Zooks: There's talk of giant spiders and other less natural monsters near the old fortress in the center of the wood.
Inuyasha: What?!
Inuyasha: We'll have to finish this later!
Gad: Be careful out there!
Astro & Sunburst: ...
@ask-wizard-sunburst: Did he say 'giant spiders'?

Thanks everyone for your patience! This bit took me a really long time because there were so many figures and new poses and effects to draw!
In the intervening time, I did really enjoy seeing everyone's speculations as to who the off-screen character was! Nobody managed to connect the dots that they'd seen this font and text color before!
Anyway I hope to do a couple more entries like this where I can sit back and let the story tell itself. I'll even try drawing some action sequences maybe but hopefully I can avoid drawing too many spiders.

I'm actually on time this time! :D
This week's Some Pony Sunday is for @ask-gadzooks! Zooks is taking some time alone to do some moonlit reading...Or maybe he's just admiring the night sky. Whatever he's doing, he seems rather relaxed.
Since I drew Gad for Inktober, I figured I'd do Zooks for this! ^^ Hope you like it! ♥

A little portrait of our gargoyle/fae girl Zooka Zooka! We mostly wanted to have fun with the light, but this was, in truth, pretty fun and relaxing to complete as a whole. Her big fangs and ears bring us joy ✨

The @asktwilighteclipse story, Chapter 4
Tumblr media
“Hello, Grandpa.” Draco was momentarily rooted to the ground where he stood. The same paralysis extended to the soldiers under his command, who were waiting for orders from their frozen commander. Gad and Zooks, in the back, could only just about make out what was happening, but they were in a similar state. And so it was that Draco took a magical blast straight to the face. He was instantly enveloped in a blast of green flames that knocked the closest knights a few feet back into the air. “Draco!” Light shouted, immediately shaking herself free from the paralysis. The spot Draco had been standing was wreathed in thick smoke for a few seconds before Everyone heard a short cough. Draco was still standing, despite taking the brunt of a blast that would have reduced a lesser pony to dust. “Stand Down.” Draco said to his opponents through his bared teeth.
Tumblr media
“No.” Midnight said, a grin on her face. “Your time as Prince is done. We will take your place.” Another shot of magic came from Midnight’s horn, this time a deep purple. Draco’s sword was seemingly conjured from nowhere and deflected the blow. The beam hit a wall, leaving a worrying crater. “Don’t make me fight you,” Draco said, “I’m here to save you!” “We don’t need saving! We’re more powerful than we’ve ever been!” Midnight said as Lunar broke a stalactite from the ceiling and propelled it forward with ballistic force. Draco’s blade came down on the incoming spike, shattering it into a thousand tiny pieces of shrapnel. A few Knights near the front of the group covered their faces with their armored hooves to avoid getting hit. “That power is a curse! Let it go!” Draco said staunchly. “Oh, you would say that, wouldn’t you?” Midnight replied. “After all, you’re the one who kept us from it in the first place!” With a flash of Midnight’s horn, the walls of the cave broke and slammed inward towards Draco. “Get Back!” Draco shouted to the Knights behind him, instants before the incoming rocks slammed into a sparkling force field that surrounded him. Two massive magical forces struggled against eachother, causing the air around them to fill with sparks. A moment later Draco Slammed a hoof into the ground, and the rocks flew outward in an explosion of sharp gravel. The cave walls and ceiling gave a groan and a crack before settling down again. Draco Gritted his teeth. “Knights… retreat.” “Sir… we’re trained to-” Ice began. “Retreat! Now!” Draco repeated. And this time none of the knights hesitated. Gad and Zooks hesitantly followed. Draco kept his eys trained on his grandchildren as he backed away, and only turned when he broke line of sight. “Sir, we’re trained to take down rouge alicorns!” Phoenix said as soon as they were out of earshot. “I know.” Draco said. “I also know that Twilight and Solar are no match for you; maybe too much so.” The knights looked at eachother with confusion until Zooks spoke up. “They weren’t using any wards; no protection magic.” Pheonix cursed. Gad was confused. “Uh… isn’t that a good thing?” Gad asked. “Not if we want to take them alive.” Ice replied. Granted, We might still be able to do it-” “But that would take too long, potentially giving the cultists time to escape.” Draco said. “We don’t have time to take Twilight and Solar down and catch the cultists before they escape.” “Are we absolutely sure the cultists can escape? We might have them backed into a corner.” Light Peice offered.
Night shook his head. “No; If they knew we’d come after them, they would have fled, not retreated back into the caves. Not unless they had another escape route down there.”
The whole group was quiet for a moment. “So… we have to let them go.” Nature finally said. “We can’t save the Prince and Princess and get the cultists.” “Well… Maybe…” Said a certain blue hippogriffin. Everyone looked at Zooks.He wilted a bit under their attention. “Uh… um…” “Look out, everypony! My brother is going to come up with the best plan ever!” Gad said as he put his arm on Zooks’ back reassuringly. Zooks gave a not-quite-sure smile. 
Tumblr media
“Right… well, uh… We could get past Midnight-Eclipse with a teleport spell, right?” Ice shook his head. “Not gonna work; Twilight would detect that, and then we’d be caught between them and the cultists.” “Right!” Zooks said, with no sign of discouragement. “So we’ll need to keep her distracted while we’re doing it.” “I’m not sure giving her a good book to read would work, Hippogriffin,” Phoenix said. “In this state, They’re dead-set on killing Draco and taking the throne.”
“Exactly,” Zooks said, “Draco could be our distraction.”
All eyes stared incredulously at Zooks, Except for Draco, who was looking thoughtful.
“Sorry, are you suggesting we abandon our prince to fight a corrupted, two-headed alicorn alone?” Light piece demanded.
Zooks wilted again. “Uh, well… when you put it like that…”
“It’s a good plan.”
Everyone looked to Draco, who was nodding appreciatively.
“You can’t possibly be considering…” Light said.
“I’m doing more than that, Light.” Draco replied.
“At least let us leave you with some backup, Your highness!” Phoenix said.
Draco shook his head. “You’ll need all the forces you have to take on the cultists. Don’t forget, they were organized enough to take you by surprise once already. You can’t risk being outnumbered once you get there, especially without Alicorn backup. Besides, this battle won’t be pretty, and any force you could spare would be at risk of becoming collateral damage.”
Phoenix sputtered wordlessly, clearly not liking where this plan was going, but not having anything more to say. Light simply had her muzzle agape at Draco, and Ice and Night seemed to be having a conversation between each other composed entirely of worried stares. Nature was the only pony who seemed to be nodding in agreement.
“Let me make this clear,” Draco said, “This is no longer a discussion. I will face my grandchildren, alone, to give you all enough time to capture the cultists. Is that clear?”
“Sir, yes sir!” Came the unified replies of the knights, even if some of their faces still held concern for their general.

