WereMolly is on the prowl!! She isnt really running from anything, she just found a pretty butterfly! Maybe she should slow down a bit...

[tornrose24]

More TGAMM werewolf au doodles, featuring some funny stuff, angst, and FINALLY some sort of reveal of the werewolf that bit Scratch/Todd.

-Had this idea of Molly and Libby needing to get into Andrea's good graces for a bit and then gaining some form of entry in order to have access to her home since there's a library that might have something on how to reverse a werewolf curse. And of course, Libby needed to be in disguise (and is disguised as a kappa for an obvious reason).

-They ended up stealing the book, due to shenanigans.

–Which leads to the reveal of there being only two ways to undo the curse, which invites a lot of angst for those involved.

–Ok.... so Ollie's dad has been tracking a specific werewolf that was targeting the midwest a few years back, and estimates that it might be coming back very soon. All he could gain for his efforts was one photo. However, this particular werewolf seems to show up around the time a very brutal death occurs (and the fact that it happens around a full moon confirmed it was a werewolf) and they were dangerously close to Brighton a few years back... on the EXACT day Todd was biten. I'm sure you can connect the dots on that one.

(Putting a tw for slight body horror. Why? Well... take a look at the werewolf. For one thing, it might not look like it, but that werewolf is actually MISSING a nose).

A dialogue snippet that turned into this:

Standoff (TGAMM Oneshot: Spoilers for season 2)

Summary: Half-feral, trapped in a snare barely big enough for his fluctuating form and Oliver Chen's gun trained directly at his head, Scratch is out of options.

So why isn't Ollie taking the shot?

Intrinsically, Scratch was a pretty simple, lazy guy. He liked an easy routine, a familiar path. The hardest work he did most days was figuring out how to avoid hard work. He didn’t have the patience for strategy (why, when cheating was faster and easier?) and trying to think in multiple directions at once just sapped his strength and made his head hurt. All that variety, all that junk humans did to ‘better their mind’ was just so hard.

Astonishingly, it was made ten times harder when he was near bursting out of a containment unit, a wide barreled gun trained directly between his eyes.

He couldn’t even pinpoint where everything had gone wrong, too much focus funneled into clamping down on a base instinct: trapped in a snare barely large enough for his normal size and his afterlife on the line, Scratch’s scare form had started to take over.

He strained against the effort of keeping his ectoplasm intact, phantom breaths coming in rapid huffs even as his teeth lengthened, spines burst from his arms, his shape swelled and pressed dangerously against unyielding steel and electrons. Somewhere, quietly in the back of his mind and underneath the screaming need to SCARE SCARE SCARE SCARE, he realized dimly that he’d never been afraid of being crushed until now, after he’d gained the ability to phase through objects at will. Well, most objects. Go figure.

So it was here, desperately trying to reign in his higher processes, that through an animalistic red haze Scratch glowered into the eyes of his captor. Ollie stood mere feet away, that biohazard-yellow gun a shield between him and his helpless prey, and Scratch acknowledged a terrible gleam of satisfaction as even now the weapon trembled in the boy’s hands.

Across the other side of the warehouse, behind the orangey shimmer of the Chens’s forcefield, Molly lay prone, the tiny movement of her breaths the only reason any of the Ghost Chasers were still alive. Esther knelt next to her, first-aid kit in hand, expression one of barely-contained terror. Not his doing, but he’d take credit. Maybe next time she’d learn not to chuck a knockout bomb at a child. Well, at him. Molly had taken the metaphorical bullet (not a pretty mental image, given the circumstances), and if anything happened to her then Scratch was going to make all their lives a living hell.

Provided he got out unscathed. Somewhere, out of the thick of battle, Andrea fought to take the snare’s electronics offline, and no doubt June was blocking every attack with equal fervor. And even with legs as long as Libby’s, it would take too much time for her to reach the McGee’s house and bring back Pete and Sharon. Time Scratch didn’t have.

Imprisoned, half feral with the urge to survive, and one finger twitch away from total erasure, Scratch was out of options. Just him and Ollie, and the trap and the gun.

And the father.

Ruben stood, face and hands pressed against the forcefield, vibrating with adrenaline. His attention laser focused to his son, caught on the opposite side with the enemy (that was Scratch, he had enemies now), the shouts of excitement and encouragement died at Ollie’s hesitation and veered distinctly into confusion and urgency.

“Finish it, Ollie, it’s trying to take attack form! End it before it escapes!”

Ollie’s only acknowledgement was the hitch of his shoulders, eyes locked with Scratch in a way that felt like he was missing context. Scratch had seen this boy’s hatred firsthand, he put things on the internet that should not be there, so what stopped him now?

