My Art, Slapping Me Mercilessly: Stop Pretending That A Simple Box Of Color Counts As A Background You

🩷 The Name (✒︎ on Ao3) (Preview)

Spy x Family | Becky Angst Study | 3.1k words | Teen Up

When Becky thinks about the Blackbell family, she thinks of everything but family. She thinks of duty and of pain, of responsibilities that bind her and all the little joys that are supposed to be beneath her. She thinks of the other picture, the one in her room, and she thinks of Anya.

Aaaaaand, my fic for the @spyxangst zine earlier this year ~ The spot art was made by the amazing Saint Artemis (on IG) & the whole zine is free to download, so check it out, I had a blast working with this team 💕

(and once again this is gonna be some massive spoiler for anyone actually reading this AU, but like... pls, I can't stop myself)

The Crossed Torches are an old symbol for a gateway to the realm of the dead. Karasuno in particular has a deep connection to death and its manifestation—The Angel of Death, Azrael.

Once every blue moon, the angel, who has no permanent physical form in the realm of the living, chooses to take hold in a human who then becomes their vessel. The vessel provides their body and their soul as new habitat for the angel and offers themselfe as tool for the angel should they decide to take action in the corporeal world—whenever they act, angels usually choose to modify the body of their vessel to reminiscent their ethereal form. In return for hosting the angel, the vessel can use its power and call favors from the entity.

Suga was offered as a vessel by his father, in the hopes of Areal being able to cure his sickness. Not knowing the details and conditions of vesselship, Suga accepted in the hopes of now being able to die. However, it did neither what he nor his father wanted, as vessel ship is a soul-bond under the protection of mother fate and made his live her property (so that fate alone could influence it—he can neither take his live nor can Azrael prolong it). Since then their relationship has been rocky. At first, Suga was angry at Azrael for deceiving him but eventually came to the realization that he now had to make the best of the situation—from there on he quickly learned how to call upon the angel's powers, for example by reassembling the spirits of authors of rare books and make them help him reconstruct their works, translate them from their original languages or teach him in their field of expertise. Over time, Suga has gradually grown into his role as vessel and managed to find a harmonious co-existence with the universe-shaping entity making snarky comments inside his soul. The only things they repeatedly clash over is Azrael's increasing interest in Natsu (and Daichi's adamant dislike of the entity, although Suga is more annoyed with Azrael for teasing his husband than angry).

Thank you for all your nice comments 💕 It was fun drawing for you!

Leave my crown on the branch to the east, where the last ray of light shines at high noon; rest my sword behind the two rocks, where the moss grows green and soft. And I will always be there to guide you, among the souls of our forefathers, in this Sanctum of Kings, Temple of Death.

-> ATKB Masterpost

(Small spoilers ahead in case anyone is actually reading this AU and cares)

Crows burn the bodies of their dead to free the souls from attachments as far as possible and allow them to pass beyond the veil more easily.

Kings and Queens however are oath-bound to the land upon coronation and once they die, their crowns and blades are brought to a sacred cavern beneath the highest hill, in order to bind their souls there so that they may be called upon and provide wisdom and advise to their successors.

Nobody who is not a crowned royal is allowed to enter to sanctum and nobody who has entered is allowed to ever speak about it with anyone who hasn't.

In the night after a coronation the older/ruling kings/queens show their chosen successor to the sanctum and decide where they want them to hang their crown/place their blade once the day comes. In order to complete their anointment, a newly crowned ruler must submerge in the waters—this will bind their soul to the land for eternity. This is why becoming a king/queen of Karasuno is binding for life and can not be reversed.

The cavern also has a much older purpose: It serves as temple and resting place to the Angel of Death, whenever they aren't inhabiting a vessel (which they current are -hint hint-). The Angel, who embodies the concept of death, is worshipped by many although barely anyone knows what the being really is and that is is far less omnipotent than commonly believed.

hey :D I really enjoy your seijoh plants AU; maybe a nekoma version?

Ah thank you so much ^-^<3 I'm really happy that you like the plants AU.

To be entirely honest, this was more of a joke idea we had on the IwaOi BigBang server based on some silly talk and how there are animal versions of many characters but not Seijoh because they don’t have a mascot animal and less a serious AU concept, so I probably won't do any other teams as plants >.< But if that is something you're interested in, I will definitely keep it in mind for the case that I ever run out of ideas ~

"Why haven't you written this thing you said you'd write?" You see, my writing strategy is like if I had a list of ideas on a dartboard and I put on a blindfold and spun around three times before throwing the dart and sometimes it miraculously lands in the center where the idea I should work on is, but usually it misses the board entirely and lands on a brand new idea
