Maestro Lance (Beetlejuice Casting Parody)

After Alma Madrigal and Dru Gru die in a car accident, they find themselves stuck haunting their country residence, unable to leave the house. When the unbearable Minatos and their teen daughter Yukina buy the home, the spirits attempt to scare them away without success. Their efforts attract Lance, a rambunctious Maestro whose "help" quickly becomes dangerous for them and innocent Yukina.

Three generations of the Minato family return home to Winter River after an unexpected family tragedy. Still haunted by Maestro Lance, Yukina’s life soon gets turned upside down when her rebellious tweenage daughter discovers a mysterious portal to the afterlife. When someone says Lance’s name three times, the mischievous maestro gleefully returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem.

"A beautiful night, as always."

A usually well-mannered and reserved Halovian girl, 17 years old. Delia is a member of the Oak Family, and she will never leave someone in need behind. Despite this, there is something about her demeanour that will occasionally make others uneasy, an air about her that makes her seem... disingenuous, scrutinizing. However, it is very rare to see any member of The Family drop their pleasant attitude, and she is no exception.

Being something of a black sheep in the Family, Delia spends most of her time indoors, painting things she's never seen before. Behind closed doors, she doesn't tend to hide her animosity for the other members of the Family.

(For anyone interested in Delia's lore, here's her doc! It's the exact same template as Yingchen's (yingchens-writings) and contains pretty much everything an actual HSR character's profile would have: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bBluqDpM1gQgIBAABOA5xdmlAQEz7pfBC5pfe70i4VQ/edit)

[muder-boner]

Hi people

Tmrw I go out with aunt idk what we will do, but now I can spend some money, since my father took care of the payment of the guitar, I might get more CD's if my parents let me, and I'll want to get a book about music, or figurines, or a plush, I really want a plush, or a messenger bag, but idk where to find messenger bags tbh, but I love them, I need one so bad !!

I miss Delia smth;( I bawled my eyes out on the street this morning bcuz I thought of her and it was cold help

And blu idk where they are

Also I did reject a hangout for the first time, told them I didn't feel like seeing people and going out and they understood, I'm glad.

Yeah uhm I did hurt my hand, I wanted to do a Bloototh hug w my bsf, but our hands like slammed against each other, this was like... This week I think? But it's better, I have more movement in it and it don't hurt that bad :3

Idk tbh. I did draw, so that's that.

[cheesecakefaerie]

Okay so I have yet to actually talk about my and @harpertheangelwitch AU for batim/batdr. This is co-owned between us.

Which will be updated as I go-

And credit goes to @harpertheangelwitch for the name suggestion which will have a few tweaks!

This AU is called The Inky Mystery or Bendy and the Inky Mystery(subject for some more changes once he has his actual name)

This is back in 1990's modern day Era, where gangs are still around and thriving.

People are still ridiculed during this Era so it'll have themes of those. Meaning any lgbtq+ folk in this AU are more secretive about it to not cause any form of harm towards themselves. This ofc may have multiple Bendys in it that all have different names and may be color coded. We will have the main Bendy who's got yellow hued ink(may be based off an batdr bendy), the batim Bendy will be purely olden colors or have one of his own, there will also be a Pink Bendy that's a little bit of a prankster maybe. All Bendys will be triplets, so Essentially all of them are brothers.

The main Bendy who has no name YET owns his own little gang that idk what to call at all lmao- He is rivals with Belial an opposing demon who does have respect and will sometimes have to actually work together in some cases. Alice Angel in this au despises The Ink Demon brothers, still after what occurred before freedom. Still placing the blame on them for what Joey caused. Joey is still alive yes- but he's old yet causes some panic for toons.

With Belials platoon it only consists of angels, demons, and nephilims(in my au nephilim are a hybrid of angels and demons).

Meanwhile, with main Bendy(batdr), he owns his own platoon with various toons, helped by his s/o Civara. Civara is a feline toon who essentially runs more business related things compared to her boyfriend, who runs more of an illegal cartel that keeps them running.

