Hard Part Done! Now For The Much Worse, Yet Somehow Easier At The Same Time, Part

# underrated medium

#puppetry

can we as a society make puppetry cool again. like lets make it trendy. Mainstream. more people should get into doing it and more people should appreciate it. puppetry requires craftsmanship and charisma and physical acting and vocal performance!! you can’t get that from ai. it has a charm to it that neither 2D nor cg animation has. Have you ever watched a puppetry performance and realized you were genuinely convinced that the puppet was getting into bed or eating something or giving a hug that you wholly forgot there was some guy’s arm in there.

isn’t it lovely. to make a funny little guy to tell stories with. is that not so human of us. it’s such a lovely art form. I love you puppets I love you muppets I love you marionettes I love you handmade sock puppets I love you paper bags with googley eyes I love you armatures I love you I love you I love you!!!!!

Let's goooooo!

Chapter 1 : How it Ends

The Plague Doctor's Mask

As his siblings before him, Kallamar suddenly found himself out of Purgatory and back into the world at the mercy of the one who killed him. Completely deaf, fragile and mortal, he has to decide how this new story will play out. To live in fear, cowering behind the heavy shadows of his siblings or to dare being the pillar that holds their fragile bonds together. Whatever his moves might be, there are many pieces on this chessboard he must watch out for.

GUYS it's finally here! I hope it's good I am shitting myself 🤣💙

I thought the Ides of March would be an amazing day to post this. Happy Reading! I'll go.... keep hydrated.

CotL incorrect quotes (my au)

(characters: Lamb, Narinder, Goat, Shamura, Leshy, and Marko (my Yellow Cat))

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Narinder: Oh, to be a bored heir to the throne who keeps rejecting marriage proposals due to being secretly in love with the cute gardener. Lamb: Oh, to be a cute gardener who secretly places roses in the heir’s room because they are in love with them. Shamura: Oh, to be the palace guard who discreetly helps to boost the cute gardener up the wall for their secret deliveries in the middle of the night. Marko: Oh, to be the heir’s best friend witnessing the two fools dance around each other while knowing damn well that the two like each other. Goat: Oh, to be the noble suitor from another royal family who comes to know of their love instantly and plans an entire plan to get them their happy ending. Leshy: Oh, to be a medieval peasant who knows nothing about the heir’s personal life and who dies of dysentery at age 23.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Goat: The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was changing their name to Narinder.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lamb: Nothing in life is free.

Narinder: Love is free.

Shamura: Knowledge is free.

Leshy: Friendship is free.

Marko: Self-respect is free.

Goat: Everything's free if you don't pay for it.

The Squad: ...

Shamura: Goat, that's illegal-

Lamb: No, let them finish!

(It wouldn't let me copy paste it like the first one for some reason)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shamura: Hold on! I’m having one of those things... a headache with pictures.

Marko: What the f-

Lamb: They’re having an idea.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shamura: When Narinder was born, the gods said, "They're too perfect for this world."

Lamb: Please. When they were born, the devil said, "Oh, competition."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lamb: You know, sometimes dandelions remind me of Goat.

Marko: Aww, is it because they’re like a little sunshine, spreading light and hope everywhere?

Lamb: What? Gross, no, it’s because they’re like a weed that you can’t get rid of!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Leshy, at Narinder's funeral: I need a moment with them.

Everyone: Of course. *They leave*

Leshy, leaning over Narinder′s coffin: Okay, listen here you little shit. I know you’re not dead.

Narinder: Yeah, no shit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lamb: Since we're in a relationship now, your clothes are my clothes too. Don't ask me why I have your shirt on, this is our shirt.

Narinder: Fine, but when I come strutting in with your fuzzy socks I don't want to hear shit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Goat: You need a hobby.

Lamb: I have a hobby!

Goat: Fawning over Narinder isn’t a hobby.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lamb: So… I’ve seen you’ve been spending a lot of time with Marko recently.

Leshy: No, Lamb, it's not what it looks like, I swear.

Lamb: Oh really? So no reason for me to be jealous?

Leshy: No! You’re the only one for me.

Lamb: Is that so?

Leshy: I promise! Marko and I are just dating, okay? They’re my partner.

Lamb: So there are no best-friends-feelings involved?

Leshy: You are still my one and only best friend! They’re just the love of my life, nothing more!

Lamb: But I’m still the platonic love of your life, right?

Leshy: Of course bro!

Lamb: Bro...

Marko: What the-

I'm honestly hoping they're going to be the Gertude and Leitner power duo we weren't able to see much of in mag archives

im spreading heinrich and alice becoming best friends propaganda i dont care i love him immediately and i want them to gossip

Baa

Prototyping is going great!

*insert eldritch bleat*

Istg, you are a genius of a craftsman

I been working night and day to finish this second Nightmare Bill plush. He is killing my fingers and sleep schedule! He is almost done! ❤️😩👍

Huh....

Okay, so plan B. I'm going to roll a red dice and a purple dice with my eyes closed, highest score wins, it completely fair, and I get to show off my knucklebones board

*dice noises*

Goat wins! 5:3

This was actually my spare board, I'm painting the other one to look like the Lamb's bible

Which plushie should I make first, The Lamb or the Goat?

Whilst I'm definitely going to make both of them. It'll be more of a one at a time deal.

Anyways...

Whelp looks like our three-eyed husband won the poll!

The main inspiration for this plush is coming from artwork done by @beautysnake ...

...an incredible artist, go check out their stuff

So now that the goat project is coming to an end, I can either get started on the lamb or narinder since they're about even in terms of current development....

Aaand, since it totally didn't work like at all last time, why not have another poll.

Istg if it turns out a draw AGAIN, I'll make another book-themed knucklebones board just to roll the dice with (pls don't, I can't keep doing this to myself)
