SHIT I PUT THIS ON THE WRONG BLOG, I MEANT TO POST ON HERE

MADE THE POST ON CT PEBBLES ASK BLOG PRIVATE. SO SORRY.

my knight-monk agenda strikes again, but this was less of a 'I read something that made me experience several emotions and a strike of inspiration at once,' and more of a 'wouldn't it be fucked up if the bejeweled skeleton saints came to life and and started. eating people. or something. in revenge. medieval catholic horror, or an older horror of not being buried right. zombies, even. a complete bastardization of holy visuals. zombies.'

it's a far away idea, but I still wanted to play around with font layouts. like, if I DID make it into a full comic: these would be visual vibes, perhaps.

it's also a little bit about the kind of intimacy that these kinds of spaces provide, or in the case of this monk: the heavy trauma of war and the death of your brother, the escape to a secluded monastery, spiritual brotherhood to make up for your dead brother, but your role as a physician keeps pulling you back to this violence you want to escape. physician, heal thyself, only you have a holy calling to serve those in need, so instead: physician, open up your wounds again. saint jude, patron saint of lost causes, give us a fucking hand here, man. amen.

Homosexuality in the Renaissance: Behavior, Identity, and Artistic Expression, James M. Saslow

and this one is about earlier history than the medieval period that this comic is set in, but the monk character is sort of an exploration of earlier themes. a little bit. I like overlapping eras with each other, I've done it before and I'll do it again. this character is an exploration of some other stuff too, but mostly this book was interesting to read

Monkfluenced by the the mutuals into visiting the local mission. Vintage monks for your viewing pleasure ;)

It had an interesting little museum. Might go back for the extended tour and see if they let me into the monk crypt.

Humanoid slugcat designs!! This took me ~24 hours over the course of this week. I’m working on a story for everyone, but this is all I have in me for right now.  The height chart applies to slugs regardless of if I draw them as slugs or as humanoids! I just didn’t want to draw every single slug as a humanoid.. again.

No, I am NOT obsessed over rain world only after playing it for 8 hours. Why that's preposterous!

Anyways here's some stuff I drew while I was bored these past few days.

I'll probably fill this to the brim with doodles feel free to suggest something idk

Tmi or whatever but is it normal for ur menstrual cycle to completely dictate how horny u are to the point that basically no outside influences can change it and its so precise that its more accurate than any other period prediction method. Every month i get two weeks of nothing like im less horny than a monk in the mountains who has dedicated his life to achieving this level of celibacy and disconnect from sexuality. And then the second i feel the urge to jerk off ik my period is coming the next day. Then my period for a week then the week after im jerking off twice before i even get out of bed and thinking wow why dont i do this more and then the horny week ends and im back to not even thinking about it

Usually in BG3 after a bloodbath battle anyone who was in the thick of it is just absolutely covered in blood and usually it's like, "wow, you look so cool!" It's something to admire

However this does not happen with my current tav. This is just biblically accurate Duke. He can't stop fistfighting people. He doesn't look cool. He looks even more pathetic. Love that for him
