A few more days passed before you fully came back to Eddie. In those few days he would follow the routine of waking up, making coffee, checking in, finishing his rounds as quickly as possible before he spent the rest of his night by your side. He’d either bring a book and read it, to himself or out loud to you, or write songs or lyrics in his little book. It brought him a small bit of comfort when he didn’t have your voice to hear.
But it wasn’t till an early morning when he was still drinking his morning coffee and going through the motion, that there was a soft knock on the door. Eddie’s back straightened for a moment before the knock sounded again – a little louder this time. He placed his mug down on the counter before walking the short three steps to open the trailer door. The last person he expected to see on the other side of the small metal door was Chrissy Cunningham. She smiled at him.
“Uh…hi,” Eddie spoke awkwardly as he stared down at her.
“Morning,” Chrissy spoke, her blue eyes brightening more, “I-I wanted to make sure I kept my promise…come and get you if anything happened.”
Eddie’s thoughts went negative the moment her words were able to fully settle into his mind. But would she be smiling if anything bad happened?
“She woke up about twenty minutes ago,” Chrissy continued after he stared down at her with a blank look for a long moment. “Uh…when I left to come and get you, Joyce was looking her over.”
It took about thirty seconds till Eddie moved from the doorway. He quickly grabbed his boots and barely slipped them on before rushing back up toward the main building. He didn’t even wait to see if Chrissy had followed up behind him. The only concern and focus on Eddie’s mind was getting to you.
He rushed down the halls and through the double doors before he finally saw you. Eddie couldn’t explain the feelings moving through him when he saw you propped up on your cot, pillows stacked behind you for support. The bruising along your face faded away from the nasty and brutal blacks and purples and instead faded into the muddy greens and yellows. It was like your body knew that he was near, your eyes connecting with his as he came through the door and a small smile lifting the corner of your lips.
“Sweetheart,” He spoke when he got close enough, caressing your cheek and pressing his forehead to yours. Before pulling back and gently caressing along your cheeks, “Are you ok? Is everything ok?”
Eddie looked between you and Joyce who was still standing off to the side checking over a few things. You let out a soft and gentle chuckle as you reached to hold him closer to you, even with him sitting on the edge of your cot he didn’t feel close enough.
“Everything is looking up, from what we can see.” Joyce started “Bruises and cuts are healing nicely, and her ribs are healing back properly.” Her eyes switched over to you, “And we’re going to listen and actually take it easy so they can continue to heal. The last thing we need is a broken rib puncturing something.”
You nodded your head and held tightly to Eddie’s hand, your fingertips running gently along the back of his palm. “I will take it easy; I promise.”
Joyce gave a knowing look to Eddie, “I’m going to hold you to making sure she keeps still.”
“I’m not taking my eyes off her,” Eddie spoke, “You don’t have to worry about that.”
“Good,” Joyce spoke, “Her concussion, head injury, we wanna keep a close eye on the next few days. Make sure we’re not sleeping too long and staying away from strenuous work.”
“Copy, doctor.” You nodded your head, before smiling at her.
Joyce walked away from the two of you and went to check on another in the medical wing.
Eddie looked down at your joined hands before looking back at you.
“Gave me a scare there, baby,” Eddie spoke softly, his thumb rubbing along the back of your hand.
“I’m sorry,” You whispered, causing Eddie to shake his head quickly. “What happened? Joyce didn’t really know when I asked.”
Eddie sighed, “You got to Steve and me after we’d separated. You found Wendy, from what I understand from her, you killed the man in charge of the militia group. Took a beating, because not long after we’d found you, you dropped in my arms. There was blood…I-I didn’t know what to do other than run back here.”
“I vaguely remember that,”
“You’re actually listening to Joyce this time, gonna be sitting and doing nothing for a long, long time.”
“I can’t just sit and do nothing,” You shook your head, “I have to help in some way.”
“You can go back to working on the farm, still have a little of that to do even with the weather changing. The basement gets flipped to a greenhouse.” Eddie shrugged “But no more raids, no more runs.”
You opened your mouth to argue, but seeing the look on Eddie’s face, you quickly closed it.
“I can’t go through nearly losing you again,” Eddie explained. “I can’t…think you’ve aged me about twenty years.”
“I will sit,” You agreed. “I did like being out in the field. Tending to the chickens, so I guess that won’t be so bad.”
“They are gonna need to help, especially after losing Vicki.”
You cringed “How is Robin?”
“Last I saw her; she was a little better. She would come and see you between shifts when she could.” Eddie paused “Wendy is still down at quarantine.”
“How long have I been out?” You questioned.
“A few days, but…it’s not really to make sure she’s not infected. More so cause Hopper doesn’t know what to do with her.”
“She’s trustworthy,” You argued, sitting up straighter and hissing as you felt a pain shoot up your side.
“I trust you; I do. But the rest of the camp doesn’t know her. She’s just someone from the group that has tried to kill us – and has killed many of us already.”
“I’ll talk to Hopper,” You spoke with determination. “What else are we to do with her?”
“Exile her out.” Eddie shrugged “It’s happened before.”
That caused an angry look to cross over your face, “That’s not happening. I’m not losing her again, I won’t, Eddie.”
“Alright, Alright,” Eddie spoke noticing that you were starting to get upset. He placed a gentle hand on your shoulder to calm you. “We’ll talk to Hopper. I’ve been checking on her, she’s been ok. Been taken care of.”
“Thank you,” You spoke gently, before relaxing back against the pillows. “I want out of here, want to be in our bed.”
“I want you back home too.” Eddie paused in thought, “What do you say to officially move into the trailer with me? I mean, you sleep there mostly, can grab the rest of your things from your room upstairs and you can stay with me.”
You smiled slightly, “You asking me to move in with you, Munson? Make this official?”
He nodded eagerly, “That’s exactly what I’m asking you.”
You held onto his hand for a moment and gently fidgeted with his fingers, before bringing his hand up to your lips, kissing it softly. “I would love to move in with you.”
It only took about another day and a half till you started getting restless in your cot. It wasn’t a hidden secret that you weren’t one to sit and relax for too long. Made you even more anxious than you already were. Halfway through the second day since you woke up, you were throwing off the thick blanket and moving to slip on your shoes.
“Woah! Sweetheart, why don’t you take it easy, ok?” Eddie spoke hurriedly as he rushed to stand at your side, grabbing your arm to either steady you or stop you – you weren’t sure which.
“I’m tired of sitting and lying down.” You whined, moving your hand out of Eddie’s grasp. “I need to walk around, stretch my legs, see something else other than these four walls and the same five faces.”
Eddie sighed heavily, knowing it was pointless to fight you, and instead kept close in case you needed him. The moment he saw a stumble, sway in your steps or any sign you were pushing yourself too much – he was dragging you back to bed.
Your steps were slow, but you walked with a confidence that Eddie couldn’t ignore. With the bindings around your ribs, you were a little stiff but otherwise ok. The two of you walked along the halls together till a sign caught your eye that pointed to an elevator. An elevator you were very familiar with. You started heading that way and clicking the down button before Eddie could stop you.
“Do you really think it’s a good idea to go down there?” He questioned.
“It’s been nearly two weeks since everything at the mall, and no one is letting her out. She needs to see a familiar face, and I need to see that she is truly ok.”
“You don’t trust the Hopper, or anyone else for that matter, would take care of her?”
“It’s not that I don’t trust them. But my mind won’t rest till I see with my own two eyes,” You said at the ding of the elevator sung through the mostly quiet hall, the metal doors opening. “You should understand that feeling, Eddie.”
Eddie hung his head, a few curls calling in front of his face, slipping from the messy updo he’d done earlier. You stepped onto the elevator and pressed the button you knew would take you down to the quarantine level.
“You coming or not, Munson?” You asked.
Eddie only hesitated for a second before stepping onto the elevator with you. The ride down wasn’t long till the two of you stepped off and down the sterile white hallway lined with doors. Your heart jumped a little to your throat as you remembered when you were down here. How scared you were, and you had known people within this camp. When Wendy only had you.
Slowly you walked so you were able to peak into every room through the small window. Most of them were empty, only a few held others inside. You turned to Eddie with a confused look on your face when you came upon the first one.
“Scratched during the raid, just keeping a close eye to make sure it doesn’t turn into a full infection.”
“It’s been nearly two weeks, surely that wouldn’t changed already. You saw how fast that bite moved through Mike’s veins before we took his arm.”
“That’s a direct bite, scratches work differently,” Eddie explained before nodding his head to the other end of the hall. “Come on, she’s down this way.”
Eddie led the way down a few more doors till you came to one near the end of the hall. You hurried your steps a little before coming upon the door and looking through the glass. Wendy was sitting on the small bed that was pushed against the wall with a book in her lap. A small gasp left your lips as you reached a hand up to knock on the glass. Almost instantly, Wendy’s head looked up at you before a while smile spread across her face. Your name passed her lips with excitement before she sprung from the bed and rushed to the door.
“What are you doing down here? How are you down here?” She asked in hurried succession.
“I was tired of sitting in bed all day,” You spoke through the glass.
“I’m so glad to see that you’re ok. I was so worried when you fainted, I-I thought the worst.”
“I’m ok now,” You confirmed, “I’m more worried about you.”
“They are taking care of me. Getting food and water, and the big guy isn’t so scary.”
“Hopper? Yeah, he’s the Chief,” You sighed “I’m going to talk to him, ok? Make sure you get out of here soon.”
“Don’t advocate for me if it’s going to affect you. I don’t want to mess anything up.” Wendy spoke quickly, a pleading look in her eyes.
“You’re not going to mess anything up.” You reached and pressed your palm against the glass. “You’re the last bit of family I have left, and I’m going to make sure you’re out of here.”
Only two chapters left, and then this story comes to an end! Please reblog/like if you enjoyed it helps a lot!
I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. Happy 2024

