Since Doorkeay (Michael x Gerard) is a really popular ship in the fandom, I did a joke sketch or two of them both being shipped in a poly relationship with Veneticus./lh
TWS FOR SPIRALS, ANALOG HORROR/UNCANNY VALLEY TYPE FACES, MANIPULATION, PARENTAL ABUSE AND NEGLECT, BRAINWASHING, KIDNAPPING, TORTURE, EATING PEOPLE, BOUNDARY CROSSING (ON PURPOSE), SEIZURES, ETC.
I unironically think it'd be funny but perfect? Michael is there to indulge in some of his assholery with him—and even helps him out whenever he has yet again brought someone to his Isle, or wants someone to leave his Isle. But, will stand up if Vene tries to manipulate hin or anything. While Gerard will easily recognize manipulation from Vene (since he has been used by his mother for years), and will firmly stand up to him no matter what—which would slowly discourage Vene from pushing if he kept standing up to him over and over.
Both would be good for Vene.. in their own way./lh
(Also Teddy Walkers and Michael Shelley have similar stories, since Teddy got brainwashed by the Island and turned into Veneticus due to it, while Michael was eaten and turned into the Distortion. While Gerard was used and then eventually succumbed to a seizure. They all have a bunch of parallels together due to their theme of being used or influenced somehow, and could easily understand eachother./lh)
Bonus sketch—
I could do a doodle page for these three? Maybe later though./lh
Little sketch of Teddy and Vene!! (Will do agere headcanons over the weekend since I'll have more time then, and I have a little assignment to do when I get home anyway.. will do more sketches like this to flesh Willow AND Teddy/Vene out a little more tho. /lh)
