Yeah, some of the textures that the patches upgrade include reverting Jess's alternate outfits to their original looks 😅

Fitting that Jessica Albert (Dragon Quest 8) would come up for the Mimic prompt, considering how legendary the DQ Mimics have become.

Almost as neatly as poor Jess herself is fitting into the maw of that lucky Cannibox!

Jessica Albert (Dragon Quest 8), wearing her Dangerous Bustier armor, is getting gobbled up by a Cannibox mimic chest. The 'Box has wrapped its long tongue around her torso and neck and pulled her into its open jaws so that only Jess's legs are left dangling outside of it.

Love to see an all-Right Wing halftime show; really shine a light on how culturally bankrupt that side is. Not a single musician who isn't washed-up, sucks ass, or both

Ohh, why not post another. Here's my wizard gal Fara encountering a mimic, with predictable results. For the "Vore" prompt from the 2018 Poker Prompts series!

(Fara makes her debut in the 2025 series tomorrow, and it might be my favorite sketch yet)

My OC Fara does her best to escape the Mimic that's hell-bent on having a pudgy wizard for dinner, and it's not giving up very easily!

I swear I live right on the border of "New Piedmont" and "Deep South." Go 10 minutes north and you'll find cosmopolitan shopping, pride flags and campaign signs for progressive candidates. 10 minutes south, and it's all combo gas/grill/bait joints, Confederate flags and TRUMP 2028 billboards

This is the most accurate depiction of the Midwest to date. Wichita has always felt like the last Midwest city while also being the first plains city.

You're telling me that the CEO of Apple, who just a few short months ago presented Trump with a gold-and-glass trophy for essentially raw-dogging the economy, is a dick-rider who's working as an agent for a fascist administration? Whoda thunk

Poor Jessica. She was in the character list for the 2019 round of Poker Prompts, and ended up getting slurped on by a monster for a Bad End prompt.

I just started DQ8 on the Retroid (using the 3DS version with soundtrack & texture upgrade patches), so I was looking forward to drawing her!

Jessica Albert (Dragon Quest 8) is tangled up in the tongue of a hungry, horny Lips monster. She's just barely managing to keep her Divine Bustier armor on. A status box in the lower left informs us that she's out of MP and only 5HP away from needing a Resurrection at the nearest church.

Done for Poker Prompts 2019 for the "Bad End" prompt.

The Brainless Quarter-Wit: "Ooo, the Teslabot looks so cool with TRON colors!"

The enlightened wizard: "Black and red is the color scheme for the villain programs, naturally Musk, the dullest edgelord in the high school, would put it on his failure of a product"

Had a ticket reserved, was prepared to boo when Jim Donaldson's gormless mug popped up on screen, but nah, fuck all this- ticket refunded.

Like, using genAI is bad enough, but specifically Grok/XAi? In THIS climate? Throw this marketing department into the chipper

Track down TRON: Uprising, pretend that that's the canon end of the series.

Who am I talking to who's THAT invested in the TRON franchise anyhow

I was cool on the movie when they announced that it stars professional load Jared Leto, I was officially out when they announced the MrBeast cameo, but Jesus Christ, they're really trying to make this the least on-my-shit movie with the most on-my-shot aesthetic. Profoundly disappointing.

You usually hear of aliens doing the abducting, but @atomictiki.bsky.social 's ET gal Zuzi has been kidnapped by monster nurse Yuukai to serve as the specimen for some no-doubt-important tickle research!

#Kinktober2025

Nurse Yuukai, monster specialist in the field of monster medicine, checks a chart while using her back tentacles (tentickles?) to tickle the green off of the tricloptic alien girl Zuzi. Thanks to some sturdy bindings, there's little poor Zuzi can do about her plight but chuckle 'til the tests are done.

3DS: Azahar

GBA: mGBA core in RetroArch)

I set mine up using Russ from Retro Game Corps' RP5 guide. It's long, but he shows you everything you need to do to go from fresh-out-the-box to all-tricked-out.

(Only difference is I'm using Azahar for 3DS for dual-screen support)

When oh WHEN will I learn to draw these friggin' hairpin lines on their own layer so I can select the hair without having to fill in the blanks -_-

The tiara-shaped hairpin of a character I draw way too often to forget to put the arcs on their own layer because they break up the hair shape when using the Select tool, jeez.
