this one made me so sad to draw!! 😭 the only things in his life before this were Stan and Ashes, and now that stan is dead and ashes no longer has their clutches on miel, he's in a completely new world, unable to fully communicate. he's been through hell and back but nothing scared him like this orz

when rescue registers as trauma.

stan is dead and miel is in an unfamiliar hospital, unable to regulate himself no matter how many hours pass. painless torture is far too much.

#whumptober2025, day 6: medical restraints

#art #illustration #oc #whump cw scars, captivity, stockholm syndrome

an illustration in deep blue, black, red, and whitee, of Miel fully restrained to a hospital bed, viewed from above. Miel is small and emaciated, with long black hair in a ponytail and a loose hospital gown. He's covered in old scars, and he's crying, his expression extremely distressed as he cries for Stan. His restraints include shoulder straps, biceps, wrists, ankle, a lap belt, and mitts. He's visibly struggling against them.

Off to the side, nurses speak to him and each other.

dialogue:

Miel: "He..help! Stan…!"

Nurse 1 to Miel: "I understand you're scared, honey… we want to keep you safe."

Nurse 2 to Nurse 1: "This breaks my heart. It's like he thinks he's been kidnapped…"

Nurse 1 to Nurse 2: "Yeah… restraints really aren't helping. But every time we loosen them he tries to harm himself… so…"

Nurse 2: "I just don't know what to do for him… He keeps crying for Kansawa, even with everything they found in their house."

Nurse 1: "It sounds like it's all the poor boy knew. Wouldn't be surprised if he was conditioned to feel affection for his captor."

Nurse 2: "I just hope he wears himself out soon… Anyway, keep an eye on the bruising, hopefully no breaks. Just try to talk to him."

Nurse 1: "Yeah, I've got it from here. Have a good night."

Zhen began existing one year ago as of yesterday!

Sketch of Zhen, a gangly woman with long thick hair and piercings on her nipples and bellybutton, lying back in bed while holding a vibrator wand to her soft, squished down cock. Her foreskin is bunching around the vibrator. Her other hand clenches the bedsheets and her head is thrown back with moans.

Sketches of Zhen. The main one is of her lying down on her front while clutching her head nervously. Her feet are sorta kicking up and squeezing together. Her somewhat erect cock lies between her thighs, mostly obscured by her leg. Another sketch is just of her from the side, still on her front and looking flustered. Then there’s a jokey doodle of Zhen as a deer feasting on zyns.

Tiny doodle of a naked Zhen exclaiming “I’m one years old!”

whumptober day 4: iron rod

flashback to Gekiyaku and Kazehiki AU

when the monster laid his hands on Kazehiki was when Gekiyaku broke. She killed him and packed her brother in a wagon, blood boiling and tears falling as she walked to the church on the outskirts.

#art #illustration #vocaloid

an lineart illustration with a sketch background, featuring young orphans Gekiyaku and Kazehiki. Gekiyaku is pulling Kazehiki in a small child's wagon, holding a bloody iron pipe with an expression of raw rage as she cries and trudges forward. She is small, about 9 years old, and she is walking with bare, dirty feet, bruises and bloody hands, her dress torn and pattered with blood. Kazehiki, about 5, is curled up in the wagon, crying with his hands brought up to his face as they walk. His clothes are ripped and he's missing a baby tooth.

whumptober day 3: found family

Kit, Ezra, and Ryder hide out, waiting for an opportunity to escape after a deal gone wrong; Ezra was dragged into it, and now, their only option is to call Damien: Kit's pimp and the man who has all of them under his thumb.

#art #illustration #oc #whump

a dark and moody illustration of three men, Kit, Ryder, and Ezra, hiding out in a trashed apartment, littered with debris. Kit sits on the right side of the image, curled into himself on the floor with a backpack and his knife. Kit is small and thin in ripped black jeans, black boots, and a tight black sweater, with split-dyed shag hair, blonde on his right and black on his left.

Ezra sits on a cardboard box in the corner of the room, closest to camera center. He is large and soft with a red-brown medium middle-part shag, wearing a black hoodie gray jeans, and sneakers. he is holding a phone, tapping the screen.

Ryder is standing by the open window, leaning out slightly and viewed from the back. his thick long black hair is pulled back and messy, and he's wearing a black hoodie, patched black jeans, and nikes. each of them are surrounded by a hatching glow.

the coloring is a green-blue-gold gradient map, a haunting grimy, rainy city palette.

the dialogue reads as follows:

Ryder, out the window and to himself: "can't keep fucking doing this…"
Ezra, to both: "I'm calling Damien." "We're on our own getting outta here, but he'll send a ride for Kit."

