#Cryptid AU

[ghostlyglimmer]

Doodled my boy, my son, my little ghoul man. Anyway wanted to doodle my Phantom!

Gotta love them Vivisection/Disection scars. 10/10 always peak design when they’re there imo.

Sometimes I imagine this AU where Danny just showed up out of nowhere and he becomes a bit of a town cryptid, and one day, people see him arguing with this huge eldritch horror thing with time symbols and such, and this boy isn’t backing down. Keep in mind, he’s like half the size of this thing’s pinky finger.

Or he does this in front of the Links, both scenarios are great.

Eldritch Clockwork: I just didn’t want to see you get hurt, okay? That guy could’ve killed you! I know you think you’re tough, but you are fucking five feet tall!

Danny: I am five-foot-two!!

Everyone else: ‘WTF???’

Barry was hungry. Normally this wouldn’t be a problem, as he could just grab some snacks from the kitchen, but he was watching a movie, and he was comfy. He really, really didn’t want to try and wriggle back to where he was now

“Phantom?” he called out hopefully.

A white glove emerged from the wall behind him, dropping an unopened bag of chips on top of his head. When Barry reached up to grab it, he saw that it was salt and vinegar, which explained why it was still uneaten. Phantom seemed to refuse those chips under all circumstances.

Barry didn’t really get it, because salt and vinegar was awesome, but that didn’t really matter. The point was, Phantom was a great person, even if he probably wasn’t human, and it didn’t matter if Barry hadn’t ever actually seen more of him than his arm, and he had told Barry his name by leaving a piece of paper on a table when he turned his back for three seconds after asking if there was a name for the ‘friend in the walls’, as Wally had called him.

“Thanks, Phantom!” The hand stuck itself out the wall again, forming a thumbs up.

Diana had found a bit of a problem. It wasn’t a big one, and was honestly more of an annoyance than anything, but her paper copy of Earth’s current standing with all known alien civilization was missing. She could get access to it again in a few hours, once the security upgrade to their computers was finished, but she had been intending to review it for a few weeks now and could use the extra time. 

An idea came to her suddenly, and Diana quietly asked, “Phantom? Are you here?” In answer, a chilly breeze blew through her hair. He was, then. “By any chance, would you happen to have seen my copy of th-” Interrupting her, the very papers she was looking for appeared out of nowhere on her desk. A green sticky note was stuck to it, reading ‘This? Sorry for taking it, but it was really interesting’

Diana smiled, hopefully in the ghosts direction. “Yes, that. If you want, I could see if I could get you your own copy?” Another green sticky note appeared on top of the first, this one just oozing the feeling of happiness. ‘YES PLEASE!!!’

***** ***** *****

Bruce… didn’t really know what to do about the teenager floating just outside the Watchtower. He looked like Phantom, from the few times anyone had actually seen the ghost, and he appeared to be enjoying himself in the vacuum outside instead of dying painfully, which was another point of evidence for that theory. Unsure of what else he could do, he knocked on the window on the off chance that he could get Phantom’s attention that way.

The ghost immediately vanished from view, and a strong, freezing cold breze blew in from the direction of the window Phantom had been outside. Bruce shivered violently from the unexpected chill.

Next time he would leave Phantom alone. Being out in space seemed to make him happy, and it was best not ruin that.

(inspired by Puppetmaster13u's Cryptid AU, please check it out, it's amazing)

(formating inspired by Wonderjanga since i'm extremely new to Tumblr and tought it looked neat)

Inside Fawcett city, creatures of any kind were welcomed and seen as normal. An walking, talking, crocodile? Yeah, that's just Peter. A minotaur sharing a lemonade with an vampire? That's just Jeff and Jasmine.

Captain Marvel, the city's hero, though, seemed human. (or Kryptonian.. but there are records of kryptonite being thrown at him and him being fine if not confused)

Now, imagine if Billy (and thus, Captain Marvel) were cryptids who use magic to make an illusion to fool others into thinking he's more human-like, in an effort to appear less threatening, scary or weird.

His cape? That's his wings. When up in the air, the illusion magic makes them look like they're floating, but they're actually beating to make sure Marvel stays up in the air. When not in use, they fold in his back to appear more like well.. an cape.

