I Have No Excuse Other Than This Popped Into My Head And Wouldn't Leave Until I Drew It Shdjkfls

I've been celebrating OC Love month in my Discord and we've gotta celebrate the antagonists as much as the protagonists! So here we go, introducing another Bug Fables OC: Monarch, the Summer Azure Butterfly!

Admidst the war-torn Western lands, a bug appeared among them whose strength quickly became something to fear: A Summer Azure Butterfly by the name Monarch. A bug who seemingly appeared out of nowhere, Monarch began single-handedly leveling villages one by one using all sorts of wild magic. His reputation was quick to spread around, that an insect had somehow managed to master multiple types of magic and was using it to destroy everything in his path. Fire, electricity, poison, ice... He could control it all! With that incredible power, it seemed that conquest was easily within his grasps. When one city was leveled, he was already plotting to take down the next. Many bugs who have heard the tale wonder what drives him to such extremes. Is it powerlust? Greed? Vengence? But one theory prevailed among all of the rumors: That whatever it was, it was likely related to the crystals emerging from his shell and the large scar across his chest. What happened to this bug to cause him to turn out like this? Was he born a monster, or was he created to be one? But most importantly... When would his reign of terror end?

Some fun facts about Monarch:

Monarch is mentally incapable of sympathizing with his victims because he does not see them as being as human (bug??) as he is.

He believes that those who possess magic are above those who don't, though he still sees other magic-wielding bugs as beneath him.

Monarch is usually very level-headed and doesn't let emotions get in his way. The only time his emotions will ever overcome him is when faced with tightly-confining spaces, as Monarch has extreme claustrophobia.

There is only one bug who knows about his past. Monarch believes them to be alive, but has not seen them nor has any physical proof that they are still around.

The risk was calculated, but MAN am I bad at math!

This Pokemon stream has definitely been quite the adventure. With me not knowing much Pokemon alongside my innate wanderlust, it's a wonder I haven't been knocked out more than once during my gameplay.

Merry Christmas, Peck Necks! Thought I’d celebrate with a few festive birds~ enjoy the Conductor and my OC Scarlet in some holiday outfits~ 🎁🎄🎁

FRACTURED SHELL | Chapter 1 (Pages 6-10)

Leif's magic senses are tingling!

More comic let's gooo! So disclaimer: If you're wondering why the art style changed midway through these pages, it's because I've gotten a new drawing tablet~! It has definitely helped to streamline the drawing process though, I will say.

(Also fun fact, pages 7-9 were the first pages I made. Yes, even before the prologue pages, lol)

In other news, I now have a master post for this comic! Hopefully that will make it easier for you guys to find your place when reading ♥

It's been a hot minute since I've been able to do anything as far as either writing or drawing, so I'm gonna toss a doodle I did a while ago of me and my stream companion Enigma as Bug Fables characters ♥

I promised I’d upload more sketches then never did

So now I’m gonna drop this here with zero context

Enjoy

Reupload of the of the quirrelmon pic because now it be colored~💕

I had a random Bug Fables dream the other day where Team Snakemouth (Leif in particular) was being pursued by this shapeshifting creature that was taking their forms to attack them. None of them knew why it was coming after them until they were running away and ran into another moth. Outside of having a white shell and being older (physically speaking), the moth looked nearly identical to Leif. That’s when the team realized the shapeshifter was after THIS guy, and it had mistaken Leif for being him.

Also random moth dude ended up being the leader of an entire moth clan that Team Snakemouth decided to help after that encounter.

Maybe one day I’ll doodle this, but for now enjoy the cool dream I had (or at least, the part of it that made sense, lol)

Thank ya! I do have some answers to these!

I have actually juggled around some ideas for what mortal Radiance would look like, though I haven’t quite settled on one specific one. I’ve been digging around Tumblr looking at other people’s interpretations of her tho and trying to come up with my own.

I had always thought the mossy vagabonds were already infected by the time you first reach them. So their praise of the Radiance was more due to the infection’s influence than anything having to do with their own devotion.

As for my interpretation of the Seer giving the Dream Nail to the knight, I’d thought of it as her attempt to either a) see if the knight could quell her rage and bring her back to the deity she once was, or b) stop her rampage, as the Seer is well aware of the damage her goddess has caused (at least, that was my interpretation for her last line before she disappears, about atoning for her clan’s mistakes). She still believes in the Radiance, but she is not following merely on blind faith. She is aware of what her Goddess has become, but she still hopes that things can be made right, whatever that may be.

I.. actually totally forgot about that line, tbh xD I might have to rethink on that headcanon then, lol. Perhaps some kind of argument between them, or her trying to reinstate her reign by being like “NO NIGHTMARES, ONLY DREAMS”

Could anyone share their opinions/theories/headcanons about the Pale King, the Radiance, and their feud?

Ta-da~! Decided to make a design for what Underfell Alphys would look like wearing a formal dress. Also decided to go back to digital art, since I haven’t really done so in quite a while. I love the way it ended up turning out~

This was originally a doodle made for my RP blog @thebrokenlabnerd, but I ended up liking it so much I decided to upload it to this blog instead. Hope you guys like it!