In Nox’s fearscape
@ask-gadzooks
Nox found herself alone In an endless expanse of a white void stretching in every direction. She felt disoriented.
"Where am I?, some sort of pocket dimension?, where is Gad and Zooks?, what was I doing last?, why can’t I remember?"
She decided that worrying about that could wait, she should get back to her own universe first. However, though she attempted many ways of getting out of said void ,from teleportation, ripping a tear in the veil of the spirit realm with her scythe, to creating a portal with her magic, Nothing seemed to work; as if the realm itself was preventing any sort of escape.  Desperate, she then tried calling out to her companions.
"Gad, Zooks?"
However, she got no response. just an empty silence. She slowly began to panic, fear setting in as this void brought up memories of when she was trapped in stasis and within her own mind as a filly.
in her panic, she felt she had to go in a direction, any direction, she had to find her companions!
She ran, terrified of being isolated and alone once again called out in a frightened voice.
“Gad? Zooks? Where are you!?” She kept running and running till her legs grew tired and she collapsed onto the ground, tumbling as she was not able to slow herself down.
She knew not how far she had run, but she still had not seen or heard any sign of her companions. She then laid down, curled up in a ball, and began crying, hopelessness setting in and the realisation of her current situation fueled by her fears began to take control.
"No this can't be happening again! last time it took nearly a millennium for me to get out, and I was only a filly then! my friends, my family… almost all of them will be gone and.. with everyone who will be still alive..will they forget about me again? Will I forget them? Mom… Aunt Celestia, I can't forget you again! Not again… I don't want to be alone again!"

