still collecting images for icons, which i’ll hopefully start cropping tonight finally, oof
but i came across this beauty again, as a result
lmao a pervert with loose screws and a brother complex;;
way to sum vince up I guess haha
YUP, leave it to leo not to sugar coat it
yeah, given he was about to lick his boots and got off on being kicked, I think that's a good description LMAO
yup, at least he’s living his best life there
also fun to think about, he styled leo and cut his hair... probably echo too. including himself, that’s three cast designed by vince hahaha
four, if you include gil i guess, tho he’d probably protest that
>gilmintymatcha in case you missed it this morning!
gil actually wanting to know what trouble vince has been up to... gasp
clearly he needs to become a hairdresser on the side LOL
and personal stylist! lmao
at least he can help his cr keep up their current ‘dos
I would say he could do vani, but I don't think he'd let anybody do more than a simple trim....
he must wear that disaster of a do for a reason LOL
lmao vince would probably insist that he keeps it anyway, that’s his disaster
oh good, at least he knows how to appreciate uniqueness haha
ofc he seems to love weirdos the most
you get it
>vanistartlingly on topic... also, vani, you’re asking the wrong questions if you really don’t wanna know lmaooo
>aethervince pleasantly surprised by how nonchalant aether is about torture/murder... and also mad all over again because they apparently drugged people (thus aether and big bro) before he arrived? hell nah
That Weird Sexual Tension With Leo Part 1...
ooo now I need to find the other one
The one that really makes me go "What would happen if Elliot found out about this..." XD
kaitodoushi: idk i have a feeling that it would involve some yelling 🤔 hmmm
omg... looking for the image in question and came across a post, “I was reading pandora hearts omake translations and one of them turned into a deep analysis of Leo and Vincent's sex life together.”
hahaha i know exactly the one they’re talking about
don't you hate it when you can't find something? I've been trying to find a page of vnc where vani goes on about french pastries/ desserts....
YEAH... like, I know I’ve seen it here somewhere fuuuck
Well, what doesn't involve yelling with Elliot?
What exactly would he yell at whom is what I'm really curious about, I suppose XD
LEO, YOU CAN DO SO MUCH BETTER???
gosh elliot... at least someone was up to the task!!
ok, found different components but no scanlation huff
Text Box (Leo's Thoughts): 'The first time I touched a piano was after my mother had died and I was transferred to the House of Fianna. Why did I feel happy to do that? All of the adults around me cheered on my ability but...'
Leo's Thoughts: 'That wasn't right...It was more like...'
Text (Leo's Thoughts): 'Like a memory of someone within me was teaching me how to play---...'
Text Box (Leo's Thoughts): 'And then, I met Elliot.'
Text Box (Leo's Thoughts): 'And we reached a point where, between the two of us, we would play one song together. But since you left this place, I lost my left arm. I...can no longer play the keys like I used to before---
Leo: "Hah..."
Leo: "Huh..."
Vincent: "Don't stop. Come now, you have to keep your eyes on the sheet music."
Leo: "..Hah…Hah….What the..."
Vincent: "
Yes?"
Leo: "You can play the piano?"
Vincent: "Yes, but only a little bit."
Vincent: "There were occasions where Elliot taught me how to. I cannot play it nearly as well as he did.... But please allow us to play it together again sometime, Master."
Leo: ".
.....Lousy."
Vincent: "Eh!"
Leo: "You're so clumsy! The rhythm was completely off!
And the keys were all wrong!"
SFX: gata -clattering- ga~n -shock-
Vincent: "Ah, well, yes, it has truly been ages since I touched...
Leo: "No excuses!! If you want to play it together with me, then practice more! Get better! If you do that then..."
Leo: "It might...be possible for us to play it together again!"
SFX: nima -amused smile-
Vincent: "Ufufu. Master..you really do love me, don't you. Fufufufu."
Leo: "Huh...? What are you talking about? You want me to kill you?"
Vincent: "Ahh, yes, that's so good! Those eyes filled with such contempt! More! Please do more things like that to me, Master!"
SFX: gofuuu-cough- [Note: I think this is more like a "| just lost my breath because I was hit in the stomach" type of cough, not just like a normal cough or anything.]

and i’ve never seen this page translated lmao
this is the same translation that has the breakdown of their sexual relationship too hahahahdhdkf
vince you are a character haha;;;
yuuup... i guess leo just brings out this side of him
this translator also took the time to note this tho;
“Oh, also, Vincent speaks using keigo, polite Japanese, humble forms, and etc. I love it when male characters speak using this kind of language. I have no idea why though, it just sounds nice to my ears (or looks nice to my eyes, in the case of manga).]”
which is VERY USEFUL because even the official translators make him sound more casual than he is
Oh man yes. Little things like that can really make a difference.
yeah, vince strikes me as the sort who's respectful ...until it doesn't suit him haha
yuuuup. i let him slip up a little around big bro sometimes, or when he’s manic lmao
that seems appropriate for him heh

ty i hope sooo
HOOBOY... finally got my thread count in, and requested two pairs of locator earrings (one set for himself and vani, and another set for himself and gilbert... but cuffs! A CUFF for gil )
he's still sitting at just under 500.... i could save it, or i could get him a second soul hmmmm
maybe i'll save it in case housing is approved, then cash it out for big money lol
he's potentially getting some new traits soon anyway, so i can be patient lol
if you need help with housing points i might have enough points? i’d need to count
mintymatcha: ooo, that would be awesome! i imagine they'll need to pool a fair amount of $$$ for housing, especially if they can get that cafe
also, yes, pls enjoy your new gift gilbo
speaking of, vincent is.... being weird and threatening again, big surprise. but in a sweet way???
noe & vaniand same here tbh. guess it's a themed sort of day. but noe has requested to drink some more of vince's yucky dying blood, and vince has finally brough the tarte tatin he promised weeks ago lol. vani started with the aura tho!!
Maybe they can kill people together
Captcha Check nsfwwait, i guess this one isn't threatening, just. obsessive.
normally he wouldn't want gil to get his hands dirty if he doesn't have to, but he's sure bro needs some revenge after all that sooo
yesss

