I should have guessed someone would post the link to that. Bless Anna S.

If I only had a brain...

Could somebody tell me what fandom this sketch is in? Because I'd like to order six gallons, ta.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I think that's Yami no Matsui*, Betsy.

And yowza, that's one nice sketch. I'll have to admit though, that the particular pairing there made go "bwuh?" once the first wave of "oooh, pwetty!" passed.

*AKA "Decendants of Darkness," AKA "Dead Gay Detectives." Lots and lots and lots of canonical HoYay.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

OK, I only watched the first three episodes of Yami. The one with the glasses is the evil doctor who lusts after the hero, right? Who's the blindfolded one? 'Cause he doesn't look like Tsuzuki, who has longer hair, IIRC.

Muraki.

I'm not sure who else it could be besides Tsuzuki, although maybe shrift will weigh in.

Betsy, I suspect you'd like YnM. It's over-the-top melodrama, gorgeous in its excesses, and the subtext is tasty. Plus, there are occasional vampires, and there's one episode about music. It's called "Descendants of Darkness" in English, and Netflix has it.

The person who posted it says it's Touda.

Mild spoiler: Touda. He's the human form of the Big Ass Snake that Tsuzuki summons in the last arc, and yes, the two of them have some lovely chemistry.

Huh. Okay, I remember that, but does he actually appear like that in the anime? (Says the person who has an unopened box set of the anime sitting on her coffee table.)

Unfortunately not, Dana.

As those who have come before have said, the one in glasses and white is EVIL Doctor Muraki. He is EVIL and fey and EVIL and he has many potential love interests and also is EVIL. Really, really evil. Did I mention that he's hot and fey and evil? And has a sexy pimp boyfriend named Oriya? Muraki had childhood trauma. It really doesn't excuse his evil.

Muraki is obsessed with Tsuzuki. Tsuzuki is gorgeous and old and powerful and sweet, and a goof obsessed with desserts, but he's a really, really (insanely, dude, like whoa) powerful goof with old hurts. Old, nasty unspeakable hurts. He's. God, Tsuzuki's hot when he's evil. If I remember correctly, Tsuzuki can call on 12 shikigami (powers), which makes him THE rock star of all death gods. Despite this, he can't hold onto a partner for around 70 years, until he meets his current partner Hisoka. (I dunno, Tsuzuki is sort of, like, a mix of Xander and Spike and Angel and Wesley. Is that enough combined guilt for you? It might not be enough for Tsuzuki.)

In the picture, the one threatening Muraki is Touda. Touda is Tsuzuki's, one of his shikigami. Tsuzuki calls upon his shikigami in times of need, and I believe they agree to serve and aid him of their own free will. Touda's not in the anime as far as I can recall, and as of volume 8 (released in English in the US) he hasn't yet appeared in the manga. But Touda is fire, wildfire. Tsuzuki gave him peace (something to do with getting Touda out of his prison for some crime), and Touda is willing to do whatever Tsuzuki says.

And, well. When you consider the relationships between Touda, Muraki, and Tsuzuki? That picture is even more unbearably hot. Is all I'm saying.
