Hello ^-^, so i have a question related to your fic lost and found, if it's no trouble could you tell be a bit about Stencils siblings? I'm not familiar with all the Ink x Error children so I'm a bit lost every time they're mentioned
(also, wow, it's a really good fic, makes me happy every time i see an update)
OH I CAN SO TELL YOU ABOUT STENCIL'S SIBLINGS
ok okokok. Export is the oldest still living at the house, he's about 16 years old. It's his job to travel around the multiverse and fix Au's that would otherwise be beyond repair but honestly, he's not the best at it. He's trying really hard ok, he just can't summon screens to edit the code himself like he should. trust me, he's tried EVERYTHING. he works with another one of my ocs, Indigo, borrowing their power to help worlds like he was born to do
Glaze is by @andizoidart and I love him dearly. My mans is lowkey an asshole but that is why we love him. He's blunt as hell and will do whatever he deems necessary to get what he deems important enough for the effort, i.e rescuing Stencil. He's also the ONLY one the twins will listen to. like, Captcha's big ass clunky clothes? Glaze is the only one who can make him change into something else to wash them. and Copic's habit of kind of drugging people? Glaze is always the one who tells him who to go for.
Copic and Captcha are the chaos twins, with Copic not saying a word most of the time and Captcha being known for yelling his head off at everything that makes him mad, which is most things. Copic knows sign language and everything, he just honest to god doesn't see most people as being worth the trouble to talk to. Both of them are still figuring out their magic since they're so young, but Copic has a lot more of a handle on his than Captcha. So much so that he's made FREQUENT use of his ability to put people to sleep, as you've seen in lost and found
Stencil is usually the one taking care of his younger siblings while Export is out (mans can make a grilled cheese sandwich like nobody's business), so things are a tad bit out of wack in the household with him missing
and Bonus it's my personal headcannon that none of the errink kids can solve an actual captcha. they've got half computer brains, if you show them some squiggly letters it's likely they'll just tell you to fuck off
(also Aaaa thank you so much!! that means so much to hear!!! honestly the only reason I've been able to update so frequently is because of the comments I've been getting, so thank you so much)
-Error having Geno's glitches when hes unstable (and maybe even his eye melting,,, tho you rarely get to see it)
- PJ's comfort food is just some weird concoction Ink and Error made thats just error's strings and purple paint and called it "homemade ramen"
It sounds so dumb but its probably a really good healing item for him if he lost his strings=structure somehow.
-Gradient and Error communicate through puppets. Both of them are too socially awkward when face to face so this is for the best lmfao
-Ink building lil mini metatton robots!! Did you know his dad taught him how to build machines and studying astrophysics? Its so he learns to be less dependent on his paints and powers. I wish ppl draw him doing stuff like this more ; w ;
i also added his vials to his outfit and updated the first part with it cus i figured he probsbly wouldn’t go anywhere without it 🤔 i should be able to use my apple pencil soon so i can make better drawings 😭😭🙏🏻
Doing more sketchbooking for Eternal Ashes! (Lore-Dump under the Cut)
Mostly developing Kane more, and figuring out Reset's childhood vibes. Kane was the oldest of the "2nd generation" and he basically was the best thing the multiverse had to a peaceful mediator. He was adored by everyone, and worked hard to maintain that position. He could usually talk down either Ink or Error from fighting, and Dream and Nightmare usually didn't like to fight infront of him. As the son of Death and Resistance of Death, he has magic that correlates a bit to Purgatory. A between-world where Souls linger when they have unresolved conflicts from life. He wasn't above using the Souls he could contact to dissuade either side of the fight.
As Kane grew more known, he got a little posse of other kids following him, mainly consisting of Reset (his lil bro), Shotput (Dream+Killer's son), and Haphazard (Ink+Error's son). Hap was the least invested, but any time his parents weren't tearing holes in the multiverse was time he appreciated and owed to Kane. Then Shotput wanted to be like Kane and bring peace. Of course Reset followed him, they were siblings.
When Kane died, the treaty of the multiverse was brought about, and the duty of keeping the multiverse stable and true to the truce fell to Haphazard's shoulders. He didn't want the pressure, but took it on anyways as the 2nd eldest. Shotput was destroyed by Kane's death and ended up hardly ever leaving Dream's side fir several years. Reset, also broken without his older brother, stayed with Geno in the Save Screen for a few years (out of sight of the rest of the Multiverse) until he started training at Nightmare's.
And, I don't talk about the parents much, but I must mention: Reset got really into his training when he was 12, and rarely stopped at home by the time he was 13. He lived at Nightmare's castle for a while. Geno and Reaper didn't even see him until it was revealed that he'd been massacuring AUs. And at that point, the boy who was fleeing the scene of a crime with his friend, covered in dust and blood? He looked so uncannily like their older son who they'd lost so many years before. I mean, it makes sense that their children would look similar, they weren't perfect copies, but Reset still wore Kane's old cloak, and he wielded a scythe just like Reaper and Kane had. Geno had been distraught, but he kept to himself. Reaper had almost immediately fallen back into his grief. They couldn't get in touch with Reset, because he was on the run. They'd practically lost a second son, and they couldn't puzzle out why.
Also, when Reset finally revives Kane, Kane comes back at the age he died. He's been in stasis. He doesn't feel like any time has passed. Meanwhile, Reset is 18 and an adult. He's going to be in huge trouble for everything he did to get his brother back. Reset is a stranger to his own brother. He knew that it would happen, but it surprises him to realize just how much changed. How much stayed the same.
Oh! Bonus Reaper + Geno! Poorly drawn, but basically, the boys get their long faces + sharpe features from Reaper, and their more gentle features from Geno. (Also, I think the freckles for Kane are from Geno's side, while Reset's magic that gives him his "freckles" comes from Reaper.)