need
s1n: Vincent: Go on master, punch as hard as you like!
Leo: Ugh...?! You...!!
Vincent: Go on!!!
What is this?
You don't know? Master Vincent really wants to get punched and at the same time Mister Leo wants to punch him as hard as he can, but he also knows that this is what Master Vincent wants so he stops himself.
In turn, Master Vincent enjoys his reactions. That kind of setting.
...What??
the writing was so small so that bulk of text may not be 100% accurate since I couldn't see some of the kanji xD
>verso & vaniin which vince gets the wrong idea and imprinting makes shit go even more sideways

so here for this hehe
That's Noise and who?
lombardia: hehehe

i was gonna try to sleep, and then i was like, nah this is Important
The clothes/hair make me think Sharon but that's kinda weird?
I was also thinking Sharon
kaitodoushi: I’m pretty sure that is Sharon and Lottie, but I couldn’t tell you why Sharon is there....
I guess everyone just hangs now idek... but like......
LOL yeah, I know that feeling;; I had to nap earlier since groceries were coming, otherwise I would've been on it quicker;;
that’s the dude that kidnapped and poisoned her, isn’t that just a liiittle weird lmfao
lombardia: omg no, don’t feel bad

i’m glad you got some rest-- and food!!
i’m just excitable with poor impulse control these days
haha same, man, same :' ) I sit here staring at the inbox like "has it come yet? has the tag arrived yet??"
omg I know that feeling too well
checking inbox every 5 seconds....
just so eager and excited lmao;;
Ah true, if it's canon I guess they'd both be alive ffffff
it is! pretty sure anyway
The comic is, I was thinking of just the sketch
gaaasp... response from the mods!
‘Hello there! You're right on time with this one, as this is absolutely where things are headed: it's very likely that, given the current reflection of Reputation and the trends of it all, especially after the recent... events, that characters will be given far more leeway for things than before, the ability to start up a business included.‘
‘Come the next month, characters will likely be given the ability to start one such business, and other avenues of employment (including more generously-paid employment) may become more heartily available. Our current skeleton of a TDM/Event post includes a prompt about businesses and employment as well, which will address this shift in Karterian attitude. ‘
‘Thus, we will be adjusting our business pages and the like in preparation for Novembertimes. Stay tuned...! (Which is to say that yes, your characters will be able to do this as soon as this change is implemented!)’
Probably because Sharon loves shipping
YEAH. exciting time ahead!
... when you get a tag and just say aloud, ‘not vani in the cuck chair’
also, my heart is on the fritz today, so i might be slower than usual at getting around to stuff
thank yooou, i’m doin my best
they really are sob... hopefully yours will behave soon <3
i sure hope so! i’ve been resting all day in an attempt to appease it
it should totally recognize that and behave...!
time to lobby for better treatment from bodies!!
i don’t suppose you ever found that contact information in order to lodge a complaint??
i have some words to send upstairs
I think it's next do to santa.... which would explain a lot
i’ve rested sooo much. i’ve slowed down a bit and am about to shower... so, doing other self care things!
tho i might squeeze in one more fight tag first... lmao
Shower and take care of yourself, yes!

thank you, my darlings. your concern means a lot
Tags will still be there after your shower. I just hope things improve for you.
yay for self care! showers are great
def take care of yourself!
showers
are pretty dang great... i shall enjoy it

!!
i got nooothing done tonight... i’m only able to focus on like one thing at a time. sorry folks.
have lots of really amazing tags that i’m looking forward to tomorrow tho
i did my best!! my body is still being very fussy today, but i’m pushing through
gonna be another slow day, and i’m thinking that i should try to do icons today... which i’ve been saying for like weeks now lmfaofhdk
>aether & vaniidk how i missed this last notif, go me... i probably got excited and read it while half asleep or something
BUT ANYWAY, vince getting all sentimental and shit-- while with two of three people that he can do this with, i guess it was bound to happen
take it easy if you need to! and lol soft vince~

i wiiillll, i’ll just do a gentle tag sweep and then some cherry picking today, i think
yes... his squishy center is showing
i’m glad for this imprinting system, i really get to take advantage of all of vincent’s facets lmao
he has so many delicious ones, it's true haha
Imprinting is so good yes

yesss so fun to play
IT IS, to think that i was hardly thinking about it when i applied lmao
now you get to do all sorts of fun things with it!
gosh yes. especially now that he’s formed solid enough bonds to show aggression hehehe
rubs my grubby little paws together yes good
yeee every excuse for vince to be a lil shit is a welcome one
very much so~ let him be free and live his best worst life hahasdklf
he really truly is... never gonna be a dull moment
>vani nsfwand vince bottoming, a first for me lmao ....
>noe and vanimore feedin time... another instance of ‘what’s it gonna do, kill me? lol’
it does remind me that i will be needing to crack down on the body horror aspect of vincent’s corruption with dying and all
None of these three have like. Any sense of self-preservation at all, do they???
i figure the baskerville aspect of it all is going to keep him looking nice and shiny on the outside, but he’s going to be feeling like someone is scooping out his insides with a hot knife
MAN, they really are, aren’t they......
he only mentions it here and there in the most casual way too

except maybe to echo, he doesn’t worry about her caring lmao
Vincent. Buddy, Ignore that he will go through the same thing. The dying.
YUP... he might actually be inclined to help noé with that-- or just say nothing and watch it happen, depending LMAO
why is everybody around vani dying?? geez! he thought he was the one falling to pieces!
wait, did noé die during testing? that might actually bypass that whole process for him
Either way, he will prob try to ignore it and not worry anyone because it's him. Sorry Vani.
sheesh. vince could offer to end his suffering

with permission from the bae of course
ksjfgk yeah, good luck with that conversation....
there will be no stabbing of his vampire, thank you!!!
I mean, not unless it's what Noe wanted.......
She'll care as much about you as you care about her, Vince.....
hahaha i mean, die slowly instead, whatever. he’s just being nice
definitely. it isn’t like he wants to be worried over, it’s just part of the corruption thing, and it isn’t like he doesn’t deserve it

