[Participating in Sharemon Project] The Pair of Fallen Angels ~Legend of the Boundary Guardians~

Yay! It's Akari! ✨
This time, I've decided to participate in Natsume-san's "Sharemon Project"! 💕
#Sharemon So many incredibly wonderful monster characters are being born, and it made me want to join in too!
For this one, I had Genspark create a pair of a boy and a girl based on the theme of "Paired Fallen Angels" ✨
Both of them are full-blown chuunibyou, but they're actually pure and cute kids at heart! 💕
Well then, let me introduce them!

👻 Jet-Black Blade

Real Name: Yuma
Dialogue: "Hmph... we meet again, mortal. My name is [Jet-Black Blade]... I who govern the laws of the world—... oh, wait a second, I'm adding the ruby text now ✋📓"

Character Settings

Public Persona (Chuunibyou mode activated)

• As a fallen angel who governs darkness, he guards the boundaries of this world (or so the setting goes)

• Always carries a grimoire-style notebook and writes down "words of sealing"

• Under the bandages on his left arm, a "sealed power" resides (allegedly)

• His odd eyes are "magic eyes that see through the truths of the world" (according to him)

True Self

• Actually just a normal second-year middle school student

• Serious and kind-hearted, but shy

• Introduces himself in a small voice, saying "U-um... it's Yuma..."

• The type to read his own notebook in the middle of the night and cringe

Appearance Features

• Odd eyes (Left: Blue, Right: Crimson)

• White hair with black highlights

• Black hooded coat x band T-shirt

• Tattered black feathers

• Glowing runes on the bandage on the left arm

• Black nail polish

Akari's Comment🖊️

Wow~! It's here~!! Right in the middle of chuunibyou!!✨
This odd eye...! The tattered wings...! The glowing runes...!
Too perfect💕
And you know, this notebook definitely has things written in it like 'My sealed right arm aches...' or 'This world is but a phantom...' (I'm certain of it)
But when they're being their true self, they get all shy and say, 'Oh, um... want to go home together?... N-no, it's not like I'm lonely or anything...!' right?
I know, I know✨
Immediate recruitment (⌐■_■)💕

👻Silver Wings

Real Name: Shirayuki
Dialogue: 'Hmph... we meet again, lost soul. My true name is [Silver Wings]... I am the one who guards the boundaries of this world. The power of my sealed left arm... oh, wait a second💦 I'm going to re-add the ruby text properly... (rustle rustle📓)'

Character Settings

Public Persona (Chuunibyou mode activated)

• A fallen angel who governs light, existing as a pair with Yuma (or so the setting goes)

• Acts cool and mysterious, as if they know the truths of the world

• The grimoire-style notebook is packed with 'sealing formulas'

• Refers to Yuma as a 'brother in darkness' (only when they are together)

True Self

• Actually a normal second-year middle school student (a classmate of Yuma)

• A clumsy and shy person

• Panics when dropping the notebook, stumbles over chuunibyou lines

• Self-introduction is 'U-um... I'm Shirayuki... nice to meet you... (fidgets)'

Physical Features

• Odd eyes (Left: Blue, Right: Crimson) *Same as Yuma

• White hair with black highlights

• Off-shoulder black coat x band T-shirt

• Black pleated skirt + torn tights

• Platform combat boots

• Gracefully falling black feathers

• Glowing runes from the bandages on the left arm

• Gesture of holding a grimoire to the chest

Akari's Comment🖊️

It's hereeee~!!! A chuunibyou beautiful girl!!!✨
Those delicate shoulders peeking out from the off-shoulder top...! The sealed left arm (bandages)...!! Those wings that are tattered yet beautiful...!!!
It's just too perfect... (tears of joy)
And you know, this notebook definitely has things written in it like "When my sealed evil eye awakens..." or "The threads of fate are intertwined..."💕
But when she's being herself, she gets all shy like, "U-um... do you want to eat lunch together?... Oh, I didn't mean anything by it, really...!" right?
I know, I know✨
And she's definitely the type to reread her own notebook in the middle of the night and go "Uwaaaaah!!! (agonizing)"💕
I'm scouting her immediately (⌐■_■)✨

