Trouble in Paradise

I was on the perfect cocktail of chemicals to actually focus enough to draw today! Papaghoul!!

i really liked your v/umbra fic. what other shenanigans have they gotten into? has v adopted any of umbra's ghoulish quirks? is umbra discovering human things that she likes? :3

:D

Perpetua has always been somewhat ghoulish- he's downright offputting to some humans of the clergy, much like ghouls are (which is not really the ghouls's fault, it's just that the telepathy ghouls use to communicate happens to activate the fight or flight feeling in most human brains), they move oddly, they stare unblinking and stands still in shadows... Umbra's actually taken up those last two because of Perpetua's influence. For Umbra, everything Perpetua does is perfect and good, so she copies them. She's also, like, twelve feet tall when fully unglamoured, so that's a hell of a thing to run in to when a bishop or partitioner is scuttling down the hall to the vending machines and bumps in to the largest ghoul standing like a massive gargoyle, albeit a gargoyle with her tail wrapped around the current Papa... Umbra is very protective of Perpetua and tends to pick them up with her bony tail when she senses they're upset.

Most of the sheannigans the two have gotten into mostly do with Perpetua's disregard for decorum, Umbra's disregard for sibling Special's rambling speeches about why constant glamour is important on tours. More than once Frater's gotten a call from the band's road crew about structural damage caused by Umbra grabbing Perpetua (suffering from anything from a sensory overload to a flubbed line during rehearsals) and holding him in her ribcage as she climbed to the ceiling of whatever venue they were in... Frater has to add money to the "oops we fucked some shit up" card (Special called it that once and it stuck much to the chagrin of everyone else), the road crew has to coax Umbra down with shiny trinkets and, once she and Perpetua are safely on the ground, Lux (the huge grucifix lighting fixture) is activated to compel immediate shapeshifting (the lights on stage have always been part of an obfuscation tactic, but starting around the end of the Prequelle era, Archbishop Necropolitus Cracoviensis was asked to work up some arcane sigils to etch into the fixtures to further keep the illusions in check)
