UNTITLED EVIL LUIGI AU COMIC THING | Page 1 of (???)

First | Prev | Next

---

Luigi’s been acting weird lately-- and Bowser’s concerned. When Luigi vanishes one day without any warning, Bowser begrudgingly turns to Mario for help, meeting him at a (humorously petite) cafe in Mushroom Kingdom to discuss what’s been going on. Old rivalries die hard.

The cafe has really good liability insurance, don’t worry.

(A/N under the cut)

bear with me as i try to find my footing with this LOL, i am by no means a professional comic artist. i’m writing (or attempting to, at least) a comic based on my Evil Luigi AU-- read the original post/see the original art my looking thru the #my art tag on my blog! this is a bowuigi AU, so the relationship’s pre-established and Luigi, up until he ran away, had been ruling Koopa Kingdom alongside Bowser and navigating that fun new king life.

i have no idea what to tell yall to expect other than the fact that this will be very inconsistent in literally all senses of the word :’) but hey, im tryin my best-- i havent done any sort of comic in a long time and im having a lot of fun with this so far. if anything it’s good practice. right now i have at least a few pages planned out, but im not sure how quickly ill be able to draw them out, especially since i’ll be working full-time again soon. so see this as a bit of a teaser for things to come/an experiment to measure interest in the idea. :D

this is the funniest tweet on twitter and the one that brings the whole fandom together to say - Robert is going ham on these targs, this is the best day of his life, he gets to kill Rhaegar again AND thee Daemon?? hell yeah!! meanwhile aegon is taking the chance to finally murder the shit out of his dad and then immediately die, only to accidentally kill Robert and survive anyway.

financial independence changed my whole outlook on life i really mean that. i will work my ass off and i will do it for MYSELF and it feels so rewarding to know that i dont have to answer to anyone about my time or money but ME. it gives me the motivation to do the best i can so i can give myself the best life possible u know

[equalseleventhirds]

it is so late and i am so tired and i haven't even been online much lately, but i've been ruminating abt ttrpgs (as i have endless rumination time at work and on the train, which is 80% of my time anyway)

and abt the like, unreasonable mindset ppl get into abt dnd 5e due to Marketing and also Actual Plays. u kno, that it can Do Anything, that u don't gotta know the rules, that the dm should plan a conventional narrative and u gotta stick to it, that it's for cute queer found families, roleplaying rollplaying bullshit, etc.

and sometimes there's posts from ppl who are outside of that mindset like, wow try another game, but also pls don't bring that mindset to other games we love. u kno.

and maybe i simply spend a lot of time in podcast & streaming circles and also circles of ppl who learned ttrpgs from podcasts & streaming, but, crucially, i don't play d&d

so i meet a lot of ppl who have moved past d&d, right. but. still have that mindset abt their new favorite game(s).

like, 'oh unlike d&d this is actually a queer found family narrative' they say abt a heavily pvp game where u can be queer but it's not about queerness.

'oh unlike d&d you can create a real story' they say, as the gm ignores the handy Make Situations sheet the game comes with and plans a 5-act narrative years in advance.

'oh unlike d&d this game is about ROLEplaying not ROLLplaying' they say, ignoring the social mechanics of the game in order to draw out talky scenes. for character work. for realism. for the story.

'oh unlike d&d this one is so easy to learn' they say, not reading huge and relevant sections of the book until halfway through the session.

i could go on. once i played a kinda weird and poetic indie game with folks whose primary game was motw, and the amount of 'hey this weird and poetic mechanic doesn't make literal sense to me as a character action' haunts me.

and it is immensely frustrating, bcos like.... on the one hand, god i'm glad you're playing something that's not d&d!! that's so important!! on the other hand, you likely learned about this game through an actual play where they (hopefully) used the basic mechanics for stuff, but mostly ran the story like a 5e actual play.

like, i love the adventure zone, but my god you're gonna come out of amnesty or steeplechase with a WILD misunderstanding of the themes and story even a lot of the mechanics of motw or bitd. (both games i like very much. but don't play them like the mcelroys.) or like, god i'm glad the d20 folks are having such fun with kob-adjacent games. but do NOT learn kob from them.

and listening to famous ppl do that to a game i like is one thing. a frustrating thing, to be sure. but participating in a game like this, or even hearing my friends & acquaintances play like this? hateful. makes me grit my teeth and cry. makes me make weirder and weirder game mechanics, which hopefully i'll make into coherent games someday.

anyway, this is all to say, before you start your found family motw game where u will team up with the monsters to save everything and maybe also bigfoot is there, a. stop listening to taz amnesty, b. read, really REALLY read apocalypse world and get a handle on THAT, c. go reread motw and think hard abt it, and d. watch buffy and supernatural a bit. yeah i know they suck. think rly hard abt that scene in buffy where xander chooses not to tell buffy that angel will get his soul back so buffy has to kill her and then no one ever finds out abt that and i HATE that scene but also it's the kind of thing motw was built for, you see.

also play weirder games and adjust ur expectations but whatever.

