#acheflow

I was going to do this last night, but things happened and I fell asleep; I'm sorry! But here goes! I'll toss it under a Read More to keep things small!

6. Putting your hand on your lover's chest as they doze peacefully into the couch arm, focusing on the subtle beat of their heart on your hand.

Aren't they all? Haven't I traumatized all of them in some way? Haha, okay, in all seriousness...

Rhianwyn has been through rough times. Not only did she have her childhood snatched (like Gwendolyn) through the witch hunt, watching her home burn, going on the run, and she was trying to protect her sister from their mother's vengeful plotting? This girl has major issues, lots of trauma she couldn't even begin to process as a child, and she's been groomed to be her mother's perfect tool for revenge. She'll never admit to it though. (She needs a hug, I'm sorry Rhia)

Then there's Acheflow, who literally sees everyone she touches die. Including her mom. I think that explains her, but she'll never say it bothered her even as a kid. She's pretty open about how it changed her life, so...

Probably Lou, because they like things that are quick and easy, and why not eat a spoonful of peanut butter? It's yummy!

Here, I'll do this for Acheflow, because I actually just caught sight of the doll I made ages of her!

Send “Bloop” to my inbox and I’ll spout a random fun fact about one of my OCs

I'll do both, because it'll be fun, and I will never turn down a chance to talk about Lou!

Send an ask with two names of my original characters and I’ll give a summary of what they think of each other! (Or, if they never interact in canon, I’ll tell you what they would think of each other if they were to meet!)

Lou and Acheflow

These two adore each other... as much as Acheflow adores anyone, at least.

Lou thinks of Acheflow as the big sister they never had. Plus, they are so beyond happy that Acheflow accepts them fully, without even one questioning look. There's just no hesitation, and Acheflow is so ready to tear down anyone who would hurt or even just annoy Lou, and that's an experience Lou has never had before. They never thought they weren't cared for, but getting that instant, unconditional affection from someone who isn't family? Lou is just so excited, and at the same time, so so eager to prove themselves to Acheflow.

On the other hand, Acheflow sees so much of her mom in Lou. They have that same optimism, the same carefree and cheerful nature, the same stubbornness about proving themselves and making their own way. In a way, protecting Lou started out as an extension of saving her mom; if she couldn't do it before, she would do it this time, with this tiny teenage child who is exploring collapsing ruins and the dangerous world alone, someone has to at least keep an eye on them. But Lou's own individual quirks and personality quickly shine through, so the bond between the two does become more real and sibling-like, and there is a mutual respect between the two!

Lou and Tobias

There's a bit more strain in this relationship; while they both respect each other, neither one would be happy to admit it. They do actually like each other, but they're both more similar than they'd like to admit, and it causes some clashing between the two.

They are both competitive, and since Lou very firmly considers Acheflow as their big sister, they are skeptical of Tobias' motivations and are not too fond of the fact that his interest becomes romantic, because no one is good enough for big sis Acheflow, no one at all, thank you very much. Lou also does not appreciate Tobias treating them like a little kid, or doubting their abilities, even if those worries are actually coming from his concern and desire to keep them safe.

Tobias doesn't like putting anyone at risk on his quest, and he is more than a little concerned about the small teenager that essentially jumps in halfway, leading them through a dark tunnel and haunted ruins. He also has issues with younger people being in danger because of his sisters, so he does project a little on Lou, and can be overprotective.

Of course! This one will be fun to do!

Send an ask with two names of my original characters and I’ll give a summary of what they think of each other!

These two would not like each other. They would appreciate the other's strengths, but would not want to be in the same room if they had the choice.

Acheflow would think Scarlet is too impulsive, too loud, too big of a presence for her to deal with. She would also likely think Scarlet is childish and petty, which are not traits that she would want to tolerate for long... if at all. However, she would admire and appreciate how honest Scarlet, and how she won't compromise her values to fit society's norms.

And here is artbreeder Acheflow! And no editing on this one, which is super cool!
