Wait actually if Skully can turn people into pumpkins we can delulu Jamil is caressing a pumpkin!Yuu instead of, you know, a regular pumpkin

I'll be honest with you anon, I have most certainly thought of that as well after learning of Skully's UM... how scandalous, Mr. Viper... (we will conveniently ignore the fact that the pumpkin is speared on a fence)

The concert hasn’t started yet and things are already wild! MEGA hype!

Groovification: I’m SO living for this energy! I’m totes gonna take some notes for the Music Club’s concerts!

Set to Home Screen: Pretty rockin’ jacket, right?

Home Transition 1: These tickets go for a high premium. Bet you’re real glad to be rubbing elbows with good ol’ Cay-Cay~

Home Transition 2: Y’know, I really dig the contrast between the whole…hardcore metal vibe and the cuteness of those Pixie Metal girls. Like an idol group notched up to eleven.

Home Transition: 3: This isn’t really my scene, but there was NO way I was gonna miss out on an event like this. It’s basically once in a lifetime for us human folk!

Home, after Login: I’m kinda used to listening to Lilia shredding his vocal chords, but a whole stadium? Do you have ear protection? Here, I have some extra.

Tap Home 1: Sorrel looked a little pale when he found out Sebek AND Kingsley were coming along. Not that I blame him, I know a thing or two about problem underclassmen, but THOSE two…

Tap Home 2: Check out these pictures I took in the tour bus! Hey, don’t worry! I’m not uploading these. Even I know there are somethings better off kept to yourself.

Tap Home 3: Kalim knows how to have a good time no matter where you put’im! He looks just at home here as he does in one of his Scarabia banquets! I kinda envy him, haha.

Tap Home 4: The fashion here goes crazy! There’s people here that look ready to walk a runway and then there’s people like that guy over there…in a banana suit.

Tap Home 5: The lip ring? Nah, it’s just a fake. It’s fun to be able to switch up your look here and there without having to commit to the bit.

I see my reflection in your eyes

Malleus x reader

WC: 833

In which you try to bring Malleus comfort in any way you can.

You’re not exactly sure how all of this started. Was it the way his voice turned more cheerful? Or maybe it was the longing look in his eyes when he spoke of it (one you were well too acquainted with).

In the end you supposed it wouldn't matter what the reason was, you had something to look forward to, and what you hoped would be a nice gift for a friend, who more than deserved it.

So, the next day after classes and dealing with whatever trouble Grim decided to cause that day, you found yourself in Sam’s shop looking for the (less than)perfect tools, given that you had to work with the small allowance Crowley gave you, In his “benevolence “, as he liked to call it.

“If it isn’t the prefect! What can I do for you? Although I already heard from my friends on the other side that you want to prepare something special for a certain someone.” Sam said with that knowing smile of his.

‘Of course he already knows, it’s like he has ghosts who work as spies for him. Actually maybe that wasn’t such a bad idea for your own ghosts…’

“It's not like you make it out to be, this is a gesture for friendship appreciation” you said, rolling your eyes, even though you knew deep down it was something more than that.

“Whatever you say, little imp” but you didn’t miss the teasing tone his words carried.

You were so excited for this project of yours, that upon returning from Sam’s you didn’t even bother changing out of your uniform, getting started with the task at hand.

Man, and what a task it was going to be. The ramshackle garden was last tended to probably when the wheel was invented . No matter, the state of the dorm never stopped you from achieving your goal, perhaps delayed it a tiny bit, nothing more.

Working with the mud in already freezing conditions was another hell itself, you were pretty sure you touched some weird magical worm, as if normal ones weren’t already bad enough. But imagining the smile on your friend’s face was enough to make you go back to work.

You don’t know how much time has passed since you started, although the little group of fireflies surrounding you was a telltale sign that your friend decided to pay you a visit , which only happened at night.

‘Just in time’ you thought to yourself as you turned around and faced the horned visitor.

“Tsunotaro! You’re here at the perfect time.” You chirped, walking up to him with a smile.

“Good evening, child of man”, he greeted, returning your smile, with his own, although his had a hint of mischief in it, “you seem rather excited, did something happen?”

“Something like that, I wanna show you something I think you’ll like.” And then you stepped out of the way to give him a full view of the little colourful corner that now took residence in your garden. You looked up at him to try and gouge his expression, his eyes widened a little, however his smile was completely gone.

‘Uh-oh, did he not like it?! Of course he wouldn't, you idiot!, he’s a prince and these dumb flowers were probably nothing in comparison to his royal garden’

“If you don’t like it, I completely understand, it’s nothing special and-“ but before you could finish your sentence, you heard a joyous laugh coming from Malleus, startled you looked up only to see him staring at the roses in front of him.

