What does your CV condiment king look like?

cause I remember in one of the recent episodes of Rogues that Kieran said “Even after what they’ve done to my family?;to my face?!” And I’m kinda getting a “phantom at the opera” vibe

I have a picture that @hermannco was kind enough to draw of Condiment King posing for his "Harper's Own" photograph for his labels. He keeps a beard, because it hides the scars running from his mouth, up his cheeks.

The act has a few names (Glasgow Smile, Chelsea Grin, etc.) and it was a parting gift from Oswald.

Combined with sunken eyes, broken nose, and a cauliflower ear, Kieran is not someone you want to meet in a dark alley, or be kidnapped by.

EXTRA LIFE 2K25!

That’s right, folks - it’s happening again!

After having to miss last year’s Extra Life, I’m going to throw my hat, sanity, and general wellbeing into MADNESS for another 24-hour LIVESTREAM-A-GANZA!

Since I’ve moved to Saskatchewan, I’ll be playing for the Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital in Saskatoon! Opened in 2019, this hospital was a VERY MUCH needed installation for paediatric care in northern Canada.

In my usual vein, I’ll get some party games going (Jackbox and the like) as well as some of the titles that have been suggested to me.

The fun starts Saturday, November 8th @ 11am CST / 12pm EST, and will run for the full 24 hours (with the occasional break peppered in for fun).

The stream will be RIGHT HERE!

You can donate RIGHT HERE!

I hope you can make it out at some point through the stream, but if you can share this around and let people, it’ll help me reach my goal of $1000!

[voiceboss]

Less than 24 hours until the fun begins!*

*I hope it's fun. I never have much confidence as a host.

[codotafterdark]

Should we make it to our goal in the 24 hour span, I will begin $INCENTIVES which usually means you'll get to hear your favourite voices say HORRIBLE things, so there's a reason to hit $1000 - we're already over 10% there!

The culture shock of being in America and trying to print some stuff, asking for an A4 and being looked like I sprouted 3 heads

It begins anew

[hermannco]

okay im sorry again for asking i really love testisim and i just so badly wanna have these questions answered

1. who's aramis? are they morart's kismesis, or was that just some stupid troll nickname i didnt understand entirely LOL

2. will we see more of taoobe's matesprit? he is so lovely and that drawing was wonderful.

3. canela seems to have some sort of flirty relationship with pretty much everyone, but does she have a matesprit already? (i also noticed in the forgotten paradx they have a metal arm like qerelo.. is that why they are so close?)

4. tyrone was probably one of the most well written characters out of the bunch and i love him so much. however i found it so funny that taoobe just snatched him if we went to the hills. do we know why?

5. qerelo. my lvoe. ok sorry i just love him buut i really wanna know how did he get his metal arm? and why is he so blushy blushy with everyone...

6. mafowl's hidden route was probably the hardest thing for me to ever do. 😭 but now that i understand why exactly they live together, do they ever get their dirty business done with qerelo as a sidekick, or is he left out?

and as for you i hope youre having an amazing day and doing great in life, happy belated birthday, enjoy your time, and i really hope to see more of these characters soon because theyre awesome... love u twin (platonically ur so awesome) and im sorry if these questions are too much im really fixated on this game

Kismesis and Eternal rival to death. Not that Aramis wants it to be to death but Morart does lol

Not canonically

She is a flirt. That is what she does. Paradx is... interesting. I will not elaborate even if I Want to.

Smt smt smt

5. Because he is a big softie inside that can't handle the pressures of being a high class authoritarian that he is forced to be. (Which is why he bothers to deal with a cerulean when he really shouldn't).

6. You don't shit where you eat. The business stays out of the house. Also because Mafowl knows he could be squashed if Qerelo has a bad day.

Honestly I have been looking at this ask for a bit, I gotta thank you a lot. Back when I was working with my gremlins I Didn't get that much feedback in a lot of ways. That alongside competing with things such as VE and personal issues with Homestuck destroyed all my want to finish the projects. I do think about them a lot.

I have decided to keep answers to myself because I KNOW if I tell anyone there is not a chance I Will ever finish it. The chance right now its still open, as these are characters I enjoy. It is just hard to create alone (Aka I don't have many homestuck invested friends as I did back then and my non homestuck group rarelly touched my fanwork lol.)

Monkey Wrench Episode 5 - Coming September 26th!

[hermannco]

Hi, bit of a weird question, but I saw you liked nicholasmage's post "why-you-should-read-the-felt-fanadventure" (would link but tumblr won't let me) of a "Felt" panel and that you may have been active in the HS fandom around when "Felt" was running. I've been hunting down panels for a while- do you happen to have any from "Felt" (or Professor's other adventure, Voices?) No worries if not, just thought I'd ask on the off chance you were willing/able to help. Thanks, have a good one

I was active and dont remember anything about it TBH, there is a chance I reblogged some of it but I couldn't tell you because I rarelly tagged anything back then.

Best of luck tho, a lot of these things are p gone out of the internet for whatever reason.

I'm feeling sad about things so I'm going to attempt to do a charity art auction!

I know I did one of these way back in ancient times but I can't remember how I did it. If anyone can suggest a less silly way to go about this please let me know.

I'll keep bidding open for a week. Please bid in $US to keep things uniform. Please INBOX me to bid. Please don't be on anon, so I can reply. Please don't use the tumblr messenger, it doesn't always work for me.

After the auction is over, if you're the winning bidder you can donate the amount of your bid to one of the campaigns cleared by GazaVetters. Once you've shown me your receipt we can arrange shipping.

Things to know:

I will need you to pay for shipping. I'm in Australia and from what I can see it may be around $15 - $30 USD. Once I've shipped the artwork I'll send you the receipt with the precise amount.

If the artwork is damaged or lost in transit I can refund you the shipping costs but obviously not the donation.

Drawings A1 - A6 are about 14.5 x 21cm ink, watercolor and gouache on 300 GSM paper

Drawings B1 - B3 are ink on 21 x 29.7cm lightweight non-archival copy paper

Drawings C1 - C14 are also ink on 21 x 29.7cm lightweight paper, slightly better quality than copy paper but still probably non-archival because I live for the now

None of these are ever going to appreciate in value even a little bit

I'll post a couple of updates throughout the week if I get some bids. Hopefully I don't make a complete tits-up of this ahaha wish me luck

[tanglefootcomic]

Sorry, I promise I'll try not to reblog this an annoying number of times, but since a couple of folks have asked the current winning bids are:

A6 - $25

B1 - $125

B2 - $25

B3 - $25

C4 - $150

C11 - $30

C14 - $200

No bids on any of the others yet, but there's still six days to go!
