Compiled some basic information I know about drawing fat characters for beginners since I've been seeing more talk about absence of really basic traits in a lot of art lately.

I was working all day and forgot to post this :( I wrote this for the amazing and wonderful @icescreamsoda who wanted Scar's hand in marriage. So, if you've ever wanted to marry Scar, now's your chance!
You never thought that today would actually happen. First, you thought you would never find anyone that would want to take this step with you. Then, when you met Scar, you were sure he wasn’t the type. So, even though you were very happy with him, you had been completely shocked when he had pulled out the ring.
After months of planning and anticipation, finally your wedding day was here. Even though Scar had planned out everything to the tiniest detail, you couldn’t stop your stomach from churning as you fiddled with your makeup. You were alone in the changing room, and the silence seemed to suffocate you. What if something went wrong? What if you messed up with your vows and looked like an idiot? Most of all, though, what if Scar was having second thoughts? He was so handsome and smart and wonderful, why the hell would he want to be with you? You certainly wouldn’t blame him if he thought better of this! You finally stopped trying to touch up your eyebrows, your hands were shaking too bad. You took a few deep, steadying breaths, trying to halt the swirling doubt.
“Wow….”
A quiet gasp snapped you out of your thoughts. You whipped around. “Scar, what are you doing here?” At the sight of him, everything seemed lighter. Suddenly, nothing else mattered. “Don’t you know it’s bad luck to see the bride before the ceremony?”
“I’M A MONSTER, DEAR, WE HAVE NO SUCH SUPERSTITION.” He stepped into the room, purple eyelights roving up and down your form. You weren’t in your wedding dress, but Scar (your soon-to-be husband, you reminded yourself with a thrill) still looked at you like you were the most beautiful person on earth. “I JUST WANTED TO CHECK ON YOU.”
“I’m doing fi-”
“AND DON’T LIE TO ME AND SAY YOU’RE FINE.”
You huffed. “Well, I am, so too bad.”
“YOU’RE CLUTCHING THAT EYEBROW PENCIL LIKE YOU’RE TRYING TO STRANGLE IT.”
You looked down, where you were, in fact, still throttling the pencil. “...That’s unrelated.”
Scar gently took your hands in his, looking deep into your eyes. He looked so handsome in his tuxedo, even though his jacket and tie were still undone. “If…If You’re Having Second Thoughts, You Can Tell Me.”
“What??? Of course not, I’m so excited! I just, I don’t know. I just feel like you can do better than me.” Surrounded by all the expensive decorations, decadent food, and gorgeous venue, you couldn’t help but feel…out of place. You had said that the wedding and honeymoon was the only time he was allowed to spend a lot of money on you, and he had really gone all out. It was very sweet, but you still felt like a clump of dirt surrounded by gemstones. Didn’t he deserve someone as classy and cool and…good as he was?
“DO BETT-WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???” Scar asked, aghast. “YOU ARE SO…SO GOOD, SO WONDERFUL AND SWEET AND PURE HEARTED. HOW COULD I POSSIBLY DO BETTER THAN YOU?”
You laughed a bit. “Come on, you’ve already got the ring on me, no need to lie.”
Scar growled softly. “DON’T EVER SAY I’M LYING ABOUT THIS.” He gently held your chin and tilted your head so you were looking him in the eyes. “You Are Perfect. I Love You. That’s Not Going To Change, No Matter What You Think About Yourself. I Promise.”
You leaned forward and kissed him gently. For a moment, the two of you were lost in the sensation, just enjoying the feeling of being pressed against each other. After a minute, you slowly broke apart.
“Okay, fine,” you smiled. “I love you, you love me, no more questions asked.” You gently pushed him away. “Now get out of here so that I can change.”
Scar laughed. “DEAL. NOW, GET READY. I NEED TO GET MY BROTHER TO CHANGE AND CHECK ON THE CATERERS. HOUND WORE THOSE HIDEOUS YELLOW SHOES AND CAT PATTERNED TIE! IT’S LIKE HE’S DELIBERATELY TRYING TO DESTROY THE ENTIRE COLOR SCHEME!!!”
