For most of my teenage years, Xellos and Filia were not only my Slayers OTP, but THE OTP. I spent a lot of my first years in the fandom shipping them with a passion, writting about them getting together and having kids (a kid, in particular a girl I named Indiga… but that’s a story for another day ^_^U) Nowadays… I still ship them, but not as passionatelly as I did before. It’s like, before I shipped them as “always figthing but secretly wanting to get in each other’s pants” and now it’s more like “from enemies, to allies, to cordial acquaintaces to maaaaybe one day start to develop feelings while accepting the other’s ugly parts of their personalities”
Which is what I wanted to represent in this fanart: Filia knows for a fact that, as a mazoku, he cannot trust Xellos completely, but as long as he behaves in a civilized manner at her home, she will be willing to be civilized herself and treat him to tea from time to time…
Meanwhile, Xellos is amused by the fact that his mere presence puts Filia on edge even though she tries really hard to pretend otherwise XD
The funny anecdote of this fanart: originally I draw Filia’s dress with a frilly top… and while checking for references I suddenly realized that there was no official material that even remotelly sugested that her dress had a frilly top… oups… so I had to improvise and changed the dessing at the last minute while inking ^___^UUUU Luckily it turned out ok
I had a dream last night that Filia was having an argument with Xellos. So Filia was psyching herself up thinking of all the times she had to deal with difficult children while working in the dragon nursery so she says to him:
“I know how to deal with bad boys.”
And Xellos snorts so hard he nearly astral projects into the sun.
