’t see me, I didn’t see you.”
He folded his arms. “Now I’m even more curious about what you’re doing here.”
“Nothing anymore. I’m leaving.” She picked up the stool and went to put it back in the original place.
“Then what have you done?” He started to sound rather urgent. With a grunt, he pulled himself to his feet. “Hey! Come back, you squirt, you hear me!”
She walked back towards him. “You wanna know what I did? It doesn’t matter anymore, now that you have seen me, I have to cancel the plan.” She tried to make sure he doesn’t hear her voice trembling.
Haga put his hands on his hips. “Yes, I want to know. Tomorrow is an important banquet so I want to know what you are secretly doing in the kitchen in the middle of the night.”
Her chin began to tremble, but she raised it high and looked defiantly into his eyes.. “H-he hit my mother so I’ll ruin his banquet!” she yelled, throwing her arms around. A tear that she couldn’t stop ran down her cheek.
Uncle Haga’s expression softened, showing worry and surprise. He let his arms fall to his side and leaned down to her. He put a hand on her shoulder and looked her directly in her eyes. “Tell me, little one…” he said quietly. “What did you put in that stew?”
She sobbed and wiped her nose by her hand in a completely unladylike manner. “You know, I read this book in the library…”
“Yeah?” he prompted her to go on.
“I took the book with me for a stroll in the forest and I found this plant…”
He frowned slightly.
“It wasn’t going to kill anyone.”
Uncle Haga sighed and straightened up. “Well I can’t let you do that. Sorry. Even though I might be curious about the chaos that would ensue…” He apparently pondered about it for a moment. “Nah,” he said eventually. “You know, this wouldn’t just hurt Deneran. This would hurt everyone.”
She sobbed. “I knoooow…”
“And you still wanted to do that?” He frowned in disbelief. “Even I wouldn’t do that. Well, maybe when I was your age, I would.” He thought about it for a second. “Yeah, I would. But now I’m… I’m more mature, I guess. I don’t know what went wrong with me.”
She looked up at him with pleading eyes. “You won’t tell Dad, will you?”
He shook his head. “Nah. Don’t worry. You see, I understand what you’re trying to do here. But there’s a better way to go about it.”
He knelt down in front of her, looked into her eyes and whispered, “I’ll let you in on a secret.” He winked.
She sniffed. “What secret?”
“You know, I… I know a trick…”
She stared at him in anticipation.
“You know about the intense headaches your father seems to suffer from?”
She nodded. Her father tends to stay in bed for a few days when that happens.
Uncle Haga continued. “I may know a trick to… cause him to get a headache.”
She frowned. As much as she wanted to take revenge, this seemed… cruel. “What trick is that?” she still asked.
Haga shook his head. “I won’t tell you what it is. But I can use it…” He put a hand on her arm. “I’ll use it to protect you and your mom. If I have the chance.”
She sniffed and folded her arms on her chest. “Why should I believe you? You’re just pulling my leg. You won’t even tell me the trick.”
Haga shrugged. “You don’t have to believe me. Whatever. I’ll still do it.”
He got up with difficulty, using the edge of the table to help himself up.
“Now we gotta decide what to do about this~” He tapped the pot with his knuckles.
She looked down in shame and didn’t answer.
“Well, we need to get rid of it,” he said. “Will you help me carry it to a privy?”
She looked up. “But… won’t they notice it’s gone?”
Haga grinned. “I’ll say I ate it – he’ll believe it, really. I mean, I may have… actually done that before…”
She sniffed. “But he’ll– he’ll–!” She remembered seeing the dark bruise, imperfectly hidden by makeup, that appears around Uncle’s eye when he makes Father angry.
“Don’t worry, I can deal with him,” Haga smiled nonchalantly.
“No! You haven’t done anything!” She had known she would be hurting innocent people by what she was going to do, but now she didn’t like that anymore. Uncle was trying to help her, she didn’t want him to suffer for something she had done!
“Don’t worry, I told you I have a trick. But you mustn’t tell anyone that I told you this. Especially not Deneran.” For the first time tonight, he looked genuinely scared. “I… I’m not sure how he’d react…”
She shook her head. “Don’t worry, I won’t tell a soul. I still think you are pulling my leg though.” Haga nodded towards the large pot. “Now… We need to clean the mess you’ve made.” He took a sad look into the pot. “Too bad. It tasted so good before.”

I have finished the final design of @kim-poce's character Ernestine de Patry! She is the main character of Kim's story Witches Are Meant to Burn.
She is a scholar who is studying ancient languages. She is obsessed with finding the meaning of the word "witch", which has been lost in time in this fantasy world. The story is full of made up proverbs which I find really fascinating! (And you can try to guess their meanings, and have the author tell you if you're right! :D And you can also try to guess the meaning of various mysterious things that happen... which the author may not confirm if it's too much of a spoiler.)

Before I got the alcohol markers, I also got a small set of water-based markers for Christmas so wanted to try them out. I had very limited choice of colors (only 12 markers), but the color palette was surprisingly fitting for Haga so of course I had to draw him. 😀
I’m not happy with the colors but I already put effort into drawing the pose so I decided to put it out there anyway.
His clothing design is based on pictures drawn by my dear friend @haeresis-tea ^^ Here and here
(Haga is my OC)
I can't decide if I like the shaded or the non-shaded version better... (neither is very good imo)

I replaced these with scans because the photos were really bad quality @kim-poce
@kim-poce I spent the whole day trying to design the MC from your story Witches Are Meant To Burn (I'M OBSESSED WITH THIS STORY)
I wasn't really sure how to imagine her based on your short descriptions so I tried various designs… (I assumed you wanted her to wear pants so I didn't even make any design with a skirt.)
Do any of these designs speak to you? If not, I can draw another one if you give me a more detailed description. You can also combine them (eg. clothes from this one and hair from another one…)
I'm sorry for bad picture quality, I don't have a scanner now so I had to take photos…
(I think I haven't made this many drawings in one day in like… well… maybe never.)
