I’ve been drawing these things all day 😅 they’re so fun to make!

I would prefer to write some short snippet of world building for this fantasy world these drawings are for, but judging by my enthusiasm, there are going to be way too many drawings to make one whole story about (or multiple).

I am hoping to push some sort of writing out soon though!

Been trying to figure out how to adapt the stex characters to my style! Here’s CB.

I should really use more references for roller skates

[jay-junebug]

The stex antags are very funny to me

Headcanons time

This is mostly how I think the characters would work if they weren’t part of a child’s imagination (but I guess you could have assumed that already).

Idk if it was obvious yet from my other posts but I have never watched the actual show 😭 all I got is fandom wiki (unfortunately).

Anyways—

All the characters are robots who were made for two purposes: replacing human operators and racing.

They share connections with their corresponding train car/engine and might get upset if they aren’t connected to it anymore.

Pretty tall.

They can eat. Probably originally for dining cars since they deal with food, but eventually it was for an easy fuel source for them.

I imagine the skates they wear are a part of them. They can’t really take them off. I just think robots with wheels should be used more.

All you gotta do is activate them once and they’re pretty much automatic. There is a way to deactivate them ofc.

I may edit this and add more. Idk. I pretty much just came up with these as I was writing.

Ahhh I’ve been making great progress on my oc x canon stex fic but I’m resisting the urge to just start posting it now… I wanna wait until I actually finish it before sharing the writing 😭

Perhaps I can ramble about smaller details? 👀 I’m fully willing to ramble about my ideas, which surprises me, because I’m incredibly shy.

I think I’ll start with some headcanons. Tomorrow or something (my time, that is).

[jay-junebug]

So, I couldn’t stop thinking about how similar my OC was to CB (who I’ve made long before I knew about stex).

I thought it would be cute if they met each other, and I had begun writing something about that. But now I think it would be even cuter if they eventually ended up liking each other.

Now I have to find a ship name for them. I’m thinking Toybox!

Apple Music suggested Starlight Express’ music to me and now I’m obsessed with the show concept and Greaseball…

(That’s my sona on the left. I’m not a train, just wearing skates.)

Writing isn’t about waiting for some magical burst of motivation to hit you. If you’re sitting around waiting for the perfect moment, you’ll never get anything done. Writing is showing up on the bad days, when the words feel like they’re dragging through mud. It’s not glamorous, it’s work. But here’s the thing, every time you push through that struggle, you get stronger. You don’t write because it’s easy or fun all the time. You write because the story inside you needs to be told. So sit down, put in the hours, and watch what happens when you refuse to quit.

Alpha

Damon (left), shortly after becoming a drakoldar, ran into a strange woman. She was like him: a being cursed with the ability to turn when they least expect it. She did not think of it as a curse, however. She learned how to control the beast within instead. She gave the man a few wise words, but he would be too afraid to acknowledge them.

Running through the parking lot

He chased me and he wouldn’t stop

Tag, you’re it, tag, tag you’re it

Grabbed my hand, pushed me down

Took the words right out my mouth

Tag, you’re it, tag, tag you’re it

(Feat. @twistedastrs OC)

Since it’s October, me and my friend decided that it would be fun to imagine a scene in which Fenris gets chased down (again). This time, however, he doesn’t escape 😔

The idea was originally more gore-y but I thought of this visual (from reading their description) and had to draw it.
