Everlasting Orbit

Welcome, so glad you could join us-

[everlastingorbit]

Welcome to Everlasting Orbit! We're so glad you could join us.

We also have 2 other blogs: Our main @fairstival and our not AU related art @tinyfairart. You may have also seen us lurking around the various dca discords.

Icon is a commission from @nexerist

Below the cut is information on the AU , Current projects, and what's allowed in character questions.

Humans and monsters have existed for a very long time but despite that tensions remain high. In a time of dystopian surveillance and fear, a monster hunter organization is formed hoping to clear what little remains of their people. Funded by local governments and wealthy business men who eye the Requiem district the monsters have long called home. We follow Y/N who is a hunter themselves driven into district after a hunt gone wrong. And Sun and Moon, two former monsters now ghosts who seek to protect what remains of their homes in different ways. They may just be the breaking point of what's left of the fractured relationship of the infamous Celestial twins.

Find my Ao3 here

My current projects include

An animated animatic to go with My Star, My Morning Light

and the first chapter of the main fic

As of right now, the only rule for allowed character questions is no NSFW. I'll likely add to this as I run into any issues.

I absolutly beyond adore this. Every single pose is exactly as I envisioned it. The joy that radiates from this comic is exactly as I tried to display.

AND THE COLORS! As the joy swells and grows the background gets brighter and more vibrant. A cold muted blue to soaring yellows and pinks. So in the moment. and the way you draw them!! The expressions the smiles especially. They look so young and free. And both so cozy.

I cried last night just looking at every frame over and over and even now I still can't stop looking. Thank you so much this is actually a better gift than I could have asked for. It's stunning and your incredibly talented.

I want to apologize for chapter one taking so long. It's currently 3000 words in the revisioning process but as I reread it I'm realizing it needs a lot more detail.

It's means there's going to be a lot of world building and plenty to read for the first chapter but its going to take longer than I hoped.

Thank you to everyone interested in the project and for the patience as I try my best lol

A little wip drabble for the fellas

All at once the exhaustion and pain hits. I feel horrible, I’m unsure if I can make it back to cilvilzation in my current condition. I must try either way, I don’t want to know what the monster's body might draw in if I stay. I shiver just looking at it, unable to take my eyes away, like it might once again rise back up. Like its many hands won’t once again find purchase in the shattered tile and breathe life into its corpse.

I will myself to rise, even as my leg and side protest. Stumbling out the glass doors into the street I realize how many hours our hunt had been. It was late afternoon when I confronted it and now the touches of dusk colored the sky.

Now to make it back. Would be easy enough if I recognized where I was.

Nothing looked familiar. The buildings had a completely different look to them, made of brick and concrete rather than metal. The windows on the outside were sparce, only enough to allow light in. And the alleyways were massive, easy to simply walk through rather than being so narrow you have to squeeze yourself through or downright nonexistent.

As I walked, I noticed more and more. The plant life had taken over the structures here, clearly having been abandoned. But as the various vines and trees grew out of the cracks and breaks in the wall they never reached over the rooftops. And if they had been abandoned, why did the old advertisement board shine bright? Why hadn’t the power been turned off? I tried to retrace my steps but still nothing looked recognizable.

More signs of life became clear to me as I wandered aimlessly. Clothing lines tied in place, cheap graphic shirts and pants strung up to dry. A water tap imbedded in the wall dripping water into a bucket placed underneath it. The sound of a radio in the distance before it disappeared leaving only silence in its place. Plastic bags full of scrap fabric on the ground as if it had been dropped in a hurry.

The feeling of many pairs of eyes on my back

Snippet of chapter one under the cut. tw: blood

I heard its long multiple arms grip the brick walls and metal pipes, no doubt leaving a trail of blood in its wake. Good, the others would be able to find me again whether I was dead or alive. I kept running, ignoring the difficulty to breath. Running and running.

A left here.

A right there.

Running in whatever direction was closest that wasn’t straight. It was chasing me so quickly it couldn’t keep up with my turns, taking a few seconds to slow its momentum enough to turn after me. And soon the loud clattering behind me was no longer there. Focusing on steading my breathing, I listened closely. I could still hear it, but it was a few blocks away searching for me.

That gave me time.

Slipping into the nearest building to my right, I brace myself against the wall. As quickly and quietly as I can, I tear a tattered piece off my coat, hearing the seams rip as I pull. I hiss as I lift my vest, the fabric inadvertently rubbing against the wounds. Calm yourself, calm your breathing. You need to know the extent of your damage. It struck deep, the wounds would need stitches to fully heal. I could already smell the familiar scent of putrescine, a sign of infection. I would need a way to clean that later. But first I needed to slow the bleeding.

