Irratino: Attention everyone! My hair has become an Internet phenomenon!

Pride HCs: Ecru, Ivory, and (Radical) Crimson!

Threefer today! (Well, discounting the Bordergrams special XD) Ecru, Ivory, and Rad. Crimson are all lesbians, and Ecru has a wife (whom I’ve drawn before ^^)! Fun fact, Amethyst’s aforementioned possible gf is among these three. Can you tell who it is? 👀

Anyway can you tell Ivory and Ecru’s designs are very WIP + I’ve never drawn cowboy hats before—

[lilythelitten]

Pride HCs: Bordergrams!

And back on the pride HC grind! ^^ I’ve mentioned this before a couple times, but hey, why not mention it again: B is demisexual! Hence why throughout his life he’s only had feelings for two people :P The questioning flag is there, not just because he doesn’t realize he’s demi (growing up with your only sexuality education being how to weaponize it against your enemies will do that to you), but also because his gender is…well, I’m not actually sure what I HC him as, and gender was also not on the Division’s list of education priorities. So, uh, B’s gender identity in my take is summed up as “I don’t know, and I don’t think he does either” ^^;

And here’s Ripley and Ty! Ty being pan just felt right, he’s the kind of guy to be more into someone for their soul than their appearance; him being trans was just something fun I figured I’d throw in there ^^ Ripley being bi…frankly, I just looked at the design I gave her and realized there was no way she was completely straight XD It’s the vibe, what can I say.

New Pride HCs going up later today—until then, here’s a fic I wrote about non-binary Logico ^^

The last of the fantasy OCs! Everyone, meet Vivian and Rowan ^^

Vivian comes from a wealthy family, but has little interest in “typical” upper class activities. Rather, she spends much of her time studying the area’s archaeological history, often found at the library or museum. She’s quite intelligent for her age—and also quite stoic, blunt, and a bit overly logical and literal for her own good. Vivian’s social skills are perhaps lacking, but there’s no one who knows the town’s history better, and she’s happy to share (at length) with anyone who asks.

Rowan is a bundle of energy in a person-shaped can. Bubbly, cheerful, and hyper as hell, he wants to be friends with everyone and gets restless if he isn’t doing anything. Unfortunately, his energy gives him a bad habit of coming on too strong and scaring people, and he’s often got so much stuffed in his head he can’t even sleep—still, Rowan keeps on going, eagerly charging off into anything that looks new and exciting and having a great time doing it.

And with that, the last of the fantasy OCs are up! Feel free to ask questions about them or tell me who your favorite is, if any of that strikes your fancy XD We’ll be back to pride month posting in a couple days!

[lilythelitten]

Irratino: If you don’t sleep, how do you function?

Logico: I run on three fuels: spite, anxiety, and of course, coffee.

Going up early tonight XD Behold the next entries, Tora and Crescent!

Tora is a hothead, plain and simple. She’s rash and reckless, often flying off the handle when provoked and easy to set off. Her heart’s usually in the right place, her sense of justice being strong—it’s just that her tendency to punch first and ask questions later gets her in trouble more often than not. She’s got a soft spot for animals, though, and her family keeps a cat because of her. (And don’t ask about her hair. Not even she knows why it’s like that.)

Crescent comes from two hot-blooded, quick-tempered parents…which made it a shock to everyone how he ended up a mellow, calm individual. Few things phase him, or disrupt his general “go with the flow” attitude toward life. Crescent likes fishing, painting, and generally chill activities—he’s one of the calmest people you’ll meet. (He’s also Rysierre’s other cousin, this time on her father’s side XD)

Not much to say here, except that tomorrow will have the last of the fantasy OCs! And then we’ll be back to your regularly scheduled puzzle book nonsense :P

[lilythelitten]

Tonight’s OC offerings are Rysierre and Hex—and as you can see, I leaned much more into fantasy for these two XD

Rysierre is half-beastkin—those with traits of various animals—and a crack shot with a bow and arrow, having learned to hunt from one of the older people in the village. She’s stoic and often aloof, but takes great pride in her archery skills and does not take challenges lightly. Always seeking self-improvement, Rysierre is a bit of a literal “lone wolf” and sees teamwork as a sign of lack of skill on her part…but when she puts the bow away, she’s happy to spend time with others.

Hex was unfortunate enough to be born weak, suffering chronic illness through childhood and still somewhat frail in adolescence. Shy and soft-spoken by nature, Hex’s natural timidity means he’s usually the quietest at social gatherings. That said, though, he despises being pitied, and babying him is one of the few ways to get him to lose his temper. However shy he might be, Hex wants nothing more than to prove to people he can stand on his own, healthy or ill. (The mask might be an anachronism? But it suits him, so it stays :P)

I’ve mentioned several times these characters all share a setting. Well, now for a direct connection—Rysierre and Hex are cousins! The former’s mom and the latter’s dad are siblings. Said siblings also happen to be half-elves, so both are a quarter elven…even if Rysierre’s wolf traits kinda took priority there XD

[lilythelitten]

Next two OCs in the fantasy line-up: Elara and Gabriel!

