@darling-aries requested: Hey! I saw that you are wanting some request? I was wondering if I could request a singer MC who has been put on vocal rest (with possible vocal damage) because of overuse? I have done something very similar to this recently and it is awful. My speaking voice is really hoarse/non-existent if I speak for to long. I also have a cough that won’t go away. I just want some RFA boi comfort… :’( You can decide what RFA character you want to write for. Im not picky!
A/N: hi @darling-aries im so sorry that this request took so long and it’s only two characters T-T my summer has been surprisingly busy but i hope your vocal rest is going well & you’re feeling better!!! this is my fist time writing for these characters so I hope they aren’t ooc ;-; sending good vibes your way and i hope you’re having a wonderful day <3
Summary:Scenarios of how Zen and Jumin would react with MC on vocal rest!
Warnings: vocal rest but nothing else i don’t think ;3
- Zen -
- this man knows the struggle
- overused his voice a couple of times after doing too many intense performances in a row
- is willing to have a one-sided conversation while you text him and he talks to you
- whenever you try to talk to him, he’ll scold you just a lil bit
- “I want you to get better, jagiya. Can’t do that if you keep talking.”
- gives you excessive amounts of physical affection to make up for it
- lots of kisses on your throat all in the name of making you feel better
- “This is where it hurts right? I’ll kiss it better!”
-honestly just a cutie i love him T-T

As much as you hated the whole “vocal rest” thing, this was pretty amazing. Zen had decided that, because you couldn’t sing or speak, this would be the perfect time to give you a private performance of his own creation. A medley of all of your favorite songs along with songs you performed before. Your round of applause sounded throughout the apartment. Zen took a deep and over dramatic bow, waving to an imaginary audience. “Thank you, thank you! I’ll be here all week!” Zen half-shouted, blowing kisses at you. Grabbing a water bottle and plopping himself on the couch next to you, he dragged you on his lap and took out his phone. “How’d I do babe? As amazing as you’d hoped?” he asked, expectantly waiting for your response. Typing out a flurry of praises, a handful of pings came from Zen’s phone. “I see,” he said, drawing out the “e”. “Your favorite part was when I had the least amount of clothes on, hmm?” he teased, pulling you closer to him. “If I didn’t know any better I’d think you only like me for my body,” he joked. At your pouting face he let out a loud laugh, the sound of your fast typing in the background. Another ping, your indignance showing clearly through your expression and text message. “Sorry jagiya, you’re just too cute to tease,” he said, his voice dropping slightly as he planted a kiss on your neck.
- Jumin -
- probably more concerned than anything else
- also the silence in the apartment is a little unsettling for him
- you have unlocked “concerned husband”
- has a little furrow in between his brows whenever he hears you cough
- unintentionally makes you laugh with his bluntness of how rough you sound
- “Your laugh sounds like a dog toy, darling.”
- buys you all the fancy teas and remedies
- definitely takes off work at least the first day just so he can make sure you’re ok
- just a lil overbearing but it’s only because he wants you to make a full recovery!!!
~~~~~
“Jumin-“
“No darling, you have to drink the tea.”
You love your husband, you promise, but this is ridiculous. The third cup of tea you’ve had today and Jumin is insistent that you drink another. Letting out another painful cough, you grab the pen and paper Jumin had given you and write a quick response and hold out the paper. Reading your refusal to drink the tea, Jumin sighs. “You know I won’t force you, but please take care of yourself.” You nod at him, turning your attention back to the show you were watching. Out of the corner of your eye, you spot Jumin typing on his laptop, and check to see what he’s doing. Stifling a laugh, you read the name of the article he’s reading, “Top 10 Best Remedies for Vocal Rest.” Gently tapping on his hand to get his attention, you slowly close his laptop and Jumin looks at you questioningly. Writing out a quick response, you tell him how much you appreciate him taking care of you, but assure him that you’ll be fine. Once Jumin reads your response, he heaves a sigh and grasps your hand in his. “I have been a bit overbearing haven’t I?” he asks you, his brows furrowing a bit in consideration. As you nod, Jumin releases a deep breath and kisses your knuckles. “I just want you to feel better darling. I feel useless not being able to take this pain away.” He looks so sad and dejected, you give him a kiss between his brows to get him to relax. Grasping your hand, he kisses your ring finger once more before asking again, “Can I get anything else for you?”
“Just cuddles,” you wrote, and without another word, Jumin picked you up bridal style and carried you to bed, at peace knowing he’s helping you heal through his warmth and love.
Originally not meant to be a comic, but when I was doodling the first pic I was wondering “What is MC looking at on her phone?” lol
Thank you to everyone who sent me messages! I really appreciate the support. My intention from now on is to just post things in bulk since that way I feel less pressured to try and post something every other day.
So be ready for the occassional landslide of my art :)
My piece for the @mysmehalloweenzine! Final sales for the zine end on May 5th!
