#torbek and clementine

[jat-a-fan-of-stuff]

Beauty and the Beast but its Torbek and Clementine

[mochirizu]

hey chat what if clementine was real

quick clarification!! there's a running gag in ouaw that torbek is in a supposedly failed ish relationship with a cardboard cutout so i was like 'hey what if she was real and not made of cardboard and they were happy' because dammit he deserves it

[atlaskingg]

not much going on.. hopefully more will be provided over the weekend

ft Clementine !! from @mochirizu

Silly goofy Torbek-Clementine comic for your troubles.

(All non-canon, but a bird can dream)

[time-awa-y]

My take on Clementine

imagine with me clementine was just an androgenous, monochrome, eldritch being that feeds off negative emotions and that's why there so in love!

of course they'd be a classic warlock or maybe even a rouge

[pyrit]

it is what it says on the tin. it's not for the children, but it is for the nasty torbek lovers who like his pathetic and Unwell and desperate <3

[wordy-little-witch]

I am a horrible, self indulgent little mans and I made an ask blog for a completely made up character with full lore and backstory just for my boyfriend to hear me blabbering about her backstop and context and go "Oh you just wrote a self insert!"

I had to take some time to process, and he's. He's not wrong. Then he went to our girlfriend and bemoaned how I'm cheating on him with Torbek, and then HE had a moment bc he realized he's just. A slightly healthier Torbek in human form.

Anyway, I made a whole fuckin backstory, lore, personality and design for Clementine and now I'm simply frothing send help

[notapervertjustabugbear]

Why are you salty Torbek? Do you want to kiss Frosty 🤨

Well, no because-

And Torbek can't believe its real this time-

Torbek has a girlfriend!!

[ask-the-fey-cutie]

The entry rhyme tasted like ash upon her lips.

The final dredges of the carnival's exuberant sounds echoed faintly down the corridors to her side and back, a false veneer of joy hiding its insidious underbelly. She knew well what she had to do, embarking upon such a fool's errand, and yet still her hand trembled with hesitance and horror.

To return home, she mused, or to return home.

Gritting her teeth, barely paying any mind to the sharpened points of her fangs, Clementine gave a soft snarl, knuckles colliding with the reflective panes once, twice, thrice, the accursed spell choking her throat with honeyed poison. The images contorted, colors swirling with fathomless hues which steadily brightened and waned until misty clouds formed the illuminated doorway she sought.

Angry, scared, but firm in her decisions, she stepped into the portal to her own personal hell, one thought and one thought alone in her mind:

She was going to find her boyfriend.

[chubbyshe]

I finished Clementine, and i tried to give her pupils, but it made he look so shit, but there she is! a lill lady. Little Clementine

OUAWL HADESTOWN:

I was listening to Hadestown and imagined an entire scene with the Witchlight characters so here you go

Orpheus - Torbek

Eurydice - Clementine

Hermes - Frost

Persephone - Kremy

Hades - Gideon

The Fates - Gricko/Hootsie/Twig

Alternatively:

The Fates: Mr. Witch/ Mr. Light/ Mr. Garou

Hermes: Gricko

Orpheus: Gideon

Eurydice: Kremy

[torbek-in-places]

Torbek is gazing longingly out the window. (I think he misses Clementine.)

[mochirizu]

I made a design sheeeettttt!!!! EDIT: Altered Twig's design slightly so her hair and eyes are more accurate to her original description

Now excuse me while I go through each character and design process:

FROST

I was able to draw his face by looking at Kung Fu Panda's Tigress and Tai Lung

I gave him four fingers because it feels weird to give him five and glasses because Derek has glasses and I wanted to incorporate elements of him into Frost

I also simplified a few elements of his design so it would be easier for me to translate into future drawings consistently(this is the case with most people here)

GRICKO:

His body type was tricky because he's 3'5 but I ended up settling on giving him toned arms and a dad gut (dilf energy)

Gave him more of a shaggy-esque beard/stubble and a 5 o'clock shadow to go with it

Tooth earring because I can

KREMY:

It took ages to draw an alligator face but I think I nailed it

Gold tooth and yassified eyeshadow and lashes, he's a suave mofo

His cane handle has a moustache too. Please appreciate it

GIDEON:

Patches on his trousers and a scar on his nose to show him being roughed up a bit

The cuffs were surprisingly tricky, mainly because I didn't wanna draw all those chains so I just gave him a few(again, simplicity)

I had fun with his boots!!! (his boobs too)

TORBEK:

I felt a bit of pressure with his design because I love him so much and I wanted to accurately convey his wet cat energy

Gave him big sad dark eyes, and simplified the tubing and cannisters. I simplified a LOT of him actually, since he's so much more detailed than the others

Gave him a tail as well, he feels like he'd have a tail

CLEMENTINE

She was also kind of tricky, particularly in the face, but I ended up settling for goat pupils and a gap tooth

Since Clemmie is a satyr now(felt like it would fit her vibe better) I changed a couple of her design elements while keeping the original blueprint

Her hairstyle is two bubble braids, forget me nots in her hair rather than buttercups, wraps on her arms and a toothed belt! Im quite proud of this now :))

TWIG:

Regardless of how I thought her outfit would look, i KNEW she'd have pigtails and a frilly petticoat

The ladybug detail was a last-minute thing, mainly because she already has spots why not give her ladybug wings

In terms of face, I reference Willow from TOH for the eye shape and smile(also gave her heterochromia unintentionally, now Im sticking with it)

[apolaskiart]

Started out with the most complex designs for the iasuw au because I realize that if I ever draw them on another time, I can determine when I would regret making these in the first place.

