Anyone interested in a small story kinda one-shot of my OCs (the main gang specifically)? Ngl itâs been tempting to show yâall a snippet of them. But hey; rather be safe than sorry. Itâll most likely be posted here first and then maybe on A03, but weâll see.
Hey everyone! Ik only one person actually responded to my post regarding this yesterday, but I still wanna give it a try. My writing isnât probably the most âprofessionalâ, but at least I wanna show yâall the world Iâve created. Hope you all enjoy!
Quick TW: profanity & discussion of (supernatural) hunting, experimentation and taxidermy
âRemind me why weâre here, sir.â
The decently-sized office of a busy barâs silence was interrupted by the voice of a stern woman. Amongst her sat four others; two across from her and two more on either side. Separating the pair of a tan man and his pale company from the others was a desk scratched with deep claw marks, splinters creating their own claws in the marked wood.
With a rasping hum, the man sighs, speaking. âYou always get suspicious of me whenever I call you over, huh Tess?â He almost coos with the slightest tinge of seduction. A subtle show of his partial bloodline. The voice his mouth uttered was lowly deep, wheezing with sharp edges as if he was barely possessing any air in his lungs to make a sound.
Tessâ nose scrunched at the lewdness in this manâs voice, disgust piercing her words as she answers. âCan you blame me, sir? Youâre always up to something, especially when you call us all here.â
âI second that.â Piping in was a younger person who stood left of Tess, their glasses being pushed up to face the man at the desk. âNo offense, sir..but youâre a mischievous devil.â
âMischievous is a massive understatement.â Tess mutters with a roll of her eyes.
To the right was a darkly red-skinned woman who sat on the floor, watching with yellowy-green eyes. She faces Tess while listening to her and the other person farthest from her side, adding in her two cents. âI donât think Mr. Quince would put us in actual danger. Besides, chaos makes things a bit more..well, fun!â
Quince smiles as the assistance of his fellow demonic, but it fades away with a click of his tongue. âTess, Evgeni..I thought you knew me better than that. Nikimi seems to know me better than both you peas in the cynical pod combined.â
âSheâs literally the same type of kind you are, sir.â Evgeni sighs out. âAnd immortal. Of course she would be most supportive of your antics.â
Tess pause in thought before facing the final member in the room across from her. âHyku..why did he call us over?â She asks, her bitter tone temporarily softened by the sweetness of which she tries to replace it with.
Hyku doesnât vocally budge out the answer. Sitting on Quinceâs lap, a mere trill of a cat rustles from his throat outwards. He stayed still as well, acting like a cat sitting on its favored owner.
âLeave him outta this.â Quince spat out with a venomous growl, his fingers moving through the hair of his accompanying dearest. âHe came on his own anyway, so he really didnât need to be here for what weâll be talking about.â
âWhich is..?â Nikimi inquires, her question more kinder than her peers.
Quince takes a deep breath. âThe fucking vermins are out on the hunt again.â
âProject Rat?â Tess slightly corrects.
Quince nods.
Evgeni groans at that. âGreat. Those bastards really canât learn the lesson, canât they?â
âApparently not, Ev.â Tess hums.
Nikimi couldnât help but tilt her head, scratching it in slightly confusion. âI thought they went to experimenting on us a handful of years ago..â
âTaxidermy season, Niki.â Evgeni explains. âAt least thatâs my guess.â
âAnd to think that merely making it illegal would stop them..â Tess adds with cynical sarcasm.
Hyku trills through the natural purring caused by Quinceâs hair playing, tilting his head in thought as his shut eyes squeezed a bit; a strange form of âblinkingâ perhaps.
âSo what do we do, sir?â Nikimi asks with a tilting head. âI mean, I can technically take them out, but I..donât think you wanna take it to the level of military-level clearing just yet.â
âCorrect.â Quince states. âAs much as I want to pulverize the shitheads outta existence, even Iâm aware of how unsuccessfully dangerous that could be.â
âThen what do you suggest we do instead?â Evgeni questions, squinting their eyes.
Quince faces Tess. âCan you get information on their database?â
âYes, I can, but itâs gonna take me a few days to get in there.â Tess answers.
Quince hums. âIâll take it. In the meantime, I donât want anyone of you out in the city for too long.â
âWhat, you think they could be doing it in the open?â Evgeni questions, snorting at the hypothetical with an eyeroll. âI donât think theyâre that stupid, sir.â
âWhile I agree with that there, Ev..I think they would be ballsy enough to make themselves that much of a public threat.â Tess states. âIâm more suspiciously concerned about what theyâre selling in the black markets. Especially if it is Taxidermy season.â
Nikimi perks her head up at that, hopping onto her feet and standing at attention. âI can check that out.â She suggests while looking at Tess, slightly glancing at Quince as she speaks. âIâve been in there before after all.â
âYou really sure you wanna take the risk?â Evgeni asks, raising an eyebrow.
Nikimi nods. âAt the very least, they canât kill me.â
Evgeni sighs at that, barely holding back a chuckle as they shake their head. âYouâre an oddball, Niki.â
âBut it could help exponentially.â Tess expresses, facing Nikimi fully. âIf you can retrieve any of the shit theyâre selling, thatâll make them lose out money on that wager at the very least.â
Nikimi nods, saluting with a smile.
âAt least we have that plan in motion.â Quince assesses, nodding in approval. âBut mark this. If any of those fuckers try to get any of you..give them no mercy. They donât deserve that.â
âWell aware, sir.â Tess replied.
Evgeni merely nods in agreement with Tess.
âGood.â Quince nods back before looking at Hyku. Holding him close, he thinks before coming to a conclusion. âIâm not letting them use you again, sweetheart. Not on my watch..â
Heute ist es nicht besser mit dem Wetter aber dem Balu störts ja nicht. Schatzi und Simba sind mit mir in der Stube und warten bis meine mum zum einheizen beginnt! LĂ€uft bei mir...đ€Łđđ»đŸâ„ïž

Since itâs still Pride Month, decided to reveal more characters of DINYâs gender, pronouns and sexualities. These are some side characters + antagonists.
Like last time, links will be provided for some of these in case people gets curious. Enjoy!
For an early celebration of Pride Month (Ik itâs early, but still), I thought Iâd share the official genders, pronouns and sexualities of the main cast of DINY! I will provide available links to definitions for some of them in case anyone gets curious. Enjoy and happy (early) pride!
