[daipeanutsaiban]

Hello! Um I know it's been a few months since you said people could ask you more questions on your tgaa thoughts, but I was hoping to ask about your baskerzieks and genshinxwife ones. Like how they met, or what their last in person convos went like before each couple separated/died, etc, bc I really adore your Lady B & Mrs. Asougi designs! They deserved first names 😭

Also I'd love to hear your genklint/ville thoughts too if you care to share those!

ALSO I wanted to say you're 100% correct that if Kazuma & Klint ever actually met good ending au Kazuma would think he's the most annoying person alive. It's funny if genklint is platonic or romantic too, it's like Herlock Sholmes is right there and instead Kazuma thinks his dad's bf (best friend OR boyfriend lol) is significantly worse. Something something hating your parallel

Anyway no pressure, and sorry if you aren't looking to answer more questions at this time!

HI i love to yap and to yap about dgs especially so you're good haha <3 i'm the kind of person who needs to be asked tbh bc i tend to be self conscious/doubt myself so questions are always super appreciated 🥹💗 this post got LONG so i'm going to put it under a break to spare anyone who's just here for art or trying to look at memes during their lunch break

TL;DR: klint and primrose were engaged as kids but it was broken off upon his parents' death, it was renewed when he earned prestige as a prosecutor; their last conversation was when primrose forced him to confess his crimes to her but she'd started having doubts months ago; in my favorite hc, gkv never pursued one another beyond dropping hints here and there but because i am bisexual i also want them to have fun; genshin and yukari met by chance as teens and genshin had to convince his father to let them marry each other after finding out she was pregnant; he could never say his last words to her because writing about the professor's identity could've endangered her and kazuma.

first of all thank you so much, it makes me so happy when people enjoy my designs and characterizations for lady baskerville and mrs asougi!! for clarity, i'll be calling them by the names i gave them in this post, primrose and yukari respectively.

klint and primrose's engagement was decided by their parents and they met as children- i think they were probably feeling awkward around each other for a while since children don't really care about such things (right..?) and primrose actually chose to spend her time reading when her father would take her to visit, and she might've even been more interested in talking/playing with barok because there wouldn't be the daunting idea of an engagement looming on the horizon lol. eventually, she and klint do grow closer and come to consider each other friends thanks to him putting in a lot of effort to make her feel welcome and also have more fun (she finds him boring- i characterize klint as having been a very serious and dutiful child, though he does play with and dote on his brother).

when the van zieks parents die in my hc, losing their life in a fire specifically, primrose's father chooses to cancel their engagement because he doubts klint can suitably provide for his daughter- a cruel but logical decision as klint is just fourteen years old with no backing or achievements. as an aside, the fire is declared to be an unfortunate accident but klint silently believes it was premeditated- this incident contributes to him considering prosecution as a career. out of care for his brother, he never brings up this idea to barok.

still, primrose is a very clever child who's acutely aware that her father's doting is a form of control (such as making her wear beautiful, white clothes to easily find out if she's been sneaking out, which i think i talked about before), and she insists on meeting klint either at his estate or in the city while they both (and occasionally barok) wear disguises/common clothes. the latter option allows them to meet people outside of their social caste, and to develop a sympathy for them from an early age which also contributes to klint's growing bitterness towards other nobles. throughout his struggle to be taken seriously by these men in spite of his age, primrose continuously encourages him and even spies on her father's meetings with other gentlemen to then report to him, and this continues in their adult life with her reporting rumors and "gossip" from other ladies about their own husbands (with perhaps dire consequences in the long run, haha...)

primrose has ambitions of her own, though, many of which are philanthropic in nature and stem from guilt at being born in a wealthy household to a father who does not care about people other than his own. they are difficult to achieve as an unmarried woman (or even as a woman in general), as her father would never greenlight her ideas, and as such she becomes enraged with klint when he allows the engagement to be dispelled due to believing she would ultimately "be happier with someone else" when it would effectively condemn any ounce of freedom she could have. from primrose's perspective, klint is the only candidate for marriage because he actually respects her and understands her as a person.

