I was messing around on AO3 and discovered that my first subscription was for my beloved @nyamadermont So, in honor of how much his works (and his friendship) inspire me, I wanted to make him a drawing ✨
[Tumblr has been sensitive about certain things, so yes, caution is advised]
⋆.˚✮🔥 🔥✮˚.⋆
I read all three parts and hopefully I can illustrate one for the others!! This is inspired by Splendor in the Dark, ah, how I love Linzolt 🙏🏾😭
In short, they are ✨enemies with feelings✨ jsjsjsjjs
6. from the hurt prompts but for Lin in your vampire Linko AU?
A little late, hehe, but I got something!!!
"Red Flood"
The storms in Republic City were disastrous, flooding the streets and shaking the sea.
People ran to take shelter so as not to be swept away by the water, boats were abandoned in ports waiting for the spirits to be good and not let them sink, when Mako was still a human he hated the rainy seasons, his little brother often ended up sick and shivering in an alley... What a time those had been.
Now he wandered peacefully without being affected by the temperature, he felt the water slide over his body, impregnate every centimeter of his clothes, even the weight of the chains that hung from his belt increased considerably. What then was that heat that surrounded his hands? Mako looked at them, he was soaked in blood, as if he had immersed his hand in the chest of some unsuspecting person, the water tried to wash away his sin but his skin was an expert at keeping the evidence of the crime attached. Mako advanced further remembering that he was in the middle of a hunt, no longer like that helpless child that others abused for benefits, no, now he was the hunter and his victim would not get his way.
The subway was underground, the stairs that descended looked like waterfalls with all the water they received, the system of gutters and drains always did its best to prevent flooding. Workers were usually evacuated, no one would risk having an accident underground… Neither would Lin, but she couldn't be picky. She had never run away from a vampire! Leaning on her shoulder was Zoltan, he had a deep wound in his abdomen that did not stop spilling blood, Lin could see how the hand that the man supported to stop the blood also kept his intestines inside... When did her life start to include this type of monsters?
—Where are we going?
—The 801 stop… 801A… There's a tunnel, we'll be s-safe.
Beifong doubted that by “we will be” he also meant her, if she had learned anything it was that humans were nothing more than appetizers that they never tired of playing with. Could he get something from Zolt if she helped him get out of this alive? Was he even alive? Pain and pleasure were no strangers to him. But could someone be human only through their emotions? A couple of extra footsteps joined the splash, Lin looked over her shoulder and saw no one, she held on tighter to Zolt to walk faster towards the indicated stop, her clothes weighed her down terribly and her body was terribly cold, the bulletproof vest was not the most waterproof accessory available to her but at least she had prevented a pair of daggers from piercing her back. Saikhan wouldn't believe a word of her! If she came out alive to tell it.
They were finally able to see the sign, the water was beginning to exceed three centimeters in height on the platforms and the tracks were completely covered. Would such a deluge be related to these clans of monsters? Nothing seemed impossible in those circumstances.
The other pair of footsteps disappeared and Lin managed to ask where the tunnel was before feeling Zolt knock her to the side using his weight. Traitor bastard! The man put a hand on Lin's jaw, trying to uncover her neck while his body pinned her down. Idiot! Lin was not one of his average victims, she managed to free one of her legs and use it to push him, her strength did not match his and the feeling of his guts sliding around Beifong's leg made her stomach turn. The struggle lasted only a few seconds, Zolt's body weight disappeared in a second, Lin sat up, discovering a sharp pain in one of her legs. Was it broken? She ended up sitting on the ground, her weapon had slipped into the water and in the depths of the tracks two bodies too large to be people were dueling, spurts of blood emerging made her reflect: What was she going to do against those monsters? She began to crawl in the opposite direction, she had to find a corner to splint her leg and escape, if she hurried she could seek help at the State University, it was less than a kilometer away, of course, Lin's mind was racing with her plans until she heard something come out of the water, the shadow it cast looked like a dog of biblical dimensions, the dark silhouette was deforming until it was a man again. Lin gritted her teeth when he grabbed her leg and turned her around. The pain that passed through her left her speechless. Those amber eyes that had been with her for almost a year looked at her with a mixture of helplessness and longing. He had a wound on his neck as if they had tried to slice it.