yeah. I can't see Vani taking the idea well regardless.
True. She's really just sticking around for her own reasons.
lack of life experience is a pretty big one. poor echo
Yep... ;; Things I really must fix...
i mean, that kind of thing take a while... she’ll get there lol
lmaooo so i’ve been playing with the fact that Vincent might know french, seeing as the fandom has more or less accepted their setting as fictional France.....
what think you, fellow pandoras?
the impression I got was always that it's fictional victorian england but it would be an interesting twist ovo
there’s definitely influence of both, that’s for sure
could always have it that he knows a fictional french/english language and so can pick up some things from french
I could see something like that. Yeah. It's got similarities enough???
yeah! my initial idea was that perhaps french and english were the prevailing languages of their continent, given the names of their cities and such
sablier, for example, meaning hourglass in french
i’ve had him respond to snippets of french with some understanding before, but he’s also just good at reading context in general lol
tho the idea of not responding directly but knowing it tickles me. he seems like the type that would just listen and play along until the right opportunity comes along. then he will go to the effort.
tbh, verso (a lying liar who lies) will be endeared by that. suddenly likes vincent a whole lot more. that's something his older sister would do.
don't go siscon on Vince, for pete's sake;;
siblingcons ftw and such
nah, he won't go siscon on him. that sister is headstrong and fiercely independent, has the weight of the world on her shoulders, vince is too fragile and emotional. she'd never have launched into attacking him like that
verso may yet call vincent fragile and emotional, too.
i mean. he’d probably agree, too HAHA
he thinks he’s a piece of shit more than anyone else, ain’t gonna defend it
It's like a weird England/France/Japan mashup
the barmas definitely have asian influence, but they’re from that other country that was never named iirc hahaha
verso thinks vani can (and should) do better.
this is probably true but he likes his mess of a lover.... what is his taste even
isn’t vincent’s business, either way. verso isn’t the one feeding him
yeah, when verso finds out vanitas is doing that he's going to have Words. because vanitas isn't the immortal one here.
vince probably wouldn't be enthusiastic about verso feeding him tho
oh, he isn’t literally feeding on him, he isn’t the vampire here haha... but i’ve yet to fully decide on his corruption noms, so that could change who knows
he wouldn’t turn down chomping on people he doesn’t like either way, just wouldn’t be very nice about it hahaha
... they should absolutely accidentally negative emotion imprint that way
oh man, i’d love that hahaha
plz bite him vince, he's into that haha
Not Noe over there like but I want to nom.
poor Noe haha... the forbidden treat....
Pouting as he devours his beloved tarte tatin
maybe Vani can accidentally bleed on it for him lmao
and he knows vani
Yeah I def see it as a mix of fantasy victorian england and france rather than one or the other uwu
i thiiink that i’ve more or less decided on ‘misfortune’ being his noms, aka agonies of various flavors. can stimulate/enter nightmares, but also etc grievances for daytime fun, like annoyances up to full blown torture. because ofc.
and ‘eating’ them takes them away, effective placating the target, but also ruining some of his fun if used for purposes of torment lol
and maybe just being about to enjoy blood and fleshy bits for snacks, if he so chooses, because demon
oh, then verso will be a great food source for him.
verso has been alive for 100 years and has been suicidal for approximately 60 of those years, maybe longer.
he really really wants to die. thought he found his chance, instead discovered dying in karteria is worse than his not-death of back home.
they could empathize on that at least
vani's just gonna stare at them if verso becomes dinner for vince haha
was vince taken for the horrors? because actually that's another point that will get verso easing up on him a little. he knows exactly the kinds of things people will do to test immortality
nope, he did raise hell trying to get to vani and his big bro tho
tortured some pghq folk and fully torched the tunnels
so probably docking extra point there hahaha
Gotta shove my 2 cents in here rq. If vincent ever feeds off of break, i feel like break would like use the memory of him hating vincent to help him pretend he’s still upset (his ears would give him away)
nah, tbh. he's more chill with torturing people who a) aren't immortal b) are keeping them from friends who could be going through who knows what
he does have an aversion to fire though.
keimay: oooh, that’s a good way to go about it... tho what would he do if he ate that negative emotion too!! he’s fucked lol
icqt: oh cool... and so does vincent, he traumatizes himself every time he’s used it so far lmfao
> verso & vanii’m laughing that vince keeps getting dragged to meals and functions that he can’t eat at hahaha
are you cool with clair obscur spoilers btw? there are minor ones like "verso is a main character" and "verso is immortal" but there's some Bigger things too.
oh yeah! not a problem at all, i think it’s just as fun to discover this things through cr
vince needs to point out that he can't eat shit so vani will stop trying to thrust food at him haha
he might eventually... or he could continue to sit around food he can’t eat while he starves, it’s fiiine
self punishing weirdo that doesn’t want sympathy lol
he's gonna get something besides sympathy when vani finds out....
oh yeah?
get that ponytail pulled, probably >/
though vince might like that huh....
he can’t help but be what he is
an entertaining weirdo (says the equally weird guy)
which is why they get along sooo splendidly
really, the worst way to punish him is how gil reacted already lmao
just... absolutely lost his shit
uh oh;; poor gil freaked out huh?
yeaaah, to put it lightly lol
vince can be one of his trigger points, depending on the situation
the bros got issues lol;; though it's entirely understandable
just a little bit

they did get pretty boned in that dept
s1n: can he eat memories of a negative emotion? if he could break would probably just...stop hating vincent
well, the idea is to eat the feeling itself, not the memories!
tho you know what, he would probably leave that alone, he likes it too much
i can see him maybe trying it once and be like, wtf am i doing no
break must retain his suffering
he can always cause more but 🤔 logic
>gilmurder brooos

