I did spicy
you cannot tell me that this man hasn't had to mingle with men on missions and realize that oh no... they're hot.
“he’s quite a looker, him.” franky says over a glass of wine. he and twilight are watching nightfall attempt to seduce a westalis veteran in a gala.
franky isn’t wrong. the man is incredibly fit, years of military training not lost on his physique. he’s wearing a form-fitting suit that was clearly tailored to highlight his, um. assets, so to speak. twilight gulps.
from where they’re standing, he can hear the smooth baritone voice of the man above all the chatter of the hall, laughing lightly at nightfall’s quips.
from time to time, his eyes flit to twilight for a quick second, and twilight’s heart races.
he convinces himself that it’s from worry that the man will pick up on the intelligence eyes on him. yeah. definitely not from the way he seems more keen to talk to twilight than the attractive woman in front of him.
“bet he pulls all the ladies.” twilight hears franky say, oblivious to the growing tension beside him. he grunts in response.
marcus belante. thirty five. 203 lbs. 6’3. served in the westalis military for ten years.
when he reviewed his info sheet, twilight remembered something about marcus that wasn’t on it, something he learned when he was serving in the military himself.
he allegedly had a love affair with his commander, who eventually died in the war.
“i bet he does.” twilight takes a swig of his own wine.
nightfall eventually comes back, obscuring franky and twilight’s view of marcus, looking dejected.
“so? anything?” franky asks.
nightfall grunts, and twilight sneaks a glance behind her. he tries not to react when he sees marcus’ eyes on him, almost predatory.
“why do you look like you just got rejected?” franky teases. “i was,” nightfall rolls her eyes, “apparently i’m not exactly marcus’ type.”
she turns to twilight, who’s still trapped in a silent, heated exchange with the man.
a sharp elbow to his ribs breaks the trance twilight is in. “what?” he grits through clenched teeth, rubbing the tender spot on his side. “i said, i’m not his type.”
franky hums. “what now, then? is there another way we can—“ “i’ll go."
franky and nightfall look at twilight in surpise. he shouldn’t have offered himself so quickly, but what’s done is done.
it’s for the mission, after all.
he slicks his hair back and flags down another waiter. nightfall and franky say nothing as they watch twilight’s wine glass get filled to the brim.
“i’ll see you later.” twilight nods to his colleagues and walks toward marcus, who straightens up with a smirk.
So far, the piece I'm proudest of making 😌❤ I just HAD to draw them almost kissing

No but I'm obsessed with this exchange actually
Because Twilight thinks he'd this big tough guy all for the mission and only caring about the mission and that's he's cold and has no attachments but every once in a while we see that he's not really he's a HUGE DORK
And he gets overzealous about things all the time and gets so into something when he's fired up but he doesn't even realize it and when he does his first instinct is to tamper it down because it makes him stand put or it goes against the mission or what have you but also that's the part that Yor loves about him
It makes sense cause she was like that with Yuri, always excited and interested in learning about him and his interests even when she didn't understand them at all. Because Yor loves it, and that's why she's perfect for Twilight because the parts he finds the most ridiculous or uncool are the parts she's drawn to and they are just absolutely perfect for each other
The fact that they're enemies makes the small possibility of a romance between Arian and Griffith so angst-filled.
I can think of a few ways it could end:
- She kills him
-He kills her
OR, for a more optimistic yet highly unlikely scenario, he joins her side and helps her defeat Balor. But again, this is highly unlikely.
I'm afraid of it being a tragic romance if they do end up having feelings for each other. But I think it makes a potential relationship between them all the more flavorful: because angst is like garlic. Sure, the fic/food will be fine without it, but with it there will be added depth to its flavor. And you can never go wrong with too much garlic.
The buildup of their feelings in terms of their conflict against each other's side and inevitable confrontation would be so good, omfg. It's scary and exciting.
saw a post earlier today saying that twilight’s real name might be james, since anya was subject 007 and bond (and bondman) is bond and that would complete the set of references, and i’m pretty sure endo said yor’s name is short for “yolanda,” which i googled just now and one of the first examples of notable people on the wikipedia page was
i think there might be something to this theory
Helene is entering her villain era and I'm here for it, ngl...
Though I don't condone her actions (as of the recent chapters), I do understand the fact that she is deeply traumatized and hurt by others (still not a reason tho lol)
Alucard in the sunlight ☀️
I drew the scene where Griffith wakes up to Arian sleeping next to him in that cabin during the snowstorm lol my dude was shocked.