A memory flashed to mind: Molly throwing herself in front of the knockout bomb, and someone shouting ‘NO’ nearby, and Scratch swelled painfully against the snare as a fresh wave of rage tore through his ectoplasm like the hiss from behind his fangs.

Ah. So now he knew.

“We’re so close, Ollie,” Ruben continued to not shut up, voice like fingernails down Scratch’s strained self-control. “Our family’s whole legacy has led up to this! You can give us everything we’ve ever dreamed, just pull the trigger!”

The monster was caged, and still fear shone like a beacon behind Ollie’s eyes. Everything they’d worked for at his feet and he still didn’t move. Didn’t look away.

Scratch was not a smart man on the best of days and now, claws scoring uneven grooves in the ground as their length oscillated with his concentration, he was grossly, hilariously far from his best. “Do it kid,” Scratch snarled, sucking harsh breaths from between gritted teeth. “You know what it’ll cost ya.”

“Do it, Ollie! This is our only chance!”

A long beat passed.

Ollie’s hands shook, but his trigger finger didn’t waver.

From outside, a roar, and then a scream. Good old Geoff. The Chens’s heads whipped towards the door, and their combined fear-smell nearly whited out Scratch’s mind for good.

“Go help June!” Ollie’s voice pitched high with terror, and something else that tugged Scratch’s mind back to clarity. Surprise registered through the darkness clouding his mind as his parents obeyed, gathering a limp Molly into their arms, and a strange quiet settled over the warehouse.

And then, there were two.

Most of the threat and the fear-smell were gone, but Ollie still had a gun to his head and Scratch was still angry. His hue shifted, deepening to a sickly green, mouth stretching wide in a grotesque grin. “So what’ll it be, Ollie? Gonna finish me yourself? Or gonna make your daddy do it for you?” The snare creaked ominously as his growth strained the limits. The ropes of plasma burned fierce red lines through the green, but he barely registered the pain. “Either way, she’ll never talk to you again. Won’t even look at you. She thought better of you, y’know. Tried her darnedest to change your mind. You want her to wake up and find out she failed?”

Ollie’s eyes hardened, and Scratch’s temperature dropped several degrees. He really should’ve known better by now than to make calculated risks, this one might’ve just cost him his life.

Ollie’s hand moved, and Scratch bit back a flinch before watching it dip into a pocket and emerge with a square device. As he pressed the giant, terrifying button right in the middle, Scratch braced for pain.

Instead, the pressure around him retreated, and Scratch floated up into the air. Free.

Free, and alone with the Ghost Chaser, who kept the gun trained on his head even as scared tears pooled at the corners of his eyes.

They stared at each other in a stalemate, Ollie unwilling to put down his weapon and Scratch wobbling between forms as he considered whether to put his uncomfortably pent-up scare energy to good use. Or at least entertaining use.

“Run,” Ollie whispered, and Scratch couldn’t tell if it was a threat or a plea.

The instinct-induced haze lessened. If Ollie took the shot, he’d be disappointing Molly. (Who was he kidding, life without Scratch? He’d be devastating Molly!) But if Scratch proved the Chens thoughts on ghosts right, he’d be doing the same thing.

Ollie hefted the gun higher, looking no keener to use it. “Run,” he repeated.

The easy way out. No lie, Scratch had considered it immediately. Molly was safe enough with the Chens, and all he wanted was to disappear into a dark corner and forget this whole nightmare ever happened. He could run, and they’d be more careful, and this whole debacle meant Molly would stop hanging out with Ollie, and Scratch’s life could go back to normal. Save being on the run. Forever.

(Or until the Chens died out, and with Scratch’s luck this would absolutely turn into a multigenerational blood feud.)

Facts were: he was outed, and so was Molly’s connection to him. They’d never be safe, not while the Chens were determined to cleanse the world of ghostkind.

Scratch took a deep breath and thought of his family, and the last of his spines smoothed and his colour returned to its natural blue and his shape stabilized. It might’ve been easier to go underground, but even these past few months of avoiding their (many, many) ghost traps had triggered an exhaustion that would’ve been called bone-deep if he’d had bones. He didn’t want to put his family through that, and frankly, Scratch was just damn tired. All he wanted was to sleep for a century.

He'd finish this first.

“Look, Ollie,” he started, relieved to find the bass in his voice had returned to normal. “As far as ghosts go, I’m a pretty lazy guy. Rather take a nap, y’know? All that exercise ain’t good for you.”

Ollie’s eyes darted to the side, face screwing up in that ‘um actually’ wince that Molly liked to adopt whenever she annoyed him enough to bring up the flat-earth theory. The first flicker of character he’d shown since this whole standoff started. “Not how that works, but what do you mean?”

Scratch smiled at his mortal enemy, and somehow it felt natural. “Means I’m tired of running, kid.”

