Lil’ update on the goober (the next one will have an ask)

Script under cut

Killer: Newbie, huh? How long do you think he’ll last?

Killer: a week? A day? maybe I can set a record!

NM: Where’s cross? He’s supposed to be down here. Don’t tell me he snuck out again.

Dust: He’s just being moody in his room.

NM: Fucking of course. I’ll be back, get used to each other in the meanwhile. (Meantime)

Horror: we don’t NEED a healer, right?

🦈 the boys are scheming

Ramble under cut!

Killer: based on the Black-tipped Reef Shark and a Thrasher Shark. His tail is long and whip like but you can’t appreciate it’s length bc it’s out of frame. He uses it to give his prey a concussion.

Horror: is a whale shark because he is a big softie, a gentle giant. I can only have so many octopi, and next to a shark of some kind that’s my second choice for him.

Dust: manta ray. My logic behind this choice works like this; hoodie = soft + covers you = blanket. Blanket + fish = stingray. Manta Rays don’t have stingers. But I gave Dust one anyway.

Dream/Molt: I was torn between a classic fish tail for him or something with tentacles. So I drew three forms for him. his designs are loosely inspired by cuttlefish and a specific killifish I’ve lost the name of.

Because Molt’s goop is tied to his role as a Guardian of Positivity of the multiverse, I was torn about whether not his mer-form should be goopy. I’m still indecisive about this.

If we went with his cuttlefish form, just like real cuttlefish he would be able change the color and texture of his body and tentacles. He can’t change the color of his bones or magic, of course.

This also one of the few AUs that you get to see the damage done to his ribcage. If only bc he doesn’t have three layers of fabric to hide it.

Regardless of the kind of mer-skele, Molt steers clear of deep open water. The scars across his ribs are a literal beacon in the dark, as his magic glows, and are just as likely to attract a predator as they are to attract curious small fish. As dusk falls, Molt hides himself away in caves and crevices in the reef or cliffs. He is a day time hunter by choice, but his brother still prefers to hunt at night.

Nightmare/Rem: i had two ideas for Rem, Octopus or Orca. Orca, because of the general importance that family plays in their social dynamic. And Octopus for classic fandom interpretation reasons.

If we are using the octopus type mer for Rem; like his brother, he can change the pattern and color of his body but not his bones or magic. Though he can change his color to almost any hue he wants, he prefers dark colors.

The dark markings on his bones may or may not be natural, and may or may not be caused by the same incident that nearly shattered his brother’s bones. :)

Help I can't stop drawing these idiots. I found an image of a bunch of guys flipping off their friend in the hospital so l just had to redraw it as these idiots. I'm doing my part keeping this fandom alive. Lmao (also happy 9th anniversary to underverse!!!)

Wooagh that’s carzyyyy

[scribble-brain-aced]

idea:

the star sanses finally capture nightmare’s gang. they bring them to an empty AU until they figure what to do with them. put them in jail? redeem them?

until then, the gang is separated, so that they can’t form an escape plan, so that they can’t influence each other. putting them in the same room together is too dangerous.

except the stars don’t realize they NEED each other. they don’t realize that they literally can’t function properly without the help of the others.

dust can’t be sure what’s real or fake without asking someone for help.

killer can’t work up the motivation to take care of himself without someone nagging him.

horror can’t handle the pain, or the brain fog without someone there to help, or at least to be quiet company.

cross can’t handle being left without a purpose, without someone for him to protect and love and be with.

nightmare tries to act normal, but he can’t handle being alone without someone to be with and cling to.

the stars could help them, but the gang is so tightly knit together that they’re practically completely co-dependant.

is it a ploy, or a trick? is this just a plan to get them back together? the stars, being unsure, don’t fall for it. they leave them separate.

and the gang starts to break.

Scrunkly & malewife if malewife was a serial genocider. (He would never say bro but he would let you walk into a trap for amusement)

[therubberducklad]

D. Depending on his Soul-Stage, I think killer would have very diff answers when asked about CHARA and the PLAYER

That one family who decorates for Christmas before Thanksgiving :

… I am part of one of those families…

[emeraldhazeidentity]

Hear me out.

A Nightmare who doesn't abuse and torture his men like canon Nightmare, but neither does he father them like Dadmare.

Instead, a Nightmare who lavishes rewards and power on his henchmen to virtually 'buy' their loyalty.

Because it's Basic Villiany 101:

The tyrant king who abuses his men inevitably gets overthrown in an uprising.

But the tyrant king who heaps rewards and prestige upon his men shows them that they're better off with him. Sure, to the rest of his subjects he's sadistic and terrifying, but to his loyal men, they get all the benefits of serving him without the punishments.

That's why I like a Nightmare that eases his Gang's psyches when they're having a flashback/LV spike. That's why I like a Nightmare that furnishes his Castle with opulence and riches. That's why I like a Nightmare that is gentle when he touches his henchmen, even though he's violent with the rest of the Multiverse.

Because they're his. And he treats his things with care and reverence. Serve him well, and you'll be richly rewarded.

Hi guys- sorry for being dead for actual ages

Finally decided to continue this project (although my style for it is sporadically changing- please bear with me)

[asterclaw]

so many different ways to say “yes”
