LOVE LIKE BLOOD
SPRING 2023...OR SOONER WITH YOUR HELP
well this is what ive been working on for the past almost 5 years- my first graphic novel. Love Like Blood is set in 1986 los angeles, and follows Nikolai Volkov, an eccentric, fashion designing vampire, and Vincent Rivera, a young rebellious type hired by Nikolai to model. the two navigate through the challenges and stigma caused by the then-ongoing AIDS crisis in the united states, and both learn about each other and themselves along the way.
this is still currently a work in progress, however as i get closer to completion, a kickstarter will be made to deal with the financial aspect of self-publishing. if you are interested please share with your friends and foes. cheers this has been a looong time coming and i am so happy that i can now push it onto other people

purplephone redesign!!!
behold! the Filipino-fication of og characters Vincent and Scott! tbh this is a rushed product from a small manic episode at 1am, and I’m starting to cook with this new design.
honestly, a lot needs to be ironed out about the whole Nadiverse lore, including these two. Most of all Vincent, since he was once thought of as William. In my AU, (as of 2024), William and Vincent are not the same anymore. ties.
as for Scott, he is pure filo, migrated to the US with plans to bring his family with him. but when his high paying job’s main ship sunk, he lost all funds to be able to come back home. hence, ending up at Freddy’s. ( a small nod to the difficulties of Overseas Filipino Workers )
aniways, i am need eep, more to come soon!

So... as to not get bored of BG3, I installed CP2077 again. And came to the conclusion that I wanted to start from scratch again, and thus deleted all my save files.
Even though Silver will always be close to my heart, I felt it was time for her to move on. And as such, I made new characters whom I hope I will fall as much in love with as the old ones.
Also, have the obligatory mirror selfies.
Vincent 'V' Yamada

Ilmi 'Phase' Rivera
Finnish Latino netrunner working out of the Coyote Cojo.
Jace
Aldecaldo techie
Keon 'Kj' Jones
Aldecaldo mechanic
Their stories will be added to as I come up with them.

question ! what would be the RO's plus the other characters (like alex, lucas, callie and etc) to a super self destructive MC who had no regards to their well being. like my guy will literally get shot multiple times and have a broken arm but will shrug it off as 'tis but a scratch XD
Not sure if I’ve answered a similar ask before but oh well. Anyway, I probably won’t do this for all asks I get, but I’m in a right kind of mood right now, so you’ll get the answers for some of the non-ROs too :)
Alonzo: “No, that is not a scratch.” Look, they may hate you but they still need you alive, so seeing this happen is incredibly frustrating for them. Would probably end up tearing their own hair out with all the stress.
Wesley: would just give you a nasty side-eye. Unlike all the other ROs, this is not new to them, though an argument may still arise depending on the gravity of the situation.
Owen: “I can see that it’s a very small scratch.” Owen can basically have either of two differing moods while saying this. He can say it while tending to the MC’s injuries, keeping his concerns to himself if the latter has kept trying to ignore his concerns, with some carefully placed questions in between small talks. Or he might say that with a poorly hidden sarcasm while ignoring the MC for the rest of the day (unless the wound actually warrants a huge emergency).
He’s kind, not saintly.
Jade: Mostly staring at the wound and at the MC before she drawls “You’re a fool” with such weight you’d almost think she’s not just as reckless. All I’m saying is, she’s not really in any position to say that but she still will.
Alex: MC gets the big brother talk nobody wants. Spoilers: Alex is not that good at it, and the conversation would probably turn into a massive mind game.
Lucas: “Sure, whatever.” He simply doesn’t care, though it is bizarre to him.
Callie: “As long as you’re alive, I suppose.” Not too comfortable with how the MC is shrugging it all off since she’d met a lot of people who were initially just as reckless and they’re all dead :))
Richard: Always thinks about whether to give the MC a lecture on why they should not take things so lightly or just. to heave a sigh and give up. He often opts for the latter.
Vincent: No, you don’t want to know what will happen.

Assigning OCs a Love Language
Tagged by @chuckhansen to do this uquiz, thank you!
Tagging: Whoever would like to join in!
Rolfe Trevelyan
an undoing influence
Can someone tell you what to do? You have been carrying so much love within you for so long it is starting to turn into anger (why does it matter, all you see is red anyways) and you have been dragging this body through each day and every night you are split open on your bed and it is so so so lonely. If someone were to walk in while you were on your bed that way and they stitched you back in a new way, lining the seams with their love and kisses, you’d probably find this dreary world a little more bearable. You want someone to turn you over and over until you look in the mirror and see yourself looking back at yourself with a gentleness which has been lacking in you since forever.
Vincent Trevelyan
a knife called grief
You have left your house, you have left those people behind, but what are you going to do about the memories which have taken root in you? You can run but not without them. You want someone to sit with you on this cool marble floor while the sun burns everything. You want them to cut your rotten heart and theirs too. You want to sit with it in front of you, let them see you with all your flaws, which haven’t been your fault but you have been made to believe so, and you want them to love you anyways. Because you know you’d do that for them.
Paxton Rivera
a story that ends in blood
The world has always been unkind, and when you have turned to yourself for comfort you have come face to face with an empty pit which seems to be laughing. You don’t care if it kills you but once you find someone whom you love and who loves you back, you will make sure nothing happens to them. They are yours. You will make a tear in this world and create a new place for you and your love if it comes to that. Because it has always been about love, and it is how it always ends.
