Music for Original Works, A Radioactive Calamity of Love, Bombs & Gore and The UnTitledverse. In addition to this is a (extremely rough) Faith Seed art draft for Faithuary, that probably won't be finished this month unfortunately (important IRL stuff consuming my time). Listen and view below the cut:
In Wings And Horns, Xiang Ba'al is a Sloth Demon from the Sloth Ring of Hell, the only son of a Sloth mafia, and yet once Jezebel, a damned soul of a sinner (debatable since she was a young child), entered his life Xiang made the decision to cut ties off with his family to raise the young girl. However, he'd soon be back in a life of action once word of the Gods debating the necessity of a flawed Soulmate System reached Hell, this time as a father/daughter duo with Jezebel, going out of their way to hasten the process of dismantling the Soulmate System in the mortal realms by removing Soul Marks and equivalents off of those less fortunate. He does this as an act of justice for Jezebel, whose death and damnation was related to the failing of the Soulmate System.
"I'm here at the beginning of the end
Oh, the end of infinity with you
I'm here at the beginning of the end
Oh, the end of infinity with you
I'm done with having dreams
The thing that I believe
Oh, you drain all the fear from me
I'm done with having dreams
The thing that I believe
You drain the fear from me
'Cause you're the last of a dying breed
Write our names in the wet concrete
I wonder if your therapist knows everything about me
I'm here in search of your glory
There's been a million before me
That ultra-kind of love
You never walk away from
You're just the last of the real ones!"
In my Fallout 3 WIP called The Waters Of Life Flow, my Lone Wanderer OC Alph Dolen, in addition to Amata Almodovar, end up joining Marissa "Ress" Bishop in her exploration of the Capital Wasteland (or rather, her search for her older half-brother), at first beginning off as reluctant tour guides under a subtle threat of violence, before being strong armed into a traveling trio with Ress as their protection (after she realizes both Alph and Amata aren't locals), and eventually all mellowing out into friendlier and friendlier terms (especially once the duo push past Ress' overconfidence). Ress considers both Alph and Amata, but especially Alph, to be amongst her first and closest true friends. Even years after Amata's murder by Arcane Urias' hand, and the friendship break-up that caused between Ress and Alph, during A Symbol For A Better World (my Fallout 4 WIP), even though Amata's death is a sore spot between them, Ress and Alph still trust one another to help the other out of their boons (especially with Alph being ghoulified by this point). There's a longing between them, of wanting to re-establish their friendship again, but they still have a lot of healing to do (and Ress' mostly involves patricide).
"Switch on the sky, and the stars glow for you
Go see the world 'cause it's all so brand new
Don't close your eyes, 'cause your future's ready to shine
It's just a matter of time before we learn how to fly
Welcome to the rhythm of the night
There's something in the air you can't deny ("Deny!")
It's been fun, but now I've got to go
Life is way too short to take it slow
But before I go and hit the road
I gotta know, till then
When can we do this again? ("Oh oh, oh, oh!")
When can I see you again? ("Oh oh, oh, oh!")
When can we do this again? ("Oh oh, oh, oh!")
I gotta know
When can I see you again? ("When can I see you again?")
Joined at the hip, yeah, your sidekick needs you
Life is a trip, and the road map leads you
Look all around at the mountains you haven't climbed
It's just a matter of time before we learn how to fly
Welcome to the rhythm of the night
There's something in the air you can't deny!" ("Deny!")
By the end of the first half of The UnTitled Ventures saga, Joaquin Lockwood has acquired himself a nice little home with plenty of variety in room mates and familial ties, navigating being the new leader of the Village and slowly helping the Four Lords through their various issues. However, this comes with consequence, namely being that of a deteriorated relationship with Roy Lockwood, Maisie's great uncle, whom still hurts from the loss of Maisie to the BOWs. And when Roy takes Eveline in UnTitled Venture: Old Smoke, Joaquin comes across one of his most daring tests to his character.
"This party's pretty boring
I don't think it's for me
Lucy's already crashed out
She's on the spare settee
This air is getting so thin
Go down, go down, go down
The honey whiskey's kickin'
Go down, go down, go down
I think I better go, before I try something
I might regret, I might regret
I think I better go, before I try something
I might regret, I might regret
Black-hearted angels sunk me
With kisses on my mouth
There's poison in this water
The words are falling out
This air getting so thin
Go down, go down, go down
The honey whiskey's kickin'
Go down, go down, go down
I think I better go, before I try something
I might regret, I might regret
I think I better go, before I try something
I might regret, I might regret
I think I better go, before I try something
I might regret, I might regret
I think I better go, before I try something
I might regret, I might regret
But if you wanna free your body tonight
It's our secret, it's our secret
I think I better go, before I try something
I might regret, I might regret!"
And here's an art snippet for WIP Wednesday, art that is in the really rough stages of drafting right now. It's going to be a piece for Faithuary (the word being "Mantra" joined by the sentence "Truth will set you free"), depicting Faith at the center of the Eden's Gate logo (which in turn is also supposed to be the closest depiction to a "face" for the Voice). Anyway, here's what I've done thus far:
— @contentmusings’ faithuary — word cloud: white flowers ✨
white flowers always belonged to her. just like the breeze rushing through the plains on a warm afternoon; the butterflies, appearing so mysteriously just when he was about to think of her. ‘god always knows,’ he thought. smiling to himself while admiring the perfectly assembled bouquet, ignoring the pool of fresh blood that rested besides it. it wasn’t odd—beauty and the macabre were all part of the journey. for tears didn’t always mean pain. they could also mean joy.
as the white flowers brushed against his skin— tender, almost ticklish, clinging to his faded dark blue jeans— rareș looked up to meet with faith, who awaited him, every time the musician’s pilgrimage ended. there was admiration there, recognition, respect, perhaps. ‘you’re with the chosen ones that will bring salvation,’ there was a smile that could make his heart melt, the apparition of faith by ‘the word’ akin to something ethereal, god-like, almost causing a shudder because he couldn’t—he shouldn’t—make those comparisons ‘you will preach with song, you will lead the lost here—and you will help us in build a new world.’ her smile was gentle, hands soothing over her white laced dress. ‘i am so proud of you, my messenger.’
Unfortunately won’t be able to finish that Faith Art WIP for Faithuary. Will give a crack at it (and the others I’ve got planned) when time gives me a chance.
