#tooth rambles

[m1lkt00th]

i like the idea that dream and nightmare project their magic in visually different ways. nightmare is capable of morphing their form to be anything they want which includes the tentacles. dream, however, keeps themself in a mainly "normal" skeletal/humanoid form. i havent seen many depictions myself where dream utilizies that shapeshifting ability. (i did see a cool design where dream had glowing tentacles despite having the same positive guardian role)

i am curious abt where dream being depicted with wings comes from. was it swap dream or something else? i honestly found it fascinating how dream with wings played into the whole "angelic" depiction dream can have. guardian angel. just. angel.

my own headcanon of the wings or tentacles that dream or nightmare project coming from an intense magical influx from consuming the apples aside, it is cool to see those features toyed with

aand last but not least - I don't have any refs yet, but I can offer you all some concepts for some upcoming WOF designs! :D (They're free to draw as concepts, but please credit me and show me!! The final design may change ever so slightly but not a lot probably - Moon is not a new design, just being redone ever so slightly!)

Willow, Sundew, Moon and Freedom!

i love this collection of images in particular bc of the comic bits. and just cross being :( a little guy emotionally destroyed over them i think. more cross stuff to roll over in my brain. im normal. why is he so pathetic yet so dangerous

heres my collection of cross being a pathetic loserboy

(a lot of these posts arent avaliable anymore so my finding them is mostly bc ive been looking through other blogs + also theres a file limit so these arent all of em)

HES TRANS I SAID SO BTW VVVVVVV

ok back to him being a loser who isnt loved by his dad

gang i think this is manipulation (yelling at a kid then comforting them isnt the makings of a good parent ngl.... lowk familiar to me....)

cross when he sleeps outside at the age of 6

WHO THREATENS THEIR CHILD LIKE THAT (xgaster does thats who)

pov xgaster is about to beat his children but someone shows up leaving his children alive for another day (crazy how we ignore the LITERAL, HEAVILY IMPLIED ABUSE)

he cries so much for someone people make into a dominant grr alpha male. this is literally a crybaby. like an actual crybaby. nobody does anything with this information. he is the most pathetic stupid idiot boy ever and he needs to be tucked into bed and given a kiss on the forehead and a warm glass of milk

oh hey heres a comic about cross' deadname being called sans

it gets like so much worse btw

the way iwould never recover from my brother who ive been trying to revive for so long calling me a murderer. i mean the full comic has a joke ending because jakei hates me specifically but i didnt save it so. whoopsies. anyway

cross literally wants to be held idk how we dont see that

I HAVE MORE BUT THERES A FILE LIMIT!?!?!?!?!??!?!??!?!??!?!??! so this is all u get for the time being soryz

i've been wondering this for awhile. why is shiver's beak like that

[babyblueetbaemonster]

@devilrose if Thorbeth wants it, he can beat Acelta in arm wrestling because Acelta only have 30 strength XD

Oh, ah, yes, the "How to beat magic quest with no magic", we've all seen it.

So... About Martin's story XD I still hadn't brought Martin to the Priory at that time... and I met Tooth on shore. He told me to meet him at the bottom of the Bay. I didn't think much and I followed him.

I had the enchanted ring, so I cast water breathing on Martin before we went in the water. He did follow me, but stayed close to the surface. Couldn't blame him.

But! Tooth told me we need to stay down here with him, not only for "a full three hours", but also "do not wander off."

I said yes. Not a big deal. I can handle it, and I can even cast the spell for the both of us. Then I looked back. Martin was so far up.

I should re-cast the spell for Martin, but I wouldn't dare to drift too far from Tooth. Especially not too close to the surface. I chose an angle I can saw both Tooth and Martin. His spell did ran out, and he swam up and stayed up there, which is good.

At some point Tooth suddenly swam away, I followed immediately. Martin saw we're moving and followed again. Tooth only swam for a few meters, so we all stopped. Later Martin noticed we're still not done, so he swam up to breathe again. Good for him.