Not one person owns parts of toon town in this au, but multiple do as there are various Big Bosses with widely known names.

And don't be fooled by the two Delia's around, Cordelia 'Delia' Snow is a kind hearted mute woman who acts as a messenger between everyone even if humans don't like it as much. And Delia Heart(my personal self insert into this AU-), is a woman who sort of is a seductress? She does work that no one else would, having no actual job than beingna freelancer who does work on her and her clients terms. Sometimes you'll see her acting as a photographer, yet she isn't actually one. Just a cover up to hide who she is.

And tags will be added soon so it can be found easier! and I will be sure to show all the ink demon bros when I can

OC-tober day 7: Personality

I don't know why I interpreted the prompt this way, but I decided to draw the contents of Vertigo's bag to represent their personality. We've got a neutrally colored messenger bag, containing a tablet, a phone, some hair ties, a tool knife, keys (with a butterfly keychain for their girlfriend Delia), and a spare mask, in case their current one got dirty. Always good to be prepared!

Also, here's Vertigo for anyone who doesn't know them.

[blueshiftting-archived]

❝ i should have been told. i should have been woken. ❞

❝ as is your right.❞ cordelia pointedly remarked. to her credit, unlike many of her counterparts, Delia did not cower at his words or mince her own; much less, did she even flinch. ❝although i sought it best to not wake you, i did plan to tell you the news in time.❞

but it was never her job to play messenger. in fact, she knew that dio loathed the idea of a simpleton remarking on an event  — useless, as he would say.

she bit at the flesh behind her lip in an attempt to recollect. being complicit in these things complicate her own emotions.

❝  ...  but i thought a simple bit of your stock leaving would not be of any consequence to you. there can and will be more, or my own veins to offer if that’s truly what you desire.  ❞

[transmorolians]

also on the topic of the guidebook, the guidebook describes seraphim as "hal's most beloved and strongest guardian angel":

Hal's Most Beloved and Strongest Guardian Angel

Guardian Angel whose top priority was preserving its own life. Hal feels it's his most precious GA, and for some reason, sees it in the most favourable light. As its body is made up of a vast amount of programs, data transfer is only carried out in momentous cases.

also, in japanese, the dialogue referencing sera is more a threat on delia's life than sera's. it feels like "dude what the fuck. are you trying to show off the messenger's power?" "nah dude i'm gonna cook her into a hot pot stew it's gonna be fucking amazing" "if you fuck up i'm gonna sic my cat (sera) on you"

also, about sera's boss theme being titled 「奥様は天使」 (which is commonly translated to "[someone's] wife is an angel")—from what i've read 奥様 is also used in some situations like mrs, missus, ma'am, and madam, so???? is this butterfly married or old. 'tis the burning question of the evening

the silhouette mirage guidebook describes bug as "shyna's one and only friend in the entire world" :(

Brimstone excerpt #2

Hi everyone! Thanks for all the love on the first excerpt! Here’s the second one!

Rather than focus on the screaming outside, Pythie tinkers with the choker in her hand. It’s a series of wide, tightly woven golden loops interlocking with each other and a disc shaped onyx pendant dangling from the center of the chain. Only, it would be dangling from the choker if the magnets worked. But Pythie was too fucking sleep deprived last night when she began making this that she forgot gold isn’t fucking magnetic. Now she has to attach an iron link so the pendant clasp will magnetically secure to the choker. Otherwise, the whole thing is fucking useless.

She finishes adding the iron link (easy enough, just tedious to do and fucking stupid of her to forget), and her head tics to the side to release the tension in her neck. Only then does she allow herself to tune back in to the screaming outside, and only then does she realize that the voices belong to children.

Growing up with her grandparents means that Pythie is used to adults begging and screaming for mercy that will never come. Children, however, know better than to come here. She has not heard them before. They’re quite annoying.

With a sigh, Pythie hides the choker and her tools in her nightstand drawers and peeks outside her window. Four children stand outside her front door, jumping and screaming for help.

