I think my fic where Xander accidentally becomes a successful novelist (largely without realizing it) is the funniest idea I’ve ever had. This guy started writing little stories to remember their adventures in Sunnydale (his last line in Chosen about “how will anyone even know about this unless we tell them” burrowed itself into my little archivist brain and won’t let go) and posts them online. He unintentionally goes viral. He thinks someone named Simon N. Schuster is leaving him voicemails. He ends up on the New York Times bestseller list.
He doesn’t even realize that everyone else thinks the stories are fiction. Xander is out here writing autobiographical non-fiction but everyone else thinks he’s a weirdly dedicated author that’s really committed to maintaining a Lemony Snicket style pseudonym/persona for the narrator of his novel. There are “Who Is Xander Harris?” articles. No one can dig up much of anything on him because he lived his whole life in a town that got wiped off the map. He keeps rejecting requests for interviews because of his stage fright. At first this drives his publicist absolutely ballistic but it just adds the the air of mystery that’s drumming up book sales so she lets it go.
He only responds to questions over email and only ever responds “in character” as his “novel’s narrator” and this baffles everyone, only adding to the supposed mystery. It’s literally not even Xander actually writing the emails 95% of the time. It’s Dawn. She has appointed herself as “Xander’s representation” even though she doesn’t really know what being someone’s representation means. She printed business cards.

haunted that lestat is like 21 yrs old leading a society. the other vampires should’ve iced his ass years ago on basic principle. well… i guess they tried several times but like a roach he persevered. I feel like they keep him around bc he’s the only one bringing interesting events to the community he’s like a human soap opera he’s like the personification of Murphy’s law. like he should be sucking and fucking his way across the globe having the vampire equivalent of a spring break trip to malibu as god intended but instead he’s doing paperwork and ruling a society….that’s cruel and unusual punishment for him AND the society like that is NOT his natural environment……..they should put him down humanely….send him to a nice farm upstate where all the other problem-causers run free in the fields etc but no he has the endurance capacity of a New York City roach with immortality to match and he just keeps getting more powerful and more manic-pixie-dream-girled so vampiric society gives up on trying to squash that gay bug and instead puts him in a jar to observe in captivity because the bug is easily the most thing to happen to their society in centuries. he’s like the sliced bread of vampires they’re like what did we even DO before lestat???????? and none of them can even answer because the worlds two oldest living vampires are ALSO obsessed with him. I’d tell them to get well soon but it’s just unrealistic at this point

Pen doodles from yesterday and then digital for today
Katale and Rudyard but as little crime babies. Since he's known her for a while and just thought she looked like a little street thug despite being higher ranking than him in the crime organization at first, the cat-ear hairstyle was just A Thing for her. And it spawned the nickname he would use in private of "Kitty" and even when she grows her hair out and he grays even more he still calls her Kitty in private. They're literally just bffs who do crime and what more can you want of them??

Red Guy being deluded with his crush on Duck is equally funny, me thinks
Just this feral full on rabies man Duck who commits war crimes and Red’s delusional ass goes “he is so dreamyyyyy ❤️❤️❤️”
HE'S GOT THEEE WORST TASTE AND I WILL STAND BY THAT FOREVER.
Like, Red has got his issues, but you could see why people would like him. Sooo many people have/had a crush at him at one point it's unreal. NO ONE FEELS THAT WAY ABOUT DUCK GDGDF
THERE'S SO MUCH WRONG WITH HIM... FOR GODS SAKE LOOK AT HIM.
look at his PANTS LEG

he xuan is much more of a standard tragic antagonist but i’m kicking my legs up in bed giggling thinking about him tbh. he’s iago plotting to take down the court from the inside with his carefully constructed scheme—but also he’s cady heron getting a pretty pretty makeover by the most popular girl in school. he and hua cheng are “not friends”—but they can do the best friend thing where they make eye contact across the room and one person starts yelling SHUT UP, SHUT THE FUCK UP while the other doubles over laughing. he’s such a formidable villain but he does not have a shred of dignity to speak of because the object of his revenge decided out of nowhere that they were besties, and he xuan went and fell in love with them
