Special Pride Month edition (or almost...)
I should finish this damn drawing because I've already missed SO MANY holidays because of the end of my college studies and my hyperfocus on a story I'm creating. And I NEEDED to create some art for Pride Month! For Valentine's Day in my country (yes, Valentine's Day for me is in June), but guess what? This idiot here who's talking to you forgot!!! And went to do that damn Art Fight and is hyper-focused on her new story!!! Yeah... I'm disorganized when it comes to art... I could send a simple drawing and stuff... But screw it! What am I going to do is send a angst-ridden lore to the... three fans who still follow me, I think... At least one person who likes Ace and Liam as a couple and the Gone Wrong AU will like this. Including... Beta design of Liam from the Gone Wrong AU:
Yes, Liam has the other half of the Guardian Strike Sword in this AU, but let me explain the story first...
Story of a Doomed Yaio! Uhuuuuuh!
In this universe, mutants were hunted all over the world, blamed for the explosions that occurred globally, which also resulted in the "United States" becoming a purist dictatorship. Meanwhile, Ace was working at his family's bakery, trying to find an opportunity to pursue an acting career and fulfill his dream. Luckily, he actually gets an opportunity to work as a makeup artist on a film set, and it was on that day that he would meet a "spoiled and rich cat skunk": Liam Le Pew. Initially, Liam would treat him with slight disdain, and Ace would act the same way, but since they had to work together in the same workplace every day during filming... Gradually, the two began to grow closer in a somewhat more subtle way... It started with just complaints about the director as a group... Then more casual conversations between makeup sessions... Then discussions about which was the best musical... Until it turned into more personal conversations. To their surprise... They had a lot in common... They both liked acting, music, some obscure TV series, and had similar opinions... And this unlikely friendship began to turn into something more. A crush, perhaps? Well... Liam was never subtle about his feelings, especially with Ace, so the confession came quickly... And, after a slight tsundere reluctance, Ace reciprocated...
Unfortunately... Ace's happiness wouldn't last long... After an incident with Lexi, in which she was revealed to be a mutant, Ace's entire family "mysteriously disappeared"... The only one who really remained was Ace, because he wasn't at the bakery that day... And when Ace went looking for them... It was already too late for Marli and his father... And he didn't even know where Lexi was... And that broke him... To lose his family completely?! The only ones he had by blood?! That was too much... And this made him an easy target to be manipulated by the Supreme Lord... Who promised him revenge against the people who took away his little happiness... Something that would blind Ace to everything... And that included her beloved...
Liam had noticed that Ace was shaken after his parents "disappeared," and tried to comfort his boyfriend. However, Ace, manipulated by the Supreme Lord and thirsting for revenge, refused to listen. And the fight between them was inevitable when Liam discovered the atrocities Ace was committing... But, by that point, Ace was already lost... And, in a spark of sanity he still possessed, he warned Liam: "Get out of my way... I don't want to have to kill you... Please...". And Liam, at first, really didn't want to interfere... He truly thought Ace wasn't crazy and that he would change his mind... But it didn't happen... After the Supreme Lord's coup and takeover of the world, Liam ended up being called by Black Velvet to join the Resistance against the Supreme Lord... Something that Liam reluctantly accepted. The silver part of the Guardian Strike Sword chose him to fight, placing him on the front lines against the Supreme Lord... and consequently, against his former love, Ace. And since then, the two have been trying to bring each other back to their side, in this game of cat and mouse (or rather, cat-skunk and rabbit), but knowing that, in the end, they will never have each other back...
Well, I think this already covers the drawing quota for Pride Month... Sorry I can't do a proper, formal drawing... I really need to get more organized... Well then... May God be with you, and see you later!