After three hours, Tooth decided "ok that's enough, bye". Then I passed the test, and not once did Martin pass out! Good jobs, team. After that, I cast Water Walking on both of us and we walk back to shore. See, Tooth? I'm very good at Alteration.

Come to think of it, I should've let Martin stay on land at the beginning. Sorry Martin ^^'

Martin, starts to think we're not gonna continue on to Weynon Priory. (side note, Martin's puffing cheeks is based on a meme I like. I just think the red cheeks are cute. Will reblog below)

Bonus:

If you know the reference, I'm sorry XD

SWEET TOOTH S3 SPOILERS

singh's descent into madness was really sad to see like we've seen this man before the crumble started to really get to him. he was a real down to earth guy but then abbot genuinely ruined his life. like after season 2 my boy had done all this horrible shit and had nothing to show for it. and those weird vague dreams were like the last thing he was clinging onto, and then it turns out those were unsubstantial in the whole "destiny" thing. he lost the trust of everyone worth having trust in he literally had no where to go and then he DIED in a cave in buttfuck middle of nowhere ALONE

anit that tragic

[m1lkt00th]

would dream refer to themself as an angel? would that be a title adopted for them by the public? would it be an initially distancing title that morphs into a kinder nickname? would that name cause others to feel calmer or fearful? arent angels beings to be feared, in all their beauty, horror and existence so unlike that of any human or beast?

would dream see themself as more or less than a monster? after all, the treatment they endured would cause anyone to wish to distance themself from the familiar "self". it's easier to carry out your duties if you view yourself as a being - or even, a tool - unfit to be cherished and loved like any common man. would it be fair for dream to abandon their own autonomy for the sake of keeping others sated?

Hello guys! It's been a bit - I'm still working on designs! I have just been busy with holiday art and commissions/owed art. I have lots of WOF, PKMN and HK designs coming up soon, so look forward to those! While i've been busy, I have been doing some concepts - one of said concepts is shown above! I am revamping my Darkstalker and Clearsight designs a little bit and making some adjustments to them! Expect updated refs for them soon, alongside with simplified versions with notes abt stuff since they'll def be needing it haha

Very happy with their redesigns though! I was already pretty proud of their old designs, but i'm even happier with them now!

[m1lkt00th]

daniel has made it clear for the last two years that he doesn’t want that he isn’t ready to give it all up, that’s why this hurts so fucking much because he has so much more to give and wants to do it

what if i elaborated on this. what if i brought up their brothers huh. what if.

cross is such a good foil to most characters (who involve world destruction, brother loss, losing themselves, etc.) but for nightmare specifically it feels largely untapped. nightmare being the big raging beast that gave up everything and continues to rage on. cross being the result of that rage and shutting down because hey whats the point if nothing i’ve done has helped anyone?

putting these two in the same room can result in so many different things. will they see where their weaknesses are lifted up by the other’s strengths? will they shut each other out and continue to dwell in their hurt? will they part ways because their morals are too conflicting? will they enter that tango of “i can help/fix/ruin you” that just ends in their fires burning out? would it even be worth it?

hey what if i said Cross is a foil of Nightmare. yknow, self-destruction, destruction of their worlds, losing themself etc etc

i've been thinking a lot about teeth in the suckening. Arthur starts off with purposefully dulled teeth, meaning that he had to rely on Void to properly bite into whatever he'd hunted. when he gave up his appearance his teeth grew sharp and grotesque, preventing him from properly hiding behind the same facade as before.

Shilo's teeth resemble a classic vampire look with just sharpened canines, but he refuses to use them. he's disgusted by the idea of biting into someone; he feigns humanity by drinking from a cup and willfully ignoring that the blood is still from a person even if he doesn't have to use his teeth.

I think Emizel's teeth are the most interesting since every tooth in his mouth becomes serrated from the moment he becomes a kindred. he didn't make much effort to hide his vampiric abilities once he got them, but he couldn't even if he wanted to because his teeth made it obvious that he was no longer human. plus, edward removed all his teeth that one time, wasn't that cool.

there's no point i wanted to make here, these are simply my ramblings. i just think teeth are cool and that it's neat how they reflect aspects of their respective characters.