“Truly, you are a most interesting human, did you do all this for me?” And he finally turned to look at you.

“Well, every time you talked about your rose garden back at home, you got this faraway look in your eyes, like you’re longing for something”, you said lowering your head in embarrassment, “I know homesickness better than anyone, Tsunotaro. So I was hoping these flowers would make you feel a bit better. “

And then you felt cold fingers on your chin tilting your head upwards, all you could see was beautiful emerald green eyes, which held such a fond look and utter adoration in them, you could hardly believe the recipient was you.

“There is no need to be ashamed ", he said softly. “To think you would be so perceptive to feelings I wasn’t even aware of having, and what’s more, you were kind enough to offer me a piece of comfort in your own home. The roses are lovely, and so are you, my dear child of man. You have my gratitude for this gift” And if you didn’t melt at those words, you sure did at the chaste kiss he placed on your cheek.

“I’m happy you like it, come one, let me give you a closer look!” And with cheeks matching the colour of the red roses, you took his hand in yours and walked towards your own little garden of bliss.

[poisoned-pearls]

Hehehehe… @mello-bee im gonna make this a separate post of organizational reasons BUT-

Cut underdeath for general alien stage spoilers and cw for mentioned forms of sa and abuse (very brief and not graphic, nor directed towards azula or Jami)

Azula’s “guardian” is a very eccentric and wealthy alien. He’s had an obsession with humans to an unhealthy degree since forever. He owns many humans, and unlike Shine (mizis alien) in canon, he sees them as expendable.

He ended up having a special interest in Azula’s mom specifically, and eventually assaulted her, which lead to Azula.

she was born with a MYRIAD of health conditions because of this. The species of alien her father is not compatible with human genetics in the slightest, and she’s had vision problems, blood issues, heart problems, you name it. Her mother also resented her because of what she represented, so she was given to the garden for care in place of her mother’s care.

her father also firmly believes that humans are below, less genetically evolved then aliens. Because of this, he’s told her over and over again that she is better than everyone else, because she’s not human, and the reasons she’s so sick is because she’s human. Humans are inferior, so that’s why her health is bad.

the moment she showed any talent in music is when her fate on the stage was locked in.

in the garden is where she met Jami- and their meeting is what changed her path. Now she’s got this head strong human in front of her, and she’s so amazing she doesn’t understand how she could be considered below her. Jami and Najma become her only friends, and shes rarely ever apart from them.

(eventually, her justification becomes that this human isn’t below her. They’re friends until their late teens, so slowly even that gets chipped away at, but at least in the beginning, she simply made an exception for her, and Najma, by extension)

the incident with Najma happens much differently for them. For one, they’re older, about 15 when Najma dies, and two, Azula didn’t kill him directly.

They’d been bickering like siblings over something as Jami couldn’t help but laugh at their interactions. Azula’s father was out observing them, both keeping an eye on Azula and looking for new potential humans to add to his collection (he really enjoys musical ones, you see.)

And then Azula dives at Najma, fake wrestling for the sheet music in his hands. And Najma starts to win.

and all of a sudden her father is disgusted by a human touching her, rolling all over her, and he is furious. He barely tosses a bag of money at the other alien showing him around before stomping over and ripping Najma off of her, tossing the kid to the ground and letting his head hit the floor.

Both azula and Jami are staring in horror as this happens, and he snatches Azula by the wrist and drags her away before either of them can say anything.

He pulls her out fully at age sixteen, where she belatedly makes a last night run to say goodbye to Jami. She’s barely getting out her apologies for everything (they’d been pretending like nothing had happened, even though Jami never acted the same towards her again in those last few months) when she’d said she’d be put in the stage soon enough.

this is also when Jami realized what happens at the loss of these games, and began to fudge her scores so badly she’d seemed to crash and burn overnight. But that’s for her story later-

azula then spends the next 6 years under strict tutoring and surgeries, all completed isolated from any other humans. You see, she may be better than them, but she is still a part human. She looks the part, and she will always be punished for that. She’s both “above” humans, but below aliens. Starved on connection, told she deserves better but never more- never freedom, never the same privileges as the aliens she’s surrounded by. Her room may be golden and fancy, but it’s still her cage. Her nice, pretty, spacious cage.

When she’s deemed ready at age 22, she’s tossed into her first alien stage. She gets through with her talent alone, and with her newfound fame and love, she gets a taste of what’s been dangled in front of her her whole life- acceptance. Aliens were fans of her, her father would bring her to events and people would fawn over her, treat her as equals.

