Inktober Alternatives

Are you interested in Inktober but don’t like the history, the pressure, or the prompts for it, or some combination of the above? Valid, and a mood! (although also very fair to those who do participate in it, all art and challenging yourself healthily is valid, and I enjoyed it when I did last year)

Here are some potential alternatives that you might enjoy...

Whumptober

https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/whumptober  A bit of angst for every day, and more than one option per day. Plus they considerately give bonus possibilities for if one of the days just doesn’t work for you!

Flufftober

https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/flufftober  A real mix of prompts, from dialogue to AUs to single words - a wonderfully soft alternative~

Chilltobember

https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/chilltobember  In line with the name, this one is a bit more relaxed, with a choice of two prompts per week, and it actually extends all the way to December - I love the less intensive approach!

Fictober

https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/fictober-event  Their prompts aren’t out yet but apparently will be in the next few weeks. Looks like their prompts are dialogue-based, which is fun!

Creeptober

https://www.tumblr.com/blog/view/6-and-7/694192642857304064?source=share  Part of someone’s normal blog but saw it and thought it would be fun for someone with more of a Halloween-y vibe.

There’s another one that I won’t mention but the 18+ of you are probably aware of and could consider!

If anyone knows of any others (that aren’t 18+, preferably, but hey you do you) please feel free to reblog with a link, and reblog in general - hopefully this can help people find whichever event suits them best, inktober or otherwise!!

Chilltobember Week 2 - Falling

[comfydarkme]

Prompt #1: Mushrooms/Meditative

I've been going at a much much slower pace when it comes to drawing, but when I do, I'm following the #chilltobember prompts! It's perfect because this event is all about slowing down and (re)learning to enjoy the process.

These original prints (size 3 x 4.5 in) are available for sale so feel free to DM or message me ✌️

I hope everyone is doing well during this chilly autumn season! 🍂

Quick sketches of ideas for the Chilltobember.

One of the secret scripts I work on from time to time is a coming to age story of a bisexual teen who escapes home to become a drag queen. It's such a drama of forbidden love and maybe I'll never draw it in the end, but I enjoy writing it a lot.

Anyway, Chilltobember will be the perfect excuse for drawing little bits of Kaoru's story.

A Curious Distraction

Chilltobember 2022 Week 1: Meditative

Original Work with Original Characters (made for D&D but not relevant to this work)

Summary: A distracting conversation about the nature of meditative hobbies between 2 characters who simply hate speaking about themselves.

Peras loomed over Drimm’s shoulder watching him work carefully with his needle and thread. She softly stepped from behind him and moved to sit across the table from him, her attention drifting back and forth between him and his work. “So, what are you working on?”

“I’m embroidering my new scarf,” he explained plainly, focused more on the careful movements of the needle in his hand.

She sat quietly waiting for him to elaborate. After a full minute of silence she decided to simply ask “Why?”

“Well we are going to be headed to Cevinan soon and…" he trailed off as he pulled his head back to look over his work for a moment. “Well, I’ve heard it’s cold as shit.” He looked up and flashed a quick polite smile before turning his full attention back to the scarf.

“That’s not… quite what I meant.”

“Oh?” His eyebrow raised as if he was surprised. He knew that wasn’t what she meant, and he also should have known better than to joke so indirectly with her. 

Peras pulled at the seams of her gloves “I meant, why are you embroidering a scarf? Couldn’t you buy something like that at a market?”

“You think people sell such things? For money? Truly?” The catty retort was carried solely by the exaggerated surprise in his tone, as his face remained calm with focus. She snorted out a laugh.  “You’re right I could have bought something at the market, and it would have been made by hand by someone else just like me. It would have saved me quite the time and effort and thread.”

“So…?”

    “Well it’s for the same reason I embroider my coat I suppose.” He said, habitually avoidant.

Peras looked over his plain grey overcoat, the black buttons on the front were the closest thing to decoration on it. “Your coat isn’t embroidered.”

He smiled and finally looked up at her properly then pulled his coat open with dramatic flourish. The inside lining was decorated with brightly tangled colours and patches of yellow, blue, and green. 

“Oh that’s beautiful,” she whispered as she considered just how well the bright colours stood out against the grey fabric. “It still doesn’t answer my question though.”

Drimm sighed and rolled his eyes, his smile never leaving his face. “You need to learn to appreciate a good mystery, friend.”

“I can appreciate it, but if it remains a mystery that means I learn nothing from it.” Came her unusually quick retort. Her chin tilted up and the pride in her eyes shone through the spaces in her veil.

