My cat always scratches at doors at random times in the night. Usually around 2, 4, and 6am. That's because this little bitch doesn't have a regular sleeping pattern and takes power naps, and gets a little concerned when she wakes up at night and everyone else is just. Not there??? We're not walking around, we're not talking, we're in our rooms alone and we're sleeping??? My cat cannot comprehend it.

And you know who else takes power naps instead of sleeping at night? You know who I snatched that headcanon from? (Pretty sure it was Dark)

Dust.

Dust literally saves everyone from Killer's cats scratching at doors and waking them up in the middle of the night. His sleeping patterns coincidentally matched up with the cats. So when a cat is wandering around, it would usually just scratch into Dust's room and calm down. Bonus if Dust and Killer actually share a room, and when they go to sleep all the cats are with Killer and when they wake up they're all with Dust. (Upsets Killer to no end.)

Okay, from here cw/tw? for schizophrenia and a semi-detailed hallucination episode

With my headcanon that Dust has schizophrenia, this would be an absolute nightmare for him.

A symptom of schizophrenia is hearing voices and sounds that aren't there. His main hallucination would be Phantom, and I've read that the voices schizophrenic people hear are usually far away. Like they are literally in the walls/srs.

Now imagine Dust hallucinating Phantom, while also hearing cats scratch at his door. Do you know how badly it would fuck with him. He would hear a voice from the wall, and assume that someone is trying to crawl into his room and scratch open the walls. So he just sits on his bed and hyperventilates. Bonus if the episode would involve physical hallucinations, with hands roaming on his face, head, shoulders, neck. And then with the sound of the scratching his brain would automatically make him feel nails scraping at his arms and legs.

Alr quick question

So Tale based sanses are cats, Swap based sanses are dogs

Night and Dream are just funking deers

What are Fresh and Ink

I refuse to believe that either we're based off one or another thing. They're just entirely their own. What the funk are you. Foxes???

Also, winged sanses. Reaper, Bird, etc idk. They're also an exception, because they are the bird they are. Maybe bird with cat/dog tendencies, depends on what they were based on. If neither, then they're just birb.

HOLD ON ADDING THIS!!! SHIPCHILDREN. If you just make a shipchild of a Tale x Swap based, what are they??? Do they take on one thing or are they a cross????? Same with any other thing like. Maybe I'm thinking too much abt this funk life.

Guys should I draw that

Nightmare in a dress

[ceask]

I FINISHED ALL OF THE WANDS AND ADDED DETAIL TO DREAM'S!!!

Again, the wands are heavily inspired by Star vs tfoe wands. Nightmare's wand corrupted because of dark magic possessing it, and it broke. The moon symbol came loose and is now hanging down, similar to a creepy smile original Corrupted Nightmare tends to have. The black stuff on it represents his goop, dark corrupted magic streaming out of the edges and covering part of the moon. Also it would be cool if the four tendril alike ribbons would warp around someone's hand once someone is holding it, so you can't drop it and nobody can grab it out of your hand. With the uncorrupted wands you don't have that and the ribbons should either be loose or tied around your hand manually.

Me art again

Basically Nightmare. Staring at the moon on a cliff. Cape burned on the corner, ruffles at the end of the pants. Where tentacles? Tentacles left the chat guys idfk </3, let's say they're retracted

Edit: actually fun fact abt this drawing. The moon was supposed to be red. I was listening to "On My Way" throughout the sketch of the drawing, specifically inspired by those random lyric edits that pop up on my tt fyp. It sounds so magical, so. Like. You know when you just have a very peaceful moment, and then you suddenly realize something incredible. It's dead quiet around you, and you just feel like you're in the clouds. But. Mentally, not the physical feeling of butterflies. Maybe some people have that, but I don't really? Like when you have a realization, or you capture something so fascinating and one of a kind that your cheeks tingle and you feel hypnotized by the view. Yeah that's the kind of feeling I get when listening to those lyric edits, with the echo and the music slightly muffled and the vocals are powerful.

That's what I wanted at first but I couldnt figure out the lighting for the life of me, so just went with monochrome blues

Less pretty version. I literally just copied the drawing in black and white and overlayed it over this so it looks better. You can see everything clearer here

Nightmare's castle is literally so fancy. So elegant. So dark, so royal, so magical and whimsical.

Every window is covered with curtains, which are embroidered with silver thread in shapes of tree branches. Every piece of furniture is soft and nice, the wooden chairs having those fancy curves on them, and most of the beds have a fancy carcass to them.

Honestly, it's perfect for a King like Nightmare.

IF ONLY HE DIDNT HAVE A BUNCH OF PSYCHOPATHIC RATS RUNNING AROUND AND BREAKING EVERYTHING 😭😭😭😭😭

Killer is so modern compared to all the fancy stuff. Dust is just basic and plain. Horror looks like a homeless man. Cross is the closest thing to fancy that they have around there, and that's only if you count him as a baddie.

When I say most of the beds have a carcass, I mean some have literally been broken and had to be removed. Killer sleeps on the floor on a mattress because it's comfy for him like that, it's easy to roll out of and roll back into. Horror had his carcass replaced with something simple and metal rather than wood because he would accidentally crush it.