(And her father made a lot of money.)

so she was put into the next round. And then the next.

And when she entered her third alien stage, she saw a familiar face on the board.

Jami.

Oooooooh your monster au looks fun!! And aaah the art! Ghost boy Riddle looks cute as a button, Vil looking gorgeous and elegant with the horns and crown, and Malleus!!! I love how it looks like he has moss growing on over him, those charming carved eyes, and the jewelry in the one art piece adds to his whole vibe~

Does gargoyle/dragon boy want to make the MC part of his hoard? Cause I can see him locking the doors to a decrepit palace he’s taken up residency in and swallowing the key to keep them from running.

Rollo I don’t even think your warning letter would have saved them, hell hath no fury like a possessive, lovestruck monster.

AHHH thank you ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎!! I’m glad you enjoyed them. I’ve actually been doodling more Monster!Twst (Not as a main thing cuz I’m trying to focus on writing the story) because I personally think my style has changed and I wanted to see what they would look like now!

And for the Malleus portion… Let's just say there is locking up and there is an old decrepit castle :). Alas, poor Rollo is subjected to zoning out in the middle of a job worrying over Reader, while they’re locked up wondering what their favorite cafe is serving as deserts (And how to murder their captors but details details)

[r-aindr0p]

Ough art block hit me so uh... random twst crossover stuff since I can't concentrate on main ptojects atm 🫠

More vatican miracle examiner propaganda and a few of the boys in magical girl/boy outfits, busts bc I'm lazy rn

[the-meme-monarch]

i do have a question that is bothering me

if gardenview shut down why were the toons left there wouldn’t the owners take them with them or atleast give them somewhere else to stay

PERSONALLYY i don't think theyve been shut down All That Long? like probably notif they still have electricity and food they gotta pay bills and buy food right. like the gardenview building doesn't seem Abandoned abandoned. maybe Arthur and Delilah still have have ownership of the building and were clinging to We Can Fix This we can get back in business And Soon. but also the toons just already Live in that building, we haven't seen all of them but they all presumably have their own bedrooms. there are nearly 30 toons and qwelver has said There Will Be More. so it's kinda a Where Could They Even Go situation

[egophiliac]

have you seen the new nightwear groovy? alas, the dream of the animal onesies or the pillow fight groovy are dashed 😞 - i have yet to see the card's story but i assume that yuu is interviewing the boys again this year like the birthday boy cards cause there's no other characters in the card (?)

I too am disappointed that we didn't get a big full-on pillow fight. 😔 but he DOES battle by throwing his pillow, so at least we get some cushion action in there!

it looks like this round of birthday cards aren't going to be interviews/conversations, at least not for most of it -- the first part was Jamil talking to Ortho (who he duos with) about what his dormmates are doing for his birthday (they're setting up a surprise party/parade (because Kalim) but they're doing an extremely bad job of it and he's having to go around making sure that they don't screw it up) (being Jamil is suffering). second part was Jamil talking to his (unvoiced mob) roommate and answering Crowley's School Improvement Survey (he wants bigger bathrooms) (also a fridge in his room) (actually, make that a whole kitchen) (but mostly bigger bathrooms). then third part was his ~morning routine~, aka talking to himself about his hair and makeup, as one does in a visual novel. it's less cohesive than the previous birthday stories, but it's all pretty chill and there's some fun stuff in there! (Najma sent him hair stuff for his birthday that's way too fancy and he can't decide if she did it to annoy him or not. truly, being Jamil is indeed suffering.)

if all the cards are going to be about nightly/morning routine though, we're going to absolutely melt when we get to Vil, brace yourselves

[oleeparle]

Meet my Yuusona OC!

She’s very sweet and cheerful looking girl and comforting to talk with a bit of stuttering and always have a bright smile. Though because of that, it is hard to to tell what’s on her mind until she say it.

________________________________________

I got a lotttt to think about when trying to make her cuz the point is simplicity yet comfy cute in my way so it took a while to think about to put that in her character too and since I’m not really good at writing story, drawing bits and pieces of it is all I can do HAHAHDHSJBD—

And the story plan so far I’m thinking gotta be split for one as a Canon AU with the main story timeline and one other that can be with other OCs to be silly with, they both won’t be too much different from each other in terms of events but the character interactions changes a lot with a couple months differences.

I also got this old WIP of her back a few years ago in the robe uniform and the vibe changed a bit and Mr. Shrimp first cameo too! And the other sketch is for my OTP ship Canon cough—

[namelessprince]

spent the last 2 days thinking about what animals pd characters would be :3
