He's just not ready 😔

It's alive! IT'S ALIIIIIIIVEEE!! My greatest invention is finally finished, the best 100% OFFICIAL secret boss ever made!! BEHOLD, THE- What the hell is that. It's QUIDDO?!

Normally, this is the part where i start to tell you this little guy's tragic story, but this time there isn't much to talk about.

They were a simple Darkner, brought in their initial darkworld by a certain lightner. They didn't really do... Anything special, they just were there. And all of a sudden their lightner just abandoned them somewhere in another darkworld in complete isolation for no apparent reason.

Yet still, it didn't seem like all of this bothered Quiddo in the slightest, they were so... Neutral.

One day, a strange man somehow managed to reach Quiddo. Quiddo felt happy! They had a new friend! They played for some time with the man, it was fun! But when the man left, something clicked inside of Quiddo, a strange feeling deep inside of them.

Quiddo didn't know what it was. But i think, that if they're ever abandoned again, something horrible will happen.

Now, you may be wondering; "Mercair, what the hell is that thing, and why is it talking to me?!" And the answer is that Quiddo is actually the abandoned quiche from Waterfall from Undertale, isn't that crazy?! I don't know why they're talking to you, though.

Now, why would the quiche be in sans'? Mostly because of the thought of Sans being the person that left it in waterfall, and if sans stays the same in DELTARUNE as in UNDERTALE, then maybe that quiche still exists somewhere? Idk. And also i didn't wanted to make another oc for the skelebros house or the graveyard (the only other place in deltarune with a bench in it, i think).

Now, about their design: In this form, it's pretty simple actually. The head has a flower-like quiche shape, and it's slightly melting to represent that they've been there for a LONG time. As for the torso, i tried to include the bench the quiche is originally found at in their design, and so their legs and torso have a similar color and shape to a bench.

Their super form design: Now, this is where it gets somewhat interesting. As it's design is a reference of what i think are the three main characters in Undertale that are aware of timelines and resets; Frisk/Chara, Flowey, and Sans. It goes with the silly idea of 'what if Deltarune remembered what you did in Undertale?' sort of stuff, and so i made this amalgamation made out of sugar, echo flowers, and ANGER; Quiller.

Note: Tbh with you guys, i don't usually design monsters of this kind very often, so it's design is susceptible to changes. Perhaps some of you can give some ideas?

And lastly, boss battle theme. Again, if you'd like to listen to the rest of their soundtrack, check my soundcloud page.

And that's all folks!

This fine watercolour was originally reproduced opposite page 52 and is one of the 26 colour plates. The illustration accompanies the tale of “Felicia or The Pot of Pinks”. The verse is as follows: “List, ah, list to the zephyr in the grove! / Where beneath the happy boughs / Flora builds her summerhouse / Whist! ah, whist while the cushat tells his love”. (x)

*(Do any of the SECRET BOSSES know about Quiller?)

Quiller only makes itself present in an enviroment full of echo flowers, and in Kris's presence. So no, they don't really get to know Quiller. And thank god for that.

Artist: William Quiller Orchardson (Scottish, 1832 – 1910)

One of my favorite things to read on Tumblr is when somebody will -- in tones of great exasperation and condescension -- helpfully 'explain' to everyone else that of course the true meaning of a popular phrase or idiom is nothing like what most people assume. The popular phrase really means something quite different (invariably, to the surprise of absolutely nobody, something much more palatable to the poster's own personal preferences).

For some reason, these posts never cite sources or offer any evidence to back up their claims. They never try to explain why the usual wording of the popular phrase is so different from its 'intended' meaning. It's just taken as self-evident that this must be how the world works: any famous phrase or writing advice or quotation (especially one that can be attributed to a Morally Good historical figure, but also ones that circulate as folk wisdom without being tied to any specific person) must be correct, and anything that is correct must coincide with the poster's very specific view of how things should be. If these two requirements seem to conflict: why, it's just that the famous phrase really means something other than what it appears to mean. It's obvious, isn't it?

And, well, of course the reason these posts never cite sources or offer evidence is that, without fail, 100% of the time they are full of shit and a simple google search would demonstrate this within seconds.

Help Raise Funds for a Lebanese NGO

Lit for Lebanon is a group of authors and members of the writing community working to raise money for Threads of Peace, a nongovernmental organization in Lebanon raising money for basic necessities to those internally displaced by the bombardments in Lebanon.

I know there is a lot going on, and not everyone will have the means or energy to bid or donate. But if you are interested, and/or know someone who might be, there are lots of bookish goodies available, from signed books to query critiques to full manuscript reviews from a lovely community of authors, editors, agents, and others, and all going for a worthwhile and important cause ❤️.
