The first sketch of '23! Featuring another Yotsuba panel redraw, with Shadow and a character I actually haven't taked about yet, Shred! That's what happens when you only get the story through the lense of what I end up drawing, I guess...

Anyway, there's a travelling rockstar roving around Cloud Continent, a Mephismon X who goes by The Devil. During his stay in Dawn, we meet his 'groupies,' Sunshine's childhood friend Shadow and his boyfriend, Shred, a Strabimon. This quickly turns into an attempted-murder-mystery, as the group meets Mooch because The Devil wants him dead after Mooch finds out his terrible secret-- The Devil is a lipsyncer. Shadow, being a fairly decent guy and having left his assassin upbringing behind him, only chases Mooch out of the city during their visit instead of killing him.

After the evening's concert and a few good persuasion rolls, Shadow and Shred explain the whole situation. The Devil isn't taking advantage of them, he's actually their bodyguard. Shred, the real singer and writer of all of the music, used to travel with Shadow and perform until a pack of Ogremon beat the two rookies bloody and took all their profits. The Devil, an Ultimate level Digimon, agreed to be their bodyguard in exchange for getting to be the face of the 'band,' an arrangement that worked out for all of them due to his undeniable stage presence. He's a bit of a diva, but that's to be expected with any good performer...

The party was livid that The Devil was a faker, but Gleam, raised as a politician from hatching, still doesn't get why that was a bad thing...

Later on we found that The Devil was using his position of fame to search out other Digimon with the X Antibody, since his saturation was running low and he feared reverting to his previous state, and he wanted to get a fresh infusion from a natural producer of the antibodies.

"

The devil lifts you up like fucking Rafiki for a moment to stare into your eyes under the moonlight. He then slowly leaned you toward him until he actually draped your chest across his face.
And you heard him inhale very deeply.

Rose is kind of blushing as she looks at Folio and a text box appears. 'What is going on???'

Folio's brain is working on overdrive, before she says and her eyebrows raise up. "Oh my gosh. I didn't smell right...YOU were next to me, Rose!"

Meanwhile, the Devil slowly pulls Rose away from his face and just.....laughs. Downright madman cackles. Giddy, gleeful, manic. It's enough to silence pretty much all of the conversation that's happening at the festival.

"It's you." He said, as he practically cradled Rose's body into his arms like a precious baby.

He stared into your eyes, with all the eyes that peek through his clothing.

"May I?"

The Devil shares blood with Rose, renewing himself by topping up his antibodies, and promptly quits the band, having found what he'd been looking for all that time.

...But he'd been travelling with Shadow and Shred for a while by that point, and when Shadow ends up in the hospital less than twenty-four hours after losing him as a bodyguard, The Devil finds himself overcome with worry. He'd become more attached to those boys than he'd realized, and immediately flocked back to them to beat the tar out of the one who'd dared lay a claw on his Shadow. They renew their contract with a much more openhearted air, and The Devil reveals HE is actually a THEY, and starts to sing WITH Shred instead of being his face on stage, with a voice as angelic as their features are devilish.

The power of good rolls, y'all. Happy Ending!
