I don't usually dabble in realism - but this was a gift for someone very meaningful in my life. And some things just deserve to be painted as they are.

Finally now that the comic is fully public on comicfury, I get to share it with all of you here, too <3
If you enjoyed, please consider supporting by buying a PDF of the comic on itch.io: https://tawnysoup.itch.io/home-in-the-woods
#I'd rather not clutter the caption so I'll ramble a little in the tags#HitW is short but special to me as it represents and encapsulates some hard life experiences I was going through at the time of its creatio#Ofc in a more metaphorical manner! but. I have been very much enjoying reading people's comments and speculation as its been posting#the interpretations are so meaningful and varied and i love that and really want to encourage anyone to reflect on what it means to them#for me making this comic was a way to process and move past trauma. i feel like it ends anti-climactically but i wanted to be true to#where i thought things were actually going in my life moreso than to veer towards impact. ultimately im glad i managed to finish it#and for it to finish going public right before the new year? maybe i can see this as shedding that old pain in time to become something new#so thank you for reading for supporting and for still being here. lets wake up to 2025 with wind in our sails#Home in the Woods#my art#my comics#original comic#cw guns#cw blood#cw body horror

Disclaimer these are just a small sampling of some possible writer traits I’ve noticed either in myself or in fics I read. Also consider a rb for sample size !
#I literally do all of these but mostly abuse of metaphor and specific descriptors and run on dialogue with no staging#writing#writers on tumblr#polls#I chose abuse of a metaphor you like because I think that’s probably my biggest#but also literally ‘you guys are getting beta readers?’ because I’ve NEVER ONCE had someone beta read for me#I like. proofread. sometimes#if you’re lucky#lol#but I’m curious what you guys do lol

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.
to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:
kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him
#dungeon meshi#delicious in dungeon#kabru#kabru already added laios as a discord friend. everyone else in the server can see laios excitedly asking kabru to go with him#what would You even Do in this situation. how would YOU feel?#basically: kabru isnt a laios-hater! hes just in shock bc Thats His Trauma. the key part is kabru still says yes#bc he wants to get to know laios. to understand why laios would be so fascinated by something horrific to him#and ALSO bc even while in shock kabru can still tell laios has unique expertise + knowledge that Could be used for Good#even if kabru doesnt fully trust laios yet (bc kabru just started talking to the guy 2 hours ago. they barely know each other)#kabru also understands that getting to know ppl (esp laios) means having to get to know their passions. even if it triggers his trauma here#but thats too much to fit in this metaphor/analogy. this is NOT an AU! its not supposed to cover everything abt kabru or laios' character!#its a self-contained metaphor written Specifically to be more easily relatable+thus easy to understand for general ppl online#(ie. assumed discord users. hence why i said (a non-specific) 'discord server' and not something specific like 'car repair subreddit')#its for ppl who mightve not fully grasped kabru's character+intentions and think hes being mean/'chaotic'/murderous.#to place ppl in kabru's shoes in an emotionally similar situation thats more possible/grounded in irl experiences and contexts.#and also for the movie punchline#mynn.txt#dm text#crossposting my tweets onto here since my friends suggested so

honestly more than anything else i’m glad that vessel and ii made the album that they wanted. it’s not like anything else on the scene right now, it doesn’t sound like how people want or expect them to, it doesn’t even sound like tmbte.. and they don’t care. this is why they’re in their own lane.
#sleep token#even in arcadia#guys i’m just saying gird your fucking loins for all the takes we’re going to see in the next few weeks#that’s what happens when you’re a trailblazer *longest drag on my metaphorical cig*#*

alphys visits a medical doctor
#tbh insofar as this headcanon Means anything it's mostly a metaphor for masking and the turmoil of feeling less than human#but it works pretty well for other forms of burnout and self destructive behavior it turns out.#undertale#alphys#fatphobia m#idk if i need to tag this or with what else#sorry for kind of a vent comic btw

About ob mal's alt, I feel like we'll get the prince outfit with the broken horn. Every ob guy got a new look during book 7 so even tho their dressup would be different (except Azul he just takes off some accessories lol) I think it'd kinda fit? What do you think
I want it to be this, just because I want Malleus' little Meleanor-cosplay to be attainable in some way. 🙏 I need to see everybody in Briar Valley royal outfits immediately. hometown event WHEN
(and of course, this is all besides how much I need the world's littlest punk rocker on my home screen)
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 spoilers#twisted wonderland episode 7 part 13 spoilers#twisted wonderland book 7 part 13 spoilers#i kinda doubt it would be anything that dramatic but the possibilities are intriguing#(actually hold on can azul's just be The Face)#i'm bracing with one hand for it to be like 1 pixel of difference#and hoping for something cool with the other hand#what do you mean metaphors have to make sense. ain't no rule

This man is NEVER beating the dog allegations
#discworld#sybil ramkin#sam vimes#havelock vetinari#samuel vimes#VETINARIS TERRIER#I started this back when I read guards guards when it noted how EMBARRASSED Vimes was at Sybil yelling at the dragon to sit#and I just went oh what an INTERESTING thing to mention as something he’s into!!!#and then the dog metaphors just…did not stop#they just kept going#like he’s Vetinari’s Terrier sure but he WILL sit at Sybil’s call#anyway somehow this is the first fanart I’m posting after finishing night watch#I’ll work up to the serious fanart probably#right after finishing guards guards I went to friends and went do I ship vetvimes??? not exactly. do I think Sybil calls up Vetinari#and goes ‘havelock please be a dear and pick up Vimes for a bit- he’s pacing the floor so hard he’s wearing a hole in the hardwood’ and then#vetinari kidnaps him for some recreational psychosexual torture and confusion and maybe a promotion#and a friend went….uhhhhhh you sure you haven’t read more of these books than you’re saying you’ve read?????#I didn’t realize how uh canon that was until i started the fifth elephant

The voice in your head telling you the dog-motif is overdone is wrong. Do not listen to it. Give them a muzzle. Give them a choker or a collar. Chain them to a fence. Give them sharp canines. Give them pavlovian responses. Give them puppy dog eyes. Put them in a cage. Give them themes of obedience, loyalty and love intertwined unhealthy. Give them attachment issues. Make them bite. Give them themes of taming, domestication and ferality. Give them actual, literal, rabies. Kick them while they're down. Microchip them. Scratch their hair behind their ear. Call them a good boy/good girl/etc. and watch them perk up in response. Put them in a shock collar. Give them a metaphorical treat to reward good behaviour. Make them beg for scrapes of affection.
The possibilities are endless.
