Warnings: Major Character Death // uhhhh inspired by this post regarding the wild ch7 theory with @bluelightning16
(He wonders, vaguely, if this is how it feels to watch a star die.)
Malleus does not go quickly, nor without a fight. He is as raw in his effervescent rage, stunning in his vicious movements as Silver is pitiful in his wretched, but yet, inevitable betrayal. If he could allow himself the pleasure of the moment, he might have taken the time to console the other fae (more monster than man / more dragon than fae, isn't he, Silver?) who once bore the title of Prince, who seemed almost to be staring up in accusatory judgement with every magic-laden twist of his fingers and glistening emerald hum flames directed at this lowly individual.
(Was there still any humanity left in Silver now to mourn not only the death of himself but of another long gone and who now stood before him as recognizable as a ghost?)
It is easier this way, and he wonders if Malleus understands that Silver's doing him a blessing, a favor on behalf of his dead father and mother now silenced and stilled in blissful dreams. He’s offering him a quick death and the last glimpse of his own knight fulfilling his destiny.
(Not all who have crossed his path and still remain yet to come have be so lucky.)
There is something so awe-inspiring about the whole morbidly dreary event, watching the life bleed itself out from once vividly bright eyes that seem to be reflecting the dim lighting all the brighter with each second that ticks away against his soul. He feels as if he’s witnessing the death of something greater, as if a part of the universe is mourning the loss of what a great prince could have been, taken away by Silver's very fingertips that now rest gracefully in a familial manner across a scaled throat.
(Did you ever wonder what it would feel like, Malleus-sama? To burn in your own inheritance?)
Silver can feel every pulsing breath that flutters underneath his palm like the wings of a hummingbird, the faint, whistling death knells that make Malleus sing like one. It is most odd then, when he lifts his trembling fingers from Malleus and takes a shuddering step back to fall on his knees besides the still forms of Lilia and Sebek that he takes another glance at the body below him and is struck with the startling clarity of how small and powerless it appears. It is strange how he used to think that it was once something so great and fearsome.
(He raises his hands to touch at his own cheeks, the Queen's cold fingers cupping them and whispering that he has done well; there is wetness there, as if the very stars themselves have laid diamond dust upon his skin.)

Hi i saw your silver harem drawing and i am wondering how you view the malleus x silver ship romantically specifically i myself am i a big shipper of the two and am very curious on other people point of view
I would sell my soul for them. :)
They're just... so good together? There's an unprecedented amount of untapped potential between them—romantically or otherwise—and I just want it all. I especially love the whole Maleficent x Sleeping Beauty and human x fae dynamics they have going on... Having characters who come from such separate, distinct worlds learn to care for each other despite their seemingly impossible differences—especially when there's a fated enemies ordeal to contend with—just makes me so soft, ahhh. Quite frankly, I can and will scream about them for days.
Also, art-wise, they just blend together so well...? With Malleus' darker design and Silver's ethereal looks, it's really fun to play around with the contrasts in their character designs! I would honestly love to draw them more, if not for Malleus' awful, awful horns (I can never get them right TT).
(Sorry for the late reply, by the way—after procrastinating on it for months, courtesy of school, I'm finally working on clearing my inbox. Be on the lookout for more MalleSil content to come...!)
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? :’)

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… ^^;

“Close your eyes for a sec, okay? I’m just going to have a quick chat with your mother~”
More Devil Town AU! Lilia + Silver + angst is officially my crack now. Gotta love that overprotective, slightly evil father, right?