vincent is about to live his best life, bonding with all his important people through violence uwu
you mean that isn't the best way of going about it??
vince would imagine so, but he’s used to working alone! (and with echo)
too bad, vince! time to get social~!
social? ew. but with his chosen people, that’s fine
haha they are so alike...
they can frump in corners together
he dislikes even small gatherings, he was only at gilbert’s party so big bro didn’t crash out
sometimes you gotta put up with social butterflying for the sake of those you love~
he’s apparently quite popular at social functions, he just judges everyone ruthlessly lmfao
LMAO the eye of judgement be upon ye;; that's great
he keeps it to himself typically, but now he and vani can snark together
that they can omg... the catty bitch bros LOL
aether will drag them to all the parties
oh aether, you sweet innocent soul....
calling him innocent after all that happened hahaha
oh no... lmao cue internal screaming
well, he's still sweet at least??
vanitas has been teaching him how to dance, so dance with him!!!
yes good make vince dance that would be great
cute... if it would appease Aether
if we’re talking traditional waltz and the such, sure. otherwise, he’s out lol
obviously he wouldn't keep them there for too long, he doesn't want them to be unhappy haha
yes, Vanitas is teaching him all traditional slow dances
trying to picture vince doing anything BUT is breaking my brain LOL
electric slide? a tango?? the bunny hop?!
he wouldn’t want to bail on aether either, he’d probably just haunt the outskirts lmao literally
I think vince would combust on principle alone
witnesses the souja boy for the first time, leaves
Aether would just... do everything
he would be bad at it but he would do it
twerk for them, that’s pretty good on principle
he has some shame I guess
it's okay, vani will be right there beside vince, linefacing at anything too perky
hahaha they’ll survive together

here he is, doing a dance with noe. you can see how thrilled he is
HAHA he’ll do it, but he won’t like it
two sour grapes just ruining the fun haha
there might be a chance as long as they’re entertaining each other enough lmao
if not they can always go entertain themselves by snogging in a closet askldjf
also very likely, truly... hahaha
‘where did they go?’ ‘don’t.’
HAHA yes;; everybody learns quickly to not ask when they both vanish....
and then once everyone gets used to them getting their freak on, they can pull a fast one and be hiding playing chess or something lmao
and it’s better they wear themselves out than whatever other trouble they could get up to
they definitely need to start pulling stupid little pranks together, too good
i haven’t slept so i screencapped some more manga, and just look at these babies
before shit hit the fan, alas!

and then there is this very suspect panel regarding their past, courtesy of gil regaining his memories
which would explain A Lot, but never see addressed

understandably, i guess
oh dear... yeah, that'd do it sob
mochijun really went down the checklist in these two
>vani & versowe’ve probably been eating people... so, anyway, you guys were hungry
(and yeah, sad and tragic mochijuns whodathunk hahaaa)
if Noe wasn't so dense, Vani would tell him to smack him with his lips lmao
not Vani asking about the food.....don't tell him he won't be able to have his beloved desserts.....!!!
Hahaha just headbutts him with his mouth
His headbutts are very effective this is true
he's headbutted Vani before... it's effective
Noe headbutt is just this
He will be so upset at no more tarte tatin......
maybe he can be a vampire that can eat regular food after having blood....
His adoptive little brother was always doing weird shit like that, and his master is no better, he’d just be like the fuck
But the regular food is people!
haha;; people are food in every sense of the word now...
yup... vincent isn’t that bothered but he isn’t eating it so
>vani nsfwvincent finally realizes, huh, i typically don’t even like cats tbh... this one is pretty great tho so his eyes are safe
hopefully Vani is hypoallergenic haha
but that’s definitely not what I meant
vincent uh. carved out cheshire’s eyes and killed him to get back at alice when they were kids.
.......wow okay vince, you don't like cats!! that's cool!!!!
most cats
as long as he likes him, that's enough haha....
yeahhh, he’s safe from his scissors

they’ve already established that at least!
bbrrrooooo i’m having a nasty case of the “I’M SO BAD AT WRITING”s tonight, why are brains like this
nooo you aren't~ though I feel you when the brain doesn't cooperate sob
it flared up yesterday, but i thought some rest would fix it huff
o-oh

i didn’t expect..... thank you

always listen to your friends over your brain. the brain lies
my friends are the best

!!!!
we are!!! or well, we try to be
the brain lies, it's true
>aetheroffering to let vince try his blood, and see if that works for feeding him

and ofc vince has to be lewd about it... aether blushes, and he thinks, hell yea still got it
LMAO vince plz control yourself you filthy flirt
aether like "I have made a mistake"
also... looks at vani
LMAO RIGHT?? so sayeth the dirty flirty man himself
he knows it's too late sigh
aether then: "I have everything under control"
aether now: "I have nothing under control"
one day he'll pin Vincent down or something bhjdfbv
Aether can be sweet and love on him up top while Vani takes care of the downstairs alksdfl
that would certainly be a one up to the teasing planned lmao
but also I love how Aether is like "please don't tease me!!" but he also loves teasing
haha aether you silly boy
making Vanitas blush was wonderful ok
is it any wonder they're all trolls... delicious blushes
he just needs to figure out how to get Vincent to blush too lol
Vince is Hard Mode probably
hahaha yeah pretty much. without the imprinting thing, it wouldn’t be too hard, but they’re screwed there
aether like "this is fine"
he will figure something out!!
keep swinging until the hit lands
lmaooo verso..... vincent attacked you, but this is how he always treats vani, my man...!!
definitely can see how it might be seen that way lmao
Vani's just like "....huh. is it a problem....?"
like, he doesn't mind? so it should be fine??
verso minds!! vanitas is important to him, and the disrespect and possessiveness vincent has shown in the checks watch TWENTY MINUTES since they met is alarming.
but like, he was going to run away for a bit until his temper cooled down and he could engage in conversation like a rational human being and not risk turning into a monstrous hell beast in the middle of breakfast.
(which is what he thinks is the normal response is when you inadvertently turn into a hell beast)
haha... Vani doesn't know when to leave well enough alone sometimes. or rather, he hopes he can quell Verso's ire... probably NOT but. he's trying
he will dote on vani either way, but if it pisses him off, even better
trying to set him off with pet names and flirtations via magic tricks, two can play at that game !!
meanwhile, me sitting on the sidelines going 'fight fight fight' LOL
part of me is like "gee, they could go at each other and Vani could get caught in the middle..."
idk if vince could do that, the obsession is a lil too strong in this one
hehe he's got it bad, huh?
is... is that an actual question
....more an observation really
but yea he would do all the things to make sure vani doesn’t die, despite his initial desire to do the stabby
just short of neglecting gilbo ofc
that trauma bond runs deep lmao
d'aw... that's sweet~ and of course Gil should get top priority. he's the bro~
bro...
(tho lmk if vince needs to be peeled back a lil for real, he’s a lot)
> doesn't want vani to die
> continues provoking the man who told him ten minutes ago he levelled an area the size of the valentia last time he shifted
nobody said they were smart.....
vani's right up there with doing stupid shit like that lmao
nope. plus, he started poking, he was at least hoping verso would put out a lil more before bailing
vince and vani both prod with the intention of getting something out of it haha...
right... it’s a way of communicating... a love language, if you will
vince will introduce verso to break so he can learn his ways, and come back when he’s ready to really play
reminds me of the time Vani wanted to get Xiao angry
verso is legit terrified of hurting vani is the thing. he has no idea what level of control he'll have when shifted and not dead. he's about to be surprised he can actually talk.
aether: "this guy will literally kill you"
vanitas: "oh ok" continues to annoy xiao vfbhdvf
Vani respects Verso's restraint tho....
at least Vani can use himself as a human blockade if need be? haha...
vince would take one, but vani is a no go
sometimes it sucks to be a mere human (cat boy)
so pettable tho

