Well alrighty then shaking the cobwebs question let's gooo
Hmm what are their feelings towards the mc at first? Why do they feel that way?
You can't see me but I am holding a broom and cleaning the cobwebs as we speak. It's honest work and that is all that matters.
As for your question, I answered this partly wayyyy back when I first started the blog here, but this is their impressions of the Villain before their self-imposed exile, and as such, I will be adding their feelings towards the MC post that exile.
Archie
Arcturus does not know how to feel about the Villain. Milo has kept him appraised of their adventures over the years, and he has begun to wonder if they have changed, but he remembers them from before the exile and he is conflicted. He hopes that what he has heard is true, he hopes that [SPOILER] means that they are no longer the person he remembers. But at the end of the day, this is merely a hope and he will have to wait and see.
Adhy
Adhara is wary of Ophiuchus' new Minister of Foreign Affairs. Tales of their exploits have reached her ears through Milo, and she has heard from [SPOILER] that the Villain is [REDACTED]. She is to take the wait and see approach, because she remembers their callousness with other noble children and the rumors she believes they spread regarding her brother. Like Arcturus, she is taking the wait and see approach, but unlike her brother, there is no hope within her, merely a patient sort of wariness.
Vicky
Victoria had only seen the Villain from affair, but she knows of their reputation and has seen them at their worst. She might have been from a lesser noble family, but she has always been watchful and she notices things. Her love for life makes it so she is willing to welcome the Villain with open arms as Milo's reports do show a change in character, but even then, she keeps a wary eye out for she won't allow them to ruin what she has built.
Carmen
There is no mixed opinion, no doubt on this case. Carmen hates the Villain for their bullying. She is not aware of the Villain's exploit's abroad, so to her, it seems as if her old bully is returning victorious after gaining everything they wanted and more. It is made worse by the fact that she knows the story and knows [SPOILER] so she worries that they are playing right into their hands.
Milo
Funnily enough, for all that Milo's job exposes him to the worst of humanity, he is the one that has the most faith in the Villain at the beginning of the story. Since he gained his position as Spy Master, he took special care to pay close attention to the Villain and he has seen how they have changed and their feats. Still, he is aware that he was not one of their victims so it is not his place to forgive the Villain, and he knows that the Villain might regress to their old self once they return 'home', so he has kept his opinion to himself.
Blake
Simply put, they do not care about your previous reputation. To them, all you are is a potential rival. As another person blessed with the Obscurae Arcana since birth, the Villain had a much better life than Blake could have dreamed off when they were young. As such, they want to surpass the Villain's accomplishments and demonstrate that they are stronger than them, better than them because it was Blake who abolished the unjust laws against the Obscurae Arcana, not the Villain. Not Navis.
Val
Yet another person who has no previous relations with the Villain. Xyr opinion of the Villain is simple: xe cannot judge them for things they did before xe knew them, so xe will wait and see what is the Villain's behavior once they meet.
Rowan
Even before Milo, Rowan is the biggest supporter of the Villain. Fae knows more about the Villain than anyone else, bar Orion, and that means that fae trusts them explicitly. Fae knows their struggles and know that they regrets their actions, has seen their efforts to change.

🔥 Piping Hot OC Asks 🔥
👂 : Does your OC have an attractive voice?
I am just going to quote and link to the voice post I did for the ROs in case you are interested in any of their voices too! This is the description I have for Blake:
Their voice is hoarse, as if the just woke up from a nightmare screaming. They speak lowly, in a rumbling tone, as if a great storm were gathering in the distance. There is power to their words, each one spoken as if it was a spell ready to fell you down. When they speak, their presence seems to expand, drawing both the eye and respect. Blake’s voice has an hypnotic quality to it.
So yes, I would say their voice is attractive.
👃 : Does your OC smell good? Do they have a signature scent?
.... Anon I am so sorry to tell you that it truly depends on the day. While Blake loves their luxuries and long baths, they tend to spend days upon days on research spirals in the library without bothering to bathe. Still, being surrounded by old books has an advantage because on those days when they are in the middle of a research spiral they smell musty- yest- but also vaguely like vanilla and freshly cut grass. Otherwise, they smell like a combination of lavender, lemon and thyme.
Facts about Blake Ephimetheus, Court Mage Extraordinary:
They can't handle spicy food. At all. Their tongue is fairly sensitive so even foods most consider to be mildly spicy are too much for them. Will they admit it? No, of course, that is a weakness and Blake refuses to admit he has any.
Yes, that means that if you put a plate of spicy food in front of them, they will eat it, even if it means their mouth is on fire for the rest of the day.
Idiot (affectionate)
Their favorite food is seafood. Cook him something nice and they might even smile at you.
Feed them, in general, and their regard for you will increase.
Blake has multiple scars, usually hidden underneath a high collar and long sleeves. The stories behind them untold, and they hide them more often than not. Not because they are ashamed - their scars are badges of honor which signify their survival ) but merely because their scars are none of your business. Not yet.
