Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
Soooo~ It’s my very first attempt to do smth for MerMay, I hope I did well XD Decided to go with Arcana mermaid Asra AU (I’ve updated this a little bit, so I deleted the prev version sorry~)
Amazing *o*
Happy New Year everyone! This year was really hard for me and I believe for many of us, but I’m hoping for the best in 2019!!
Get yourselves with cozy blanckets and a cup of smth hot :3
Phew! That was sure a long night XD
Can’t wait for the next chapters~
The hugging scene from Asra’s route got me right through the heart~
Σ>―(〃°ω°〃)♡→
Howl’s bird form Asra (since this boy is based on him :D)
I did warn you that you are more important that even the sun for him. That is Asra for you.
And Julian..... well, large story. You might learn more on Asra's route about it.
But the boys got their charm. (Julian and Muriel are still my fav)
Ok you know what, that’s sweet XD
Platonic or romantic, that’s sweet af
But then you have Julian…
Can i just call you ‘crushing on Asra and denying it for me’? That seems a suitable name XD

Likes to have a cup of Sweet Sleep tea, especially after a stressful and long day. Says it to help him relax but you know it’s not - he’s terrible at sleeping when it’s been like that.
His voice is softer than normal when talking to you during this time. Which is something you’ve grown to love because it makes you relax more than your normal routine.
Loves to give you back and shoulder rubs to make you more relaxed than is physically and mentally possible. Tries to slip in a few touches in places he knows will help more.
Finished his massages with fingers stroking through your hair. Both temple and cheek kisses linger for a second with soft lulling hums.
Lip kisses that linger for a few seconds longer than normal as your chuckles sound out. With warm arms encasing you in a loving embrace, fingers drawing patterns on bare skin.
Loses himself in conversation with you, talking about both your days and what the next one holds for you both.
Wraps the blanket around you a little more than you already are. He doesn't want you becoming cold or sick. Not that he or Julian wouldn’t be able to help cure you but he’d much rather you not get sick in the first place.
Smiles as his familiar, Faust, flicks her tongue out in your direction, a small bop on your heads as her way of saying “goodnight”.
A soft smile appears on his face as wraps an arm around you. Closing his eye with a soft last hum. His familiar curling up at the bottom of you both. “Good night, Faust".
Rests your head under his chin as he pulls you closer. Savouring the feeling of your body fitting against his. Despite what others say about him, he's happy just cuddling you.
Waits until he knows you’ve fallen asleep before he allows himself to give in to his own tiredness. Would stay awake all night if his body would let him.
Dreams are filled with all the plans and hopes he has regarding you two and your future together. Some are downright cheesy. While others would rot your soul, in a good way.
Isn’t much of a mover in his sleep. Does twitch occasionally while he talks/mummers.
Says he’s a soft snorer but you disagree. Poor Faust has slithered away to a quiet area just to get some rest.
Asra with bed hair is the most adorable thing you’ve ever seen, even though you do tease him about it whenever you get a moment to.
Could stay in bed all day if he was allowed to. He just wants to stay in your company with no care in the world.
Always wishes for the day to hurry up so he can fall asleep with you again.
"In the end .... you choose them .... not me."

