*chu*

So I drew this gay thing.. I'm pretty excited about it.

It's not finished - obviously..  But this is the beginning of something I think I'm going to like. xD

Which makes me happysoul.

That's gay.



Here's the same back-story blurb I posted along with my deviantart post, for those who don't go on deviantart:

This is Cal (25) [left] and Kano (18) [right].

Kano is the second heir to the throne of Atlantis (second oldest of three heirs) and Cal is his bodyguard.  At first, Kano is really against the idea of having a personal guard follow him around wherever he goes. (Realistically, that would really kind of suck). It isn’t long after they meet that Kano realizes Cal is about as cold as they come - a complete professional with little personality, few hobbies aside from paperwork and reading, and never expresses his feelings or opinions. This both aggravates and intrigues Kano so much that he becomes obsessed with breaking Cal "out of his shell" and in the process, falls in love with the mysterious soulless servant.

I'm actually really excited about this pair, they've proven to be a nice break from the main characters dramas.

A little more about them:

Kano is 18, but he shot up fast when he was about 16 and has been good at passing as a 20+ year old since. His favorite passtimes are drawing seamonsters, reading to his little brother Levin, playing in the garden with his little sister Mae, reading about the Surface World in history books, acting like a "non-royal", clubbing, drinking, flirting...

Cal is 25-ish. All Cal has let Kano know about himself is that he doesnt have any family - he's from The Homeplanet, he's been to The Surface and that he'll do anything for Kano's wellbeing. Some of Cal's favorite passtimes (if you can call them such) are: following orders, serving and honoring The Crown, reading classic novels alone on his off-hours and doing what he can to protect the royal family - Kano in particular. (I think secretly he likes picking up Mae too). It's hard to tell - Cal doesn't show "like" or "dislike" he just "does" or "doesn't".

Things to note about this image that you have to be me or my co-writer to catch:

- Atlantian ear-fins are usually laying somewhat flat - only with either heightened instinctual senses or heightened arousal do the fins on the sides of their heads stick up and fan out.
- Kano wears coin-like beads in his hair like his father (the King) Felix who was a off-branch main character from G2.
- Cal is an Alpha male, in Atlantian culture Alphas are peppered throughout the male population - they are typically more muscular and more agressive and tend to have posessive tendancies over whoever they fancy. When two Alphas end up posessive over the same individual it can end in death - first a poisonous bite that paralizes the opposer, then swift death by whatever means the winning Alpha male chooses. The individual who has been won over is then bitten and injected with a chemical that screams to all other Alphas that "this bitch is already taken - so back off".
- Kano has red hair (like his mom) and Cal's is blackish-blue.
- Atlantians arent completely covered in scales, just on some of the areas of rougher skin, kind of like were humans would have thicker body hair. (Atlantians do not have body hair except for eyebrows and head hair.)


Anyway, that's enough fangirling for one night... I need to sleep (but it's fucking cold in my room so I'm stalling) xD I hope you like them. I'm going to finish this someday when I have the time to work on it again.. <3

Goodnight/morning