So if there’s merch still available, I highly recommend supporting the zine. I love the Halloween aesthetic so everything about the zine was right up my alley ^-^ Was given permission to post it a few weeks ago. I wanted to try and finish something else before I posted…But that thing is taking longer than expected and now I figured why the hell should I wait?
Happy B-Day Zen! I wanted to do something bigger for you but a misbehaving tablet and a sore wrist made it difficult to finish in time TvT For some reason, I like doodling Zen and MC cuddling in bed. Zen just looks like he’ll be warm to snuggle
I’ll try and make it up for small updates in 2019 by fixing up a lot of Zen doodles and comics I drafted. I’m not done celebrating Zen just yet.
It seems like after years of being pretty lenient on NSFW content, Tumblr is bringing the hammer down on it. I can understand why, but at the same time I can’t help but feel like this ban on ALL adult content is pretty extreme.
With that said! If something happens to this blog and if you want to keep up with my MM and BNHA art uncensored and unfiltered, you can find me on both Twitter and Instagram!:
Instagram: @digitalscratch For all SFW as well as a look at my artist alley booth and merch. I also post art and doodles on here that I personally don’t want to show on Tumblr.
Twitter: @digitalscratchz. For full resolution art. I don’t tweet much unless you want to hear me randomly ramble. They appear to be more lenient on NSFW here, so if I do any more drawings of beefy guys I’ll be cross-posting on both Tumblr and Twitter until Tumblr arrests me.
I’ll still be posting stuff on Tumblr! I’ll just be cross-posting between all three accounts from now.
This is just a back up so you all can follow me somewhere else without worrying about my blog getting flagged. ^-^;;
Random ZenxMC doodles! ☺️ I’m trying to do stuff like this once every day. With zero care or doubt in how anatomically accurate or detailed things are. It’s honestly pretty liberating to just draw with zero fucks lol. It’s all just fluff. I want to draw them doing more domestic things in the future. Post link
A small preview of my piece for the @mysmehalloweenzine ! I’m a sucker for the Halloween aesthetics so I’m so happy to be able to contribute to this project. Keep an eye open for preorders~
One night in a group chat many many months ago it was randomly brought up how MC has two different dresses in her endings with Zen.
So, of course, the main question was “Why??”, especially since the dresses were so different.
Then it was suggested that maybe she’s wearing Zen’s sweater in his Good Ending. Then the wonderful @michiigii-writes-mysme expanded on that: She’s wearing a sweater over the dress she wears in the Normal End.
AND BAM. SLOPPY COMIC BORN.
Michii also helped me write out the dialogue for the last few pages. Please support her writing she’s amazing.
More comics to come. Finals are rearing their ugly head so I’m dying. BUTt I’m desperate to get these out. See ya next time ^0^
Zen’s absolutely precious cause the night when you visit his apartment, he knows he’s goanna pounce MC the moment he holds her hand. Poor boy, even the smallest physical contact would get him riled up.
I’m baaack and with so many HC comics planned :’)) I’m still extremelly busy but I’m going to try so hard to balance everything out and make more content!
Wanted to do something quick to celebrate Mystic Messenger’s 1st Anniverary! ^0^
Three big cheers for Cheritz who made a game that has made me happier than I ever thought it would. Thank you so much for making such a unique otome with such amazing and fun characters~ This game has motivated me to do a lot of things with my art, including starting a zine, and the fandom has been one of the most fun and nicest ones I’ve been in. Thank you Cheritz!
A small thing that @michiigii-writes-mysme and I did for fun while chatting. Some also came from @vess-hs ! You guys are amazing :33

It was to make up for not being able to complete smut, but I don’t mind at all! I LOVE THIS FIC and I LOVE HER WRITING, please check out her blog and her fics if you haven’t yet!
I’m sorry that this is so sloppy TvT But I wanted to somehow show my thanks since I never had anyone write a fic for me before and this made me so happy.
general opinion: fall in a hole and die | don’t like them | eh | they’re fine I guess | like them! | love them | actual love of my life | I’ve never been this so hard in love with a fictional character help me
hotness level: get away from me | meh | neutral | theoretically hot but not my type | pretty hot | gorgeous! | 10/10 would bang | 11/10 would ride him like an untamed stallion
best quality: I actually played the game in the recommended order, so Zen was my first route. And I wasn’t excited at all the first few days. But the more time passed, the better parts of his character were revealed. I think the turning points for me were: The VN that showed him as a child with his brother and the VN where he’s showing you the stars on his rooftop and telling you about his family. And I haven’t been able to let go since
I’ve known a lot of narcissistic characters in anime and games. But the way Zen was written made me see him as not the usual “narcissist wearing a mask.” Because the narcissism is still a part of who Zen is, it’s not a lie. He knows he’s hot and he’s not ashamed of it. Yes, it may be overexaggerated as a result of his circumstances with his family and to also ease his own insecurities. But the narcissistic side of Zen is as real as the insecure Zen. He’s not like Seven who hides behind a happy facade. Does that make sense?
