After the deaths of your four oldest siblings, taken from you by war, your older sibling, Nour, once fifth in line for the Solar Imperial throne, is now the heir. 

This day never should have happened. 

As recompense for the ravages your kingdom’s war has inflicted upon the Lunar kingdom of Celestyl, and as assurance it will not happen again, your sibling is to be sent to Celestyl to marry the Lunar King’s heir. An arranged marriage, meant to unite the kingdoms. Or, at least that’s how everyone prefers to phrase it. But you all recognize this for what it really is: a guise. Your sibling will be a political hostage.

And—Theia, grant you guidance—you have had a premonition this is not the worst to come. Should your sibling go to Celestyl, they will not survive.

So you will take their place.

Stygian Sun: Total Eclipse is a dark fantasy interactive fictional story where you play as the sixth child in the proud and grandiose Solar Imperial Dynasty and leave your homeland for a foreign country, where you will take your sibling’s place in an arranged marriage to the heir to the Lunar Kingdom. But something sinister simmers on the horizon—you have felt it in your premonitions; apprehension crawls beneath your skin, foreboding pricks at the back of your neck, dread sinks low and heavy in your stomach. Theia is warning you—of what, you know not, but you have seen the way the Lunar King looks at you. His stare, the dagger, and you, the sacrificial lamb on the altar.  Beware the wolf, little lamb.

hypothetically speaking, if I wanted to understand what you're implying, which level would I need to sub at...?

So, as a reaction to this ask, so, here's one thing about dear Callum, this creature(endearing) is as ace as ace can be, might as well only be able to reproduce through binary fission. On top of that, as an artist and a healer, they're very used to seeing naked bodies in anatomy studies or the like, their opinion is just "Ok, that's A Human Body, there's a lot of interesting variation in bodies, they can be very beautiful, but I don't see the big deal", also just much more interested in drawing other animals anyway

So I imagine that this happens after Cal has gotten more comfortable around L, while they're drawing, and they simply look up like "can I help with anything?", not paying attention, gets very focused when drawing, and after the offended reaction, Cal goes "Oh, Im sorry, it's just.. I didn't notice any difference? I mean.. thinking about it, the contrast of your hair and skin agaist the coat is pretty striking, you'd be very fun to draw. And purple really suits you, goes well with the yellow of your eyes... tho I might be biased, purple is my favorite color" All while looking at L with the same focus they give to their references and paintings, pointing out things about them that would look good in a painting

And also, horniness will at best be met with indifference and at worst discomfort, if L wants to fluster Cal, what they gotta do is be romantic with them, like, tuck a flower (made of paper, they're allergic) behind their ear and tell them something true and beautiful, that will do the trick

Double points if Luca is actually alive and you just. Put the two in the same room together.

(cropped your ask cuz im pretty sure it was you who sent another ask off anon and realized later you’d meant to use anon and i had this ask from earlier in my drafts and it wasnt on anon either :) 👍)

Kieran, Samira: both agonize forever over whether they are reading MC's tone correctly or not and no it couldn't possibly be but maybe..??

Nihm: wouldn't clock it as lovestruck cuz they oblivious as hell but they'd be like yay my fren is thinking of meee :D ❤️🐛💖🌈✨😳

Lilith/Lucien: LETS FUCKING GOOOO followed immediately by agh fuck (guilt complex activate)

Also, I'm going out on a limb and guessing they may have some kind of ability to connect to others via their dreams/astral project, though that's less predictable and controlled, so they aren't fully aware of it or their continual visits to MCs dreams.

Me thinks anon should try subscribing to patreon (if they can) 👀👀 Actually I think everyone should if they can 👀 so many good stuff there 👀👀

(In all seriousness I absolutely adore how you write your characters, they’re all so expressive and visceral and utterly human. I also love how you portray the MC and their emotions cause it adds so much to their character and it makes them really feel like a person that’s in the story and not just a robot doing things to progress the plot.)

Not because they wouldn't want him that way. They just wouldn't want to go too far with someone who works this closely with/for them.

His relationship with sex seems to be complicated, and I'm wondering if he would be actually relieved that this isn't something MC wants from him. At the same time, his ego seems to be bigger than his balls, and I could see him get offended that MC would sleep with everyone but him.

I could totally see him seducing MC. Not because he wants them - he just wants them to admit that THEY want HIM. And then leave before any sex actually happens, lol.

Unless MC like straight up insulted him and hit a nerve, he wouldn’t be offended—he’s actually never really instigated anything beyond kissing between him and MC so far. He has considered it, but fears MC too much. He’ll only start making offers of sex after going to Celestyl for other reasons. His relationship with sex is quite complicated, and L will give you a warning in a future update if the player has any romance points with Aurynn, which you should heed :))))

I need to climb Kieran like a HORSE fuck
