HOWDY'S HOLIDAY HULLABALOO!

[za0mbie]

The best I can provide reference-wise for betty as of now!! Including,, The pillar women,, I am so fruity for them,,,

[teachyouhowtodothesponge]

This was mainly an excuse to draw the wheely worm! :) 🐛

🐛The Pillar Family!🦋

Oh I’m so happy I got to draw these colorful worms! I figure Hiya and Biya have more kiddos than just Seeya, Latter, and Howdyadoo, but i decided to just draw who we’ve seen so far. I’m guessing Howdy is younger than Seeya and Latter considering he ain’t a butterfly yet during the Holiday Hullabaloo, so that’s why he’s a baby bean in this drawing! I also went for a 1950s style in terms of clothes and posing and I think it turned out pretty cute 🐛

Edit: I was kindly informed that Howdy mentions Seeya specifically as his little sister! Oops! Well, I think we all needed some baby Howdy regardless haha

Can ya Draw Hiya and Seeya as smol Beans too like ya did with Latter? If ya don’t mind (Take your time with it if ya do draw them like that as I know art takes a while) also I love your art SM :) and I like your Bean AU a LOT

I'll do Seeya later. She's an egg for now

I'm glad you like them💚🩵

I have the smallest crumb of a theory. But what if howdy is mean to Latter because he’s self-conscious of being the only caterpillar (and repressed) and takes it out on his brother as a consequence. Because social expectations at the time gave him an excuse to do so?

no. ok. hoo boy. Allow Me To Be Insane Over The Most Prominent Thought I've Had Since Seeing The Update (about howdy)

i will try to be as eloquent and articulate as possible. ahem:

THAT FRUITY ASS CATERPILLAR IS REPRESSED AS FUCK, ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? DID YOU SEE THAT SHIT?? MY GOD. HOMEBOY HAS ISSUES STACKED ON ISSUES. GET HIM SOME THERAPY.

ok. ok ok ok. Now allow me to be articulate and eloquent

so obviously Howdy is almost certainly queer in the men-loving flavor. if i'm wrong about this my confidence will never recover. But I'm Willing To Take That Chance. so he's definitely queer, right? his.. well his everything points to it, but the final nail in the coffin are his rainbow suspenders from the group Homewarming artwork from Eddie's prolonged breakdown.

but this update i think showed us deeper into that part of him. and i take the shipping goggles off for genuine analysis, so when i say this i believe that there is Serious Evidence and seems Genuinely Plausible - if Howdy doesn't have feelings for Barnaby, i'll eat my cat.

the above is important to say because it Directly ties in to how Howdy treats Latter AND Eddie.

so. Howdy is likely gay or bi, what have you. i'm guessing gay. he obviously has feelings for Barnaby. SO WHAT I'M SAYING IS that i don't think Howdy treats Latter the way he does because of the caterpillar thing, I think Howdy treats Latter the way he does because Latter is genuine and Howdy is not.

what does this have to do with Eddie? well. look at Latter and Eddie in relation to each other. they're both... how do i say... Open. and not - not effeminate, but yes, for lack of of a better word, effeminate. just enough to make one go "huh." and Howdy treats them the same way - dismissive, apathetic, one could even say avoidant.

i wouldn't be shocked if Howdy picked up on their queerness (and if Latter isn't queer, his comfort with himself / his behavior & interests) and is on the defensive about it - likely subconsciously.

and with Latter specifically. Howdy could have also picked up on the way his other family members treat him if they're all also dismissive - as Seeya seems to be as well. i mean, it fits right in line with the time period! homophobia - internalized in Howdy's case (again, most likely). the blatant favoritism, the dismissive nature, it all adds up. even if no one outright knows, that subconscious recognition (or outright suspicion!) will do this

i mean, Latter makes me think of two things. 1) being the only queer kid in a family (especially large). 2) being a middle child. there was a third but i forgor. it felt important! it's gone now! anyway it's also Super telling comparing how Howdy treats Latter (emotional, earnest, open) to how he treats Beeya (oozing stereotypical masculinity)

tl;dr so i don't think it's really "expectations giving Howdy an excuse" as it is "subconscious / internalized homophobia causes Howdy to act the way he does"

as always, take all this with a Hefty grain of salt!

Liking Merlin isn’t a personality trait.