The Bangtan Gal Chapter 60- Running Man: The Golden Duo
Tumblr media
Chapter Summary: Due to popular demand, Jennie is asked to guest star in a Couples themed Episode of Running Man, bringing Jungkook with her to go up against other groups of two
Words: 6,000+
Genre: One of my favs!! MAJOR Jungkook fluff and things get suggestive at the end with some suggestive Jungkook content!
Author's Note: I wanted to experiment just for shiz and giggles. Hope it didn't disappoint! <3 Lemme know what you think. And thanks again for reading!
-------
All over the K-pop news sites, there had been a poll on who viewers wanted to guest star on Running Man, and surprisingly, Jennie was voted one of the top favorable picks. Viewers were impressed with her athleticism and passion and wanted her back on the show.
Once she was called and asked about being on the show again, she was thrilled and eager to come back. Besides, the Monday Couple wanted revenge on her, so that added to the anticipation.
When told that there would be other guests, competing against each other in pairs due to the episode being a couples themed episode, Jimin and Taehyung quickly suggested that Jungkook should join and be Jennie’s partner.
Naturally, Jen and Jungkook happily agreed, ready to take on the challenge.
‘BTS’ Jennie and Jungkook to guest on an Episode of Running Man’
Running Man announced today through its Instagram that BTS’ Golden Duo, Jennie and Jungkook are currently filming their guest appearance on the show to compete against the Running Man cast and other guest stars in teams.
The article went on to explain that Jessi, 4Minute’s Hyuna and Gayoon, Hayoon and Amber would be joining in the episode to pair with the cast members. Positive reactions were in the comment section for The Golden Duo to be working together again since they made an impact the last time BTS was on the show.
When all the couples were on the set, they were paired out with one another and wore team colors. Jaesuk and Jessi wore green, Haha and Gayoon wore orange, Gary and Song Jihyo wore blue, Sukjin and Hyuna wore purple, Jongkook and Amber wore yellow, Kwangsoo and Hayoon wore brown and JenKook wore red. 
Each couple stood by one another, inside a cozy room. They were told that their first mission was to play the pepero game and whichever couple had the shortest stick, would win the round and be one step closer to winning Korean Beef at the end of filming.
“How many times have we eaten pocky sticks together?” Jen recalled while Jungkook let out a chuckle.
Yeah, they had this in the bag.
This would be the second time they were filmed eating pocky together, bringing back Rookie King vibes. It was going to be interesting how things played out at this time.
The Monday Couple were the first ones to go up. 
“Golden Duo, watch closely because our stick will be the shortest,” Gary warned
“Wow, tough crowd.” Jen chuckled
The Monday Couple were impatient to get their revenge on them for the tag game the last time they were on the show. 
“Don’t get too cocky. We’re dealing with the Golden Duo here. Don’t get them angry. These kids are dangerous.” Jaesuk exclaimed
Jen’s mouth upturned at his statement as everyone watched the Monday Couple munch on their stick at a fast pace. Their noses briefly touched, causing the rest of the couples to giggle. Their lips abruptly touched and the stick fell on the plate, looking around 1.5 cm.
“Golden Duo can’t beat that.” Gary taunted and high fived Song Jihyo.
Jennie and Jungkook glanced at each other and smirked with amusement. It’s best to let their actions do the talking instead of entertaining their comments. They weren’t bothered by the Monday Couple. They’ll still win for sure with a strategy.
Jongkook and Amber were called up next, grabbing a stick. They both were flustered and giggly, trying to take it seriously. Amber couldn’t help but stay still, squinting her eyes, chuckling to herself while Jongkook did all the work. He continued munching forward until the stick fell before he could go further. JenKook took sight of Haha and Gayoon munching on their stick, and they ended up letting their stick be a little bigger than the Monday Couple’s, who were confident in winning because no one had beaten them, yet.
Jungkook took a stick out of the box and met Jen’s gaze.
Tumblr media
“Good ol’ Rookie King.” She mentioned, making them laugh at the memories. 
After they pulled themselves together, she stood in front of him. 
“Go slow and steady,” she advised, getting a nod in response from him.
Jungkook placed the end of the stick in his mouth, leaning down slightly for her to bite the other end of the stick.
“Start!”
They were told and slowly began munching, with their eyes on the stick. Both feeling keen to win and strategic to make sure their stick was the shortest, they ignored any distractions surrounding them which consisted of the Monday Couple playfully trash talking.
Jungkook ended up moving closer to Jennie, cupping her face as the stick got shorter and she slowly tilted her head to the side.
“You ship?” Amber glanced over to Hayoon, off camera.
“I ship,” she confirmed with a giggle.
“I ship too.”
Once their stick dropped on the plate, it was measured as everyone gathered around to see. 
It was announced, “It looks like 0.5 cm.” 
“No!” the Monday couple yelled.
“I ain’t even mad...” Jessi shook her head while Jen high fived Jungkook.
When it was Sukjin and Hyuna’s turn, they were a giggling mess and their stick accidentally broke in half, which made everyone laugh. Jessi and Jaesuk were finally up, going slow and steady. Jaesuk had accidentally dropped the stick, which made Jungkook place out a hand for Jen to slap for a low five, feeling good that they were still in the lead.
“Why is it so long? It should be shorter!” Jessi playfully scolded, causing Jaesuk to laugh nervously when she grabbed ahold of him.
“I-it was an accident!” he tried to explain
“Accident, huh?” she let go of him, narrowing her eyes.
Lastly was Kwangsoo and Hayoon. Jennie giggled at their banter when Hayoon kept covering her face, trying to get serious about the game. She was so adorable as her face became flushed. When they both had the stick in their mouths, everyone began freaking out when they started to munch. After their stick dropped due to Hayoon pulling back when he got closer, their stick was nowhere near close to JenKook’s stick.
“Winners! Jennie and Jungkook, Team Golden Duo!” the staff announced
Jungkook instantly fist pumped and high fived Jennie once again.
“This is unacceptable!” Gary complained.
“We’ll beat them on the next mission.” Song Jihyo reassured.
When they traveled to the next destination, Amber and Jennie had discussed a date when they would be free to hang out and catch up. Both being busy with their respective group comebacks, they managed to find some time to hang out next week. Jen couldn’t wait to hear what F(x) was working on.
For the second mission, each couple stood on a big platform surrounded by water, located in an indoor swimming pool. The mission was simple. All they had to do was push all members of the opposing teams off the platform and be the last team standing.
‘Round 1’
“I have a plan! Let’s all take out the Golden Duo!“ Gary called out.
Wow, again?
“Man, you thirsty! He’s so obsessed with us.” Jennie called him out.
“I agree, they can’t win again,” Kwangsoo added. “Let’s take them out.”
“Geez, what is this? Survivor?” Jennie pondered
“I think they’re just jealous,” Jungkook added.
When the game started, Gayoon had decided to make the first preemptive attack, going after Hyuna. She succeeded in shoving her off the platform as she watched Hyuna fall into the water, giggling. She was clearly unprepared and wiped the wet hair from her face. She’ll get her revenge on her group member in the next round.
Gayoon had tried to push Haha off and they began to try to overpower each other. The other teams had been watching their match and finally got into the game, going after each other. Jongkook effortlessly began shoving people off the platform with his muscular arms.
Cornering Hayoon, Jennie bumped her hip against hers, causing the GFriend member to lose her balance and fall into the pool. 
“Hips for days. Sorry Hayoon, love you.” Jennie waved.
“I’ll remember that!” Hayoon called out.
Due to the slippery water and her shoes, Jennie yelped, about to fall. Jungkook was quick to scoop her up, bridal style in his arms and she held onto him. The sudden action made her stomach flip as she locked eyes with him.
“Careful,” he mentioned with a reassuring smile.
Carrying her, they decided to go after Kwangsoo when he was distracted by trying to push Jaesuk out. Using her feet, Jennie kicked Kwangsoo on his back to make him fall off the platform. The motion caused everyone to start laughing at Kwangsoo and JenKook’s unique teamwork.
“I wasn’t ready!” Kwangsoo yelled, with his guard down.
Getting set down, Jennie watched as the rest of the teams were all up on each other, grabbing and pulling, trying to shove each other off. Sadly, Jen ended up getting pushed off due to Song Jihyo tripping her. 
Swimming back up to the surface, she watched the rest of the match, rooting for Jungkook. When it was down to him and Gary, Jungkook had easily shoved him off the platform to win the round.
“Yes!” Jennie got helped back up on the platform by Jungkook and happily celebrated their victory.
“This cannot happen again!” Gary complained.
For Round 2, Jennie went on a defensive route, surviving with Jungkook as she managed to protect him. She would constantly get in front of him, shoving anyone back who tried to go after him. Jongkook, the tiger, began to get ganged up on, as most of the teams strived to shove him and Amber off the platform. Once they failed to shove Jongkook and Amber off, they went straight after the Golden Duo.
“Oh gosh.” Jennie stood back to back with Jungkook. 
After she took in the sight of what was going on, Jen made her move, grabbing a hold of Hyuna’s manicured hands. Miss Bangtan used her strength to shove her into the pool. Turning her awareness to Kwangsoo, he let out a yell, staring at her in horror. 
“Nope! Nope! Nope!” he ran and jumped off the platform
Meanwhile, Jungkook had worked on pushing Sukjin and Jaesuk off the platform. JenKook regrouped and stood in front of Jongkook and Amber. Jennie and Amber go after each other, clasping their hands together, attempting to push each other off while giggling at each other. Amber slipped on the platform and Jen took advantage by rolling her to fall into the pool. 
Turning to Jongkook, she noticed that Haha was trying to shove him off, ignoring Jungkook and she helped Jungkook up, bringing him to safety. The two managed to shove Haha and Jongkook off and happily high fiving each other.
“How many people have they taken out so far?” Amber laughed.
As the round progressed, Jungkook was shoved out by Song Jihyo. He was annoyed that he had lost but rooted for Jennie to win the game for their team.
Jessi had attempted to push her off the platform. 
“Sorry, hon. You gotta go.” Jessi said but Jen stood her ground and managed to push her off instead with the help of using her feet to trip her.
Distracted from Jessi, Jennie felt a strong push on her back and fell into the pool thanks to Song Jihyo.
“Yes!” Gary happily shouted, applauding her.
"Darn it..." Jennie swam up and Jungkook pulled her into his arms.
"Take that Golden Duo!" Song Jihyo smiled victoriously.
"We told you we'd beat you!" Gary added as the audience laughed at how passionate the Monday Couple was about beating The Golden Duo.
"Don't worry about it. We'll get 'em. Good job," the Golden Maknae reassured Jennie with a smile and gently moved some of her wet hair from her face.
In the end, Song Jihyo won the round for her team.
For the final round, everyone ganged up to take out Jongkook first, creating a big group on top of him. Jennie avoided the chaos with Jungkook and decided to start pushing people off who were near the edge to increase their chances of winning.
Standing in the middle of the platform, Gary and Song Jihyo faced off with the Golden Duo, as they tried to push each other near the edge.
“Jennie! I will get my revenge!” Gary yelled, grabbing a hold of her. "We are going to win this! We are not going to lose! We are not going to lose!” 
Miss Bangtan laughed, evading his attempts to shove her off the pool.
Song Jihyo shrieked when Jungkook easily picked her up over his shoulder and tossed her into the pool. With Jennie, she used her hips to bump Gary off the platform.
“Nothing personal.” Jennie shrugged, feeling victorious despite the Monday Couple’s complaints.
Kwangsoo had crawled away from them, on the platform but ended up getting rolled off by JenKook.
Near the end of the round, it was down to Jennie and Amber. They caught their breaths and stood in the middle of the platform. Going to strike, Amber had tried to trip Jennie, but Miss Bangtan evaded her move. It was a back and forth battle between the two, pushing and pulling each other, near the edge of the platform. In the end, Jennie caught an opening when Amber began to lose her balance on the edge. She then did one final push and watched as Amber fell into the water.
“Yeah!” Jennie cheered and jumped off the platform, landing into Jungkook’s arms. 
He embraced her and spun her around as they celebrated their victory.
“Great job, Jennie! You did it!” He giggled, wiping some of her wet hair from her face.
"Woo! That is what I'm talking about!" she giggled and wrapped her arms around his neck, hugging him tightly.
“ARMY is going to be very happy to see them winning on behalf of BTS.” Jaesuk chuckled.
“They really want this Korean beef,” Jongkook added.
“Why do they always win?” Kwangsoo complained.
"This is not fair!" Gary complained as the audience laughed.
“I think we should just give them the beef. They already won.” Gayoon giggled.
-------
For the last mission, everyone was scattered around a mall, by themselves. Jennie stood near an emergency exit, with her Korean spelled name tag stuck to her shirt.
On the speaker, it was announced that they would need to find their significant other. Once they reunite with their partner, they must team up and find the correct key. After they find the key, they must find the room where the key opens, and find a platform to land on while avoiding getting their tag ripped. If one person gets their tag ripped, the entire couple is eliminated.
“Gosh...really?” Jen cringed at the camera. “That’s...a lot of work.”
Once she heard the buzzer, the game began and she let out a breath. “ARMY, time to find our Golden Maknae.” she gave the camera a thumbs up and started walking with a cameraman following her.
With Gary, he carefully walked around the mall on the second floor. “I must find Jennie or Jungkook. We need to take out the Golden Duo, so they can’t win. Hopefully, I can convince everyone else.”
He was so fixated on making sure the two teenagers lost this time. They won too many battles. It was time to lose for a change.
With Hayoon, she chose to hide in a changing room that was in one of the clothing stores. 
“I’m going to hang in here for a little while,” she spoke on camera.
Back with Jennie, she walked slowly, looking at her surroundings. 
“All right...so far so good...” she mumbled. 
She recognized Gary walking by and immediately leaned against the wall, making sure he passed her, unnoticed. She let out a sigh of relief and quickly left the area to avoid being detected. 
With Haha and Gayoon, who had found each other, they go to each store to find the correct key. They came across three sets of keys, but none were the right ones.
“Found you!” Gary called them out, causing Gayoon to yelp in surprise. “Wait! Wait! I don’t want to fight. Let’s work together.”
“Why should we trust you?” she pointed out.
“I want to get the Golden Duo out, so they won’t win. Don’t you want to get them out too? Let’s work together, find Song Jihyo and take down the maknaes.”
“Well, those maknaes are insane.” Haha started to become convinced.
“Okay, we’ll work with you.” Gayoon agreed and the three of them began walking together around the mall to find keys and search for Jennie or Jungkook.
It looked like JenKook was in trouble if Gary continued to convince other teams to join him to take them out.
With Amber, she walked around, seeking to find her partner. “I have a feeling someone is hiding around here,” she murmured, going inside the store that Hayoon was hiding in.
Hayoon had heard a noise and remained quiet while Amber walked around to see if anyone was hiding. In the end, Amber couldn’t find her and ended up finding a key, but it wasn’t the right one. The rapper continued her hunt for Jongkook by leaving the store and going up the escalator.
Hayoon, still hiding in the dressing room, placed a hand over her heart. “Thank goodness. I don’t want to get my tag ripped anytime soon. Ah...maybe I should go find Kwangsoo. But I’m so scared. What should I do?”
With the Golden Maknae, he kept a low profile as he went to find keys. 
“Ah...I wish Jennie was here with me, right now. They are doing well to keep us apart. But I will find her. And we’ll win for sure.” he said to the camera, determined.
“Hey!” the sound of Jessi’s voice, caused him to look Jungshooked. 
He immediately began backing up while she walked after him. He ended up giggling at her as she tried to grab onto him to rip his tag off. His strength overpowered her attempts and he escaped. Jessi tried to run after him, but he was too fast and she stopped running. 
“I don’t know why I even tried.” she shrugged on camera, chuckling as the audience laughed.
Back to Jennie as she unsuccessfully discovered the right key in a shoe store, she came across the row of Nike sneakers. 
“Daaaaaamnnnnn, how much are these?” she exclaimed in English and picked up one of the shoes to check them out. “Yo...I need to get this after the show.”
Distracted, she was unaware that Hyuna and Sukjin had spotted her. Hearing footsteps, Jennie quickly set the shoe down and ran out of the store, with them high on her tail.
“Jennie!” Hyuna laughed and grabbed a hold of her.
“This is so cheap. You gonna run up on me when I was looking at Nike shoes? Really?” she evaded her attempts to grab her tag, defending herself against them both.
“Let us oust you, Miss Bangtan. We need to win this.” Sukjin responded.
“Sorry, but I didn’t come here to lose. I appreciate your determination. Not enough to take me out. Jungkook and I are going to win this.” she managed to push them away and escape. 
She ended up losing them, and she hid in another store to catch her breath, hiding behind the register. 
That was too close.
“Ah...I hate this. I want Jungkook. The heck, is he?” she complained.
Turning her head, she found another small box and opened it to find a key. Examining it, she realized that it was not the right key and placed it back. She abruptly heard Hyuna and Sukjin yelling in panic and loudly running past the store she was hiding in. She realized that Jongkook had found them and started chasing after them.
“So glad I’m not them right now,” she murmured.
As the game progressed, Gary managed to find Song Jihyo with Haha and Gayoon, discussing strategy when they found Jen or Jungkook to eliminate them. Unfortunately for them, they had bumped into Jongkook who had been chasing after Hyuna and Sukjin. The two teams instantly run with Hyuna and Sukjin, yelling and screaming all over the place. 
Hyuna got in an elevator but unluckily none of the others made it inside with her. When the door opened on the next floor, she saw the Golden Maknae quickly looking up from his feet, widening his eyes.
“Oh no!” she shrieked as he rushed in, grabbing a hold of her. “Wait, wait, please! The game just started!” she pleaded but unfortunately for her, he ripped her tag off to eliminate her and Sukjin from the game.
“Sorry, Noona.” Jungkook bowed and grinned.
‘Hyuna out. Hyuna out.’
Back to Hayoon, she still was hiding in her hiding spot. When she heard the announcement, she sighed out of relief when it wasn’t her partner. Out of nowhere, she shrieked when she suddenly saw the dressing room door swing open, locking eyes with her best friend, Jennie.
“Really?” Jennie laughed and took a seat next to her.
“Aw...it was nice when it lasted.” Hayoon pouted.
“Have you seen Jungkook?”
“I heard him in here a while ago. I have no idea where he went. Thankfully he didn’t find me.” 
“Thanks. Okay. See you.” she stood up.
“W-wait, you’re sparing me?”
“Yeah.” Jen nodded. “I love you, that’s why.”
Hayoon smiled at her answer and felt a little flustered.
“Just try not to get caught," Miss Bangtan warned. "And if we meet again, I won’t hesitate to take the tag off.”
“Gosh...you and Jungkook are so scary when competitive. Reminds me of our dodgeball game at school.”
“That’s riiiiight.” she kissed her forehead. “Be safe out there.”
“You too!” Hayoon watched her leave. 
Standing up, she decided it was time to move around and find Kwangsoo and some keys. No more getting scared. It was time to play the game.
As the game went on, Amber and Jongkook had found each other and were running after the rest of the teams that were plotting to find Jennie and Jungkook.
“Run faster! Run faster! They’re here! They’re coming!” Haha yelled.
“Ah...we are in deep trouble!” Jaesuk huffed
“This was not part of the plan! Work with us to take out the Golden Duo!” Gary pleaded.
Jungkook had found himself in the mix when Song Jihyo spotted him and started running after him. Now it was Gary, Song Jihyo, Haha, Gayoon, Jessi, and Jaesuk running after Jungkook while running away from Amber and Jongkook.
“Get Jungkook! One team has to sacrifice themselves so we can oust Jungkook!” Jaesuk shouted.
“Go! Go! Go! We’re losing him!” Gary yelled, determinedly.
Out of breath, Jungkook came to a stop and had to fend for himself desperately as he saw the three teams halt in front of him. The three teams were distracted because they wanted to focus on Jungkook but Jongkook and Amber were behind them and they weren’t sure what to do.
Out of nowhere, Jennie jumped into the fray, grabbing a hold of Jungkook from behind. He widened his eyes in surprise when he turned to see her, gesturing for him to run with her. Everyone noticed that Jennie and Jungkook were finally reunited and freaked out.
“No! This was not supposed to happen!” Gary whined as all the teams scattered to go after them and escape Jongkook and Amber.
“Ah! Separate them!” Haha shouted.
“They’re headed downstairs! Go down!” Jessi yelled.
Song Jihyo managed to grab a hold of Jungkook’s arm, which made Jennie get pulled back with him.
“Uh, uh, not today! Kook and I will live to see another day! Get off of him!” Jen made her lose her grip before running away with her Golden partner.
“Aish...these kids...they’re too fast,” Jaesuk called out.
“We are dealing with two pains in the asses here.” Jessi chuckled, shaking her head. “These kids need to go but they run so fast. So how are we going to beat them?”
Once Jennie and Jungkook found a safe area to hide, he wrapped his arms around her tightly for a hug.
“Are you all right?” she asked.
“I am just very happy to see you, right now.”
“Feeling is mutual. I really thought I wasn’t going to be able to make it. Catch your breath, I know you’re tired.”
They sat on the floor as he tilted his head back, making it rest on the wall. Jennie laid her head on his shoulder and rested with him while keeping her eyes and ears alert for anyone walking by. 
Finally, they found each other and can work on winning.
After resting for a while, they walked around the mall to find the keys. As they strolled down the hallway, they heard a loud noise behind them. Jungkook was quick to grab her to safety by wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her against his chest. He looked both ways to see if anyone was there.
“That scared the crap outta me,” Jen said in English, exhaling sharply with a hand on her chest when they noticed that one of the camera crew had knocked over a plant by accident.
“What are we going to do? Everyone is after us. Should we go stealth?” Jungkook suggested as they continued their search for keys.
“No, I don’t think we should do stealth this time.”
“Really?”
“Yeah because they aren’t focused on getting the key, they’re focused on getting us out. They’re gonna do anything to eliminate us. They’ll try to corner us, distract us, this, that, and the third. We need to be quick and on full offense. No more messing around. We gotta win this. So, let’s find this key and if anybody runs up on us, we’ll rip the tags off. No more running away. I won’t let anyone rip your tag off. I promise.” she reassured him, placing a hand on his shoulder. “I got you, Jungkook.”
A bunny smile appeared on the Golden Maknae’s lips, motivated by her words. “I got you, first. Now let’s go.”
As time went on, the Golden Duo searched around, undetected, and managed to find the right key. All they had to do now was find the room to open the door and stand on the platform. 
Walking to the door that leads to the stairwell, Jennie opened it and walked in with Jungkook, only to spot Jaesuk, Jessi, Kwangsoo and Hayoon, Gary and Song Jihyo trying to get each other’s tags after they all had turned against each other.
The sight of JenKook caused Kwangsoo and Hayoon to rush down the stairs in panic while the rest of the teams were caught off guard and ran down the steps to avoid them. JenKook had decided to dash after them, going after the Monday Couple first for revenge. 
Running through a door, the Monday Couple had pushed to close it shut, only to have JenKook push forward to push it open.
“No! It won’t end like this!” Gary yelled.
“Don’t let them in!” Song Jihyo shouted.
Jennie, using her strength, gripped the doorknob and placed her foot on the wall, slowly pulling it back as the door gradually opened. Jungkook took advantage by grabbing Song Jihyo’s arm. He pulled her to him and used his other hand to search for the name tag on her back.
Riiiiiiiip
‘Song Jihyo out. Song Jihyo out.’
“Ah...I can’t believe this.” Song Jihyo slid down and sighed in defeat with Gary. 
After bowing and thanking the Monday Couple, Jennie and Jungkook continued their search for the platform.
“Are you okay?” Gary helped Song Jihyo up.
“Wow...the Golden Duo is no joke,” she mentioned, bewildered.
“They have to be the strongest guests we ever had. Iron Man and Captain America strength. This won’t be the end. We will get them next time.”
Near the end of the game, Jennie and Jungkook finally found the door. Managing to open it with no problems, they quickly jumped onto the platform as confetti popped out from the ceiling, making them the winners of the game.
All the teams had met up in the room to recap on the episode and congratulated JenKook on their successful win despite the odds not being in their favor.
Receiving Korean Beef as their prize, Jungkook happily announced, “We’ll eat this proudly. Jin Hyung, prepare to make this for us when we get home!”
“Ahhhh, they came to our show and won everything. They cannot be beaten.” Haha shook his head as everyone laughed
Once Jennie and Jungkook went back to the dorms with Seijin, the members greeted them with loud cheers when they saw the Korean beef in their hands. 
A victory dance commenced between the members and afterward, Jennie showered and helped Jin cook the beef. 
After dinner, Jennie chose to turn in early due to the full meal and long day of filming. Wearing a white tank top with black shorts, she dozed off in her warm bed.
-------
Buzz Buzz Buzz
Stirring in her sleep, Jen slowly woke up and grabbed her phone off the nightstand. Squinting her eyes at the high brightness of the screen, she turned her brightness down and checked out the message.
Kookie: You awake? I have a headache. Could you massage it away?
Jen: Sure. Drink water and then stop by
She sat up and stretched her limbs. Turning on the lamp, she turned to look at the time. It was past 1am. It looked like Jungkook was done gaming for the night with the rest of the Maknae Line. 
Noticing that her bun was messy, she realized that her bonnet had fallen off while sleeping. Yawning, she took out her bun and shook her hair out, deciding to fix it after massaging Jungkook. 
Hearing a firm series of knocks on her door, she called out with her voice filled with sleep, “Who?”
“Golden Maknae in need of Miss Bangtan’s famous massages.”
His bright voice made her smile. “How much are you paying?”
“I’m sure we can negotiate with smarties.” he quipped, making her giggle softly.
“You got me there. Enter my realm.”
She watched him walk in with a big smile as he closed the door. She noticed he was wearing one of his many white shirts and a pair of shorts that came to his knees. His hair was messy, too, it made him look even cuter.
She scooted over as she felt the bed dip when he got on the bed to lay down next to her. 
“I told you don’t eat so much candy. But what do you do? Eat a lot of candy. Now, look at you. Suffering from a headache.” she scolded.
“The candy Hyung buys is really good. I can’t help it.”
“I can’t help it.” she mocked in a low voice, making him chuckle. “How much did you even eat after dinner?” she let him lay his head on her lap as she gently began to massage his temples.
“You don’t want to know.” he let out a content sigh, closing his eyes.
“No more eating a lot of sweets, especially before you go to sleep. Those sugar headaches are killer. And make sure you drink more water and take aspirin."
“Yes, ma’am.”
“You’re a handful.”
After a while, he ended up falling asleep, with his headache nearly gone. She gently removed his head from her lap and let him sleep next to her. Moments later, Jen decided to play on her phone, to pass the time until she felt herself getting tired.
After ten minutes, she glanced over at the Golden Maknae, watching him sleep as his chest rose and fell slowly. Placing her phone on the nightstand, she turned to her side, to continue observing him. Her hand slowly ran through his soft hair. Gently brushing her fingertips against his cheek, she absentmindedly ran her thumb over his bottom lip. Glancing at his lips, she quickly shook the thought away and removed her hand.
‘The heck was that Jen?’ she looked away from his lips but couldn’t help but look back at them.
Jungkook had grown up. His vocals get better and better throughout each comeback. He had gotten so much taller, it was like it was yesterday when they were almost the same height. His English skills improve day by day, making her proud of his efforts. And he had become so handsome over the years.
Her body began moving on its own as she found herself slowly leaning down. She stopped midway, looking at his gentle face. Closing her eyes with hesitation, she pulled back. 
Jen laid on her back and looked up at the ceiling, inhaling and exhaling deeply. She didn’t understand what she was doing. What this strange feeling was. 
Turning her head to the side, she looked at him, falteringly.
After a moment, she turned her body on her side and leaned forward to press her lips to his. She kissed him softly while closing her eyes. His lips were softer than she anticipated, taking her off guard. Nonetheless, she felt something strong from the kiss. 
When she realized what she had done, she pulled away, confused by her abrupt actions. 
‘What the hell, Jennie? Why did you do that? Stupid, stupid, stupid. I am such an idiot.’ she thought to herself, touching her lips.
She was so fixated on thinking of what she had done, that she didn’t even notice Jungkook slowly opening his eyes.
Tumblr media
Consequently, he knew exactly what she had done and when she met his gaze, her stomach dropped.
Busted.
She stiffened, widening her eyes while her face felt flushed. All she wanted to do was crawl into a hole. She had no excuse for her actions and couldn’t even think of coherent thoughts without making a fool out of herself.
“...u-um-I’m...” she hesitated, averting her eyes from him. “I-I’m sorry, I don’t know what got into me. I think I’m gonna go get something from the kitchen.”
She began scrambling to get out of bed but felt his warm hand, firmly grabbing her wrist to stop her from getting off the mattress.
“Don’t leave,” he whispered.
Tumblr media
Jen let out a sharp gasp when he gently pushed her down on the bed, feeling the soft, warm sheets under her. Her heart raced quickly as she watched him slowly climb on top of her, placing his palms on the bed, next to both sides of her head.
She couldn’t look at him in the eyes as she felt a mixture of crazy emotions while still feeling awkward by her previous actions.
“Look at me,” her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of his low voice. 
She nervously held his gaze, unable to ignore his request. She didn’t understand where this sudden desire to kiss him was coming from and it bothered her.
It bothered her because she shouldn’t even be in this foreign position with him.
It bothered her because the way he was staring at her made it harder to resist him.
It bothered her because he looked so enticing and she anticipated what he was going to do to her.
Her chest rose up and down with the butterflies in her stomach getting worse. She watched him take a good look at the position they were in. 
From his face, it seemed like he was contemplating if he should risk it all. It was like he was struggling to suppress the urge to do whatever his mind was thinking of doing to her. She regarded that he had licked his lips and placed his bottom lip in between his teeth as his eyes traveled down to her bare, thick legs. When he locked eyes with her, she felt her nervousness intensify.
He slowly leaned down, pressing his body against hers, gently kissing her softly. She froze, widening her eyes as she felt his lips move on hers while he tilted his head to continue kissing her slowly.
‘What the hell? What the hell are we doing? What the hell are we doing?’ she thought in panic.
His lips were tender and he pulled away briefly, leaving her breathless. Jungkook moved some hair from her face before leaning down to crash his lips against hers again.
Part of her wanted to push him off.
Tell him that this should not be happening.
But his kisses were too much to handle and she found herself kissing back, uncertain. She wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him closer. Gradually, she became in sync with his lips, finding a rhythm, despite her lack of kiss experience.
With a hand in his soft hair, she ran her fingers through it. Shortly after she felt his large hands caressing her legs and she hitched a breath. 
Jungkook’s hands were all over her. Places that a friend shouldn’t be touching but he was so gentle that she couldn’t help but melt into his touch. They slowly eased back from their lingering kiss to catch their breaths. 
Jennie, unable to resist and giving in to this heated encounter, sat up with him to straddle him on his lap. The sudden gesture made him grunt softly as she gripped onto his shirt. 
The way he looked at her looked like he was giving her permission to do whatever she wanted. Sensing her hesitation, he ended up guiding her hands to remove his shirt before tossing it to the side.
'Oh my God...' she thought as she ran her hands down his chest and then took his face in her hands. 'What's gotten into me?'
Tumblr media
She resumed kissing him again as she felt warm and tingly. Each kiss felt better than the last one, making her feel good. Their kissing got heated as he slowly ran his hands down her back and squeezed her hips. He was starting to drive her crazy as he continued his frisky behavior when his hands slowly traveled down to squeeze her rear. The sudden gesture made her jump and let out a squeal of surprise before resuming their heated kissing.
Once they pulled back to breathe again, a thought in her mind made her place a hand on his chest, as the doubts came back.
‘We shouldn’t be doing this...I should not have kissed him. This isn’t right. But it feels right. But friends don’t do this. We need to stop. This can’t go any further. I need to get out of this.’ she thought, feeling conflicted with everything that was going on.
Jungkook noticed her pulling away and closed the gap by pulling her back against his body.
"Don't. It's okay," he murmured and swiftly laid her back on the bed, climbing on top of her to kiss her again.
Jungkook made her forget about the doubts as he deepened the kiss, causing her to softly moan. It made her feel embarrassed that an abrupt sound like that came out of her since she never made a sound like that before. She felt his strong hands grab her wrists, pinning them on the bed, beside her head. His hands gradually slid up to her hands slowly intertwining his fingers with hers. He kept a firm grip, making her unable to escape his passion.
Jungkook took his time, placing sweet kisses on her face. From her cheeks to her jawline, he made her feel wanted and cared for. He needed to stop kissing her like this. Every time he kissed her sweetly, he would glance at her lovingly before doing it again. His kisses were making her heart pound. She couldn’t take much more of this.
Turning her head to one side, she closed her eyes and let out shaky breaths when she felt him shift down to her neck. His nose nuzzled against her neck before placing, soft and gentle kisses around it, leaving her panting from the foreign feeling.
‘Oh God...why am I enjoying this?’ she thought as she threw her head back against the pillow.
She tightened her hands against his, writhing underneath him while trying to fight back any sounds. Of course, with Jungkook pinning her down to the bed, focused on her neck, she failed miserably, becoming undone. Jungkook appeared to be satisfied with his efforts and her reactions because he let out a low chuckle in response.
“Jungkook,” she whispered breathlessly as she felt his warm breath against her ear.
“Relax, baby girl...” he whispered, feeling her squirm from all the overwhelming and foreign feelings in her body.
This was torture, what he was doing to her, and she couldn’t do anything as he held her down.
"Do you trust me?" she heard him ask in her ear, making her shiver. 
"Y-yes," she breathed out. 
Suddenly he let her go and began kissing down her neck and started to move lower, making her feel flushed
"W-wait...where are you going?" she stuttered with her breathing increasing as she placed her hands in his hair when he continued to travel down to her stomach. 
Never would she think that Jungkook would ever do this, especially to her.
----
Jennie ended up falling off her bed with a big thump. She quickly got back to her feet. Snapping her head from side to side, looking around, she noticed that no one was in her room but her.
“What the hell...?” she placed a hand on her hair, which was still in a bun, and checked her phone to see no messages from Jungkook that indicated that he needed a massage tonight.
She then realized that she was just dreaming.
“Oh no. Oh my gosh, please. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.” she started pacing around, in panic. “No. No. No.” she shook her head repeatedly, trying to get the thoughts out of her mind.
It startled her that she just dreamed about her friend this way. 
“That meant nothing. That had to mean nothing.” she tried to convince herself. “No way. No way this would happen. Why did I dream of that? Why? Am I drunk? Did I eat one too many Smarties? Get it together!”
She slapped her cheeks with her palms. Going into her small bathroom, she splashed her face with cold water and sat on top of the toilet seat, to collect her thoughts.
That imagination...came out of nowhere.
Jungkook would never think of this, would he?
He would never think of her like this, right?
So why did she think of him like that?
He probably never dreamed of her like that, either, so why did she?
He would never think about making out with her, would he?
She was so confused.
Friends don’t just make out with each other like they did in that dream and she shouldn’t be having these types of thoughts of him.
“This is wrong. We can’t...we’re friends.” she reminded herself. “Best friends. In a group. We are in a group, working together. Professionally. This...can’t happen. It meant nothing. It meant nothing, Jennie.” she tried to convince herself as she worked on pretending that the dream didn’t happen.
Boy, it was going to be hard to act normal around Jungkook in the morning.

