I’ve been hoarding these drawings and ideas for a while but now I am finally ready to share. SPECIAL THANKS TO @ladysindrak, ME LOVELY WIFE FOR HELPING CO-WRITE IT WITH ME, ILY BABE.
Le story goes:
30 years have passed since we last saw Jack in season 4. He has started to realise that he does not age, but continues his quest, his hope starting to dwindle. Luckily, he still has his sword by his side, but no one has heard or seen Aku in years. The demon appears to have locked himself in the safety of his fortress, simply wishing for the samurai to die already. More out of boredom than interest, he visits his cult, whom he had given his essence to for worshipping purposes. Only to find that not only had the High Priestess apparently given birth to seven of his own children, but had been brutally training them, borderline torturing them for their mistakes. Horrified, Aku panicked, grabbing the children and leaving (although not before destroying the place in anger). Unaware that the priestess was still alive, Aku intended to just leave the children, believing that they would be ‘free’. However, a strange attachment had formed, and, despite his better judgement, decided to ‘keep’ them. Upon arriving back ‘home’, he promptly realised that he had no idea how to look after a child, much less an entire group. Unable to find anyone even half competent or unafraid of him, he kidnaps ‘invites’ Jack to tell him everything he needs to know. However, fatherhood isn’t as simple as following a few words of advice, and Jack ends up having to stay and teach the demon How To Parent. Eventually, Aku decides that in order for his girls to have the opportune childhood, they would need two parents in their lives, at least from what he had observed on tv… Reluctantly, he asks Jack to fill in the other role, originally planning to kill him once the girls had grown up. Jack accepts, only for the sake of the girls, who he had grown attached to as well. The daughters quickly take to calling him ‘Papa’, after Aku had already taken the name ‘Daddy’.
Our favourite scatbot is the designated nanny, along with his partner, a steadily recovering Demongo. The two refer to themselves as the kid’s ‘uncles’.
Meanwhile, as the days pass, Aku finds himself struggling with strange new feelings, both towards his children and Jack. His desire to eradicate him begins to fade, replaced with a need to have him by his side.
Jack is starting to see a different side of Aku, beginning to doubt his perception of the demon. Perhaps, if he manages to teach him how to be good, Jack could convince Aku to let him return home, but his own feelings betray him, making him want to stay with the emotional clingy shapeshifter and his seven darling children.
Gonna post art in a seperate post!
Finally posting more stuff from my au! Here we have the girls’ adult demon forms. I would trust them to fight against the forces of evil. Mostly their dad over who gets the last cookie.
