Singer Chili

5’1, Right-Handed, Red Eyes, Red Hair, Aries

The singer and guitarist of Screaming Color and most committed to the punk aesthetic. This may include blood.

Of note—everyone in Screaming Color dyes their hair and wears color contacts. For theme purposes :P

Probably the most distinctly “punk” of the bunch, I based her outfit off a punk outfit I found on image search. Comes complete with spiky jewelry, piercings, and a guitar! That was as much a bitch to draw as Claret’s harp was XD Her shirt has a skull, but the guitar blocks it.

Chili’s very much the violent, aggressive, “in your face” type, flips out at a moment’s notice. Makes her relationship with her bandmates a bit icy (not helped by the fact that their practice sessions keep getting interrupted by murder, and sometimes one of them is the one being arrested for murder). Damn good musician, though. Lurid private life aside :P

Bassist Cadmium

5’10, Right-Handed, Yellow Eyes, Yellow Hair, Virgo

The bassist of Screaming Color. A perfectionist who will see their success, no matter who has to die for it.

Second time drawing a character with dozens of tiny braids ^^; I’ll be blunt, I don’t really know how to draw, like, tattoos going all the way up the arms, so I just…used chains because lazy? ^^; I like her piercings, though. And fishnets. The tattoo on her torso is of a knife stabbing a heart. Kinda like the one on Umber’s arm :P

Cadmium is a perfectionist, maybe a bit of a control freak—she likes knowing where everything is at all times, which causes friction between her and the more free-wheeling Chili. She’s a bit estranged from her family for reasons she doesn’t talk about, and part of the reason she’s so devoted to the band’s success is because she doesn’t really have much else.

…

Why did that get sad—

Drummer Electric

5’5, Left-Handed, Blue Hair, Blue Eyes, Cancer

The drummer of Screaming Color. Punk in the same way steampunk is: the aesthetic and nothing else.

I’m not even punk and I want Electric’s jacket 👀 But yeah. He’s, like, the least punk person here. I imagine he’s a bit reluctant to fully embrace The Look™️. But again—I love his jacket. And his hair. Long (or, uh, semi-long)-haired pretty boys for the win ^^

Electric joined the band to play music and have new experiences; he’s a bit too meek to properly adopt the punk aesthetic. Chili and Cadmium are maybe a bit less than pleased with that :P But they don’t have any other drummers, so he stays. They might be looking for a replacement. Which actually pisses him off.

When Irratino’s mothers died, I’d like to imagine that one of his butlers decided to take care of him during his child, teen and young adult hood. His name was Butler Beige, by the time volume 1 starts, he is extremely old and people are suspecting he could die at any second due to how frail he was. Irratino was still running the investigation institute but still able to interact his father figure and care for him if needed. During Occult medium, when Irratino and Logico were at Irratino’s mansion, he introduced Beige to Logico and they surprisingly hit it off, both being interested in puzzles and Beige liking the murdle books.

This is where the depressing part happens.

During the time Irratino fakes his death, he told some people about it(mostly his staff and some people at the mansion) so he wouldn’t feel completely alone during this period of hiding. But then, one of the maids rings Irratino and tells him that Butler Beige had a heart attack and is in the hospital. Irratino was already upset about this news but he remembered something that made the feeling even worse. He forgot to tell Beige he was faking his death.

So, Irratino rushed to the hospital and asked the nurse where beige was being treated. He ran to the room as soon as he can and saw the man whose taken the role of caregiver ever since his mothers perished, laying on his hospital bed, close to death. Irratino sat next to Beige and held his hand and kept telling him that everything was going to be okay, tears flowing down his cheeks. Those tears got even worse when Beige kept thinking he was a ghost. Nearly 40 minutes of this comforting and heartbreak until-

BEEEEEEEEEEP

Beige’s hand went cold. Irratino was shaking with sorrow as tears shivered down his face. He was gone. The man who offered to be his parental guardian when it was announced his mother’s died was dead. Irratino walked out of the building feeling like a part of his soul was ripped out and when he made it back to his mansion, he spent the rest of the day sobbing his eyes out.

Losing Logico’s trust made the feeling worse. He now lost two people now in the span of a single week. A week. He kept up his charming facade whenever Logico placed a phone call to him but afterwards? Multiple hours of uninterrupted sobbing until the phone ringed again.

After he and Logico reconciled and defeated Midnight III, Irratino then thought an equally worse thing: how Logico would react to hearing that the kind old Butler had died. So, Irratino visited Logico’s apartment and told him the bad news: Butler Beige had died in the hospital. Logico, despite only meeting him for a day, started tearing up and later began crying; he liked that man and unlike other fans he was actually respectful and kind. Both of them Mourned Beige at his gravestone and placed two bouquets near it.
