"This Is My Captain"

an older doodle when he still canonically had pointy ears but i miss him

Can you tell us some facts about Cecile? I like my man with questionable morals lol 🤍

✦ Some facts about Cécile!

Loves dogs!

Has incredible reflexes and balance

He smokes. A lot. Behind Gael's back.

He doesn't have any contact with his parents, but he knows they're alive

His eyes were brown before...before everything.

OKAY NOW THAT IM FINALLY FREE PREPARE FOR MY ASKS TO STEADILY FLOW IN BECAUSE YOU GET ME™️ was having thoughts about waking up to cécile thanks to your artwork (other things were going on that didn’t involve sleeping anndkss) but idk something about the softness of that vs him is just…it does something to me okay

also having thoughts about him fighting the urge to look at you in a certain way while you interact with gael

also having thoughts about taking advantage of him being off duty

and your tags on my fic meant sooo much to me, thank you again I’m so happy you liked it, talking to you about him made me think how important picking up on his body language would be for your mental sanity, and you’d have to be damn good at it too

no literally!!!! waking to cécile KILLS ME BECAUSE OF THAT ONE ASKKKK 😭😭😭👊👊👊👊

nsfw mention in the last paragraph

WHAT DO YOU MEAN CÉCILE DOESN'T SLEEP THE WHOLE NIGHT BECAUSE HE'S TOO ENAMOURED BY THE VULNERABILITY YOU'VE SHOWN HIM BY FALLING ASLEEP IN HIS BED AND THE VULNERABILITY YOU'VE PRIED OUT OF HIM FOR EVEN LETTING YOU BETWEEN THE SHEETS?????? OR MAYBE HE'S SCARED AS IN SO VERY SCARED OF THE WAY YOU'VE DESTROYED HIM BEYOND REPAIR BECAUSE NOW THAT HE'S HAD YOU HE'S GONNA KEEP WANTING YOU TILL HE HAS ALL OF YOU AND THAT THOUGHT IS MORTIFYING TO THE CLOSED, HOLLOW HEART OF HIS??? OR MAYBE HE HASN'T SLEPT NEXT TO SOMEONE IN SO LONG THAT THE FEELING OF YOUR BODY IS TRULY FOREIGN TO HIM AND HE CAN'T HELP BUT LEARN ALL OF YOU EVEN WHEN, OR ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU'RE ASLEEP????????????? WHAT THA FARRKKKKK i think the first night with cécile is gonna be 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 because he's denied you for so long that he just... snaps. he snaps and he'll have you no natter what. but after the sex, after the passion? he's angry, shocked— scared. what have you done to him? and he has to get up early in the morning because he can't stand the thought of you seeing him like this past the lust BUT HE STAYS ANYWAYS UNTIL YOU WAKE UP. IM SICK. IM FUCKING SICK. RAVENSTAR DEVS ARE YOU HAPPY TO SEE ME CRY?? CÉCILE IS ALL DRESSED AND CLEANED UNTIL YOU WAKE UP AND KNOWING ACTS OF SERVICE IS SEWN INTO HIM, HE MIGHT HELP YOU FRESHEN UP BEFORE HE GOES OFF TO WORK. HE'LL SAY IT'S BECAUSE HE DOESN'T WANT ANYONE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN YOU TWO WITH YOUR ' GRAVE INABILITY FOR DECORUM' AND MAYBE SO BUT CÉCILE, FOR ALL HIS CUTTING FORTHRIGHTNESS, HAS THINGS HE CAN NEVER ADMIT. SO HE'LL ALLOW HIS GAZE TO LINGER ON YOU BEFORE HE GOES BACK TO FIGHTING OFF AN UNBIDDEN DESIRE (DESIRE? LUST? NEED? HE DAREN'T THINK OF THE OTHER DIRTIER WORD BEGINNING WITH 'L')

ahem. pardon my french i got a little carried away! also a certain way goes so many ways here LOL i think for the most part he'd just be looking at you like you're a roach buzzing around gael. his master is a respectable and noble man and you're... you 🤨🤨🤨 unfortunately he can't let his face do all the talking because believe it or not, gael doesn't want his bodyguard to stare murderously at his guest.