It had started to clump but my running had not helped it. I released my top before quickly tying the scrap tightly around my side, perhaps a bit too tight, but I could not risk losing any more than I already had. I was already dizzy and lightheaded, anymore could slow my movements and risk my focus, something I could not afford.

Hey this is your secret skeleton for the DCAH2023 event! I have a couple questions for your gift:

1) Do you have a preference between your ghosty boys or them before they died for your gift?

2) Do you have a post that explains/summarizes more about your AU? If not, do you have any important information I might need to know to draw them accurately?

Hello! To answer your questions

I like the ghost versions of them better but you can do either or.

As far as information to draw them, the center in their chest has wires sticking out meant to represent their anger and the side of their face that's missing is also supposed to be bunched up wires. If you feel that's too much work you can omit that though. (I usually do because I'm lazy.) Also, if you would like I can get a Y/N ref up in a few days if you would like to incorporate them in some way.

Also sun carries a lighter. Moon had a matching one but threw it away after a fight shortly after waking up as ghosts.(The yellow one is suns.)

I have a lot of writings on discord I'll post underneath, its a lot and I apologize for that but its basically everything I've laid out so far

The world is a cyberpunk style dystopia but demons and other supernatural creatures exist. They conjoin together on the west end of town known as the Requiem District. Named by the business men and politicians that lament the loss of the good land.

Outside of the district there is an idea of a perfect order, represented by a yellow triangle patch usually placed on clothing. This idea has formed a monster hunter organization that is paid for by taxes and large donations from wealthy members of society. In classic cyberpunk fashion there is a large class disparity. Because of this Y/N carries an old revolver an axe and the reason why their coat is so torn.

Ghosts are souls that choose to live on usually to complete something they consider important or to prevent others from reaching the same fate. Ghosts can be distinguished by their tear drop that they have on one side of their face.

Sun and Moon are known as the Celestial Twins and are both protectors of their home just in different ways. Sun seeks to protect Humans, which he views as belonging. He cares for those who have nowhere else to turn and leads innocents trapped in the walls back to safety. He carries a lighter as guidance, an opposite to Moon's unnatural neon flames. Moon protects the monsters. He uses his flame to lead any hunters deeper into the city, making them believe that civilization is just ahead before he extinguishes it. He traps those looking to do harm and is known and feared by those looking to take back the broken city.

Y/N is this world is a Hunter, but one forced to turn to the forgotten part of the city after being injured by a monster. Both Sun and Moon were killed by a hunter they let stay one night and don't have great views of them.

The forgotten city itself is unnatural with its building only ever growing higher and its alleys ever tighter. The very city creaks to keep those within trapped and those outside of it away. Neon signs flicker to convey messages and plants never able to grow above the skyline no matter how long it has been.

Sun and Moon's relationship is quite strained after their mutual deaths. Sun convinced his brother to let the human stay before they showed their true intentions, Because of that Moon hates himself for failing that night and letting his brother get hurt. He stays away from him out of anger and fear. He is determined to get retribution for the two of them.

Y/N to only make things more complicated as Sun protects humans. And here's one in front of him. They're a hunter though but they did not come seeking harm. The wariness that both the twins feel compounded with the growing intrusion on their home, their city.

Despite sun being a ghost, he chooses not to float and instead walk. His reliance on a lighter for light helps keep him connected to the idea of the human side of this world. He's slow, gentle, and keeps his more inhuman side hidden. Moon is comparison doesn't bother and even tries to amplify his inhuman nature. With floating around and sharp robotic movements and sudden jolts forward. Obviously also his fire which he uses to mimic the unnatural neon lights of the city.

Ghosts are incorporeal but could take on a physical form. However it takes a lot of energy and many choose not too unless they feel absolutely necessary. They can still interact with objects however.

Moon haunts people in their dreams and makes them desperate. he can still interact with objects just not people so he burns and steal supplies. He eventually convinces them to kill themselves since he can't touch them and isn't going to let them leave and bring reinforcements. Y/N is caught up in the middle of this as Sun is trying to help and keep them safe while moon torments them and makes things worse there by also forcing the two twins to interact

Both of the celestial twins are a species of monster known as automatons. Automatons represent an aspect of their environments or some type of technology. This can be radios, speakers, air sirens, basically anything electronical based. Sun and Moon are electric wires. It's why light plays such a big role in their story

The entire world is currently desperate for resources so punk fashion that used to be a subculture now has entered the main stream. I like to imagine moon made not only their clothes but repaired other monsters clothing as well. He's decorated sun's poor torn up sweater multiple times with left over fabric. Cute star and cloud shapes made with the utmost love. Poor sun misses that sweater desperately after his death, unable to find it again.

If you have any other questions feel free to send them. I'd love to help where I can.
