Hello, I'm still here!

I just moved again, and I wanted to share some stuff I made before I did.

So I was working on an idea for an episodic serial comic about a small polycule with mild super powers trying to live a quiet life together in an apartment in a small city--hanging out, running errands, going to work, and trying to duck the feds who want to take them away to be "studied". Just a cute slice of life thing with some spice to heighten the magic and preciousness of mundane life.

It woulda been called UNSUCOTH (Untitled Supernatural Comfort Throupple).

I didn't get far into making it, and I may never. I think I started it because I felt really sad and lost and missed my hometown. And now that I live there again, I don't really feel that motivated anymore. I just want to go outside all the time lol.

But here's the cast anyway because I love them, they're a part of me, and they may show up in later posts and projects regardless.

This is Chesah. They have psychic powers (largely Akira style, but they've always had a spiritual/emotional connection to the stars and are starting to think they can also talk to the dead). ((My notes also say they have acid blood? What??)) They work as a clerk/archivist in the filing room at a very outdated office. People leave them alone, so they get to use their powers to do their job and listen to music all day.

They are my inner goth who never got to come out.

This is Kanai. He can influence local temperature, air pressure, precipitation, plant life, animals, and kind of effectively the sun? A lowkey nature god, though he's too humble to claim the title. He splits part time as a line cook and a delivery cyclist. Really, he'd do any job where he gets to be in a group or meet new people.

He is the 90s beach dude I want to be.

And this is Briar. He's a shapeshifter who has used his powers to explore his gender and humanity, as well as extend his lifespan by hundreds of years. She does odd jobs--any relatively anonymous contract work she can get. It's safer that way of course, but he also enjoys trying new things and getting to blow in and out of people's lives like a phantasm (with the exception of Chesah and Kanai's lives--he loves them to death).

She is the metalhead I almost forgot I am.

------------

It's also worth mentioning that I had a funny little gender awakening after I started this.

Turns out I'm genderfluid! Yippee!

These three characters represent archetypes that have developed through my projects and hcs since I was 14. I always put a bit of myself into my ocs, but I put these three to paper and realized that they're much bigger chunks of me. All the stuff I'd been repressing all my life.

(Also, I should clarify that I'm a white redneck American. The ethnicities of the throupple obviously don't apply to me. They're based on other people I know or cultures I want to know more about.)

I especially looked at Briar and said to myself, "Oh, that guy really is just what I look like on the inside." So I named myself after him.

Can you do that? A reverse self-insert?

Still, all three of them have been my guides through this wacky, cool period of my life. I'm having all kinds of complicated feelings about it and am very slow in the process of exploring it as I put my new life together.

Look forward (maybe) to some kind of post about how agenderism, shapeshifting, and monster kinning factor into this. (Legitimately. I think it's really cool and I hope I can sort out my thoughts well enough to explain it.)

Anyway, thanks for reading.

Signed, BRIAR!!!

Kabocha's talent showcase for the Universe Star Pageant on twitter is....unique.

He wrestles fish as a form of fishing and he takes pride in his skill. No fish is too big or small, he'll fight them all. Totally WWE-style. He...usually does this nude but we ensured he had some swimshorts on this time.

Guided by Kanai - Kanai's Cube - A Tribute III

http://fav.me/980263208

Guarded by Chief Elder Kanai - Later called the Next Immortal King & His Greatest Treasure. With help and knowledge from Zoltan Kulle - We Nephalem became worthy of the Cube. With Kanai's Blessing he gave us the Cube.

Updated a 3rd time with multiple dozen updates improvements and more than 20+ gigs in file size.

I dedicate this art piece to the late Kevin Kanai Griffith once again.

As a candle in the wind. As a blistering cube of barbarian fury. Sat atop a pedestal  Surrounded by the Fiery Runes With hellfire from below. And Kanai guiding us to the cube.

All the love to his family and friends

I made this and it’s had me kicking and screaming for 24 hours since I created it 😂

[wrongplaceworsttime]

akiyama’s final boss fight with kanai is SO BAD it’s so bad orz

first of all there’s like 15 other normal dudes around who keep fucking up my targeting and also grab me, and then kanai just has the shittiest knife combos which i can’t block cause it’s a KNIFE

i didn’t remember to stock up on healing items before starting the final chapter, so i have mediocre healing options that i’ve almost exhausted and i still haven’t even removed one bar of damage

Kanai Idol, item plundered from a noble's home in Kellabor sometime during the Sorian Wars, dated to the early 2nd Age. From the Lapri History Museum Collection.

Ancient artifacts depicting Kanai are extremely rare, for reasons unknown.

❈

The reason isn’t unknown to me, hehe. History Lesson Time!

Right after the Event (that time all the starving Kanai went nuts and started eating everyone) terrified Kellabornians went about destroying any and all depictions of Kanai they could get their hands on, out of a fear that hungry Kanai might be able to see and find them through the eyes of such likenesses. It was a scary time to be a human in Kellabor, you can’t really blame them. Once everything settled down and Kanai stopped being so Like That, people felt less frightened by drawings/statues/etc of Kanai, though other superstitions persisted, such as the idea that Kanai were drawn to whisperings of their name or secrets.
