I feel like Devlin had a phenomenal emo phase in his youth. Black eyeliner. Dyed his hair. Got about a hundred piercings all self done. Maybe even a tattoo. Like look at his undercut. That is ex scene kid who suddenly got a strict job and needed to chop off his coloured hair behaviour.

I need everyone to lock in right now because if I see one more person call my boy Devlin 'Dork' York a twink I might actually crash out.

DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT A FORGEMASTER IS?!?! ALL OF THEM ARE BUFF AF. YOU KNOW WHY??? BECAUSE THEY'RE BLACKSMITHS. REALLY COOL FANTASY BLACKSMITHS.

Let me give you some examples of popular Forgemasters as a reference:

EACH ONE BUILT LIKE A DAMN TANK!

So if anyone is drawing fanart of Devlin York I better see that man ripped beyond believability. Especially because he has to carry around a massive metal arm all the time. And don't even get me started on Albus.

DEVLIN YORK COMMISSION by @yhelsstuff

You know what... I am tipsy enough to continue the Bastard Warrior body type chat.

Albus should be shorter than Devlin. And should be less muscular. Not only is he canonically malnourished from his bastard upbringing but he takes load pills to provide him with nourishment. I sincerely doubt that gives him all the nutrients he needs to be in tip top shape.

Also if you look at what he depends on for his fighting style I'd be willing to bet that Albus is prioritising agility over base strength. So sure he is muscular but probably in his lower body more than his arms or back. I also theorize this is part of how Albus knew Devlin was possessed. Devlin was more than strong enough to take on any manual labour by himself with his forge master build. So when Albus was asked to help not only with the machinery but also with carrying stuff. He knew shit was wack. Plus Devlin when possessed by a demon with knowledge of fighting absolutely beat the life out of Albus.

What I'm trying to say is put Albus and Devlin in a boxing ring with a little bit of coaching and Devlin would one hit KO his half brother. No notes.

I actually love how Albus is all 'Totally no judgment if you like Devlin. Makes sense. Mhm. 100%' but if the sister told him in that moment that she had a thing for his brother Albus would have proceeded to have an extraordinary crash out, cry himself to sleep and proceed to come up with the most irritating jokes about how Devlin and the Sister are together. Like some kind of reverse really shitty wing man.

"You must take after father, Vinnie. Winning over sister's of sindergon left and right. Just make sure to wrap it before you tap it. Don't want any more bastards running around eh?" - Albus

"What are you-? Actually... I don't want to know what goes on in your mind Albus." - Dork

I love the fact that canonically both Devlin and Albus can't read. They really are both raw dogging life with a metal hand / sword and a dream huh?

[umbratheshadowfamiliar]

I feel like whenever Albus does something phenomenally stupid Devlin bolts up like a meerkat. He could be sound asleep in his bed and suddenly:

I NEED DEVLIN YORK!! HE OCCUPIES MY EVERY WAKING SECOND

I HAVE DRAWN THREE DIFFERENT METAL ARMS TO TRY TO SEE HOW HIS WOULD WORK