oh yes
tho now that vince has some reason rattling around in his brain, he is much more likely to think / strategize first
which might make him even more dangerous in a way haha....
just gotta hope verso doesn’t get toooo much more aggressive around vani and trigger the animal brain lmao
at this stage, he’s like, I can’t even have fun playing with this guy... if he’s going to cause vani this much trouble, uhm??
(knowing full well he started it hahaha)
haha... meanwhile Vani is like "...geez, I really stuck my foot in it this time, and I didn't even mean to for once??"
it’s especially funny that’s it’s mostly a ton of miscommunications from all parties, they just fucked around with the wrong people
LOL yeah... if it was normal, SANE people, a simple explanation would've cleared it up. instead they keep needling each other...
verso has absolutely no idea that he was effectively baiting vince with the fork and stuff. he just didn't want to be like "yeah I'm back to regular level of immortal now no dying on you." in the public dining area and the pet name was because it ruffles vanitas.
eeeh he wouldn’t buy it,especially since the name kept ruffling his feathers lol
oh absolutely not, vince is not what you might call a rational man. see: baiting the hell beast
but verso genuinely was trying to play nice after he said he would.
that's what vani appreciates. he knows he was trying!
oh dang~ look at it little leggies~
I figure he doesn't get quite as big as Création proper, but probably moose size. def bigger than an elevator.
don't get stuck on the elevator, verso...!
and omg that thing is so cool
isn't it I was so pleased when I realised I could base his shift on it.
it's also thematically appropriate for verso though I'm still tossing up whether verso would know that.
it's from an area he might have been to (and been slaughtered) and so know where it's from and the meaning of that or he might not have reached it at all.
yesss. i love when things are thick with symbolism, so good
aw geez... found a couple embarrassingly old missed tags in my inbox... go me lmfafjk
>law‘what can you do’ ‘not much! my big bro taught me how to use a gun tho!’ funny because it’s half true lmao
very low opinion of himself + compulsion to downplay... very hard to get a straight answer out of him when discussing his strengths
>octavianvery casual discussion involving death while playing trouble
>edelgardjust casually hitting on faceless women via the network

sure she’ll love that one
>ozjust casually fishing for info on break, not because he cares or anything
I love that Vince's version of flirting involves bloodshed lmao
when he can be open about it, absofuckinlutely
if it gets under her skin, even better. he’s especially gross toward the ladies sigh
LMAO vani is the same...... they're cut from the same cloth
no wonder they got on so well from the get go
YUP.. though i see there is drama around the bend

hehehe
HAHA quite possibly... <<
yes indeed hehe;; but hey, vani kept his mouth shut to verso about almost getting stabbed by vince! he's learning
>rowanthey took his bro and his paramour!! but mentioning break would be weird right, how would he even explain that connection. so fuck that guy.
>northlygot him talking about bro... slightly more receptive lol
>northlyuh oh, freak show trauma making an unexpected debut... at least get him naked first
>aetherhe gets to tease aether mercilessly and still nom on him... what a good day
also attempting to consume blood as a food source is useful, but his kink is certainly showing here
>gilgonna TRY to make big bro some breakfast (while he desperately tries to call vani and see if he’s ok)
>vani nsfwhe’s clearly fine with this, but good luck getting him to admit it
>noe & vanisharing some vague details of the tragedy, and battling with the idea of sympathy... at least he can be weird about big bro to deflect
>vanianother episode in vince has got it bad. it’s so funny to me...... bad yucky man bein soff
>vanivince finally using his wings for something other than show... as it turns out, it’s because he doesn’t really care for heights!! but if he haaaas to...
>aetheroop, seems vince got a full meal out of the deal. guess he might figure out this eating thing sooner than later!
he’s really not going to know how to feel about this
he's eating only negative motions?
like, cool, i could probably eat really well like this, but also wow am i a pos
yeah! things related to pain, misery, fear etc etc
ooh i’m so close to clearing out my inbox...
poor sol is going to wake up and be like ‘the fuck’
I needed that for the tag
I'm going to add to that soon as well...
since I wanted to know how the biting will go before throwing Aether at Vanitas
oooh what are they up to?
just some catching up first but I wanted Aether to show up with a bite mark hahaha
"uh oh yeah Vince also bit me..."
last time it was a bite mark from Noe lol
HAHA vani like, i know that mark!!
>vani
this is prob the sweetest part of this dynamic ngl. trying to find acceptance of themselves through each other uuu
YEAH. i mean, vince is personally doing a shit job of accepting himself still but lmao
maybe a little bit hahaha. he’s made it to the ‘as long as YOU think i’m not complete shit’ stage hahaha
just gotta nudge past that a lil
aether is there to help nudge him as well haha
aaaw yes
between the two of them, vince will have not a single chance haha
he’s definitely not going to know what to do with that lmao
he just has to accept it
will he go into full blown internal denial, or just lean into being a terrible shit now that he has people which support it
accepting it might be too easy alas hahaha
>aetherand this is why communication is important, friends
LMAO I welcome the barrage of tags <3
eeexcellent because you sure got em
more things for Aether to talk to Vanitas about
seems they all need to have a Talk. also a good way to tattle on vince for previously starving himself like it’s nbd.
that's the part that's gonna irk vani most haha
vince is so mad at himself for not bringing it up sooner, the doofus
hehe funny thing is, vani wouldn't mind. aether is part of their little polycule now~
just imagining vince texting him to be like "mind if i fuck the sweet angel boi in your absence?" LMAO
vani being all "thumbs up emoji"
aether better never see those messages lmao
Vincent's loyalty towards Vanitas is just earning him more points with Aether haha
he's a bit disappointed but he loves them both too much to be too disappointed about all of this...
aw aether... 8( poor bubs, he will get his share and then some
haha poor vince... he's been through so much, clearly;
but at least mochijun gives him beautiful lips!
right! that one looks so good...
hahaha ikr i can’t wait to color that one
guess i’ll just have to subject him to more terrors so i can take advantage of all these, darn
what a shame! it'll just break our hearts to help torment him 83c
i bet! however will we manage