[gaydelgard]

okay so i decided to watch the invitation entirely cause of all your posts about it. will let you know how it goes.

OOOH let me know what you think!!

but thats not the movies fault they make the themes PREEEETTTYYYY obvious

Hi! Do you think Rogier’s type to hug someone? If so what kind of hugs would he give (and by extension, Magdalene too)? And, if I dare ask, do they get to hug at some point?

Hi anon! Now this is a very interesting question…

Is Rogier a hugger? Oh boy. Well. There’s a lot to unpack with this, I think. Like the man himself, this question has layers. 

If you’ll permit me some wild speculation, let’s dive into this!

1] Is his facade a hugger?

Sure, if that’s what the other person needs. In the sense of, “this is what the situation calls for, this is what will rock the boat the least,” kind of way. A brilliant (and likely well-intentioned) imitation of sincerity. 

It might feel a little stiff. 

2] Is his Utter Detachment a hugger? 

Heavens no. Internally, he’s begging: “please, let’s not do this.” 

That sort of thing makes things harder than they need to be. Best avoided. 

Hugging probably isn’t his first instinct when it comes to comfort. He seems more the type to try to use his words, or give some other gesture of thoughtfulness/consideration. His “utter detachment” is more about maintaining distance, and therefore reducing vulnerability. I don’t think he’s heartless, but rather, severely uncomfortable with something that encroaches on that boundary he feels so dependent on. 

It feels like he’s turned to stone.

3] Is his touch starvation a hugger?

Absolutely, and he hates this. What a terrible affliction to have, with the company he keeps. He’s burying that as deep as he can. The good news is, in these lands, one can forget such appetites. He stopped hungering for these things long ago.

At least, until someone reminds him by initiating one.

…It feels like he’s fighting himself, resisting every instinct in him to melt into the embrace, to hold on for just that nearly-imperceptible moment longer. 

4] Is Rogier a hugger?

Now that’s the great mystery right there. Who’s Rogier? 

None of us know. Personally?

...Yeah. I think maybe so. 

I think perhaps, in an impulsive moment of joy, (“Hey Rogier, here’s the mending rune to save TWILD,”) he might pull someone in for a hug. Or I think it could be a somber, consoling gesture, when words won’t fix anything anymore. I think in a moment of tremendous relief, when death came a little too close, he might reach out and count his blessings as he catches his breath. 

I think it feels like he’s human under there. More human than he’s let anyone see in a long, long time. 

5] Is Magdalene a hugger?

Ha, oh yes. And she’s as hearty and vigorous in this regard as she is in every other aspect of her being. Prepare thine ribs. 

On one hand, you won’t be able to breathe, on the other:

Just popped up on your screen XD

6] Do Rogier and Magdalene get to hug?

:3

(Of course, anon!) (But the real question is, under what circumstances?)

Thanks for the question, anon! :D This was fun to dive into!

Personally, i hate hazbin for its lazy world building, God awful character designs and scenery, and how its creator acts. The fact that vivziepop hasn't said anything about palestine despite all eyes being on her recently, is just gross, not to mention the whole prime thing. I'm sick of seeing it on trending

[id: an uncolored, four-panel, digital comic. it features vio and shadow from the four swords manga. vio is reading a book and shadow is leaning against them, fiddling with a dark flame.

vio says, "stop misgendering me, please". shadow shifts and turns his head, saying, "huh?" vio closes their book and says, "i dont use he/him". shadow sits up completely, yelling "there's more than he/him?" in all caps. end id]

oh my god???

[ID: Transformers Victory [89 anime] screenshots. Star Saber, a large autobot in blue red and white, speaks to a nun. 1. The nun is sitting on his open hands, to speak closer to his face. He smiles politely and says "I'm Jan's foster parent, Star Saber."

2. Waist shot, the nun sits at table now, outdoors. She holds spectacles in one hand, and paper in the other. She says "There, I've completed the paperwork." There's a teacup infront of here, and a mountain range scenery behind.

3. Wide shot. The nun, at her table and chair, is on a roof top. She looks across at Star Saber, who's head is level with the building stepel. She says "Oh... I suppose that's not quite possible."

4. Location shot, Star Saber from behind, standing by the building in full. It is 3-4 stories tall. He says "I will send a reduction of my signature later." END

just like. are we all seeing this? yes?? FANTASTIC.
