Several Asriels I found on Artfight that I drew ^_^ Asriel's basically my favorite Undertale character so I hunted down a bunch that I could find and put them in my bookmarks. I'll definitely be drawing more Asriels next year! Talltale Asriel "Hot Topic" Asriel Kunal (Undercharged Asriel)

My OC Dawn Rasmussen is the redhead in the last image with Kunal ^_^

I like how in the two of us video you posted, red guy's hair/strings are shown to be cablet like stuff as if he somehow is a computer/generator. Make me think that's why he is so... dry and "lazy" in the web series/tv show, he is lowkey uncharged, so he isn't performing as he should

what do you think about it?

Ooooh, thats a really fun idea! I think he'd get the zoomies

Wesper + Bakery AU

Wylan grinned as a familiar face met his as he unlocked the door.

“Morning.” Jesper returned a smile tenfold, as brilliant as the sun, “Anything new for me today?”

“How can I know what you like when you never try the same thing?”

“Ah, but that’s where you know-everything you make is delicious, how can you possibly expect me to choose?” Wylan rolled his eyes playfully, before hopping over the counter, grateful he didn’t fall on his face.

“I’ve got two new things in today-“

“I’ll take one of each, then. And a coffee.”

“I dunno why you keep ordering the coffee. It’s terrible.”

“Don’t sell yourself too short, Wy. You’re taller than that.”

“Ha ha, very funny.” Wylan called over his shoulder, filling a to go cup with the foul liquid, capping it, and setting it down before putting the pastries in a bag.

“What are your new flavors today?”

“Caramel apple tart and basil tomato mozzarella croissant with balsamic drizzle.”

“My mouth is watering already, what’s the damage?”

“$5”

“I swear you keep undercharging me.”

“You’ve become my Guinea pig, I’ve got to.”

“Well then, these are in order, then.” Jesper pulled a small dried bouquet from behind his back, “I’ve noticed you’ve started hanging dried flowers up and figured I could contribute. Inej has become quite skilled with her lifeless bouquets.”

“You’ve got to come up with a better name for that.”

“I don’t hear you giving any suggestions, now do I?”

The bell rang behind him, the first customers of the day filing in. Kuwei appeared behind Wylan, brow raised at the pair, before shaking his head.

“Guess that’s my cue-I’ll let you know what I think-keep the change!” Jesper slapped a $10 on the counter before scooping up his goods, “Kuwei.”

“Jesper.”

“Bye Wylan!”

“Bye!” Wylan called as Jesper exited the shop with a ding.

“You two need to get your act together.” Kuwei grumbled.

“And you need to mind your business.” Wylan huffed, before turning to smile at a customer, “now what can I get you?”

Rulie, Flower/Tattoo Shop AU

The first thing Reggie noticed about the woman who ran the new tattoo shop next to his flower shop was that she was beautiful. The second thing he noticed was the beautiful dahlia tattoo that covered most of her forearm.

So of course, when the shop was celebrating its grand opening, he went to congratulate her with a big bouquet of dahlias. In a vase, of course. He didn't think a newly opened tattoo shop would have vases. The way the tattoo artist - Julie, she introduced herself - smiled at him made his heart flutter.

She carefully placed the vase on the counter, and introduced him to some of her friends and family. The DJ turned out to also be their piercer, and the guy with the big camera taking pictures of everything was her dad.

In turn, Reggie stuck around and introduced the other people who had shops on the street, who came by after their own closing to say hi. Luke from the music shop. Alex and Willie from the queer bookshop slash cafe. Nick from the pet store.

Every other week or so, Julie would come into his shop to get new flowers for her store. "After all, I have the vase now," she joked. When the dahlias weren't in season anymore, she asked for his suggestion. He made her a beautiful bouquet, severely undercharged her, and winked as he said it was the Beautiful Lady discount.

"But it's not like I can return the favour!" he complained, flopped dramatically sideways on the cozy patched up couch in Alex and Willie's bookstore. His shop was closed for lunch, and he'd gone over to get himself a muffin and complain. "It'd be weird to go and get a tattoo like, every month."

