What if I was a lonely brooding man but my features softened as I stared at you adoringly?

[sawyerfalksthesilverfox]

I ❤️ self-loathing characters, characters who struggle with monstrosity (either fearing or embracing it), characters who are so lonely, who have a gaping hole in their chest, who bottle up & repress their feelings, who claw their way up & have ambitions, who fall down & lose everything, who search for identity & purpose yet can’t see themselves outside of what others want from or expect of them, who are hurt & hurt others, who long & grieve, who lie & pretend. characters who are messy & flawed & human

This concept absolutely works. It could be played for laughs, but then has grounding moments of sobering clarity with loss and grief, rebirth through love, and so many other things.

Demeter also can go back to the roots (pun!) of the story as well: she was a woman wronged because no one would help her when her daughter was kidnapped and was not actually a villain [many retellings rework her to be overbearing and callous] - in this concept, she is also not a villain, just a woman wronged by her daughter's untimely and hurting severely, coping in an unhealthy way but doing her best.

Love the breath of fresh air (pun!) that this would have for such a classic tale! Goddess of Rebirth, Queen of the Underworld!

Not to mention, a zombie as an underworld god isn't unheard of. After all, Osiris in Egyptian mythology was a zombie.

I'm tired of Hades being the creepy one on the relationship

AU where Persephone is a zombie. She died too young and her mom couldn't bear to let her go and breathes a wisp of life into her every morning to keep her almost-not-quite alive by her side. This is a little uncomfortable for Persephone, but she's an adaptable type, so she rolls with it.

Hades kidnaps her because she's *already dead*, hello, did she get lost? It's an unkindness to leave a soul wandering. Turns out he wildly misread the situation and now he's got an annoyed and amused zombie houseguest causing all kinds of trouble while she waits for her mom to come knocking.

Also Persephone thinks the underworld is fucking awesome (*way* more comfy than being dead in the living world) and Hades is stupid-cute and pretty soon she's working out an elaborate plot to timeshare.

Comfort session for a sad ghost man, it's your turn

Could you possibly do a #4 of Mercykill? <3 It's my favorite ship ever <3

I could, and I have. <3  #4 nuzzle kiss

[sawyerfalksthesilverfox]

Back! on! my! BULLSHIT!!

I don’t normally do age differences, unrequited angsty pining or any of that rot, but damn if it doesn’t just work for me with the headcanon of Mercy being just perpetually tired and so over it, and yet somehow still not entirely bitter.

So I was kind of thinking about Ang having a sort of innocent crush on Gabe in early days when she’s young and idealistic and he’s older and handsome and so dangerous.  And then, you know, fifteen, twenty years pass by and she’s older and jaded and a little cynical and she has known entirely too many dangerous men.  

But she’s loved him the whole time - now more than ever.  Not because he deserved it.  Maybe just because he needed it.  Who knows.

Anyway, at this point, Mercy is so far past giving any fucks that all historical records of the last fuck she gave have been lost to the ravages of time.  He might as well know.

Will it end in tragedy or is there somehow still hope for them???

How about mercykill #4? 👀

Even though this was weeks and weeks ago, here is a Mercykill shut-up-and-kiss-me kiss!

[sawyerfalksthesilverfox]

The year is 2020. On a planet ravaged by disaster and disease, I’m the last person alive drawing Mercykill.  You find my desolate mountain cave after many months of searching.  I press my Witch AU sketches into your hands with gnarled, trembling fingers.  “Happy Halloween,” I rasp.

[sawyerfalksthesilverfox]

A mercykill sketch for 2019 <3

[sawyerfalksthesilverfox]

The longing in this sketches is doing me in

So this was a prompt request that was anonymous, and it was for a returned from the dead kiss with Mercykill.  So, this is a little off-topic but I was thinking again of that Rat King/Fallen King and Sugarplum Fairy AU I doodled way back and it seemed to fit.  Here, both of them have come back from the brink, in different ways, probably saved each other, bloody delicious.  It’s just me up to my same old tricks once again, but too bad, I draw what I like <3

I do try to make mine individuals, but they always seem to wind up with some sort of self-esteem issue. Poor things have a hard time loving themselves...

*pats my OCs gently on their noggins* No worries, my babies. I already love you, and I'll write a story to help you learn to love yourself.

Do you have patterns when it comes to OCs? For example, always making them tall or dark eyed

[sawyerfalksthesilverfox]

Just You and Me, let's spend the night together....

[sawyerfalksthesilverfox]

You, me and the 🔥 within.....

I do not want my fantasy media to be realistic. I want my fantasy media to be convincing.
