super ☆ breakroom ☆ dancing ☆ night ☆

I had some really ambitious plans for artfight this year, but I quickly had a lot of work on my plate as all of the planned slots that I had were immediately filled. I was hoping to attack every single character in the RD character tag, but there was just too many, so I had to cut it down to just staff and interns... and even then it was too much!! I didn't get to fit everyone in! I realized I had to make some cuts :( it made me sad, but I'm still very happy with the finished project. I hope to do this again sometime. Though... maybe not an animation...?? ^^;;

please check out the attack here so you can see everyone's lovely ocs!

DR. RIVER

I figured I would revisit the design of our favourite resident teacher's pet (doctor's pet?). It's my internsona, Dr. River! Though he's definitely more of an OC, at this rate. He just has a lot of my Quirks.

This was mostly made after he seemed to get quite a bit of affection in the RDL fanon channels; so, if you're curious on who exactly this pattern-loving nerd is, look below!

Dr. O. River (he refuses to clarify what the 'O' stands for) is a member of the Rhythm Doctor Initiative within Middlesea Hospital. In some routes, he is the intern - who, after the events of 1-XN, lost faith within the remote feature of the project; and began to attend to patients in person. In others, and most commonly, he is an intern supervisor - a role given to him by Dr. Edega when one particular intern came under his wing.

Speaking of Edega, River is mostly known for his core feature: he's Edega's favourite.

To put in better words: River thrives off of overwork. The more you give him, the more energy he'll have - and, in turn, the more work he'll get done. In addition, he's professional to a fault, seeming almost robotic in the way he presents himself. Observant, efficient, and, most of all, apathetic.

Or, at least, that's how he presents himself to the lead doctor.

Truth be told, River is far friendlier as he looks. An absolute dork with a literature degree; he'll take any chance to ramble about language, formatting, prose and the like. One of his biggest features as a supervisor is that he knows stress when he sees it, and will take an intern's pager (claims its for "intern surveillance") entirely to mark half of their tasks as complete ("I've already treated this lot. Just stick to these four, and I'll handle the rest"). He also hates Edega's guts - more than you think. No, more than that.

He'll drop lore at the drop of a hat ("Want a fun fact? 'M Scottish. Don't sound like it, but I've got a whole lot o' siblings in the central highlands."), crack jokes on a whim and laugh at himself ("How do you get two whales in a red mini?"), and fake Edega's footsteps entirely to scare his first and favourite intern: Dr. Desert [owned by the lovely @fufupng].

In short: Dr. River is a monotonous nerd with a heart of gold. He can predict when patients need treating, and has an obsession with pattern recognition - but, if you need some help with that overwhelming list of tasks Edega has you doing, he'll gladly do 80% of the work for you. As long as you let him talk about words.

A little spook (ft Dr. River @emo-hermit )

[ethecookednoodle]

A few years ago I made an oc for @crimson-chains Sweet Beginnings story and I decided to redesign him the other day that I remembered he existed. As you can see, he's based on water lmao. I'm really happy with how he came out, I finally was able to draw him the way I imagined him.

Some backstory and cool background bc I can under the cut :)

His name is River, and he's a doctor! More specifically a surgeon and a pediatrician. He wasn't originally called River, but as I was redesigning him I decided that people made fun of him so much bc of his name that to change it to River to avoid anymore problems.

I think he has a horribly unsuccessful love life bc people think he's plain and boring 😂 despite being good looking and a very friendly, easy going personality I think people get disenchanted very fast with him bc he doesn't taste like anything. This is based on an ask Crimson answered a long time ago where I think she said the fluids (like saliva) of characters based on drinks and foods actually taste like the drinks and the foods. And well, since he's water he doesn't really have a particular taste.

I think he'd visit the bar and the bakery fairly often. He'd go to buy his lunch and some treats for the other doctors and nurses at the bakery and at then go to the bar to let go of some steam at the end of every of every shift. I also think he's a heavy drinker bc since he's water the alcohol washes out of his body more easily, but he doesn't drink that often since he works at a hospital.

He's also really good with kids and is the go to doctor whenever there's a patient (child or adult) who's being hard to handle. He has a very soothing and calming presence after all!

Also last but not least, let me share the cool background I made for him:

Just a genuine reminder, simply liking and reblogging posts or just paying attention to what's happening in places like Palestine, The Congo, Sudan, Yemen, Syria, etc. Does help!

If you can't donate or boycott because you're a minor or in a situation where you can't afford to try signing petitions and spreading awareness so others who can afford to can have information

Edit: there are a lot of good suggestions for what to do in the reblogs that I forgot to mention

Here's River if you'd like! Feel free to use this for information on the dork, but I'd also like to pass on some random screenshots of his dialogue for a better concept of his character, both for you and for anyone else:

Is an absolute nerd. Monotonous, serious and very technical in his language. Despite this, he's excellent at analogies, making sure everyone can understand the topic at hand.

Despite his aloof, over-serious nature, he's quite talkative and kind. He is very materialistic, preferring to give gifts of a physical nature, e.g. gemstones, accessories, and other items of that variety. The best way to get him laughing is through dad jokes.

He is one of the only interns that doesn't get possessed in terms of that route. Instead, he has a bit of a fascination with the after-affects, preferring to experiment and create theories for something that defies all logic.

i admit i put this off for way too long out of anxiety ahaha but genuinely have fun with him! edit: i. didnt provide any screenshots. whoops. yeah not bothering haha have fun thank you nightmun youre lovely!

Hey so I’ve wanted to interact with this community a bit more but I’m pretty anxious so instead of talking to people like a normal person I’ve decided to interact with y’all via drawing your characters/sonas! So yeah if you send me your interns I wanna draw something with them! Idk if it will be one big drawing with a bunch of them or individual drawings (kinda just depends on my motivation/if I have any good ideas) and I can’t guarantee I’ll draw everyone depending on how many people send in their lads but we’ll see I guess!

All I need is a colored full body ref of your intern (preferably digital cause color picking from traditional refs is PAIN but I will do it if you don’t have a digital ref, just don’t expect super accurate colors) a brief description of their personality (or if you’ve written a bunch about them before fee free to link it, the more I know about them the easier it is to draw them in character) and maybe their height in case I draw them together (either exact height or compared to canon characters ex: they’re a little shorter than Ada). You can reblog this post with your intern or, if you don’t wanna reblog, just send them in as an ask or something. As long as I can see them it works!

So yeah, don’t know how far I’ll go with this but at very least I’ll draw a few lads! You guys have a lot of cool interns so I’m looking forward to drawing them!
