CHAPTERS 1-10 OF LONG-TERM INVESTING ARE UP.

This illus is for chapter 10. I was going to add more blood but I got tired. Long-term Investing is a sequel fic to Kizuki Eye, which was an EnDouma fic exploring them losing literally everything that ever mattered to them as characters.

Read below cut for more information.

In the new fic, they're without purpose after the demon war ended. Douma wants to die but Enmu is desperate to keep him. In poor summary, Douma wants to have a baby about it because he needs something that also needs him and doesn't majorly conflict with his delusions the way Enmu does, and Enmu enables him if it means the obligation of a child will keep Douma alive. (I promise it makes more sense in context).

Some of you on my blog may be familiar with Tomi, who was the design I made for their child. Long-term Investing explains the how and why of Tomi, who is not very well and neither are its parents.

Those of you who were hoping for "aww the cute baby"... There will be some of that, but mostly it's "ohh, you should not have had the cute baby." A lot of the fic also explores what it's like for two demons to try and live undercover in the world constraints posed by the end of demonkind.

Tomi should debut on chapter 16 if all goes according to my fic outline. I would also like to caution against taking previous Tomi posts from my blog as canon to this story, as many elements have changed for the sake of a cohesive narrative. Also, if you've ever been pregnant or have any kind of pregnancy trauma/are sensitive to children in peril, I wouldn't recommend you read this. Being a demon baby is not easy, to make a long story short. Making a demon baby is also not easy. If pregnancy as a concept also makes you uncomfortable, I further wouldn't recommend you read this.