OH YEAH? WELL LOOK AT MY YEARBOOK LEAVING QUOTE FROM OVER 10 YEARS AGO

LIKING MERLIN IS VERY MUCH MY ENTIRE PERSONALITY AND IM FINE WITH THAT YOU ROTTEN CRABAPPLE

[jacenotjason]

Hii!! I know you aren't that into welcome home anymore, but I can't help but wonder if the Eddie and the single pea incident happened in the opposite au?

I'm still into Welcome Home, i find myself thinking about it in the same intensity it used to be, but only for a few minutes.

and... maybe :)

I talk about it a lot more over in discord! Even though I'm not super active about it here, it's easier for me to share my fleeting thoughts in the discord then on Tumblr, so there's more food in there.

For example, I've been sort of losing my mind over an Opposite version of Howdy's family. Here's a sneak peak!!

Aight bois guess what time it is. That’s right it’s time for some Corpse Puppet art! (˵ •̀ ᴗ •́ ˵) ✧

Father’s Day

2 hours late but here is my finished picture for Father’s Day, featuring Howdy Pillar, his dad Biya Pillar, and my Bellflower and Howdy first born sons Caidan and Milkweed Pillar-Bat. Pictured here the boys are not even a month old yet and as you can see the two looked a like as very young babies and only as the months progress do they start showing differences in their looks. Also I did my best to make Howdy look sleep deprived, not just from taking care of twin bat-pillars but also running the Bugdega and getting everything ready for his parents visit for Father’s Day. Biya is the best dad Howdy could ask for, being so help and supporting his son and keeping his two newest grandsons content. Hiya is the one taking the picture of these four while Bellflower is next to her, waiting for the photos to be done so she can get Howdy’s workaholic behind to bed so he can rest while she, Hiya and Biya take care of Caddy and Milkweed and just chat, while also making sure everybody in the neighborhood gets everything they need from the sweetest store. Hope I did these four justice in their looks and poses, I did not know what to do with all those arms Biya and Howdy have, I did my best so please be kind in your critics. Hope everyone had a lovely Father’s Day if you celebrated it with your father/father figures in your lives.

Biya and Howdy Pillar are @partycoffin (Hiya too)

Bellflower, Caidan and Milkeed are mine 💜

beaglepillar heavy comic i’m working on…… what if barnaby meets howdy’s family and he introduces barn as his Boyfriend…. WHAT IF….

[punny-buddy-barnaby]

Heyyyyy buddddddddyyyyyyy- what do ya think of howdy’s family?

Well uh...give me a second to pull out the list- I currently only have a quarter of a wiggle but I can tell you what I got-

So uh, we'll start with...Hiya!

Hiya is a very sweet woman, I think she's the kindest bug I've met! I mean, other than howdy but he can be a bit pushy with his sales- plus she makes the best food I've ever tasted! And she ain't ever broke the spaghetti! Still mad at someone for doing that- not supposed to break it-

Biya is nice too but I don't know him as well, I heard he's a clumsy fellow- kind of reminds me a mailman I know!

Aunt Toodaloo is nice and all but I do t like her all too much- she keeps asking howdy when he'll sell his shop and it just irks me, really just irks me. Other than that she's a sweet Lady!

Uncle Adieu is uh....I have no clue what that man is saying!!- plus there was....the incident- no one will believe me but I swear to you he said, in perfect English, said "no one will believe you" when everyone went outside!!!-

Cousin Skedaddle is really nice! Me and him get along! We smoke cigarettes together sometimes! Other than that we uh...we don't got much in common

Oh and Seeya is just a sweetheart, really takes after her mother in that sense, she's wonderful! Absolutely wonderful! She helped me get out of a hole I accidentally dug myself into-

Beeya is great to, really great guy to just mellow out with, he is so calm all of the time! Though I wish him and Seeya wouldn't drop their kids off everywhere, but it's fine, I lover those two trouble makers! Speaking of which!

Howdo and Youdo are the funniest trouble makers I know!! I got them to prank Frank once and it was a holler!! We was on our backs laughing, it was so fun!

And than there's Gam Gam Sally Tations, I don't think she likes me very much- she hits me with the news paper Everytime I come around, I think she hates me infact- she calls me "dumb dog"-

Now, don't tell Howdy- but I did save the best for last!

Honestly Latter is my favorite out of the entire family! Sure his poems are sad and feel dreadful, but they're nicely done I think! Everyone else calls me tone deaf cause of it but I know when I like something! And I quite like Latter, he's really nice!
