Before Pride Month ends, I wanted to create a series of artworks featuring canon couples in my AUs. It's only fair to start with ShadowVanilla, because they're the reason I joined and still an active member of the fandom
I'm genuinely surprised that I still have a fixation on this couple since usually I bounce between fandoms and don't stay for too long. So, such a long-term hyperfixation on one specific couple, lasting an entire year, truly surprises me and makes me actually incredibly happy
As for the sexual orientations of these two, it's funny that most people in the fandom also categorize the characters as pan and gay duo. But Shadow Milk is usually also considered non-binary or genderfluid. I personally don't headcanon him as one, and see him purely as a cis man who can play any needed role (including turning into a woman)
I also have a headcanon for Shadow Milk based on my personal experience but I don't know if I have the right to share it because this headcanon might seem strange in regards to trans people, which would not be my intention, and I wouldn't want to offend anyone with my personal interpretation
