Theo'd be a fan (phan?) of the Phantom of the Opera. I think he would feel a certain connection to any work that is sympathetic to an ugly, rejected, genius goth with social issues and a bad habit of violent outbursts. It's a guilty pleasure but he would sing the songs. In private. (So he thinks.)

Thank you... I love him and Hyden as a pair, they're both so different yet so alike (and their contrast in looks always amuses me).

This is normally where I make some snarky remark about how "so-and-so wouldn't care for that!" but Ambroys actually does like being bitten so I have nothing to do but nod safely.

He truly doesn't deserve it, but he is aware, if not hyper-aware to the point of over-estimating his prettiness. Hubris, truly.

Chocodile has long wanted me to make a ref of Ambroys from our completely inexplicable angel/devil AU... at last, I have done it. Ambroys is to humans what sparkledogs are to rottweilers. A sparkleman, if you will.
A reference sheet for a character drawn in a cartoon style. The character is an angel, of the bewinged human variety. He has golden-brown skin, blond hair, iridescent white wings and is absolutely covered in sparkles. A little chibi doodle shows him getting teased by a cigar-smoking devil (his bestie/worstie).

Ill health runs - ran - in the North line. Caring for an ailing mentor is a familiar, almost comforting ritual to Theo. He welcomes the opportunity Hyden presents to fall back into his old routines. It makes him feel useful. It makes him feel that maybe he can fix it this time.

There are rumors that some malady has stricken the Comte de Luxe. His luster has faded, his halo dimmed, and behind each movement there is a twinge of pain… or fear. Of course, he denies it all. He is fine, more than fine, perfect as always - simply feeling “a little drained.”

A Cure For Barbarity 💉 (1/5) A comic focusing on Alex and Theo's conflict: she's an anti-imperialist ex-soldier, he's arrogant mage nobility, she's no-nonsense, he's prone to nonsense, she hates Hyden, he adores the man beyond reason. Theo knows how to get under her skin. In more ways than one.

A Cure for Barbarity 💉 (3/6) Once he gets his claws in, Theo gets a "feel" for a body's state, partly like it's his own, partly like a toy he's playing with. This could be a useful skill for medicinal purposes, but when your heart is in this creep's hands... that's not very comforting.

A Cure for Barbarity 💉 (4/6) In times like these, it's handy to have a great white shark in your corner. Aka; Theo falls prey to a classic villain blunder: monologuing instead of doing what you need to do and getting gone. (Unrelated: I love to draw Theo's tiny li'l shoes.)

A Cure for Barbarity 💉 (5/6) Wherein Theo gets tossed about like a rag-doll, but continues to taunt his foes. Maybe Ridge should've punched him after all. It might have shut him up for a bit. Also: Theo reveals he uses ~*healing magic*~! It's not supposed to be used like this.

A Cure for Barbarity 💉 (6/6) No matter how much creepy viscera magic he can use, Theo knows that one man can't take on a whole company. He can still get a few back-biting remarks in though. An uneasy truce results. He should really go find a tissue for that nosebleed now.

He does take pride in his fashion sense and love of clothing! He's about 10-70 years out of date with current fashion for his time, but at least he doesn't chase trends...

Kind only to one another, but at least Jocosa would try to restrain Theo from any ass-kicking because there's only so many judges she can bribe and witnesses she can blackmail before people start talking.

Kwillow @kwillow.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
This isn't even their full power. Jocosa's fear of looking "gaudy" or "nouveau riche" limits her fashion moment potential, tragically (and Theo's, by proxy).

I enjoy the small detail of Theo sitting on a suitcase (to be more on Hyden's level, presumably) Theo is really not equipped to be someone's emotional coach ESPECIALLY when it comes to relationship troubles but by god he will try

Doodled @anderbloodeyes.bsky.social's comment. I like to imagine that Ander is always waiting just offscreen, ready to be a hater during any major emotional scenes.
Hyden pensive by the train window sighing over his ex, followed by Theo trying to comfort him, followed by Ander the tanuki in another adjacent seat/cabin cutting in to undermine the narrative Hyden is trying to spin. Irritated, Theo slams their cabin's privacy curtains closed to block him out.

Anon asks if Hyden was confused by Theo's devotion to his mom. Yes, and also 'weirded out', for lack of a better term. He doesn't get why you'd care so much about ANYONE, never mind someone whose only reason for being in your life was birthing you. He sees it as a lack of maturity on Theo's part.
Horrible fat rabbit furry man Hyden smokes a cigar and reads a book in an armchair while he squints at Theo in the background, who is dusting a fancy painted portrait of his mama while sniffling

Ooh that boy's in trouble now!! >:) Thank you for this piece -- I love what you did with the composition and their interaction (depicting their dynamic as a dangerous dance is inspired!) I love the sheer SCALE of Hyden in comparison with Ambroys and their expressions!!

Other cultures in universe WOULD find her wearing ermine fur uniquely offputting though, far more so than if she wore, say, leopard fur. Attitudes towards kinship with and respect for animals differs across people here (the Norths are just of the “animals are under the dominion of people” type)
010
Kwillow @kwillow.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
Oh it’s real! The culture she’s from doesn’t see anthro-ermines and regular ermines as kin. She’s a person, ermines are animals and thus beneath her; game for hunting like any other animal. The family’s symbol is an ermine (animal) so she and Theo wear the fur to evoke that.

OH he looks so HAUNTED I adore it... I love the 3D effect with him creeping through the frame!! The papercraft is so cool, being able to look at how everything layers adds such an appealing tactility. Thank you for making a craft of my guy! It'll bring me joy to see him on the fridge next to Hyden!

matching sporty winter fits for a wicked mother and her horrid son.
Drawing of two anthro characters. Both are dressed in late Victorian clothing. On the left is a tall, thin mature-looking ermine woman. She is dressed in a mid-length skirt, short-heeled boots with dozens of tiny silver buttons, and a short fitted coat lined with ermine fur and tails (not her own). On the right in a short, chubby rat man. He is wearing tall boots, riding breeches, leather gloves and a long coat, also trimmed with ermine fur. His red scarf is the only bit of color the two are wearing. The two look at each other out of the corners of their eyes, smiling at one another like neither is particularly practiced at it but with genuine fondness. The backdrop is a gray-blue circle dotted with snow.

I'm not familiar with this comic, but I'm amused that this is something I hear about re: Jo fairly often -- that she's like some cold, powerful mother character if she actually liked her kids. :P That twist on the trope is what I was aiming for!

Another layered paper magnet, this time of @kwillow.bsky.social 's Theo! Who wouldn't want a very judgemental rat man staring at you from the fridge for all eternity? 😌 ( #art #furry #anthro )
A layered paper magnet of Kwillow's OC Theo, a black and white rat man. He has big, bulging eyes and stares judgingly at the viewer, with a white gloved hand emerging out from behind the golden Baroque style frame.

Aaw thank you! I have developed a real fondness for her despite the fact that she is not an "active" part of the main story due to reasons of mortality.
