some oc stuff <3

a silly little guy. a whimsical fella.

Random VKR facts both writing-wise and character-wise

Zero is named Zero because his mother originally intended to name him Rei but kept memorizing it as Zero. Eventually, she wrote it down on his birth certificate without hiragana or anything, and it stuck.

Yuki is definitely okay with the fact Kaien basically boxed her in to be nothing but a teacher and taking care of her younger brothers and definitely OK with the fact she realizes she has no ambitions beyond possibly attending college or what job she’d wanted to do yes siree.

In part 2 and the years before part 2, Ichiru keeps wanting to play chess with Kanane but because he’s disgusted by him and because symbolic reasons, Kaname refuses until Ichiru traps him into doing it

Zero's hair in Part 2 is meant to be agrown-out buzzcut because well. He went through some really shit times between part 1 and 2 on account of witnessing Kaien die to Ichiru and being accused of murder and

Emi is a professional hater of Kaname. She has some reasons to dislike him, but in general, she’s just a professional hater

Kaname has dimples because I commissioned an artist to draw him, and they gave him dimples, so he has them.

Kaname is the hardest character to draw for me in the fact he’s based on a real person who’s kinda hard to draw.

I based Zero's look (MAINLY PART 2) off Dante DMC because I heard from tv tropes that DMC may have inspired Vampire Knight. Funny enough VK also helped me get into DMC

Yuki's skin is darker cuz I made her hair black. Then I went "oh if she were tan it'd look nice-oh shes half-Indian now"

I shipped Aido x Yuki the whole time

The Night Class is primarily European and uses Japanese pseudonyms, the same with Kaien

P1 Zero listened to music on Sony MDR7506s, and it’s either because they’re Kaien’s or because he’s a purist hipster. He claims it is the second, but it’s the first.

I have entire ass fan casts for hypothetical movies and OVAs and stuff you don’t know how long I have been writing this

Kaname really likes Zero's hair and how white it is. Seriously, whenever I write post-series them, it’s “Kaname gripping that white hair he'd realized he'd wanted to touch a while.” You get crumbs. CRUMBS

Emi just came out of nowhere. I didn’t even intend to create her. She just came up and you more what that fits her. Originally she was the “shy to badass” archetype but then after I inspired her off Lady (DMC) she slowly became more and more unhinged until I decided I wanted a female character who was just plain crazy and not pitied or sexualized or glorified for it

Kaname's real name (The one he forgor for a few centuries) is Cain I. No relation to actual biblical Cain, it's just his mom didn't want a child but had to have one (1100s royalty), so she named her son after the biblical murderer. Kaname does not care lol

Emi and Zero I’d say are the easiest to draw

Emi has smile lines.