On the ground near them is a person. Their blood mixes with the rain on the pavement.

The front door opens. Delia Messenger, the maid, stares at the children, clearly shocked. She screams once before racing back into the house. She leaves the door open.

Despite the rain falling, Pythie opens her window to hear a little better. For a second, she worries that her grandmother will chastise her for getting the quality oak floor of her room wet, but then she remembers that she hasn’t been in her room in two years.

Delia comes back to the door with Doctor Lamprey. They, and all of the small children, haul the person inside. The door is still left open, and Pythie sees her excuse to go downstairs.

She races down the five flights of stairs down to the ground floor. Silently, praying her mouth will remain silent, she closes the door and begins to follow the trail of blood and wet footprints.

Predictably, they lead to Lamprey’s office, a little room on the ground floor toward the back of the house. Pythie hides in a window alcove, sitting on a ledge and drawing the heavy green curtains around her so that she can just make out the doorway of the office and the people inside. The person, actually a girl, although a very large and muscular one, lays prone on the operating table. The five children surround her as Delia hovers by the door and Lamprey begins preparing surgical instruments.

“Delia, get these children out of here,” Lamprey instructs in his usual clinical tone.

“No, mister, we’re staying,” says one girl. She seems to be the oldest of the group, though she is still quite young. She speaks beyond her years.

Lamprey purses his lips. “Fine. You can stay. The rest of them need to go with Delia somewhere other than here.”

The girl meets the eyes of what Pythie assumes is the second oldest kid, a boy. “It’s fine. Go with her.”

Delia leads the remaining three children into the kitchen. Pythie hopes she’s not feeding them. Delia is smarter than that, despite being too nice for her own good.

Lamprey gets a scalpel and thread out of a drawer. “What happened?”

“I’m not sure, mister. My siblings and I were out at school, and then we were trying to collect scraps for money. We came home, and Dad was out and Cady was on the floor like this.”

“You seem like a smart girl,” Lamprey says as he cleans the wound with alcohol. On the table, the girl, Cady, shifts, delirious with pain. “Why the hell did you take her here, then?”

“I didn’t think Styx could handle this kind of damage, sir,” she answers. All this time, the girl has spoken evenly and calmly. In other circumstances, Pythie would suspect her of doing this, but a) She’s way too small to have inflicted this type of damage on someone so much more powerful than her and b) She’s probably so calm because she’s dealt with similar situations.

They all have, here on Brimstone. A slit throat is just another Tuesday on an island filled with violent convicts and children who know no better.

“Is she going to make it, sir?” the girl asks, uncertainty showing in her voice for the first time.

Lamprey levels a look at her, and Pythie catches a glimpse of the man he was before his sentence on the island: a confident, top-notch surgeon whose arrogance and addiction led him to the Bordeauxs and their underworld. “You took her to the best doctor in this hellhole. Of course she’s going to make it.”

He injects Cady with anesthetic and begins his work.

Pythie doesn’t normally listen to her grandparents, but she tunes in to them lecturing Delia.

“And why did you allow those gremlins to bring in that filth?” her grandfather asks.

Delia is better than the old maid. She doesn’t stutter. “I thought she could be of value.”

They stand in the large living room filled with mismatched, decent furniture and rugs. Pythie sits on the stairs, curled near the railing, overlooking the room. Thankfully, she doesn’t have the urge to tic verbally. As long as she doesn’t hit her head on the wall or the railing, she’s fine. Her head jerks once to the side.

From her position, she can see the side profiles of everyone in the room. Her grandparents wear their usual formal clothes and matching expressions of disdain, but Delia stands more confidently than Pythie has ever seen her: chin up, shoulders back, wide stance.

“Useful how?” To anyone outside the house, the intrigue in her grandmother’s voice would go unnoticed. Pythie, however, picks up on it, and the expression on Delia’s face says that she did too.

