#Ambition: Light Fingers

[shazzbaa]

do you ever think about how in that one Silverer option and then in the final confrontation, Poor Edward becomes more and more visibly afraid to die, because I think about it a lot

Yeah this is basically that dinner in a nutshell.

So there's this moment from a show called The Mighty Boosh that's been pretty viral recently, and it felt fitting for our favorite masked weirdo and my well-intentioned thief. (Ironically my friend did his own comic of our FL characters with a different scene from the same show)

Anyway shout out to the waiter who has to do their job while these two are having this strange conversation.

(Used a stock photo, figurosity, and my own hands as the base for this comic)

Collection of Hybrid doodles as I tried figuring out how I wanna draw it. I love the bugbaby. I would die for the bugbaby.

Since the Hybrid canonically has the player's eyes, I decided to further some resemblance with Clarabelle to let it have some wavy brown hair from the portraits that refer to her.

One particular thing I find very funny to think about, is; what is the Hybrid thinking when the wedding is happening. Like it's a moon miser, it KNOWS what Moon Milk is suppose to be for; hunting prey. I know it's a smart cookie, but you can't tell me it wouldn't be funny for It to be looking back and forth going "??? Is this guy trying to eat my dad? IS THIS WEIRD GUY MY DAD'S LUNCH?? WHAT IS HAPPENING." (there's honestly justified reasons Hybrid would think Sawyer would eat Edward-)

Also you think Edward was monologuing out loud while collecting the Hybrid's venom. And it was just staring like "bro are you about to eat my dad."

[the-dawnburnt-captain]

Finally made progress in Light-Fingers! ...By which I mean I drove myself insane just to find the living twin of a musician. Fun times. 👍

[thethingwiththefeathers]

Progressing Light Fingers before continuing the plaster-face story seemed like a good idea on paper but I needed to send myself to a state of some confusion and so I did! And asked like one question to the woman I was tracking so I had to grind my nightmares back down which took a couple days because I wanted to track down the manager (a cat sent me home before I could though). But I made it back!

Guess what I had to do for investigating the plaster face? Yup, that’s right, look over the ratty bodies. I prayed to RNJesus and got rather unlucky because I sent my nightmares alllll the way back up to 7 before I made progress. Now I have to grind my nightmares back down (harder to do when I’m not in the loony bin so I might even send myself back there I’m not sure yet I don’t have many friends so)

no Light Fingers spoilers in the notes please!

i spent ALL DAY ON THIS after taking about 12 hours to process what happened on the pier. just, wow. Dr. Müller said yes, of course, they knew they'd be going along with Poor Edward's demands the second someone's life was at stake. and you didn't even give them the ring Eddie!!! smh. do you even know how proposals are supposed to go. additional babbling copypasted from discord under the cut

To put it bluntly, Tomas is upset. Shocking. I know. They went into the docks meeting suspicious of whatever nonsense Ed was gonna pull, and paranoid because of the location. Honestly, they were probably pretty close to how they usually act at Zee, just tunnel visioned in on what needs to be done so they can get out of there, especially since they had to go down a pier (terrible spot Eddie! they hate the Zee!!!). They were not, however, expecting Poor Edward to drag another person into this. And they are so. ANGRY. AT HIM. AT THEMSELF, FOR BEING FOOLISH ENOUGH TO ALMOST PITY HIM THE LAST FEW DAYS. SHAKES POOR EDWARD. YOU'RE INFURIATING. YOU WERE SO CLOSE. THEY WERE THINKING THEMSELF INTO CIRCLES TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IF YOU WERE WORTHY OF THE SYMPATHY THEY FELT. FEEL. THEY DON'T KNOW ANYMORE. and there he goes shooting himself in the foot on that front, by bringing Hephaesta into the mix.

Tomas didn't hesitate before saying yes. The second they saw that another life was at stake, they knew they were going to go along with Poor Edward's demands. And they are very pointedly avoiding thinking about it, instead throwing themself into helping Hephaesta. They feel so stupid for not noticing her disappearance, and quite a bit guilty, so it's the least they can do. And a bit more selfishly, to keep themself from thinking about who they've promised themself to.

MOON MILK OVERLOAD

AKA, I found a cute redraw your ship as this and realized I had a hilarious opportunity on my hand.

Let's just be thankful Edward doesn't have to deal with this many PCs at once. Otherwise he would indeed be Poor Edward. I don't think he'd survive.

Clockwise from top left;

Sawyer Wolff, The Snake-Oil Deacon - @anannoyanceofjackofsmiles Alex Hastings, The Vitriolic Thief - @thedeafprophet Dr. Tomas Müller, The Bandaged Thanatologist - @theunluckiestdevil (on my hands and knees apologizing, I haven't learned how to draw graying or slicked hair yet) Anne Meredeith, The Disfigured Captain - @milleart H. Reisz, The Twilight Phantom - @szilverer (sorry to put you at the bottom, the cloak made Reisz easy to recognize from the back) Emery Ender, The Well-Intentioned Thief - Me! Samuel Ashman, The Bloodstained Deacon - @shazzbaa

Happy early Valentine's Day to you all! Sorry to everyone I didn't include.
