Another pre-written thing collecting dust in my draftā¦cause I was so nervous to jump back into oc content and between Dale and Sadaoā¦Dale is easier for me to talk about because heās mainly a himboā¦anywayābelow is the prewritten stuff!
I miss my ocs but at the same time it takes forever for me to draw them right š
Especially this manāhe has one of the most AUs cause heās stupid and l a r g e
But fun fact in another AU (or his canon? The one I created initially ig) he actually does live out his band dreams; they even became internationally recognized! He obviously became the most popular for his attractiveness but also his innocently naive personality. Everyone in the band appeals to certain demographics and their stage presence is fabricated to a degreeā¦but his? Thatās no front heās just like thatāplus heās VERY affectionate with fans and his bandmatesāand obviously itās stirred their fans into shipping culture. The band has a āno in-datingā rule tho, so itās never happening.
Bad news: Besides the teen bandmate (who is strictly a comical and biased wingwoman) EVERYONE ELSE IS HEADS OVER HEELS OVER THAT MAN
AND HE HAS NO IDEA BECAUSE THEY DONāT OVERSTEPā¦but they make sure no one can actually get close to him just so they all can fight over him inside the group. Is this a harem? Yes. Yes it is. Except nobody wins because they have to follow the rule they put down. š„¹ Itās a state of yearning no one wants but thatās their fate!
I think I have some old art of them (shuddersā¦) itās so so so old OOOOOOO ITS SO SO BAD
Fun fact Iām only semi-new to digital artāI struggled with it a lot so I stuck with traditionalā¦but my handwriting is bad no matter pen or pencil X3 I hope I can say my digital art has improved
On and because idk how to color I never did much with themā¦Except the main man himself (heās not even the lead, heās just their guitarist)
He dyes his hair, with temporary dye, and thereās definitely stage makeup, thatās how he becomes
š£ļøTHE BLACK DRAGONā¼ļø
I need to redraw them. So badly. Aughehhegh IT PAINS ME SO MUCHHHH AAAAA
Everytime I read their little moments with him I realize just how much characterization I put in every characterā
Actually itād probably be better to nab some content from my odd application for a killing game (donātā¦donāt think much of it, Iād like to bury that era until itās timeā¦)
But back then he was known as Dragon to the world
And hereās a blurb about his meeting with them
Iā¦itās been years since Iāve looked at it, but I gotta prefaceā¦heās been uneducated for awhile, plus a few months in prison soā¦heās been through the ringer Iāll tell ya!
Dragon didnāt want to have such a sketchy and āuncoolā ultimate, and Reed decided to pull some strings to clear his records and have a clean slate. It was the least Reed could do, since that promise of saving Dragon was far, far too late. Instead of a Bounty Hunter he decided to be the Ultimate Rockstar. It helped that he had such a unique way of reading and writing music, and everyone was far too scared of him to try and fight for the title, so it worked out!
Now? Dragon decided to take his interests and become a rockstar and also a philanthropistāhe didnāt know what philanthropy was, but his actions mimicked itāand during his quest he garnered a band. To be honest, every band member he met was in an odd scenario, but it worked out in his favor!Ā
He ran into Ophelia first. He was just playing guitar and singing for money. Sure he got money from his original job but it was dirty and tainted, and he wanted to do something cooler, so he played music! She ended up visiting a lot, and he would chat with her. He realized how shy she was so he adjusted to not scare her off, and she was grateful for it. Sometimes, she would even sing while he played the guitar, and that brought in even more money. One night, Ophelia was getting harassed by a few drunkards, and he came in to protect her. That day cemented Opheliaās crush on him, while he was focused on helping her out. Eventually, they ended up deciding on making a band together. Sticking to the mythical theme of Dragonās name, Ophelia decided to go as Selkie the Siren. This was the start of the band.Ā
The next one Dragon met was Axel. Admittedly it wasnāt the best of an experience. Dragon was slumped up on the sidewalk after a nasty nighttime mission where he took some pretty bad hits. Axel found him there, barely conscious, but by some miracle Dragon convinced Axel to not take him to the hospital. Thankfully Axel was a nurse in training and could treat his wounds in his own home. Dragon noticed he had a drum set, and asked him to play. Axel decided to go with it and showed off his skills, and Dragon decided to ask him to join the band he was making. Axel thought this man was crazy, but he was curious about this mysterious man in his house. Thatās the moment Axel became Goliath, the lead drummer.Ā
Noe and Rena ended up running into Dragon in an arcade. In all honesty Rena was curious about how high his score was in guitar hero and challenged him. Meanwhile, Noe oversaw them both. Noe was cautious of Dragon due to his insane height and features, but they grew to like him. Noe also ended up being the one to teach him about pronouns, gender, and sexualities, which helped them grow closer. Dragon ended up being such good friends with them that he babysat Rena a lot, and never asked for much, just food. In the midst of this Dragon ended up teaching Rena how to play the bass when she admitted she wanted to be a musician like Noe, but she didnāt want to learn piano. She wanted to learn to play bass, and Dragon could help out. When she was good enough at it he asked them both to join his band. They agreed, taking on the names Hecate and DemeterĀ
Now, he had his band, the Mythos of Madness!
*rubbing my hands against my face* THIS WRITING IS AWFULLLLL AUGH I CANāT WRITE FORMALLYYYYY (but it is old for a reasonā¦)
Also fun fact; kinda suggestive but I think itās funny-
All that muscle and charm? Straight virgin. Idk how he got this far but he just never did anything š
(do the bandmates that want that man know this? Yup. This has left them confused too, and fighting to not do something about it š£ļøGOTTA FOLLOW THE RULESā¼ļø you can tell they all deeply regret that mistake but what? They canāt undo itā)
Now? āļøš¼ That man is a kisser! For his fans (and to boost promos/PR) heās also kissed his bandmates (extremely consensual. Literally the highlight of their or stuff) All for the shipping war in their fan space. He is aware of it somewhatā¦but he never panders TOO muchā¦lest the fans start jumping up on stage or throwing their clothes at him š which has happened before!!
Yeah I just wanted to talk about him (I mean heās gonna be on my ArtFight and Iāll probably draw him more) so I just wanted to peek back into his origins from Dale to Dragon. (Itās better to call him Dragon. He likes that name.)