Six of Crows Character Design Notes
As promised, here are my character design notes for this! These are all Six of Crows era and not Crooked Kingdom. The grayscale versions have four distinct values to have a comic feel, which may not match up with the color designs. Also, I’m certain I’ll continue to change up these designs, give them new outfits, etc as I draw them more, so think of these as works in progress.
So, without further ado... let’s get to the designs!
Kaz
Tumblr media
Monochrome color palette with hints of light purple, the color of kruge
Kaz never wears white, not even as a dress shirt. The merchants do wear white dress shirts, so this makes him distinct. Dark colors also make things easier to conceal.
They’re easier to see in this post, but he has two prominent facial scars and a few moles. A few other scars cut through the shortest part of his hair.
Each canon couple has an aspect that connects their designs. Kaz and Inej are connected through dark colors and vests
Inej
Tumblr media
Black and blue-violet palette. I possibly see her theme color becoming a deep blue in CK (sea-related, symbol of trust, separates her identity and goals from Ketterdam purple)
Arm guards are double-layered to hold a knife each
Gold piercings contrast the blue-violet to show a difference between her old life and her life as The Wraith
Jesper
Tumblr media
I imagine him wearing all sorts of colors, but I went with the yellow-green outfit described in a flashback. He wore more neutrals with hints of Jurda orange before joining the Dregs
Jesper’s concept was very cowboy-inspired to match his pistols. He wears boots instead of common dress shoes
Styled in Barrel Flash as seen from the three different patterns
Matching earrings with his family
Connected to Wylan through patterned pants
Nina
Tumblr media
Red, cream, and brown palette to contrast the gray and black palettes of other characters
Heart motif seen through the pattern on her slip and the toes of her boots
Lots of Ravkan jewerly, especially bracelets to visually represent her powers
Connected to Matthias through brown boots
Matthias
Tumblr media
Cool blue and warm brown colors (contrasting colors, a character at odds with himself)
Prepared for anything with lots of pockets and an extra scarf
Scarring from prison and a bite mark from Trassel
Like Inej, he’s in a grounded pose to show his unwavering nature
Wylan
Tumblr media
Red and gold palette like the Van Eck family but more neutral (disillusioned by his father’s true nature)
Boots from a second-hand store. Laces tied around ankles to fit better
Dirt smudges from experiments, unable to buy many new clothes
Bag carries supplies, with certain chemicals stored on the outside for easier use (no, they’re not pokéballs)
Kuwei
Tumblr media
Theme color is gray or white from his lab coat. Maybe he wears more teal in CK? Haven’t decided on that yet...
His shirt may seem anachronistic, but apparently t-shirts were around in the late 1800s, so it can still fit the setting.
And... that’s it! Thanks for reading. If you have any questions about these, feel free to send an ask or put it in the comments.

