So maybe @crooked-jett made me watch a movie with 70s lesbians and I referenced them for our ClemVi vampire story. And before you ask, I put that shadow and red eyes over vampire vi cuz of sinners and cuz I think it looks cool.
Ignore the fact that this art is months old and I'm just now posting it
I have no idea how they exist in the world but I imagined the first doodle as if they were visiting earth while disguised and vi almost blew their cover by surprising Clem with a smooch. I'd like to think she'd "burn brighter" when vi's affectionate to her. I also imagine that whenever they makeout, it's either a lunar or solar eclipse.
I wouldn't call this a redraw but it did come from this old idea. Clem and vi being sun and moon goddesses that can only be together at dawn is such a delicious idea!
So perhaps @crooked-jett and I thought of a vampire au inspired by interview with a vampire. Perhaps it's set in the 70s and is Violentine. Perhaps I have more art coming Halloween bc perhaps I'm obsessed with this right now. Perhaps has become my new favorite word if you couldn't tell.

So I made art for my fic 🥺👉🏾👈🏾 and theres the link if you're interested. It's just an au where the apocalypse never happened and Clem was sent to Ericson but with angst cuz I can. I've only posted one chapter but I'll update (eventually). I kinda made it a secret as to why Clem is there but if you want to know why, check under where is says spoilers.
Here's a line up of the trio but idk if I'll draw all the other Ericson kids cuz my hand would die. Clem is so hard to draw. I have so many versions that look like mandarin and tangerine but a Clementine?? Impossible. Also first time drawing Louis and I think he turned out alright and Violet is so simple to draw. Also this is set in 2012 which is why their fits are a little lame.
And yes there's romance in this but I'm still on the fence on with who. I feel like I'm just gonna pick Violet but idk part of me what's to see a Louis route. (lol it's probably gonna be that mean hunched back lesbian)
Spoilers for the fic under
Why she got sent to Ericson in short:
She brutally beat her bully with her crutch and was legally required to go to Ericson or be criminally charged while her guardians pay the girls medical bills. She's also been acting out by smoking weed, sneaking out, and according to Carley "abusing her medication". While in Ericson she has double therapy with her old therapist and an Ericson therapist. She's not allowed strong opioids and has to take anger management. She has her crutches but heavily relies on her prosthetic and hides her disability from the Ericson kids.
Long version below:
Here's the backstory:
Clem's parents died in a home invasion (robbery gone wrong) and she was later adopted by Lee. Lee later met and married Carley and they later adopted Aj. They moved to West Virginia for Carley's job. In this, Luke is Carley's cousin and he babysits for her. When CarLee were out of town, the house caught fire (from what? idk yet). Clem saved Aj but got trapped inside, Luke went back in to save her and did but died in the process.
(Ik the coloring of the scars is wonky but it was something doodled last minute plus I couldn't find references)
Clem saw Luke like a big brother and his death haunts her along with the death of her parents. She's severely depressed, has night terrors and survivors guilt. She, along with Aj, got burned in the fire and is covered with scars from severe 3rd and 4th degree burns and is a leg amputee. Shes actively hiding her scars and leg, and in a way is acting like the fire never happened. Shes given a therapist to help her cope but she is repressing her feelings.
