"Through the flickering lights of the club, through the strangers trying to touch him- Vander watches him."

Last illustration for the @zaundadsbigbang.bsky.social from the fanfic "Still adore you with your hands around my neck", by the incredible writer eraklys.

#vanco #zaundads #vander #silco

Comic with characters from the Netflix show Arcane.
First panel: A lot of people dance under purple and pink artificial lights. At the center of it we see Young Silco being approached by a stranger, clearly asking him to dance together.
Second panel: Silco and the stranger dance together. Silco is smiling, following the music, grinding against the guy while the other holding his hips against himself.
Third panel: Young Vander is sitting at the bar, holding an empty glass, looking drunk, angry, and jealous.
Fourth panel: Close up of Vander's eyes, looking even angrier.
Fifth panel: The hand of another stranger touches Vander's leg, saying "Hey, big guy..."

My art for the @zaundadsbigbang.bsky.social illustrating the amazing fic "Rest your Weary Head and Love a Better Me" by @adrian-tepes.bsky.social ! Go read it for soft dad Silco and tense reunions! archiveofourown.org/works/72325331 #vanco #zaundads #Vander #Silco #Viktor

A scene in the 'Last Drop'. The light is low and it's closing time. Vander is behind the bar, cleaning the countertop with a rag and looking ahead in surprise at Silco, who is carrying a young Viktor into the bar. We see Silco from behind.

A blöack and white illustration of Vander and Silco in a tight hug. Silco is crying a singular tear. They are in the office of the 'Last Drop', behind them is the sofa with a sleeping young Viktor resting fretfully on it.

#vanco #zaundads #vander #silco #arcane

Comic with the characters Silco and Vander from the Netflix show Arcane.
First panel: Young Silco is wiping blood from his mouth with the back of his hand. It's dark with only a faint white light hitting his expression. He looks angry, gritting his teeth.
Second panel: Silco is still dirty if blood on his face, chest, and leg. Standing on top of the corpse of an enforcer, killed by him, with a chunk of meat missing from his open neck.
Third panel: Vander's looking at Silco, he seems shocked.

@zaundadsbigbang.bsky.social
I had so much fun discovering the weimar period and the late 20's-early 30's fashion with @yuzudelamer.bsky.social! He has so much knowledge about this and it was a pleasure to learn and read his fic!

I'm so excited to share my fic for the @zaundadsbigbang.bsky.social ! It's a historical AU set in the Weimar era and I'm really proud of how it turned out. I worked with the very talented artist @aasura2.bsky.social ✨

Screenshot of a fanfic on AO3
Relationships: Vander/Silco, Felicia/Connol, Jayce/Viktor
Title: angels of a better future
Author: yuzudelamer
Summary:
1925, Berlin. The city’s underbelly beckons, particularly to a young man named Vander, unsure of almost everything but his own queer desires. A lovely figure catches his eye, and Silco finds an eager new client. Though the grim shadow of National Socialism has not yet taken hold of the city, rumors abound and people worry. For better and worse, Silco and Vander are not the sort to sit idly by.
Warnings include violence, trans male pregnancy/mpreg, and minor character death

lie back and think of zaun
by liesel_fogel
Summary:

"Think about it, Sev—no more late night calls. No more fishing him outta the Pilt when he has a bad day. He'll have Vander to torment instead of us."

"Don't call me Sev," Sevika snapped. She hung her head, letting out a long-suffering sigh.

"Oh, hells," she said, and met Ran's eyes square on. "I'm in. Let's get those two miserable old men fucking again."
-------

In which Sevika and Ran conspire to get Silco and Vander back together.
OR
Silco gets put in the torture chair and Vander fucks his brains out.

#zaundadsbigbang

Screenshot of an aor work's title and summary. Title is "what lies between altar and flame" and summary is "It was sheltering two children from a storm that brought demon and priest together, yet fate would see to it that they would encounter each other continually. Memories are ripped from old wounds, and newly-formed bonds are tested."

Slowly but surely I'm posting my #ZaundadsBigBang2025 contribution. archiveofourown.org/works/71725996
What is it? As the title says it's a tale of reconciliation and a revolution. My take on what had happened in "act 1" of s02e07 AU. And added family drama, as I love thedad part of #zaundads

Happy #ZaundadsBigBang2025 !!

Vander and Silco do NOT get along... what happens when they're forced to parent two grieving girls?

Chapter 1 up now, updating every day this week!
archiveofourown.org/works/71570636

Screenshot of the title and summary for my fic "Nothing you can do... stop me loving you"

Text reads:
"I know I begged you to try things out with him," Felicia says, quiet. "I really did think you'd do well together. I thought you'd fall for each other. That we'd be this perfect constellation, just us four, growing old together." She shrugs, following his gaze over to Silco, who is smiling up at Powder, a tiny, sweet thing that Vander has only ever seen directed at Felicia and the girls. It makes his stomach flip sometimes, when he catches it out of the corner of his eye.

"Sorry it didn't work like that, Fel."

OR

Silco and Vander have a contentious relationship. They won't admit (out loud) to the spark of attraction between them, and have sworn each other off after one disastrous date. 15 years later, they still can't get along for anything in the world, not even their best friends' growing family.

When Felicia and Connol unexpectedly pass and leave Violet and Powder in their care, Silco and Vander have to decide if they can put their differences to the side and give their new charges a safe and happy home. They find out along the way exactly why Felicia and Connol tried so hard to get them together all those years ago.

Part of the Zaundads Big Bang 2025!