Some info below about the designs!

Gideon's was made with the main theme of steampunk. With him being a mechanical engineer (technically one in actual canon, but in this au he has a degree in it), he would likely have an affinity to gears and mechanisms.

The front design is based on steam train engines, while the back is more liberal with wings to represent a phoenix

The middle of the back design also has a bear surrounded with wheat to represent his home of Yona (the bear being its relative animal based on the wiki). It would also have a quote, something like "The blessed of Yona are born with fortune" (pending don't take me on this ssdjkaldjasd).

I had quite fun with Torbek's actually since you can take his design anywhere. Although I mainly stuck with the style of gothic/art deco because I was inspired with the storyline of his past in canon (as well as his basis on mr. jekyll and hyde which ofc was written in the victorian period with gothic aesthetics. the art deco was more aesthetically close with what I was imaging).

And since we are talking about pasts, his front and back designs involve people that he is supposed to know which is a "Clementine" and "The Othe".

However, coincidentally for this a.u, he does not remember that much about them aside from their names and that he got the tattoos during a stint in prison (his memories are also blurry about it - very Harry of disco elysium coded).

Some more things about my Grimmorning AU that probably won't be mentioned in the fic (Fantastic Beasties & How To Find 'Em in AO3, third chapter coming soon):

- Yes, Chuckles exists and Gid is his nemesis. He is a clown that does gigs around Agwe and he and Gid somehow always seem to bump into each other and Gid hates it every time it happens. They have gotten into multiple fights on Wendy's parking lot

- Torbek is a construction worker, he was in the crew that renovated the building Kremy bought for his casino, he and Gricko became buddies and then the rest of the fam adopted him

- Torbek is dating Clementine, who totally exists and 100% isn't a body pillow

- Twig runs the hotel adjacent to Kremy's casino, he's known her since college where Twig studied hospitality and business and when Kremy opened his casino he basically headhunted/dragged Twig into the venture

- Pigtunia and Hootsie are (un)official mascots of the casino/hotel and Hootsie is in the casino's logo and Pigtunia is in the hotel's

General headcanons for the OUAW crew

I just think they’re neat :) idk what else to call these but general relationship headcanons

Frost 🐅

- rubs his face against you affectionately (his whiskers tickle and he knows, he just likes to mess with you)

- when y’all stand next to each other, he’ll flick you with his tail while pretending he isn’t doing anything.

- when y’all sleep together, he traces shapes into your skin with his claws.

- tigers can’t purr but this is dnd and I can say what I want, so he does purr himself to sleep.

- Makes muffins with his paws in his sleep

- Makes you sit with him when he meditates because he thinks you need it more than he does (but knows you won’t do it if he doesn’t do it with you).

Gricko🦉

- pretends that his index fingers are drumsticks and plays a ‘sick’ drum solo on any table he’s sitting at

- Grickos the type of guy to learn how to braid his s/o’s hair if it was long enough so if you have long hair expect him to pout and complain until you let him braid it.

- pretends to be sick whenever y’all wake up and says that yours and Hootsies love will cure him.

- Secretly loves bumping his nose against yours when you lean in to kiss him.

- When you’re mad at him he’ll sit next to you with Hootsie in his lap and tell her how much he loves you so that you’ll overhear. “And they’re so nice, and they are so talented, and they love me very much even though they’re mad at me :)”

Kremy🐊

- makes you sit with him while he cooks. Even if neither of you are talking he just likes to share the space with you.

- Speaking of the kitchen, it’s his favorite place to dance with you. While he lets his dishes simmer over the stove, he’s laughing and dancing with you.

- You’re his go to taste tester. “Here Cher, is it too spicy?”. Your taste preferences always come first and everyone else knows it.

- Gator courting rituals ❤️❤️❤️ he’s rubbing up against you and bellowing at random.

- Likes to share a nice bath with you and flick you with water with his tail.

- Is cold blooded so as much as he hates to admit it, he loves cuddling with you.

Gideon🔥

- this man loves to puff his chest out and do ‘manly’ things for you. “You need help lifting that? Yeah you do give it here >:)”

- Let’s you help him shave, says he can never get a clean cut like you can.

- If you smoke, he gets cocky and shotguns smoke with you.

- When y’all sit next to each other his hand stays planted on your thigh, squeezing and groping at it whenever he catches your eye in conversation.

- Picks you up for no reason. If he’s tired and wants to go to bed he just slings you over his shoulder. If you’re talking to someone else for too long he just picks you up by the waist and give the other person the stink eye for taking your attention.

Torbek🪳🧸

- Needy needy bugbear man

- Yearns to be held at all times. He inches closer to you until you either wrap your arm around him or let him lay his head in your lap.

- Threw clementine away when he realized he loved you “Torbek is sorry about this…”

- He’s a bad kisser but it’s okay cause he’s cute and means well.

- Loves when you bathe with him. He’ll stay soggy forever if it means you’ll play with his fur.

- When you’re not looking Torbek sprays himself down with your perfume so he can smell and be close to you even when you’re not around (he wastes a lot of perfume doing this)
