Copiaether Madness

if i wrote a ghost murder mystery 80s fanfic would yall fuck with that

does it help if i tell u it has slow burn terzalphaomega and Copia/Mountain

Terzomega art I forgot to post on here..

Im seeing people share their reads on Papa V so far and I just wanna throw my hat into he ring?

So, onstage- he's been described as shyer then Copia and a little unsure, hes charasmatic and a bit flirty, he's implied that he's running on a lot of partial information, and he's having minor confrontations with the ghouls that he's backing down from regularly.

So, V comes across to me as someone who's much sharper and observant then Copia, who's trying to navigate managing a band of literal demons who he has not earned the respect of yet. I read him as nicer on the surface then a lot of the clergy, but very intentionally so. He strikes me as a more controlled person then Copia who's better at masking his frustrations.

I feel like V is also much more aware that the role of Papa is a figurehead with not much of authority, versus Copia who never really internalized that. V wants to be liked, but I don't feel like respect is as big of a deal to him as it is for Copia.

But-

I also get the feeling from the timing of the Lachryma video dropping after Copia starts trying to publicly humiliate him and the main repeated lyrics from the song being "im done crying over someone like you", that he's JUST as catty and passive aggressive as his brother deep down. I mean- he even "borrowed" (i.e. stole) the gold blazer and the idea for the wings from his dear brother. I can see him also having a similar temper, but with his anger running a lot colder than Copia's tantrums.

He also has some more monsterous and creature like traits compared to Copia, which even if just cosmetic or symbolic, still adds a subtext of menace to him.

So- altogether, I see V as someone who, on the surface is a very polite, nice, charasmatic person who might even come across as a people pleaser sometimes, but is a lot more perceptive, sharp, then he gives off. V wants to be liked and is a good person, but is much more calculating than you'd expect and plays the fool because it usually makes things easier him when he's written off as "Just Nice". He has either a hidden or deeply repressed darker side and can be very passive aggressive and catty when pushed enough, but he's subtle about it in a way that Copia isn't.

In a lot of ways, I see V being a foil and reflection of his twin. Copia has the image of a confident and suave sex symbol- but was revealed to be kind of ditzy, openly temperamental, and just a guy. And I'm currently reading V as someone introduced as sweet and a little clueless- but actually very perceptive, prone towards absolutely devastating laser pointed insults when pissed off, and maybe a lil more inhuman then we might expect.

Part 4 of my Impera ghoul designs: Swiss and Mountain. These two were the hardest for me to figure out but hopefully, they turned out alright Previous designs: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 Headcanons under the cut:

Mountain

During the Prequelle era he had long hair and it was occasionally braided by the ghoulettes. Once Impera came, he decided to cut it so it wouldn't get in the way while he worked (Swiss held a funeral for the loss)

Flowers grow on his horns during the spring

He wears different pants to accommodate his hooves and help him move easily while drumming, it's tailored to look like the regular ghoul uniform

His biggest weakness: Freshly waxed floors

Swiss

His eyes are hidden most of the time but the Siblings are advised not to look directly at his eyes specifically

Styles his hair in multiple ways after finding a fashion magazine

Very silent when he moves, Copia got so sick of getting jumpscared by the ghoul that he placed bells by the end of his tail. Swiss thinks it's funny and uses the bells to annoy him instead by constantly jingling them

Gender is not real at the Ministry but horror movie monster archetypes definitely are.

Real canon thing that happened…. rockstar told me..

oooh copiaether save me ooooh ooooooh copiaaether save save me copiaaether save me….

// Guys the new ghoulette is just cowbell after transitioning thats how she knows how to play the cowbell when swiss cant