Elara comes from a martial family on both sides, but the warrior’s way never appealed to her. Rather, she chose the study of medicine, often found working part-time at the clinic. She’s kind and compassionate, and never has a bad thing to say about anybody, but often fails to stand up for her own opinions and buckles easily for fear of upsetting others (that last part is definitely not projection). Despite this, though, she does her best to help others, and will never turn away from someone in need of kindness.

Gabriel is part of a doctor’s family (the same family who owns the clinic Elara spends time in, in fact) and, unfortunately, growing up in the clinic has given him a plethora of neuroses. Hypochondriac, germophobic, and horrendously anxious, Gabriel is a constant worrier, often annoying the rest of the friend group with his fretting over everything. Still, his heart’s in the right place, and in his satchel, he’s prepared for just about any emergency you might encounter—and a few you won’t.

Fun fact: I’ve made all ten of these guys in Tomodachi Life, and Elara’s outfit/Gabriel’s hairdo are copied exactly from their Tomodachi selves. They just fit ridiculously well XD

[lilythelitten]

Taking a short break from the pride HCs to draw two fantasy OCs of mine: meet Gwen (left) and Vale (right)!

Gwen is the daughter of a now-retired adventurer, and the spitting image of him if he were female and had longer hair. She grew up on stories of her father’s adventures and dreams of being a hero herself—one can often find her practicing swordplay in the fields. Gwen is bold, courageous, and daring, and even if she sometimes gets so caught up in her heroic fantasies she fails to take other people into consideration, she’s a great friend to have.

Vale is perpetually off in his own world. An artist down to the soul, he’s the kind of person to wander off to look at flowers and zone out while thinking about what he wants to paint next. He’s spacey and a bit of an oddball, but when he locks in, he locks in, often forgetting to eat or drink when working (totally not me projecting, nope). Vale’s thought processes are strange and sometimes hard to follow, but like Gwen, he’s a good friend to have. (He’s also, alas, one of those characters whose design covers other parts of his design. I tried to make what I did with his sleeves slightly visible, at least ^^;)

Both are fourteen, grew up in the same town, have been friends since childhood, and are two members of a ten-OC collection! I’m gonna be drawing the other eight over the next few days—if you like fantasy OCs, look forward to that ^^

[lilythelitten]

HC that B really is fond of mochi with the soybean powder (kinako mochi) because its not too sweet but its chewy and not something they get to eat often so its fun. also they just like mochi in general

Ripley is more fond of fruit cakes and stuff (taste wise) or a fruit tart, or those fruit bouquets because they're cute

Ty likes chocolate in general, particularly dark chocolate or almond chocolate.

(my silly headcanons)

Fun headcanons ^^ Maybe you should do a Bordergrams post yourself ^^

[lilythelitten]

i think B at some point tried to raise caterpillars in secret because he wanted to grow something and see what they turn into, but the caterpillars actually got parasitized by wasps (the cocoons hatched into wasps and all the butterflies were dead) so B got really sad and they don't like to look at insects much anymore

…damn that’s sad.

[lilythelitten]

I feel like I’ve been sleeping on the fact that Ty, like. Canonically invents shit.

So have some art of him inventing ^^

[lilythelitten]

Pride HCs: Amethyst and Blaze!

I only put them together ‘cause they share it: Amethyst and Blaze are bi! Amy might get a girlfriend in the future, we’ll see 👀 (can y’all guess who it would be?)

[lilythelitten]

Pride HCs: Mrs. Ruby!

Ruby is sapphic! (Aaaaand after all the work I put into drawing the flower on the flag, her body covers it. Of course XD) And identifies as such because she’s primarily attracted to female/fem-aligned people in addition to being pan. A couple guys can turn her head, but otherwise, she’s all about the ladies.

(I’m being fairly unspecific here because if my theory about Murdle Heist is correct, I need to cover whatever gender the Red Mask might turn out to be :P)

[lilythelitten]

Agent B: What am I doing wrong?

Ty: Do you want an answer as a friend or as a therapist?

Agent B: As a friend.

Ty: See a therapist.

[lilythelitten]

*Volume 1, late Chapter 2*

Logico: You consider me a friend?

Irratino: What else would I call you?

Logico: I don't know, an embarrassment? A way to rebel against your parents? A desperate cry for help? The possibilities are endless!
