#I guess it counts as art anyway

This year's May calendar picture. One of these days I'll actually work on drawing so I'm not limited to fun with screenshots and creative commons images.

(That I write fanfic is decidedly not a secret at work. I've been doing fic cover stuff for May since I've had a cubical.)

He's-a Gone

Luigi time! To suffer, that is.

(CW: character death)

This is obviously a sort of comlementary piece to I Was-a Too Late. But it's more than just that as it also illustrates a certain fun, dark what-if idea I had. Please keep reading if you're intrigued!

Lore:

Luigi's Mansion, the first game. Everything goes the same as in canon until the final boss fight, when Luigi defeats King Boo in his Bowser costume. After King Boo comes out and Luigi intends to suck him in, the villain laughs and reveals the truth: Mario's painting was an illusion, so was everything Madame Clairvoya saw. All just to mess with Luigi. Meanwhile the real Mario wasn't just captured by the Boos, he was immediately killed by them on their King's orders. The only physical thing that's left of him in this realm is the five items Luigi found - hidden by the Boos for Luigi to find, another part of King Boo's sick game.

Luigi is able to finish the fight despite his shock and grief, fueled by the anger King Boo never expected from him. After getting out of the painting the plumber discovers that it is indeed empty, no Mario or anyone else in the portrait.

Heartbroken and guit-ridden, Luigi goes back to Professor E. Gadd's lab and gives him back the Poltergust 3000. He doesn't even want to stay long enough to see what is going to happen to the ghosts. Of course the Professor tries to offer some semblance of comfort, but we all know it's not his forte.

So Luigi leaves, only taking Mario's five items with him. He notices that the mansion has disapeared without a trace. The reality of it all finally hits him, and he practically collapses onto a nearby tree's large root protruding from the ground, putting down the precious items around himself, only leaving the matching red hat and the letter in his hands. He should have known something was off. After all, the Mario he saw in the painting was wearing his hat and both gloves.

Looking at all these items, to his growing horror he can't help but imagine what exactly might have happened to his brother and what his last moments might have been like. He hugs the hat to his chest and rereads Mario's note several times, knowing that the brief warning was his brother's last words to him.

Luigi can do nothing but cry for the beloved brother he couldn't save, desperately wishing it was his warm, living and breathing body pressed to his chest rather than just a couple of his belongings.

But Mario is truly gone, apparently having met such a horrific fate that not even a single part of his body is left in the physical world.

[Good night]

…I'll leave the rest up to your imagination ;) Sorry if I got carried away with my description. Occasionally even I enjoy being a little dramatic, though I'm no writer whatsoever.

Yeah, I'm not apologizing for making this one - I was nicer to Luigi than to his bro, at least here the Mushroom Kingdom and everyone in it (except for Mario lol) is still okay!

But alas,

You can no longer play as Mario

Rest in spaghetti, funny wahoo man.

@federthenotsogreat I'm tagging you because you said you wanted more Mario art like I Was-a Too Late, thought you might like this one too!

@drones-of-innocence Also tagging you because you were interested in my idea.

Edit: Tagging a few more mutuals who might want to see this based on their reaction to my previous angsty work just in case, feel free to ignore. Or ask me to remove the tag if you want, no problem.

[backpackevil]

I'M BACK

I'm gonna make a whole bunch of these for the goobers I like and stick every single one of them somewhere on my walls

And absolutely no one can stop me

+ the concept sketch that, thanks to commentary, still makes me laugh

[pokimoko]

if you’re still doing pride flag animals, could you maybe do an aroace narwhal?

Absolutely! Have a narwhal!

Happy pride month

While Tyrantrum is technically not my #1 favorite pokemon (though it's very high on the list!). As a character and individual pokemon I own, King has probably got to be my favorite. don't tell the others

He is going to Headsmash you <3

YAY more sam posting from ur local sam apologist (i say as the biggest thing on this doodle dump is him like....disembowled)

some headcanons here being thad was one of the only drones not at the campfire at the time of uzi's arrival (having gone back to the bus for something and coming back to the carnage).

after everything seems to be resolved hes able to convince a slightly ticked off V to help him look for any surviving campers, which include sam and emily (as busted up as they were). V was able to heal them back to fixable states and brought them both back to the bus and didn't mention a word of this to N.

uzi notices the two on the bus and absolutely freaks the fuck out, knowing FULL well she killed both of them (or at least 'tried' to), and dreads having to see them when the next time comes (though for her and sam things get better bc lol im gay smokeybats wins and sam likes the bitey girl)

another mini headcanon i dont dwell on here that i might delve into later is due to V's spit healing them they still get phantom pains from their wounds (emily in her neck, chest and entire lower half / sam in the right of his forehead and his middle) despite them being 100% fixed. the pains can range from a light pang where the wound starts to a fullbody strain that causes them to have to stop moving for the time being

this was honestly an excuse just to draw more sam and to shove him in the tags, i love sam
