... To delve into some relationships I still haven't properly introduced you. I'm so excited for this! I plan on drawing a page with multiple sketches where these characters will interact.
All the relationships listed are platonic, extremely close, AND essential to the plot.
(Now, I should give you a fair warning that Marzio thinks about his relationship with Ermes as anything but platonicโbut that's on him I disassociate myself from his toxic incestuous fantasies)

Just a simple illustration + excerpt from my fic Courting Fire (read it here) to test a couple of things regarding the layout and the color palette! ๐ The test was passed with flying colors!โbut also black & white lmao because I still have no idea if I'll actually be able to print the book in color as I wish. In the meantime, I hope you'll enjoy this!
Me drawing this pic and thinking about this comic from @snsn440 on Twitter: where all of that is going to fit.........
I'm trying to do something here to visualize the layout and some other stuff I have in mind for the illustrated & formatted version of my endhawks zine Courting Fire (read the fic here). Full pic will be NSFW eheh ๐ I'll finish it next week since I have a con this weekend. Wish me luck! ๐

I've been working a lot on Ermes's backstory during the last months and tbh, it feels like I'm crafting blown glass when it comes to him. Very beautiful and delicate, very prone to breaking, very sharp when it does. Damn, I love my son. It's really therapeutic to make him suffer. ๐
First pic is set in the present (hence the Owner key), second pic is a reminiscence of the past (before Dario came into his life). Everything that's implied there is very consensual. Doesn't mean Ermes was proud about it or about himself afterward. Doesn't mean he didn't keep on trying to find love in the arms of those who had none to offer.
(There's also a super secret third pic with no socks & garters but it's not time to reveal it yet ๐ Just get used to seeing Ermes naked except for his sexy ankles because sigh, my boy says socks stay ON during sex ๐)
Speaking of Unlock, Sasha suggested I do a short, spoiler-free playlist to let y'all vibe with the story, and I was thinking about making one about darmes specifically. Would you be interested in hearing it? ๐ Also! I started outlining another neste comic strip and *coughs in a fist* I'm afraid it might be even hornier than the last one ๐ Truth is, I'm planning so many things about this original story of mine, and I can't wait to share them during this coming year! Thank you for the support you've been showing toward it ๐

Hello and sorry for having to take some time off while my eye healed ๐ญ I can assure you it was a miserable couple of days because I was itching to go back to draw AND I couldn't even read or watch TV much (for obvious reasons) or go outside to touch some grass (due to harsh lights and wind). Boy, I'm so glad it's over ๐
Speaking of reading, who do we have here? And why is it always immortal idiots pining that do it for me??? And the hair color. Why is it always redheads and blonds? What is wrong with me, do I have a type, am I a serial killer

I'll keep you updated if anything changes, but I just hope to be able to go back to work soon!

4 CODES AVAILABLE, DM ME TO GET ONE
Hello everyone!
Through this post I'll keep you updated on every time I have some invites to share so you can join Bluesky - the new Twitter-adjacent socmed that most artists (especially NSFW ones) are slowly migrating to. Bsky is still invite-only at this stage, but every week I'll be able to share 1 invite with you.
The situation on Twitter is seriously starting to worry me, so I'll try to be just as active on bsky from now on. It's still a relatively small platform, but I'd be really happy if you could help me make it grow by following and sharing, not only my stuff but also that of other artists. Thank you ๐
One more for my Enji with a full beard agenda because I was challenged to turn This monstrosity below into That distinguished steampunk gentleman ๐ซถ๐ฅ
(unimportant rambling)
I really like how this turned out, technically-wise... I'm constantly trying to find a way to color stuff that I force myself not to refine as much as my usual art so I can churn out stuff quicker. It's a fucking struggle because my standard setting is "squeaky clean lineart and solid colors" and I always find myself reverting back to it, but that's not sustainable for every artwork I do. ๐ญ So yeah, I think I'll try to vibe with this fresh watercolor technique for the pieces I want to keep more sketchy looking. We'll see If I manage!

Leather Father Enji has a peculiar way of exorcising demons ๐ But me thinks succubus Hawks might develop a penchant for being banished like this... He should keep coming back and become the bane of the priest's existence. After all, nobody can fill his sinful appetite quite as thoroughly. ๐
Sorry for the delay! This should have been done for Halloween but as you can see *jazz hands
As I mentioned, I got sick for some days, and then I kinda lost myself focusing on all the details and the atmosphere. ๐ Loved working on this! Leather Father bearded Enji you will always be famous ๐ซถ
I deeply apologize........ I've been ill these last few days and I couldn't work at my full capacity, so I won't be able to finish this piece in time for Halloween ๐ฅฒ๐ชฆ I'll keep working on it whenever medicines give me a moment of respite though, so this week it shall be done.
Bearded Enji my beloved, you're back and nastier than ever ๐ซถ

I got this idea that might be a bit on the harder kink side compared to my usual art... I'll only say Holy Water(sports) ๐ I know, I'm hilarious. It's the cross I must bear.
Since this kinky twist wasn't included in the original prompt you voted for, I thought it better to warn you beforehand and ask your opinion. Would you like to see a slight variation in addition to the main pic (original prompt) featuring this brainworm I had?

