dwyre fam ★modern au

(in which ardeth will not let his favorite person be taken away by some delinquent)

ardeth: “you’re not old enough to date, nyle, and you’re too good for some… some… (shudders) social media manager…”
garrett: “hey, i heard that! just because i’m not the future CEO of my dad’s company doesn’t mean i can’t provide your brother with a comfortable life- what’s important is that we love each other-”
ardeth: “do you hear him, nyle? love? ew. no. no, i am not going to let you marry this man. next thing i now he’s making you live his bohemian life and then you’re homeless-”
nyle: “…ardeth. ardeth he just asked me out for coffee.”
ardeth: “you’re just a child-”
nyle: “oh my god i’m TWENTY.”

(they do manage to go out for coffee and they start dating and eventually garrett is like “i’m in love with u can i call u baby” and nyle just laughs like “no, that’s weird. ardeth calls me baby.” and garrett is horrified “nyle i don’t think u realize that ardeth calling u baby… is weirder than me calling u baby… ok how about ummm darling?” and nyle laughs again “ardeth calls me that too, also sweetheart and honey and cupcake haha” and garrett is DONE like “does he know… that he is ur brother… and not ur boyfriend…”)

(edlin decides to go to college in scotland or london or somewhere else, she’s not sticking around for this mess, twin brother or not.)

“I shouldn’t be here. I’m not some pop star like you.”

“You wrote an album that sold millions. You should be here, boy wonder, and if I get that award, you’re coming up on the stage with me.”

“No. I’m already wearing my hair back for you. I’m not getting on any stage-”

“Well, okay then. I’m gonna have to drag you kicking and screaming.”

more kazu and jiro bc it turns out i haven’t gotten everything out of my system just yet hahaha

( ★ acoustic session ★ kazu & jiro ★ )

( ♪ your hand forever’s all i want, don’t take the money ♪ | bleachers ft. lorde )

pop sweetheart kazu treats fans to intimate acoustic session on latest tour stop with partner songwriter jiro

several celebrity news sites have published speculations about a split between the 22 year old pop star and her long-time composer-songwriter when several sources claimed seeing the two having a heated argument that ended on both parties walking away. the rumors only grew when kazu went on tour for the first time without her frequent companion.

“yeah, maybe we have a fight or two sometimes. who doesn’t?” kazu said. “he’s my best friend and we’ve been together for as long as we can remember. it’ll take more than baseless internet gossip and some scheduling conflicts to break us up.”
it seems that whatever disagreement was had is now forgiven. on the latest stop of her tour, the concert was stopped due to technical problems. the delay lasted for half an hour, until kazu came out accompanied by jiro, with nothing more than a single microphone and an acoustic guitar.

“there were hundreds of people in the arena, and all of us went dead silent for those few songs.” a member of the audience said. “kazu haven’t fully changed into her next costume yet… and jiro, well, he never really performs on shows, you know? they sang together, and they shared the mic, and it just felt really intimate.”

the two performed acoustic renditions of some of their first collaborations until the tech crew fixed the problem and the show could go on as originally planned.

so uhhh i was listening to bleachers’ mtv unplugged session, and lorde was featured there in one of my favorite songs, and then i remembered that one time she sang an acoustic version of hard feelings and new york with jack antonoff, in the middle of her concert with the two of them just sitting on the stage. and i’ve always thought that’s something kazu and jiro would do, so… here we are, i guess.

late luck: ezra & dav

“you always have a box of band-aids in your bag, don’t you?”
“when we were in primary school, i’d always get into fights for ezra. when we were in middle school, ezra always got injured because he wouldn’t stop doing arts and crafts with his stupid clumsy hands. now we’re in high school and ezra’s always banged up from saving the world.”
“aw, that’s cute- …uhhh, what was that last one?”
“my cousin fights crime. he’s a superhero.”
“hahaha! you’re a weird one, dav.”

…yea i miss the best cousins
shoutout to @jerza-fangirl, bc she gives these guys so much love

Lady Alecto, the Scarlet Fire

“Alecto Argyle Blaisdale’s blood is liquid fire, they all say. She’s a survivor, the last of her father’s name. She’s been through hell and came back whole, still noble, still with honor. No wonder the future king trusted her to guard his back. Lady Alecto is untouchable, they all say, not because she burns hot, but because she burns bright.”

the dwyres: edlin and nyle

“Don’t be so quick to dismiss his feelings. You and your brother are more alike than you realize.”

“If you mean we’re both stubborn, believe me – I know that more than anyone else. This time he’s made up his mind to be reckless, that little fool.”

“Actually, I only meant to say that you both have similar preferences in men. But… very well. Yours is better.”

