Malleus-sama? Where Did Your Costume Go?

“Malleus-sama? Where did your costume go…?”

“Go back to the dorms, Silver.”

(Basically, I can’t stop thinking about what would’ve happened if they dealt with the MagiCam monsters in a slightly different way…)

A piece I made for my brother’s birthday! Full disclosure, I’ve only seen one episode of the anime so I really just copied some images I got off of Google and somehow his muscles got nerfed along the way…

Sorry, One Piece fans… ^^;

Wow, this Endless Halloween Night event is really showing us the... less savory sides of Lilia’s parenting.  And while I do enjoy the insight into his character, showing that he’s not the perfect, omniscient father that a lot of the fandom portrays him as—myself included ^^;—it’s still somewhat unsettling to see.

Are we finally going to get a more serious glimpse into how his distance and lesser capacity to empathize (cough Silver’s first birthday SSR cough) have affected his son in Book Seven? I really hope so... It would be very interesting to explore what morals, emotions, and relationships on the whole, particularly familial ones, mean to the fae.  Do they place the same importance on blood ties that humans do?  (Judging from Sebek’s eagerness to denounce his mortal side, this might not be the case...)  What even is the meaning of such fleeting matters in the face of eternity?

Or perhaps his willingness to leave Silver alone is something that stems more from circumstance; after spending so long trapped in a never-ending cycle of war and death, leaving a child to navigate the world on their lonesome may simply feel like the norm.  After all, when was the last time they got to experience the warm comfort of a parent’s coddling embrace?

But, whatever the case, let’s take this seriously, twst...!  We don’t need any more “jokes” about something that can be genuinely concerning and hurtful—not that I’m referencing any situations in particular, of course—when we can have some scrumptious angst for Silver instead.

Besides, how else are we going to get a final, parting line from Lilia, whispering, “I’m sorry, Silver.  I never meant to fail you this way... my dear son...” as he looks upon his beautiful child one last time? :’)

Any mallesil fic recommendation?

Of course! :) Let me just preface this by saying that I have read literally everything in the Malleus/Silver tag in AO3—and have thoroughly enjoyed seeing what everyone comes up with!—but here are a few of my favorites (which, let's be real, is like a fourth of the fics posted because we're all so starved for content TT).

This one's in Spanish, but thanks to Google Translate, you too can enjoy the wonders of yandere Malleus...! Also, the author has started to translate some of their works into English, so you should definitely check those out, as well.

Unfortunately, most of their fics are only available to those with an AO3 account, so if you have one, I'd also recommend looking at Most Precious of Joys, Reflection, and The Perfect Puppy. Honestly, just everything they write, they're so good. ^^

Since I'm not sure if you're alright with NSFW works, here's a separate section for Mature/Explicit fics:

This fic is a part of a series, but here's the one I love the most. :)

Okay, so this one's actually a SebeSil fic, but since there are MalleSil undertones (cough voyeurism cough), it gets an honorary mention.

Hope you find these satisfactory...! If you ever want to scream about these with me or insult my taste (TT), feel free to message me or shoot another ask!!

“Please allow me to accompany you, Father… to the afterlife.”

(There are no actual spoilers, but since this was inspired by some, I’m just tagging it as such, just in case.)