"Why not?" Willie asked, from where he was shelving books. "You'd look hot all tatted up. And Julie does great botanical tattoos, I've seen her work."

"I would look hot all tatted up," Reggie pouted. From behind the counter, Alex snorted. "Except I'm afraid of needles. The last time I had to get vaccinated I fainted in the chair."

He looked up at Willie from where he was sprawled on the couch, no doubt looking incredibly pathetic. "But she's so pretty. I just want to spend more time with her. I keep making her fancier, more difficult bouquets just so I can get to talk to her longer."

"You're such a dweeb," Alex sighed. "Just ask her out."

"No!" Reggie said. "What if she says no? I don't want to make things weird. Do you think I could get lost in her eyes so much that I don't feel her stabbing me with tiny needles over and over and over?"

Willie looked down at him with some mixture of sympathy and mirth.

"Why don't you ask her?" he grinned, and Reggie shot up. On the other side of the couch, Julie stood, her hand over her mouth to hold back her giggles.

"Julie!" He flailed. "Um... hi."

"You don't have to get a tattoo just to spend time with me," she said, smiling. "We can try coffee first. Though if you do want a tattoo, I'd be happy to help you out."

For their first anniversary, he did finally get that tattoo. And every time he got woozy, Julie would stop and give him kisses until he felt better.

A messy set of older doodles that feed riiiight into my favorite tickle trope! (y'know - the kind where a tiny critter/creature/thang gets under the lee's clothing, eheh!)

This also sorta falls in line with the whole "Let's throw a transformation potion on Sparky" thing I've got going. C: This time, a fluffy snake skele,,,

I’ve finally got a (maybe) name for whatever the fuck kind of thing I’m trying to write for akechi in this au oc persona thingy I’m developing.

I didn’t want to call it a redemption arc because that didn’t sound right, domestication arc neither.

I’ve been calling it a ‘goro akechi chooses to live’ arc and in fighting for my life getting this guy to a place where he would choose life by the boiler room.

Then in a discussion with a friend I kinda made a better connection.

It’s a goro akechi realizing his value arc.

As both like a person and in his skill set, dude realizes he’s been undercharging for his hitmen thing and ups the price and shido either has to deal with it or find other ways to do his thing because akechi is advocating for himself in a way that’s business savvy and when did this kid stop caring about him what the fuck-

It’s great, I feel like I’m trying to hit the breaks on a speeding train while akechi keeps hitting the gas because dude just does not chill and I’m sort of a perfectionist when it comes to getting character vibes right so

Uh yeah I guess I’ll doodle/ramble more once I get something more solid.

This does follow the main royal timeline (while adding Hannei in a pre game sort of thing) and I’ll generally be following plot beats but the small variations building up to the end will be fun to figure out

Uh anyways back to figuring out how the fuck to draw the black mask outfit

Hello I need help finding a fic I read yesterday and now cannot find.

What I remember:

Blue Lock tattoo/piercing AU; Aiku, Rin, and Nagi/Reader

Rin was a tattoo artist, Aiku had to do with piercing, and Nagi specifically was nipple piercings and undercharged Reader for 'em

I think it was headcanons although it might've been a full fic too. It was definitely on Tumblr but I don't know if the author also posted elsewhere

Anways. If anyone could send me a link or smth please do because I want to reread and reblog.

The Heretics - An Undertale AU

The Heretics AU is an AU I came up with mid-October while thinking up a Halloween fic. I never did post the Halloween fic (I posted a preview and the first draft was 90% done by Halloween) because I got busy, but that doesn't mean I'll just let it collect dust (like 90% of all my other wips). I've spent a bit more time thinking about it, and while a lot still isn't final, here's the premise.

The Heretics AU takes place in sorta medieval times (I am not the best at writing that period so there will be inconsistencies. Also, magic) and is centered around Frisk and Sans. It's Frans, of course.