They enjoy the luxuries their position as a Master of the Magic Tower affords them. Decadent chocolates, sinfully soft velvets, feathery soft silks. They love them all.
And yet, they find the opulence of Court annoying. Even more so, when added to Court etiquette. Why bother with sweet words, when you have a job to do?
The people have become a blur, dancing and twirling underneath the glittering chandelier. The dance floor is filled with afterimages, beautiful specters illuminated by the shimmering magic light.
It’s a beautiful sight. It’s a beautiful New Year’s party.
Or it should be, if Blake had not decided to slip past your grip on the most inopportune of times. Finding Val amidst the crowd was not an issue— the Knight Commander stood tall and dashing on their full military regalia as they spoke with High General Vexillum—, finding the 5’2” asshole you had fallen in love with was. Of all things, they had picked to slip away from your grasp as you turned away to greet a foreign dignitary, and the traps of social niceties had prevented you from following.
Needless to say, you were rather concerned.
Blake got overwhelmed easily amidst crowds, and while they had gotten better at it, you still feared that the event had been too much. As your eyes met Val’s, you could see the same concern had crossed their mind. Tilting your head slightly, you raise a brow in inquiry and barely hold in a sigh when they shake their head.
It seems that even with Val’s vantage point next to the dais, Blake could not be found. That could only mean one thing: they had chosen to leave the ballroom. Worry settling into your bones, you move through the crowds like a ghost, twirling and stepping past any obstacle with only a goal in mind: finding your wayward lover. From the corner of your eye, you can see Val has the same idea. They disengage from their talk with Duchess Vexillum, and begin walking through the crowd as it parts before them.
Your paths cross near one of the secret passages out the ballroom and your eyes meet.
You bow, a little mischief illuminating your face despite the worry on your gut.
“Knight Commander,” you greet, voice soft as crooning as you look at them from beneath your lashes.
They smile, disarmed despite the worry in their green eyes.
“Dux Navis,” they answer, hand going to their heart as they bow to you as they maintain eye contact. “Looking for a wayward Court Mage, I presume?”
You hold back an indelicate snort, and offer up your arm.
“You presume right, dear one,” you say as their arm wraps around your bicep as is proper and squeezes oh so softly. “I suppose we are in the same predicament, are we not? Shall we look for our dear kitty cat together?”
“We shall,” they agree. “Now, where has our wandering stray run off to?”
There is a beat of the music, and you share a look.
“The belltower,” you speak at once, and begin moving as a unit missing a piece.
It takes no time at all to reach the belltower, and the two of you head to the bell room with a confidence born of an intimate knowledge of Blake Ephimetheus.
You find them where you expected, standing in front of a stained glass mural depicting the First Year of the Blessed with their back turned to the door. Moonlight bathes their figure, golden hair coldly under It’s glow. At the sound of the door, they turn, and their golden eyes flash, illuminating the room with a golden glow.
They are breathtaking.
Your steps slow as you take your time to preserve the vision in front of you, but Val is not as patient. Their hand leaves your arm and they cross the gaping distance with a few steps, falling to one knee once they have reached Blake. Calloused hands pull Blake’s gloved hands to their lips, and Val places a tender kiss to their knuckles.
“Okay?”
Blake’s glare softens and nods as their hand moves to cup Val’s cheek and they lean down to place a soft kiss upon their forehead. A benediction to someone they hold so dear, a reassurance to their white knight.
“Okay.”
You feel the tension leaving your frame, and finally, you walk up to them, a thrum in your veins as you hold back the desire to run to their arms. To your home.
There is an unspeakable tenderness in Blake's eyes as they reach for you and pull you closer, their free hand settling on the small of your back as your foreheads bump together.
“What is this, the most esteemed Dux Navis, avoiding their courtly responsibilities?” They tease, voice soft and warm as their eyes crinkle in a hidden smile.
“For you, my dearest Court Mage? For our dear knight?” You breath out softly as you hear Val stand up and feel their arms surrounding both of you. “I would lay down my title and my lands.”
Blake’s breath hitches, but they roll their eyes.
“You are a sap,” they tell you very seriously as they tilt their head to brush their lips against yours and Val places a kiss on the crown of your head. “We would never ask for that. Your work nourishes your joy, and your joy nourishes us.”
You laugh warmly, freely, as you feel the prick of tears on your eyes.
“Well, now who is the sap?” You ask, voice wobbling under the sudden rush of emotions that has enveloped you.
“I thought we had agreed,” Val begins with a hum as they step back and leans to brush their lips against yours, then Blake’s. “I thought we had agreed, we are all the biggest sap in this relationship.”
Blake snorts.
“You just don’t want to restart the argument again,” they say accusingly.
“Of course not,” Val agrees easily. “Why fight, when we can cuddle instead?”
“You have met Blake, right?” You ask, playing along as one of your arms snakes around Blake’s waist and you look at Val. “Fighting is how they communicate affection.”
Blake’s hip meets yours as they send a mildly annoyed look your way.