OMG so cute! Your puppy is adorable in that art style and i love everything about this!!!

A little doodle of @tornrose24’s Werewolf Todd AU again, featuring Tallulah this time :P

[tgammsideblog]

I can actually see an expanded universe for TGAMM.

A show called "The Vampire and X"

A show called "The Werewolf and X"

You get the idea. Just other shows in the same universe focusing on other monster types connecting with the human world.

Lmao, yeah But that's a common fantasy trope in general

[rainbow-beanie]

Excited to see werewolves in TGAMM?

WHAT!?

My first thought upon seeing this was “oh god…what did scratch do now?” Cause you cannot tell me scratch wouldn’t try to piss off a werewolf for the hell of it, either on purpose or on accident. my boy exists off of spite, food and friendship (the third one being new)

[the-gayest-show]

So happy to see werewolves in TGAMM!

Oh for sure, finally we're getting a true Halloween episode (I think) and i can't wait!!!

I mean I have zero complaints on that one episode (blanking on name rn) but I feel werewolves are awesome

And from the other clips in the same collection Molly is also dancing so werewolf dance off is so on tune

[fox-from-malta]

Last ref/artwork of the TGAMM!Monster AU [3/3] (for now, might do more art eventually haha)

Andrea Davenport - the werewolf, because I said so. Also she's a brown wolf because I used the colours of her eyebrows, since we don't know her natural hair colour.

She's the daughter of Brighton's most known business family & monster hunters.

Yes, both her parents are human and are known to go after the more dangerous monsters and beasts out there [aka. werewolves would fall under that category of monsters] - that's why Brighton is mostly full of humans and the less beast like monsters.

How she got the curse is still a mystery, but she found out she had it at a young age.

After her discovery, since she knows her parents fear the beast she is, she does all she can to keep the beast inside. This however backfired, as when her father started convincing the major to increase certain monster regulations, forcing Molly and Libby to go into separate classes, she couldn't contain her wolf self and started to protest by uncontrollably destroying her parents' shops. [in this AU her parents own a few more store locations, or maybe storage areas than just the one store in canon].

She comes out to Molly, Scratch and Libby first and they help her keep it from her parents and try to convince them not to hurt her when they do eventually find out.

She can shift between her human form, half wolf and full beast [which is twice her size and she is a bit less in control when in that form].

[falcon-sight]

A fancy werewolf AU for TGAMM ^^ ( currently working on more drawings for it so, yk-

[tornrose24]

For those who'd want to know how the big confrontation would go in the TGAMM werewolf au, here it is (TW for blood, eye scream/injury, body horror, and injuries)

In case you forgot, it's established in this au that if you kill the werewolf who cursed you, you have to kill him in order to lift said curse. And as hoped for, that extends to anyone else you bit, be it intentional or an accident.

Also yes, that suspiciously familiar shadow around Scratch/Todd's eyes WAS intentional.

[tornrose24]

Some of you showed more interest in this au, so here are some more doodles, including (FINALLY) a color drawing to show what colors the werewolf forms are. I had to get some input as to what to do with Molly's eyes, but I liked the idea that the eye color from the ghost forms also showed up in these forms. I wanted to transfer the hair color to the fur but unfortunately I had to give Molly a lighter color since her hair color was too dark to use

[tornrose24]

The 'Todd/Scratch as a werewolf' idea was amusing, so I had to draw more of it. (And in case you didn't know why, it was because of the whole 'if they have a unibrow, they must be a werewolf' myth).

-Had this idea that the whole reason why he turned Molly into a werewolf was because she was in the middle of eating something... and of course knowing his food obsession, he somehow bit her on accident.

-I decided to add more so that any character who was a ghost is instead alive and a werewolf. And I decided that Sally of all characters would be the Leader/Alpha of the werewolves because she gives off those vibes.

-.....Yes. I wanted an excuse to draw a shirtless Todd/human Scratch because I could see him losing it somehow. You are welcome. And the lucky onlookers are myself, @artistcaptainbendy and @candyheartedchy

[tornrose24]

If I may ask, what would the roles of the Ghost Council and Jinx be in the Werewolf AU?

Also, was Scratch being bitten and turned into a werewolf an accident like Molly's transformation into a werewolf was or did whoever bit Scratch do it on purpose?

Jinx would definitely be a werewolf. I imagine she has a position of authority as a human but she enjoys being a werewolf more and can’t fathom why someone would want to give that up. She’s encountered Scratch a few times as a werewolf but I’d imagine that he’s managed to avoid her detection as a human. Plus she’s well aware that werewolves are not supposed to create more werewolves at this time (especially children!werewolves), so there’s a certain matter concerning Molly, who poses a huge risk for the werewolves until she gets herself under control. Also, Jinx has no issues with killing humans who get too close to the truth about her.

