The ponderer's gift in the wonders of lands and the marvels of travels, "Salama Arrahala"
Entery #4: Fares, Fahlamais.
In the capital's rich and varied streets, Salama stumbles into souk Da'ak, the poets market, and accidentally enters an improvisation competition. The goal is to impress Al Yamama, a pragmatic scholar and scientist who does not believe in the romantic philosophy of the arts. Salama, flustered, recites an ancient sonnet from her tribe passed down by her mother. The novelty wins Al Yamama's favour, beating Badr ibn Amma Al-maghribi, the Sultan's sha'ir and the best in the trade, making Salama, allegedly, his rival.
Al Yamama, mesmerised by her apparent skill, hosts Salama during her stay in Fares, in exchange for a poem every night. Being that she isn't a poet, Salama seeks help from Badr. Every night, Salama recites a poem; every day, Badr writes a new one, growing more complex and sentimental. At the end of her stay, Al Yamama professes her love for her, only further complicated by Badr's own feelings, leaving Salama with a few hard decisions to make.
#my art#fennec.art#fennec.origin#ocs#original art#oc art#original character#my ocs#traditional dress#“badr ibn amma” means moon son of servant-taken based off of a lampoon poem he reclaimed. “Al-maghribi” means he who is from the west#al Yamama is the noun dove as a reference to her fair skin/ irl reference to zarqa al yamama a folktale about a woman with sharp sight#arrahala means the traveler (f.) and Daak means chatter#Shakespearean shenanigans but make it those travelogue books from the old world. salama is based off of ibn battuta :)#Badr's attire is a tunisian keswa+jebba. al yamama is in armenian taraz and salama is in generalised hijaz clothing from ~ late antiquity#for everything except the tunisian stuff take my interpretation with a grain of salt as im not as familiar with them

Local divorcee spending his 10 year wedding anniversary gnawing on the homewrecker's back
#oc art#original art#original charater art#original story#ocs#my art#fennec.art#fennec.origin#they are freaking abnormal!!!#there's only so many times i can reiterate the dynamics here BUT how can i not theyre fucking freaks!!#the marriage didnt impload specifically cus of andre they were severely toxic on their own. but also. seb TRIED TO KILL ANDRE#thats a pretty significant catalyst for juliette to get that divorce#only reason she doesnt get as much scrutiny is the fact that she lived with these 2 fucks for 8 years#none of them are good people but its hard to focus on like. infidelity and attatchement issues#when there's a fucking cannibal killer on the loose#anyway André is fully capable of escape he did it before he likes this. fucking freak#i use freak a lot i mean it lovingly theres nothing i love more than freak behaviour#alright whatever if you read this i love you xoxo

What're the odds of having the only two alcoholic gay guys on the job driving the same truck cross country? I dont think it'd be an issue nothing can go wrong
#fennec.art#fennec.origin#ocs#original art#they are not really together. julien the short haired one is way more invested than André (aro)#also julien kind of takes advantage of André while they're both drunk. which obviously is not remotely okay but andre chooses to look past#cus like whats there to do? hes spent all this time building rapport he's outed himself (trans) to him. its '77 and he doesn't have options#its a painful situation thats perpetuated mostly by André's below underground self esteem#he doesnt actually ever like. assert himself. it just fizzles out at some point cus julien gets tired not having his feeling reciprocated#(not André’s issue) so he leaves once he finds true love or w/e. and André just has to deal with it#i haven't drawn in ages don't judge me

Takeda Mizuki (codename "Merlin") is a 29 year old corporate accountant who was discovered, by accident, to have a suit of terribly powerful abilities; faced with an ultimatum, she joins HAWK to train her powers and help their world-saving mission, but mostly to not be sent to prison.

Marwa Bziwech & Charles Monet; a pair of law students who gave up stuffy suits to be paranormal investigators together in the neboulous pre war era of French protectorate-Beylik Tunisia. They hate each other.
#my art#fennec.art#fennec.origin#ocs#original art#historical fiction#could a butch woman and gay man really fall in love? (trick question they're both aro. as always)#charles is a trust fund pretty boy coasting off a fat inheritance from his grandmother#he's autistic in that bbc sherlock way where he's an asshole but ppl like him somehow??#marwa is a very angry rebel who's just barely composed herself in order to exist in society#they have to mentor a weirdo teenager who has the fate of nations in his hands. they just barely keep their sanity

Consuming my ex-wife's ex-boyfriend uncritically and perpetuating problematic stereotypes about cannibalism
#diversity win!! the serial cannibal and domestic abuser is bisexual!#what if i shared my personal stuff with yall... what then#these are the boysssss; sebastian (eater) and andré (meat)#they are far more sick than what this simple image may convey but this is the culmination of 10 years of absolute insanity#the orgasmic high of finally getting to satiate your hunger after a long fast with a decadent meal#which will be followed by a terrible crash but we dont talk about it#please ask me about them :) i promise to be normal :)#my art#my ocs#original art#fennec.origin#fennec.art

Hard conversation
#lilie knows her brother as a very brash person with a horrid attitude and little care for ppl's feelings#so it baffled her just how many people took advantage of him. he didnt say no but they didnt ask. he never learned how to deny#he feels small and insignificant cus no one sticks around unless they wanna fuck him#and he's never challanged that notion because#what if that really is all he's good for? Who'll stick around if he demands more?#He's always been “the other woman”#he can't go around asking for emotional intimacy#my art#fennec.art#fennec.origin#original art#ocs
