“Transported to (a version of wondergotten new name still pending) ripped apart from the actual Nitro back in the arcade, now this part of Nitro (now called Encroached) now the holder of “The Death” tarot card. His body is rapidly deteriorating ever since getting here he needs a new body to host…”

“Red the Dragon, the one who stood by Encroach’s side even perishing with him… Offered their body to Encroach to take over to avoid melting completely…”

"hurt no comfort" vs "fluff"/all comfort, no hurt?

You are proof of a cruel and uncaring god.

Ngh. The thing about hurt-no-comfort is that I love it, but I think a lot of hurt-no-comfort suffers from the presence of an aggressor/whumper, who almost invariably get written in a way that puts me off the story because I'm sorry this is just not how someone who gets off on the pain of their victim acts.

Meanwhile fluff can and does often support characterisation that is interesting enough to make up for how disinteresting the things that are going on are. Some characters, I could listen to them talk about the weather, y'know?

Remember my last post? Well, I blame this drawing for making me quit art for a while. No matter what I did, the coloring turned out god awful. It still is, I'm unhappy with how it turned out, and I want to move on. Happy Valentines.

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON 2.04 The Red Dragon and the Gold

Never gonna get over how the anime made this scene just so,, haunting and elevated. Like I love the manga but I love how the anime has taken these scenes and elevated the themes of death and rebirth with simple shots like this and it’s why even after reading all of the manga I still get excited for the anime because I *know* the anime will not only be a faithful adaptation, but also an artistic masterpiece as it uses the medium to its advantage

My favourite bit of BG3 lore is that Withers is legitimately responsible for the Dead Three, but he's probably too embarrassed to tell you, so every time you ask him to elaborate he just gives you a very stern, "Noooo."

I also love that the reason he's responsible for their uprising is because he got bored. He literally got bored of his position as Lord of the Dead and wanted to retire, so when these three morally questionable humans came looking for godhood he was like, "Hmmm. Yes, okay. Here. Take my portfolios. Fight over them. I don't care. I quit."

So after bowling with skulls in a friendly competition to decide who would get what portfolio, they took up his powers and wreaked havoc on the world. Only at that moment did Jergal, AKA Withers, AKA our precious Bone Daddy think, "I'm just now, internally, asking myself, in quite a worried way, whether I might've made an error."

So he joins your merry band and watches your escapades, calmly twiddling his fingers while you clean up his mess. He's happy to lend his aid, even to the point that he'll bring Durge back to life if they reject Bhaal, even though he technically shouldn't. But he's Withers. The rules don't apply to him. If Ao doesn't like it, he can descend from the Heavens and say it to his rotting face.

And the reason he saves Durge isn't necessarily because he likes them or because he's a morally good entity (though one certainly could make that argument), but because he wants to add insult to injury. He steals Bhaal's child with a big smile on his face, dubs them his Chosen, and praises them for rejecting all the power they were promised. But of course, he still doesn't tell them who he is—or rather who he was.

Then, when all is said and done, he throws Tav and their companions a cute little party. No one knows it's probably half a thank you party and half a "Withers is bored again" party. And if anyone misbehaves, he'll get irritated and whisk them away. Because how dare they? He put a lot of work into that.

And at the end of it all, he walks up to a mural of the Dead Three and basically goes, "Lmao. Thou didst fuck around, and thou didst find out." Just savagely roasting them.

And then poof!

He waves them into non-existence.

Thank u all sosososo much for all the love on my drawing of Red!! Here is another little doodle of him, just for you 😘

Some little infos since people have been asking: yes, he can fly and move his tail! His wheelchair is super light so it doesn't weigh him down, though he usually only flies for short differences. I keep oscillating between making him the size of a St Bernard or bigger, like 4 feet from the ground to his shoulders... I haven't decided that yet 😅

Again tysmmmmmm for all the love and kind words 💖🥰🥰🥰 it's my first time really interacting w the furry community so it's so nice that I'm getting such a warm welcome :')))

also if anyone has any good tips on how to draw paws/claws please send them my way 😵‍💫

I know it isn't what happened in your dragon riders au, but your art and posts got me considering the au and the idea that, instead of an assassination attempt, Jason is kidnapped and presumed dead. The mad tyrant took him in an attack on Gotham (or maybe found him somewhere else) and threw him in Red's cage/cave to be killed and food for Red. Somehow he doesn't die right away, and it is there that Jason bonds with Red and escapes. Sort of taking on the story of the Arkham Knight version of him, with capture/imprisonment only to be rescued by an unlikely and dangerous ally (Red).

The first part is exactly what happened. Only that the room he was taken from got burnt to cinders and they all assumed the corpse they found there must have been Jason’s 👀

Awe but the idea of him getting thrown in Red’s cage is kind of sweet ngl. Huge and scary dragon? Check. But Jason is just so pissed at the world at large that he just screams at her in a last bid to make himself feel better about his impending doom and Red is like—- “who is this sassy child and who does he belong to? Ah, never mind. He’s mine now. Hi baby!”

2, 8, and 10 for Impactor? :D

What is their grooming routine?

So I don't really think about humanformers enough to construct the whole routine in my head, but I do know that Impactor prefers being clean-shaven. Problem is, that's not sufficiently rugged for his reputation, and besides being too clean-shaven is jackboot behaviour, so he shaves in a calculatedly shitty way at exactly the interval where he can tolerate the fuzz.

Describe the place where they sleep.

Looks sparse largely because most people don't know what to look for, b/c a lot of the seemingly-random junk he owns gets its significance from where he acquired it. He has a suspiciously huge work desk and toolbox for a guy who does jack shit on his free time. You also won't find a lot of creature comforts, half the time he's sleeping at said suspiciously huge desk or the carpet rather than the bed, which he owns mostly so he can bring people over and seem like a normal person.

What objects do they always carry around with them?

Carabiner queer who can mysteriously summon tools and weapons from the pocket dimension inside his clothes. The only reason he doesn't have a reputation about it is because he never volunteers to help people with shit, he'll be cursing at his own problems and then pull an Allen set seemingly out of his ass, causing everyone to go "you had that the entire time???"
