the fact the rosette yearner's default expression was completely flat disinterest at all hours of the day implies this is also the scoundrel's default emotional response, and they are constantly actively choosing to go >:3 instead

[thegreatyin]

this means soullessdrel, who sees very little point in keeping up appearances, naturally returns to their natural mode of -_- in response to everything ever. because why should they bother pretending to be smug and happy when all they feel is bitterness?

[thegreatyin]

this is NOT cute!!! dahlie only goes -_- when they're in distress!!!! they need :3 to live!!!!!!

[forlorn-plushie]

Dahlie heard that if you force a smile it'll make you happier and despite locking in and going >:3 constantly it, very clearly, has not worked.

[thegreatyin]

no way. 99% of mr cardses stop going >:3 just before they achieve eternal happiness. keep >:3ing <- soullessdrel repeats this every day in his mind but he can't bring himself to do it. he feels horrible. he wishes he could go back to being whole.

[queenburd]

Keep it up Mr Cards. You’re so so close to eternal happiness and the future where all your coworkers think you are just the coolest and want to kiss you. Just a liiiiittle further.

A Little How to Comics Lesson

A little comics lesson I drew with a mouse a little over a year ago. Originally intended to just be notes to myself, but I decided to write it so it would help fellow comics makers out.

You should also read the TF2 comic.

@thegreatyin bat in a cup on a cup

[girlkisserr]

The albatross falls with miserable speed, but the trail of blood it leaves behind seems to hang in mid-air, a streak of red tracing its way from above. It lands at your feet, a wretched and contorted thing. Your hunger disappears into a deep nausea.

[codexnuminous]

actually speaking of chiral + glasses. the WORST thing about chiral being unambiguously a full bat by the time the 21st century rolls around

is that it means this^ face will never get to wear heart-shaped glasses.

[codexnuminous]

this is not a sight that london will ever see. and we all just have to live with this

Anachronism? In MY Fallen London? It’s more likely than you think!

[thegreatyin]

hello and welcome to my brilliant new gameshow;

ARE YOU SMARTER THAN MR FIRES?

there's a devious imposter in the masters' midst. a rogue londoner has crafted an all-concealing robe and snuck into the heart of the bazaar. they've tampered with taxes, stolen from hoards, sabotaged schemes, and have even gone as far as to bite their ""coworkers"" a truly nonsensical number of times in a row.

these atrocities CANNOT stand. somehow, someway, they MUST be brought to justice.

🫵 and YOU have been chosen for this all-important task.

it is your responsibility (and obligation, under threat of being subjected to mr pages' terrible poetry) to figure out which robed tyrant is the bat behind the slaughter. if you fail, the real mr veils will almost certainly kill you for failing to notice its clearly superior taste in fashion. if you succeed... well, it'll probably kill you anyway, but at least you'll die with the knowledge that you're really really good at spot the difference games. or perhaps the imposter will find it in his fluke-core heart to discard his disguise and save your life? you can only dream.

you only have one day, and one shot. you have to make this count. with the threat of death and/or crushing indignity looming from above, you finally ask yourself once and for all...

which of these figures is the REAL mr veils?

bat A is real! bat B is the imposter!

bat B is real! bat A is the imposter!

Clarification of my response

[gobbolin]

Hallo. Did I post something twice by accident or is my dash not working?

[gobbolin]

[gobbolin]

[codexnuminous]

okay so this pony maker is really fun actually. turning my creature into a horse..

[gobbolin]

Title!

The crabs are back!

[redstonedust]

a week into artfight i would like to give out the following reminders: it is okay if you thought you were going to participate but ended up not having time. it is fine if you started out enthused and then lost steam. you do not owe anyone revenges. you are not 'behind' and you are not letting anybody down. it is a silly little game for fun. do not forget this.

[ren-acoelomate]

If u draw even just one thing for art fight: that’s amazing! You drew one thing! That’s rlly cool I wanna see

[queenburd]

im going to cripple the evil bat even further by giving it the common cold

[queenburd]

the Tailor is not going to take care of it while it's CLEARLY dying, btw

[queenburd]

beautiful vision here, let me just add that I can see this thing wanting to hide the fact something is wrong with it bc a) never show weakness and b) clearly the Tailor is the one who poisoned it so do not give them the satisfaction of knowing it's working

so the Tailor can clearly tell SOMETHING is wrong but the thing is trying (failing) to suppress the wheezing sneezing coughing hacking all while SCOWLING at them and then when they ask "what the fuck is wrong with you" it responds with either "NOTHING. NOTHING IS EVER WRONG" or "you obviously know what's wrong", A++ communication skills

when they finally put the pieces together the thing is bitter as hell and all they can do is fucking laugh at it as they are walking away. big scary vake caught a cold. lol. loser.

it would LIKE to screech at their retreating back but it is interrupted by the aforementioned wheezing hacking coughing dying. it deserves this.

[gobbolin]

been a long while since i drew in pencil so i apologise for the somewhat dubious proportions

[gobbolin]

i saw this trend of posting fallen london stats so:

My main (not Title)

The chess stat was decreased by something and I haven't had time to grind it up yet.

Below is Title

[selfcarereminder]

[thegreatyin]