Too Many Tildes' Amazing Isekai Adventure, Chapter 1
(I'm going to regret this.)
My name is Too Many Tildes. I have dark, navy blue plating with white eyes and light blue tildes underneath them (hence my name~) My gamer headset is shaped like cat ears and I wear a fluffy pink feather boa with a very fashionable cyan tank top and night-sky themed pants. My nail extensions are painted red just like my :3 face and my feet are shaped like high heels. This is the start of my story.
It was a cycle like any other. I was admiring my collection of Catboy Pebbles images (A.N. if u dont know who that is get da rubicon outta here!!!!) Suddenly my homosexual overseer alerted me to something funny happening outside. I looked through the feed and saw... A METEOR!!!?????? And it was SHAPED LIKE A TRAIN?!?!??!!? And it was headed STRAIT FOR MY CAN!!!!!1!1!1!111!!1!11! I gasped right before the train struck me, exploding me into one billion pieces!!!11!! The world was going dark around me as my chamber shattered and I fell down. The last thing I remember seeing was flames surrounding my structure and the bright, beautiful sky.
~ ~ ~
"Hey! Listen!"
I groaned and opened my eyes. Omg!!!! I'm alive?!!?!?? I glanced next to me and saw... my overseer????
"Get up, catboi," it said, turning all different colors of the rainbow. I decided to just lay there instead until its feelers tickled my face.
"Hey~ Stop that~" I said, shooing the overseer away with my hand, but it just teleported to the other side of me.
"You can't sleep on the dirt in the middle of the forest," it said firmly. Forest? I sat up and looked around. Sure enough, I was surrounded by trees!!! But I also noticed... MY CLOTHES WERE GONE!!!!!1!!!!1111! I wasnt naked tho, just wearing horrible peasant clothes. BUT I DIDN'T HAVE P[ATNS!! All I had on wad a plain white cloak. 
"Where da rubicon am I, oveseer~?" I asked. The overseer rolled its eye at me.
"Rude. I'm Ounce the Overseer. We're in the Iakesi forest," it explained. Iakesi forest? Id literally never heard of such a place. Though the name kinda sounded familiar...
My thoughts were interrupted by the rustling of the bishes. I stood up quicjkly, which was weird considering Id never stood on my legs before. It came so naturally to me for some reason. Three orange lizards emerged from the bushes, grinning at me. I hadnt realized until now how big they actually were.
"Oh shit, yellow lizards!" Ounce shouted and darted onto my shoulder. I thought they were ornage but whetever. They were wiggling their antennae s they approached me, and openned their mouths. Lizards weren't supposed to be this active, were they?
"Tildes you have to run the other way NOW!!!!!" Ounce yelled in my ear. I didn't know what tghe lizards would do to me but I wasn't going to stick around to find out. I turned tail and ran in the other direction. The leaves crunched underfoot and the trees blurred past me as I ran.
"This is just like that hit game PSMD!" Ounce said as I sprinted. I didn't know what the heck it was talkin about.
Suddenly I tripped and went tumbling down a slope I didn't even see. The foliage scraped against me as I flailed around. Then I collided with something metal with a loud BONK followed by an "oof!"
I locked up from my faceplant and saw purple?!??
"Ouch..." said the purple. I scrambled away and saw the purple was ANOTHER ITERATOR!!1!!!!111! I must have crashed into him and knocked him to the ground.
"Omigosh~! I'm sorry~!!! R u ok~???" I said quickly. The other iterator sat up and looked at me. He had funny asymetrical antennae and soft pastel eyes so beautiful I could get lost in them~
"I'm alright, I think..." He brushed some leaves off his rumpled dress. It was a really cute dress, tan with red rose patterning all over it and frills at the end of the sleeves. He was wearing an apron over it, with a cute little bow tied at the back.
"Stop staring," Ounce hissed in my ear. But where else would I look?
"What about you?" He asked. "You crashed right into me. Are you alright?" His voice sounded so soft and concerned.
"Um~! Ya~!! Just fell off a cliff running away from lizards haha~" I stuttered. The iterator gasped.
"Oh! Are you sure you aren't injured or anything?" He stood up and helped me stand as well. I blushed when he took my hand.
"I'm fine~ Just as fine as you~" I said smoothly, winking. One of Ounce's feelers slapped its eyeball. He seemed to freeze for a moment, eyes wide as he stared at me. No doubt flustered by my charming pick-up line.
"O-kay..." he said slowly, letting go of my hand quickly. He bent down and I noticed a woven basket tipped over on the ground. He must have dropped it when I crashed into him. Scattered all around it are... SHROOMS????? Omgosh, had I just bumped into a DRUG DEALER?!?1/!?!?
"Why do u have shrooms~!?" I blurted out. He flinched at my words, but looked up at me with confusion.
"W-what? Oh, I was gathering wild mushrooms. They grow around this time of year," he said, gingerly picking one up and placing it in the basket.
"They aren't drugs, Tildes, they're just mushrooms," Ounce whisper-yelled in my ear. I batted it away from my shoulder because it was being seriously annoying rn.
"Oh no~! I'm sorry I caused u to spill them~ Do u need help~?" I crouched down to help pick up the mushrooms but he quickly shook his head.
"No no, it's fine! It's okay!" He said. "It was an accident. I can get these by myself." Okay, well now I'm left feeling kinda awkward. I tried to think of something to break the tension as he placed the last of the mushrooms back in his basket.
"Hey~ I never got ur name~ I'm Too Many Tildes~" I said. He looked at me a little funny, but I couldn't figure out what he was feeling.
"I'm Nothing Well-Made," he said. "It's... nice to meet you... Too Many Tildes."
"U can just call me Tildes~" I responded.
"And I'm Ounce." the rainbow overseer appeared between us. Nothing startled backwards.
"Gah! A talking overseer?" he exclaimed.
"Uh~ ya~ dont ur overseers ever talk to u~?"
"No!"
"Please calm down," Ounce said gently. Nothing took a moment to compose himself, but he still looked totally freaked out by my talking overseer. "Nothing Well-Made, would you be willing to let Tildes spend the night at your shelter? She's lost, and has nowhere to go."
"Um..." Nothing glanced at me nervously. I was also reminded that UH HOW DID I GET HERE??!?!??? I THOUGHT I DIED TO A METEOR!!!!!!!!1!
"S-sure," he said, distracting me from my thoughts. Nothing beckoned for me to follow. "My cottage is this way."
The forest around us grew darker as we walked, probably from a combination of the oncoming rain clouds and night falling. Ounce stayed perched on my shoulder as Nothing led me through uneven terrain. He glanced behind every so often to make sure I was following. I liked that.
We finally came to a small copse in the woods. In it stood an run-down cottage shelter. It looked dirty, and it was covered in ivy and moss. A small, fenced-in garden was planted next to it, but I couldn't see anything planted in it at the moment. The cottage must have been very old to be in such a haphazard shape. Or maybe, it simply wasn't well-made. (A.N. see what I did there~? :3)
"You live here?" Ounce asked, zipping down next to Nothing. "How does this thing withstand the rain?"
"We put a magic seal on it that prevents the rain from damaging it," Nothing explained. "My boyfriend did most of the work though. He knows more about magic than I do."
I felt my heart sink down into the void sea. Nothing was already taken? Of course he is~ I thought. A cute boykisser like him would have trouble staying single~
Completely oblivious to my heartbreak, Nothing opened the cottage door wide and gestured for me to step inside. I entered with a lot less enthusiasm than I started with when I first met him. The inside of the shelter was small, but cozy. Everything was bathed in warm colors, and potted plants seemed to decorate every surface. A small love seat was positioned in front of an inactive fireplace, and the kitchen was so small that it would struggle to fit two people inside. I didn't see a bedroom anywhere, so I could only assume it was upstairs, seeing as there was a small staircase leading to a second story.
"Woah~ Ur place is so cute~" I said as Nothing followed inside and closed the door.
"Thank you," he responded nervously. "F-feel free to make yourself at home on the sofa. Is there anything I can get for you?"
"You got any water~?" I asked. I was getting pretty thirsty by that point.
"Of course! Ice or no ice?"
"No ice pls~"
Nothing walked into the kitchen to prepare the water as I went to have a seat on the sofa. It was a nice, soft sofa. I wondered how often Nothing and his boyfriend got to cuddle in front of a roaring fire. Must be nice~ I thought.
As I sat, I could hear Nothing and Ounce talking quietly in the kitchen. I couldn't make out anything they were saying though. I wondered if Ounce knew how strange it was for me to suddenly appear here, off my string. Nothing was also off the string, assuming he had one. Odd.
Nothing walked into the living room with two glasses of water and handed one to me. "It's filtered water," he said. He unplugged something from behind his head - some kind of long tube - and put the end of it in his glass. I suddenly realize I had no clue how to drink water.
"It's a water intake tube. You have one too," Ounce whispered to me. I put my hand behind my head and felt around until I brushed over something thicker than a wire. I pulled at it, and the end of the tube came loose. I put it in my glass of water and automatically started drinking, cooling me off.
"So~ Where's ur boyfriend, Nothing~?" I ask innocently. Nothing stiffens, and Ounce glares at me.
"Um," he stutters. "Well, he's not been home for a while. He's-"
Nothing is cut off by a knock on the door!!! OMG IS IT HIS BOYFRIEND!?!?!??!??! Find out next chapter!!1!!111!!1!1!

