Nightmare and Dream but feral, non-skeletal body!
For the love of god PLEASE click on the image for better quality + close ups and clothed version under the cut!!
Would you kiss them?
Video process:
I made these using a specific context
A while ages ago I drew and posted a drawing of Nightmare and Dream on their light ball form but with some alterations/personal headcanons.
On the post, I expressed my desire to draw the twins in a universe were Nim didn’t need to give them bodies, and just let them grow naturally. And specifically give them an animalistic appearance, instead of a humanoid one like most artist do.
You can see on the process video that it took me 1000 sketches to make something that looked good and I was happy with, the video is obviously sped up, the total time it took me to make this was 28 hours and 15 minutes.
Now explaining some things:
Why are they so big?
I read on a post made by Joku that Nim, before giving them skeleton bodies, tried to make them human ones, but the pure amount of magic and power the twins had made the human bodies explode or some shit. So she picked skeletons since the magic could flow freely through the bones without being confined by muscle and flesh. That made me think if their power had physical forms, it would be gigantic. So I gave them gigantic forms to better represent their status of strength and power, beings made from raw magic to serve as guardians of all emotions throughout the multiverse, of course I needed to make them big and intimidating!
Why the horns?
Artistic design choice, I gave them little horns and a chubby tail in their light ball form to purposefully make them more animalistic, wanted to keep it while making these. Also just giving them a smooth head with nothing much going on looked weird and boring.
Why the draconian look?
Dragons had been created and depicted as symbols of pure power above humanity and worshipped as deities throughout several cultures around the world, different depictions of dragons has been one of the only things present among almost all cultures, like a default folklore creature. While I tried to incorporate other mythical creatures in the design, the draconic body plan felt more right due to the influence of dragons on human beliefs, and their representation as magical and powerful beings beyond human comprehension. Plus I just really love drawing dragons.
Why the clothing choice? Also why is Dream half naked while Nightmare has everything covered?
While designing the clothes for Nightmare, I used as reference clothing that usually royalty would wear, Nightmare has a really big ego and sees himself as a king, so he uses fancy, expensive clothing and jewelry, adapted and designed for his anatomy. Not practical for battle, but his corruption can go through the fabric without damaging it, and most people and monsters just run when they see him, so he doesn’t worry about it getting dirty or tearing, Nightmare just expects every soul to instantly submit when they see him, so he never worries about getting into a battle and getting dirty he has that big of an ego.
Dream is the opposite, his style of clothing much more practical for running, jumping, flying, fighting and general exercise. He has 4 bags in total, 2 on each side, inside them he keeps several items, be it healing food, magical artifacts, first aid kit, gifts he receives, stuff he buys or random things he finds and wants to take home with him. Dream’s crown is now a colar couldn’t figure out how to make it work with the head shape and horns, his cape is from his official design, but changed to white, was planning to make it yellow but when I looked at it my eyes hurt because there was too much yellow everywhere. I made Dream’s clothes with the intent to match his official design, I didn’t to the same for nightmare because a turtle neck with a hoodie on a dragon would make him more huggable than intimidating. Plus I like to think that the leg warmers was a gift from Blue, and the ring on his horn a gift from Ink. Didn’t add more stuff on him because I couldn’t think of something that would look good and match Dream’s vibe, the rest of his clothes on his official design didn’t translate well here. Oh, while I was drawing this, I drew the colar and the leg warmers first, without the cape, Dream looked like a twink with a pet play kink.
Side note; neither Nightmare or Dream see the use of clothes as a necessity or as decency. For them clothes are nothing but pure decoration and to show off status for Nightmare, they can wear full body suits, partial clothing, just jewelry, or nothing at all, which is what they usually go for when at home, wearing or not wearing stuff doesn’t make that much of a difference to them at all.
Do they act as animals or do they have human intelligence?
Despite me using the word “feral” all the time to describe them, they do not actually act as animals. I’m only using “feral” to describe their body/anatomy, Nightmare and Dream are fully sentient and have human level intelligence/awareness. They are capable of speech and have opposable thumbs on their front paws, they can grab, write, hold… do anything a human can do with their hands with dexterity. But they do have to use only hand one at a time, and balance themselves with the other. To use both hands, they have to be sitting, or be supported by something, they can balance themselves on their wings if they have to.
