@2shytosaytummy thinking about how some of the v.nc characters experience hunger and being full, at least some of the ones you mentioned. please add on if you have any thoughts hehe, read more for my thoughts~
v.anitas: it’s canon that he only eats enough to keep going and be able to move around (hot tbh, because he must be a complainer when he’s actually full) so his stomach is not very noisy when hungry. you’ll have the occasional growl, but overall it’s quiet. however, it’s a different story when he’s stuffed. very embarrassed about his digestion. he burps a lot.
n.oé: insert that one panel of him with the belly growl…. yeah. everyone around him knows when he’s hungry, thanks to his belly. n.oé isn’t phased much by his bodily functions, and acts casual about it. he doesn’t see what is so embarrassing about his body. the vampire has a big appetite and happily eats and eats, until he feels a twinge of pain…. he has zero shame rubbing his gut in public, but he never forgets his manners! n.oé’s stomach is extremely active when full, though not super loud, if you rest your ear on his abdomen, the noises are powerful and never ending.
j.ohann: his belly is extremely audible and whiny when hungry. it knows what it wants, and it wants it now. given his upbringing in the past, in the presence of food, he will devour as much as he physically can. his brain enters survival mode, like he was in for much of his childhood. who knows the next time he’ll get a meal? his brain and stomach don’t know that. often, he ends up overeating, with a rotund tummy to show for it. on his slender yet curvy frame, the bloat is very obvious. his digestion is noisy and very glorpy, and he tries to stifle his belches, but they push themselves out of his gullet with force. his burps are unexpected and uncharacteristic from a guy like him. j.ohann whines a lot when he’s stuffed, begging for a tummy massage.. poor thing.
d.ante: he has a robust appetite, rivalling n.oé’s. you know that one panel of v.ani and him at the hotel, and d.ante has literally all the food and wine on his side? yeah. when he’s hungry, it sounds like there’s a beast roaring from inside a roomy cave. his extremely loud hunger growls are persistent, and he covers his hangry belly, as if that would do anything to dampen the noise. d.ante grew up for most of his childhood life with j.ohann, so they both share the same habit, and d.ante is able to eat a lot more than j.ohann. at first, d.ante knows what manners are, but when he’s bordering on a food coma, all manners go out the window, and he’s unceremoniously belching, patting his stomach, and undoing his belt. his tummy makes a ton of noise during digestion….whoever is near him can get easily distracted by it. it’s so noisy that one may wonder if he’s somehow still hungry!
