Not My Usual Content, But I Made Something I Wanted To Share...

Not my usual content, but I made something I wanted to share...

Edit: Now with an ID from @a-captions-blog! Thank you for writing it!

[Art description: A Pokémon-themed comic featuring OP as a Pikachu. Long description follows.

1. The tips of Pikachu’s ears are shown with text that says, ‘I’m a Pikachu / My world is filled with lots of cool stuff. Sometimes it feels like anything is possible!’ Under this is a collage showing a Charizard, a Pidgeotto, a Nidoking, an Eevee, and an Ivysaur, all in the background as the Pikachu looks up in wonder. Text reads, ‘All sorts of types, all sorts of attacks, all sorts of Pokemon.’

2. Text says, ‘But...only two ways a Pikachu’s tail could look.’ Two boxes in the upper corners show the male and female Pikachu tails, respectively. The male has a rectangular end to his tale, and the female has a heart-shaped end to hers. Text continues, ‘So then, what am I?’ A large drawing of the narrator Pikachu is shown, with an arrow pointing to their tail, whose end is split somewhat like scissors and doesn’t match either the male or female drawing above.

3. Text says, ‘Too pointy to be [female], too much of a V-shape to be [male]. I thought there was something wrong with me.’ Under this are three cascading panels showing the Pikachu from below at an angle emphasizing their tail. The second panel shows mel further away, and in the final panel she have disappeared entirely. Text on the panels reads, ‘I felt / very, very, very / alone.’

4. Text says, ‘But then, something happened. I found others like me.’ The art shows the narrator reaching out to another Pikachu. Under this are three other Pikachu. One has a rounded tail, one has a tail that has been stitched up to be rectangular, and one has a tail with a slight spike at the tip.

5. Closeups are shown of each of the tails from the previous panel, with text that says, ‘Round tails, scarred tails, spiky tails.’ Under this is a drawing of the Pikachu all hugging with lightning coming from their cheeks. Text reads, ‘They told me nothing was wrong with me, and I wasn´t alone anymore.’

6. Text says, ‘There are many ways a Pikachu’s tail can look. I’ve heard there’s at least over 30 different variations.’ Under this are two panels. The first panel shows the narrator lying on their back on a background of male and female symbols. Text reads, ‘Some days are still hard.’ In the second panel, the Pikachu with the scarred tail is shown with text that says, ‘My friend tells me her tail used to look just like mine. It was taken from her.’

8. The narrator is shown sitting and looking upwards. Text reads, ‘Some trainers won’t accept Pikachu that aren’t [male] or [female]. They alter our tails without our consent. But things are getting better. We are making change. We’re fighting so that our tails will be left alone.’ Under this is a panel showing the four Pikachu running happily towards the right. Text reads, ‘We’re all on a spectrum. Every tail looks different; anything is possible.’

The final text reads, ‘This is a comic about intersex people.’ The watermark in the lower right says @ PostManic. \End descriptions

After I was shattered, you went to gather as much of me as you could. You searched for a part of me in all the little things that you cherished, all of the people who needed you, every drop at the bottom of a bottle. You looked for the best in others to find a piece of me.

You have found more of myself in others than I will ever be; I won't bother you with what little I have left.

So I'm stuck in Outer Rim purgatory right now and I know there's somewhere I'm supposed to go but I have no idea where TF it is

I've already done the flower room in The Throne and I'm pretty sure I'm at "Karma" 6, I kinda just need to know where to teleport.

Here's my current location:

I've been through the majority of Outer Rim, including the hellish journey through the path of floating platforms. I've actually somehow managed to do a full circle.

Please help me get out of here... All the food here tastes terrible and I just wanna continue my journey with as little spoilers as possible.

Why TF did they think their "find out on your own" style of gameplay would work in a teleportation maze 😭

“Tell me another story dad!”

This took longer than expected. I feel like there isn’t enough content of Asgore just being a dad.

I really love your art! Do you happen have any tips for how to draw anthro moths in the way that you do? I'm planning to make a fursona that's (mostly) a moth, but am not sure how to draw them.

Sorry this took so long to get to, here's how I generally make moths

NAAAH I KEPT SEARCHING AND IT GETS WORSE

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS

THAT DOOR LEADS INTO A COMPLETELY SEPARATE HALLWAY

Alright he has to have like, three separate entrance doors in his room that can be changed via portal to separate parts of the ship for the sake of convenience and that's why it took him so long to learn the layout.

Should the fact that I'm counting increments in alarm clock times and working nearly unnoticeable continuity errors into lore be concerning or is it a good thing I'm doing my homework?

Should I write a paragraph on how it's possible Lord Hater's closet door overlaps with his bedroom entrance in multiple separate episodes?
