WIP Wednesday

Been another moment since I wrote something, but now I have something!

Thank you to @sulphuricgrin @skyrim-forever and @moriche who tagged me in the recent WIP Wednesdays.

Tagging for sharing their WIPS: @scalecallerpeak @yansurnummu @sniperviper @sigmaelxgr @eatthatsweetroll @throughtrialbyfire

@thana-topsy (welcome back!) @pocket-vvardvark @ashyam-xivilai and YOU!

This WIP is brought to you by the Modern!AU I have. I don't think I shared anything about it, but Teldryn is owns a motorcycle shop and Yera is a dance instructor for the blind/visually impaired. There's a date night happening!

... Maybe?

--

It was with great relief that Teldryn was finally able to flip the sign on his door from “open” to “close”. Nine hours seems like a regular amount of work, but he had an unusual amount of customers coming in for drop offs and diagnosis so he had to work overtime to fill in all the orders before the weekend started. And speaking of weekends, he had plans.

Date plans to be specific. He and Yera made plans to hit up a fancy restaurant they wanted to try out and spend the weekend at his place. Teldryn even went so far as to clear his weekend so that nothing could get in the way. The two of them have been pretty steady since their chance encounter in that dog park and he wanted to make sure he took quality time with her.

Now it was time to pack up, clean up, and get dressed before heading home and picking Yera up. She still wasn’t quite comfortable on the bike yet, so he was going to trade it in for the car. He wiped his greasy hands on a shop rag and tossed it in a corner somewhere before getting to work putting his tools away. A peaceful, calming way to end his chaotic work day. If it weren’t for the fact there was a knock on his door.

The rattle of glass and his little bell made him snap his head, ready to ignore whatever customer wanted to get ‘just one question’ in. However, it was no customer at the door. It was something much. Much worse.

He stopped what he was doing to open the door for Ralis as he stumbled into the shop.

“Just caught you, sorry for being so late,” the mer panted. “Got this last minute, and needs delivering.”

No. No no no, this can’t be happening. Of all the times they send a courier out, it had to be today?

“Now? At this minute?” Teldryn asked. “I have plans, I had things I was suppose to be doing! Are there no other drivers?”

Ralis, either too stressed or unaware of Teldryn’s obvious ire, kept shaking his head and pushing the package toward him.

“No one that is close enough, or fast enough to get it done. Look, I’m sorry that I came so late, but this is important.”

It was always important, that’s why he volunteered for this work. To help, to fight against the creeping dread in the distance. But at the same time where was the time for himself? All these years working for this cause and he just wished the Three could’ve just pushed it off one more day.

With a deep breath and heavy dread in his heart, he took the damn package.

“You pass the message that there has to be more than one driver. We can’t be having this bottleneck problem.”

“Yes yes yes,” Ralis answered, relief clear across his face. “Now just get going. Here’s where it needs to go.”

Coded message sent, package secured, and the door firmly closed and lights turned off was where Teldryn was left. He could care less about the package as he held his phone with the smiling face of Yera as the lockscreen.

Finger hovering over the speed dial. Wondering if he could just… not do this.

But resistance needs people, and he chose this path.

Beep!

Teldryn swore he could hear his heartbeat through his ears, pounding against his chest and echoing across the shop walls. Unfortunately, it only got to two rings before the call was picked up.

“Hey Tel, closed up shop?” Yera answered. “I still have to leave the studio, but I’ll make it in time to my apartment and then we can meet up.”

Oh he rather be run over by a car, this was the actual worst thing to have ever happened to him in his entire life.

“Yera, hey, listen,” he started. “An emergency came up at work and I need to take care of it. I’m so. So sorry, but it couldn’t be delayed.”

There was a pause on the other side, the silence deafening as he could practically see her face drop and her shoulders droop in disappointment. The fact this was a phone call and not face-to-face was his only saving grace.

“Oh, alright,” Yera answered after a beat. “Is it bad? What happened?”

“Nothing bad, just an emergency work order that came in last minute. Got to work overnight to finish it,” he lied. “But I’ll be fine for the rest of the weekend. I promise, I’ll call you in the morning. Okay?”

A sigh, but accepting of his story. He really wished it were any other day; both of them were so excited for this dinner and now he had to be the one to call it off. He was going to strangle Ralis next time he came in late.

“Ok, just don’t overwork yourself, alright?” Yera said. “I’ll see you in the morning. Good night.”

“Good night, love.”

On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.

This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.

Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.

Because I like to bring pain and suffering to our KCD chat, I kicked the figurative door open one day and proposed that, what if, Henry wore armor for the suicide mission, so Hans would be the one helping him into it - and how it would make it crucially clear that it would be the only thing keeping Henry alive if it came to it. And how Hans couldn't do anything else than pray that it would all be enough. And the idea just stayed with me, with the allmighty lord Capon, who never did anything like this to someone else, and how it would make their roles very much reversed. On top of all that angst, of course.

So. That led me to draw this, hopefully you enjoy it!

Excellent news! These Chub Loons caught fish!

Whats up on ESO why are people requiring my character about the worm cult WHAT DID THE KING DO *AGAIN*??

[xangrr]

This game has not only resurrected my will to draw but straight up dug it from six feet under and slapped a new soul into the whole thing

So, uh, I guess kudos to these two sad boyos for what it's worth, me drawing serious comics about anything is probably one of those hell freezing over moments on top of that

Dracula roasts a chicken

A vampire bat (not a vampire) somehow drinks enough of a horse's blood to cause the horse to collapse

Dracula gets smacked in the face with a shovel

After attributing nightmares to paprika consumption, a character eats more paprika for breakfast

The heroes hire a locksmith to make their home invasion look more respectable

To prepare for raiding a vampire's lair, one character brings three small dogs

A character laments being unable to wed multiple people at once

A therapist starts speculating about elephants' souls mid-session

An official cause of death is written as "misadventure in falling from bed"

Dracula has a Krampus-esque sack that he shoves children into

A character realizes that his host has no reflection but is more concerned with shaving than investigating that

A reporter brags about his running speed mid-article

Dracula, while trying to maintain a low profile, goes by the incredibly subtle alias "de Ville"

A character is misled by phonetic spelling

A character receives three marriage proposals in one day

The SPCA tries to adopt Dracula

A doctor refers to a patient as his "pet lunatic"

We are told vampires can be defeated by putting branches on their coffins

A character gets slashed at with a knife and loot splatters on the floor, like a video game NPC

Dracula is a horsegirl

A character brings anti-vampire flowers but doesn't tell anyone the purpose of said anti-vampire flowers, which leads to another character moving them and enabling a vampire attack

A character's hair turns from dark to white literally overnight

Twice in the novel, Dracula says "Bah!" The second time is his final line of dialogue

There's a deleted scene of Dracula lying on top of the protagonist and licking him for hours

not to be a killjoy but it's still crazy to me that it's considered mean to be like "maybe you should read / play / watch the source material before creating fanworks and diving into the fandom" bc every time i see somebody going "i havent played disco elysium or know anything about it tbh but uwu here's harry and kim kissing" idk maybe you should engage with it. maybe you should play the anti-capitalist surrealist game where you investigate the murder of a mercenary who led the gang rape of a foreign girl and process that for a bit? and then you can do cutesy mlm or whatever idc. but like at the absolute bare minimum you should understand what the source material involves otherwise we get the phenomenon of people joining a dragon age server and wanting content warnings for like, mage racism. like it's fine to ship and transform the genre into whatever but if you arent comfortable with discussions of the actual source content itself then maybe the fandom isnt for you and a different one is. peace and love.