When he joins the Justice league, he's oblivious to the gossip mill his teammates created.

Hal: “Dude, i'm telling you, he's not human.”

Barry: “What else could he be, then? Like, it's a given he's at least some type of meta, but what exactly? Kryptonian? An regular human with powers that can rival superman's?”

Diana: (a bit distracted, not paying full attention to the gossip) “My guess would be that he has some connection to the greek gods. He does mention them often. Maybe he's an demi-god himself?”

Hal: (shocked) “You CANNOT just drop that into the conversation and not elaborate.”

//

Oliver: (a bit annoyed) “Batman, could you please tell Robin to keep his pets out of the watchtower? There are feathers everywhere!”

Bruce: “Hmm? I can't see how Robin could have sneaked into the watchtower any kind of bird without me knowing. Could you show me one of the feathers so i could ask him about it?”

(Oliver gets up, a big, white and golden feather in hands, and gives it to Batman)

Bruce: (looking the feather over, thinking how this is too big to have been from one of Damian's chickens or parakeets) “...”

(Marvel, who happened to be passing by, sees the feathers all scattered about, with Batman with one in hand, immediatly gets embarrased about how he forgot the illusion spell breaks when he transforms back into Billy, and thus leaves the feathers behind) “Hey.. sorry, those are mine. I'll clean them up.”

Oliver: “What do you m-”

(Both Oliver and Bruce look over, Oliver obviously very confused)

Oliver: “You own a bird and let it loose on the watchtower?”

Marvel: “Oh, no, no, those are mine. Like.. mine mine.”

(Billy breaks the spell, the illusion going off instantly)

Oliver: "OH! oh, i see what you mean.”

//

Hal: “So, he's an.. bird-like humanoid and uses an spell to look like what we're used to seeing him as?”

Oliver: “From what i saw, yeah, pretty much.”

Barry: “...i owe Cyborg 10 dollars.”

Hal: (sighing) “Same.”

May I kindly request some DDMAU Skizz and Impulse or Chained Life! Skizzpulse?

You asked for it!! Time to introduce Skizz and Impulse into DDMAU!!!!

Skizz is a human and Impulse is a demon. I think it’d be safe to say that every human I introduce can see through the veil unless stated otherwise.

They live together hehe. Married maybe.

They run a podcast together where they host guests(most of the time they’re monsters but there are some human guests(seeing through the veil is just really rare))and have convos about their life experiences and such. It only reaches other monsters because of the weird worldwide magical censorship lol.

POV: apparently it’s being your kid to work day.

Gordon was NOT prepared for the creature he started working with to have a kid, much less bring them to the stakeout.

(Saw folks doing cute Robin and Batman art with this general pose, so of course I had to include my Cryptid bois!)

(Robin kept getting out and running around, so Batman was forced to use other means of containing his feral son.)

(Inspired by this post)

(and also this post)

Cryptid Medic redesign

It's only a slight redesign. But I'm still happy I made it. He is supposed to look like the cliché of an average insane guy in a mental hospital (like in the movie,you know the ones), yes, but I still tried to incorporate cool little details to make him stand out while making sens in the story.

The only thing is that I made him a bit too thin. He would be thinner than in the game obviously but not that thin.

(Cryptid AU link)

Here is a bloody version (TW i guess) vvv

its ridonculing time i think

The Cryptid Couple

old doodles I cleaned up a bit

it is wild that military propaganda has made me ship the Loch Ness Monster with Mothman, like I know being a CoD fanartist wasn’t on the bingo card like. at all so this certainly wasn’t something I expected to happen lmao (not that I’m complaining, I’m having a blast)

[hugsandchaos]

Tucker: Are you sure this’ll work?

Sam, looking in the mirror: Yeah, now get ready to turn off the light.

Tucker: Alright. *puts his hand on the switch and looks in the mirror*

Both: Space, space, space.

Tucker: *turns the light off*

Tucker: *turns it back on*

Both: AAAAHH!!!

Phantom: You want to talk about space?

[weshney]

Someone. Please. This would be so interesting for Danny.