You burst out laughing at his change in energy. “Okay, Bridezilla, get out of here, go make sure all the napkins are at a 45 degree angle or whatever.”
“AGH, AND THE NAPKINS, DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED! I ASKED FOR THEM TO BE FOLDED AND-NO MATTER, I’LL TAKE CARE OF IT, DON’T WORRY, LOVE! I WILL MAKE SURE EVERYTHING GOES PERFECTLY!”
He pressed one final kiss to your cheek before vanishing, obviously going to yell at Hound for a while or repress the tablecloths or something. As expected, he was being the world’s most annoying groom, but you wouldn’t have it any other way. With newly calmed nerves, you went back to your makeup, a large smile on your face.
---------------------------
You took a deep breath. Your legs were practically shaking. It was finally time. The ceremony. You had decided to go with a mix of human and monster traditions, so the room was arranged in a circle, with the altar in the middle and an aisle for each of you down the radius of it. You and Scar would meet in the middle, where Toriel was waiting to officiate, and Hound would certainly be sobbing his eyes out. You had gone over it in your head a thousand times, but it was still crazy that the moment was here.
Soon, the music cue played, and the doors swung open. You pulled your shoulders back, held your head high, and tried to ignore your nerves, focusing everything on not tripping in your expensive high heels as you started your slow procession.
You stepped out into the large, lavishly decorated room, and you could feel hundreds of eyes on you. So many important monsters were here, since Scar was such a high profile man, but all your family and friends had chairs near you, and their familiar faces made you relax just a bit. You beamed at them before turning and finally locked eyes with Scar.
Even from here, you could tell that his eyes were huge and heart shaped. He was looking at you like there was nobody else in the room. His tuxedo fit him perfectly, accentuating his barrel chest and his wide shoulders. You could just tell that he was fighting the urge to walk faster to get to you. Thinking that, you forced yourself to slow down. You had instinctively started walking faster when you saw him.
After what felt like an eternity, you reached the altar, and stepped in front of Queen Toriel. Sure enough, Hound (his outfit now matching the color scheme) was crying softly, trying to subtly wipe away his tears with his sleeves. You tried not to laugh as you and Scar took each others’ hands, a mirror of how you had done earlier that day.
“Monsters, humans, friends. While Underground, we did not have much to celebrate. Happy times were in short supply. Now, though, we have many reasons to rejoice, to gather together in peace. One of the best times is to celebrate love. Today, we celebrate the union of two wonderful people.” Toriel began her speech, but you and Scar weren’t paying much attention.
“You Look Wonderful,” Scar murmured.
“Would have been more impactful if you hadn’t snuck in to see me earlier,” you teased.
“You Take My Breath Away No Matter What.”
Well, that was sweeter than you had expected. You flushed and looked away, ignoring Scar’s smug grin.
“Hound, are you okay? You’ve been crying nonstop since the ceremony started,” you whispered.
“i-i-i’m not crying, i just have somethin’ in my eye!”
“What Is It?”
“tears!”
You and Scar both stifled laughter, which got a smile out of Hound.
“-but enough from me.” Toriel’s voice snapped you back to reality. “We are here to unite these two in marriage. Well, without further ado; the collars please!”
Once more, the doors on each side of the venue opened. From Scar’s side of the room came Chara, and from your side came your brother. He was holding Scar’s collar, and Chara was holding yours. This was a mix of human and monster wedding traditions that you and Scar had agreed on enthusiastically. The two of them slowly walked down the aisle, heads held high. Your brother made a few faces at you as he did, and you stuck your tongue out at him in return.
When they reached the altar, you took Scar’s collar from your brother. It was made of several strands of braided leather, with streaks of your soul color throughout. Scar obediently turned around and let you fasten the collar snugly around his clavicle. The dark color looked stunning on him, and you beamed at the sight, something possessive rushing through you.
