POV you want to be a part of your matesprit's life but his clown religion has creative requirements you can't grasp and he gives you this look moments before psychically blasting you with the chucklevoodoos and goes rootin' around in your subconscious like a raccoon in a trashcan.

Get brain blasted idiot.

Rushed scribble of Milo using his funky abilities on Dusk, might scribble more when I'm not tired, hungry and my hand doesn't hurt anymore. I'd love to draw the weird pocket dimension he drags people into mentally.

Turns out the brain blasting might've worked.

Not pictured: Milo smooching the fuck out of Dusk till he had to re-do the make-up.

That's not funny Dirk, not even on an ironic level.

Fools, you keep crying for the wind to stop blowing, while you must learn to steel yourself against them... or just download a fucking mod it's not cheating, it's not shameful, Team Cherry wont come to your door and say you have a small dick it's fine.

I love the Hollow Knight community malding and seething so bad I've seen SEVERAL half hour (or longer) videos about Groal the Great and getting upset at Team Cherry refusing to nerf Bilewater but my ass is used to Hussie's shenanigans and I've been conditioned against questionable design choices.

Stay Weird Portland! 🔥 Today Portland had an emergency naked bike ride to the ICE facility. IN THE RAIN.

It was around 50°. Thousands were fully nude, half nude, or wearing costumes.

Portland is VERY dedicated to exposing the absurdities of injustice.

Here are some photos & videos. 🧵👇🏼

I wanted to add more filigree but it didn't look very flattering. His pain is a lot more complex which checks out cause he's a perfectionist with high standards for himself but what Dusk doesn't know is that it's going turn some heads at the clown church function.

Dutch Strider (Umbra) @umbraborealis.bsky.social · 2d

Yes, if you look at Dusk's reference his aspect is Blood, but Dusk is far more complex and though this is a spoiler kinda, it's far into the future of my project. Dusk only thinks Blood is his aspect because of his horns. CLEARLY he's a Vantas! what else would he be?...right?

Dutch Strider (Umbra) @umbraborealis.bsky.social · 2d

Dusk's facepaint is a smidge inspired by Milo yes, but it's born out of the one thing Dusk doesn't doubt about himself and that's his love for Milo. It's design is meant to look a bit mechanical as well, a vague artistic reference to his aspect (Time)

Headmate prefixes:

Host - Umbra
🎪- Kurloz (he/him)
❤️- Calyso (he/they)
🐴- Dirk (he/him)
🏹- Equius (he/they/she, but prefers they/them)

There's more, but the top ones are more likely to talk.
No emoji = host is talking.

🏹 I need to say this. We saw someone call him a 'dungeon dom by night' and while that thoroughly amuses me and might be true to some extend, this man is a switch. This man is the prettiest, submissive little show pony the second a purple blood shows up.

Yes I've seen the Beforan ancestors, our Equius has been having a great time critiquing Beforan Equius lovingly, going on about 'secret life? with that outfit? who's he trying to hide it from?'

Hussie cooked, and it wasn't no 1 star meal.

E%emplar Danklook (Equius): Damn, he's hitting that bong! He styling on us! He's posing for the motmerfucking fans!

Lamplady Swansong (Vriska): She's florence fucking nightingale? damn! Also, it'd be funny if she's blind AND Beforan Terezi wasn't.

The Rankmaid (Aradia): Hard ass fits, as usual with Megidos. Also, being the author of how to draw manga answers a question we all had, right?