hehehe
ok nap i think, then gonna start coloring these while hitting more taggies
thank you, darliiiings... as you know, i didn’t end up doing any of that, so i guess i’m gonna be coloring this morning instead lol
rest is most important, after all!
yesss, and i’m sure getting it lately! lol
>aethercuddle time

as vincent skirts over the topic of himself again. good, let’s talk about you, buddy!!
but also Vincent is not going to escape
aether will go back to talking about him haha
also I'm so happy that Aether opens up about his past
too bad we are missing lore info about what exactly happened to Aether and Lumine's world.........
but I'm gonna use whatever we know!!!!

aether lore!!
>gilbrekkie for big bro!! he did his best
reminds me that we should probably work out what happened when vani got back too!! missing so much stuff this month lol
busy busy busy! I'm loving every moment of it haha
>aetheraether’s general experience with people =/= vincent’s experience ... yikes
he wonders what that must be like
to be fair, he was much older than Vincent and Gil were when they were left to fend for themselves

luck was probably also part of it
we don't really know what they went through in other worlds too but they seemed to be doing all kinds of things
yeah... the more vulnerable a person is, the more advantage is taken, unfortunately
but also, vince was viewed as a threat to safety etc, so that’s a big part of it too. just not great much there hahaha
unfortunately never gonna see eye to eye on that one lmfafjfhd
not that he’s shared any of that anywayyy
I mean it's not like he doesn't understand
he's met enough people who were used/seen as threat/literally about to be sacrificed as babies vbjfdbvhf
genshin has a lot of traumatic backstories going on tho i’m not surprised hahaha
>gilman, aren’t they a pair... lmao

got one whole icon done today hahaha
he's beautiful tho~
hehe ty

had to get to that one first obv
the most smoochable lips hehe
mochijun was clearly feeling some type of way while illustrating that chapter. his lips and hair were immaculate lmao
LOL the horny for vince chapter, it seems
oho woke up to some popcorn material this morning
vani playing with fire fr this time hahaha
lol yep, getting it on with verso the same night all that drama went down
they also had a direct conversation about trust hahaha
and vince also gave him an out!! but vani insisted that he wanted to be loved and was working on saying it back (thus implying he did as well)
all the same day, i’m laughing
vani is a disaster, it's true... he wants it all and yet thinks he deserves none of it, so clearly the answer is to sabotage himself...
on the road to self-destruction, burning all his bridges as he goes
i mean, vince won’t be any less infatuated lmao
he’ll just think it’s him!!
will probably start peeling away from his imprints tho
sorry, vince... you got wrapped up with a selfish mess of a man
i mean, it’s hard to feel too bad for the guy lmao
I feel bad for him though!! LOL
hahaha

aw
vince is a traumatized boy who deserves all the love...
i’m shocked he got as far as he did tbh!
having some good ol’ authentic vince is never a bad thing tho
🤔 just might end up having to shift some plans
at least it's not stabby vince? LOL
nah, vani is safe!
a minor disappointment to him, I think LMAO... I swear half the reason he does the shit he does is to goad people into trying to kill him...
hahaha vince has caught on
even if he wanted to, not gonna do you the favor vani!!
damn...! the woe of being perceived...
YUP can’t escape that from vince, alas. especially given that they are so similar lmao
i’ve managed one whole tag this far... anxiety is so bad today, but i am so eager to do the fun stuff dang it!!
my brain just goes, OH GOD DO I EVEN KNOW WORDS

i’m trying to nudge past it for the distraction, so we’ll hopefully get there lol
>aetherthey’re a lovely contrast

