the!!!!! beasts!!!!!!!!!!!! colored a few of my notebook doodles that i posted a few days ago and made jean into a pine marten (he was originally a stoat, but i wanted him to be a little larger than that)
harry and kim's designs are based on @buckybearart's designs tho i gave kim spots. also was buckybearart's idea for jean being a small bitey sort of beast (he had jean as a tasmanian devil, but i wanted all of them except kim to be european type creatures)
eyes in the top left is a russo-european laika mutt. stray street dog type. kim is half indochinese leopard, half iberian lynx (also that's younger kim with eyes). harry is very much a eurasian brown bear (with a terrible sense of fashion), and jean is a european pine marten (feat big ears, etc.). OH and judit (far right) is a european badger
sorry about jean's awful swearing. he's short now. gotta' compensate somehow (everyone in the precinct is still scared of him. he gets up on tables and yells at you and if you fuck with him he bites you really hard)
i made judit a badger coz she seems like a very stable, reliable kind of person who will stand her ground and fight back if pushed
i wonder if they hibernate lol
text transcript under the cut
Kim in the middle: Get your shit together.
Jean bottom left: One more word out of you Kitsuragi and I will bite your spiky dick off.
Judit on the far right: Good luck, Lieutenant.
Jean on the bottom right: Thank you, Minot.

am getting a lot of character inspo for shri’iia from amy gone girl. I don’t think she’s as smart nor calculated but she is similar to some degree in that she’s hyper aware of the current persona she’s presenting and how she’s appealing to the people. the masks and the mjndgames, that’s basically how shri’iia operated while she was still serving under her matriarch in menzoberranzan. she needed to play the roles the matriarch required of her and it was only when she was with her matriarch that she can be ‘Real Shri’iia’, and that’s how I imagined shri’iia to be esp in act 1 when she is so new and scared in the surface. she needed to work out who these people are (her companions) and what they liked, so her first persona - her blank one - the charming helpful paladin who got tadpoled and wants to go back home just like the rest of them (which was half true). she didn’t really argue and she generally agreed to what the group wanted. she was helpful and co-operative, ask her about her past and she will tell you something bland and generic- interesting enough to be ooh-ing about but not too interesting that they’ll delve deeper into it. then, when she got to know them a little more, she started crafting little personas adjacent to her first one ; she’s the girl who’s curious about magic but never had the chance to learn with gale, she’s a cool girl who likes mischief as debauchery with astarion, she’s the one who likes to take risks and live in the moment with karlach, the knight in silver armor who’s willing to help the tieflings with wyll, a disciplined fighter with lae’zel, someone who understands the depths of devotion with shadowheart - but none are really her, not really. ofc her own personality might slip in here and there but for the most part she’s appealing to them and what they’d like her to be but none of it is really genuine. shri’iia just needs to be on their good side to minimise the chances of them turning on her, and if they let her guard down it’ll be easier for her to get rid of them should the need arise. taking up all these different masks, collecting all these intel abt them to be used for later, slithering and making a place in their minds - it’s really how she operated back in menzoberranzan. I think the only one who catches on to her game is astarion but that’s bc he’s doing the same thing too, so it’s very game recognises game lmfao
it’s only when she breaks her oath and goes through her existential crisis that all of her masks drop and her real self comes out. she was never that kind of person lmfao ^, she’s greedy, selfish, paranoid and rather obsessive. she doesn’t care about a lot of things that doesn’t concern her, she has a cruel streak that she hasn’t shown before, and she hates doing anything that won’t really benefit her. but she’s fiercely loyal to anyone she likes, like a dog. and severely she craves validation and approval - also like a dog.

So i was thinking ab a thing me and @s-e-v-e-n-38 talked about where the combaticons get de-aged into babies because they are babies
motormaster being the chubbiest little bean and imaging his little hoodie n hat wasn’t enough I needed to make it happen - despite toddlers being horrible to draw
Credit to @disformer for the design I referenced, their motormaster is great and lives in my brain rent free
The bitlet has plating formed like elbow n knee pads, because I say so.

i watched the pilot of brba the other night and it occured to me then that there is a specific kind of guy that i become obsessed with turning over and over in my head like observing a coin shine in the sunlight:
a tragic adult male figure that ends up hurting those closest to him (and/or) everyone around him, because of his own crumbling to society's expectations and pressures of him as a man, leader, patriarch, or simply as a person, and a slow succumbing to self-loathing, insanity, addiction, curse, evil, or just long-suffering... and the tragic consequences of his instability and harmful behaviors affect his family first, perhaps the ones he loves most, or the only ones which love him, before it finally gets around back to him and he begins to suffer tenfold. sometimes they are dads (biological, or adoptive), or they are something like an unofficial guardian to a child, or they *would* have had a child had it not been for their behavior. sometimes there's a redemption arc or redeemable qualities, and sometimes there's just a slow demise.
