The smoke blowing his hair and clothes around. . .I wonder if he's gambling with cerberus for the remakning flowers they need or if this is something else happening? I like this angle on him though *u*
After playing Seal's recent tag game, I was curious to see if the website had any templates for TKDB. Lo and behold. Play HERE
No pressure tags (^.^) : @tillichan @junevnti @rinthelordofbean @sweetlikevanilaaa
Some notes:
First chosen character - I don't play the game, so I put my first fav character (Tohma) in this box.
Fav design - It was a close fight between Romeo and Jiro, but Romeo won in the end with the power of lower lashes.
Best cards - Every Elias card I've seen blew me away. But I must note that it's easier for Elias (and the other Dionysia boys) to make it into this box when they have so few cards compared to the other characters, in the most developed art style no less.
Favourite in terms of story - Haku is so mysterious and interesting. He's my top candidate for the ghoul traitor, so I'm really eager to see where the story takes him.
Side Note: My first chosen character actually would’ve been Leo since I thought he was pretty but I was talked out of it by my friend so I chose Lyca instead XD
fav design was really hard for me!! i love so many… but i guess right now i keep sobbing everytime i see shion’s chibi with the hat so… him for now lmao
if dionysia was in i’d probs choose elias!!! h..hottie…

You were, by all means, not someone who skipped class—especially a class you genuinely enjoyed—without a good reason. Usually, it was because the staff needed new paperwork for an upcoming mission. Anything else would have definitely earned you a lecture for skipping.
But leaving class because a certain fourth year was feeling… lonely?
“Elias… ahah…” A flustered laugh escaped you as you found yourself trapped in your current predicament with the ghoul.
“Hm? Is something the matter?” His voice rumbled softly behind you, sending a shiver down your spine as the warmth of his body pressed a little closer.
Earlier that day, Elias had texted you in the middle of class.
Emergency. Could you come to my room ASAP?
It sounded innocent enough, you supposed.
Well—not entirely innocent, considering who it came from. Still, if he truly needed you, maybe something had happened with Shion. Maybe he was sick. Maybe something was wrong.
You hadn’t given yourself much time to consider the possibilities. Just to be safe, you stopped by the general store to pick up some tea and medicine. Thankfully, Dionysia was on the way, and hopefully Elias wouldn’t be too far gone by the time you reached his door.
And after a quick knock and hearing his approval to enter, you stepped inside.
…Only to discover that he was perfectly fine. More than fine, actually.
He sat comfortably in his chair with a cup of his usual dark roast coffee in hand, casually beckoning you closer. The moment he set the cup down and stood to greet you, however, it felt as though you’d already fallen into his trap.
“You’re just… closer than usual today,” you murmured, instinctively avoiding his gaze. Something about the glint in his dark blue eyes only made your face feel warmer.
“Isn’t this what dear lovers do?” he whispered, his lips brushing near your ear. “Bask in each other’s warmth?” His arms tightened around your waist as he spoke.
“!! I thought you were sick. What’s going on?” you pouted, and there it was, the expression you’d always make when he was in trouble — he loved it. “I even brought you medicine…”
That earned you one of those closed eye smiles you could never resist. Unfortunately, he looked beautiful when he smiled like that. Especially this close.
“Is it so terrible to crave my lover’s attention?” he asked dramatically. “You wound me, my love.”
“That’s not—wah?!” A yelp escaped you as you suddenly found yourself lifted off the ground. Before you knew it, he was carrying you toward the bed.
“Elias…!” You pushed against his chest as if it would get you anywhere. Ghoul strength, right?
A small yawn escaped him.
“Mmhm?” he hummed. “Won’t you nap with me? I’m quite tired this afternoon from working so hard.”
“You’re impossible…” you groaned as he carefully lowered you onto the sheets, your legs already beginning to intertwine with his. Though, you couldn’t lie to yourself, it was surprisingly comfortable. “You just had coffee. How can you be tired?”
Elias hummed, exhaling softly beside your ear.
“It seems your presence has made me drowsy once again.” The man chuckled when he heard the soft yawn that escaped your mouth, tilting his head just enough to bury his face against your neck.
