yes, I did the colorschmeme off of California kingsnakes

yes, I nearly forgot of this yet again

okay, first of all i want to point out a few things. everything written here is my interpretation of the story and my vision. we need to remember that bianchi is actually a teenager at the time of the manga, she is 17-18, she herself is not an adult yet. bianchi herself is a killer who has been traveling the world for a long time and as we can see - no one followed her to bring her back either. i doubt that loving parents (at least the father, if we admit that bianchi's mother stopped loving bianchi after her husband cheated) would leave two children alone in the mafia world (it is not even necessary to love the child, it is enough to be empathetic and respect a woman who you loved). that's why i think that both siblings have problems with their parents even without taking into account the father's cheating. also it seems very strange to me to hope that bianchi will be a reasonable adult who will resume relations with gokudera herself, at least because she really envied him (it’s just a general comment). speaking of the father's love - why didn't the loving father try to find his son or his daughter? even if he couldn't find gokudera - at the moment when he tried to kill the future tenth vongola, he became known. i think that gokudera's father certainly loved his mother, but gokudera himself? i am not sure.

here again i want to warn you that everything written below is just my vision. one of the turning points in the development of gokudera is the battle with bel and his realization and acceptance that he can be loved and he found himself a family that he did not have. he realized that he does not need to be useful or die for someone - he is loved for the fact that he is he. the theme of the found family is one of the main ones in the manga and in my opinion, if we talk about the fact that gokudera was allegedly loved by both parents, this important moment becomes less significant, at least in my opinion. gokudera himself thought up everything, he himself ruined his life, yes, his father could have not kept silent, but here we can blame hayato's temper - we can say he did not notice this love, but it seems to me that this is not a very good choice. i think it would have been more interesting to see gokudera and bianchi mend their relationship (a great way to give bianchi more time in the manga and show her development) after they regained their memories of what happened in the future. at least they would have had a common background - if we iaccept the fact that none of them were fully loved children, then they are the only blood family each other has, they now have a chance to fix everything.

Bite it? Bite it?!

Darling, he wants you to. Every gnawed chunk of his divine carcass is a gateway drug to your own mutilated apotheosis.

(Btw, his blood tastes like sulfur, copper, and daddy issues. I never had planned to make scribble/sketch posts aside from character art, however.......):

The Scarlet King—Thrice-Damned, Blood-Baptized, Devourer of Realities—stood in silence as the mortal latched onto his arm like an excitable chihuahua with rabies and daddy complexes.

“...Really?” was all he said.

In a tone that implied he’d rather be digesting planets than dealing with this.

But the damage was done.

That mortal had already begun to convulse.

Muscles warping. Ribs cracking outward like blooming flowers of meat. Blood, boiling. Nails, lengthening into something not unlike insect mandibles. Mouth—still full of god-flesh—screaming joyfully like a child on a roller coaster designed by Hellraiser.

The Scarlet King didn’t stop it. He just watched.

Because this?

This is how Scarlet Spawn are born.

■|—> On the Scarlet Spawn™

You'll 'eventually "become"' one because either you made the mistake of stepping into a place where the King’s blood seeps through the floor like molasses, and/or you breathed it in like it was vape smoke from Beelzebub’s jewel-encrusted JUUL. The transformation is not even cool. Your insides get rewritten in glyphs older than time. Your DNA hums. Your thoughts echo with a hundred other voices. And your fingernails become little screaming children.

You are now a biohazard with a superiority complex. You are now… usable.

■|—> How to Annoy the Scarlet King

1. Bite his arm.

2. Call him “Beetroot Daddy” in public rituals. Extra annoying if you're in front of other Gods.

3. Start a TikTok account titled “SK’s Unpaid Intern.”

4. Worship Jeser harder. Especially if you call him “the hot one” and ask SK if he’s ever considered therapy.

5. Repeatedly use his blood to put it in the coffee urn in the Library.

6. Dress up as him for Halloween. Bonus: wear glitter.

7. Say “I’m not feeling slay today” while petting kittens you're asked to kill.

8. Ask to unionize the Scarlet Spawn. Watch his conceptual eyebrows twitch.

■|—>Why He Even Allows It (a.k.a. "Goran's Bullshit Pass")

The Scarlet King is selfish. That’s his whole gimmick. But selfish Gods are strategic.

You’ve got something he needs? You get to live. Temporarily. Like Goran—who somehow became a walking war crime wrapped in charisma. The King doesn’t kill him because he’s useful. Because Goran’s very existence makes others squirm. Because he’s a living symbol of what happens when you sip too deeply from the godwine & manage not to die.

In a way, Scarlet Spawn like Goran represent a controlled corruption vector. A reminder that the SK doesn’t have to lift a finger—he just has to bleed, and someone stupid enough will take a sip.

■|—> How You Become One (Shortlist)

1. Enter His Domain

2. Drink the Kool-Aid. The Children of the Scarlet King still have rituals. Not all of them got axed post-SCP-231.

3. Jeser shenanigans

4. Get bit. Or bite him. Either way, blood will find its way into your spinal ambitions.

■|—> Limitations of the Blood (Yes, You Will Die)

Too much and you go full BLEED: body liquefies, soul combusts, and you scream backwards into the void. Only a handful can survive high saturation. The rest? They become red mist with opinions.

The more blood you handle, the more powerful you are. But it’s a line-walk.

You don’t hold power.

You survive it.