Pythie’s head jerks to the side as she listens to Delia’s next words: “Mrs. Bordeaux, you saw the size of this girl. She’s strong, and strong people are always useful. Now that Dr. Lamprey treated her, she’s in your debt. Make sure she knows it.”

Pythie isn’t good with people. She doesn’t know or care to know how they work. If given the chance, she would sit and tinker with her machines for the rest of her life. 

But even she knows that Delia doesn’t want to say this. She stands confidently: too confidently. And there’s a shake in her voice that Pythie can hear, way up as she is. Delia has it easy; she works in the house. Others who work for Pythie’s family are not so lucky.

Her grandparents, as always, are too conceited to notice this. “Fine,” her grandfather says. “Tell the girl that as soon as she wakes.”

Delia nods once before leaving the room.

Pythie races up to her room and completes the choker. It’s way too big for her, now that she sized it up, but she puts it around her own neck to test it. Quickly, like in a real fight, she yanks down on the pendant to disconnect it from the chain. When her arm is fully extended, she squeezes the pendant between two fingers to release the mechanism.

It expands into a staff, taller than Pythie herself (though that doesn’t really mean much), before she can blink.

Satisfied with her work, Pythie collapses the staff back into its pendant form and clips it back to the choker. She takes it off her neck, sets it down on her vanity, and begins writing a note to Cady.

Here’s a weapon. You’ll need it. The pendant is magnetically attached to the chain. Disconnect it by pulling it and squeeze the disc. It will expand into a staff. Unlock the joints on the staff and push down to collapse it into a pendant again.

Run. The Bordeauxs want to use you. I don’t know if it will make things better or worse for you. If I were you, I would run. They will find you eventually. It is better to have as much freedom as you can.

Go to Siren’s. It’s on the west side of the island. I have a connection there. Show them this letter. The owner knows my handwriting. They will get you a job. They will hold off the Bordeauxs for as long as possible.

You do not owe me anything for this. Our paths will likely cross again. Pay me back when they do.

She runs downstairs and stuffs both the note and the choker into Cady’s hand.

“She’s useful,” she tics loudly as she stuffs the paper into one hand and slips the necklace into a pocket on the girl’s dirty cargo pants. “She’s useful.”

Cady stirs in her unconscious state. Her eyes, thankfully, remain closed. Pythie stares at her bruised face and arms.

She’ll have to be stronger than that to evade us, she thinks grimly before going back upstairs to her room.

[delia-witch-of-moray]

(?) Lady Delia!

(D) Ah, good afternoon, young man. Have you come from Lord Moray?

(?) Aye, and he sends you a letter.

(D) Would you be so good as to read it to me, then? Thank you.

(?) “Delia: My wife is expecting again, and she says the babe will arrive sometime near Yuletide, but I thought you should be apprised of this. Ingebjorg says you’re welcome any time at Dùn Inbhir Nis, and Osbjorn sends his love to Fabian.”

(D) Well! That is good news! Tell Lord Moray that Fabian and I’ll come by in three days.

(?) Yes, Miss Delia. Oh, and thank you for helping my mother last week— we’ll lay some extra eggs aside for you soon to repay you.

(D) My pleasure, lad. Go on now, and take care.

[violetmecry]

here's my first full violet harmon inspired outfit !!

Here was my thought process behind the outfit for anyone who wants to try their own: I know that she wears a lot of layers so I started off with the sweater, and we all know she likes Morrissey, so I put on a shirt that I got at his concert. she tends to wear flowey skirts so I put on the best one I could find, and put some tights on underneath it to really give her touch to it. I also put on converse (my Violet themed ones), since we know she wears them, and wore some thicker navy and black socks to tie them in with the tights. I also used an old messenger bag thats similar to the one she has. there you go !!

here are the links for the clothing I wore if you're interested :)

Undershirt: DISCONTINUED Express One Eleven women's lightweight pullover size small color unknown (but its a dark/dusty blue) Closest listings I could find:

Shirt: Morrissey barber shop tee size small color black. Exact:

Skirt: DISCONTINUED Delia black skirt open front size small. No online listings :(