“I said I was sorry,” they grumble. “Spirits. You decide someone is your rival, once, and people never let you hear the end of it.”
I'm the one who sent in the ask about the ROs voices and yeah, those kind of descriptions work!! I'm just a very auditory person so I like something to go off of!
ROs Voices
Archie
His voice is smooth like velvet. There is no hesitation when he speaks, every word he utters sounds deliberate. Archie speaks neither too fast nor too slow, finding a middle ground which causes others to stop and pay attention. Hearing him speak leaves you with a warmth on your chest and a lightness in your step.
Adhy
Adhy's voice is soft, like the sound of rushing water on the distance, but when she speaks, you listen. There is a weight to everything she says, an importance that you cannot ignore. Her words are always calculated to coax a reaction from her audience, be it concern or admiration.
Vicky:
Vicky speaks as if each word was a note, each sentence a song. Her voice is lilting and calming, cradling you and reassuring you everything will be alright. There is a familiarity to it you can't put your finger on. Vicky's voice is the voice of an old friend welcoming you home.
Carmen
Her voice is the voice of a main character. There is no other way to explain it. When she speaks, her words resonate deep in your bones, calling forth whatever feeling she wants. Naturally authoritative, people stop and listen to what Carmen has to say. Full of cheer and warmth, her voice is akin to the stars.
Milo
His voice is husky and smoky, as if his every word went up in smoke as he finished speaking them. His words are quiet, as if his every sentence was whispered, but they carry just as far as he wants them to. There is an inherent joy and mischief on his tone, dripping from his every word and making you believe that he knows something you don't and he is enjoying your obliviousness.
Blake
Their voice is hoarse, as if the just woke up from a nightmare screaming. They speak lowly, in a rumbling tone, as if a great storm were gathering in the distance. There is power to their words, each one spoken as if it was a spell ready to fell you down. When they speak, their presence seems to expand, drawing both the eye and respect. Blake's voice has an hypnotic quality to it.
Val:
Val's voice is naturally boisterous and can be heard from long distances. Is the voice of a general rallying the troops for war. The voice of a commander in the midst of battle. It was a voice made to carry and to be heard. To reassure their allies and frighten their enemies. It is the voice of a soldier.
Rowan:
Their voice is feathery. A soft brush over your skin, drawing you in by it's ethereal quality. It's the voice of a deity, crooning to be worshipped and adored. It's the voice of temptation and sin, meant to sooth and draw you in. Their every word mesmerizes you, eyes drawn to them as a moth to a flame.

i think originally rowan and then artie (and MAAAAYBE carmen). but the reveal of the '>[' energy/catpersoness of blake has shot them to the top, im betting.
Yeah, all thinks considered you would think that the Demon Monarch, the Prince and the Heroine would be the most popular ones because of how most of the Villainess stories make good arguments for those kind of stories.
I do think that I created a dangerous combination with Blake, though. Not only are they nyanbinary/a catboy/girl but they also fall into the trope "and they were rivals" , as well as having the personality of an angry chihuahua and being short 💖
Hey so i was wondering, how much is the envy level of ROs and their reactions? And I really liked the story idea and I'm also looking forward to it.
The ROs and Envy
Alright, so here is the envy levels for each RO on a general level. I can’t give you their reactions, because that depends on what they are envying and there is too many options for that.
Archie:
2/10
Archie is not very envious in general. He is royalty, after all, and he already can get whatever earthly material he desires, he only needs to demand it.
Adhy:
3/10
She mostly envies the fact that people have less responsibilities than she does, but she enjoys her life nonetheless and she knows that she can get most things she wants, so she doesn’t see much of the point of being envious.
Vicky:
1/10
She truly sees no point on envying other people when she can work to get whatever she wants and earn it by her personal achievements. Yes, sometimes she wants things but she doesn’t tend to envy people who have those things.
Carmen
6/10
Not necessarily the most envious of people, Carmen does tend to feel envy more often than some of the other ROs. Blame it on her childhood as an impoverished member of the nobility, or on whatever you want. The truth is simply, it is rare, but Carmen does crave for what others have once in a while.
Milo
5/10
This score has changed since Milo’s childhood. Circumstances have made him less likely to envy and covet what others have, because luck granted him a chance to work for the money he needed to satisfy his cravings. Still, sometimes he envies the fabricated freedom and careless life the nobility has crafted for themselves.
Blake:
9/10
Blake wants and wants and wants. They have wanted since their days on the streets and continued to do so every step of the way. Nothing will ever satisfy them, for they always will desire for more. For a better life, more knowledge. They will crave and envy those who they imagine have what they desire.
Val:
7/10
They envy nobility and the ease in which they go through life, without a care in the world. They envy those who can live without fearing for how they are going to feed their family. They-. They wish they could have the power to protect those they care from harm.
Rowan:
4/10
They like to say that as the Demon Monarch they don’t need nor have envy. The truth is slightly different, however. Circumstances have made it so Rowan envies those who live peaceful lives without the fear of betrayal. They envy those who are not afraid of the truth, because they are.
