Please tell me more about Shadowhand Essik
Essik: so who's in charge here?
Fjord: well it's usually whoever yells the loudest.
How do you think Essik and Molly would interact if Molly was still alive and they met?
Oh boy, I have a lot of feelings for Essik and Molly, bc I am a crackship disaster. I also have a lot of feelings for Essik/Caleb/Molly, bc I am also a sucker for polyships.
I think the interactions between our purple disasters would be quite beautiful. Mostly because they clash personalities so much, and also they would look so fucking pretty together. I love Caleb/Essik because they are quite similar in their background and that fascinates me. And I love Essik and Molly, because they are complete opposites.
Molly doesn’t give two flying fucks about what expectations people might have for him. Yes, he cares about a certain image that he cultivates with the way he looks and acts, but most of that is to make himself more into the person he wants to be and not into something other people expect of him.
I think Molly being so unapologatically himself and not doing what is expected of him, not caring about other people’s opinions together with his inate desire to just live in the moment and not plan for the future, or care about the past would be so fascinating for Essik. Essik dislikes his culture’s fixation on rebirth and consecution. Molly is basically living Essik’s wildest dream. Just live for the present and do the best with the time that has been given to you.
Additionally, Essik--as we found out--is an incredibly isolated, socially awkward individual, whereas Molly thrives on being around people. He might not be smooth or as charismatic as he sometimes pretends to be, but he loves talking to people, and to strangers, and he’s good at it!
I think honestly Essik would just watch in awe how Mollymauk Tealeaf waltzes through life like a colorful whirlwind with no past, something that is considered a big disadvantage in Essik’s society. Molly not only has no past lives as far as he’s concerned, he also has no memories of this life’s past.
Essik being so young and without past lives has been something of a sore spot in his life and career. Can you imagine how his people would react to someone who has a lifespan of only two years?
Plus, Essik is a magic nerd and Molly has those interesting Bloodhunter powers.
Bonus points: Remember Essik downing that drink super fast after he was invited into the hot tub? Imagine his behavior with someone like Molly being around. Loud, throwing around sexual innuendos left and right, running through the house with just a bedsheet, proclaiming he’s a god and offering Essik grapes?
I just love my purple disasters very much.
I can’t believe it took me this long to draw Essek, the shadowhand, dunamancy extraordinaire, ridiculous cloak legend, hoverboard king, the-
me, pulling up five episodes late and with a starbucks in my hand: Shadowhand Essek who?
These two are very good ✨
listen idk how to write fanfic and i don't have the time but i need to put this out there: just the general concept of Essek casting Comprehend Languages so he can listen to Caleb talk in his native tongue just to hear how charismatic he can be at his Peak
