Selkie au

One thing that The celestial  dragons like to do to selkies (aside from eating them) is forcing them to eat devil fruit and agonize about not being able to swim.

Celestial dragons do do that, but sometimes they just want the selkies for their skin. The problem is that proper selkie leather isnt just the pelt Selkies keep to switch between forms, it's the human skin underneath too.

Maw Fiend!

I've had the idea to make a chainsaw man OC cosplay for eons and I finally got around to it. based on the fear of maws/mouths, they have a goofy personality but would not hesitate to eat you if given the legal opportunity.

⚠️ Content Warning: Gore

The amount of times I've said the phrase, "Nick Gets His Body 3D Printed by a Tree" has to be annoying by now. But yeah, there's vines up in his chest cavity.

This is still the werewolf au btw

He's sleeping, he's fine.

Moss Impulse, please?

I need you to know I have spent my entire morning making sure he was perfect. Because you combined my most drawn Hermit and my second most drawn Hermit. Will say I did go overboard he is more than just moss but...it works I'd say.

My first attempt at writing that's vaguely like poetry: from a dragon

I am not what you think.

I walk around, awkward limbs and flighty mannerisms, and you think I’m strange. You have no idea how strange you would think I am if you only saw what was underneath.

Underneath, I am a creature of the ocean. Something that could never pass as human, and no longer wants to. Saltwater rushes through my veins in secret, silent to everyone but me. To me, it’s a roaring sound of the waves that I have never seen except for within my soul. It yearns to dissolve into the ocean like it could long ago, but for now those days are over and I am hidden underneath skin and muscle.

Underneath, there are wings; fins; antlers. They ache to tear from my back, through my skull. Nonetheless, they stay hidden for me, safe in the silence. Protected like I protected my kin in a lifetime so close to the surface and yet unreachable. Wrapped in a form that no longer coils around them like a serpent, but keeps them hidden from predators well enough I suppose.

I suppose.

I accept my form reluctantly and do what I can to make it mine. I shape it to feel better when I discover my gender, and when I can’t shape it to fit my true self I cover it in things that feel a little more like home. A little more draconic. A little more like the ocean that I never have seen, but feel homesick for anyway.

I do find joy in being in this body, at least. Out there, there are others. Angels working minimum wage, dragons sitting on a park bench, wolves buying groceries. We hide, but we do so to be free. We walk through crowds, and no one notices our scales and fur and feathers. But we do. We see each other, even if from miles away, and we see what’s underneath.

And underneath, none of us are what you think.

Been watching Haunting of Bly Manor. Absolutely obsessed with the concept of someone who’s such a stubborn, controlling force of nature that they effectively refuse the call of the great beyond after death and refuse to move on and let the living go about their business in peace, simply through sheer force of will.

Ozai died at some point, but he didn’t leave. Why would he? He’s the Fire Lord, after all, no matter what history says about him. As time passes and his own perception and memories of his mortal life twist and fade, he starts to look more and more…wrong. Even if he tries to hide it sometimes, it’s an act that drops quickly.

Korra is this close to becoming a professional exorcist.

my week 3 oneshot for scrybruary has been up for a couple weeks now, and i'm overdue in posting about it! this one was for the theme "day in the life/mundane", so of course i wrote about death p03 taking magick leshy to the backrooms

The oneshot, Just Your Average Afternoon, is as you would expect quite a bit sillier than the two before it: Under an orange moon…Leshy is spending the afternoon at the dilapidated shopping center that serves as the Temple of P03, Scrybe of the Dead. When the possessed collection of decayed remains and analogue machinery shows Leshy a broken texture in the floor that leads to an infinite maze of yellowed rooms, the Scrybe of Magicks is equal parts shocked and intrigued. But perhaps, on a possibly haunted disk rife with sentient characters and poor programming, such a phenomenon isn't quite as unprecedented as one might assume.

you can read the oneshot right here! i put on a lot of analogue horror video essays while i work so it was a lot of fun to play around with some of those tropes and references in this chapter haha

Vague spoilers for season 2 of the horror podcast The Patient Files. It was fun to experiment with some crazy colors for this piece. ^^

ID: A 4 panel digitally drawn horror comic depicting, in order: a shadowy figure pressed against a door's window at the end of a long hallway, a closeup of the figure staring directly ahead, a small child on the other end of the hall with a vaguely eerie silhouette behind them, and an extreme close up of a pair of terrified eyes reflecting back the figure in both of them. White hand-printed text in each panel reads: I had a nightmare twenty years ago... of something tall and shadowy, waiting for me at the end of the hall. And sometimes, I worry... I still haven't woken up. End ID]
