@girlygo2 fanfic “A Beard That Matches The Monster’s Fur” spoilers under the cut

You ever read a fanfic that just

Makes you fucking

SOB??

Like in a positive way

I found this WilWes fic on AO3

“A Beard That Matches The Monster’s Fur” look it up /lh

IT’S SO FUCKING GOOD UGGHHH /POS

It was the first DS fic I had seen that went over how homosexuality was treated in the 1900s which I thought was really cool. I also LOOOOVED the romantic tension with Wilson and Wes; denying their feelings for one another bc of how they were taught homosexuality was wrong

Like Wilson fucking denies that he has feelings for Wes bc of his internalized homophobia and I’m just like “BITCH PLEEEASE JUST TELL HIM YOU LOVE HIM FUUUUCK IT’S NORMAL TO LIKE MEN IF YOU’RE A MAN PLEEEEEASE” /nm

ALSO

THIS SHIT??? /POS

THIS SHIT MADE ME FUCKING SOOOOOOOOB /POS

LIKE I DEADASS JUST STARTED CRYING /POS

ALSO AGAIN-

MOTHERFUCKER

WHAT

“I don’t understand why I’m like this” BROOOO WHYYYYY /NM

IT’S OKAY TO BE GAY MY GUY BE GAY DO CRIME

Also, a message to the author: I FUCKING LOVE YOUR ARRRRT IT’S SO GOOOOOOD!! You can draw werewolves and stuff so FUCKING well it’s crazy to me /lh

Random thoughts abt the fic I’ve had:

I think it’d be cool if Wes could ride Retorateras like a Beefalo

Brooo what if Retorateras is a metaphor for Wilson’s internalized homophobia- /hj

Imagine Wes asks Wilson to make the same concoction Wilson made to turn himself into Retorateras bc Wes feels bad for Wilson and doesn’t want him to suffer alone- *coughs* huh what the fuck who said that

A gift fic I wrote recently!! I haven't been writing a lot recently BUT here's something. It's for girlygo2, who's written a lovely fic series that you'll find linked to this fic. Anyway, hope you enjoy!

It was easier than usual for Wes to find something substantial for Retorateras to eat than he thought it would be. Despite the day's chill, it seemed that a group of pigs and merms had gotten into a scuffle, and meat had been left behind in their wake. Although the mime wouldn't want to admit it, he was relieved that it was so easy to find something. Sure, Retorateras wouldn't hurt him, Wilson wouldn't hurt him. But as they've already found out, the other survivors didn't have the same luxury, especially if they did something Wes hadn't seen. But, he decides not to let it bother him, as the beast finishes up with the meat and finally discards the bone. What that usually meant, was that his stomach was full, and that he would be searching for a place to rest.

Alongside that, it meant Wes didn't need to keep watching, or following him around. Usually, Retorateras would just saunter away to find a nice place to sleep on his own, but this time he was looking at Wes for a long while, not moving. This was new, and this gave him equal curiosity and nervousness. The question of what he was staring for is answered soon enough though, as the beast approaches, taking Wes' hand, sniffing it, then trying to tug on it a bit with his mouth. There was no pain in the gesture, which probably meant that it was just to try and take him somewhere. So, he was being taken somewhere? He puts up his other hand, in a gesture of surrender before his arm was accidentally ripped off.

The walk through the snow isn't so long, though the wind seeping down to Wes' bones made it feel longer than it was. Along the way, Retorateras would often look back, or even brush along the mime's side for a moment. Though he didn't really know what this meant, it put him at ease for some reason, as though he was being looked after even if it wasn't quite necessary.

They make their way to a large burrow in the midst of an evergreen's roots, or maybe it was a piece of land hollowed out by a lightning strike. Either way, it seemed big enough to accommodate the creature, with a good bit of wiggle room to spare. Was this what he had wanted to show Wes? Without any comfort in asking, and without any way for Retorateras to respond, the latter simply lumbers into the makeshift shelter and takes a seat with a low sigh. Wes is given an expectant look, as the other seems to be waiting for him to join. It feels a bit forward, and Wes couldn't stop a redness from forming in his cheeks.

Despite that, he didn't have the urge to say no, the walk back to camp seeming cold and unforgiving. The sun was setting, too, and while he did have a few torches on hand, it wouldn't be enough to stave off the night's chill. He's sure the others wouldn't mind if he were to be gone for a night, either. As long as he picked up the slack, the others were usually a forgiving bunch.

