Finally finished this sketchpage thingie I made with Aydee and my friend’s character Oktai!!
I love how one day he randomly suggested they could kiss and I proceeded to spend the remaining week going insane after the idea and furiously drawing this. Romancing the local vampire goth mage 🦇
The screams had filled his little workspace... but it had to be done. He had to deal with the clients request and he had been told to do so in very specific, brutal ways. The Miqozen had since cleaned up and was beginning to make his way to go to his chambers upstairs when he stopped just before the door leading to the next room.
Things were weighing heavily on his mind and the pause made his mind wander. Darker places and darker thoughts... he didn’t want to think on them for long so Lusaut simply pressed his hand and pushed the door open walking into the next room.
“Finished already?”
Lusaut looked to the Au Ra who was glancing over his shoulder from the table, a couple potion vials in his hands as he spoke. The Miqozen sighed out, stretching and rolling his shoulders “It was a simple enough task... the body will need to be disposed of later.”
“Of course Master Durendaire...” Oktai let out before he watched as his employer walked around and took to the nearby seat... “Something troubles you?”
The question was... unexpected. Did he look bothered and upset? Or did he look like he was troubled? Perhaps he did... Lusaut wasn’t always the best at hiding his thoughts and Oktai had been with him long enough to know when something was wrong. They didn’t just share moments of intimacy together after all... Lusaut would confide in the Au Ra when he was trouble “Do I really look like something troubles me?”
“You do...” it was a simple remark from the Au Ra as he carefully set down the vials that he had been working on “This was... a job that you seemed more reluctant to take. In fact... you haven’t quite been the same since your visitor.” he added before movement caught his attention and soon enough the Miqozen was wrapping arms around the Au Ra and hugging against him. A moment of weakness and vulnerability that was rarely seen from Lusaut “Master Durendaire?”
“I don’t want to be alone tonight Oktai...” the words were barely above a very hushed whisper... “Please don’t let me be alone tonight...” Lusaut muttered as he pressed his face into the Au Ra’s chest “I don’t trust myself alone right now...”
Finally had a chance to paint! I dusted off my new tablet (yes, it’s almost been exclusively in the box since Feb…) and went for it!
Oktai is an OC from my Reader x Kurama fic, Embracing the Seasons. He is a demon the RC meets when she is kidnapped and brought to serve her ancestral father. They become friends, and she comes to rely on him for moral and emotional support.
