"PRINCESS" HARROWHARK AND GIDEON THE UNDEFEATED... This is very fucking niche and I might be the only person that would care about this (so reblogs even more appreciated than usual) but.... Griddlehark (tlt) Malevolent (podcast) AU.............

✨✨✨

dialogue from Malevolent episode 47

•do not repost• shares appreciated • sketch, yellow version and close ups under the cut

Griddlehark malevolent AU,,, in which ¿investigator? harrow gets possessed by kiriona, a piece of an entity (can't decide if said entity is John, the King in yellow [BC of his personality and connection to Gideon], or Alecto, the Queen in yellow [BC she kinda sorta IS an elder god in tlt canon]. In whichever case the creepy yellow eyes just WORK).

only similitude between Harrow and Arthur might be the parent trauma. And the ghost/demon/possession shenanigans (they both get possessed every five minutes it's so... Funny? Sad?? Funny?). And the sword/chest plate/ knight aesthetic (Arthur just got a rapier like an episode ago!!!!)..... And the religion/god/faith issues. But still. I got obsessed with this idea and I had to draw it. You can pry this concept from my cold dead hands... If anyone GETS it please let me know, otherwise I'll just feel like I'm losing my mind......... Okay bye....

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

I really like how this one turned out the only problem is I think harrow didn't turn out looking harrow-like. Idk what it is. Something in the vibe idk.

I was using the word search function to see if anybody else had talked about a tlt/malevolent connection and I found this post which called me out greatly. And also this one.

[vanyafresita]

my silly ass: draws that one meme

[art-o-gant]

MALEVOLENT ART FROM MONTHS AGO HTAT I SOMEHOW NEVER POSTED ???

[mossssor]

Gloria Victis -> Malevolent THIS TOOK ME A WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I debated for a while between human!John and my entity design but went with human for the point of sticking closer to the reference I saw this sculpture on a trip recently and it really stuck with me so. i autismed all over it ofc. please enjoy jarthur classical art edition, vers. with a fun frame beneath cut :)

w frame because i needed to fill that space but im also iffy on it

[mx-paisley]

I just noticed I havent shared the full images of these sketches publicly well here they are !! I think they deserve to be posted

Up first is human John as Rapunzel from @teafromthemicrowave & I's Malevolent x Tangled AU !!

I know well one of you will ask why he has his dogs out 😭 it's cause rapunzel is canonically barefeet

This is a Malevolent x Howl's Moving Castle AU where Arthur is Howl, Oscar is Sophie and Calcifer is John. Uhhh idk I kinda lost interest in this AU so I hadnt made designs for Oscar and John

Yes Arthur is wearing a moth shaped coat I LOVE IT SO MUCH 💞💞

Aand this sketch i drew back in july ?? that I never finished rendering. If you're wondering, yes a redraw of my first malevolent fanart

[zarkishere]

THE SILLY CANT BE CONTAINED

Zark, you have to stop. your neurodivergence too tough. your spectrum too different. your whimsy too bad. they'll kill you Zark :

TLDR : i made an au of the au. this ain't lore important, clearly, just me being silly

HEAR ME OUT !!!

i love sm

i love rdr2 i love slime rancher i love my au

WHY NOT FUSE THEM ALL ??? (yes i am in fact losing my mind, thanks for asking)

the designs aren't perfect i know (and its not everyone) BUT i love them anyway and i've been doodling them all like crazy on my school notebooks 😭😭

they're so silly i could blow up !!

uhh--yeah i don't feel like explaining much LMAO but basically i imagine after they died they ended up in the spooky ranchers universe!

they remember everything till the point they died

so, for example, Arthur doesn't know that John killed Bill and got Javier hanged

Kieran doesn't know the whole gang fell apart (my poor boy)

Javier doesn't know John got ABSOLUTELY BLASTED

etc (yes, it's high honor Arthur and the route where Javier doesn't kill Javier)

and uhh...yeah! don't take this too seriously asghjajgh im just having fun and being silly

[koszmarnybudyn]

Sooo this was just suppose to be some sketches/ideas for an au i had thought of a while back but then it turned into this.

Also a rant about design choices:

John as a dragon has been on my mind for ages now, and today i thought of the masks as armor/scales idea, plus the deer mask because i do love me a creepy dear mask. He also has freakish human hands because i really enjoy that in my designs for him. And of course the colors are the artist that made the kiss inspired. He's a bit more cute i think, than how i usually draw him because the tendrils look more fluffy.

Arthur's a knight, in rusty armor, because he still needs to look scrappy, yes this was an excuse to give him longer hair and a beard. The creast is all messed up because well i think he used to work for a Saltzman's maybe (i think he was just a normal guy but then he married Bella and she was a noble/rich and he was kinda forced to become a knight, he was a bard before maybe, so after she died this armor's been basiclly just rotting somewhere). Theres Yorick because i enjoy him a lot. And i gave him a copper colored sword in a yellow sheath (because of course). I think he's still blind here.

