Swap au character intro part 5 (and final part, probably!)

Yeah I decided to stop procrastinating and finish doing these- apologies as I can't draw old people for shit lol. Oh yh also Chapter 3 out of the fic's out yippee!!!

(I can't seem to get the link to work but I don't think it'd be that hard to find on y'all's own- oops)

Anyway- ramblings about the designs below the cut, as all previous intro posts <3

Time to talk about Melami! Horray! Ok so originally when I was still renaming them to fit their reassigned fortes, I was gunna call her "Goldsteed" because horse. Animals. Animal investigation. I'm so fucking smart I swear /j. Anyway- she basically has her canon uniform except I covered it with a big 'ol fuzzy coat and matching legwarmers. I would've given them both an animal pattern too if I wasn't. Lazy... and I didn't wanna overwhelm it with too much detail either so. Valid excuse? Idk. Oh also the teeth tattoo on her cheek is meant to look more like tiger or lion teeth then human - hopefully it comes off that way lol.

And Lastly Zange. I can't draw old people I stg but I really put in my best effort here! I won't lie I was so hyped on the fact that I'd finally finished it that I forgot to give him his fave tattoo but just know he's meant to have the one he does canonically. As for his fit, I figured that he could dress a little more casually in this au since it's Aphex with the whole warzone backstory instead of him. I referenced the costuming for Peter Capaldi's version of The Doctor because... well, just because ig but I kept his original cane and haircut - albeit a little more raggedy because guess what- I can't draw super short hair either!!! Woohoo!!!

I doubt I'll be making any more character into artworks like this but I do have a lot of plans for things I wanna do with the various citizens of Kanai Ward - some of which include design alterations that I'm sure I'll get round to including in art at some point or another anyway. For now tho, imma stick to more of the writing then the drawing.

Raincode Tournament: Pucci Lavmin Vs Melami Goldmine

Master Detective Archives Spoilers !!

Listen, if Melami and Iruka were the culprits in their cases, it would have been so much more interesting. The whole thing with Zilch being an imposter and Icardi killing Shachi with that silly ass motive was just so boring.

Like, I feel like Melami being so warm and comforting to Yuma only to drug and betray him would have made the case a bit more interesting, something along the motives of “ he’s just a child, and he’s obviously not supposed to be here, so why not try to get rid of him “ was my hypothesis, because it felt more interesting than “ One of us is an Imposter, and obviously the imposter is a bad guy “ - I think it would have shown more grey area in the game, given more the question we’re wondering by Chapter Five. Who’s really the bad guy ? Are we the bad guys ? I feel like that leaves more room for Yuma to have character development.

And the idea that we already know Iruka is trigger happy really left a lot of room for betrayal in Chapter Three, and it could have had a more compelling motive, such as a heated argument among friends turned deadly. I’m not saying Iruka would want to kill Shachi, quite the opposite, her flaw getting the better of her, only for her to be apologetic in the mystery labyrinth, make Yuma question - is he really doing the right thing ? Is his pact with Shinigami actually beneficial to anyone ? Any time he does question it, it comes out of nowhere and disappears as quickly as it came.

Ah, gear grinding thoughts. 🤠✨🥂

Rain Code Vampire Hunters AU — CHAPTER 0

Tw: some blood, death

The story begins with a young man who woke up near a mysterious altar, inside a cave. He couldn't remember anything: how he ended up in this cave, his past, or even his name.

After looking around and checking his pockets, he found a letter. From that letter, the young man learned that his name is Yuma Kokohead, he's a vampire hunter and that he, along with many other hunters, was sent on a mission to find the mysterious Kanai City. The letter also mentioned that he should meet up with a group of other hunters to go to their destination together.

Therefore, Yuma had no choice but to leave the cave and try to find the other hunters, not even knowing where to go.

Luckily, he soon found them..... or rather they found him. All this time Yuma wasn't far from the station, where he, Melami, Pucci, Aphex, Zange, and Zilch were supposed to meet. And while the other hunters were waiting for the last person, they noticed «the little guy who got lost in the forest».

They were surprised to know that Yuma was the hunter-in-training they had been waiting for. However, they didn’t know anything else about him. Aphex even doubted Yuma's honesty about amnesia and that he's a hunter, but the letter and the vampire hunter's badge convinced the others of his validity. They had no choice but to set out for their destination.

They spent about a week on the road. During this time, Yuma got somewhat used to his colleagues. Not everyone treated him well, but for Yuma, these were the first people he thought he could rely on.

However, there was something that scared him. A mysterious voice that he heard more and more often every day. Yuma had begun to think he was going crazy, until he saw a purple ghost in front of him.

That day, Yuma had fallen behind his colleagues and got lost. He was shocked by what he saw. The ghost said she’s Shinigami – a Death God, with whom he had made a contract, and thanks to which he could now use her powers.

Yuma's head was spinning from all he heard. He couldn't immediately accept all the new information and the appearance of the Death God herself, but he was forced to put aside his worries and questions in order to return back to the others.

However, Yuma discovers something terrible. He finds Zange, mauled and covered in blood, about to die. Yuma runs to help him somehow, but Zange only manages to say, "He wasn’t who he said he was". Yuma began to panic, realizing that somewhere nearby is the vampire that killed Zange and is going to do the same to Yuma and the others.

Unfortunately for him, he then found the torn bodies of Pucci and Melami. While searching for both his companions and answers, Yuma thought more about Zange's words and realized that the older man had meant that there was a traitor among them.