their engagement was eventually reinstated following klint's multiple achievements, chiefly when he made a name for himself as an extremely prolific prosecutor and primrose's father couldn't really object to it (ha) anymore. when i researched, i learned that men in the victorian era would commonly get married in their thirties once their careers were established, and i especially like that for this couple because it means that genshin could've attended their wedding. (it's also amusing to picture klint pitching him as the best man while primrose is firmly in barok's camp and they have a silly spat about that, haha. but ngl i prefer genshin as their best man because it was tradition that the best man would drive the married couple to their month long honeymoon directly after the ceremony so. he could stay behind a little while if you catch my meaning. teehee)

on the topic of genklintville, my ultimate preference/personal "canon" is that they never outright acted upon their romantic or sexual interests in one another although the tension was clearly there. but like any bisexual on the internet, i like to indulge a little bit, as shown in my previous paragraph hehe. i like to imagine a kind of kinship between genshin and primrose as they are interested in similar literature and share a similar sense of humor as well (chiefly teasing klint- in a deadpan manner for genshin). klint and primrose tend to dote on genshin in a way they think is discreet, because they can sense his loneliness at being apart from his family even though he generally doesn't voice it, but as we all know genshin isn't a fool and it leaves him quite flustered haha. genshin also relates to klint in the way that they are both heirs to something "greater than them" (the asogi clan/the van zieks heritage) and sometimes yearn to break away from it which might contribute to why genshin left for london if the first place. i'd like to add that if i draw genklint without primrose present, it's taking place with her knowledge and consent, though them being pushed to cheating due to increasing stress or suchlike circumstances is an interesting angle- it's just not something i see myself making at present. though now saying that has made me think about the ways it could be fun to explore the way klint's lying and gaslighting keeps piling up, so what's one more lie? so i'd be interested in reading a story that would attest to his guilt from committing the act and his gaslighting towards not only his wife but also to himself, hmm. the best way that i can put it is that if i'm to explore gk without the v, she must be a relevant character because i'm not about to discard a canon female love interest to focus solely on the yaoi lmao.

now for genshin and yukari, or genyu for short as i like to call it in my head (lol)... there's a lot to cover here too 😵‍💫 some of this, particularly the stuff concerning ayame, is still undecided on but i thought the more context the better!

to understand their dynamic, it feels important to state/repeat my headcanons about the asogi clan aka genshin's immediate family beyond her and kazuma, which were mentioned here. but to summarize, they are very patriarchal, strict, and the type to suppress their emotions. genshin is his father's illegitimate child, and his real mother is... hm, well, she won't ever appear in my art because it's suitable for her character, but she's a high ranking courtesan, aka "oiran", and therefore pregnancy/being a mother could bring shame to her and likely ruin her livelihood, because they are meant to project the image of being unattainable both in appearance.. and price. her disappearing for some months to a year wouldn't be all that suspicious as few men can even afford to meet her.

because the oiran brings the House where she works good money, they help her cover up her pregnancy and her son's existence by sending him to live with his father as soon as possible. once, genshin tries to visit his mother, but he is turned away. in short, his first experience was to be abandoned by someone who was supposed to love him. i think this backstory also serves to give reason to his name (written with the kanji 'shadow' and 'truth') because he is a truth meant to be hidden by the government. if you think about his father giving him that name, it becomes quite sad and implies shame for bringing his son into the world. i think it would also justify the personality i like for him, which is more reserved and serious than how i portray the rest of the visiting trio (with a boisterous but ambitious seishiro and a downtrodden but shy and earnest yuujin), and with a greater disposition for being suspicious... which is naturally a good thing for a detective.

genshin's father's wife lost her life to an illness some years prior to genshin integrating into the asogi clan, which is why he sought comfort from the oiran. to avoid unsavory rumors and to preserve both women's reputation, syoma (genshin's father) forbids his son from venturing outside of the house - paralleling primrose's childhood, which they could bond over later in life - until he turns a certain age. he's the dark sheep of the clan, to make it short. it's by sneaking out as a child that he meets seishiro, and then yukari who is accompanying ayame.