i know i JUST did this with the pony au but.. been thimking of.. saiki k spidersonas.. head in hands..
let me give u my ideas😋
this is just a brainstorm dont judge if its cringe
chiyo- love bite
pink+orange suit
HEAVY on the mask eyeliner
suit has a cute lil skirt, both cuz its just cute and fun and cuz she was insecure about the way the skintight suit looked
"i stained my mask with lipstick.. why did i do that..." (continues doing it)
eventually she just makes a mask that doesnt cover her mouth and realizes she shouldve just done that in the first place cuz one of her powers is her sharp ass venomous teeth😭(venom only deadly if she bites for a REALLY long time)
also for some reason i think one of her powers would be like an ABSOLUTELY EAR SPLITTING SHRIEK.. not bad enough to make people go deaf, but it seriously disorientates them and makes their ears ring
shun- jet black widow
blue+black (+red accents? maybe yellow to go with his whole thunder thing)
bat wings on his suit.. can he fly?? prob not.. sure can glide though!!
aren- the demon killer ??? (just his gang alias, idk what else to name him)
purple+black (+red accents?) ((matching with shun?🤔)
i feel like his only power would be super strength (but like.. SUPER super strength.. bros crazy strong already so...) and he would have to manually create a suit that gives him more spider-like capabilities.. why did he need to become a spider-person instead of just being a regular superhero?? um cuz its cool and his friends were doing it obviously..
kokomi- heart slinger
blue+white
her suit also has a cute lil skirt, mostly cuz she didnt want annoying guys to be weird about the skintight suit
y'all know miss heed from villainous??? she prob has powers like that but yk.. less evil
i also imagine one of her powers being that shes somewhat indestructible.. like thats exaggerative ofc but it probably takes a LOT for her to bruise or bleed and she can take a lot of pain.. it just feels right to me, fitting for her perfect girl thing..
mikoto- tiger spider
BRIGHT pink+animal print
COVERED in what looks like stickers but is actually just cute little images embroidered on the suit
can obv still see the future like in canon.. cant decide if she has other powers naturally too
i kind of imagine her just updating kusuo on the sidelines or something but that might make her seem like too much of a sidekick and i dont like that so maybe she stays with him and does her predictions right there
maybe shes like aren and just has the one power but has special suit technology.. kusuo prob helps her, which i'll talk about in a second
ALTERNATIVELY she could be like peni parker and have a robo suit (covered in stickers and very decorated..) where she can safely do her predictions while controlling the suit.. she could use both interchangeably or either one idk
BIG social media following.. posts EVERYTHING.. pisses kusuo tf off
kusuo- cyborg spider man / psi bug
the media calls him the first name because its a running bit and hes PISSED about it
was thinking he'd just be plain spiderman but there has to be at least some sort of theme to go with his limiters sticking tf out the mask
despite already being the most powerful, his suit is the most technologically advanced.. hes just seriously really extra, bro prob made big spider legs sticking out the suit even though he can fly and defy gravity already.. he doesnt need them.. but it sure does look cool..
helps the others make advancements in their suits too
he'd prob have different limiters in this au too, like ones that limit in different amounts so he can fight efficiently
fyi he did NOT want to be a spider person cuz ew spiders but after a power reveal to his friends and them all having some weird accident or something and getting these superpowers snd THIS was the gimmick they went with.. he didnt have much of a choice
anywayyyyyyy most of them prob have secret identities and dont wanna be public (for various reasons) but miko would definitely just tell everyone who she is.. kusuo would constantly be having to protect her from stalkers and the like when shes just trying to live her life
kokomi prob tried to be secret at first just to prevent having MORE stalkers and general crazy people surrounding her every day life, but she would def be the first person to be exposed by the public because.. well, the media would be OBSESSED with her but also, shes just really obvious and doesnt realize shes not being subtle at all.. prob has all her long blue hair out of her suit and everything.. eventually she prob decided against having a mask at all (or just having one around her eyes) cuz being pretty and perfect adds to her whole thing
kusuo is pissed at both of them cuz he seriously cant handle hanging out with them in public now.. like if it was bad before, its terrible now
alsooo i was thinking about whether or not all his friends knew each others secret identities from the start or not and i started considering like if they didnt at first, yumehara would have a crush on kaido or the jet black widow and i was thinking theyd team up or something and she'd be like ugh i cant crush on this guy, i have kaido !!! and then i realized, this is just miraculous, i was making yumekai miraculous 😭😭
is kusuke a supervillain? ehhhh, probably nottt, he'd prob be similar to how he is in canon.. jealous and obsessive over his brother but doesnt really care about anything or anyone else enough to really be evil, he prob creates crazy supervillain esque tech that could rival the heroes easily but only uses it in private against kusuo cuz he wants to prove he can beat him.. kusuo comes back from his brothers place absolutely BATTERED and bloody and the others are like "?!?!? did u battle someone and not tell us???" and hes like nah i was just hanging out with my brother
just a thought!! i didnt do everyone but with some of the others, i wasnt sure whether i would want them to be spider people in this au or not, like maybe theyd have some other role ?? would not be opposed to it though if anyone else has ideas for it or if i think of something..

I'm in love with @ybcpatrick 's post!ybc au and I really need to scream my headcanons/silly little ideas into the void.
- one night the power goes out in the studio. instead of finding a flashlight, Pete goes "wait guys I got this" and just shakes Patrick until he gets angry enough for his eyes to glow yellow. they use him as a little nightlight. Andy, Joe, and Pete find it amusing. Patrick does not.
- Once Patrick got comfortable with walking around outside again, he constantly needs someone's hand to hold. Usually it was Pete's, Andy's, or Joe's, but sometimes when he was out with a manager or other members of the crew (when they eventually go on tour) he just. grabs their hand. and won't let go. and everyone around him just understands and if Patrick grabs their hand, they Do Not Let Go Under Any Circumstance.
-Patrick is a still considered the main suspect in Joes death and is wanted by the police, but since the major piece of evidence to convict him is a) Alive and b) Living with him, the police can't do anything about it. Doesn't stop Patrick from getting severely anxious anytime he notices a police officer around.
-Pete struggles with the things that he wants. He has essentially forced himself back into that old "protector" roll over the rest of the guys and because of that, he has a hard time conveying what he actually wants for himself. to help with decision making, Patrick gifts him one of those magic 8 balls as a sort of joke, and Pete becomes attached to it. now he consults the 8 ball on every decision
-during the production of save rock and roll, Joe dragged Patrick to their studio and helped him play guitar (joe played the chords while Patrick strummed). Patrick got over his apprehension of being alone with Joe pretty fast when he realized he got to play guitar again, and the two of them came up with the "Death Valley" riff together
- the day Patrick discovered that music no longer triggered him was the loudest the house had been in weeks. Patrick CONSTANTLY played music. his favorite albums and songs were always on repeat. he even put some quiet music on in the background while they slept. Patrick even took to singing along and dancing to his favorites and was the happiest he had been in a long time.
- Patrick has only one type of music banned in the house, and thats any song with Courtney Love in it. Joe also has banned Motley Crue from being played in the house.
-the four of them listen to at least one Elton John song a day. As a sort of thanks for bringing them all back to life.
-the first time the four of them went out in public together they met a small group of fans. Pete and Joe did the majority of the talking and allowed Andy and Patrick to stand back a bit. One girl asks if she can give a bracelet to Patrick and he says yes, and so she gives him a little Soul Punk friendship bracelet. After the fans left, Patrick nearly starts crying on the street. he NEVER takes that bracelet off.
-As a precaution, Patrick will wear sunglasses during interviews and occasionally out in public. Pete, Joe, and Andy will also wear sunglasses during interviews so that Patrick doesn't feel isolated or anything. When he eventually gets on stage, Patrick wears blue contacts.
-one time Pete and Patrick were being harassed by a street interviewer and it was really getting to Patrick, so he just took his glasses off and told the interviewer to fuck off. No one believed the guy when he started spouting about how Patrick Stump -- known by everyone to be such a nice, sweet guy-- had these crazy, glowing yellow eyes. Everyone thought the dude was a lunatic. Pete took the opportunity and mocked him on Twitter for it.
-Patrick changes the little LEDS on his hand to fit each album tour theme. for Save Rock and Roll, he uses his usual orange, but for AB/AP, he chooses blue (for Jet Pack Blues), purple for MANIA, and pink for Stardust.