Frisk is a nun (not really) isolated in a nunnery while Sans is a curious demon who stumbles onto her while bored one day. Frisk can't leave (for reasons that will become apparent once I finally post the goddamn fic) the town surrounding the nunnery while Sans sees this as an opportunity to laze around and cause mischief.

Frisk, Sans, and Ivan (a character unique to this au) are the main characters of the fic I was working on, as the rest of UT's cast doesn't show up. I planned for them too, but that would leave the oneshot even bigger than it was. Then again, I might split said oneshot. It's grown far too large.

More about the mechanics of the world under the cut.

In this AU, monsters are known as demons or devils, both are interchangeable here and will be used as such, though I prefer devils. I tend to slip into saying demons cause I called them that at first. They, of course, aren't malicious. They act as devils do, and get summoned to earth to perform wishes to the best of their ability. They aren't godlike or anything and more difficult wishes (or those out of the realm of possibility for normal humans) get sent to high-ranking demons. There isn't a hierarchy, ranks for demons determine how difficult the requests they take can be.

The payment for a wish varies wildly depending on both the difficulty of the wish and the devil's whims. For example, Sans can and will overcharge or undercharge depending on how he feels (or so he says, but it tends to do with his feelings on the task). Payment is decided before the wish is completed, and devils can always just pop back to hell if they decide against it taking the job.

While devils can and often will refuse jobs they deem morally evil, such as killing the vulnerable for reasons of greed and such, some devils will take the jobs anyway and go ahead with it. There is no rule against performing tasks of this kind, though it is frowned upon. Those who do it tend to with a catch; for example, Sans (yes, most of my examples will involve Sans as I by far focused the most on him) rarely takes the tasks but always puts a twist in them, to the detriment of his summoner. Perhaps overcharging to the point it isn't worth it or causing a riot that gets the people they wanted dead, but leaves them with much worse problems to worry about (like surviving).

Humans who die are brought to hell through reapers, two being the Sans and Undyne. Papyrus is a Reaper in training and Undyne acts as the leader of the Reapers. Reapers don't take humans directly to hell however, they gather their souls and bring them to the River Person, who ferries them to hell.

Most demons (Sans is one of the exceptions to this) tend to stay in hell. While it is possible and open to any with a good reason to roam the earth as a devil, appearing in front of a highly religious group is a surefire way to get hunted down, so many avoid it. Those that do, tend to hide their appearance using disguises, whether magical or non-magical.

Devils don't (usually) claim the soul of their summoner, as at the end of the day it brings about the same results as just straight-up killing them. Instead, they extract some of the traits and determination from a soul, for use back in hell.

When humans die, they are (whether immediately or eventually) reincarnated. More despicable humans may suffer in hell for their actions, but it's temporary and eventually, they too become reincarnated. Devils are quasi-immortal and live for extremely long periods of time. Falling down is still a thing, but it simply means the demon will be gone for a century or two before reforming, which is only a fraction of their lifespan. Devils usually retain the same form between lifetimes. Boss monsters, or rather, boss devils have never been recorded to fall down and seem to age even slower than normal devils. They do begin to age normally once they have children, just like in classic Undertale. Asgore and Toriel remain the only adult boss monsters, while Asriel is still alive.

A note here: Asriel is another monster who remains on Earth, for the single reason of travelling around with Chara. It's not impossible or unheard of for demons to extend the lifespans of humans, so yes, they have been together for a few hundred years or so.

The cycle of reincarnation is powered by determination and the other traits. As for how or why this works, not even Asgore knows. Gaster, who is at this point Schrodinger's devil, is still unsure of this. And who God is. The devils were created and put in place by something, they just don't know who or what. Angels are simply a thing of theory, even to the most knowledgeable. The prophecy remains, though it speaks of the queue of reincarnation and judgement, rather than Hell itself. While Frisk is the angel, how the prophecy comes to pass is still undecided (And the contents of said prophecy, because little old me forgot about it till now).