After delicately running a claw along the leather, Scar turned to take your collar from Chara. Your collar looked more like a necklace, several layers of delicate gold chains shining in the light. Scattered throughout like stars, a few purple gemstones were inlaid into the metal. You turned around, and let Scar fasten it around your neck. It was cold on your skin at first, but quickly warmed up. It was light enough that you barely felt it, but when you moved, the chains gently traced your skin, almost like Scar’s claws did.
Toriel beamed down at you. “The two of you look lovely. You may now say your vows.”
Comfortingly, Scar took your hands in his once again. You took a deep breath. “Scar, when I met you, I kind of thought you were an asshole.” The crowd laughed, and Scar’s grin twitched upward. “I never, ever thought that I’d be here with you, about to promise myself to you forever. But I’m really glad that I am. You are the sweetest, dorkiest, most protective man I know, and I’m glad I broke through that crunchy exterior.
“I promise that I’ll be devoted to you, walk by you, support you no matter what you do, even when it’s really dumb and nerdy.” Scar laughed softly at that. His thumb gently stroked over your knuckles. “I know you’ve been through…a lot. You didn’t really have the best childhood, or adulthood, or…anything really. But now you’re here, and I hope I can make you happy. I want you to learn to love life, and to live a kinder life on the Surface.”
There was soft applause, and Scar beamed. He leaned forward and pressed his forehead against yours, eyes soft. You could practically feel his purrs reverberating through his whole body.
“You Are Everything,” he whispered gently.
You beamed, fighting down the watery feeling that was bubbling up. “Oh shush, you dork.”
Scar laughed softly, before straightening up and clearing his throat. At his normal (loud) volume, he started to speak, not looking away from you the whole time.
“MICAH, MY DEAREST. I ALSO NEVER THOUGHT THAT I WOULD BE HERE, IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. I NEVER THOUGHT I WAS WORTHY OF LOVE. I WAS NEVER…KIND, OR THOUGHTFUL, OR EVEN THAT GOOD OF A PERSON. I’VE DONE A LOT OF BAD IN MY LIFE.”
You frowned, and squeezed Scar’s hands. He squeezed back, and gave a soothing smile.
“BUT YOU SAW THROUGH ALL THAT. YOU SAW THROUGH THE SHIELDS THAT I PUT UP, THROUGH THE ASSHOLE THAT I USED TO BE, AND YOU FOUND…THE REAL ME. YOU WERE ABLE TO SHOW ME THE SKELETON THAT I THINK I COULD HAVE ALWAYS BEEN, DEEP DOWN. YOU’VE MADE ME A BETTER PERSON, AND FOR THAT I CAN NEVER THANK YOU ENOUGH.” To your shock, tears started welling up in Scar’s eyes. He let go of your hand for just long enough to brush his tears away, then right back, as if it hurt to let go of you.
“MICAH, WHEN YOU CAME INTO MY LIFE, EVERYTHING BECAME BRIGHTER. YOUR SMILE WARMS MY SOUL, AND YOUR LAUGH MAKES ME FEEL UNSTOPPABLE. FOR AS LONG AS YOU WILL HAVE ME, I PROMISE TO PROTECT YOU, AND YOUR HAPPINESS. I PROMISE TO STAND BY YOU IN ANYTHING YOU STRIVE FOR. AND FINALLY, I PROMISE TO LOVE YOU, FULLY, OPENLY, AND WITHOUT ANY REGRETS, JUST AS YOU’VE LOVED ME.”
As he spoke, more tears threatened to slip out of Scar’s sockets. And yours, too, but you weren’t going to admit it. Throughout it all, though, you refused to let Scar’s hands go. As he finished, you pulled his hands up to your mouth and kissed his knuckles.
That got a full sob out of Scar. “FUCK…I TOLD MYSELF I WOULDN’T CRY!” He half laughed. That got a wave of laughter from the audience, and you chuckled just a bit.