“I-… I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

( …in which Edlin has no right to judge her twin about his crush )
( and she might be a little bitter about how it’s going better than her own )

( edlin’s story )

doodle dump – aro/ace OCs

AAAAAAAA sorry this is late anon, but yes yes of course! I have aro/ace OC’s who I love very much because I can relate to them the most!

I think the first ace OC I introduced in this blog is Ezra for Late Luck!

Ezra is an asexual and nonbinary teen superhero, is super smart and cute and sweet with a heart of gold. He’s got a sweet boyfriend, a best-friend-cousin and a tight-knit hero team! <3 I… never got to finish his story but he features prominently and talked a bit about his asexuality in the original Late Luck short.

For Volunteers, there are four in the team who fall under the aro/ace spectrum:

Luke, the newest member, identifies as heteroromantic asexual. He’s got a crush on lead girl Zoe. <3 His past experiences being experimented on has made him touch averse though, but he’s slowly growing more comfortable in his skin and in others’ presence with the help of his new family.

Current team leader Ross can conjure shields as his gift. He’s in a relationship with his childhood friend and previous leader, Iago, who had stepped back for a bit due to injury. It took them quite long to see each other in a romantic light since they always thought they were ill-fit for that kind of relationship. Ross is demiromantic ace, soft-spoken and shy, while Iago identifies as bi and had been quick to engage with others. But they made it work eventually, since they’ve been together so long that no one really understood each other like they did. (IT’S REALLY SWEET I SHOULD WRITE IT WHY IS IT JUST IN MY HEAD)

Dana, the team’s resident empath, is aro and ace. His powers had been a big part of him learning and accepting that he was aro/ace. He could feel romantic and sexual attraction through others, but he never really felt it by himself. He struggled to understand it at first, and thought of it as a weakness – an empath who couldn’t even feel love? But eventually he grew to learn that there were other forms of affection, that were no less important than romantic/sexual ones. Currently, he uses his powers to mentor younger kids as they learn how to use their own gifts. His calming powers come in handy when young kids can’t focus or panic in the verge of losing control.

Lastly, Clari, who has super-sight, is aro and ace as well! She’s Team Mom, and is in a queerplatonic relationship with Soren, who is basically Team Dad. They’re each other’s best friends and are in a platonic life partners kinda deal. They’re one of my fave relationships tbh… I wrote their story here: A Soft Place to Land.

And for The Road Home, lemme present these two married fools:

Brant and Aoife are both aro and ace. They grew up on the same small town, Brant an heir to an established weaponry forge and Aoife basically the town princess… which put them both in a similar position of having lots of admirers and suitors… which they didn’t really like. At first they just knew each other through a mutual friend: Enda. Down the line, with Enda settled out of town with her new family, these two grew closer, formed a legitimate friendship and one day came up with the brilliant idea to marry each other to get their parents and the whole town off their backs.

It worked. Plus the family business thrived because Aoife was a force of nature if someone only lets her run things.

Also they have a baby girl named Niamh and holy shit they’re really good at this parenting thing.

…and that is all of them! Thank you for the question, anon! I really love these kids! <3

doodle dump – trans OCs

O M G thank you so much, I’m glad you like my OCs! I try hard to have all sorts of representation in my characters and it’s really nice when it’s appreciated like this!

Here they are~

All three are part of my Volunteers series. Dove is a big sister to basically everyone on the team, but most specially for Garnet and Eli, who were both still in the closet before they joined.

Eli had doubts about people not taking him seriously because they might think he’s still too young to be sure on what gender he identifies as. Garnet also felt uncertain because even though she identifies as female, she’s not exactly ‘girly’. Dove has been there, and she helped them both gain more confidence in themselves.

I don’t have much content for them, but if you’re interested, Dove and Eli have a really sweet moment in my ‘Valentines Day’ short story.

Oh, and idk if you know about them, but I thought a post for my trans OCs isn’t complete if these two aren’t in them:

Helen is actually my latest OC who happens to be trans. She’s from my series The Road Home, which I’ll be sharing with y’all soon, so you’ll get to meet her and her friends! She’s a childhood friend of my main character Page and like him, she’s also an apprentice librarian.

Meanwhile, I don’t draw her often, but Kairi was my first ever trans OC, way back from a shoujo manga-esque series I used to write about back in, like, 2010. She’s a band vocalist and keyboardist. She’s got constellations on her arm. She has a super talented lead guitarist best friend and a beautiful culinary-student-slash-violinist girlfriend. I’ve forgotten most other details of that story but Kairi remains very very close to my heart. ^_^

I hope I didn’t overshare. *-*) Again! Thanks sooooo much for asking! I LOVE THESE KIDS A WHOLE LOT.