He squinted “You’ve been hanging around those temples of wisdom again, haven’t you? Those people are no fun.” He waited for her to follow his change of subject, but she simply sat and waited for him to answer her question. “Alright, alright it’s… meditative. I suppose.”

“Like prayer?”

Drimm held his breath as he considered the statement. He supposed it was technically true that prayer is a type of meditation, but it’s not at all what he meant. “No. When you are praying it is conversational isn’t it. You have an objective, something you want to communicate or achieve.” She nodded in understanding. “When I say meditative I mean being quiet and sorting through your thoughts and emotions. Which I suppose is part of prayer but there is more to it than that I think.”

“Oh… I think I understand what you mean.” 

“So what hobby do you do that’s meditative?” Drimm asked, finally turning the conversation away from himself.

Peras opened her mouth to answer and immediately closed it again as she thought better of her answer. “Cleaning I guess?”

Drimm finally put down his needle and thread “Cleaning is your hobby? Well, no wonder you end up spending so much time in the temples. We’ll find an activity for you. Go find a spare rag and I’ll teach you some of the basics. Then maybe you can go ask Mr. Prauthir for a book to read.” He shook his head in disbelief.

“Do you have a favourite book, Drimm?” Peras asked, turning the topic back around on him. 

“If you don’t go find a rag I’m not teaching you shit.” His threat was met with an offended scoff, then a staring contest as they waited for the other to cave. As soon as he reached to turn his attention back to his scarf she stood and hurried away looking for a spare scrap of fabric.

Fandom: Debris (TV)

Notes: Fill for “Chilltobember 2022.” Week 5: “Chestnuts” and “Remembered.”

“Finola, it’s freezing out here. Can we at least get back in the car?”

“No! I need to buy some. There’s still time.”

“The fair’s closing soon. If there is a chestnut vendor, they probably left already. Besides, there’s lots of other food here. Why don’t we—?”

“Bryan, it has to be chestnuts. Roasted chestnuts.”

“I know there’s a whole song, and I admire your Christmas spirit, but—“

She heaved a sigh, knowing she had to explain. “When I was a little girl, my family and I used to go buy roasted chestnuts,” Finola explained. “This was ages ago—before Dee Dee was born. I just remember walking between my Mum and Dad, and feeling so warm and happy.” She sniffed, and it was from more than just the winter chill. “I guess I just wanted to feel that way again.”

Bryan let out a breath, watching it fog in the cold night air. “Well,” he began, “when you put it that way…” At Finola’s hopeful, questioning look, he added, “Come on. We’ll do another lap.”

“Oh, thank you!” She was finding it hard to speak but she couldn’t keep the ear splitting grin off her face.

He laid a hand on her arm, lifting his chin as he sniffed the air. “I think I smell something.”

He led them down a side path they hadn’t explored yet, and to her delight, Finola saw a man roasting chestnuts over a small flame coming from a burner he had on his small metal cart. She hurried up to him with Bryan in tow.

“Two bags, please,” she said to the vendor, pulling out her money with stiff fingers.

Monster Mushroom

Chilltobember #1 Prompt: Mushrooms Fandom: Cult of the Lamb Warnings: A Mutating Mushroom Monster gets killed, Cults but nothing bad or explicit happens Word Count: 766 Summary: After a long journey to get provisions, Cecil the Monkey comes back to Passiflora to show his haul to his best friend, unaware that he may have brought something that intends to eat the entire cult! Luckily, their Leader is there to save the day. Excerpt: "Don't worry! Maybe it's not poisonous and we could eat it all up?"

"Even if it were, it's too big for Leader not to notice--"

"Not to notice what?"

Hello! I forgot to post this on here because school and life, but I have this ready to go for Chilltobember. If I did post about it, I’m sorry in advance, I’m posting it anyway. For Chilltobember, I plan for my prompts to have different fandoms. Do not worry, I do have Kingdom Hearts for one of the weeks. For this first week, I chose the mushroom prompt and I had the idea of a giant mushroom monster so I went with “Cult of the Lamb” for this one. I don’t have the game, but I love the concept of taking care of animal villagers while demonic/supernatural things are happening. It’s a small funny scene, but I like it and I hope to write more soon in my spare time. 

Note: I diverged from canon and created my own species just for this one shot. There are no actual monster mushrooms in game and for the missionary part of the game, the only food item a Follower could get would be meat. 

I hope this is okay.
