♫ - What I’m currently listening to.
I went to my first convention this past weekend. It was definitely an experience seeing people in cosplay in real life—I even dared to dress up. While there, I came across so much inspiration for my art that sparks flew through my brain. It was definitely a much-needed trip.
So enough of that! I have finally gotten around to sketching out different ideas for Frisk. These are just rough drafts that mainly play around with hairstyles, (she will still wear the signature bangs and bob. Option B is simply my fun little way of showing her face) and skin shades. I'm open to keeping her a Simpsons yellow too so anyone can easily see themselves in her—or maybe not considering her circumstances lol!
Either way, I think it would be fun to vote on it! (once I figure out how to create a poll, that is).
The previous poll appears to be neck and neck with a suggested AU and an original AU (based on the comments and the poll numbers). We will create from scratch to keep things simple while heavily referencing Underfell, that way we are technically doing both options. Below are the results.
Thanks again to everyone who voted! Once I figure out how to embed a poll in this post I will make an edit to include it. In the meantime, if you like any of the options, feel free to comment, and your vote or suggestion will be noted.
Edit: I’m stupid, all I had to do was edit this post to get a poll in—not create a whole new one. Hahaha…
This is a super spur of the moment post, but as I go through the rewrites, I felt compelled to sketch a few of the monster prostitutes that briefly appear in chapter two. Why? I think because I'm spiraling.

Hello! It’s been 90 long neck-breaking years—or just one month, but I’m happy to be done with this round of edits for my novel.
I’m currently in a mood of absolute hatred towards that cursed book, and I just want nothing to do with it, but that could be due to all the dissection and reconstruction I had to suffer through. When I usually write fanfiction, I’ll get the rough draft done, and then do one edit (if I’m feeling pretty spicy I might do two) and then I post and instantly reap the reward of being done with a chapter for good.
With my original novel not only am I going back and do edit after edit, but I need to do it over the span of 300 pages, 70k words, and no long breaks in between. When I say I have never felt so overwhelmed by writing, well, I’ve never felt so overwhelmed by writing. And the editing is not fun on top of that, not at all, and this isn’t even the last round I need to do! And after I finish my part I still need to get a line/copywriter and then the beta readers, and then proofreader…it’s never-ending!
But, when I finally get to the end, there will be no greater feeling. I’ll feel so proud, so accomplished, because I would’ve done it. I would’ve published my own novel, and that alone reminds me that all this torturous work is well worth it.
There will be a new post for Fawn soon. Getting this project done will allow me to let out a major sigh of relief, because damnit, if I could just get a single chapter of a comic done that would be super ultra amazing. Once I finish with chapter 1, I’ve been debating changing course and trying to create a comic rendition of my Sonic fic—but God, if my Sonic Character drawing skills say hell no! Let’s not even…
Oh! And I almost forgot to include a song.
tumblr has the dumbs in asks.
Typical Tumblr…*shakes head*.
Chara, as the split personality, could still play a significant role, in my opinion. I vaguely recall her taking command once she was alone in the house and proceeding to search for weapons and plot potential escape routes. I believe that if Gaster's cult remains as it was, it would certainly spice things up if Gaster began noticing total 180s in Frisk's demeanor through his cameras. It could be like a psychological game in which the two try to outwit each other. Chara wants out, G wants control
I really like this! You also make a good point about Chara occasionally taking over to attempt to escape, and I did originally have plans regarding her killing Papyrus when I first started writing Lugubriousity. Not to say that she will or won’t since that would be spoiling the story!
Thanks a lot for the suggestion. I think we’ll keep Chara as a voice in Frisk’s head.
And here is Asgore...two weeks later lol.

The title in the image does not say "Ai", but "AL". I just now noticed that it looks that way lol.
As I continue to update "The Worst Kinda Curse", I thought creating some concept art for Alphys' father, Al, would be fun. In the fic, he's described as big and imposing, but I have this habit of humanizing the monsters. So, I gave him two forms just to visually play around with different ideas. I like his color scheme as it reminds me of a rooster.
Would anyone care to see more sketches of characters from that story? I might make a few for "The Salt Circle" too.

As I am preparing to sketch out the last scene for chapter one, I have been reading through highlight chapters in Lugubriosity. This chapter had particularly caught my eye since we get a bit more insight on Papyrus’ crimes. Only Papyrus didn't abusing several children alone, he had help.
Which brings me to one question; how involved was Undyne really?
I’d like to imagine someone who doesn't already have pedophilic tendencies wouldn't dare to help in such horrendous crimes regardless if they wanted to impress their emotionally abusive mother. In other words, Undyne was likely a pedophile as well, perhaps one who didn't have a strict child attraction. Should this be explored more in Fawn? It isn't typical for females to develop such a paraphilia, and even less likely for them to act on them, but then again, working with Papyrus had provided her with plenty of opportunities to offend.
Perhaps Undyne isn't a pedophile but just a heartless sociopath with no care for the well being of children—only she's depicted as showing guilt in this chapter.
Ah, musings, musings.
Anyway, I thought I’d show some of the more animal victims of the two. We have Hunny and two unnamed girls. Should they also be present in Fawn, or should Papyrus have only one victim and that being Frisk? Maybe Frisk isn’t his first, but rather the one that he fell in love with? Maybe Papyrus and Undyne developed their friendship through their lust of little girls? Maybe, just maybe.
hope things are going well!
I am so sorry for the past 2 weeks of silence! I was bit by the writing bug as I was in the middle of drawing page 3 that I had to stop everything and write a few things down...and a few things turned into a few pages, that turned into a few chapters, and now I'm about half way through a rough draft for an original novel!
That said, this project is not dead! I just needed to unplug for a bit to keep my focus in check. I hope to return to drawing after I finish this draft (just 9 more chapters currently). Once I'm done we'll pick up where we left off, and I'll make an attempt to at least get through the first two scenes before falling off the map again. Fingers crossed!
I swear I suck at accountability.
so when does sans get his crush on papyrus?
Good question. I’d say that, just like in Lugubriousity, Sans will have a thing for his brother starting in adolescence. I don’t know if he should abuse him (like he apparently did in the previous story, but it’s hard to tell if Papyrus was a reliable narrator when he was ranting about what Sans did to him in this chapter). Depending on the AU, their relationship might be a little rocky or completely septic.
Perhaps Sans gets high to numb his guilt.
hope your doing great and you got those beta readers!
Aww this is a such a sweet comment! Thank your for checking up on me. I am currently on a birthday road trip/camping and so far it’s going great—if not a bit horrific in some moments. Hahaha…
As for the beta readers, unfortunately no takes yet, but that’s alright. If push comes to shove, and it’s looking like it, I can find them in a few other places.
Gah! UNDER CONSTRUCTION! Everything is perpetually under construction…18+For Context Read "Lugubriosity"
