1.     DILF Sigma: THE prompt. Once I’d seen that, I just knew that I had to challenge myself into making it cute, humorous and sexy. Bringing out all four letters, you know. Because we all would love to feel those muscles, and there’s no use lying to ourselves about it… Diana is one lucky gal~

And to illustrate the D(addy), I just had to use my headcanon again and throw in all the kids (the twins are the oldest, then comes Luna and Kyle and Left/Dio is the adopted one). What can I say? I just love them being happy!

2.      SigDi: Unlike Junpei and Akane, we’ve never got to see Sigma proposing to Diana, and I’m here to fix this horrible mistake, because they absolutely deserve that.

How many times did he try to do it, only to find that one woman he loved forever more queitly slip through his fingers like the sand in the hourglass?  

The first time was on the Moon, when he found her, her face kissed by the cruel light of the stars, her, like the rightful Queen of the Moon, already taking her rightful place and frolicking among them, something she couldn’t do while bound to her frail form. She seemed to smile serenely at her lover, as if accepting his proposal as he placed the ring upon her marble-like finger, his tears shining brighter than the useless diamonds on the symbol of eternity.

The second time was during their hopeless wait for Akane to save the stranded couple and their yet-unborn twins at Dcom. As Sigma felt his strengh gradually slipping away from him, his burning desire to save the people closest to him made him survive, albeit barely, every day that he had to spend together with the woman that was now pregnant with his children. While still holding on to the last shreds of hope, he knew he couldn’t her slip away like before, and, even though he couldn’t ensure their survival, he could at least make amends for the last time. So while Diana was resting, he made use of whatever tools and materials there were and made her an engagement ring; a crude thing made of wire, aluminum and glass - he was no artist, but an engineer - it nonetheless shone brightly with his love for her. He found her sobbing in the shower in her nightgown, clutching to Phi’s brooch, her hair in disarray, her face stained with tears. He helped her to her feet, caressed her face, took her hand gently, and placed the finger on it rightful place, trying his best to not let the extreme exhaustion show through his smile. Diana looked at him, surprised, tears of sadness gave way to tears of gratitude and joy. He promised her that they will see this through - they have had each other, after all…

The third time is the charm, Sigma thought. He still was no craftsman, but he still made his best effort at stitching the plush lion - Diana’s favourite animal - that would play the key role on the Christmas night. Everything is going to be right since the entire incident with Dcom was over and they jumped over to a proper timeline. When the moment was right, he gently grabbed Diana’s warm shoulder and presented her the silly plushie with the ring in its’ mouth. As he watched her eyes light up with the realisation, gasping with excitement, he blinked away his tears of joy. This time, he knew that the third time is the charm.

(I am not a writer, so I hope thet you enjoy this little piece I made up to go with the artwork!)

3.      Akane Girlbossing: Now this was an idea that I’ve wanted to draw for the longest time. Akane is, in a way, an all-seeing goddess, overseeing every single timeline and weaving those timelines together or cutting them short according to her own will. She would even be willing to cut that red string of fate - maybe even the poor Jumpy’s life - short, as she searches for the perfect solution to her burning dilemmas. She may appear heartless and calculating; ready to stain those scissors with some blood, but that image is even more beneficial for her, as she can ensure that everyone, including her and Junpei, will have a happy ending that way… as the almighty goddess wills it.

So, there you have it! All three works were done traditionally (liners, alcohol markers, watercolors, acrylic and ink markers with post-processing in Clip Studio Paint).

I wish reksigh, the Zecret Santa mods, participants, and everyone in the fandom a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! This year had been hectic, so here’s to hoping that things will take a turn for the better in the upcoming year for everyone! Take care, stay safe and enjoy the festivities!