Kit, to Ezra: "Whatever. But I don't wanna hear that asshole's voice."

an illustration of a deer boy tangled up in a net trap, he's flushed and panting, tangling himself up further as he struggles. in the foreground, a figure with a knife is approaching. it's unclear if their intent is to help or hurt.

whumptober 2025, day 2: prophecy

portrait of gage, a self fulfilling prophecy!!

#art #illustration #whumptober2025 #oc cw abuse, scars

a bust portrait of gage with brown skin, light blue eyes, and black hair in grayscale, overlaid with a chaotic blue/red/purple gradient map. Gage appears battered and scarred and exhausted, his expression and posture neutral as he's surrounded by a background of distorted quotes of things he has said, and other things said to him in the past, both traumatic and uplifting. each of these things paints him as a self fulfilling prophecy. the quotes are overlaid on a cracked wall image with alcohol ink texture, and a heavy chromatic aberration and RGB shift.

Rancid bastard got a bloody nose

A young man in a Terrifier t-shirt glares at the camera. A snarl curls over his lips as blood flows down from his nose to stain his mouth and teeth. White hair falls over his eyes, long and messy. An older man stands behind him, his large tattooed hand cupping the boy’s face. His thumb smears blood across his cheek while the ink on his fingers spells out “down”.

whumptober day 1: lamb to the slaughter

gage is in ashes' hands for the next few nights. he knows better than to run

proved to myself i can whump him day of !!

#oc #art #illustration #whumptober2025 cw implied abuse, captivity, scars

whumptober day 1: led to slaughter. an illustration of gage and a masked captor from Ashes walking towards camera right, into the main building after gage has been captive. gage is small and extremely thin with scarred brown skin, light blue eyes, and black curly hair, his lip scar prominent. he is wearing a dirty tank top and black underwearing, barefoot and nude otherwise. he has a black rope tied around his neck, led by a leash. His face is forward, his expression tired, not reacting. he's used to this.

the Ashes captor is in a black hoodie, jeans, gloves, and a balaclava, holding the black rope and leading Gage off screen. his posture is stark and strong but not urgent. they all know gage knows better by now.

the characters are illustrated over a cc0 photo background of the wall of an abandoned warehouse, with wide boarded windows/loading bays and overground vegetation.

the color palette is a gradient mapped muted complementary blue/yellow/orange.

t4t boot humping yayayay
(Kelly and middle-aged!Zhen)

#ocnsfw #ocs #t4t

In the upper left corner is a sketch of Kelly sitting down wearing untied boots. He has a mischievous face, and his arms are covered in self-harm scars + a phallo RFF scar. The main drawing to the right is of Zhen humping a vibrator wand strapped to Kelly’s boot. She is middle-aged here, with saggy skin and white streaks in her hair. She’s desperately clutching at Kelly’s legs and her cum is all over the vibe and Kelly’s boot. Kelly is smugly looking down at her and holding her chin in his hand. He’s shirtless, exposing his top surgery scars with no nipples. The dialogue reads:
Zhen: “I’m tired. I-I can’t…”
Kelly: “Ha! You told me you wanted to cum, now give me another 5 of ‘em.”

lineart version as well

a one panel comic featuring multiple emotional registers, depicting Ryder giving a half-conscious Kit a sternal rub.

they are sitting in a dark bedroom against the side of a bed. this is lineart of the first image with some grayscale details. the text bubbles are in separate values, noting differences betwen Ryder and Kit's dialogue bubbles.

Kit's two-toned blond and black hair is mussed and sweaty, eyes half-open in a thousand yard stare. His pale white skin is sweaty, lips smeared with cum. His lips are parted in slow, shaky breaths as he wakes up from having his drink spiked with GHB. His body language is simultaneously limp yet rigid, his legs delicately draped over Ryder's thigh while his thin arms lay limp in his lap

Ryder is broader and more muscular in comparison to Kit, cradling him with his bruised knucked pressed into Kit's breastbone. Ryder is crying, his expression wide and fearful, almost looking up at the boy in his arms. His long thick black hair is pulled into a messy ponytail and sweat is running down his brown skin, his black tank and dark jeans dirtied.

dialogue:

RYDER: "Kit… Don't fucking do this—"
"This sucks, I know… Just… Open your god damn eyes…."
"Please. Please Kit… Stay with me, babe…"

"WAKE THE FUCK UP!"
KIT: "KH—!" "Fuck…" "Ryder"

RYDER: "KIT! Holyshit…"

"That's it, Kitty. Talk to me. Stay with me."
"I've got you. You're safe. You're gonna be alright.
