Commission For @batiful !! It Was Super Fun To Make, I Loved Working With You In Such A Fun Prompt!!

I posted these on reddit a while ago and I've gotten multiple messages asking if I had any other social media? Which I didn't at the time, but after years of not bothering to post my art I think that was the boost I needed to finally re-emerge from the rock I've been living under.

ANYWAY uhhhhhh I've drawn these guys so much since I posted this that they might look a little different when I eventually post my newer art of them. Mostly because I don't bother drawing the little crosses on their heads anymore besides on leshy because frankly the antennae are really funny. If anyone has any questions about my hcs or what I intend to do with the characters, my ask box is open and I don't have anything better to do than endlessly ramble about gods that 100% would rip my head off immediately if I ever encountered them!

SPEAKING OF WHICH, the reception I got for these on reddit was way more positive than I was expecting which I am immensely grateful for, but there was definitely some miscommunication about the afab shamura headcanon so I'm just gonna dump about that below the cut if you want to hear me ramble about my nonbinary-ness for a while:

OKAY SO it's canon that the bishops were feral little animals before they found their crowns, right? Leshy and Shamura both talk about it during their follower quests. Feral animals do not have a concept of gender, only biological sex, so if they ascended to sapient godhood they would suddenly have a grasp of gender. My hc is that Shamura was a female feral spider, ascended to godhood, lost their bio sex in the process as with all the other bishops, and was just like "you know what? I don't want to be anything. This is kinda swag actually" so they just became War and Grief and Cosmic Horror incarnate. I am fucking desperate for any relatable enby representation in the media I like, so I just want to clarify me saying they were female at some point just is me going "I am living vicariously through this character who shed their mortal flesh prison to be an eldritch spider war god devoid of any sex characteristics" and not "I'm one of those numerous people who for some reason lumps this canonically agender character in with a binary sex". Anyway thank you for reading this far, here's an unfinished voidpunk shamura from a pride flag color palette thing I did of the bishops:

Fanart for subnatica

None of these fish can be in the mushroom forest. But in my painting they can :3

Just saw this and oh my god. It makes me love Leshy more

This worm is autistic and there is nothing you can do about it.

I keep seeing this headcanon floating around, and I really am inclined to agree. Whether intentional or not, Leshy is quite possibly the single most autistic-coded character in Cult of the Lamb. Evidence:

He has a visible motor tic in-game with the little head twitch thing that he does.

The volume of his voice is inconsistent, alternating between average and LOUD.

When first encountering a would-be sacrifice in Darkwood, the swordsman says that Leshy is "hungry." This is noteworthy because Gods don't seemingly need to eat, implying sensory-seeking behavior on his part.

As further evidence of sensory-seeking, in the short that the above screenshot comes from, when given a flower, he eats it. Enthusiastically.

In this same short, he's cooking just fine until he becomes enamored with a butterfly, a moving object, fluttering by his head.

They had him working a grill. It's practically spelled out at this point.

Could I cook the squid

What about a cooking lesson with Heket herself ?

Way way back I drew a comic explaining what we really mean by ‘The Autism Spectrum’ and posted it here back when Tumblr was Huge. Then the comic really blew up!! Last year I did a remake of the comic, with some updated language, and using Mia, a character from a graphic novel I made. Figured I’d share for Autism Acceptance Month!

Oh?

An egg is about to hatch! Reblog to get a random Pokemon in your ask/message inbox! ✨

Your art is like macaroni and cheese. I devour it each time I see it

BACK! BACK!! GIT!!

You can see I take drawing seriously

does lamb genuinely love narinder and their children? like- wholeheartedly?

i feel like that question has already been answered in narinder's case but i'm curious about your lamb.

Lamb does loves Narinder and their children with their whole heart, endlessly devoted and unconditionally.

Bonus background without lamb.
