THEYRE DONE. THEYRE DONE (EXPLODES
sooo uhhmm im making a whole bunch of proper character refs in preparation for artfight next month and i already had bits and pieces for all three of my loathing guys so i knocked em out first. including my WoL girlie who ive never rlly posted abt before. grins
im gonna blab abt them a little more mostly just things i couldn’t fit into the sheet proper and i won’t go Too INTO into the story things i have for them. maybe ill talk about them more another time but. aheem heem. under the cut that’ll go
JOHNNY GOLDSMITH
Jazz Agent, protag of my (almost. herngh) max shadow taint + curse run that I still haven’t finished. Private investigator, sleazy loser, enjoyer of fine shades. The P.I. part comes in with a missing person case that doesn’t really go anywhere. Don’t worry about it. He may or may not be doomed to destroy all of eternity at some point leading to an endless loop of resurrection and re-destruction but we aren’t quite there yet so ssshhh we stay stilly abt it <3
Notable Perks: Ambition, Insectologist
Companions: Alphonse Gator, Simone Chekhov
GRIZZLY MAYNARD
Cow Puncher, protag of my first successful hard hat run (and potential protagonist of a one-day hard hat run if I ever do one of those because i am too attached to her oops). Normal farm girl turned Literal Demon™ after she gets a little silly and makes a deal with the Hellcows to protect her family should they start going east that basically boils down to “If you can’t beat ‘em, join’ em”. She’s not evil but she might’ve accidentally started that aforementioned endless loop by screwing with Ancient Evils stuck in a stupid-looking hat. #girl
Notable Perks: Boon of Duke Bovicus, Cowrrupted, Honorable
Pardner: Doc Alice
HUGH WILLOUGHBY
Cheese Wizard, protag of my initial blind run of Shadows and. aheem. future protag for a 100% max difficulty run. My explanation for them being here twice is “time loop”. Just a simple pyrokinetic trying to survive who is ever-so-slightly doomed to be permanently lost to time and space and then be erased and recreated ad infinitum thanks to the meddling of some schmoe with a grease gun and stupid sunglasses. If you even LOOK at them with a hint of ill intent they will start trembling like a chihuahua . sorry
Notable Perks: Checkered Past, Cryptobotanist
Companions: Molly Buttons, Barker

Adam x fem sinner reader, Adam(angel) being insecure about his tummy and face, so reader basically just with body worship! (Suggestive!)
Sure!! :D Hope you enjoy! :D
"Why do you call me perfect?"
Adam groaned, gently pinching at his tummy. God, today was NOT being nice to him. First, his robe had to be put into the laundry, so he couldn't exactly cover up like usual, THEN his mask had to be fixed/remade, so his face was all out in the open, today just fucking sucked.
He straight up took down all the mirrors in his room at this point. He hated how he looked, and he knew if he went out, he'd have to put on the typical confident persona he always put on.
Hell, he didn't even want to fucking leave his room until he could cover up again! He sighed frustratedly, just resolving to get back into bed until he could wear his robe and mask again.
He didn't know how long he stayed there, hidden under his blanket for, he just knew he heard someone come in. "Adam?" He heard his partner call softly.
He grimaced. You were gonna see him at his most insecure, at his lowest, at his WORST.
He squeezed his eyes shut as the blankets got pulled off, ready for any insults or wayward comments to come his way about his appearance.
...
...
...
...
...but they never came. The only thing that came his way was a soft hand running through his hair. He slowly opened his eyes, looking up at you, tears starting to well up in them. "...you can go ahead, y'know...everyone else has already done it multiple times...you don't have to be different." Adam sighed.
"What do you mean, love?" You asked, tilting your head in confusion.
"Just LOOK at me!! I'm not conventionally attractive, I'm fat, I've let myself go, my face isn't attractive-" He started, pausing as you hushed him.
"Adam, you're perfect to me. Besides, even if you weren't-which you AREN'T-you were the first human. If you have any imperfections-which you DON'T-it's because God didn't really have humanity figured out fully." You reassured.
Adam frowned. "I'm SUPPOSED to be perfect. But I'm not."
"But you're perfect to me. Isn't that enough?" You asked. "I love you for all of you. No matter what."
"Nobody could. Two people already threw me away-People just want me for my dick! Not me as a person! Just my dick!" Adam ranted. "Nobody likes how I look!! I'm a mess, I've let myself go, and you should try to find somebody better for you!"
You furrowed your eyebrows in worry. How bad had this man seen himself? You looked down at your pocket, pulling your phone out, searching something up.
"Adam?" You asked.
"Just go find someone else." Adam frowned.
You shoved your phone into his face, showing him a photo of a baby seal. "What does this seal look like?" You asked.
"....it looks fat. Why?" Adam chuffed.
"How do you feel about it?" You asked.
"...it's cute." Adam sighed.
"That? I see you as that baby seal." You said softly. "Yes, you may be bigger, but you're still cute to me. I love you for YOU. Your face, your tum, your wings, all of it. All of you is perfect to me."
You turned to Adam, finding he was tearing up, clearly on the verge of breaking down into tears. "You think I'm like a baby seal...?"
"Mhm! And just like a baby seal, I wanna pick you up and snuggle you and love you and cuddle you until you realize just how lovable you are!"
Adam sighed, melting into your embrace. He felt happy. "I will say, the dick is a plus." You joked.
"Well, you've earned it, babe~" Adam grinned.

a bystander: both of you are focusing on the wrong thing
anyway! this is a comic from the vault™! it was originally something goofy I drew for myself after I read a couple of different takes on this whole event (Crassus leaving Rome in 63 BCE, see Plutarch Pompey 43). like.
the phrasing is giving late night teleserye plot drama.
and this literally sounds like something a friend has told me about someone else's relationship drama with their sometimes ex. but like. on a less high stakes stage.
ALRIGHT, moving on. some stuff that was Fun To Read, To Me
Crassus' New Friends and Pompey's Return, Eve J Parrish
Crassus: a Political Biography, B.A. Marshall
speaking of titles, fascinated by how this part of crassus' life gets defined by pompey's absence/return. hello fellas!
AND FINALLY inspiration for Pompey's comment about perpetuating cycles of violence comes from this delightfully dramatic bit of writing
Marcus Crassus and the Late Roman Republic, Allen Mason Ward