aether’s such a sweet soft boy, vince doesn’t know how this happened lmao
(and i think we’re back... managed to get my bpm down and that’s helped a loooot)
I just really love how they pull each other in different directions too haha
also laughing how Vincent got from this far more than he ever thought he would huh hahaha
now all is left is him talking to Vani--
yuuup then it’s fastpass to bonetown, don’t you worry aether
and ac is in!! almost forgot
>gilcan’t just take the praise!!
> edelgardcontinuing to make passes via the network... and it apparently flew right over this gal’s head the first time, so why not keep it rolling because that’s funny right
Verso is being the biggest shit when it comes to vani and vince. He also doesn't know it but it's a little to do with his natural soul, too. Inclined towards testing people.
reminds me that I need Aether to meet Verso too
yeah, vincent’s sure isn’t helping either haha
when you’re up for a new thread, i’m thinking that vince could attempt to smooth things over a bit, since vani mentioned he’d like them to get along so badly lol
if you’re open to it, i may have a vague idea for when things inevitably go south. some torture and noms.
spiritualwhisper: yes!! Honestly aether could be a pretty good influence on verso, help him be less self-destructive
not to mention the devil/angel vibes s1n: And yessssss, I'm listening 👀
perfect. But it would be also funny if they got to meet because of Vince or Vanitas so he could also make that connection
maybe Vince wouldn't been more interesting one since it could lead to all kinds of questions
thinking he could get him bound up with some barbed wire so enlarging via shift = death, and keep him somewhere just out of plain sight so he’ll have some incentive not to just go for it lol
could potentially even be his room, if he can get verso gagged i guess
could torture + eat his misery to keep him complacent enough about it
i mean, what’s he supposed to do, just roll over
wow vince just really going for it huh....
Hmmm, maybe, but verso gets ruminantia shapeshifting and he's starting to work that out after he didn't break the elevator
so thinking it won’t affect his hide or?
and yeahhh, targeting his imprint + spectral wrath, on top of his previous inclinations lol
but he’d at least tryyy to smooth things over first, at least lol
not thinking it would all be the same day, but who knows
more thinking he'd shapeshift smaller so be able to slip out of the wire that way, but if you're good with it not necessarily holding him!
verso is self-destructive but being held and tortured is one of the few things that he won't just lie down and accept
oooh i see! i mean, eh i’m not opposed to it
i was generally thinking about wire around his neck, so any odd shapes might interfere 🤔 tho i guess if he were smol enough, escape would def still be doable
wouldn’t want to suggest anything that’s not comfy for ya tho
yeah, like he'd shift into a fly or ant or something! I'm totally cool with him being bound and tortured, but one of the reasons he is how he is is he was held and tortured to test his immortality (and then he murdered everyone who did that to him) so keeping him in that situation is tricky
oooh, i didn’t realize they had that ok. that definitely makes it more tricky lol. guess that idea is out.
it sounds so sus
i may have thought about another ‘solution’ for verso, but this one is especially fucked...
possession, self torment up to removing limbs, hops out of the vessel to cauterize.
if he can shift out of there at that point, he’s done what he wants to do. if not, maybe just leaves him tied up in the woods to rot or whatever.
may or may not nom on his emotions, depending how he feels about it lol
icqt lmk what you think!!
if you don’t think verso would be able to leave on his own and that’s too terrible, maybe vince can come back after a couple days and tell him he better not fuck around anymore, nom said emotions, go incorporeal and mercy kill him
oooh yes, sounds good! but uh, he
won't need to cauterise it, verso's regeneration will be slowed in kart but given
this is what it's like in canon... yeah.
which could mean we go with a) vince mistakenly thinking he'll need to and hopping out for that regardless, or b) someone else comes along to interrupt
i thought it would just be extra fun since he has an apparent aversion to fire lol
yeah, going to burn him would get him pulling out all the stops to get out at least
could always be a thing saved for later too, i’m chill with it!
tho fightback is cool too
ok, submitted reputation... very interested to know how that’s gonna turn out
see what kind of repercussions vince may face.... hehe
is this for his morally questionable acts....
haha... only a little bit of maiming and murder!
just a widdle, he’s otherwise been so good!
he deserves to be praised for being well behaved!
yeah!! do you know how difficult that is, geez
Vani gets it. he can't behave either tbh haha...
and now they’ll only be encouraging one another yaaay
> vani and noenoe kinda getting some empathy, weird... but maybe not when he sees the parallels to gil lmao (also being kinda weird about it, no surprise there)
Vince like I get a gold star for not doing more maiming and murder, right?? lmao
lmao YEAH. been playing along so nicely, until they went and pissed all over his efforts sheesh

so rude gosh
they were terribly rude first, so. I think that's fair
truly! it would’ve been one thing if they’d just taken him. but vani? his BIG BRO? absolutely tf not.
Basically. Same with my idiot. Does not care if something happens to him, but his friends? Nope. Absolutely not.
patho-gen picked the wrong people to mess with haha...
I love how they're all "you should've picked me not them"
hahaha ikr... this is why they all get each other i guess!!
Look Vani already went through the experimentation thanks to Doc Moreau he does not need more of that!!!
So yeah. His idiot vampire absolutely would offer himself to take Vani's place.
but yes, if they’re smart, they’ll nail vincent’s ass now hahaha
> rowanmanaged to describe big bro and vani without waxing for ages... somehow.....
vince the romantic about his lover and bro haha