Despite himself, despite knowing this should feel like wrong, Wes moves into the burrow, and lays down facing Retorateras. While the two aren't touching, he can feel the warmth surrounding them. It's almost magical, how small spaces can exchange heat so easily. This would surely work as a place to sleep tonight, but the beast seemed to have other plans than just remaining in each other's vicinity. Instead, he pulls Wes closer, to the point where the two are touching. The red in the mime's cheeks persists further, though it's not like he minds how close they are. It's strange, to feel protected by someone that could easily devour him if it wished. Though, he still feels comfortable, like none of the monsters of this realm could find him here. This must have been why he had showed him this place, so they could be close like this.

He's never realized how soft Retorateras was. They had brushed against each other, one time or another, but somehow he hadn't noticed or even predicted how it would feel. It's a similar feeling to that of a rabbit, but much thicker. Wes snuggles closer to his companion, the hollow's warmth beginning to lull him toward sleep. He can feel the rhythm of Retorateras' heartbeat, slow but steady. It's breathing, too, is slow but rhythmic. There are so many things that he could worry about besides that, but instead of something like that, he falls asleep easy, a murmur of "Je t'aime, Wilson..." coming from him in that half-asleep stupor.

Whatever happened outside this place wasn't important. It could wait until morning.

[girlygo2]

The beginning of my Retorateras AU... Sort of. It would start earlier than that, but... I wanted to draw the good stuff right away!!

Okay, so FOR CONTEXT:

Wilson had been trying to design a medicine to... Well, this is what he said: "I wanted make the body stronger. Refine it so it can be in its absolute prime. To be the perfect version of yourself. I also wanted to be able to shift in and out of this form at will."

Though, his tests had only been preformed on animals. Primarily rats or rabbits. He'd seen them grow two to three times their original size, bigger stronger teeth, more prominent claws, powerful muscles and refined eyesight. He thought it was perfect.

Yet, with no human being but himself to test it on, he reluctantly took a dosage of the medicine for himself.

He would soon come to realize that he was only enhancing animalistic traits, not human ones. He had just 'enhanced' himself to be an animal. Nay, a monster.

Introducing... The new main cover art for Retorateras as a whole!!

Really proud of this one! I tried my best to mimic the DS style again.

(first time seeing this? Interested in what Retorateras is? Here's the fanfiction!)

[retoraterasnews]

Here's a doodle depicting one of the scenes from the most recent chapter. A small bit of an awkward moment, but... not... terribly unwelcome.

[girlygo2]

Little doodle for Starvetober: 13, Soft

I've been busy so I didn't get to do this sooner. I would have done more, but agin- I'm busy CRIES

so enjoy!! Retorateras is SUPER SOFT so.. that works!!

[girlygo2]

Wilson doodles!!! The second doodle sheet (where wilson has the white bolt on his hair) is for my "Retorateras" AU that I'm very passionate about. (I'll post about it in a minute) I drew that May 1st. (the Wickerbottom there isnt related at all)

The first set of doodles, with a big unrelated scaly tail on the left, are just some Wilsons from April 20th.

[girlygo2]

A reference sheet for our big lovely beast, Wilson! I posted this on twitter a while back, but since it doesn't fucking let users without an account view anything, (UGH.) I decided to post it here for other ways of discovery!

[girlygo2]

"Valiant Malice"

In but moments, the man was gone, and a monster replaced him. In but heartbeats, one stopped as its blood was spilled, and another raced with fear.

A third snarled for more.

I'm very VERY HAPPY WITH THIS ONE!! I love the background!!

so anyways this came from me wanting to draw some "scary art of the Retorateras" just... because... I wanted to show that this thing isn't all fuzz and cuddles- There's a reason Wilson was so terrified of it.

Some music to fit too, maybe?

[retoraterasnews]

Retorateras doodles from a Whiteboard! A friend joined me but I'm not about to post their art because it's not mine haha

I feel a little bad for neglecting to make it clear in his ref sheet that the beast has a bit of a belly- Not as much as I drew it in the first one, but he's not exactly thin- nor plump.

[retoraterasnews]

AFTER A MONTH LONG WAIT, 'WHAT MAKES YOU WHOLE' IS FINALLY POSTED!!

READ IT HERE!! RIGHT NOW!!

FIFTEEN THOUSAND WORDS I SAY. PLEASE ENJOY, I SAY!!! THIS IS A BIG ONE!! It's emotional, it's violent, it's ESPECIALLY GAY, and READY TO BE READ!!!!!