Yuma eventually found the rest of their group, though not in the way he had hoped. Aphex was lying bloody and ripped on the ground, and in front of him stood Zilch, covered in blood and with black and red eyes, staring at Yuma with a feral expression. This image felt very familiar to Yuma, causing him to panic.

Zilch looked at him with a smirk on his face and inquired if Yuma remembers him. Yuma didn't understand what Zilch was talking about, but Zilch didn't care whether he remembered him or not. In his current state, getting rid of Yuma would be much easier.

Zilch began chasing Yuma. Yuma could only run until Shinigami began telling him that he should finally use her powers, as it was the only way he could be saved at this moment. Yuma desperately called upon Shinigami, the Death God transforming into a large scythe in his hands. Now the Death God has become a tangible material. She informed Yuma that this form of hers is the ultimate weapon against vampires, from which they cannot escape. And despite his poor skills with weapons, he entered into battle with Zilch. As a result, he barely, but defeated him, piercing him with the blade of the scythe.

Yuma didn't know what to do next once the battle was concluded. His colleagues were killed, one of them was a traitor, and he didn't even know where he was. He had wanted everything to stop at that moment and give him a chance to come to his senses.

However, he heard a rustling sound close to him, which meant that someone was nearby.

As he prepared to fight again, he ran into a tall figure, which frightened them both initially. In front of him, there was a middle-aged man with blue hair and glasses of the same color, standing near a tree, scared, holding his heart.

The stranger assured him that he didn't want to cause harm and was only worried, because he saw someone running in panic. The blue-haired man introduced himself as Yakou and said that he lives in this forest and helps lost people or vampire hunters who sometimes need a place to stay for the night or day. Although he admitted that he meets the latter of the two options very rarely, but over the past month he had spent a lot of time with four hunters who arrived in a nearby village. They didn't tell him their goals, but he himself admits that he can do little to help them.

Yakou then offered to take Yuma to the village to the others, to which Yuma hesitantly agreed, full of distrust but had no other options. On the way, Yuma recounted his experiences with his first group, after which Yakou expressed his sympathies and tried to help.

Happy that I finally got to do something big with vampire hunters au!

Initially, I was going to do something more large, including a comic about how Yuma met Yakou. But I realized that I don't have enough energy for it, especially recently because of work (it was a hard period), so I decided to do everything in this format

I didn't want to stray too far from ch 0 of the game, but I did add some new details and hints that I hope you'll find intriguing. Do you think Yuma really knew Zilch before he lost his memory?

I also want to thank @draconicsparkle ( I hope you don't mind that I'm tagging you here) for beta reading. You really helped me a lot!

I hope you all enjoy it! I would like to see your comments and any guesses you may have (my askbox is always open)

Thank you so much for reading!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RAINCODE

I didn’t exactly have anything planned to post so uh take these line ups I’ve been working on, I hope to make more of them

[real-raincode-takes]

jobs I think the cast would have if they weren’t detectives:

-yuma: author. he has some gripping monologues, and detective novels are one of his likes. with how prone to trouble he is, he’d have a lot of good situations to draw from to write stuff

-shinigami: housewife. but she’d sell illegally harvested corpses to med students on the side to make $$$

-yakou: he’d probably stay at the bar but that’s lame. maybe like a firefighter cause he loves helping people and he’d think it would help him win ladies (it does)

-fubuki: adventurer!!!!!! she was also so good as a waitress. she would love the rainforest café or some sort of themed restaurant

-halara: a vet. I think they could tolerate injured animals because they wanna help them. and that pays good enough for their tastes

-desuhiko: business major who becomes a salaryman. still plays music on the side, but it’s been hard to get gigs since the allegations….

-vivia: barista. librarian. something low effort. does in fact regularly fight in underground rings and one of his coworkers sees him but no one else believes them

-aphex: 🏀🏀🏀🏀

-zilch (real): some sort of wildlife preserve or zoo thing

-zilch (fake): CEO of animal testing and cruelty

-pucci: unemployed. she gets into discourse on tumblr and TikTok all day and lives like Portland polycule. okay fine she’d be a classical musician

-melami: model! I could see her posing for a tanning mag or some harajuku stuff

-zange: retired, part time grocery store clerk who always regales you with excessively long stories and complains about the high tech self checkout

Unearthed Scrolls (RainCode God AU Side Stories) Tale 2: Inner Turmoil

Please click here to read!

Tags are for each individual story! Please check the authors notes as well

Chapters: Story 2 Rating: Teen and Up Relationships: Melami Goldmine & Vivia Twilight, Yuma Kokohead/Desuhiko Thunderbolt, Vivia Twilight & Yakou Furio, Melami Goldmine & Yakou Furio Characters: Melami Goldmine, Vivia Twilight, Yakou Furio, Desuhiko Thunderbolt, Yuma Kokohead

Summary: You've heard of Vivia Twilight, God of Venus, and Melami Goldmine, Goddess of Mars, but did you know that that's not how they always were. Centuries ago, the two played the traditional role of femininity and masculinity well… but neither was happy. 

It wasn't who they were at heart. 

It wasn't until they decided to break from the traditional roles society had forced upon them and change. After all, Gods can change their appearance on a whim, why not their gender as well?

Happy Birthday Vivia! It was fun to write a story that explored gender. While I mainly picked Vivia for Venus as they both began with V and Melami for Mars as they both began with M, that got me thinking. You know the saying, ‘Men are from Mars and women are from Venus’, well I wanted to play around with this. So in this AU, Melami and Vivia are trans!

SPOILERS FOR THE WHOLE OF RAINCODE!

Not tagging people I tagged in the main story as all these stories are wildly different, however if you do want to be notified for when the next story drops please let me know!
