#Snake related

[localsharkcryptid]

There's something to be said about trusting a snake not to bite versus being able to tell when they are going to bite. Sure you can trust a snake, disregard it's boundaries, poke and prod and ignore every sign till it's too late - the snake bites. You trusted the snake and harassed it, believing it wouldn't strike and defend itself from the annoyance. It tried to warn you, it tried to flee but you didn't listen but you blame the snake cause you trusted it, how could it bite you if not out of malice. Or, in an opposite light, you can pay attention to the signs, you can tread carefully and watch the snake- respect it and know the warnings, leave it alone when it wants to be free and you most likely won't get bit. Just something about pushing people and ignoring their attempts to warn you, then acting like they're the problem when you were the one who didn't pay attention, but I did and look at me, I'm the only one who isn't bitten. I'm the only one who understands.

Quickish Sketch of Gild and a Dragonbite viper, and some additional symbolism writing :]

Gild definitely develops a sort of fondness for Dragonbite vipers, finding them along the way and occasionally within the land of Las Nevadas - They take the time to move them, to learn to read them so he doesn't get bit. Dragons say he has some way with the lethal serpents, when in reality he simply knows how to read them. It's nothing special, he simply understands them and most importantly doesn't see them as inherent monsters for having a deadly bite. After all, they bite in defence, it's not the snake's fault they had to bite to protect themselves - whether the threat was real or not is irrelevant, if a dragon gets bit they most likely provoked it. Snakes don't just bite.

Anyways, yeah I am 100% using Dragonbite vipers to play with symbolism especially with Dream (CDream's name doesn't change for this au) and Gild, so expect so much of it.

Sleep a Way Out!

Thoughts/ some explanations below the cut

It's a little disappointing to me that even though Zero abducts everyone in 999 at night, none of them seem to be in their pj's. So this is what I imagine their pj's (or in some cases, clothes worn around the house) would look like.

(left to right)

Ace's boxer fit is purely vibes based. He just seems like that kinda guy.

Lotus: I tried to bring some of her girl boss energy into her pj's. I imagine she wraps her hair in silk so it doesn't get messed up at night.

Clover just seems like she would chill in an oversized cutesy onesie.

Snake: My historical fashion obsession rears its head. He's wearing a Banyan, which is a European gown/lounge wear from the 1700s based on the Kimono and possibly other Indian robes if I recall correctly. The flower on its sleeve is a Chinese Lantern plant. He's holding a chamber candle stick as well. His cap is just based on stereotypical goofy historical pjs, just for fun.

Junpei: I couldn't bring myself to remove what I saw as some of the most iconic parts of Junpei's original design so I just remixed them. Instead of a flannel shirt he's wearing flannel pajama pants and instead of "bisexual sneakers" he's wearing one bisexual slipper (the other one got lost). I was originally intending to give him a generic college or baseball tee but while I was replaying through Ai the Somnium files I spotted the 999 reference by Sunfish Pocket and thought it would be fun to give him an old Lemniscate shirt instead.

June: She has to be wearing purple. Her fashion sense seems to be very natural, with a lot of knitting and textile ornamentation which lead me to think she'd probably wear a nice, simple cotton nightgown. And the bunny slippers are a little nod to her backstory.

Santa: You know, I just get the impression that Santa sleeps in the same clothes he wears in the game. And with a build like that he's definitely getting enough sun to have some embarrassing tan-lines.

Seven: Again, kinda like Santa, I get the feeling his pajamas could be the same clothes he wears in the game. But the shower sandals are a must.

Guy 9: There just wasn't enough for me to go off of for him. So I deleted him :) Sorry. He blew up.

I think Lucy Gray is an important beginning spark in a rebellion…

But I also think Lucy Gray doesn’t really care about Panem & D12 (as a collective “country” or whatever lol)

Lucy Gray was Covey. D12/Panem wasn’t home to her and she didn’t have a connection with either—

She wanted to be free of it … not free it.

So I've recently been on a kick of assigning snakes to characters from the DSMP- and managing to make a few snake hybrid (Lamias/Nagas- idk whichever you wanna use, but half snake people) designs-

With this, due to my boredom, feel free to send me dsmp characters via asks and I'll give you a snake for them and probably some fun snake facts! This is mainly to help me get to all the characters so yeah- :D

DOL x SCP AU

Been taking a trip down memory lane lately and the best way to do that is to make a DOL x SCP AU wkwkwkw, I've loved the SCP stories and lore for years now (since I was 14 or something), so it only made sense to make this AU! I mostly just chose SCPs I really like or I think are very fitting with the characters.

For the sake of this AU, we can just assume they're all under Bailey and located in the same Site. Will be making the other LI's and PC for this AU soon 🥺🥺!! I'm thinking of adding a few other non-LI NPCs as well into the story but it's taking me a while to draw them out.

Here's my mobile wallpaper design for @bycmykae's Year of the Snake mobile calendar project. See how many snake-related motifs and representations you can find in it! *

I had WAY too many concepts in mind for this, including circuit boards, Chinese/Celtic knots, Valentine's Day (I was assigned the month of February) and Chinese calligraphy — the characters 春・逢 respectively mean "spring (the season)" and "meeting face-to-face / a chance encounter".

Thanks again to mod Lucy for this sssuper interesting project, and happy Year of the Snake too to all of you!
