can you imagine: draw every day
My precious boys.~
Donovan has a little trouble expressing emotional needs, so it's easier for him to walk up to Michael, hug him from behind, and sigh heavily. Luckily, it doesn't take Michael long to figure out what his paladin wants from him.
Slight book of Bill spoilers!
Him being a pathetic ex was not on my 2024 bingo card....
Day 8: Favourite Angel (not Aziraphale)
The Archangel Fucking Gabriel
Alright, hear me out. I really wanted to put Muriel here, because they're adorable, funny and wholesome. But, well... I'd be lying.
It's very easy to dislike most angels (except Aziraphale and Muriel, I guess), because they are all tremendous assholes and very absolutist-coded. Season 1 Gabriel is no exception to that, but he does stand out compared to others, if only because of his power. Gabriel does not deign to communicate with the "other side" through the "back channels" or resort to physically assaulting Aziraphale outside his bookshop. He is immaculate because he has others to do his dirty work, while he smiles condescendingly and casually gives orders. He isn't creepy like Sandalphon or petty like Michael or Uriel, he's very handsome and constantly exudes power that remains unchallenged. At the same time, he understands his responsibility and is more mature than the other angels. He isn't aggressive for the sake of it, he is just brutally efficient in all he does. So, all in all, he is a COLOSSAL asshole but sort of the type of asshole you'd like to have on your team. He inspires confidence.
And then comes our beloved Season 2 Gabriel, aka Jim, who is an absolute flower petal. Dumb, naive, innocent, confused Jim. Incredibly funny, poor lost soul Gabriel. Who, whilst continuing to pretend "it's for work" actually went behind Heaven's back to hang out with Beelzebub because he liked her. Gabriel, who started running in the "angels fraternizing with demons" race 6000 years after Aziraphale and somehow fucking beat him.
Goddammit, I love Season 2 Gabriel. Loves hot chocolate. Unconventional organizational systems. Rhinestones.
So yeah, from Asshole Supreme to Idiot Deluxe, Gabriel is my favourite Angel (that isn't Aziraphale) and even though it looks like he's fucked off somewhere nice with Beelzebub, I hope we get to see at least a little bit of him in Season 3, maybe in a flashback or something.
Translation:
Michael: The moon is so beautiful tonight...
Donovan: Mhm.
"Michael loved to look at the moon. The sun burned his sensitive skin, and only at night could he calmly look at the sky. The moon seemed so far away and unattainable to him... Donovan also loved to look at the moon. Only his moon was very close and incredibly loved to walk at night, which is why the paladin was always yawning, and the bags under his eyes never went away. It didn't matter - the main thing was that the light of his moon did not go out."
The saga with my boys continues. I wish this illustration was canon, but alas. qwq
Happy 9th anniversary Undertale
Read the poem and couldnt not do a little something about it !

"At that moment, Donovan realized that this cleric wasn't only weak. He was also unworldly."
Drew my favourite DnD characters - paladin Donovan Lumis and cleric sir Michael Brante.
