Sewer Crypt

Chapter One

What would happen if Raph, Donnie, Casey, and April were never cured?

The night air was chilly, especially up on the rooftops. Perhaps too chilly for mid june, but it didn’t bother him, not anymore anyway. In fact, he loved it, reveled in it actually. The bite of the cool breeze in his throat tasted like power. It tasted safe. Safe as this side of the city. The stars were bright here and he was glad for it. The telltale light pollution of civilization disgusted him, it reminded him far too much of the burn of sunrise. But this part of the city had been taken by his kind long ago.

Never had he actually found the darkness of night all that dark. Whether or not that was the result of his dimly glowing eyes or just the abilities that came with the transformation was beyond him. At the moment, It didn’t matter either way because it allowed him to watch his newest batch of ghouls run around the street like roughhousing children. He enjoyed watching them, it took his mind off things.

He’d always been a natural at controlling ghouls. Even back when he was a little fledgling surviving off spiders and rats. He still had his baby fangs back then. That thought brought a smile to his face, one that quickly faded when his mind provided another memory from back then. The time he’d invited his brothers to join him. He was quite naive at the time and he wished he could go back to give his younger self the cold, hard truth and maybe a slap to the face. His hand reached up to his bicep to fiddle with a long, red piece of fabric tied around his sleeve. A habit his master encouraged. It probably made him easier to manipulate, whatever, he didn’t really care all that much.

Pulling his hand away quickly, he reminded himself he still had one of his brothers and two of his friends. Sighing loudly he pulled out his phone and a not so quiet cuss rang out. Taking a deep breath of air, he let out a bone chilling screech that echoed across multiple blocks. His ghouls took action immediately. Scrambling through open doors and windows and into sewer grates and manholes. There were even some clambering into ventilation shafts at the top of buildings. It looked like chaos, and it was, but they all had one goal in mind; to get out of the open. The time was 4:30, far too close to dawn for his comfort.

He himself hastily made his way to a manhole, jumping off the building he had stood on. He hated taking the sewers, they were filled with painful memories from… less complicated times. His hand wandered to the strip of red, tattered fabric just as his mind wandered to old memories. Memories of laughter, memories of fighting, of crying and hugging, of joy, of playing and injury, training and youth, memories of brotherhood.

“Raphael!” A voice yelled way too close behind him. Startled, he whipped around to see a pair of familiar glowing eyes.

“Donnie?” His voice sounded shakier than he anticipated. He blinked away tears he hadn’t realized were there and cleared his throat. His brother's annoyed expression morphed into pity. He hated that. “What the hell, man? You scared the shit outta me!” His voice had a lot less bite than he wanted.

“Look where you are.” Donnie’s voice came out unimpressed and somehow it was worse than pity. “I’ve called your name like twenty times!”

Raph glanced around the environment and quickly realized where his brother's worry had come from. He was in his old room in the old lair, muscle memory must have taken him here when he wasn’t paying attention. Weird. He’d think after thirty three years his body would know not to go here anymore. It was the exact same as it was all those years ago, minus the thick layer of dust that seemed to coat everything, he also noticed that his extra mask was nowhere in sight but he decided not to think about the implications of that.

“Oh, whoops! Muscle memory am I right?” He forced a smile onto his face which Donnie immediately gave a look to.

“That’s probably the single worst fake smile I have ever seen.” Raph decided Donnie’s deadpan was definitely worse than pity.

He chewed the inside of his cheek and kept from meeting his gaze. Had he always found it this difficult to lie to his purple clad twin?

“Sorry.” He eventually managed to sigh out.

“Don’t, just… don’t. Let’s just go home.” Raph couldn’t help but wince internally. He hated making Donnie worry, he was his only brother who didn’t see him as some death obsessed, bloodthirsty monster. Probably because he was one too.

Day 1 of 6: Willow!

Recently I had to buy a new pen for my tablet, and as a celebration of getting a new one, and getting back to art after a month of nothing, I’m doing a redraw of the Owl House season 2b finally.

I am so excited to see the full project, and for the new season, whenever that may be. I will definitely be doing more work with the Owl House too; stay tuned!

Hi hello! Okay, problem!

So, since The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals came out and I have watched it, (and waited for it to get popular on Tumblr) I had wanted to do a Voltron AU of it. But the problem is, I don’t have a clue on who I want to be who, or if it is still “musical” or regular life. And I have no idea who I want to be who for the AU.

That also goes into another problem. Shipping. Now, I know the Voltron fandom is a little temperamental when it comes to shipping, and I don’t want to poke the bear with who I want to be Rmma and Paul, Charlotte and Sam, and everyone else it the musical that is married or together with someone. So, with that being said, I have like 4 characters that I must have as the final characters in the AU, that I am not going to say, obviously, but I need ideas! I need help!

So, what I am trying to get across is, WHO WANT’S TO HELP ME WITH AN AU! If you would leave your answers in the comments, or tweeting me on Twitter, if you have it, it can really help me out. Thank you!!!

I originally drew this two years ago, getting inspiration from a Barbie movie I watched for nostalgia. I wanted to do more characters, but burnout hit me hard and I didn’t continue. Maybe I can do that again 🤔