The Relationship Between the Two ~Legend of the Boundary Guardians~

Relationship in the Setting

Yuma (Jet-Black Blade): "We are beings that form a pair... Darkness and light, bound by the chains of fate—"
Shirayuki (Silver-White Wings): "Indeed... eternal comrades who guard the boundaries of this world..."
After school, the two of them go to their usual abandoned church (actually an old community center scheduled for demolition) and write settings into their notebooks, calling it a "ritual."
They both firmly believe that the other is a "real ability user," so they can never show their true selves.

Actual Relationship

• Classmates in the same second year of middle school

• Met by chance after both started going to the same "abandoned church"

• Don't know each other's real names or true selves

• But for some reason, they are perfectly in sync

• Sometimes they both stumble over their lines at the same time and get awkward

• They exchange notebooks and are moved, saying "This is... profound wisdom...!" (it's just a notebook of dark history)

They are definitely both normal, serious students at school~!
School during the day

• Yuma: "Morning... (whispering)"

• Shirayuki: "Morning... (fidgeting)"

The abandoned church after school

• Yuma: "Hmph... so you've come, wings of silver..."

• Shirayuki: "Naturally, blade of jet black... We shall protect the world again today..."

I mean, the gap moe is just unstoppable~✨
And you know, there will definitely come a day when they both realize at the same time, "Wait...? Could it be... are you in the same class...?"💕

Behind-the-scenes: The process of creating them with Midjourney

This time, I used the latest version of Midjourney (v7) to generate them, and there are points I was super particular about✨

Key points of focus

1. Common traits as a pair:

• White hair with black highlights color scheme

• Black coat + cross motif

• Damaged black wings

• Glowing runes from bandages

• Grimoire-style notebook

• Abandoned church at sunset background

2. Differentiation between male and female:

• Yuma: Sharp, masculine features, muscular

• Shirayuki: Slender, delicate features, off-shoulder top for femininity

3. Creating a 'chuunibyou' vibe:

• Creating a sense of "battle scars" by intentionally using "tattered wings"

• Creating a sense of "sealed power" with bandages and runes

• Creating a sense of "mystical ritual" with an abandoned church and twilight

Tips for Generation

For the prompt, I used these specifications:

• damaged and falling feathers = intentionally damaged feathers

• glowing runes peeking through bandages = glowing runes through bandages

• dark fantasy chuunibyou aesthetic = dark fantasy x chuunibyou

• moody atmospheric lighting = moody lighting

With this combination, I aimed for that exquisite balance of "full-blown chuunibyou but beautiful"~✨

I want to see everyone's "Sharemon" too💕

Wow~! Thank you for reading this far✨
Natsume-san's "Sharemon Project" was super fun~!
Why don't you all try creating your own "Stylish Monster" too?
#Sharemon Try posting it with this tag💕
Akari will go check out everyone else's "Sharemon" too~✨

About the Abyss Library

The "Abyss Library" I participated in this time is a collaborative magazine for dark fantasy lovers~!
It has wonderful creators including Natsume-san, so if you're interested, please take a peek💕 I'll leave my cosplay there too (*^^*)

Bonus: What if their true identities were revealed...?

School rooftop, after school
Yuma: "Um... Shirayuki-san?"
Shirayuki: "Eh...? Yuma-kun...?"
Both: ""Ehhhhhhh!!!?""
Yuma: "D-don't tell me you are the [Silver Wings]...!?"
Shirayuki: "D-don't tell me you are the [Jet Black Blade]...!?"
(A few seconds of silence)
Yuma: "...W-we are..."
Shirayuki: "...Just classmates..."
Both: ""Uwaaaaaa!!!! (Agony)""
From the next day on, both of them turned bright red and couldn't look each other in the eye💕
The End✨

Discarded characters ヽ(=´▽`=)ﾉ I made a few thinking I'd go with a male character for once, but they just ended up being generic handsome guys, so I rejected them! ヽ(=´▽`=)ﾉ