the other way is the one that screams with conflict. again i really have to know what cécile thinks of his love for mc in relation to his love for gael because i have no doubt that even when you reach the end goal and become cécile's world, gael is still gonna mean so so much to him. at that point, would he sacrifice everything else for you? yes. but he knows the world includes gael too and it's a part of him nothing, and i mean nothing can heal. what im trying to say is; does cécile feel even more pained, looking at you when you're standing right next to his master only in name, now? can he stand to look honestly at gael when the bane of existence and the recipient of all his need makes things so fucking difficult? he has never been on gael's level, and for good reason.

he has no right to ask for gael's forgiveness nor understanding - even though gael would forgive him in every life time like jesus willingly kissed judas - but he can't help but... need to know. just this once, the loyal hound strays and he's sorry. he's so, so sorry. please know (yes, i know) that he did not go willingly (of course you did, and it's okay), that he will always love gael (i have no doubts about that, but it's about time you have a love to call your own, now - a master and a pet only for you).

and he can't help it, the smaller feeling crawling underneath his skin. that the exact same master he loves so dearly could treat you better than cécile could by miles— gael could sweep you off your feet, and cécile wouldn't even be angry.

also sorry but 'taking advantage of him' while he's off duty snapped me out of my angsty mindset and immediately got me huffing like a dog. heartbreak time over, we're pulling cécile into a bathroom stall to suck that dick till it's blue and black before sending him off again 🤷

What sad songs represent each love interest the best? (please make me cry with them, pleeeeease)

Don't know if they'll make you cry, but I think of the LIs when listening to them and they make emotional :^)

✦ Sad songs that represent the LIs

✦ Amon: La canción — Bad Bunny, J Balvin

✦ Raeya: Without you — Ursine Vulpine

✦ Gael: Shots — Imagine Dragons

✦ Envy: What could've been — Sting

✦ Ara: Corps — Yseult

✦ Xal: Broken parts — Smash into Pieces

✦ Father Pride: Everybody's changing — Keane

✦ Lázaro: Ricochet — Starset

✦ Cécile: Last resort — Falling in Reverse

Sasaki and Qin

RoR's authors : Carefully exclude any women from the roster and reduce goddesses to special move names

Some intellectual : "Fine, I'll do it myself."

That one tweet that’s like “oh that’s gore… that’s gore of my comfort character” but in the absolutely most positive sense u can imagine, with rainbows and dolphins in the sky etc.

✦ ARTSTYLE / SPRITES UPDATE!

Hello folks! ⭐

A new work week begins, and that means our first official update about our new sprites is here! We've been gathering feedback from you here on tumblr, our official discord server, instagram and tiktok, and we've made some changes to the sprites that we hope satisfy the vast majority of you. First of all, thank you all so so much again and again for your feedback and for the time you are dedicating on helping us! It has been truly unvaluable for us as we try to navigate this change with as much care as possible and respecting our supporters' opinion.

So, let's jump into it! ✦ GAEL

✦ IMPLEMENTED FEEDBACK:

—His face has been edited to better represent his features as some of them had become lost in the first version. You'll notice the shape of his jaw, cheekbones, nose, and eyebrows, as well as his lips, have been worked on to correctly characterize him. —Added a bit more shine to his eyes —Lighted up his cloak and added more golden details —Lowered his cummerbund / corset so his ribcage actually is able to move (poor man) —Reverted to Daddy Long Legs Classy Pants because we didn't think the new mix of tight pants + knee-high boots suited his personality. He is a demure man. ✦ XAL

So, Xal's going to be a bit harder than Gael as both Raquel and I (as writer and artist) think our vision of Xal has changed a bit since we started working on the demo, design-wise. We are trying to keep as many features / details from his original face into his new one (and of course we want to keep the essence of the old design), but it's true that we want something a bit more different for him and this new version may be it. So let us know your thoughts!

✦ IMPLEMENTED FEEDBACK: — Recovered some of Xal's key features as they had gotten lost during the development of the new sprite. The arch of his nose has been edited as well as the shape of his lips and the shape of his chin and cheek. — His eyebrows are now thicker as they were in his original design — The choker and the anti tragus piercing are back! — Lighted up his jacket and the cushioned part of it, not to the point of the previous design as we want to do some more trial and error with that — Made the marks on his jacket more white / more visible! — Made the undertone of his skin more pinkish

AS ALWAYS, all feedback is accepted and welcome! We may not reply to every comment (as we've gotten quite a few) but we read all of your opinions. We hope this new changes are welcome and positive!
