I recently came back to the Hellsing fandom and finally decided to write a fanfiction that has been living in my head for about 15 years.
It took me this long mostly because I was always more of a math person, and writing never came naturally to me. But after many courses, a lot of practice, and a lot of āokay, maybe I can actually do this,ā I finally started.
This ship is very special to me. Honestly, this whole anime is special to me. Hellsing was the first anime I knew I was watching as anime. I donāt really count shows like Naruto in the same way, because those aired on TV for me and, as a kid, I just understood them as cartoons.
And Aluseras was the very first ship little 12-year-old me ever had.
Yes, yes, I know Hellsing is absolutely not a kidsā show, but different times, okay.
Because this story and this ship mean so much to me, I eventually want to bind this fanfiction into a personal book for myself. And since it will be something special, I thought it would be lovely to include art with it too.
So I started looking for artists.
This is the first commission I got for the fic, and I am so happy with it. I already have two more commissions in progress as well. Hopefully, one day I can even sneak some of my own art into the book too, once I progress beyond the stickman stage.
The beautiful art was done by:

And for any wandering souls who might want to give the fic a try:

The story is an Alucard/Seras AU set before modern Hellsing canon, in a medieval-inspired setting.
fanfiction is so beautiful because what do you mean i can read the same characters falling in love 92737389 times in different scenarios and not get tired of it.
