you see this thing? don’t fucking use it. ever. use your own brain instead.

if you need story planning templates @ellipsus-writes has tons, please use theirs.

[halfbakedideas]

also, disrespectfully, fuck all of you. you do not care about storytelling if you support a site like this.

generative AI is, in fact, destroying our world and if you’re denying that, you need to wake up right now.

A little silly outfit swap sketch I did with Good Omens x Beetlejuice! I hope my handwriting is readable

I had so much fun drawing this! Maybe I’ll continue doing more crossover sketches in the future

no, really, Beej 🙄

Actually I have several sketches where Lydia puts Beetlejuice in his place or helps bring him to his senses. Over time I'll publish all of them, possibly all at once or maybe not who knows

For now I just want you to know that there will be more than one such sketch Х)

honestly it’s kind of upsetting how much of the autism experience is just being shamed out expressing yourself in any way that’s normal for you and learning to keep everything to yourself so you’re not shamed for being weird and then being shamed for being so quiet because it’s also weird to be quiet but if you tell this to anyone else they’ll say “why do you care so much what people think” and that’s when the ancient ape part of your brain gets ready to beat them to death

Alr angst animatic time

I was rewatching Bojack Horseman and I realized this audio fit Beej really well

I imagine after the events of the musical and after the BFFFFs make up, Beetlejuice partly regrets getting his mother eaten by a sandworm, even though Juno was terrible person. He doesn’t regret saving Lydia though.

For plots sake, I’m going to say Juno is dead-dead here. I headcanon that all 100% demons are just normal ghosts who made a deal with Netherworld higher ups (kind of like applying for a manager position) so they can’t revive themselves if eaten by a sandworm. The only things truly born from the Netherworld are eldritch gods. (That’s where Beej gets the Shoggoth last name from.) Juno thought that by marrying and having a child with an eldritch god, she could have that kind of power under her finger tips. Unfortunately, BJ took more after her in appearances, the only outwardly noticeable trait from his father being the color changing hair which Juno despises. Thus, Juno has always seen BJ as a failure because he’s not eldritch god enough, even though he does have powers from his father that he just doesn’t use often or doesn’t know he has

What if Nya merged with the sea when she was a child?

She heard the voice calling from a river, and followed it, because she didn't know better and it sounded like home.

Kai saw his sister, swimming like usual. But when he looked again, she was gone. A liquid shape that resembled Nya waved once and vanished.

Or, what if she didn’t, but only because Kai stopped her?

She was constantly trying to slip away and answer the call, and he had to always be watching her, grabbing her and hauling her away from the water before it could steal her.

And that was how Kai’s fear of the water started. Because it was constantly trying to steal his sister.