as an aside, i want to add that while syoma holds misogynistic beliefs, he still feels a sense of responsibility so he does eventually pay off the oiran's debt in the end- not that she's particularly grateful since he led her on and made her promise not to abort his child without ever planning to marry her. not a great guy, but def a fun character to write. those are things genshin deduces in his teenage years, and he swears to never become like his father.

as for yukari, her family history is also nebulous, and i don't know if i even want to establish her circumstances before meeting ayame and genshin because i like the meta irony of those details remaining unknown to us just as they were unknown to those around her outside of how she is tied to other people. ayame's friend, genshin's wife, kazuma's mother- never her own person. she reaches a breaking point during genshin's absence, but i won't go into detail about that for now because it's part of a long project of mine. what i can say about her is that she does housework for ayame's family in exchange for room and board, but she's not categorized as a servant because ayame cherishes her, a privilege that makes her feel awkward at times.

genshin fell for her due to her frank and joyful approach to life which was so different from the outlook he was raised on, and she piqued his curiosity with her unusual and often "silly", but free, behavior. he has the utmost respect for her, which is why as much as i like gkv and think it could work in a modern au with yukari's inclusion/approval + rapid methods of communication, i think realistically genshin wouldn't have the heart to start anything with someone else when she is waiting for his every letter so far away. he wouldn't be able to read the expression on her face, and she could easily lie about being okay with it.

in this wikipedia article about marriage in japan in the edo period (1600-1868), it reads: "Members of the household were expected to subordinate all their own interests to that of the [household], with respect for an ideal of filial piety and social hierarchy. [...] Marriages were duly arranged by the head of the household, who represented it publicly and was legally responsible for its members, and any preference by either principal in a marital arrangement was considered improper."

you might've guessed where i'm going with this, but genshin's father had already chosen a wife for him, and that person was ayame, who is from a 'good' family. obviously that marriage didn't go through with yukari becoming pregnant at 18 or 19 (!!), and syoma capitulated to genshin's request that he be given permission to marry his girlfriend which only further strained his relationship with his father further. as for ayame, she was fortunate that the man she was interested in was studying medicine, and therefore struggled less for her family to accept yuujin as her husband. but for yukari, although she knows genshin doesn't love ayame, there's always that nagging feeling that she was the "wrong" choice. after all, she has to witness the interactions between genshin and his family every day, and her presence is often the source of tension. her only rock after ayame's death and genshin's departure is her son, who starts rejecting spending time with her as he grows older because, well, he's a teenager (something i want to expand on in that project i mentioned).

in yukari's case, she was never able to read her husband's last words as even writing about the professor's identity could endanger hers and kazuma's lives, but perhaps genshin had promised he would briefly return at the half-way point of his stay overseas and then ended up having to break that promise by choosing to investigate the professor killings before eventually losing his life. yukari's feelings of helplessness were confirmed as the truth in her eyes then.

as for primrose and klint's last conversation, it's been sitting in my wips for a while LOL. i def think she had her suspicions, and when she finally gathered her courage to confront him, he broke down and told her the truth. i've revised this comic and especially its dialogue so many times that i don't even know if i like it anymore, please pray for me 😅

It's funny if genklint is platonic or romantic too, it's like Herlock Sholmes is right there and instead Kazuma thinks his dad's bf (best friend OR boyfriend lol) is significantly worse.

this made me laugh LMAO honestly kazuma would be so petty about it meanwhile i feel like he'd get along super well with the man's own wife 😂 i also think that as an adult kazuma would admire his father less and even be a bit of a tsundere lol, but yeah in a No One Dies/Good Ending AU(tm) he'd probably resent genshin a little for leaving him and his mother, whose struggles he witnessed firsthand for ten years. hell, maybe he does resent him in the current circumstances even if it's not the dominant emotion when it comes to his father, it of course being grief... still. lord van zieks get your paws off my dad!! 🙄💢 also if genshin starts reciprocating the attention kazuma might start killing LOL