Christmas Movies (Sticks + Purple)
This can be seen as Poli sticks or just platonic
Blue's fingers tapped softly on the wooden counter in a calm rhythm, distracted by the humming sound of the microwave as it heated up his mug of hot chocolate.
It was true that during the holidays, Alan spent less time in front of the computer. But to give his figures a authentic experience, he had downloaded a winter themed screen app so they could experience a cold month or two, giving the figures a very realistic Winter time.
Enough so to the figures to decide to use warms clothes and get comfy under blankets for most of the day instead of doing their own thing all day.
Red had the idea of a Christmas movie marathon after Second had begged Yellow to download them all for them. And apparently Blue is completely incapable of saying no to Red's big bright eyes.
Blue has never been one for Christmas. Not to sound too much like Green but Blue couldn't help but focus on negatives of the seasonal time.
His plants didn't grow well in the cold, and his potions went back much quicker and some ingredients simply would not work properly. Not counting that, it was also a perfect time for Christmas music, that seemed to put everyone but him in a good mood.
Perhaps it was his dwelling netherwart supply now affecting his already very sour mood, or the way too cheerful tone his friends got in this time of year, but oh Blue did not like Christmas.
But alas, Red was absolutely fanatic for the stuff, forcing everyone to join in the decoration of the desktop and a tree.
So now he was stuck watching as his mug spin inside the microwave and listening to Red babbling about the movie they were about to watch.
"Focus, Blue..." He would tell himself every feel minutes or so, but his mind had completely betrayed him right now, thoughts spinning, swirling, diving and hopping from corner to corner, never truly tuning in on what was being said. He could feel himself slipping away.
─ Earth to Blue. ─ Red softly waved his hand in front of his friend's face, sighing quietly before turning around to look at Green who was busy preparing the snacks for them. ─ I lost Blue again.
─ Give him a minute. Let him finish rebooting. ─ Green shrugged nonchalantly, dumping the popcorn all into one bowl.
─ Well... Tell him we're watching The Grinch first, I'm going to go get Purple in his room.
─ Aye, R'Dee, will do. ─ Green watched as his friend walked out of the shared kitchen, going up the stairs and disappearing from his line of sight.
The beeping of the microwave pulled Blue back into this reality. ─ Hot chocolate! ─ He exclaimed before opening the door from the microwave.
─ Welcome back to the PC, Blue.
─ I wasn't gone that long, I put 4 minutes in the microwave and i heard it beep, it can't be longer than that. ─ He tried grabbing his mug before hissing loudly and grabbing a piece of cloth to hold the hot ceramic. ─ HOT chocolate, Blue... It's h o t.
Green chuckled quietly at his friend's antics before looking down at his bowl again. Yellow walked into the room with a annoyed huff, putting his hip against the counter before crossing his eyes. ─ Are you both aware, Second Coming is planning a Secret Santa this year?
That made both Green and Blue groan loudly, none very excited about that.
─ Oh it's even worst than normal gift giving.... ─ Green whined dramatically. ─ That's why i fucking hate Christmas.
─ I know that it isn't ideal for none of us, but we are doing it for the sake of Second and Red. ─ Yellow sighed. ─ As much as it pains me to participate in such vexatious festivities, we must do so for them...
─Yeah... I already promised Red i would participate in the movie marathon so i can't really back out now... ─Blue sighed, sipping his hot chocolate and imediatelly yelping with the burning sensation.
─ Hot, Blue. ─ Green uselessly warned with a grin before taking the snacks to the living room.
Yellow sighed, rolling his eyes and patting Blue on the shoulder. ─ We will do our best for their sake. It will be over before we know it.
 
Red dragged from his balcony two big scarlet blankets to the couch, jumping in between as soon as his friends arrived in the living room.
Purple had already taken his place on the smaller armchair, hogging a entire blanket for himself and a cup of steaming tea. Second soon followed, squishing himself by Red's side and pulling Green along.
Blue held back a sigh but had to admit snuggling his friends was the one good thing about this weather. So he curled up at the end of the couch, Yellow happily being sandwiched between his side and Green's.
Movie night always been the same, without fail. But none of them complained about it. Being together in the warm was great and comforting, like any worries or problems just faded away together with the steam of a hot chocolate mug.
As always, the first movie was loud and full of comments, Green pointing out the funniest parts and Yellow the errors in continuity. Then both would start arguing about a non-existent problem the movie would bring until Second had to physically shut them up by feeding them cookies.
By the second movie, everyone was already quiet, enjoying each other's presence and the warmth with Yellow every so often bumping his head on Blue's side. Perhaps by accident or perhaps he's just desperately trying to stay awake. Not easy for someone awake since 2am.
Then the third movie starts and Second is already dead asleep against Green's shoulder, hugged by the waist and legs on top of Red's thighs, perhaps the most comfortable one in the couch. Yellow follows suit, like always, hiding his face on Blue's side and softly snoring there through the rest of the marathon.
Four movies in and it is already late at night, Red deciding to call it a night and finally go to bed.
Then the actual methodical ritual starts, Blue very gently lifting Yellow out of the couch, carrying him bridal style up the stairs and into his room, the very first one to be tucked in. Second Coming being right after, Green making a effort to take him to his bed, thanking the animator for his bed to be in the ground floor and not having to climb stairs with his heavy friend in his arms.
Red stood behind to clean the mess and turn off the TV, having a very sleepy Purple help out the best he could before being shooed off to his bed with a cup of warm milk and a warm red blanket as a borrowed item.
Movie nights were always the same, but Blue didn't mind, hell... He didn't think any of them minded, it was the best way of staying close to family.
Maybe this dumb holiday wouldn't be half as bad.

And finally, he is done!! My brain is fuzzy, help.
The first is his just... day-to-day clothes before he came to live with Shapur, I suppose! I thought I'd have a lot more to say about this. I tried to give him autumnal, warm colours as usual, though fun fact prototype!Kazai's main colour was green.
The next up is what he usually wears after coming to live with Shapur, the sketch next to it is my rough design of what his household staff/attendants would wear, and I... tried? to at least echo the wrapping and styling to theirs even if obviously Kazai's clothes aren't cut like theirs. Funnily enough he sheds a layer here hahaha.
Then comes his wedding attire! SO ORNATE. MUCH GREEN. I had so much fun designing this one even if it gave me a massive headache. The green robe part was shorter at first but that didn't really convey the ceremonial vibes I was gunning for in my eyes, so I elongated it. The white tree was... supposed to be a pine tree but I quickly realized all my attempts of drawing one looked like shit. So I gave up and drew a (hopefully decent) normal tree— which... I'm just gonna retcon and say it was supposed to represent whatever species of tree they planted at their wedding. At first instead of a tree I wanted to have a cat and a wolf, one on each side, but... it looked weird and it didn't work so tree it was. About the thing on his sleeves, the outer blue ring with waves represents the ocean, the triangles the mountains, and then I fucking forgot what the thing in the middle was, I probably had no clue what to put in there but not liking the empty look I just chucked smth random in. Forgive me! (Also I tried to incorporate purple into this!)
Also this is how his marriage bracelet looks (Shapur has a matching one):
Tumblr media
All the colours represent the two of them, save for maybe the outermost layer I forgot why I chose that colour there. Reddish pink (Kazai) and teal (Shapur) intertwined, enveloped by purple (Shapur) which is in turn enveloped by yellow (Kazai). Maybe the purple and yellow part would be reversed in Shapur's bracelet.
And then his ceremonial dance attire! Despite looking simpler than the wedding attire this might've given me even more of a headache because... ALL THE TASSELS. THE BORDERS ON THE SLEEVES. THE STAR/SNOWFLAKES. In terms of sheer tediousness this one would win by a landslide 😂😂
The borders on the bodice part were just... I just thought they looked cool, moving onto the sleeves I tried to have little stars in them but I don't know if you can even see them. The dark indigo part is supposed to be the night sky, and the white little things simultaneously stars and snowflakes. The tassels attached to that part, the colours are supposed to represent Northern Lights, because you could see them from the ancient island, it had Polar Days and Polar Nights as well— months where the sun did not set at all or would not rise. The same theme is repeated on the necklace. The symbol on the pendants... Let's just say it's a feeble attempt on drawing a stylized pine tree. If it failed well at least it looks vaguely like a tree? Also tiny little chimes hang from those pendants.
As for the bottom skirt portion of the robe... At first I was just gonna repeat the Northern Lights colours, or maybe just silver, but... I got bored. So I went buckwild with that one, I don't know what it's supposed to represent anymore.
Also that kind of gathered sort of shirt with puffy collars, they're only for ceremonial occasions.
I wanted headwear too, esp for the ceremonial outfits, but by that point my brain was pretty much dead so they don't look... very good... Here they are anyways:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(FUCK I FORGOT TO SHORTEN THE DARK BLUE ONE AAAAAA)
And this is how his tats look:
Tumblr media
This was uh, a Rant™! I hope you enjoyed this mess as much as I did.

Was going to paint this morning but instead... reorganized my entire workspace. I had been meaning to redo the color scheme on my paint set-up anyway. God a new magnifying lamp because I am getting blinder by the day and the base on this one is huge due to the weight of the glass magnifying glass.
Went with a red to green color theme. Started in the middle with yellow the worked outward to yellowish-green on the left and reddish yellows to red on the right. My fancy new spinning rack which is just fun and houses all my shades, metallics, and textures. It also holds, grays, blues, and purples, colors which I don’t find I use a whole lot of.
While it would be nice to be able to have to two shorter stationary racks next to each other so the color scheme is more evident and there isn’t a split, the lamp kind of gets in the way and like my legs, my arms are short so they need to be where I can reach them. The new color organization also allowed me to get my peach skin tones in a more readily available location. 
Now, I just need time to paint. However, I have to run in to work to resolve a key problem so that’s not going to happen right now.
How Not to Organize Your Office Tip of the Day: Put your WiFi Router in an easily accessible location centralized in the building. Putting it in the corner office located outside an exterior brick wall is just plain foolish.

