I'm just a little bit mad that Nakaba didn't make Meliodas and Zeldris twins.

LIKE COME ONNNNN

they're the

- same height

-almost the same facial structure

-opposites of each other (blond, brunet; unserious, serious; etc)

-other stuff too that I don't feel like listing

To me, they just feel like identical twins

Maybe I just like the idea of them being twins. It just didn't make much sense for Zeldris to be younger and Meliodas to be older in my mind if they basically look the same :/

I get Meliodas being older cuz of the curse tho. But even before the curse, these two looked the same. The main difference is really just the way they use their demonic abilities and the color of their hair + hairstyle.

Did a redraw from a VERY old drawing I did back in 2018

Found lots of very old drawings of when I first got into NNT. This was when I was CONVINCED that Esta was related to Meli and Zel (I just thought he dyed his hair or something lmao) Anyway enjoy my embarrassment as I share with you all some of my old embarrassing artwork 🫶

Story Summary:

Eternal…

life.

reincarnation.

silence.

and chains.

For 3,000 long and painful years, these four have been doing all they can to lift their curses. They have failed, again and again and again. With only a sliver of hope left, they try once more.

-

Or, what if Zeldris accepted Meliodas’ offer to go with him 3,000 years ago?

The clearing was quiet, barren, and utterly too normal for any of their likings. It was impossible to feel even a hint of magic emanating from the space that was supposedly the entrance to the Necropolis.

“Well then!” Meliodas said, turning to face the group at large. Everyone was gathered in a semi-circle, minus the two kids who’d given them the instructions, still standing and just watching from the edge of the clearing. “Does anyone have someone in mind to think about?”

Zeldris swept his gaze over everyone else when no one said a word. He wouldn’t bother. There wasn’t anyone he could imagine fondly that would be in the Necropolis, knowing the few people he’d cared most for in his life were either around him now or simply just not quite dead. There wouldn’t be a point in trying to remember anyone.

Finally, Elizabeth piped up about trying to remember her mother. Meliodas’ expression tightened minutely, but to Zeldris’ relief, he relaxed once Hawk asked if she even had memories of her mother and she deflated, her hopeful expression shuttering away as she shook her head. While Zeldris felt a twinge of guilt at the face she made, he’d be a liar if he said he was disappointed she remembered nothing or relieved when Diane chimed in about someone she used to know, but she didn’t elaborate. She, Elizabeth, Hawk, and Meliodas then devolved into a debate about ghosts and whether or not accessing the Necropolis would lead to them having to interact with ghosts. Zeldris started tuning them out.

A glance at Gelda showed she was observing the others as well, though her eyes were trained on King and Ban, a tilt to her head. Zeldris, too, turned his attention to the two Sins and noted that neither seemed to be paying any attention to anyone.

King seemed more aware than Ban, his brows creasing as he stared toward the ground. Probably trying to open the Necropolis, then, but apparently not succeeding. It took Zeldris a few moments of pondering that he probably shouldn’t have needed to think of who the fairy might possibly be trying to remember. Consequently, the realization is what brought his attention to focus on Ban.

Ban had a rather blank look on his face. Zeldris’ chest tightened, his hearts suddenly feeling like they were starting to be squeezed. 

The Sin of Greed was lost in his thoughts, his memories. Zeldris had no doubt what he could be thinking of, what he was reliving. He’d seen Meliodas in the exact same place too many times to count, too many times too many.

He was hit, suddenly, with the realization that seeing anyone wear that blank stare hurt.

Zeldris hadn’t noticed anything changing until the conversation between the others died out. Filling the silence was the wind, picking up speed and swirling flowers that weren’t there moments ago into the air.

It took a moment for anyone to react, too stunned at the sudden sight of a meadow of pink flowers to say anything. But then Diane exclaimed and Ban startled, blinking and finally looking around and clearly still not entirely back with them, still very much there, and the new meadow was filled with noise once more.

“Good luck finding them!” One of the kids chirped above the rising wind.

“And thanks for the food, mister!” Said the other with a wide grin, and then they were gone, obscured by the whirlwind of flowers surrounding the group. 

