Husk and Cherri Bomb are friends with Angel Dust, but while Cherri has been friends with Angel for a long time and is openly affectionate with him, Husk was formerly cold to Angel and only came to view him as a friend after Angel showed vulnerability and let his walls down around him.
Like Cherri, Husk wants what's best for Angel, but unlike Cherri who thinks that feeding into Angel's addictive tendencies are the best way to treat his depression and that living up to the hotel's standards is only making his life more difficult, Husk encourages Angel to stick with the self-improvement he's learned from the hotel and not fall back into his old ways since Angel's trying to get into Heaven.
"Welcome to Heaven" shows Angel doesn't necessarily have to pick one or the other, as he can still enjoy himself in moderation so long as he still prioritizes being a good person, Angel saying there's room for both Cherri and Husk as his friends.
AHHHH HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANGEL *collapses on the floor and dies* 🎉💗
(Have a Huskerdust animatic with overlord husk au ! Wooooo!!!11! I have come up with so much lore and story for this au during my creation of this animatic it’s insane, PLEASE ASK ME ABOUT IT !) I’m insane about them.
But now I have some notes about my feelings and progress of this animatic it’s a bit long but i would be great full if y’all read it.
Ok so my 1st fully fledged animatic has been very grueling but l've learnt so much with it
don't animate on procreate it's hell, and I need to find a better program to animate on (cause I wanna try and make more animatics in the future. Please suggest some apps to me )
I don't have to be as meticulous or nit picky about everything since it kinda makes my art look stiff and not dynamic like my sketches
Animatics CAN LOOK ROUGH (being rough doesn't make it bad, sometimes it makes it more fluid)
I really want to experiment with more dynamic camera shots and movement.
That being said I didn't want to switch up the style at the end of the animatic so I stuck with the stiff style, and this being my first actual long form animatic (not counting a couple of the more tiktok-esque Steddie ones | made) I'm still kinda proud??q!! Even though it's not how l imagined it to look like
TLDR: this is my first actual animatic, I have no animation background and don't know what I'm doing.
Nevertheless I'm so proud of what I made, but still wanna make more less refined animatics in the future, and I want to allow myself to play around with more movement
Angel’s extremely ticklish, especially around his neck and sides. Husk loves to make Angel laugh. So he’ll blow raspberries against Angel’s neck when Husk’s feeling especially playful. 😌
✨💕Power couple losers✨💕 I’ve been wanting to put angel in some type of drag outfit for a while, and I’m so happy I was finally able to get this piece done!! I hope you all like it!
Why has Husk never stood up for himself, especially when uncomfortable over Angel's advances?
Well, what if it's because of the very deer who owns his soul.
(TW FOR SLIGHT SA/ABUSE REFERENCES, MENTIONS OF BEING DRUGGED) (ITS ANGEL DUST)
ALRIGHT YALL, BEAU IS BACK WITH ANOTHER ANALYSIS. I'm so excited to be writing a Husk-centric one, he's one of my favorite characters!
So, we all know Angel likes to flirt, and this is mostly because of the way he copes with his own situation. Husk makes it very prominent about his discomfort towards these gestures, as he's the main victim of Angel's fake flirting.
While he shows his discomfort, however, he never actually tells Angel to stop. All he does is push him away, weather that is an annoyed reaction or literally pushing him away. He never sets boundaries, or even says no to him.
This all changes when Charlie introduces the concept of boundaries to Husk, as she had crossed Angel's earlier with the Valentino situation. While Husk seems annoyed about her remark, he takes it to Husk.
When Husk talks to Angel after saving him from being drugged at a club, we notice him setting boundaries for the first time, saying that Angel is always "pushing [his] boundaries". He also uses the same language he learns from Charlie earlier with the boundaries talk.
But why does Husk never set boundaries before this? Because he can not.
Husk is on a leash, meaning he has to take every order from his boss, or he could lose his life. He can't say no.
And Alastor's treatment only reinforces how not only hopeless he is, but how powerless he is over his own life. He can not back away from Alastor's grasp, and it makes him feel like he has no choice on how others treat him, especially with Angel Dust.
I wonder who's situation this remind me of?
But it makes sense that one person struggling with boundary issues is the one to hurt someone else struggling with boundary issues.
But when Husk opens up about his boundaries, it makes both parties feel better. Husk feels more in control of his life, having the ability to say no. Angel dust feels in control of his life as well, having the respect to not have to essentially sell himself to feel respected, as boundaries are in place to respect all involved.
Because he is willing to open up about his boundaries, it actually makes Husk feel more comfortable around Angel Dust, as he knows Angel's remarks will only be that of light hearted rather than sexualizing (to an uncomfortable degree). This is why Angel and Husk are able to become so close; as the trust formed between them allows them to open up to each other. This is a healthy relationship. Romantic or not, HuskerDust has really gone a long way for the best!