The council is something I’m mixed about and I don’t know what is funnier-them being part of a governing council over the county Brighton is in (and causing more harm than good which sadly is true for a lot of counties) or if they are werewolves too, and give Scratch more of a reason to keep the biting incident a secret.

Now as for Scratch/Todd…

It was more of a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. He had one of his depression episodes and decided to stop by the woods for a bit to try to clear his head, but made the mistake of being out too long on a full moon night, despite the warnings. The mystery attacker saw him as a target and attacked, and Scratch barely escaped with his life. He was in for a nasty surprise the next month and almost killed someone himself, which is something he deeply regrets and is one of the reasons why he forced himself to try to control that part of him.

Scratch has tried to figure out who it was but still doesn’t know. The few werewolves he does know confirmed that they don’t know who it was, but they have a feeling that there is a werewolf who is attacking and even killing with little regard to the consequences (especially how they can endanger the others), and could be responsible for turning more people into werewolves beside Scratch.

And that particular werewolf is still out there…. And it’s only a matter of time before they come back to Brighton to continue their hunt.

(Before anyone asks… no it’s not Jinx, even though she is a suspect within the AU for awhile.)

[tornrose24]

Werewolf molly would be wagging her tail at all times send tweet

Considering her personality, it would happen a lot. She’s already a puppy in human form in canon.

[tornrose24]

Coming back to the werewolf AU...So what DID happen when Ollie got confirmation that Molly was a werewolf?

He was in shock for awhile but didn’t tell his family about it (Ollie didn’t want anything bad happening to Molly). He wasn’t even sure how to approach Molly about it and only made minor casual talk with her in order to save face. He doubled down on his research on werewolves and after learning about the whole ‘need to kill the one who bit you’ he correctly assumed Scratch did it but he also assumed the attack was intentional and made plans to get him. (Of course that ultimately didn’t happen because that misunderstanding was cleared up later).

[tornrose24]

Since I established major angst for those recent TGAMM werewolf au drawings I had some ideas for it. (Also TW: mentions of suicide attempt).

So as established, Molly found out that you have to either die or kill the werewolf who bit you in order to free yourself from the curse. Which Todd overheard. And he also overheard that she refuses to kill him.

So he’s kind of shut off from Molly for a bit, trying to figure out what to do and sinks further into a depressed state. He already knows that if he forced her to end his life, she’ll refuse.

So… he decides he’s going to take matters into his own hands.

He finds the highest building in Brighton and goes up. He has a better chance at this as a human than as a werewolf, and he’s too scared to do it any other way. He’s at the edge and he is honestly terrified because dying was always something he’s scared of… but not this time. It’s probably going to be the one good decision he’s ever made in his empty life.

However, before he can muster enough courage to jump, he hears a scream and turns around to see that it’s Molly. She somehow figured out what he was going to do and wants to stop him.

He gets angry and frustrated. He tells her that he had nothing in life even before he was bitten, and that he regrets cursing her in turn. She didn’t deserve this, just because he made an incredibly stupid mistake in not controlling his own impulses. So he’s sparing her the burden and doing it to free her.

But Molly is just as stubborn-she believes that they can find the original werewolf who bit Todd and maybe if they can get him instead, then both curses would be lifted.

Todd-ever the cynic-doesn’t think they can ever find the werewolf. He demands to know why Molly is refusing to let him die. “Why do you care whether I live or die?!” he snaps. “Why can’t you let me give you back the life I took from you?! Why does my pathetic life matter so much to you?!”

“Because your my friend!” Molly cries back before pulling him away from the edge. “And because you didn’t deserve to be alone and you don’t deserve to die! If no one cares, then I do!”

…And she tightly hugs the man. It’s one of her usual right hugs but this time there is an urgency and need to protect in this one. In this one, there is all the friendship, love, hope, and determination that comes from her heart.

For the first time in so long, the man finally feels it-someone cares about him. Someone wants him. Someone doesn’t care that he’s cursed or that he’s otherwise a painfully average shell of a human with nothing to offer. Someone would truly feel his absence if he was gone.

…. And he realizes that he doesn’t want to lose this girl in turn. Despite the headaches she caused, she gave meaning and purpose back into his life and gave him a reason to find happiness in an otherwise miserable existence. She made him feel human.

So he embraces her back. He hugs her and returns her friendship in full.

He realizes that he wants to live-not simply exist-but to live. And he wants to believe in this girl with all of his heart. He wants to have her optimism and face his nightmares so that neither of them have to hide.

They both leave, and now he has a new goal in mind-he’s going to take his life back and give her’s back without making her sad. However long it will take, he’s going to do it.
