A crossover artwork I did featuring my OC, Jactis, hanging out with @princerevelucide’s OC, Eade! This was a blast to go all out on! The lighting from multiple fairies presented a fun challenge!

"It's Jack Lazuli, your roy--" I supplied my name readily but stumbled over the Prince's name. He told me to call him by name but all of my training still said that would be so improper. I was torn. Do I listen to what the prince said or what I was trained to do? "Pri.... er Noctis." I mentally kicked myself for stuttering like that in front of the prince, who actually looked different in real life than in all the pictures. (jack 1/2)

The Prince actually looked pretty normal and approachable, just like any other guy our age (he was a year younger than me after all), straight out of school and just kind of figuring things out. Or maybe I was just projecting. I finally let go of the flour that the Prince took from me. “So what do you need this for anyway? We cook for you here after all.” (Jack, 2/2)

The way you happen to stumble was a little amusing to Noct, but he does his best to hide it by keeping a straight face. He had a feeling he knew what you were fretting over, which was most likely the fact that you were taught to address him formally like everyone else. If anything, he’d rather keep things casual between other people and himself. Being addressed as royalty…didn’t really make him comfortable. It holds him up to a pedastal, and he didn’t want to seem like that to others.

“I was actually getting this for my adviser. You know the one with glasses and tall hair, kinda strict when it comes to my duties…Well anyways, he asked me to get this for him because he’s preparing something…If you want, you can watch him in action. He’s a good cook, probably the best around.”

Start and end pages of a sketchbook! You can really see the difference.

Jactis often loses fights against other Souls, with poor matchmaking (against Solui) being the most frequent cause.

They got better.

The problem: Wrath was too busy drawing funny cat and mouse fan art to draw his OCs.

The solution: Get them to draw themselves.

Results varied greatly.

Solui and squad but they are all chibis! There’s something neat about seeing them all together like this.

Some old Jactis drawings

More concept art of my OCs? Yeah, sure. Jactis is up next. Sneak peek, and more under the cut.

Mostly done in 2019 as well, around the same time as Solui.

Oh, and an early cameo for Kara! Jactis had long hair back in their academy days, but they decided to change their look at a certain point...

OK so on one hand this is the prince and I know I have to follow his order, but on the other hand, I'm lowkey intimidated by Ignis and my journeyman chef self won't allow me to throw away perfectly good food. I hesitate for a bit before making a point to turn away from Noctis and continuing with the task Ignis had me do. "Finished!" I said -Jack

Noctis blinks at the sudden betrayal of who he thought was a new friend, but anyone who wouldn’t throw away vegetables for him was no friend of his… Okay, maybe that was a little harsh, even for Noctis. Instead, he just sighs to himself and realizes he’ll just have to put up with the vegetables, unfortunately.Ignis walks over to you and glances at the meat. “Well done. If you do not mind, can you turn the oven on to 475 degrees?” he asks while taking the meat so he can properly season it on his own counter workspace.