And now contradicting what I just said, they have some animalistic behaviors. The twins can growl, purr and roar. Despite Nightmare being able to use his tentacles and Dream being able to shoot magic arrows out of his wings, they to also scratch and bite while fighting. Since they are big and heavy, they can easily crush bone under their weight and their bite force is strong enough to split someone in half. If you need a reference, just use Smaug from The Hobbit, he has more or less the balance of animal behavior and human intelligence I’m looking for.
Expanding more on this, the twins stretch just like felines, and often sleep in positions usually cats sleep in (they don’t actually need to sleep but do anyway). Dream likes to go fishing, and by fishing I mean jumping in a lake and chasing the fish underwater. He finds it more fun than sitting around and waiting for the fish to come to you instead.
I guess you count their lack of necessity to wear clothes as animal logic too?

If you have any more questions about them, I will be happy to answer!
And yes, I do plan on making more drawings of Nightmare and Dream on this form!

Bruh…
Don’t beg me at the end I feel terrible now! I’m sorry!
I don’t know how to be myself anymore but I know that you would not love me for me. You Tumblrs have proven that much. I’m sorry, but I don’t trust you enough to come out. I watched someone with my beliefs admit to their beliefs and y’all chewed them out and hated them so fast I had to take a break from Tumblr out of pure fear.
Maybe a few of you would still love me. But I don’t want to have to leave Tumblr because a thousand haters want me dead.
I’m not showing y’all my true colours until I see y’all treat everyone with love and compassion.
And let this be a wake up call!
Be nice, guys!
Because if you aren’t nice to others even when they’re cruel, why should they ever be nice to you?
Please
Please learn compassion
I’m begging you
And I’m talking to myself too so don’t get all fender bent about me being a hypocrite. I know I am. That’s why I’m saying it. So I can remind myself while making you aware.
I love you all so much and there’s nothing you can do about it
found this cool quiz
Well then. Shit.
@thestrangesun @epicthrees @ziggysspiders @humanteethmarksonhumanbone and anyone who wants to join ofc
#uquiz#melodie rambles#please be kind#there will never be enough kind people in the world#please be one of them

headcanons 2 electric boogaloo part 103 because i'm still not normal
(The first post cut me off in character limit, so here's the continuation :3)
(These can be general headcanons, found family, queer platonic, or poly if you want to interpret them in any way ^^)
There's couch that can fit then entire gang on it that everyone likes to sit at. Dust dislikes anyone taking his spot, Killer constantly keeps changing spots, Cross always picks his spot last, Horror sits on the floor, and Nightmare sits in a arm chair off to the side.
Killer forces all of the gang to watch movies every so often, typically when things become stale around the castle. The rest all act like they hate it, but Horror still makes popcorn, Dust collects all the blankets, and Cross helps set up the TV.
During the winter, the gang all huddle up in Nightmare's room for a large sleepover. The castle can be big and chilly.
Nightmare used to keep a moderate distance between his subordinates and himself. However, the first time Killer ended up in the infirmary changed that. It was only the two of them, and Nightmare realized the fragility of mortals that day.
Nightmare is a worrier for several reasons.
Nightmare mixes and matches his team in groups of 2, rarely sending any one of his men on solo missions (unless absolutely necessary). Safety in numbers.
Horror's love language is giving gifts and acts of service. He feels conflicted receiving it back, preferring touch instead.
Same with the last point, Horror is a cuddle bug- to Killer's delight.
Dust can't sleep in one, continuous stretch. This results with him taking 2-3 hour power naps at varying times throughout the day.
Horror snores in his sleep. Not loudly, but kind of like a soft rumble with each breath.
Dust likes Horror's snoring. It's therapeutic.
Killer sleeps like a corpse. Still and silent- which is strange when juxtaposed by his usual, lively demeanor.
Cross is an early riser and late sleeper. His circadian rhythm is exact, and runs like clockwork.
We're not going to talk about Killer's sleep schedule. He knows its bad. No one can fix it.
When Cross first joined, he felt extremely guilty for his chocolate cravings. After a while and some encouragement from the others, he finds himself indulging himself (at least in this one regard).
Cross loves sweets, not just chocolate. Chocolate just happens to be one of his favorite things/flavors though.
Cross keeps a mini snack stash in his pocket at all times. On missions, out and about, in his room, training, etc. You can look over at him and see him pop a chocolate kiss in his mouth. His one guilty pleasure.
Nightmare and Dust enjoy their fair share of alcoholic drinks. Nightmare has quite the collection- ranging from various years of quality, make, and base. Of course, they are all expensive.
Horror and Cross are indifferent to alcohol. They may indulge in it when there is a special occasion, but otherwise they don't go out of their way.
