Assorted traditional doodles this time! I pulled an allnighter to finish a hellish amount of assignments for uni... can you tell I was coping hard bc I was.

Avery is fortunately very expressive and fun to draw and they both kept me company all night 🫶🟢

What pulling 24h+ at the library after work will do to a feller 😔

Bonus: the full doodle spread and D3rlord3 ahh looking logo on a pair of pants I have 😭 Not it having Derek's initials on it too

alright people of tumblr you get my AReGect art

[thestuffedalligator]

I’m going to level with you. I have listened to The Devil Went Down to Georgia for most of my life. We were a country music household, this was a staple of my childhood along with Johnny Cash, Garth Brooks, and that one Chipmunks country album.

I have no idea what “Fire on the mountain run boys run/The Devil's in the house of the rising sun/Chicken in the bread pan picking out dough/Granny does your dog bite no child no” means and at this point I’m too scared to ask.

[dementian]

For once I can be of assistance.

Each of the lyrics comes from an old-time hickory song for fiddles, and is a lyric from that corresponding song.

"Fire on the Mountain" --> "Fire on the Mountain, run boys run"

Fire On The Mountain - Fiddle Player POV

"The House of the Rising Sun" --> "The Devil's in the house of the rising sun"

House of the Rising Sun

"Ida Red" --> "Chicken in the bread pan peckin' out dough"

Ida Red - Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys

"Granny Will Your Dog Bite" --> "Granny does your dog bite? 'No child, no'."

FTC #149 Granny Will Your Dog Bite

And for your furthered education, The Mountain Whipporwill.

Mountain Whippoorwill (aka How Hillbilly Jim Won the Great Fiddler's Prize)

[impossiblepackage]

this is the key part of the song, that a lot of people miss. people have this misconception that the contest between Johnny and The Devil is about who is the better fiddle player. but it isn't. its about who is the better fiddler.

in a time before things like radios and record players, every time you heard music was because there was somebody in the room with you playing an instrument. and many, many, many social events involved dancing, which requires music. so, if you're planning any kind of gathering in the american south or appalachia, you need to find a fiddler. and the fiddler's job is to play music that everybody knows and likes and can dance to.

the mistake The Devil makes in his bet with Johnny is that he misinterprets the contest as being about technical ability, so he has this big flashy song. he plays fast and impressively with a band of demons playing unfamiliar instruments in unfamiliar rhythms. he's definitely more skilled at playing than Johnny, and thinks he has it in the bag.

but Johnny wins because the contest is about being the best fiddler. the song uses these lines mentioned above as a shorthand for saying that Johnny is playing these songs. Johnny launches into a set of the most popular songs, played well, and that's what gives him his big win. A good fiddler knows all the hits, and can read the room to know what to play next. The Devil loses because he completely fails to read the room, and doesn't know the right songs.

[aftermathplanner]

So you’re saying that something not human is able to make music that is technically correct but falls flat because it is not connected to the people the community, the history around it that makes music powerful, and that johnny wins because he invokes the collective human spirit of everyone who’s ever danced together to these songs to dance with him as he plays.

Yes he’s technically skilled but in my opinion even the most beginner of fiddle players could win against the devil if they played from their heart

Funny how these things have a way of coming back around.

WHY DEREK LOOKS SO CUTE AWW

[zoof-katt]

Explanation! (In a world where they survive the whole situation) Since Avery was the intended vessel for Hastur / KIY, I think that being near him when D3r's migraines are really bad helps lesson them bc he (Avery) kinda siphons some of the eldritch god energy out of Derek for a moment. It makes Avery tired and a little spacey like he was in the church garden but thats okay bc they end up just taking a nap together! I imagine they have a bunk bed setup lol

This one was pissing me off during the rendering process and I also started working on a one shot based off this concept so maybe I’ll end up posting that on my Ao3, we’ll see :)
