hard to move on when you have a reminder of your mistakes forever on your back

So, I finally finished this fanart! I’m still going strong with the faeu fixation, and it’s giving me a ton of inspo for things.

I have a little story for them in mind, but my time is being sucked up by exams period and university stuff. So, long story short, i want to draw and write a ton of things, but i cant.

Anyway, the little fae Night is holding is my oc Humm. The story of this art is, to make it brief, that they have a bet going on and she is losing. So, she tried to pull a little prank thinking of outsmarting him, and obviously failed. I dont want to spoil to much of this given that i want to write a little oneshot of them, but that’s a good summary.

Faeu is owned by @owl-bones and @antlered-prince. The official blog of the au being @valrayne-faeu.

I hope yall have a nice day!✨

I had to finally jump in and create a Fae au Umbra, Yapping + character stuff + Extra art below the cut!

Fae au was created by Rayne and Valdis, you can find more information over at @valrayne-faeu

He's a veil dragon- A small group of draconic magic users who create, produce and take care of The Veil that keeps the fae world and the human world 'seperate'. They also keep an eye on the entrances to the Fae world, though if they actually chase off invaders or simply let them pass is up to the dragon. They have both a larger fully dragon form and a smaller bipedal form they can take at will! Historically they are not seen in the Fae courts (their actual origins are unknown, but they are not Fae, they are something entirely Other) The war forced them to take sides and scramble for a place of safety.

Umbra joins Nightmare and his winter court, his offical title is 'envoy' bewteen the court and the Veil dragons. However the winter court only has Umbra, so his place is largely symbolic. His main 'duties' are ones he would carry out as a Veil dragon anyway, the official title is more there so he doesn't get bothered while he does his work. Rarely, he also advises the king as his knowledge of the enterances and magics of the fae realm are expansive.

As veil dragons are not known to live among Fae little is known about them, Umbra is one of the first and he often gets mistaken as a fae- with that assumption also coming with the assumption that he cannot lie, or touch iron etc- Which isnt true! Umbra won't correct anyone with this assumption, and he's happy to use it to his advantage if needed. (Just because he isn't a fae doesn't mean he can't be tricky!)

When Umbra isn't tending to the upkeep of the veil he can be found tutoring young Fae in illusion and fog magic, his specialties! Otherwise he lounges around Nightmares court, as serious and cold as he tries to appear- Umbra is a big fan of gossip and often makes the rounds to get any new knews that's popped up.

When Umbra isn't feeling as sociable he can be found exploring the woods of the winter court (Don't tell anyone but....he really likes hunting squirrels in dragon form....how embarrassing...) The one and only 'deal' Umbra has made for a humans freedom was made through this. An old man who had gotten lost in the fae realms, who had nothing to his name to trade, looking for a way home. Normally Umbra doesn't give such humans a way out, preferring to send them to the king but. the man had a house sprite with him, Umbra couldn't resist the trade- This tricky fox demon for his escape.

(A house sprite is created when an ordinary fox steals too many chickens from coops- It grows chicken legs and turns into a devil. If you manage to catch one and tie a peice of cloth around its neck, it is then bound to you and forced to do your bidding) (Design and Lore originally by 2lainn on toyhouse!)

Umbra's house sprite is named Twee, and shes extremely spoiled, has never picked up a broom or a sponge her entire time under Umbras care. He insults her all the time for being sneaky and bad, but he's the one spoiling her so~

thinking about tithe again...... hough.........

What a blessing it is, he thinks, to have known you as a human first.

Else he might never have admired the wild magic of your change.

You’ve adjusted remarkably well to the inevitability of your status as fae-taken; bearing the new weight of your wings with a quiet dignity, settling into them like the soothing embrace of an old friend. The exquisite lines of your form grow ever more familiar with each passing day, filling him with pride and longing in equal measure.

The realm has claimed you, as he has.

His eyelight traces along the bare edge of your wing—and he shudders, forcing back the sudden, raw desire to follow that line with the tip of a glossy black claw. All at once he is overcome, possessed by the image of those wings, spread out before and beneath him. The declaration of Body and Soul together, for all the world to see:

That you belong here… with him.
