Kinda tempted to make a little info blurb about tips on writing Filipino characters, though I don't think that many people are interested in that XD

(For context, I'm Filipino. Lived in the Philippines my whole life.)

If you would be...should I? Anyrhing to help people write better!

ALSO!!! If you have any questions about writing filipino characters, feel free to use my ask box! It's there for a reason :3

part 1 of making everyone in the underground filipino

my human papyrus and gaster designs !! albeit gaster's design is a bit older and needs some touching up

going to do sans next

[ID: Papyrus as a human, drawn from the neck up. He is a dark brown skinned South East Asian man with red-brown eyes, large nose with a painted nose hole, and thick eyebrows. He has long dark auburn hair which is slicked back, and cascades down to his shoulders. Part of it is put up into a big ponytail with a red hair tie. He wears his red scarf which is slightly torn at the bottom. Papyrus has stars in his eyes and a great, big smile. To the left is an image of his battle sprite for reference. End ID]

[ID: Gaster as a human, drawn from the neck up. He is a brown skinned South East Asian man with black sclerae and white pupils, a long nose, and thin black eyebrows. His right eye is narrowed partially, while the other is opened wider. A thin scar leads down to his right eye, and another scar trickles down from his left eye to the edge of his mouth. His lips are black. Gaster has long white hair that goes passed shoulder length. He has his eyebrow raised slightly, and is smiling, looking to his left. End ID]

YOUR ART *grovelling om the floor like a dog.* May we see your interpretation of the RED Spy? 👉👈

so in my mind spy is of mixed spanish-filipino heritage n went to europe for his studies, a place that presented ample opportunity for him to become who he is today. he eventually followed scout's ma (whom a buddy n i have named sherry) back to america before ditching her and scout entirely

he's never gone back home to manila and has no interest in doing so; a city can change in forty years. anyhow, mann.co and red team keep him plenty occupied as it is.

more headcanons under the cut!

he and blu share a hair pattern, being counterparts, but red spy's pattern is less obvious as he is more self conscious of his appearance and personal grooming than blu is

he knows quite a lot of languages, spanish, german, and french being the top three, and a little knowledge of tagalog

still practices some filipino customs, esp concerning funerals (a common occurrence in his line of work, both for colleagues and as set-ups for a hit)

you will not catch his ass going straight back to whatever "home" he's gotten himself after a funeral. he is loitering elsewhere until the spirits skidaddle

he is still catholic. sorry, spy. it had to happen. does he still believe in god? hard to say!

despises his clone and the other scout. really, he envies their relationship because they've succeeded where he has failed, but he's decided hating them is an easier thing to feel

team leader; he wasn't voted in, but everyone just kinda put him up to it, even if some of them (scout) refuse to acknowledge it

best friends with miss pauling, who is also--to me--a first generation filipino immigrant, so they talk a lot about home

she tells him what he's missed.

all this means scout is also some parts spanish and filipino on top of being american

is genderfluid and aromantic. doesnt care for romance when it pertains to him being in a relationship with someone else (evidently) but he enjoys the game and all its secret rules

what if Aang had Paul Atreides style visions of Katara before the iceberg? ☁️

[Image description: Three panels of the Avatar the Last Airbender characters Aang and Katara inspired by a scene in Dune (2021). The first panel is of Katara a young Inuit girl in a blue parka walking along a white snowy hill. The second is a close up shot of Aang a young East/Southeast Asian boy looking into the distance as he sees a vision of Katara. The last panel is Katara looking into the camera.]

[filipinos your nerdy prudes]

grace is mixed (mark is filipino) and was raised to have a deep love for her culture. max is also mixed but after his mom's disappearance, his dad refused to talk about her or share any of her culture with max. he passes very well as white, so he largely forgot about that half of his identity.

in a max redemption au, grace teaches him about their heritage and he gets super into it :]

close enough welcome back season 1

THE JETSET LIFE IS GONNA KILL YOU, ERIC CARTER!

my laptop charger uhhhhhh. met its end in a very permanent, very fire hazardy kind of way last week. while waiting for a replacement I decided to try and get some work done at the library and was asking around for some urban fantasy (extra points for a mystery plot of some kind) recommendations to check out while I was there

the eric carter series was mentioned a couple of times, AND had the added bonus of having a necromancer for a main character. I love necromancers. someday I'm gonna play one in a game instead of immediately defaulting to vampires.
