Got a great ask about imagining the transition from Metamours to Paramours regarding the Hinge/Triad of Astarion/(tav)/Halsin focusing on the development of Halsin and Astarions relationship
I've been mulling it over and I'll keep that ask until I have more thoughts!! But I got it and I fully intend to answer it thanks for your patience
I haven’t been posting much here, but have all this art of my oc Sitka.
Sitka, 40, they/them
They are an oc I made for my friends Multitude AU where they are the kid of the mob boss, Maul. They are known for their cunning, manipulation, and speed.
Their Mates Tch (short red) and Sha (tall blue), as well as the Universe itself belongs to @genniidrominda
She’s awesome, go check her out, Sitka would not have existed without her <3
~~Story Beats Below~~
Sitka’s father Maul is a extremely corrupted Sans that broke himself in the process of giving himself the power in a universe within my friend’s AU. Through his travels he stole a Burgerpants from one of the Universes and proceeded to corrupt the MultiSwap universe until he was the one in charge of the Mafia.
BP is his only semblance of sentimentality left from who Sans used to be, and he is now just Maul. At some point BP got pregnant, and had <Name Redacted> and tried to keep the kid hidden from Maul for as long as he could. Around age 5 is when Sitka stumbled in and finally met their father, who promptly renamed them to Sitka.
Because Maul calls Burgerpants his “dame,” Sitka grew up calling BP their Mom. BP doesn’t seem bothered by it though. He is still Sitka’s Mom to this day, (and why I jokingly call BP Mommy haha)
Ever since, Sitka has been seeking their dad’s approval. BP managed to keep them out of the mafia lifestyle up until they were 20 and he could no longer stop them from making their own decisions. Sitka fell hard into the lifestyle, and whatever normalcy they experienced before they joined was broken out of them. They grew a sick obsession with their father in their pursuit of his affections, and lovingly called him Daddy until recently.
Sitka spent 20 years in the mafia, building their skills and gaining a name for themself. They are extremely fast, their magic type being speed. This magic they they use to run and climb quickly like a cat, and also use in their claws to add more punch to their attacks. It looks like streaks of orange light that follow their strikes. They are fiercely intelligent, and good at reading others.
They became Maul’s righthand thug, taking care of all the behind the scenes tasks like bookkeeping, banking, and interacting with the businesses under Maul’s ‘protection.’ They also spent a lot of their time on the field doing long cons where they infiltrated and gained the trust of their target before ultimately ending them or getting information out of them.
“There are no secrets from a bedded man.”
Their most recent task came up when an ex-mafia showed up. Tch who escaped while rescuing his younger brother, Sha, from the fighting ring, and left a lot of collateral damage in his wake years ago. Sitka was successful gain both men’s trust under the disguise of a teacher who meant well. Unlike the majority of their targets, Tch and Sha had actual compassion and demonstrated trust and respect towards Sitka that made bringing them in more difficult.
Ultimately, Sitka’s desire for their father’s approval won, and they brought just Tch in to him. Despite everything that Sitka did, it was never enough to make Maul actually see them. They were relegated to nothing the second Maul got what he wanted, and it broke their soul that they literally gave up a possibility at love for a man who wouldn’t even acknowledge them.
Broken souled and seeing Tch tortured, they devised a complicated plan to get the guy out, with a heavy risk of killing themself in the process. Tch, though having been betrayed and tortured badly, still came around and reassured Sitka that he loved them, this sealed the deal. Their scheme made it out like Sitka had killed Tch and ultimately Maul blastered Sitka out the window. They only survived because they had put their soul in a gift Sha had given them, a small plush named Ka, that they had tossed elsewhere in the room before Maul showed up.
BP found his kid, found the stuffed toy, and reunited their soul with their crumbling body, before getting the then freed boys to come take Sitka away from their universe. Maul under the impression that all three were dead now meant none of them had to run anymore so long as they stayed out of the universe.
In an attempted to regain his lost power, Maul tried to start tampering with the code of the universe again, but he is too corrupted to be able to make any major changes anymore. His only hope to ever gain full control lost because the only not corrupted strand of DNA was in his ‘dead’ child, Sitka. So long as Sitka never goes back, Maul lost most his power. They are devastated they can’t visit their mom or see their home, but they understand this is their burden.
Currently, Sitka is living with Tch and Sha in whitespace, with their friend Clk. Sitka has marked both men as their mates and they have a happy little hinge poly going. Sitka doesn’t know what they plan to do with their future, but they are dealing with losing their home, and starting to universe travel with their mates while they find themself. All they know is that only living a domestic home life is kind of boring, so they are definitely looking for their next big project.
--And that is where we are currently in this RP. Yes, it has been a very exciting and complex roleplay that has been going for awhile. We have plans for the future, but nothing is set in stone yet, and right now Sitka is just learning who they are outside of the Mafia while drawing closer to their mates. :)