You couldn’t bring yourself to reply. True or not, matching the rhythm of his breathing had already made you forget about class altogether—something that would definitely come back to bite you later.
For now, though, you supposed you could rest with him.
it looks greasy and stiff, the textures are overdone. i'm not sure about the armor he's wearing either, i could understand them adding that to adult link at some point but i don't see how it'll make sense for child link at this point in his life. and i'm assuming by having his hat and shoes off they want to make it make more sense for him to be in bed but if that was the case why does he have the armor on? why not just put him in an entirely different set of clothes as pajamas? plus making his bed sheet green against his green tunic is just bad art direction, he blends into the scene and feels like a disconnected shape.
i'm hoping they just showed this way too soon and this isn't a good shot to demonstrate their art direction but i'm not really sure how to feel about it yet.
(also maybe i'm slightly annoyed seeing so many people praise the look of this when probably many of those same people got upset at my hd OOT N64 gifs from several months ago. like ok when indie nonprofit modders do it it's cursed but when the multi billion dollar corporation does it it's awesome? and tbh the look of this really does remind me of those "unreal engine remakes" we'd see every few months in the 2010s that looked terrible but apparently that's what gamers wanted)
i'm sure there will be a couple of people that disagree with my sentiment or get upset with me in the comments but whatever, i'm gonna hold my full judgement until we see more footage. these teaser trailers always kind of suck
SUMMARY: subaru brings the bus anomaly some lunch.
COMMENTS: @midoisamis this is for u LMAAOAOAOAOA thank you tkdb exchange server for being just wacky enough to birth this idea so i could write it
The toasted bread was still warm in the wrapper as Subaru makes his way to the parking lot. His eyes cast over the rows and rows of anomalous transportation, appraising each one as he goes by. Each one of them is special in their own right, and has their own classification. He's memorized them all.
The scent of barbecue wafts through the air, stirring awake some of the winged bicycles, their bells twitching and dinging with interest. It takes four seconds for him to be swarmed by rouge bicycles, their handlebars tilting curiously.
“Ah...I’m so sorry,” Subaru bows, apologizing, “I’ll bring you some next time too, alright?”
The bicycles seem placated, their rapid dinging fading into a soft symphony of chimes as they return to their spots.
They're so kind.
Smiling softly to himself, cheeks pink, Subaru continues down the rows. The transportation gets bigger and bigger as he goes on— from bicycles to motorbikes to cars to vans—and he finally reaches the bus.
DW00-42 sits at the very end of the row, its legs tucked underneath it. Subaru quickens his pace, eyes brighter than they’ve been in a long time.
“AaaAaAaAa?” the bus perks up at the smell, just like the other anomalies before it.
“Ah...Hello! I’m so sorry to disturb you...” he shifts in place, a little ways away from the bus, “I wanted to thank you for the transportation to Camp Darkwick. I’m so sorry if I intruded!”
The bus opens its mouth, tongue hanging free past its lips. Subaru looks on in wonder, captivated by its mannerisms. The tongue flicks once, twice, and it stands up on all four legs instantaneously.
“You smell with your tongue...?” he murmurs to himself, gaze full of wonder.
“AAaAaAaaAAa!!!” the bus demands, closing the distance between it and Subaru in three quick strides.
“Here! It’s one of the barbeque sandwiches I was planning on feeding Bonnie, but Sho came back earlier than we thought he would...I had extra,” Subaru explains, extending the sandwich towards its waiting mouth, “I’m sorry if it doesn’t taste good...”
The Anomalous bus’s mouth closes around his hand, the tongue sweeping the entire sandwich and wrapper into its mouth. Subaru gasps at the rough feeling on its tongue, similar to a cat’s tongue.
The bus pulls away and Subaru’s right hand is gloveless.
For once, he doesn’t really care.
He laughs softly, cheeks pink as the bus bends its knees once, twice, flashing its lights at him three times before lumbering back to its parking spot.
“Y...You’re welcome!” Subaru calls, gloved and ungloved hand clasped in front of him, “I hope you’ll allow me to visit you again!”
