Finished my NSMB map

Tumblr is gonna destroy the image quality, so you won't see the words, but it's an average town. Janus's bar is on the north side of main street closest to the beach. Logan's office is in the building north of city hall. That's about all you need to know for now. :)

OwO Mayhaps Roman backstory in your new serial killer au?

You mean NSMB? Absolutely.

Warnings: homophobia, stalking

Roman and Remus were raised by their grandmother after their parents disappeared mysteriously the day after they were born. Their grandmother, Abigail Princeton, was a prominent member of the community who had no time for shenanigans. Yeah, these two got in trouble a lot, especially Remus. Roman was her favorite, and she showed it. She would buy him nicer things than what Remus got, mostly. Not that Remus minded, because he and Roman shared everything. They were close as could be. By the time puberty hit, both of them very much knew they were gay. Their grandmother, a staunch conservative, could never know, so they made friends with a couple of girls and paid them out of their allowances to be their fake girlfriends occasionally. Roman, in the meantime, fell for a boy. I haven't named him yet, but I will now. We'll call him Matthew Hearst. And Roman fell hard. He became friends with Matthew and would do anything he said. The problem was that Matthew was a bit of a delinquent. When he asked Roman to steal, Roman did. And Roman got caught. He was grounded for three months. When those three months were up, he asked Matthew out. Matthew blew up, calling him a freak, and proceeded to avoid him. But Roman wasn't mad at him. He was still infatuated. He continued to do what could only be described as stalking Matthew for months, until Remus finally found out about it and stepped in. It took a lot of convincing, but Roman stopped. The next school year, sophomore year, another guy was the object of Roman's affections. Again, Remus had to intervene. Junior year, there was another. Remus stopped Roman from taking it too far. Senior year, shortly after they turned 18, Abigail died. She left the house to Roman. To spite the old lady, and because Remus was actually better with finances, he signed the house over to Remus. Both of them had started working at this point, both freelance, but their inheritance was enough that it would cover bills for years. After graduation, Remus made friends with Logan and went on to photograph crime scenes for detectives. Roman continued to work freelance, mostly drawing p*rn and furry art for commissions. Not that there's anything wrong with either of those things, it's just what seems to make the most commission money. When Janus moved into town, Remus became friends with him, but Roman never met him because Roman didn't drink and didn't bother with Remus's friends much. Roman had his own best friend, Patton. When Remus dragged him along to Janus's bar one night, though, Roman ordered a drink just as an excuse to talk to the beautiful man behind the counter. Remus, knowing Roman's... stalker-y history, asked if Roman liked Janus. Roman lied.

Pintroverts in NSMB

Proportions are hard, so Nico just gets to be small.