[CW vaginal fingering, use of AFAB terms to describe the bits of a trans man]
Had this scene stuck in my head for a while. It should be the first time they have sex, after endless spiteful bickering and taunting by your Celeste truly, which had the desired effect of driving Naoki up a wall, making him break his marriage vows. It's not cute. Hate sex and insults are their love language at first, plus Naoki is... plain nasty and sexually frustrated. Things with his wife haven't been going well since forever, but he was too much of a pious and strict man to consider cheating... until now.
Celeste wouldn't have it any other way. He wants it as rough as Naoki can give it to him โ he won't break so easily, after all. And yet, despite every snarky comment aimed at riling Naoki up ("Bet you couldn't fuck your wifey like this, huh?"), Celeste feels comfortable enough to stop him and share his preferences โ something he never cared to point out to his previous owners. He knows Naoki would listen. He knows he can trust him, even if Naoki doesn't always trust his own self. Celeste can read him like a book, one he knows by heart.
Wall of text of TRIVIA you can skip but I highly recommend it to fuel the brainrot ๐ฅบ
- Celesteโs discomfort with vaginal penetration comes more from his backstory (๐ค) rather than from dysphoria (though that obviously plays a part, too). He does like fingering and getting eaten out, and heโs the first one to use AFAB terms to refer to his bits, thatโs why Naoki doesnโt hold his tongue in any sense of the term (ba dum tss). Heโs extremely respectful of Celesteโs gender identity (if nothing else ๐), and that doesnโt change even when Celeste does everything inhumanly possible to get on his nerves.
- At this point in the story, Celeste still hasnโt even entertained the idea of gender-affirming surgery or hormonal therapy. Both would be nearly experimental on Vampires.
- Celeste is fluent in Japanese. He and Naoki talk the language when they donโt want to be understood by anyone else โ especially on the job during investigations. Theyโre annoying like that.
While Celesteโs Italian (or well, English, since thatโs how Iโm writing the book) is colloquial, his Japanese sounds way more formal & polite, because he learned it in the past. It gives Naoki whiplash every time he hears it. The good kind. *wiggles eyebrows*
- Celeste often calls Naoki danna, which is a Japanese term formerly used by service people (eg geisha) to refer to their male patrons of higher status/authority. It can translate to โsir/masterโ but also to โhusbandโ (someone else's or your own), as a legacy of feudal Japan where husbands were supposed to be the masters of the house and also providers to their wives & servants alike. It used to be a deferential word, but in modern Japanese it acquired a fond if not intimate meaning, especially since now itโs also used by hostesses and sex workers in a sort of โsugar daddyโ way. Celeste miiight not be aware of this last bit of information. Naoki is. Of course he is, the kinky bastard.
Btw, the first kanji that makes up danna is the one for โdawnโ (ๆฆ), which is incredibly fitting, once you realize I'm not being subtle at all with the whole endhawks/Icarus and the Sun reference.
- if you're curious about their sexuality, Naoki is pan and Celeste is demi. Naoki, for his part, isnโt aware of this last bit of information. :)))
Anyhoe, this is a bday gift to myself, lol. I haven't had this much fun drawing in so long :') Hope you'll like it as well! And if you reached this point, thank you for reading all this info dump ๐

A devil in disguise of an angel ๐โง๏ธ
I promise I'm cooking! This comic is just a bit more challenging and longer than what I've tried before, but I'm having SO much fun with it! Like, I don't remember the last time I felt this drive to just draw, draw, draw. I guess that's what indulging in your original stuff does to a mf :') At first, I wanted to leave it more rough-looking, but as I kept working on it, I couldn't help focusing on all the little details that make up my babies. Or well. My old man yaoi blorbos. I guess they deserve the title, after all ๐

(pussy censoring pussy because I'm the funniest gal in town)
Yes, yet again another work in progress before the month ends! But in my defense I'll say: this comic is probably the lewdest shit I've ever drawn in my entire life ๐ซ I'm honestly horny gripping my thighs so hard and praying sweet baby Jesus doesn't perceive me. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to work for a couple of days because I got sick, so I couldn't concentrate enough to color the other couple of WIPs I showed you. Still, this comic kept on visiting me during my feverish dreams, so as soon as I got well enough I had to start lining it. I just-- love Naoki and Celeste SO much. ๐ญ๐ซฆ Please enjoy this panel in the meantime! ๐