@ask-gadzooks: You... have a messed up idea of what constitutes liking someone.
Inuyasha: What? No I don't!
Inuyasha: I never said I liked anyone like that!
Inuyasha: That's just what stallions who like me are like!

Sorry I keep going for the easy low-hanging fruit of drama and asks from frequent-flier blogs with well-established assets. In my defense... Suzaku took a LOT to draw. I'm eternally glad Inuyasha's only a half-kirin because the whole kit and kaboodle is a lot of design bits between the mane, the scales, the extra fetlocks, the horn, it's all so many extra little bits. Also NGL, I am a big fan of his freaky eyes.

@taakosleftshoe this was from a class assignment where we had to assemble a presentation for a comic -- we were allowed to do work from per-existing scripts, so I chose Eathersea. I did a few sheets of the cast, a splash page and a few (poorly done) comic pages. For your consideration, here is the package -- spelling errors, poor lighting, bad layout, and all. Enjoy.

Slowly making their way through the Ancient Forest, walking over muddy paths made nigh impenetrable by heavy rainfall, a cloaked figure struggled to keep dry a small piece of paper; and written on it were naught but a pair of names, Beings they hoped could lead them to answers they had long sought.
All they could do now was to move forward, holding on to the hope that the weather would change for the better, but also that the muddy path they walked on would actually lead them out of the Forest; and they still had to reach their destination for tonight before they headed whither they knew not.
The tiniest speck of light was that the weather hid them from the beasts of the Forest that stalked their prey from the shadows; but the cloaked traveller was armed, and even in the utter darkness of the night, they did not fear these beasts, for they had seen vile monsters far worse than anything.
To their relief, the cloaked figure noticed an open area some distance away, and headed towards it, making sure to watch their every step to avoid falling over, or injuring themselves; and as soon as they stepped outside of the boundaries of the Ancient Forest, the torrent of rain abruptly stopped.
Since their path through the Ancient Forest had terribly exhausted them, the cloaked figure decided to catch their breath for a moment; so they took a seat on a nearby tree stump, where they took off their cloak, and squeezed as much water out of their mane as they could, while avoiding their note.
The blond-maned Being only sighed deeply, and shook their head as they looked at the Forest, before they set off towards the nearest town under cover of night; fortunately, they saw their destination over a hill in the distance, as the light of the Moon faintly lit up the spire of Ponyville Palace.
It had been a long time since they last visited this town, but since their friend told them that it was the best place to meet the two Brothers she spoke of, they trusted her; and they simply ignored the unfounded worries that popped up in their mind, that tried to claim she never sent the letters.
When they once again felt solid road beneath their hooves, the figure breathed a sigh of relief and quietly encouraged themselves that they were nearly there; but on their way towards town, they made sure to check their equipment, and the book they brought along with them in particular, for damage.
Luckily, their cloak had managed to shield everything from the rain, save for their mane, which now started to make them feel cold; so after they put everything in their satchel, they quickened their pace, for although they could instantly dry themselves, they would only do so at their destination.
At the edge of town, they were glad to see the streets were almost entirely empty, but they did not understand why the same sight unnerved them as well; so, struggling to keep their thoughts in line, they closed their eyes as they passed through town, until they bumped into the doors of the Palace.
As they rubbed their aching chin, the doors to the Palace slowly opened, revealing a Purple Dragon, who excitedly asked the sky-blue Kirin to enter; and as Spike flew ahead of the Kirin, he told them that a few friends had arrived earlier that evening, who were waiting in the Library with Twilight.
The Dragon-Pony warmly greeted them as the Kirin entered the Library, and made introductions:
"Gad, Zooks, this is Healthy Light, a close friend of mine." "And Light, these are Gad and Zooks, the two Hippogriffin Brothers I mentioned!"
(Thanks for reading this bonus! If you'd like a story of your own, feel free to send a request!) (Thanks ever so much to ask-gadzooks as well, as I'm very much looking forward to this collab!)
Featuring: Gad and Zooks from @ask-gadzooks Nox Lunarwing from @nox-lunarwing

felt like drawing my favourite skylander from each element. just for fun, i guess.
i'm really happy with how the lineart turned out so i've stuck the lineart on its own under the cut if for some reason someone feels like colouring it in in their own style (if by some chance you end up colouring it please show me!)

got one with a white background and one with a transparent background.