Do you have designs of Team AZRE's families?
That I do! We'll start with Adam first of course:
Tumblr media
Since Cerise is the wilted rose to Adam's Beast, I wanted to keep a lot of Adam's own design in hers. Obviously, her pink is a softer version of Adam's true red, with the green shirt underneath being a nice complimentary colour that matches her green eyes.
I wanted to design her to have a very motherly and civilian look, so she's pretty much wrapped up with the loose "anime mom" hairstyle. Her hair is also the more pinkish-red than true red, which Adam still has, but her eyes are green rather than blue so that Adam didn't just inherit everything from her.
I also gave her cow ears, I just think they look cute! The tag on her right with the SDC is common practice in Mantle's mines, but not anywhere else in Remnant. Not every Faunus has them, and they were far more common when Cerise was a younger girl, but Faunus trapped working for the SDC are often given tags so that they can easily be tracked.
Tumblr media
Fun fact, Alon was originally called Chairo, Japanese for Brown, before I decided to go more for a Filipino inspiration to offset how I constantly go to Japanese for characters. I also made it that the parents are mostly opposites in their colour schemes, I just think it makes them look better together while still having something in common.
Alon is the Sarangay in Phillipine mythology, so I obviously went with a water/blue design to offset with Cerise' pink theme. The blue and white together also serve the water/water foam thing while the white helps to offset parts of his limps, such as his arms and feet, from the darker blues. His bull background is shown more with the bull shaped buttons on his jacket, and with the one earring to tie him to the Sarangay specifically.
His hair texture and horns are what Adam inherited, but also the eye shape and blue eyes. Really, Adam took Cerise' colours and emblem, but he really does look a lot like his father, just lighter skinned.
For a look into how his first draft looked like, here's an edit of him from about three years ago:
Tumblr media
Oof.
Tumblr media
Now Ghira is still Bagheera, but I did change some of his design to better fit both his allusion and where he lives. 
I never liked his canon outfit, especially with the fur, so I got rid of that and gave him more Indian-inspired clothing. He still has the same colouring, which is what Blake also uses, and you can really see that Blake takes after Ghira a lot compared to Hajimu. He uses the flower pattern on his shirt that Hajimu uses on her bolero, just so his black shirt looks a bit more interesting than just a standard shirt. 
The shawl over his shoulder also helped to add more of his purple, since his colour comes from his surname; Belladonna. He has the yellow decoration as a complimentary colour for his purple, and to match his yellow eyes. I also gave him ears to go with his claws, just because of how Faunus genetics work with Blake having ears too. 
Also, the arm sling is something he wears constantly after he was shot by humans while still in the White Fang. Some of the scars from that wound is visible under the wide collar. 
Tumblr media
Hajimu very much takes after Kali’s canon design, just with a few colour changes. As her name means blue-black in Japanese, the gold was swapped out for blue to match her eyes, along with the purple sash to tie her to her husband. Ghira has a blue wrist sash, but it’s on the arm that’s covered by his shawl. 
Her hair was also changed from black to silverish grey to mimic a wolf’s fur, same with her giant ears being specifically wolf ears. Since she’s Raksha in the White Fang and the okami-okuri for her personal allusion, she takes a lot of wolf imagery. 
Her eyes are now blue instead of gold, as well. Really, I just wanted to make sure both Ghira and Hajimu didn’t look the same, and that while Blake clearly takes after Ghira, she still has some of Hajimu’s features.
Tumblr media
Xanthe is obviously where Argenta and Zanthus get their Greek inspiration and allusions from, so he really was designed with Zanthus in mind, barring differences of course. He’s noticeably lighter skinned and has green eyes rather than the slit pupils, but Zanthus does use his colouring more with the golds and reds. He’s also the Lion faunus like his kids, rather than the wild cat Faunus that Sable is. 
His scars are from the Faunus Rights Revolution that he fought in, and he is missing his left hand, which he covers with his cape. His cape isn’t what inspired Zanthus’ though, as he uses the more typical back cape like Qrow and Ruby. 
Tumblr media
 Fun fact; her original colouring was blue because I thought it was purple, and now I know.
Also, she went through a pretty different clothes design than her original outfit, which is what’s described in her debut chapter. I designed her right at the beginning of AZRE, when my designing skills weren’t that great, so I redid her while doing these full bodies for the AZRE cast. 
Now her colour scheme reflects her actual name; Sigal, which means violet rather than Sable, the name forced on her. The purple is used with a very pale cream, almost white, and I went with Jordan inspired clothing because Jordan is where the Midians were thought to originate from with some research, and because she was always meant to be MENA like Zanthus and Argenta. 
You can obviously see where Zanthus gets his skin tone, eyes, but also his hair is meant to mimic Sable’s hairtype; a more fluffier version to Xanthe’s. Her emblem is also now visible, and honestly I just like the colouring of this outfit far more.
For comparision, her OG outfit:
Tumblr media
Cringe. 
Tumblr media
Similar to Sable, Argenta actually had gone through a rehaul of her design, but I did keep the colouring the same. Really, I wanted to personalise it more than the OG showed, and really feed into the heart of stone aspect that I wanted for Argenta’s design. She also has visible scars now because i like characters with scars, and I changed the bandana colour from light blue to orange for Qiu and for a pop of something contrasting. 
She also one of the few Faunus with animal ears to actually style her hair to show that she doesn’t have human ears. A lot of other Faunus actually style their hair to hide away this trait. 
Tumblr media
This was her original outfit. Not something I hate, but very plain and lacking compared to what she wears now. 
Tumblr media
Qiu is the last of Zanthus’ family outside of his own kids in the sequel, but he’s the adoptive son of Argenta and so is Zanthus’ nephew, and that plotpoint is actually a part of Argenta’s story and character growth. I wanted to do a red panda Faunus as well, so he was perfect for using that in his design. 
Obviously with the tail and ears, but the black stripes on his face are actually another traits of his. Since his name means Autumn, I obviously went with that theme in his look and his colour scheme, which implements some of Argenta in due to how close they are. He’s honestly one of my favourite designs despite being pretty straightforward, and it’s just so cute. 
Tumblr media
Since Hisui is the Kashima God to Ruri’s Namazu, I wanted to keep the water theme with him, hence the wave patterns on his sleeves and kimono. He��s also where Ruri gets the catfish heritage from, though Hisui differs slightly in that his ears aren’t completely fins, which helped him avoid the whole becoming deaf part that his daughter struggles with. 
He has the scales still, and the gills are hidden away by his beard. I also styled his mustache to looks like the catfish whiskers. Besides that, he takes a very fuedal Japan daiymo look to his outfit since he is very rich, but still keeps the waves to tie back to his humble fisherman roots. 
Tumblr media
The Kashima family really hasn’t differed from the OG drafts I had when I first created them. Everything is really the same except the added checkered Obi, and the sakura patterns on her kimono. Since she’s themed around the pearl, I used more pinks/purples/whites in her design to reflect the typical colours of the pearl.
As she’s the Maneki-Neko, she’s a calico cat and is based around money, having a more rich style clothing to match her background. The hair decorations are very common for wealthy women in Northern Mistral, but none are as extravagent as the Empress who started the whole trend. 
It’s very pretty, but a pain to draw all those little details.
Tumblr media
Seigyoku is very much the same design as she started with, save for the addition of a few details. She has added thigh belts for her fans, her belt now has sakura patterns on them, and her emblem is now on her chest. It’s a latern to allude to the laterns that Bakenekos are attracted to in Japanese mythology.
And since her allusion is the Bakeneko, she inherited the cat traits from Shinju to follow with this choice. She obviously looks very similar to Shinju, compared to Ruri taking after Hisui, but neither of them have lilac/green hair. In universe reason? They got it from their grandmother. Out of universe reason? I designed the parents after and the blue hair clashed with their set colour palletes.
Now, Eirian has legit the biggest family out of her team, and I believe the whole cast, so her section is obviously gonna be longer. 
Tumblr media
Very much Eirian Snr. I could’ve added more of Clementine to Eirian’s design to counter just how similar she is to Icheku, but I ended up not doing that since I wanted to reflect how close Eirian and Icheku are compared to the absence Clementine has both in life and death in Eirian’s life. 
But I did give Icheku a contrasting colour pallete and obviously visible Faunus traits. He uses white, browns and oranges against Eirian’s whites, blacks and blues. But he obviously wears more Zulu style clothing, and the silver bracelets that Eirian does. His necklace is also there from when he turned eighteen, but the necklaces are unique in that they reflect the colours of the wearer.
Specifically, their eye colour and the complimentary colour; which is why Icheku’s are purple and yellow while Eirian’s are red and green, they both have different eye colours. You also can’t see on this, but Icheku actually has rectangle pupils rather than the typical round. 
Tumblr media
No one make fun of how similar Clementine looks to Yang. My friends do that enough. 
There wasn’t much in the notes for designing Clementine. Really all there was down were “GingerTM” and “CelticTM”, and that was what I went off on. She has Scottish and Irish influences, and her mother/sisters are more Irish, but I have her father as the Scottish one where she got her last name from. And since she has orange hair, I could use that orange as an accent and a connection to Icheku.
The rest is just different shades of blue, and white for the ivory parts in her corset. The silver bracelet is obviously Icheku’s, since marriage involves giving a part of yourself to your spouse, and vice versa. It’s why Eirian wears a yellow hair tie and Yang wears one of her bracelets. Her emblem is also the Triquetra, which is the Celtic symbol that has connections to spirituality and family.
And she has face scars because I like them. 
Tumblr media
Another fun factTM: I can’t spell Muerinn’s name properly. Her name is actually  MUIREANN but my dyslexic ass misread it as Muerinn. She’s one of Clementine’s younger sisters that she left in Atlas when she went to Haven Academy. 
But anyway, her allusion is Anne Bonney because I wanted a pirate character for the pirate colony south of Vacuo. With both her names connecting to the sea and dark, her colour scheme is very oceanic, with the different shades of blue, white and silver. The orange is meant to be like a complimentary colour to her blue, and to connect her to Clementine, so it’s the colour of her sash and one of the pendants she wears.
Another of my favourite designs, I should draw her without the jacket sometime. 
Tumblr media
Aisling is Muireann’s twin, so she’s Eirian’s maternal aunt. She also shares the Celtic inspiration that the rest of Clementine’s side of the family does, with the wide shaped sleeves, skirt and corset, and cape, but I added some eye imagry to tie into her allusion of Babd; who is connected to foretelling of battles and deaths.
Which is also why she has Clementine’s Triquetra as part of her emblem, and also wears orange in connection to her deceased sister, like Muireann. She’s also blind, which is why her red eyes are milky in colour compared to Muireann/Clementine/Eirian.
Tumblr media
Last of Clementine’s shown family is Roisinn, her mother and Eirian’s maternal grandmother. She’s very much designed after the old women I see constantly in my real life, and her long skirt was great for adding the extra detail; including the roses where she got her name, her tree of life emblem, and the broken Triquetra to symbolise her broken relationship with Clementine.
She originally had black hair which the twins get, but her eyes are pink rather than red, as they all get their red eyes from their deceased father.  
You can’t see under her sweater much, but she also wears a back brace, since she has a bad back from her work in the SDC mines. 
Tumblr media
Safou is the only living relative on Icheku’s side, and has actually been alluded to in the story, but she’s very much separated from her son and granddaughter. 
While her last name was taken by Eirian, I designed her to have the more Zulu inspired clothing like Icheku, but she has the ewe ears compared to horns that Icheku got from his father. Her ears are actually inherited by Eirian, but they’re recessive so she doesn’t show them. 
The giant scar on her right arm came from a Dust explosion, as she originally was from Vacuo but was taken to Menagerie to work in the mines set up there by Atlas. She remained in Menagerie after it’s reclaimation.
Tumblr media
Jacob is Muireann’s lover and can be seen as Eirian’s uncle, with the two having adopted Sage, but yeah his allusion is Mary Read and they’re another pirate like Muireann. Nothing much to say about his design since I never really had a set look for him before, but I do remember really wanting him to wear  the thigh high boots so there we go. 
His name was originally Bluebelle before he fell in with the pirates, so that’s also why he has blue, plus it connects him to Muireann. 
Tumblr media
Finally, Sage rounds it off for the families. 
He’s been repurposed from canon RWBY, since he’s now in the pirate crew ran by Muireann, so his design is slightly different. I shortened his giant white coat and added a few decorations, and I might redesign him again in the future since I’m not 100% on this look, but it’ll do for now.

GRADUATION CAP
Tumblr media
my graduation cap is inspired by @alexanderwesker 's fic, The House Always Wins, so i figured that i'd share it here ^^
more stuff about my process under the cut :]
theme
i wanted to find a hopeful quote from thaw, since that actually fits the tone for a graduation. and that line in Chapter 10: "Against all odds, Q had won." came to mind. and i thought that quote was pretty damn fitting for my graduation story too, with just how many difficulties came up that made it so much harder for me, with covid and virtual school being a big one, though there's definitely way more too..
and just like how q was tempted to fold during his bet against quackity, i could've easily just given up instead of dealing with all the stress and chaos that was my entire high school experience. but both q and i decided to still see it through, even with all the uncertainty that we had to deal with from that choice to keep going. and despite all the odds that were stacked against us, we had still managed to make it and get that first ever taste of triumph. hopefully the first of many.
design
so since i went with the quote about q winning his first ever poker game, i decided to go with a gambling theme.
i knew i wanted an ace of spades card visible, since, for one that's the card that q won with, and for another, aces symbolize growth and excellence, and i figured that'd be good for a graduation.
i also put that smiley poker chip on the little button-thingy, since it was just too perfect not to do. i would've liked to glue an actual poker chip onto it, but i didn't have the time nor the poker chip, so i just used paper.
colors
i really wanted to incorporate red, purple, black, white and teal/cyan for this project, since those are the colors that come to mind when i think of thaw.
at first i wanted to put both red and purple cards, but i quickly found out that purple playing cards are trickier to find, especially ones who have matching backs with the red ones. so i decided to just go with red playing cards, and do purple flowers instead, since that's a pretty common thing that people put on their caps.
i also wanted to include a sculk flower, just because i had some extra space and thought i might as well, yk? though it was a bit sad that i couldn't find any fake roses in that color, i had to go with a peony instead, but i think the color is pretty close to what's in minecraft, so i'm not too mad about it.
i picked the blue-green letters bc i figured it'd match the 'sculk' color well, and also it's like my favorite color so that was a bonus (also ik they're a bit more yellow in the picture, i had to manipule the lighting so that the letters were more legible on-camera. here's what it looks like without the lighting, from a different angle where the light isn't hitting it like that):
Tumblr media
^ definitely more matching, but you can barely read the bottom letters on camera, so i needed more light
also the colors are perfect, because red/white and purple/teal are actually the colors of the two high schools that i went to, so my classmates would never know the real reason behind me choosing those particular colors.. they'd think it was just me showing school pride. little do they know, i'm actually just a massive fucking nerd (they definitely already know that, but i can pretend)
but yeah, there's my silly little special interest cap. getting into thaw definitely made my high school experience a whole lot better. and with all the thaw-related things i drew for assignments, i figured it'd be wrong of me if i didn't commemorate thaw here somehow ^^