Idk the plot honestly, this is mostly the rule of cool and my love of au making so hope you guys enjoy.

Yay i finally finished these!! My Arthur and human John designs!!

I also made some Oscar and Butcher designs

So I get a lot of people mentioning that they are surprised that I dress John in black and I wanted to sort of talk about my design thinking a lil bit (for the hell of it). So when I think about The King aside from the descriptions in the pod which I’ve incorporated, I considered

- How kings present themselves: incorporating details that communicate wealth, inspire reverence, show trophies or monuments to victories. While the king is a fallen king (if we are sticking to the play interpretation) I believe he would have a certain kind of regalia. I put a row of teeth around his neck from some massive creature and from his horns are hung threads adorned with trophies from the realms in which he presides. Unlike jewels or rare materials I imagine these more like items of the people whom he consumed with madness. His ‘armour’ is more minimal given that he is more influential through magic and madness then war however I did want him to have some nod to armour in the gnarled wood that forms his horned crown and pauldrons.

- His ability to influence through fear: when thinking about what might be scary to be hunted by I thought about the first thing that humans fear - the unknown. He has a mask with no face and within his cloak is only darkness manifest. His claws and body are long and his tendrils are a part of him.

Thinking of all this (in abstract terms at least) I then thought about John. When John arrives he ‘knows nothing’, he has nothing and in this way he has been stripped of all of the regalia, all the trappings of powerful terror he has as the king - all the way down to the eponymous colour of the king severed from him by circumstance. As time goes by John has also affirmed that he is who he is and that he does not want to be returned to the king.

When Yellow hits the scene Arthur gives him that name and in a way connects him to the king more directly than he ever did with John. He gave Yellow that power in giving him direction and meaning towards the king and power (in a bad way unfortunately). In a lot of mythologies words have magic, names have magic. I feel like because of this connection and because of Arthur’s choices Yellow being in a Yellow cloak made sense to me.

None of this is me saying that I’m right or that anyone else’s choices are wrong by the way, I have more favourite John’s and Arthur’s and kings than I can count in this fandom. A real warehouse of Chad John’s and Arthurs and kings I can tell you. This is just me discussing the thoughts I had around it.

Okay, y'all talked me into it, I'm checking out Malevolent. I poked around a bit, looked at some fanart, checked out an animatic or two, and decided to give it a shot. You guys really seemed to like me liveblogging the Magnus Archives/Protocol, so I'll post my thoughts as I go through this series too.

"I feel a book." "Pick it up." "What is it?" "A book." "Yes, I know it's a book." I should not have laughed so fucking hard at that.

Damn, this podcast is not afraid to use the word "Fuck."

Kind of interesting that the Entity (or John Doe as I saw he's called later on) is just as lost as Arthur. He may be some weird monster, but he's not 100% in control of the situation and he can be surprised and frustrated by things just as much as Arthur can. Hearing them get used to each other and figure out how to work together reminds me of a baby animal trying to walk on unsteady legs.

"You don't seem to remember very much." That made me snicker. Arthur can be sassy when he wants to be.

Everyone's been praising the sound design for this show and I can see why. Just a little bit of sounds tells you when Arthur's left one location and entered a new one. And you hear stuff right when he does, so you pretty much have no idea what's coming. I jumped a good number of times.

Having the main character be blind in a podcast series is so clever. Like, this would never work as a movie or a TV show because we'd see everything first. But with a podcast, we're just as blind as Arthur and that makes things so much more interesting.

I do like the premise so far. John and Arthur's banter is fun. I'm a sucker for stories where two people who don't like each other have to team up because they have to and there's that awkward period in the beginning where they're just clashing all the time, but then they get really in sync with each other later on. I'm interested to see how their relationship changes and grows.

Was going to post this yesterday to close out pride month but I ended up passing out before I could + forgot to color in Arthur’s mustache

But now it’s all fixed. I love gay people: The Podcast

Close ups and commentary

Demiromantic Arthur Lester, save me demiromantic Arthur Lester ;-;

Been feeling dysphoric for the past week or so and wanted to draw trans John to go with a fanfiction I’m currently writing. Just haven’t had the chance to write more.

I wasn’t a big fan of Oscar (mostly because I thought he had a bigger role than he had and I overhyped him up) but the more I draw him, the more I love him.

And finally, it’s the bitch, I mean the bitch, I mean the bitch, I mean-

The moment I heard her, I knew I wanted to play with an inhuman design and make her more monstrous. Had a vision of this thing with multiple arms and then I just made her a bug.

I hate her but I gave her my favorite color palette for her and her ugly children.

*mild spoilers through malevolent season 2 ! *

Take some more Arthur and John doodles I made a week back because I haven’t had time to draw anything else recently

Not too sure abt my John design yet, might experiment more with it later