While magic is something that all of monsterkind shares, it isn't impossible for humans to learn magic. Witches and Wizards exist, though revealing oneself to be one is a surefire way to get hunted down for blasphemy.

To end it off, the abbey (or nunnery, I don't think there's much of a difference) that Frisk stays in has been abandoned for a good while. It fell into disrepair due to a certain man constantly fighting to get rid of it and finding ways to drain its funds and cause problems for the nuns till it was simply too much trouble for the nuns there to stay anymore. It was abandoned and no one bothered to meddle with it, either due to the fear of God or other, more troubling matters to deal with.

Sans is allowed to roam around Earth because he fulfils his quota swiftly and efficiently, as well as being skilled at disguises, stealth, and escaping from dire situations. He does show himself as a demon to people for fun occasionally, but it often doesn't harm him (due to his skill as a good judge of character).

A lot of this is subject to change and additions, but I thought I would put this out there. And yes, feel free to do whatever you want with this concept if you want, as long as ya credit me for it.

🔥 - furries

oh boy. woof. i was initially overwhelmed trying to pick out an unpopular opinion but i realized. why settle for one!

yeah, furry stuff isn't all about sex for everyone. it would be fine if it was though. it is fine if someone's interest in furry stuff is purely a sex thing. in an AU where being a furry was all about sex, it would still be fine. trying to wash over the horniness of many (not all) furries in an attempt to defend is a waste of time. someone's investment in furry media can be for the exclusive purpose of jerking off and that's all good ✨

there are no requirements to being a furry. it's not an ontological state with necessary and sufficient conditions. you don't need a suit. you don't need a sona. you don't need an account on xyz website. IT'S NOT THAT SERIOUS. nobody gatekeeping furryness in either direction is worth your time. you can appreciate one piece of furry media every three weeks and call yourself a furry. you can follow three hundred furry artists and say you're not. it's not serious.

there is no essential political economy nor demographic composition to "furry culture" of any sort. there are commie furries. there are lib furries. there are nazi furries. there are lots of gay and trans furries and there are lots of cishet furries. furries are, modulo the sort of selection that occurs in filtering who has access to online and offline spaces where furry stuff might happen, basically just a subset of the general population. which is to say that being a furry is value-neutral, and is neither inherently "revolutionary" nor inherently reprehensible nor inherently gay nor inherently straight. there is no one furry culture, and subcultures and communities can differ just as much as with non-furries.

furry aesthetics are a site of ambiguity. this is hardly unique to the furrosphere, but people can and do derive pleasure from furry content that may not in design align with their orientations and that's fine. as a very masc trans lesbian, i enjoy a lot of mlm furry art because i can project my own experiences of gender on to what is depicted (caveat: there is also a lot of nasty transphobia and transmisogyny in furry subcultures trying to misread trans characters, just as in many other subculture)

a lot of furry wlw art by wlws is boring. sorry about it. it's beholden to the same trappings of desirability as any other art and snzzzz. there are many many gems of course (gammelgaedda lookin at u) but the median looks like it was arranged in a sterile room with artificial lighting and forced poses. tbc i am in awe of the technical skill that goes into a lot of this art. it also just makes me feel absolutely nothing at all otherwise. and before someone grabs me by my goat horns: im not saying this is a problem unique to wlw art, nor that wlw stuff is especially vulnerable to it. but I'm a lesbian and that's what I seek out most, so it's what I'm commenting on

you can have as many sonas as you want. some people seem strangely committed to one person one sona. you can be as polymorphic as you like. you don't have to choose.

people joke about furry artists making bank but: a lot of them undercharge. i paid something like thrice the listed price for my icon bc it was worth at least that much.

there's this one furry art style, with airbrushed looking gradients and broad rounded curves and painfully neat lines. sharp colour boundaries and hypersaturation. idk if I'm conveying this successfully but it's everywhere. and i cannot stand it it's so unpleasant to look at sorry 😭