...this answer is now well over 2000 words and i still feel like i'm leaving things out i feel CRAZY omg. autism diagnosis unnecessary atp lmfao.

also just found this in my #yukanotes i should've just copy pasted all this augh. i love yukari very much she is extremely dear to me. 😊💗

thanks again for your questions I'M SORRY IT'S SO LONG....... i DO love to yap 🥹🥹💗

[85-rend]

[arolesbianism]

Mental health shit is kicking my ass but at least I have my silly guys

[pepprs]

STILL wide awake! i did not put down my phone! and now im hungry. so i will not be sleeping tonight ♥️

[s00ths4yingz0di4c]

hi im sorry to be annoying making posts again but not only am i struggling to pay back a debt collector (for bloodwork i didnt even know i was supposed to have, and then the hospital proceeded to do it anyways even though my insurance was cancelled LITERALLY THE DAY IT WAS ORDERED, and i didnt even get the results btw)

but to cut to the chase

no one in my house is working rn and we are running dangerously low on money

me and my mom are trying to get jobs but there's shit all we can do but wait for people to call us back and hope the call isnt a rejection

our freezer and our fridge both are under half full and we've basically stuck to one meal a day just to preserve what we have, buying necessities is literally impossible right now and it's hard to even get proper drinks because our town is under a boil water advisory meaning we usually have to resort to buying bottled water

i really fucking hate begging and i feel guilty for doing it but it's really fucking hard to get by with what little we have and i want to do at least a little bit to help my family beyond sitting on my ass

i can only get money through cashapp right now without the risk of doxxing myself but i plan to open my ko-fi back up soon

right now these are the only options i have for making money:

mass oc purge on my toyhouse (almost 80 ocs available)

art & writing commissions

redbubble merchandise (misc patterns & oc themed items)

this is the most we've had to scrape by just to survive probably since i was in kindergarten, and with how little reach i've got i haven't held a lot of hope about just waiting around expecting to get commissions or god knows what, trying to advertise as best i can is all i can do

even just boosting this post will help me a lot and will help me help my family, even if it's just paying gas i wanna do something

my cashapp should be open to payments if donations can be sent through there

im willing to do art/writing or whatever for the donations you send just let me know what it is you want through cashapp or through ims on here

[tibbycaps]

im subscribed to you [and the person that does paul matthews 2] on toyhouse but somehow never see your posts on my tumblr feed even though i follow you guys. what im trying to say is that i really enjoy seeing kyle and bill get like. a divorce i think? i think thats whats happening. maybe a friend divorce i dont judge but yknow. im reading only the images

also you guys reinvented homestuck [4 kids with 4 letter first names all with an associated color (the girls are purple and pink and the guys are blue and red iirc) get up to supernatural shit. the guy in red has. a brother]

oh my god?? oh my god?

okay im asauming paul matthews 2 means bill idk who that is. but yeah if ur subscribed to me and phil on toyhouse by god im so sorry because that is Spam that is one million character transfer notifs

thank you for appreciating our divorce you see there hasn’t been any canonical fight yet, we just recently discussed how there is a strong potential for things to go Very Badly given the situation. and it could possibly end in them fighting each other. phil and i are both enjoyers of characters getting beat up (fight club is my favorite movie) so weve been drawing a lot of “ooo what if they fought ooo what if they made up oo what if they smoked weed about it together”

kyle x bill would be called kyll which is Fitting

bill is boy goop (changeling) but the player characters don’t know that yet and im scared that depending on how this is revealed it might really spook kyle. kyle’s brother was taken by some mythical entity so he would naturally be very wary of a monster if he felt like it was a threat. and kyle is incredibly impulsive and ambitious and has an utter lack of self preservation so im like. i cannot guarantee that given the right circumstances kyle might attack bill if the goop reveal were to happen in a very sudden and frightening way yknow.