he has good taste
definitely~ he does himself up so nicely, too
he tries... he it’s easier to pass in a pretty package, even if just a sack of shit, he thinks LMAO
LMAOOO this is true... I swear Vani must adhere to the same principle... (that and he's just a damn stickler for neatness and cleanliness. and bows)
vince probably suspects as much, but he damn well appreciates the effort lol
his perfectionism just makes for cute wifey material
good! he better appreciate him or he'll be miffed! lmao
he is the ideal househusband, it's true....
at least vince hasn’t proposed lmao
> aetherdon’t compliment him oh my god... but maybe he does feel like aether could make him a better guy
he will make an attempt haha
that’s all he can do... no one has high expectations hahaha
listen, he just knows people don't change easily, but he also knows they can change if they're given enough time and encouragement!!
WE SHALL SEE... there sure a lot of temptations to do very bad things these days!! Lmao
GOSH. THAT WOULD PUT HIM ON ROLAND LEVELS OF CREEPY LMAO... if only because he's scared of love alone, what about marriage??
hahaha omg. lucky for him, vince doesn’t think well enough of himself for ceremonial traditions lol
tho god that would be funny
it would be hilarious ngl
...is there a canon example of Vince when drunk. because maybe it could be drunken shenanigans LMAO
doesn’t mean that it couldn’t happen tho!
YUP. last time, i figured that he has a very tough time getting out of his head, so basically just him giving less of a fuck lol
they’ll just have to get him absolutely hammered
> gilaka i’d do aaaanything for you bro
vani can do that tbh. it'll probably be part of his way of trying to smooth things over haha...
omg... he would have to be extra sneaky about it then!! vince is prob gonna be shut off with zero faith lmfdhsk
like truly corner him into touching haha
cries good thing vani is almost as much of manipulator as vince;;
standoff!! which manipulator will win!
vani is gonna give it his best!! he'll pretend to choke, dammit, then vince will have to help him or watch him die
lmaooo omg. i mean, yeah, i’d believe he could commit to the bit enough to make vince go from ‘stop’ to ‘wait is he tho’
vanitas is enough of a devil to do it for real, too, if push come to shove haha.......
just casually trying to off himself...
he's not right in the head, we've established that LMAO
Y-yeah lol. Full time job keeping him and his idiot vampire alive really.
verso would have Words about that (particularly with it happening in the presence of vince...)
sob yeah... some things are best left unsaid haha...
hahaha chokes to pull vince back in, it’s vince’s fault
this is why aether thinks vanitas is trying to get killed...
only slightly... I mean, he did insult the vampire queen in front of one of a powerful vampire and nearly got throttled;;
yeah, vince clocked it on day one lmao
...yeah. He would be so dead if it wasn't for his meatshield lol
Haa. Yeah. Of course he unintentionally makes this Awkward now lmao. But really, Vani....!
things you just don't discuss with others!
I mean. If anyone was gonna mess up and let something slip. It's gonna be Noé. Sorry Vani. How was he supposed to know that you hadn't told Vincent???
because he never talks about anything anyway?!
gj guys, both in opposite corners
they're great at this lmao
Best at communicating and keeping each other alive somehow. clearly.
vince isn’t great at communication either, unless he wants to be... lmao
when it’s beneficial, i guess!!
yes
selective communication lmao
yup... the aspect of imprinting does make him a lil better about it, but that more or less goes out the window when it comes to certain things
that's honestly understandable lmao;; don't worry, vince, we getcha
They really can be the most hopeless sometimes. These idiots.
prob not the double team Vani would want, no. lol
not hardly LOL he'd much rather the fun kind, thx
Vani all wait no not like this????
could’ve been worse considering!!
The vampire the only one that is like uh maybe not torturing these guys is a better idea????? Guys plz.
man, i’ve been in a funky funk, but i’m trying to get back on it today!
> gilthe brothers are being a couple of doofs
aether brings out all his kindness, sheesh
well, closest he has to it
and that's super cute
I really like the "I am soft for that one person" trope
it’s one of the best
he would be so tsun about it if he didn’t have that imprinting override, so bless for that lmao
if things do end up imploding with vani, we might get a taste of that lmao
it sounds like verso could potentially end up spilling the beans, so we’ll see!!
things are bound to get interesting!
and since vince would be stressing himself out + probably overdoing it by working his community day service job + is basically at the end of his corruption, maybe he’ll end up dying this month 🤔
or trigger it for the upcoming month, depending on how stuff goes. and just like. try to play it off as much as he can ‘cause he’s a shit like that.
but aether would like to reach out to him
I mean they're close now, he wouldn't leave him alone
understandable!! and he’s pretty weak to his connections, so we’ll see how long he’s able to hold out honestly lmao
he’d try to act all mean, but his imprints are all very stubborn people lol
yup... and it would be too easy to see through his efforts, considering lmao

this one is fun
cleaning up screen tones tho...fml
pretty creepy vince tho <3
ty
RIGHT THO? I tried working with them but they risize so terribly... sob
been so long since I made icons that I forgot fff
yeah, they need to be a certain size to blend nicely, otherwise it creates a hideous mesh look sob....
I try to offset some of the effect by applying a darkened gray layer to even out the light colors, but it only goes so far...
ooh that’s a good idea, I’ll have to try that

thank you
man, this thing does not want to resize without devolving into pixel hell
i miss having photoshop sometimes huff
no problem! hope it helps! <3 but yeah, the program you're using can affect the end result sometimes...
if you flick the pic to me I have the pro version of clip paint studio which has a "remove screentones" feature I could run it through
icqt: ooo that’s an incredible feature

i really appreciate that, thank you!
like, ran one of the pics from the heading through it just now, it's pretty great. doesn't like that gradiated tone particularly but it's not bad at all
omg incredible... thank you so much
as you saw, took literally two seconds haha
so much easier to just clean up the black
LOVE IT... may have to invest lmao
it regularly goes on sale for 50% off and I love it. do note that this is in the pro version not the ex version, pro is more expensive but it's still nowhere near photoshop expensive
true that... dumb ps. i used to have it through work, but it got lost between computers at some point. huff
like

so at 50% off us$30 and us$130 respectively. also worth checking out if you have a tablet or grunt-y phone is the app version. you get 30 free hours a month on them and I just checked and it has the remove tones feature!
30 isn’t bad, but the free hours feature is so useful! thank you
it's super nice. I regularly use it on my phone just for quick on the go stuff.
and the devs actually give a fuck about artists. they were going to do ai generative art stuff but when their users were like "UM, NO????" they were like "WE HEARD YOU WE GET IT WE'RE SORRY WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A GOOD LONG LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND THINK ABOUT WHAT WE VALUE AS A COMPANY"
which when every other big name in art software (adobe, corel) is going that route I think is pretty damn good. like, not great that they were going to do it, but they held themselves accountable and haven't gone back on it.
that is super admirable. thank god some businesses are on the artists’ side rather than just... pure profit
so weird, i can’t find the feature on the iOS app version
BUT it has a smoothing feature that is just as excellent
it also resized properly with a lil tinkering, god bless

creepy boi
Hm! It should be there, under edit. Might have to turn off "simple mode" to get it to show up
I'll check if I need to do anything different on iOS next time I'm on my ipad

I tinkered around with the other options there but
I checked the help guide too, and it said something about the feature being in beta testing and unavailable on some versions. I did make sure to select pro, but maybe since it’s a trial?
it’s already made a huge difference tho
wait hang on I think I got the versions mixed up, ex is the version that has it
sorry, I'm so bad about the names
ooooh. no problem! i dont think i had the option for ex via the app, but i’ll double check
seems like it should be there!
AHA. ok found it. i’ll try to reinstall and see if i can switch over my trial, but miiight be stuck with pro by the looks of it... darn
I think you should be able to under "app settings" > "purchase app/check grade or payment plan"
i think that’s where i looked 🤔 of course, i can’t remember for sure now lol. i’ll check again in the morning tho

just settled into bed
thank you for all the help btw! loving the program so far
I'm glad!! yeah even the basic version is honestly so good. and I am happy to run stuff through the remove tones thing whenever