Brooo, every time I play other route, grgrgrgr the pain the painnn!!!! 😭😭😭 ma babyyy!!!
Sure, bud, ok.
THE HOLE.
THE HOLE.
Make him fucking cry
yas bully the devil!!! slay!
THANK YOU GOD
So we all know Julian and Asra are canon and that it didn’t work out because they wanted different things at the time, and not because it was abusive (as confirmed by the devs). Asra was heartbroken and focused on his pain over losing MC. Julian was crumbling under the weight of responsibility, trying to cure the plague, and desperately wanting to be loved. Not a great place to start a relationship for either.
But once upright ending happens and things start to look bright again, maybe there’s a chance to start over. Asra and Julian grew as people, and now MC is there, changing the dynamic.
It starts slowly. MC and Asra are back from another trip, and Julian is working at the palace with Nadia, Aisha, and Salim. They all meet for dinner and drinks at Nadia’s. Asra and his parents sneak out to the library to geek out over new alchemical designs, and Julian entertains MC with new spells he has learnt. His newly found love for magic is endearing.
Some time later he drops by the shop to borrow a book on magic. He is eager to learn, seeing a great potential in magic as a tool to help people.
It becomes his habit to sit in the kitchenette above magic store and read grimoires in the evenings.
Asra and MC are happy together, and they enjoy Julian’s company. One day Asra catches himself thinking how much Julian has changed and how things *could’ve been* different had they met now.
MC, however, has adored Julian for a long time. They have no problem seeing the best in him, and they often compliment his achievements, his looks, and his ideas. Obviously, it makes Julian’s heart flutter and his cheeks blush, but he’s not gonna admit *anything*!
Julian is embarrassed but he loves the praise. He’s happy being around the other two, happy that Asra and him are good again, and he’s happy spending time with MC. When he falls asleep in his palace room, he often fantasies about either of them. And if he’s feeling particularly rowdy, both of them at the same time.
Julian has everything sorted now: he has friends, an occupation that makes him proud, his sister and Mazelinka are taken care of, but with all that he has no more excuses to avoid the topic of his loneliness. His romantic ass craves night boat rides under the full moon, dancing till dawn, and belonging to somebody.
One night after Julian has left their shop Asra and MC start talking about him. Asra jokes that they should buy a bigger bed and just let him stay next time. MC asks if Asra would like to start seeing Julian again, and Asra blushes. Yes, in fact he probably would. He loves MC, and he is starting to fall for Julian as well. MC smiles triumphantly. They’ve known for some time now. They’ve felt it in both their hearts, a growing spark for the doctor. They would love to give their friendship a romantic twist.
So the next time Julian is there to read, the bed is made for three. MC asks if he would like to stay over, and knowing there is no spare room, Julian laughs that he couldn’t comfortably sleep on the kitchen table. When told he would be sleeping in bed with them, Julian melts. He blushes and is unable to find a good comeback or even words, and just nods, biting his lip, fighting sudden wave of anxiety.
As they go to bed that night, Julian is in the middle, surrounded by love and warmth. The two magicians hug him tightly. There are sweet kisses, wandering hands, and a lot of tenderness. It doesn’t go anywhere naughty that night. That night is all about sharing love for each other. Julian breaks down and cries at some point. He’s felt lonely for a long time, starving for affection, and now he’s having trouble handling it. He eventually falls asleep, holding hands with both of them for dear life.
The next morning MC and Asra make sure to be there when Julian wakes up. They don’t want him to think it was just a dream. There’s a lot of sweet talk, laughter, and flirting going back and forth. Eventually they make breakfast together and Julian leaves for the palace, humming under his breath. All three of them can’t stop smiling throughout the day.
FUCK my heart

THEY ARE MENT TO BE
IT'S FUCKING DESTINY
Ok Muriel last chapter was so good, Mc and mountain man are so cute, and the atmosphere was so peaceful.
FUCK YES
Early concept designs of Julian drawn by the original creators of The Arcana. His formidable outfit was meant for stealth, which worked in form, but not really in practice!
YES PLEASE also make oppsite asra a tsundere please XD

definitely the best boy in the novel (for me ofc), I love him <3
I know I haven't been posting and I'll work on it BUT! I just thought of something that's absolutely braking my heart and ya'll are gonna suffer with me!
Ya'll know how asra and the apprentice fight before the apprentice dies? So Imagine asra having enough of the apprentice not agreeing to run away so he storms out after taking his bag and Faust, and the apprentice is just still filled with anger then the shock and sadness settle in when they realise that asra really did leave and he most likely isn't coming back, so they crumble to the floor while leaning on a wall as they start to have a brake down
I'M ABOUT TO FUCKING SOB OVER HERE 😭😭😭
this came to me while listening to this slowed version of cry by cigarettes after sex
Can I request Julian and Asra being in a qpr (queer platonic relationship) with a gn reader?
《☆》《☆》《☆》《☆》
°•A/n: soo idk if I did good with this request, it was a bit tricky tbh but I hope it's okay with how it turned out cos I'm not so sure myself, pls tell me ur thoughts on this anon!, I tried my best with this :') hope you enjoy love ~♡
◇Warning◇: nothing(?)
°•Reader: gn
You, Asra and Julian have been together for a while now and by the time Julian joined the qpr, you and Asra got married platonicly and sooner or later a ring will be on Julian's hand aswell- he doesn't have a choice when you and Asra aren't teasing Julian into the next dimension, ya'll are doing one of three things
1- napping/cuddling, if you need the restroom then hold it in cos Asra ain't letting you or Julian, he has an iron grip around you two
2- going through the market to look for whatever catches your eye, and Julian is looking for more leeches ofc (you and Asra set a rule in the shop, it's "no leeches in the bedroom")
3- going out through the woods or travelling for a short while to not only relax a bit but also find new things to try and experience
If you enjoy any form of art then be aware that you already have 2 extremely supportive fans, enjoy reading? Well, expect 2 new books every week, one from daddy long legs Julian and one from magic boy Asra and Faust, speaking of familiars, Faust and malak get along fine if food isn't involved, they always fight on who gets fed first, malak loves the look on Julian's face when Faust squeezes him :)
Platonic kisses are very very frequent around the shop, Asra loves affection, Julian is touch starved asf and you see how that's already good? Then add you to the mix? Oh boy it's just -chef's kiss- as stated above, you and Asra enjoy teasing Julian so much- poor man can't cuddle with you two without if face turning so red it puts his hair colour to shame lmao
Julian extremely enjoys hand kisses- his inner hopeless romantic is melting at the thought, ofc he enjoys any kisses from you and Asra but hand kisses are in his top 5. Asra on the other hand loves loves loves neck kisses, it makes him feel all warm and soft but it's also a way to get out their adorable laughts and giggles since his neck is sensitive too
You guys are grate together and always look out for one another, making some people look in jealousy or confusion at how the relationship works but at the end of the day, you three don't care what people have to say about it as long as you guys are happy and comfortable, it doesn't matter ♡
Actual real live footage of the battle between Asra, Juilliard and Muriel.
Let me just dump more Arcana art doodles here😋
Alyx didn’t expect Asra to do that. She thought he’d just hold her hand.
Fun fact: Alyx plays the violin and would probably get into fiddle battles with Julian.
When Asra is away and Alyx misses him, she’ll steal his shirts and scarves to wear. She always washes them before he gets him but pretty sure he knows. 🤫
Hopped on the wedding charm outfits train late! Oops
Masquerade night! What more to say?
I plan to give out more fun facts about Alyx and other information soon.