Zeldris barely had time to process as from one moment to the next his vision was obscured by flowers to instead being obscured by bright reflective light.

--

Meliodas squinted once the world finally stopped spinning, the light reflected from the crystals surrounding them far too bright after suddenly seeing only darkness. He heard a hiss not far off and assumed it was Zeldris. Gelda he knew was okay from the shade that enveloped him a moment later, the vampire managing to get her bearings quicker than the rest of her family. He’d have to thank her later.

Blinking the spots away more easily now, Meliodas was able to take stock of everything and everyone. 

They were in a land of smooth green and blue stone, around them the walls to a maze of crystals standing tall, but not tall enough to be considered an issue. Most were at Ban’s height, and with Diane, they’d really have no problems.

The others were recovering from the sudden environment change too, it seemed, scrubbing at their eyes or squinting around in hopes of adjusting their eyes to the light. He didn’t have to wait long before an excited gasp escaped Elizabeth as she looked around, and Hawk whistled lowly. Diane had a grin forming on her face, and it was practically infectious until she glanced down and noticed the three shrouded in darkness.

“Hey! No fair, Gelda! You didn’t shield any of the rest of us from the light!” She exclaimed, hands on her hips as Gelda dismissed the shadowy shield.

Gelda smiled apologetically at the giant. Sorry, she signed, They were closest and it was instinct. Diane huffed, practically pouting, and Meliodas couldn’t help the chuckle. Gelda glanced at him and shared the same amused smile before looking back up at Diane. Next time you’ll be the first I shield. Deal?

Diane made a decent effort to remain annoyed but caved quickly enough in the face of Gelda’s offer. “Deal!”

“Well, now we’re in the Necropolis,” Meliodas said, everyone’s attention flicking to him. “We should get a start on seeing if one of the others-” Meliodas startled when Ban jumped into motion, dashing off after some lights. Barely a second later King was flying after him, neither paying a glance to anyone else.

“What… just happened?” Hawk asked, staring after the two Sins long gone.

Zeldris sighed, and when Meliodas looked at his younger brother, he was met with a familiar tired and saddened look directed down the path Ban and King had run. Normally, said look was directed at him, and Meliodas hummed uncertainly to Hawk’s question as he tried to decipher the look.

He couldn’t help gaping at his own stupidity when it hit him why those two would chase after a spirit here. He closed his mouth with a click and shook his head. Unpack that later. For now…

“They’ll be alright,” he said, offering his most encouraging smile. A second later, Zeldris and Gelda were nodding.

“We’ll find them before we leave, or we’ll see them after we leave back in the meadow. We have a limited amount of time in here, after all,” Zeldris added.

“Right!” Meliodas clapped his hands together. “For now, we should be enough to try finding if any of us are here. Ban and King’ll be on the lookout too, I’m sure, so how about we head this way?” He gestured in the opposite direction that the two had run. If they had chased after who he thinks they did, the two Sins didn’t need the rest of them intruding on that conversation.

And so the group of six headed off.

Do ya think I should give zel more tattoos?

I was trying out a slightly different art style and decided to use it to make the bold statement that I think that demon flames should be blue like in blue exorcist on because it looks cooler

I will not apologise for this

I’m also gonna start drawing more of Zeldris’s hijinks and villains of the week and how Elaine reacted when Zel came home with his severed arm.

Zeldris's haircut makes it look like some incredibly large cat liked his hair.

I'd love to give him a large pet cat but the idea of Mel just going up to zel some random day and then just licking his head and zeldris deciding that was a good enough hair cut seems funny to me.

Look at these two! I thought these were Meli and Zel’s kids when I first saw this drawing. I wonder who Nakaba intended for these two kids to be? 🤔

Either way, love them just the same 🫶

Not to toot my own horn but the Zeldris redesign is POPPING OFF right now, ya'll are gonna love this little bastard.

I got tired of so many of these characters having swords so he gets a trident instead. Ain't no execution quite like getting impaled by the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, and I am right ladies?
