Hohoho I'm gonna ramble about this one since I don't think I'll get another chance
I wanted to make a story where Tom erases Harry's memory multiple times to the point Harry's mind starts deteriorating and, when Tom realizes, it's already too late. And then Tom suffers for his mistakes <3
I thought of a few prompts where I could implement this idea and one of them was "Follower" where Harry has been at Tom's side since the orphanage. But when Tom started his domination plans, Harry, as a death eater, wondered if helping him to terrorize the Wizarding world was what he truly wanted.
But when Harry decided to leave, Tom used Obliviate to erase that ridiculous idea. Except that, no matter what he does, Harry always ends up choosing to leave. And so Tom keeps erasing his memory. And eventually Harry forgets who Tom is.
But first I had to make Harry's pov where he has no idea what's happening and he thinks he's choosing to leave for the first time (even inviting Tom to leave everything behind and be together) with some subtle hints that said "nope, this is not the first time" like Harry having nightmares, having cloudy eyes, forgetting his age and people's names, etc. And idk it was kinda boring and I wasn't vibing.
I also felt like I didn't have the ability to set the mood of such a dark story. Here are some pages I sketched:
Lambert being a menace and casually looking smug while being proud of his fav good boi follower for out living everyone who wants him gone
(he calls this 'Disrespect from the innocence')
(he gave the skull necklace to Nabre on purpose cus he keeps on receiving quests from the other followers to imprison/sacrifice Nabre when he's been a good boi gathering wood all the time)
👇🏻this is Nabre👇🏻
And yes in my style all the followers are lil goobers✨
just a few drawing of follower Heket! She is just so angry and adorable! And no that is canon that freddy has the red crown. I just replaced the lamb with freddy in this pic lol
Idk ist super adorable that she is so angry and then comes to you to say "I love you" Its just ahhh!
And the angry leshy is because one of my friedns thought Freddy was leshy for some reason!
