AU CONCEPT!

MAJOR, MAJOR BASEGAME OUTER WILDS SPOILERS

^

^

I DO MEAN IT. MAJOR.

Okay. Now that they’re gone.

I have an AU ive been working on. (And Art for it, too!)

ENDLING AU:

Inspired by the extremely recent transmissions displayed in the Vessel - what if there were a means of connecting with the Nomai after the loop had been broken already?

Art i made, first and foremost. If i am egged on enough i may make a fic out of it.

First one, is some ancient Nomai, to get a good idea of what they look like as they are seen in the game. Second, is my idea for a Modern Nomai.

A doodle of two nomai after the plot has kicked off. Both of these two are ocs! Almost every nomai you will see out of this au is an OC contributed by a friend! But these two are mine.

Speaking of, here is Ficus. Hatchy’s rescuer and resident dad. Ill definitely explain more of the plot later, but for now, here you all go. Feel free to shoot me asks about the AU, and ill answer them for everyone!:)

Hey, this has a fic now! Read it here! More to come soon. ::}

Thae: I am SO EXCITED to read this.

My biggest pet peeve with the game was that I spent the whole time thinking about how I could rescue everyone so the ending was unsatisfying at first bc I . just didn't listen to all the signs that telegraphed the actual end XD

I MISSED VALENTINES but here here take this little slatespar sketch of the two giggling nefariously over a shared idea. explosions etc

[dranas-doodles]

Feldspar just hit me with a wave of emotions -- They weren't romantic with slate in source memories but did have something special nontheless -- Gwen

Wynn: God, this took forever. Hello internet. This is a system "photo" started March 31st, which is our system discovery date. Yes, if you haven't seen other posts, we're a system! We call ourselves The Hope System (if anyone has tips for rebranding the blog let us know?? This is the old host's handle so it's awkward as hell to use. TBH might just create a new blog for us?? Not sure.)

Also, if y'all wanna see a speed paint lmk. We used Procreate, so we have a recording, albeit of questionable resolution.

This pic is already out of date, but for those who care, below is a list of alters pictured (left to right, front to back.. starting with the frontmost row). If they are a fictive, their source is included if they still significantly identify with or look like the source material.

Gwen

Wynn

Wish

Niko (OneShot)

Crowley (Good Omens)

Kelyn

Kai (Slay The Princess)

Stella (Spiritfarer)

Savvy

Asher

Assecula (She Ra And The Princess Of Power [DoubleTrouble])

Gawaine

Z'rorir

Aaron

As far as WHY this is out of date:

Dormancy/fusion: Crowley. Awakening: Feathers. New splits: Odysseus, Rambly, A Super Normal Duck (it doesn't have a name ;-;), and a space twink, possibly.. again no name and nobody knows where they are.

Yesterday on Mar. 18, 2024, in the UK a bill effectively banning trans-affirming care to minors was not passed because three MPs talked about an animal rights bill, and specifically ferrets, for 5+ hours, preventing the bill even being discussed.

This is, obviously, not the end of the conversation and the bill still may be passed. But at least today, we wen thanks to Ferrets.

PS: We're still not dead! We just have been making a lot of super personal art we're not prepared to drop on here til we make a proper system introduction.

[dranas-doodles]

Hi guess who posted on the WRONG FUCKING BLOG again.

~ Wynn

would you guys buy this if I printed it as a sticker? Thinking about bringing it to cons and selling it once I get the plushie biz up and running.

"I have been mortal, and some part of me is mortal yet. I am full of tears and hunger and the fear of death, although I cannot weep, and I want nothing, and I cannot die. I am not like the others now. For no unicorn has ever been born who could regret. But I do. I regret."

(please click to see full image and look at the detail in each register!)

I love The Last Unicorn. It was one of the most significant books in my childhood, and one of the only ones that ever could make me cry. This quote has stuck with me my entire life. I hope to one day meet Peter S. Beagle in person!

i love ur characters and their stories. can u tell me more about gwen & reese? are they dating?

---- *Gasp* You have no idea how happy it makes me to see someone interested in The Nighthawk Chronicles here *squeaks*

The short answer is yes, they are.

The long answer is that they both are right now and will be- let me explain

The two are characters in my book series, with Gwen being one of the protagonists (W is the other). He meets Reese for the first time in book 1 (still editing that one x.x) but they won’t have romantic interest in each other until somewhere in book 2-3 (not quite sure yet, but that’s the plan). So by that criteria, they are not together yet.

However, I also use all of the characters in ropleplays. The way this is accomplished is via an alternate timeline/au where Gwen gains the ability to transfer himself and others between worlds. This way I can have my cake and eat it too. Anyways, since this timeline has progressed faster than I can write, they ARE currently together in this timeline.

That being said! They are absolutely my OTP and fluff abounds. and thank you for the compliments, Anon. If you’re interested in learning about all things TNC, you can do so at https://dranabrooke.home.blog/ (Which I have been neglecting a bit lately, but it’s still got excerpts and info pages!)

[dranas-doodles]

Haha #outdated. I ended up changing up the story in my most recent (and, with any luck, last) rewrite, and they are sadly no longer a thing, at least in book 1- I ended up wanting to focus on a different dynamic more in the series than adding a romantic one

Happy Halloween, everyone!

I spent most of the month unsure what to draw for Halloween, but a few days ago I came up with the idea of making a picture with an alternate version of Dusted Blue I made a while back called Vale, who’s vampiric aesthetic fits the holiday.

I also decided to include some characters from people I’ve met on Discord, so here’s the lovely characters in the front and their creators:

Quiz - @thewhymster

Savvy - @dranas-doodles

Maco - @erakin

[dranas-doodles]

Eh! Thank you so much Cyrus! It looks beautiful!

Sorry it took so long to reblog I’ve been busy

[thewhymster]

“Come on, let’s go.” Gwen allowed himself to be pulled to his feet and kept reeling in his senses until it was easier to remember. Remember where he was. Remember that he was alive. That he was saf…