Killer is the only one that does not enjoy alcohol. If you see him drinking, leave him be. Bro is probably going through it.
Dust sometimes wears glasses to read. Depends on if he cares to put them on or not.
Out of the group, Cross is the designated driver. Nightmare not only doesn't know how to, but also doesn't have full peripheral vision. Horror and Dust would get stressed out/overstimulated on the road.
Killer is the backup driver, but there is a 80% chance of the car crashing at the end. Despite this, he's one hell of a getaway driver.
Horror likes to spend time out in the garden.
Killer is the only one which has explored every room/inch in the castle. He sometimes uses secret passages to scare the others, or cut his walking time in half.
Cross has a nervous habit of fidgeting with his heart locket.
Dust has claustrophobia. Small spaces, large crowds, feeling trapped? He'll come out swinging.
Everyone knows this and always is careful to make sure Dust has an easy out whenever they nap together.
Nightmare is always the one to attend to any of their wounds when they get hurt on missions. He fusses and lectures and rants the whole time he's bandaging them up, mending broken bones, treating illnesses. Everyone knows its because he cares.
Dust get sick the easiest. Because his own magic is trying to boil him alive from the inside out sometimes.
Killer is the least likely to get sick.
Nightmare can't get sick.
Okay, well, Nightmare can, but it would have to be like. the plague to end all plagues.
Nightmare doesn't let any of the boys buy apples.
The only times Horror wears his hood over his head is if its raining/snowing. His head gets itchy if he wears it up for too long.
Killer has a knife on him at all times. You can pat this man down, take off a couple of knives, and he can still shank you afterwards.
All of them, to some extent, have trust issues. They learn to trust each other over time, though.
Nightmare hangs up pictures of his boys up in his office. He even frames them.
Nightmare has a secret picture tucked in a drawer in his desk. It's a drawing that Dream had made for him (a crude drawing of the both of them in a field of flowers), one he had safely folded and tucked into his favorite book as a child.
After the whole apple fiasco, the book barely survived (the picture along with it) and Nightmare rereads it whenever he's feeling sentimental.
Killer is extremely nosy. If he can't get what he wants by asking/prodding, he'll snoop. Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back and all.
I don't remember if I mentioned this in the other post, but Nightmare's bed is HUGE. Like King Deluxe plus plus. It also has those fancy canopy, curtain things that can close around the bed.
Killer's bed doesn't have a bedframe, just a mattress.
Dust's bed is circular and decently big. It also has that drape canopy that can cover it, as well as a shit ton of pillows.
Horror gets cold easily.
Nightmare makes sure Horror gets enough blankets during particular cold nights. Maybe a heater too.
Killer has a bad habit of sleeping in other people's rooms. He just barges in and makes himself at home. Over time, the others have let him get away with it.
Lots of mirrors in the castle were taken down after Dust shattered the first few.
That doesn't stop Killer from having a full body one in his room though.
Cross has a favorite training dummy.
Horror names his weapons and kitchen tools. He tends to keep that to himself.
Killer, weirdly enough, knows how to repair clothes. Hole in your jacket? He can stitch it back fairly neatly.
Dust has ripped quite a few sets of clothes in his days. He's gotten used to shrugging them off and dumping them on Killer.
Killer always returns Dust's stuff with a little chocolate inside the pocket/with it (probably stolen from Cross's stash).
When Horror gets anxious, he starts to pick at the crack in his head. To stop this habit, he just sits on his hands.
Nightmare thinks its a little amusing that Horror sits on his hands. Hey, if it works for Horror, then that's all the king needs.
Whenever Nightmare needs to run errands, he always brings Cross with him and lets Killer hold down the fort in his absence.
Cross works hard with Nightmare every year to ensure that their realm can't be found by anyone else. Encrypting code, manipulating magic, etc. While this is an annual thing that they do, Cross checks up on the state of it every month diligently.
Nightmare and Killer like the ocean. They visit it sometimes.
Horror makes sure to create meals that are balanced, healthy, and to preference. Also likes to keep the fridge stocked up.
Cross and Dust sometimes play chess with each other.
The whole gang (minus Nightmare) love playing cards.
Uno cards are banned from the castle after Nightmare repaired the three large holes in his castle wall.
Horror puts all of his food scraps in a compost bin and recycles it into his garden.
Aaaaand that's the limit again.
Very silly to think about, but I might make a separate one concerning ships/bsp because my mind started to wander LMAOOOOO
Hope you enjoy these!