Mako took one of her arms and uncovered it, he slid his lips over her wrist and that familiar double sting went through her, it was just a sip before he released her, the wound on his neck began to close as Mako took her from the ground, Lin had so many things to demand from his, so many to question his... She would need to live to do it.
And that would depend on whether Mako forgave her.
So I have these designs of the two girls (there are three of them) and a couple of interesting facts about them because I don't handle the tension in this.
🪼⋆.ೃ࿔*:・Meiling (Phailin)🪼⋆.ೃ࿔*:・
𓇼 Her real name is Meiling Beifong, chosen at random by Lin at birth. Her false name is Phailin, chosen by Ty-Lee when she began her training as a Kyoshi Warrior.
𓇼She is sixteen years old, she was born quite sick due to the level of alcoholism that Lin was dealing with at the time, she had a twin who died under strange circumstances.
𓇼She was with a foster family for at least her first two years until Zolt stepped in and took her into his care.
𓇼Storm (her bison) has been with her since she was eight years old; they met when she got lost in the forest during a storm. They're quite close and equally vain.
𓇼Spiritually she is quite bad, like Tenzin, but she covers it up with her various practices such as rituals and talismans.
𓇼She's always been aware that Zolt isn't her biological father; she met Katara when she first airbent at age six. However, she's never wanted to meet Tenzin.
𓇼She wants to go to college to become a lawyer, so she spends a lot of time at the Gaoling estate learning the law books her mother used for her work.
⋆。゚🌊。 Hotaru (Tamara) ⋆。゚🌊。
★Her real name is Hotaru Beifong, chosen by Zolt. Her false name is Tamara, chosen by Katara when she began her Kyoshi Warrior studies.
★She is thirteen years old, has always been a pretty healthy and lively girl, and is the life of the party in her family.
★She's a fierce lesbian, inheriting her father's flirtatious ways. She's bothered by the fact that she can't have a serious girlfriend due to her family's lifestyle.
★In her head, Lin is biologically the daughter of Katara and Aang because she can't think of any other way for her older sister to be an airbender.
★Of the three, she is the one who has been to Republic City the most times with Zolt, and she is the only one of her sisters who was known or seen by her father's associates.
★She has a hyper fixation on animals, especially large ones. If he could, she would steal his sister's bison and dreams of having his own zoo.
★After Zolt lost his powers, she became his personal lighter. He is extremely embarrassed that his daughter offers to light his cigarettes, so he has stopped smoking a lot.

In conclusion, there is much more in my trunk of things for this AU, I will name it in the future.
As the third girl revealed, her name is Suirei Beifong, fake name Kaoru✨
“Do you prefer zip ties or electrical tape? No reason not to be a gentleman about a kidnapping.” [Zolt and Lin?]
This is something quick; I was debating between two ideas and this sandwich came out as the result TT
"La Cita"
Details make the man.
Growing up on the streets, one often overlooks these basic principles. However, Sozan made sure his heir remembered that every step was significant on the path to his destiny. That's why the walls were adorned with that beautiful burgundy wallpaper he'd seen in her bachelorette apartment the first time he tried to kidnap her. He also acquired some original paintings from Gaoling's vast collection of Celestial Ladies. It cost him some men! Now it were neatly arranged on the walls. And the plants! Of course, how could he forget them? Zolt knew how much Lin loved them; her apartment was overflowing with them.
The sofa, on the other hand, lacked a backrest. It was wide and leather, perhaps not the most comfortable when you were sweating, but it wasn't its fault that Beifong was so alarmed. Had she overdosed? Shirsu's toxin wasn't for novices; a couple of extra grams and the poor recipient would pass into eternal sleep. But Zolt had rehearsed! After they stopped dying, he decided it was time to put his plan into action. Since his esteemed police chief had decided to avoid his invitations for years, he had to change his strategy. He thoroughly studied her routine so he could approach her quietly during one of her shift changes. No one would miss her for the next seventy-two hours. Wasn't that great? Her bad work habits were now working in his favor.
Lin was sprawled on the couch, glaring at him with immeasurable hatred. In at least half an hour, the toxin's effects would begin to wear off, so Zolt sat down beside her. They would have a nice dinner, followed by some intimate time. Even though it was their first date, it was best not to be prudish. Besides, he had bought her a splendid dress; it would be fun to wear it, like treating himself to a well-deserved present after all his hard work.
—So, darling, which do you like better? The zip ties or the electrical tape? I promise neither Will come undone.
