@motherbugmoart requested Red & Snyk angst in the “my wife fucking left me” palette from @m-chromatic‘s palette challenge. @kuroshiro101 and @archiarthur referenced the meme, though, and I couldn’t help but take it in a more silly direction asdlfjsadlljksad I think I’m pretty happy with it! Thanks to everyone who helped inspire this piece! -^^-
More using @m-chromatic‘s shit poo poo palettes: Renegade in “dinner,” Drifter in “the depression,” and Stitch in “bee yourself.”
I wanna do a full illustration for Renegade with that lemon, like the Skronk & Bee drawing, but I did this as a color test first just to see how I might use the palette :3c and decided to add Dust and Stitch so I’ve got all the boys with @spookyflavors in these palettes. -^^-
From this list!
Quirk - Some random ability they have that’s beneficial in a relationship.
Kennyo's monk training has given him a number of skills that are useful in a relationship: being a good listener, staying calm, expressing gratitude (and the strength and flexibility don't hurt, either ;3). But perhaps the most quirky is his ability to raise his body temperature through sheer force of will. If his partner gets cold, especially on long winter nights, he can warm them right up through cuddling.
Romance - How romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o happy? Cliché or rather creative?
Kennyo takes any opportunity to write love poems and notes for his partner. Holidays, the changing of seasons, a patch of rain-watered flowers catching his eye -- any and all such things give him the excuse and inspiration to express his love in writing. For special occasions, he'll work painstakingly on the poem for weeks, maybe even months, to get it just right. But for the smaller everyday occurrences, the love notes are shorter and more whimsical, although no less sweet.
Kennyo also pays a lot of attention to atmosphere. Once he knows his lover's favorite colors, scents, flowers, or motifs, he'll make sure to incorporate such elements into their shared home, especially their bedroom, and/or he'll take his lover to places where those elements can be enjoyed. Similarly, Kennyo pays a lot of attention to his lover's mood, and he'll bring gifts or take his lover to a special place to accentuate what they're feeling. As much as possible, he wants his partner to be able to experience a beautiful world where they can freely feel joy, wonder, excitement, peace, comfort, or even cathartic sadness, and the right setting can go a long way towards facilitating those emotions.
Support - Are they helping their s/o achieve their goals? Do they believe in them?
Kennyo has the utmost faith in his partner and takes an active role to support them. He's a scholar at heart, so he'll learn everything he can about what they want to achieve, out of genuine interest as well love. He'll ask questions, help plan required steps, and regularly check in with his lover's progress. He'll also make sure they have access to any materials or connections necessary. Being a keen diplomat and the leader of the most widespread Buddhist sect in Japan comes with some benefits. If the goals are dangerous to pursue, his partner will unfortunately have to contend with Kennyo wanting to create as many safety measures as possible.
Ultimately, since his lover's happiness is what's most important to him, he is willing to respect the boundaries of someone who wants more independence in pursuing their interests -- though truly dangerous pursuits will probably need a bit of compromise around safety checks.

5 am thoughts: It's fun seeing monsters written from the UTMV as really powerful and dangerous, pretty much always in the context of romance fics, but every time I do see it, I can't help but think about Asgore and Sans, and even Undyne at her most determined, getting merc'd by a child. About how not a single human soul was taken in the war between humans and monsters, while "countless monsters" were turned to dust.
What I'm saying is the first time a Bad Sans ran into an adult human who regularly hurts people for their own benefit and/or amusement (and there are...lots of them), they'd get their shit wrecked. Nightmare and Error aren't actually monsters, but as long as they're operating within the UTMV, I'm applying UT's mythos and themes to them. Outside of natural disasters, humans are the most powerful destructive force in the (multi-)universe and everything hinges on whether we choose kindness or cruelty.
Horror could be dusted by a Karen and that's just the sad facts of the metaphysics Toby Fox laid out for us.
If anything, the scary skeleton bfs need their human lovers to protect them in a world where they're no longer going up against beings made primarily of love, hope, and compassion.
Sketches of Snyks with various @popatochisssp boys~
(So many stories I'd like to tell if only I could bring myself to actually, like, write anything ;lasfl;jasd;la;sldf)
Commissioned @lilli-chae for a theme for Snyk and I am absolutely in love with it 😭💖💖💖 It’s so pretty and uplifting and just makes me really happy to listen to.
Chae is a delight of a person and I very much recommend checking out their comms if you’re interested in custom music or covers/remixes of your favorite songs!
My Swap Papyrus, Taffy :3c
Taffy’s presence is like a warm, fluffy blanket. He’s almost always got positive vibes, and he’s content to move slowly through life, wearing a kind of sleepy smile. Taffy’s generally soft-spoken, but he does tend to say whatever pops into his head without thinking too much about it -- for better and worse.
He always has suckers in his pockets to give to people (and of course to suck on himself). Unsurprisingly, he really loves candy, desserts, and especially pancakes.
