Second post with some fanart!
AKEMI
It’s a sketch but I haven’t drawn in so long my hand literally hurts T-T
Akemi with her small wings, decorative only. They glitter like gold and their only job seems to be betraying her thoughts and puffing up whenever she is angry. They also take ridiculously long to wash away any grime or sand they collect. High maintenance!
TAIGEN
Taigen’s wings are his pride and joy, wide and beautiful. They appear bluish green in this sketch but it’s mostly because of the night light. They are brown, just like those of an osprey. They shine with oil and attention they have just gotten at the brothel from all the lovely ladies he’s been drinking with.
Like I wrote before, he spreads them whenever he can, especially to goad.
(Pose comes from the pilot episode and no, it’s not because I didn’t master that beautiful man’s face yet, not at all…)
And now…
MIZU
That’s how her wings look like at the time of her first duel with Taigen:
Yeeeeesh… they look rough. She does cut them evenly, it’s just that lack of preening and being thrown through paper walls will do that to the person (Ignore Taigen - some have good hair genes, he has good feathers).
They are cut as short as she can keep them and are matted and just sad.
For comparison, here’s how they should look like
Woah, big wingspan baby!
And much healthier, too! Shiny, glittering! I have a feeling that Mizu’s wings would be almost iridescent at the top, definitely pretty enough to make Taigen jealous. Also, wouldn’t it be hilarious if they reacted to the littlest bit of care like crazy and make Akemi green with jealousy with how low of a maintenance they actually are?
Too bad no one thought to teach Mizu how to care for them properly…
Anyways, hope you all like the sketches. I would love to hear your headcanons bout this au and I would be HONORED if anyone joined in!
