do skully have pokemon?

Pumpkaboo is the obvious one, but y'know, sometimes the obvious one is the right one! (we'll say SUPER SIZE Pumpkaboo, just for fun. big pumpkin for big skeleton boy.) and another person actually also suggested Greavard, which I somehow hadn't considered, but feels so perfect that I feel like I should have. dangit.

(they can also have little Nightmare Suit costumes :D)

Leviathan took a deep breath. He had always wanted to try this. It was silly, and a stupid idea, and if anybody outside of his close circle found out about it he'd probably perish on the spot from embarrassment. But it looked so fun. What otaku wouldn't want to try this at least once in their life?

He had been ready and in position for an hour. In fact, Leviathan didn't sleep at all last night. He pulled an all-nighter watching season five of Welcome to Human School! and decided to recreate this classic cliche in a rare act of spontaneity after seeing it play out on TV for the ten thousandth time.

The lack of sleep was starting to catch up with him, exacerbated by nerves and an early morning chill that caused his shoulders to shake, but he would not give up. He had to know what it was like. Leviathan leaned his head against the House of Lamentation's stone exterior. He refreshed his Devilgram feed for the tenth time and fiddled with the lowest button on his shirt while standing in wait. It was important that his appearance looked slovenly, like this was spontaneous and he had to rush to get dressed. The details had to be perfect.

Noise began to stir around the corner. Leviathan rushed to shove his phone into a pocket and stuffed his mouth with slightly stale buttered bread. It was go time.

Several dozen feet away, you emerged from the house. You paused in the doorway, checking to ensure last night's homework was in your bag and not still on the desk in your room. You had to be at school quite early and wouldn't have time before class to come back if you forgot something. Luckily, all was fine. The heavy door swung shut behind you. As you began to walk down the cobbled steps, something caught your eye. Something big and fast in a RAD uniform, speeding at you and screaming.

Leviathan was not actually screaming. He was just shouting, "I'm late! I'm late!" over and over through a wad of carbs. You didn't have much time to process that fact before he slammed into you like an amateur sumo wrestler.

You shrieked. Leviathan shrieked. The two of you tumbled down the stone steps in a mass of confusion until you landed on top of the nerdy demon like another cliche anime trope. However, Leviathan had no time to celebrate this weeby double whammy. He grabbed your head in a panic and coughed out a gross mouthful of bread to ask, "A-are you okay!?"

Your sturdy uniform and the purple haired demon had luckily protected you from the worst. Leviathan released your face and hovered his hands by your sides as you felt around for bruises, trying to get your bearings. He let out a pained groan when you accidentally elbowed him in the stomach while trying to stand up.

The surroundings were calm. No sign of danger. You scrambled to pick up your bag and exclaimed, "What was that!?"

"I... I'm late for school." That was Leviathan's explanation. He couldn't confess any further. This was not the romantic comedy scenario he envisioned. His mouth was dry. Class didn't even start for another two hours. He realized now what a dumb plan this truly was. As he lay on the hard ground, he sort of wished it would open up and swallow him whole, but your outstretched hand of kindness was a nice consolation.

Finally found time to finish this. Still feeling the comic booky style from yesterday.

In honor of Ken Page, voice of Oogie Boogie, who passed away this month, I decided to illustrate Oogie making the trick-or-treat-trio some of his special brew: A snake and spider stew

To round off my doodles of @crystallizedtwilight Lock Shock and Barrel redesigns, this time it's her Banshee OC, Calliope! As an imp, witch, and ghoul, as well as the trio all as Banshees as well :D

[crystallizedtwilight]

Do lock shock and barrel ever do that thing where after you go clothes shopping you do a little fashion show to your friends to show off the new clothes? Also would shocks girlfriend join?

No fashion shows but we have noticed we've been looking...cooler lately 😎

was going to post this when i got FULLY home from momocon but 30 mins back in texas and theres standstill traffic due to a wreck! home sweet home!

anyways i went to momocon yeahhh!!!!! i only cosplayed saturday and sunday but i went as Zoey (tdroti) and Sock (w2h) (and sorry about the silly/dumb pics, im not a huge cosplay photo taker)

anyways i wanted to talk about my cosplay experience because i got recognized a handful of times and it was neat! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Zoey: the lesser of the recognitions LOLL if you can imagineee!!!! i originally wanted to join the total drama fan photoshoot happening on friday! but we were running so insanely late to that day i wasnt able to get in cosplay (+ my chronic migraines really kicked my ass that day anyway so i didnt really feel like getting into cosplay (++ that erm… Evacuation halted things like the second i step foot into the building im not kidding 😭))

but i got one “is that zoey from total drama?!” in passing and another “wow you dont see her cosplayed a lot” from a booth runner LMFAOOO that person also had to explain which season she was from to their booth partner 🤕

Sock: i actually lost count of how many times i got stopped for my cosplay. THERE R SO MANY LURKING W2H FANS!!!! it was insane. notably there was one person who asked to take a photo of me, one momocon worker who gave me a free sticker after recognizing my cosplay, and a tv head persona who said “sock!” and then gave me a free beanie baby! cool stuff!!!

other than those i got a couple people stopping me and talking about w2h2 with me, someone asking if id seen the sock plushie announcement (i have and will be SAT for preorder, lol), a lot of very sweet compliments, one “is this from that old youtube video”, and a LOT of overheard whispers of people saying “sock?” in passing

my general experience at momocon was SO FUCKING FUN! IT WAS A BLAST!!!! hopefully i can go next year bc genuinely the most fun con experience ever. i guess being pointed and yelled “SOCK” at a handful of times really fueled the excitement but still!!!!