it would go down a lot better if bill just sat the gang down and was honest about it but bill is boy scared and is running from a lot of things. which is a crazy parallel to kyle who is running directly towards the danger and desperately grabbing onto anything/anyone he can

we also Do Not Know Things about each others characters so we are sitting here like “you dont even know how badly this can go” i am so excited. kyle and bill are the only two player characters who we havent seen fight anything yet

ALSO THE HOMESTUCK THING. WE NOTICED YEAH. btw vera the purple one is nonbinary and edie the pink one is bigender. so this will affect the girl population. also kyle’s brother also has a four letter name and his associated color is green. anyway thx for the ask glad you enjoyed feel free to send me asks about hollowbrook always gonna go upload some art of them now

[unikhroma]

hiii i did a chart for my main ocs! i know it's a lot at once but i felt that it would've been more awkward to separate them .. now you know how good these goofballs are at minecraft

btw if you saw me post these gradually on toyhouse i made so many mistakes between all of them but they should be fixed now. chart by voiddemon (finally found the post)!

[p-wrryyy-mordial-soup]

was thinking about something and realized i never posted this, ouugh anyway trying to figure out me parallel canon :33

And while im here, heres some rambling about music terms while i try and figure out names for goopy marie, deep cut, and octavio. smirk emoji

-

This started as me just trying to find a funny somewhat on the nose joke title for meadows parallel canon tab on toyhouse, btw, Meadow - [Decaying A Capella] a capella being without instrumental accompaniment because shes lonely, haha get it hes lon

Marie - [Weeping Sforzando] weeping because from 4s perspective she was sad for the first couple like, uh weeks? months? that she knew her so, and sforzando is a sudden, loud entrance put onto a note and that made me think of chargers

Deep Cut(together) - [Clamoring Dissonance] i feel like the first part is pretty self explanatory, theyre loud and opinionated. Dissonance being melodies that purposely clashes with eachother , but often end in a resolution where they all agree. (i dont have prefixes thought out yet for them apart but i do have suffixs) Shiver - [ / Da Capo] Big Man - [ / Dal segno] Frye - [ / Al Fine]

All of them being terms that can lead back to one another, for the most part, becasue i think im funny

Octavio - [Booming Declamando] hes very emotional HBHFH, idk how to describe this one other than its vibes felt right

ok im done, for now :) <- with ominous intent

[clownmoontoon]

BTW i hadnt ever formally mentioned it but ultimately decided im only posting here, toyhouse and on my patreon!

the links to all are on my pinned post! i do still have an insta, twt and tiktok (and even a cara lol), but i dont have the energy to cross post to a buncha sites atm (too much life happening rauauahgh) and all those have been scrubbed and are blank now

i do plan on posting to tiktok again sooner rather than later but the other sites im kinda eehhh about going back, we'll see tbh

whenever my life settles down (and i know the last time i updated about life stuff it was rlly good!! and its not exactly bad now its just.. a lot and my anxiety has been off the fuckin CHARTS lately lol) i may start cross posting again bc i do like the engagement!!

for now tho we're keeping it to fave sites only! :o) <3

[peteytheparrot]

A bunch of guys redesigned again for the 100th time

Toyhouse folder of them all

Here’s the really old designs if you want to cry btw /j

LITERALLY DO NOT ASK ABOUT BOWS NAME I THOUGHT IT WAS THE FUNNIEST THING IN THE WORLD WHEN I MADE THEM 💔

Oh and Julys name is all weird due to her also being an old oc but I literally cannot change it now at this point LMFAO

[envyq00]

I DID IT. I FINISHED THE COVER ART FOR MY AU. It’s a redo of an older piece I did a while back. There’ll be another I’ll make in the future but yeah!! I’m super excited bc now that I finished this, when finals are done, I’ll finally be able to post comics for my AU! AAAA we’re almost there!!!

For those who don’t know, Beyond the Yellow Brick Road is my AU of the Stanley Parable, detailing the origins of Employee 432 and how they become the Timekeeper. It also goes into depth about the relationship between the Narrator and 432. (Btw, for those who might be confused or don’t know, I turned my Stanleysona into Employee 432, so now they’re the same character XD).

