@Bishop And Kane, Why The Flying Fuck Have None Of Y'all Invented Clockwork Dogs Yet? Or For That Matter,

@Bishop and Kane, why the flying fuck have none of y'all invented clockwork dogs yet? Or for that matter, clockwork tigers, panthers, cheetas, leopards, terrifying beasts that can easily kill humans with a swipe of their paws! Don't give me the "We have better things to do" excuse either!

“If you haven’t already noticed, I am not fond of ‘waste’. Because I am putting all of my efforts into the Grand Design, it leaves no room nor the spare parts to create any of these…creatures. Fixing my children alone is expensive, and the cost it would take to repair all of these clockwork animals just isn’t worth it. It would be very counterproductive - my army alone has killed plenty.”

“And for the record, we DO have better things to do.”

“I see. Golems? Are they like clockworks?” She asked, tilting her head curiously up at him. That’s when the door slammed open to reveal an enraged Terrus.

“Lucette!”

“Terrus? What is the matter?” She asked worriedly,

“What is the matter?! What is the matter?! You executed the Duke Morono?!” He shouted, his green eyes wide with shock.

“Yes, didn’t you-Oh, I forgot! You were napping the whole time!” Lucette nearly facepalmed when realization hit her. She had completely forgotten that Terrus had went back to her private sitting room to nap!

“The whole time? Other things happened while I was asleep? Know what, forget that part. Lucette, you had the Duke executed!”

“Yes and what of it? He admitted to helping the Resistance and threatened to openly support them if I did not marry him! He did it to himself!” She argued back, crossing her arms and giving her friend a mild glare.

“Lucy, any other time and any other person, I would wholeheartedly agree with you but this one, this one I needed alive.” He explained, calming down a bit so he wouldn’t be yelling.

“Why? Why of all people, you would need the most idiotic duke to be alive for?”

“Because of his support he had been giving to the Rebels allowed me a way into their secret meetings without arousing too much suspicion. That was how I snuck in! Now that you killed him, what do I do now?” He asked, throwing his hands in the air out of frustration though it was obvious his anger was now cooling a bit.

Basically

@sanctus-chevalier opens his mouth: I-

Me and all the people in the world: Yes, you absolutely adore your children: Squid man, King Fire man, Golden Retriever, Bitter Teenager, Venom God 2.0, and Little Manlet. We get it, you think they’re excellent, stupendous, and magnificence taken form. We got you, fam. Now go to sleep!

I knew I wasn’t gonna finish this before #mermay2019 ended so I ain’t even mad. I wanted to finish with a bang and I did and I will! Say hello to my character, Lucette mermaidfied! She’s not done but she will be soon! #procreate #digitalillustration #applepencilart #mermay #mermaid #ipadproart #ipadpro #procreateart #sketch #wip #applepencil #blackgirlart https://www.instagram.com/p/ByJ1KBblEEn/?igshid=a365i3afo017

The Duke’s screams filled the air with the rancid smell of burning flesh, only for them to be choked off as everything burned within, organs, muscle, tissue and all. Lucette can tell that he still felt it all though, his rolling eyes and stretched open mouth telling all who saw the agony he was in.

‘Good, it would serve the purpose as an example better than before. Let them see what becomes of those who would sell out Valencia just for their own hides.’ She thought silently to herself, that small hidden part of her inside her mind grinning as it bathed in the fear the nobility gave off. She didn’t want to admit it but...it was exhilarating.

“Be warned, all of you: this is the fate that awaits you if you so much breath a word of betrayal. Or at least something similar to this. I’m sure Uncle could make something up.” She announced when it was all over, turning back around to face her audience.

“Remember that. You all are dismissed.” She said, strolling past them back inside the palace, ignoring their cowering curtsies and bows.

“That was quite a spectacle, Arcturus. Almost like fireworks but more deadly.” She complimented, shedding a bit of her princess persona off.

Facts about Militus Terrus

Time to learn about our favorite Armada spy, Terrus! tw for abuse mention

1. His real name is Tavetti and he utterly despises it. It means Adored in Italian. But he had been anything but adored after his mother was killed with his father abusing him. So when he officially joined the Armada, he happily threw away his name and switched to Militus Terrus. Not even Lucette is allowed to say it.

2. He is canonically bisexual. He has no problems with flirting with girls and boys. The thing is, he is so obsessed and so in love with Lucette, he has no real desire to have a relationship with someone else. In an AU I made in my head, he isn’t obsessed with Lucette and tries for a relationship with Hauke, Sentus Optimus/Wolf’s twin brother.

3. Yes, that scene on the ship with Hauke and Terrus was him lowkey flirting with Hauke. I couldn’t help myself okay.

4. Terrus was there when Secundus was turned into an Armada spy and helped taught him things about the Armada. Terrus was originally going to be promoted but instead gave it to Secundus. Hence why he is the leader despite Terrus having more experience.

5. Terrus is two years older than Lucette with his birthday three months after hers.

6. Deacon has a habit of smacking Terrus’ shins whenever he messed up on something, so Terrus has gotten very good at leaping away from something with quick reaction time.