I think the thing that drew me to Zen the most is how he kept persevering down the path of life that HE wanted even though there were so many circumstances against him. Because that’s how much he loves what he does and also wants to prove himself to the world.
He has zero support from his family, he had to resort to doing “bad things” when he was part of the gang in order to survive, he had to work jobs to support himself when he was just starting out as an actor, and often his looks are put above his actual skills (which does bother him.) I also had the impression that Zen was really lonely before he met Rika and V.
But despite all that he kept on going, and even during the game (when his circumstances have improved) he still continues to work hard.
AND Zen doesn’t let his past experiences influence his behavior. He may have insecurities and flaws, but he’s not a 100% bitter or negative person who is constantly angsting. He doesn’t demonize his family either. For the most part, Zen is the type of guy who will tell you what he thinks and feels straight up, regardless how cheesy or how petty it may seem. Maybe too straight up. Zen will make sure you know how single he is.
And that’s the kind of person I would prefer to be around in real life. Someone who isn’t constantly reveling in their bad past and is instead moving forward. Someone who is honest and will tell you what they’re thinking. And especially someone who is shameless and proud of who they are and how they feel.
And oh god I can write even more about how much he seems to really love MC in every route (except Jaehee’s) and how that ending in the Apirl Fools DLC brokeme more than anything I’ve ever played because of how well written it was and how much Zen just loves you.
worst quality: He’s perfect whatchu talkin bout!?
The worst thing about Zen is that he can be extremely petty about things and is quick to jump to certain conclusions. When he doesn’t like someone, he comes off as the kind of guy who will make up like 50 different kinds of assumptions about that someone in order to justify why he doesn’t like them. Even when he barely got the chance to know them well. Remember in the Christmas DLC when he was bitter about the couples and even wanted to give such an amazing performance that will cause all the couples to break up??? All because he didn’t have a lover on Christmas. Zenny that was all adorable, but even I was close to saying “Dude, omg chill.”
And regarding the matter of “jumping to conclusions”: if you tell him you’re spending alone time with either Jumin or Seven in their respective routes, “THEY’RE GOANNA BANG” is pretty much the first thing Zen thinks of. And not gonna lie, I thought he was a bit insensitive to Jumin in Jumin’s route.
Not to mention he seems to get offended (even slightly) when you or the other RFA members aren’t on his side. Like the easiest way to break his heart is to simply stay on Jumin’s side of things, whether it be on simple opinions or actual arguments. He also has a terrible habit of trying to make normal conversations in the chat about him.
I think his bad ends also exemplify a dark side of his loyalty and love. He’s so desperate for your affection, that he’ll take all your crap and still find a reason to love you. This man won’t leave you, even if you treat him like a toy.
On the side of less serious (but still very notable and hurtful) flaws, he gets disheartened very easily and is quick to give up on hope or blame himself when something goes wrong (he treats spraining his ankle like some sort of punishment.) He’ll jump back onto his feet for sure, but when he gets into a slump, he gets into a slump.Not a characteristic worth picking on, but it’s definitely one of his more definite flaws.
ship them with: MC, in-game there’s no one else Zen can love as deeply.
brotp them with: Pretty much the entire RFA. I just want him to be loved.
I don’t ship them at all (borders on NOTP for me), but I do love Zen and Jaehee as supportive buddies. Their interactions in Jaehee’s route were sweet and Zen (along with MC of course) can provide Jaehee with the encouragement she desperately needs.
I actually like seeing Zen as the wanna-be big bro to both Seven and Yoosung, more so with the latter. He brought cookies for Seven when he went to stay at his house, and he’s not quiet about how much he worries about Yoosung and his issues with both the gaming addiction and love.
And while he and Jumin don’t get along past Zen’s route, the civil and friendly conversation they had was really sweet. I still think they’d be great as “love-hate” friends.
needs to stay away from: He desperately wants to reconnect with his family, but I wouldn’t blame him if he never wanted to see them again. Also, hey there Echo Girl.
misc. thoughts: I knew I was too deep into Zen after I got that ending in the April Fools DLC. I didn’t sob sob (though I was pretty close to crying), but I didn’t feel…Okay. It’s hard to describe, but it was like I lost someone important and suddenly I was cold. It’s a flipping dating sim!! Cheritz, why do you hurt me this way????
Another fun fact: I went into MM gunning for 707 because his personality resembled the guy I was in love with during the time the game came out. Turns out what I really needed was a guy like Zen in my life. Whoops.
It’s the Choi Bros’ B-Day, and I choose to post more Zen.
Domestic Werewolf Zen and MC fluff! I got…Lazy near the end so I didn’t want to add things like sound effects and what not ^^;;; I hope you all like it! ^0^