I’m hoping to get the story out through various comics, maybe some writing and animatics! Mainly comics tho cuz my biggest inspiration for this project is the Lab Rat comic for Portal.

I’ve been working on this since December and it’s taken over my brain for a good chunk of time now. So I hope I can successfully get it to infect your brains too hehehhehe.

I’ll probably be posting the comics and all related information collectively on my toyhouse or smth. It’ll also be available on DeviantArt! I’ll figure it out.

[assigned-k9]

Hello! Is it cool if I ask what mirror pronouns are? (Is it like, mirror/mirrors/mirrorself grammatically or something else?) /gen (your art’s lovely btw, i found your blog just now with your toyhouse cat art! :])

Oh thank you so much! :D So mirror pronouns are basically kind of what it sounds like, for example if person A who uses mirror pronouns is speaking to person B who uses they/them, B would use the pronouns they currently use on person A! So the pronouns A uses depends on who they’re speaking to! I’ve always found it really cool and I thought it fit pretty well with Cordys story and all that jazz

[sir-fluffbutts]

from kenny toyhouse

"seen hanging out with the marketplace maneger a lot, apparently he have a lot of fear and respect for this man due to what he've done to one of leon's guards just cause they were causing a fuss in his territory"

and from the guard no.9 death post, your tag said "kenny found the guard in that state"

hmmm ive always thought kenny was the one killing all the guards (except hawkins of course) so that unlucky guard was killed by pepper then? i wonder what sort of fuss he did to deserved death that painful

//LOVE all your characters btw YwY i have a massive kenny brainrot so now im just gathering informations about him for fun lmao

im impressed, somebody managed to connect the dots

[jacenotjason]

YAYYY! Ok so I plan on drawing like- several of my goofs so I’ll like-! List em out and who they’re associated with! I’d love to hear about literally any character you wanna talk about btw

Corduroy - Mostly interacts with Father Gregor

August - Interacts with Jack and John

Sunspot - All over the place, but mostly Bob Velseb, Mayor Evermore and Skids Dad

Lizzy - Interacts with Streber, Kevin, Radford, Rick, Susie and Roy mostly!

If that’s too many characters to explain m’ sorry 😭 you can skip some of them

OKAY RUN DOWN OF ALL OF THE GUYS

Father Gregor - yall know him you love em ITS GOTH PRIEST!! Father Gregor is still a priest, but has other interests that collide with his faith a lot. He was fired from several churches in his lifetime, over and over being told to change if he wanted to stay. Eventually he got fed up and decided to just run his own. now he can read One Piece in the church in PIECE.

Jack and John - i HAVE TOO MUCH INFORMATION ABOUT THEM. THE IMPORTANT BITS ARE THEY'RE CRIMINALS AND CULTISTS!!! i did technically finish their designs, these ones

i need to make like... a toyhouse for all these guys. can you do that?? use toyhouse for aus??? i have no idea

Bob Velseb - NOTHING YET. wait your turn.

Mayor Evermore - oNE OF THE GUYS I HAD FLESHED OUT BEFORE THE AU WAS OFFICIALLY MADE!!

He goes by "Nar" Instead of Evermore and is uhm. certainly having a time

(outdated ref, he uses mobility crutches now!)

Skiddad - he is dead. like fr fr dead. not cult dead.

LIZZY HAS TOO MNAY HUAHGUHFDIOK the only ones of that list i have fleshed out is Radford and Rick

Radford - yall know him you love him its angry popocrn piece (crowd cheers) i have posted about him before and basically all his lore is the same

Rick - doesnt. know how to feel emotions correctly. instead of being monotone all the time he tries his best to smile all the time ! gets fired A LOT because of this, people think hes creepy.

he doesnt feel happy 24/7 he just. he acts like it and people very off-put by him

gOD THATS SO MUCH INFORMATION this is hell /dramatic