Rating Eurovision 2022 looks
It’s me again! I meant to do this around the time the contest was actually happening but then I didn’t have time, so deal with it. I have fun doing these. And it helps stave off the withdrawal.
Tumblr media
I want your Grandma yum yum -Honestly this is such Eurovision chaos and I lowkey love it even if I also find the song a little annoying even if it’s also catchy -I just feel happy when I see them, this is the weirdness I like getting a taste of at Eurovision -My one critique is I think it would have been better if they all had the same shoes instead of two of the dancers wearing heels. I just prefer the sneakers 9/10
Tumblr media
Moldova train boys -Traditional meets contemporary, we love to see it -I wasn’t sure about the hoodie and the hat at first, but you know what? Why not? -This is what Eurovision is about -The colours and patterns match the fun energy of the song perfectly -Nothing else to say 10/10
Tumblr media
Chanel No. 10 -I’m probably about to get cancelled for my opinion on this -I like the matador theme and the sparkles and the mesh -But I would have liked it better if it were a regular body suit instead of a thong -There’s nothing wrong with her body, or the body of anyone who wants to rock this look -I just don’t like the thong aesthetic and it looks uncomfortable 7/10
Tumblr media
Onesie spaceman -Yes, I know, technically it’s a JUMPSUIT -Fits the vibe of the song fairly well and I like that he went with something we haven’t seen before in the whole show this year -Glittery and space themed without being ugly and gaudy, which I appreciate -Still not my favourite, but not bad 7/10
Tumblr media
The Champions -More traditional and contemporary, we love to see it -Not sure how I feel about the full-body suit/balaclava thing, even though I like the traditional patterns and it’s not like anything else this year -That pink bucket hat is so of the moment and while I wondered at times how he could see, it only reminded me of wishing other people let me be with my pink bucket hat as a child instead of telling me to flip the brim up to see my eyes, so I vibe with it -Also that guy with the big feathery costume looks very interesting even though I don’t know what he’s supposed to be. 10/10
Tumblr media
Latvian Vegan Wiggles -As soon as I saw the purple guy and the yellow guy they reminded me of the Wiggles -They want us to eat our salad, which I can only assume includes fruit salad -I liked their energy and colourful looks even if there was a fair bit of chest on display, which isn’t my favourite 9.5/10
Tumblr media
A ya ya -He’s so cute and I like his voice -This look fits the vibe of his Western-y song, which is an important aspect of a Eurovision outfit -But I thought it was kind of uninteresting compared to others in the contest this year 7/10
Tumblr media
Let the waaaaaaater carry me away -I know I just said Stefan’s look was a little boring, but while Ochman’s is also somewhat traditional I still really liked it -The blue ribbons representing the water really fit well with the song even if it didn’t always show up super well in the lighting -Also, he’s classically trained, so this outfit carries a bit of his history along with it -Anytime someone does something different than a plain black and regular tie is a victory for more interesting developments in men’s suits 8/10
Tumblr media
Disko Kids -ISTG the difficulty I had trying to find decent photos of these wonderful, wonderful suits -Retro, velvet, nice colours, gender neutral, what’s not to love? -These kids were done dirty by the voting they should have been in the final -Rocking these badass 70s suits 10/10
Tumblr media
Systur says Trans Rights -I know my posts about fashion are kind of silly but I want to end on a serious moment and say that this is one of the most important Eurovision looks this year -I could have talked about how pretty these women looked onstage, because they did, but this is more important -One of them is the mother of a trans boy and the whole group has been promoting trans rights in their clothes throughout the contest, and I love that they were wearing these shirts and stuff during their interviews -I love that they carried a trans flag at the competition, too -Also, the same article about one of them having a trans son said one of the other sisters is a lesbian, so stop saying lesbian rights and trans rights are in conflict because they’re not -I hope lots of people will listen to them 10/10

welcome to another wip wednesday where i share a blurb from my wip and pointedly ignore the fact that it is indeed 1am on a thursday because i am not time literate it’s the adhd
wip inder the cut!!
On the painted scene, a tall, red monster ambled along with a boombox on his shoulder. A green hippie girl sat atop a car chatting with a pink punk monster. On the front steps of one of the townhouses in the background, four monsters of differing colors sat laughing together over an inside joke only they knew about. Mikey studied them almost longingly before grabbing a can of purple paint and beginning a new monster nearby.
The sun was just beginning to wake, a golden bath washing over the buildings and streets that made up New York City. It wasn't the time of day people usually expected to find vandals, which meant no one was peering down the alley and disturbing him from his work. And as of late, Mikey had found himself needing these moments of solitude. This piece wasn't anything special, just a retro-themed city street with wild colors and funky monsters instead of people, but he was proud of it nonetheless. The colors went together just so, lots of yellows and oranges with pops of blue to add in some contrast here and there.
It was only the latest in a long string of murals from the artist. Mikey had been doing this for years, ever since he was twelve. Leo used to tag along, promising Raph he’d keep their brother safe while offering his opinions on colors and sharing ideas when Mikey had none in particular floating around. Leo had even painted on a few of the pieces himself, and would proudly leave a messy letter 'L' in blue paint next to Mikey's own signature. It was their bonding activity, they'd go topside together and spend a few hours looking for the ideal spot before setting up shop and talking until the sun came up. They'd gossip about everything, argue over their favorite movies, and confide in one another about how they really felt about one thing or another. Mikey trusted Raph with his life, of course he did, but there was something different to his bond with Leo that made it so much easier to open up and be vulnerable with him.
Or, it had been, anyway. Mikey hadn't opened up to anyone since Leo's disappearance five years ago.

after a lot of thinking, I decided to "please the fans" by saying my opinion and how I would "change" the designs to see if you guys shut up about the reboot!
Clawdeen, would keep the glasses, she wouldn't wear them all the time but would put them on when she went to sew, it's quite common for stylists to wear glasses to see better (an example is Rarity of my little pony friendship is magic) The hair is just like the new design, with swirling purple streaks and all. I don't know much about fashion but I think a more flamboyant outfit would be nice for her to wear, purple cheetah prints would be beautiful, a half train with rips and a half moon belt A skull themed necklace and red nails Freckles and eyebrows are identical to the official egg design. Above all, I wouldn't change anything because personally I think the design is very solid!
Draculaura, for our little vampire, the dress is perfect, the bat print is not necessary, maybe some white polka dots to contrast with the black. I would put more black on the dress and And boots with heart bows! The hair doesn't change and the hat shortens to a mini witch hat with a pink and black heart bow. Between everything I wouldn't change much either.
Frenkie.... No changes, they're so perfect just the way they are! :3
Cleo, the skin is dark as it is, a little bit of tape and metallic details and it would be wonderful! Long hair with metallic gold and blue highlights would also look great on her! She's perfect the way she is for me.
Lagoona will be fun. KEEPING THE COLOR PINK! Hair is still colored but it's looser and more platinum blonde (I think that's what they want to achieve with her hair!) In order not to take the blue out of her name, let's give her skin tones of blue, a gradient from pink to blue on her feet and hands, so the blue color doesn't disappear from her! Some pearl details in the hair, pink fish skeleton earrings, navy blue painted nails, sea monster ears, and the outfit would be a little sportier but also a little Little colorful!( Like, what's the problem with her being colorful??)
Heath, he's going to be changed a lot!! His hair isn't a torch anymore, ruffled red hair that combusts when he wants to. School jacket like the original with a black t-shirt with flame details underneath, flames but pants too, skin a little less orange and more light yellow and a less ridiculous face ;-;
Abbey, she doesn't show up much but I've seen people complaining (🤦🏻‍♀️), she will keep her new haircut, stylish winter clothes with ice details, a little lighter blue skin, fuzzy boots, And the glasses are maintained too, only instead of pink they will be a very light blue almost white!
Gooulha remains the same in the movie so for the animated series I would just put on a more flashy classic intellectual uniform, red glasses, striped clothes like the original,I don't really know how to make a design for her.
Among all, this is how I would redesign the characters for the reboot! But you realize that I haven't changed much, right? I just added what YOU WANT. I didn't change almost anything, because for me, the characters are so great the way they are! (except Heaht because he's really ugly T-T) Clawdeen if glasses look beautiful to me, you fans are the only ones who have a problem for some reason (I wonder if it's some prejudice against people with glasses...um...) Draculaura is as cute as ever, Cleo is even prettier than before, lagoona has become my favorite design and Frankie... Yeah, I won't change anything about them :3
I hope you understand my side, I don't think the designs are rubbish or a disaster, I still love the original but I think we should separate the two once and for all and just accept that everything is changing! And I don't think it's for the worse.
Maybe I'll make drawings of these redesigns Later!

Partners for the Digimon Frontier Digidestined
In Episode 47, the Digidestined land on the Yellow Moon, courtesy to an attack from the freed Lucemon. There they meet the Baby Digimon and Digimon Eggs they had previously encountered, which had been under Swanmon's protection. And each of the Digidestined picks up a newly hatched Digimon, holding them in their arms. One day, I had the idea of making a list. Based on the Digimon they each picked up, what would each Digidestined's partner be if they had partners instead of Spirits?
I went according to what each Digimon would evolve in according to Wikimon, which contains all kinda official evolutions throughout all the different media (be it Pendulums, games, or whatever). At the same time, I tried to stick to each kid's theme where possible, like electricity for JP and wind for Zoe. Only ones that were impossible were Takuya and Tommy, since none of the Digimon they picked up had anything with ice or fire in their evolution trees.
Also, the Digivices would be the D3 from Adventure 02, cause I like the idea that these partners would also be able to Armor Digivolve - into armor Digimon we didn't see in anime yet as well (or at least not with the 02 kid's Digimon. We got Sagittarimon appearing shortly twice, but I'd loved to see Veemon actually evolve with the Digimental of Hope in an anime).
So, have fun, and if you have any ideas, don't hesitate to let me know with a comment. ;) Enjoy the list!
Takuya
Digivice color: Dark blue
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chibomon - Demiveemon - Veemon - Veedramon - Aero-Veedramon - UlforceVeedramon
It would have been quite tempting to put the evolution line of Davis's Veemon. However, Paildramon and Imperialdramon are Jogress Evolutions, and we don't know what Exveemon would evolve into without Stingmon. Luckily, we have a very cool alternative option in the line of Tai's (probably) Veemon from the V-Tamer manga. So I went with that. Speaking of Tai - it's interesting that they gave him Chibomon and not Botamon/Koromon. The Agumon line would have kept the fire theme. But honestly... I would love to see the Veedramon line in anime one day. Or why not animate V-Tamer?
Koji
Digivice color: Light blue
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Poyomon - Tokomon - Patamon - Angemon - MagnaAngemon - Goddramon
What can I say, with him getting a Tokomon...? Of course I had to pick the Angemon line. I only switched up the Mega level, picking Goddramon instead of Seraphimon. For... multiple, sometimes obvious reasons.
Koichi
Digivice color: Dark purple
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Poyomon - Tokomon - Tukaimon - BlackGatomon - LadyDevimon - Mastemon
Oooff... my favourite Frontier kid, and he was the hardest to do. I wanted to keep a dark aestetic, since he does have the Spirits of Darkness. And I wanted to do like a dark counterpart to Koji. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of dark colored angel or angel-like Digimon that aren't evil. I think there are even none of those. That's why I was reluctant to pick LadyDevimon, since she usually is an antagonist when she appears in the anime. Isn't the only good LadyDevimon the one from Cyber Sleuth? But I think this is the list I feel most content with from all the option that I checked out. And Mastemon is pretty cool-looking. n.n I also could have gone with a cat aestetic, since, well, AncientSphinxmon, Löwemon and KaiserLeomon, but that worked out pretty badly as well.
Zoe
Digivice color: Pink
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Poromon - Hawkmon - Aquilamon - Sylphimon - Valkyriemon
Thank god they gave her Poromon. This made her list pretty easy. I mean, as holder of the Spirit of Winds, what better for her than a bird Digimon? Unfortunately we don't have a proper Ultra Level for Aquilamon, so I had to pick the Jogress Evolution Sylphimon. But I am not sad; it visually fits quite well with Aquilamon, and is also a perfect segway into Valkyriemon.
J.P.
Digivice color: Dark yellow
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Motimon - Tentomon - Kabuterimon - Alturkabuterimon Blue - Herakleskabuterimon
Another veery easy pick. Tentomon line. Elektric bug. Need I say more? I only switched Izzy's red Alturkabuterimon its blue variant to pay tribute to the blue in Beetlemon's color pallet.
Tommy
Digivice color: Light yellow
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Upamon - Armadillomon - Ankylomon - Shakkoumon - SlashAngemon
No ice for Tommy-boy here. However, I think he'd be very cute with Armadillomon, especially if it were anything like Cody's Armadillmon from 02. Here, I too had to pick the Jogress Evolution Shakkoumon for Ultra Level. But with SlashAngemon as Mega, I don't mind, since Shakkoumon serves as a good segway from earth to steel (and angel).