Every chair in the dining room is now just some random chair. Except for one, there's one fancy chair left and Nightmare is literally gonna kill anyone that touches it. It's his now. The rest of the chairs are just random ones they stole from abandoned aus. Why are they all broken? TAKE A DAMN GUESS!! Obv it's Killer and Dust who just destroy everything around them like hostile cats whenever they're in a certain state of mind.

So many things are broken and worn down, making the castle look messy. Nightmare used to hate it, but it grew to him, plus he didn't really have the resources to fix everything. Like not until him and Dream signed a truce. Now, he just doesn't want to put down the framed hole in the wall that Dust somehow managed to punch through. The walls are like thick and durable. Guess that one was rotting.

Me crying bc people are hating on Errorink all of a sudden and it's been my otp since I was 10 can we stop hating on ships that aren't even problematic please

[ceask]

I just had this thought

Does Dust ever get flashbacks about the human/player from his au whenever Killer is fighting or is generally acting more like a player than a monster like the rest of them?

Does he hate Killer because of it? Some general dislike? Discomfort, disgust that someone has fused souls with someone more monstrous than an actual monster?

Srsly I gotta see that like. I was thinking abt that one post talking abt how Killer disassociates and views everyone as npc's with repeating habits and dialog ever since he got to see the perspective of the player. And just saw the new Xtha song Eye to Eye. And thought of this

[ceask]

Would any of you people like suggestive snippets of the bad sanses poly, but it leaves Nightmare out so it's just Horror, Dust, Killer and Cross

And then they get bottomed by the other three one by one, smothered with affection and driven mad

I already have Cross from like a while ago and I made Horror just now

[ceask]

I had this thought long ago and it was so confusing to read back, so now I'm rephrasing it.

So imagine that there are lots of problems in the multiverse. Error is not the only destructive being. The creators are too, and their files can be possessed by viruses, etc. And Ink has to deal with that too.

So like imagine you get a virus, and you're trying to save your files. In the utmv, it would look like little parasite monsters running around the universe and corrupting it. Rotting it, bugging it. And there's only a slight chance to remove them and restore the files you've lost. And that small chance is Ink coming around and trying to get them out of the universe.

And for art block, loss of motivation, viruses, there are different types of parasites and monsters. They're all hard to get rid off.

Virus parasites are like huge bugs, all kinds of. As they run through the universe, the floor collapses beneath their evil paws, and they destroy the world with their corruption.

Loss of motivation would work similarly to depression, slowly consuming the universe into darkness and despair. These usually affect aus that are still in progress.

Art block would be little gnomes or whatever running around and getting in the way of creation, destroying pieces of work. Their mindset is similar to Error's. "Everything is bad, and we're doing it a favor by erasing it."

Ink can't really destroy any of those things easily, so they either never fully go away until the creator fights them, or we have an extremely fanon truce with Error situation and he's the one terminating the disturbances.

II 17 SPOILERS

DONT DO THIS TO ME NOT PAINTBRUSH BREAKING DOWN NOT FUCKING KNIFE RIPPING SUITCASE IN THEIR DELUSIONS YOU CANT JUST WBAT THE FUCK I NEARLY SOBBED

"Come on. The show is over." YOU CANNOT DO THIS TO ME.

Cobs taking Mephone4 back "home" feels. Feels like a child, a child that tried so hard to distance themselves from their toxic parent. Through media, through ocs, trying to escape reality and actually be happy for once. And when the parent finds out. They destroy it. They take it away. They're using their kid for something (Cobs needing Mephone4 to scream to attract the aliens), they can't just let them have fun (hosting shows)

There has to be a 3rd act. Cobs still hasn't gotten what he wants. And. And. Does this mean that they're all gone? All of Mephone4's ocs and creations and all of it is just gone? Knife and Suitcase glitched out of existence. Like the rest of the contestants. And all of the things around them. Did they go somewhere, are they dead like Bow, what's going on what

What if they're all gone. What if all the contestants are actually gone. And Mephone4 doesn't have the strength and selfishness to recreate them. To bring them back

Val's worst nightmare

@crazy-valley @lostsoul1217

I love my husband so much guys

[ceask]

I need to go and make an extremely detailed research about wing preening. Just to get the idea of how Reaper would do it by himself, and how someone else could help him with his little grooming session

[ceask]

why have depression when you can have eyeliner

why have depression without eyeliner

be depressed with eyeliner

I love eyeliner can you tell

[ceask]

Killer meows. If he's nonverbal, he might meow. That would be the only word he would want to use anytime. You hug him and he's confused? Meow. He's fucking sobbing? Meow but more like actual word meow. It's dead silent in the room for one or another reason? Meow but close to an actual cat like meow. A cat meows at him? He meows back so accurately the cat questions its own language.

Meow.

Not really important, but Mezzaluna (my oc, Kross shipchild) would totally pick it up from Killer and they'll just meow at each other. And drive everyone insane. They're literally cats I love Mezzie I love them both
