Monster lover: the AU

The mythos AU juste continue to scratch the monster fucker itch in my brain. I get you Luca, I get you.

In this AU, since Emilio was not born a monster, the rest of his family is human, but it also means he can't see his sister anymore :( he just watches from afar.

Meanwhile, she's searching for him, but it's hard for her to get far  with her condition. She still does stumble upon Marino while trying at some point.

+ a little bonus doodle of Gladiator AU Emilio for the artstylebend challenge, which ended up being just the style I had as a teen

 

Emo but make it 1500s

I really wanted to draw grown up Marino (Maffeo's little brother) and Cristina (Emilio's little sister). Also accidentally shipped them oops

Marino is pretty much bed bound due to having a fragile health, but he sometimes gets dragged to social event (because you gotta show off your sons if you want them to find a wife). Cristina has narcolepsy and it makes also attending these events a bit of a gamble.

Also Marina no jokes writes sad poetry and sends it to Cristina.

And then you passed out, and she hit her head ? / Mh / I'm sure she's not mad- / But her father is.

He can barely stand ! / And yet you like him. / It will never happen. / That's what I thought too when I was your age.

And that's pretty much how they met, I guess they literally fell in love (☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞

tfw you love a stubborn idiot

After way too long, here's Emilio in the Mafia AU. He's part of the same 'family' as Marsilio, but Marsilio is super suspicious of him trying to take over Vieri because of his father being known for wanting the Don title, so he never trusts him.

 Emilio on the other hand does not give a flying fuck about the whole mafia business and genuinely is in love with Marsilio, and every single one of his flirting attempt is read as some attempt to befriend him in order to manipulate him and falls flat.

 Of course this drives Emilio mad and at some point he totally is going to just explode at Marsilio, because a man can only try to stay subtle for a while before getting fed up with small touches and smiles, and Marsilio is absolutely going to be confused as hell.

 To be fair, if that kind of reception doesn't read to Marsilio as 'this guy is trying to get into my pants', I can understand how at some point Emilio would get annoyed.

And because we haven't seen her in a while, I wanted to also draw Cristina in the Mafia AU, despite her having yet to be properly introduced in canon.

 A little angel, totally not a scheming little lady ready for everything to get what she wants. Contrary to Emilio, Cristina is really into the family business, and securing her position as high in the hierarchy of the family as she can. 

 Of course like in the canon Cristina and Emilio are very close, despite having very different motivations in life. 

And while we're in Emilio/Marsilio centric AUs, here a doodle from back in may that I never managed to fit into a post. It's just a single Merm AU doodle but I still love it, so here it is.

Emilio is a manatee and Marsilio is a whale, which are actually both mammals and not fishes like traditional mermaids but sshhhhh shhhh