"Sometimes in my life I feel like a sorceress that can't totally control all their power and it's killing me"
Ok, I don't know how many will care about this, but I kinda wanted to write some things down about my apprentice so here we go ✨
(sorry for any mistakes in advance, English is not my first language ✊🏻💫)
20 years old
she/her, born female
black hair
blue eyes, turn violet when she uses/controls magic, before she is able to fully control her magic abilities her eyes turn black which pretty much shows that she's almost killing herself if Asra wouldn't stop her
she is the daughter of a really powerful sorceress and a quite skilled magician which worked in the palace, putting her into the position of becoming equally strong as them, at least that's what she's telling herself
her parents had to leave Vesuvia one day, leaving her behind in the palace
loves elegant clothing but also wears baggy clothes when she is working or travels with Asra
before her death, she sometimes helped Julian in the palace while he was working on finding a cure to the plague
she knows about the little adventure™ that Julian and Asra had :')
she never told Asra, neither Julian
that was not her business
she pretty much didn't want to know if she was honest with herself
Asra and her got into a romantic relationship shortly after that. Afterwards Asra revived her and she lost her memories they eventually grew closer again but since Audelia and Julian started to see each other more often Asra decided to keep his feelings to himself in order for Audelia to be happy
speaking of Julian, the reason they get to see each other more often is because Audelia sometimes works in the tavern during night time, which he frequently visits
this way she is able to raise a bit a more money to afford things, even though it's quite stressful at times handling working in Asras shop during the day and in the tavern during the night
she gets along with Muriel quite well
Audelia is really close friends with Portia, before and after the young apprentice died, this didn't change, they pretty much got their relationship back to where it was
Portia got to know Audelia from the time where she was quite a known sorceress at the palace
Nadia (and formerly sometimes Lucio, but let's be honest only because Nadia said so) would rely on Audelias powers and knowledge to keep Vesuvia safe whenever there was an attack or a danger approaching, even though she wasn't able to fully control it and put her life at risk with this
she stayed and lived in the palace, after her parents were gone, but from time to time she would stay at Asras house until she moved in with him
after her memories vanished, Nadia never asked Audelia for help again, neither did she even try to contact her, since she was afraid that Audelia would eventually truly kill herself by being unable to control her magic even more than before
Audelia has no clue how she's ever able to learn how to control her magic powers and become a powerful sorceress like her mother was
the reason she didn't want to leave Vesuvia with Asra when the plague broke out was because she still hoped her parents would return one day and Audelia was afraid she wouldn't be there when the time would come
only a few people know about her sword fight abilities (Asra, Julian, Nadia)
one day, when the palace is under attack (fighting for who is ruling Vesuvia, u know) Nadia will ask Audelia to fight, which she will but at first only with her sword and a limited amount of magic
on that day she will get her memories back
she will also be able to wield her powers
but it's a long and hurtful way until then
Made another one for Asra 🔮💜💫
Here's an attempt for an aesthetic for my Arcana apprentice 💜🔮✨