While there's some of that sadness and existential nihilism underneath, he's mostly adjusted to it and has decided to just go with the flow and focus on the present rather than planning for or thinking about the future. Because of this and his relaxed, type-B nature overall, Taffy’s not a particularly ambitious person.
As a partner, he's very physically and verbally affectionate, and loves to be casually touching or holding his partner. Since he's so easy-going, he's happy to try new things with someone as long as it's not too strenuous -- he might not be up for a real hike, but he’d be happy to do a slow, wandering nature stroll. If you want to just relax and do nothing, he’s definitely your guy.
One of his big weaknesses is that he has trouble communicating if something is wrong. He doesn't like conflict and isn’t very assertive, and he doesn't like "burdening" anyone when he's not feeling like a perfectly contented, zen dude. It’s the kind of thing that can cause things to pile up and make him try to go numb inside if he doesn't learn to deal with it more constructively.
Had fate played out differently and Kennyo allied with the Oda Forces, or joined the Takeda-Uesugi alliance without his brothers killed and Hongan-Ji razed first, or was simply a neutral party hanging out in either Azuchi or Kasaguyama Castle, this might be what he thinks of everyone (I guess it’s Kennyo’s “Another Ikemen Sengoku,” haha~):
[Pt. II: The Takeda-Uesugi Alliance]
Nobunaga still grates his nerves. Kennyo can’t stand his casual arrogance, and it doesn’t help that Nobunaga claims not to believe in the Buddha. However, he respects Nobu as a ruler who truly looks after his people, and as a keen and accomplished scholar. Underneath it all, Kennyo worries about the toll so much war is taking on Nobunaga’s soul. Some quiet nights, he seeks Nobu out to check on him and give counsel.
Masamune reminds Kennyo of Shingen at that age–but somehow, impossibly, more cocky and certainly more reckless. Expect much solemn head-shaking at Masamune’s wild shenanigans, but he’s smiling behind that cup of tea. Besides, like Shingen, Masamune is an admirably responsible ruler, and Kennyo tells him this–in the same breath as he scolds him for risking the well-being of his fief every time he insists on riding like a madman. He also can’t help but grin at Masamune’s lack of alcohol tolerance, though he offsets it with very disapproving stares for Mitsuhide.
Kennyo regularly praises Hideyoshi for his virtuous conduct, both because he genuinely holds Hideyoshi in high regard for his loyalty and altruism, and because Kennyo senses that the younger man could use the validation. Kennyo recognizes when someone just needs to be told that they’re good. He provides backup for Hideyoshi’s scolding, too–really, running in the hallways is dangerous.
Mitsunari would have made a good monk with his kindness and humility, and Kennyo worries that his spirit and talents are wasted on warfare. However, he recognizes that Mitsunari’s brilliance is crucial to the Oda forces’ ability to ultimately protect more lives. Kennyo enjoys Mitsunari’s positive presence and often joins him in studying, the two reading in companionable silence. Of course, he would contribute to the “Caring for Your Mitsunari” guide. Masamune would have to take the scroll away from him and Hideyoshi because they just can’t stop adding things.
Kennyo treats Ieyasu with solemn respect, seeming not to register the young man’s acerbic remarks. It’s not that he doesn’t notice, but he wants to afford Ieyasu his dignity. Kennyo recognizes how deeply bound up in grief Ieyasu is, and keeps an eye on him. Like with Mitsunari, Kennyo joins Ieyasu in silent studying, but with the hope that acclimating to Kennyo’s presence will allow Ieyasu to open up. (Predictably, all of this drives Ieyasu crazy.)
Like Hideyoshi, Kennyo openly disapproves of Mitsuhide’s more sadistic jests, though not as harshly. It comes from a similar place of worry, as he recognizes Mitsuhide’s self-loathing behind each taunt. He is quick to tell Mitsuhide that such games are unworthy of his intellect and talent as a diplomat, and urges him to be more forthcoming (especially to Hideyoshi) for the sake of his reputation, the Oda Forces’ unity, and most importantly, his own self-regard. Kennyo sighs heavily when Mitsuhide invariably dismisses him, but that doesn’t stop him from trying again.
Wanted to try my hand at drawing some AU boys as inspired by their canon :3c (rather than specifically BHC versions). Obviously still took some creative liberties. I’m really happy with how they came out!
Rough design concept for a Post-Killer!Sans after a Good Timeline of Something New. We never got to see what @rahafwabas [Killer's creator] would have done, but I like to imagine that with the help of his loved ones, Sans killed Chara, and was able to have the Determination extracted from his SOUL with the DT extraction machine after using Chara's SOUL with the other six break the barrier. He's not completely back to the way he was before his code was tampered with, but he's recovering and looking forward to the future. (Yes that's basically a snuggie and cutoff sweats. He's probably not going to wear them forever as his new signature look, but the man deserves to be extra comfy for a while.)