“Well, that was lovely!” Toriel brought the attention back to the altar. She wiped a few tears from her own eyes, and the both of you tried really hard to ignore the still-sobbing Hound next to her. You noticed your brother awkwardly patting his shoulder. “I think I speak for us all when I say that the two of you deserve a long, happy life together. As the Queen of all Monsters, I now pronounce the two of you married. You may now kiss!”
Without hesitation, Scar pulled you close, and you crashed your lips to his teeth. The cheers of the audience barely registered in your head. All that mattered now was Scar, your husband. The word sent a thrill through your entire body.
Before you knew it, Scar broke away for a moment, and the world flipped. Scar had just dipped you! That absolute dork! You huffed a bit, but couldn’t be mad for too long when he kissed you once again. You held his shoulders tight, but you didn’t have anything to worry about. You knew he would never let you go.
--------------------------------
“You’re lucky that you cried during your vows.”
“OH? WHY IS THAT, MY DEAR WIFE?”
You rolled your eyes, but couldn’t stop the smile that spread across your face at the word. “Because if you didn’t cry, I would’ve kicked you in the shins until you did.”
Scar laughed loudly. He had certainly drunk a little too much, usually he wasn’t this giggly. “I SHOULDN’T HAVE BOTHERED TO PRACTICE SO MUCH, THEN!”
“Practice your vows? I thought you did great!” You took a sip of your own drink. The dinner and all its speeches were over, and now people were dancing and mingling. The perfect chance for the two of you to slip away for a moment.
“NO NO NO, PRACTICE NOT CRYING.” Scar leaned against the tree. There was a huge, beautiful garden at the venue, and you and Scar had been walking around it for a while, giggling and sloshing your drinks. “I HAD…STARS THIS IS SO STUPID. I HAD A PICTURE OF YOUR FACE, AND I CUT OUT A PICTURE OF A WEDDING DRESS AND TAPED THEM TOGETHER. THEN I LOOKED AT THAT AS I PRACTICED MY VOWS.”
The admission practically had you doubling over. “N-n-no fucking way! You fucking goober!”
“I WAS NERVOUS, OKAY!” The flush on his face wasn’t just from the alcohol. “I DIDN’T WANT TO LOOK LIKE A FOOL BECAUSE I WAS TOO TONGUE TIED!”
“Is that why you snuck in before the ceremony? Didn’t want to be too surprised by how damn hot I look?”
“YES.”
Oh. Well. That blunt admission hit you more than you expected. Now it was your turn to flush. “Well! I think you don’t look too bad yourself!”
Scar smirked as he sipped at his wine, clearly loving the flustered look on your face. He turned and plucked a flower from the ground, stem full of delicate purple flowers, and placed it in your hair. “These Flowers Pale In Comparison To You, My Love.”
“Did you practice that line too?”
“Maybe.”
You pouted and turned to a nearby shrub. It kind of looked like a lilac, but you think it was a myrtle. You pulled one of the bunches of flowers off the stem and placed it stubbornly in his lapel. “If I had known you would be so sweet today I would have thought of some lines myself.”
“It’s Okay, Micah, Your Actions And Love Speak Louder Than Any Words.”
“Oh come on, where are you getting these lines??”
“I’ll Never Tell.”
The two of you laughed, and sat on a bench. You leaned your head on his shoulder and looked up into the warm night sky. Everything was so perfect. You had always thought it was cheesy when people said this, but your wedding had really been the best day of your life.
So far, you thought excitedly. You still had your entire life with your new husband to look forward to.
After a few minutes passed in silence, Scar pointing out a few constellations to you, you heard someone tromping through the garden. Beneath you, Scar’s shoulders instinctively tensed, but relaxed when Hound rounded the corner.
“there you guys are! c’mon, people want cake, i guess this is another human thing? you guys gotta cut it or somethin’.”
“Alright, we’re coming.”
“STARS, HUMANS HAVE SO MANY TRADITIONS.”
“I mean, we haven’t even done them all. Someone had to sneak into my room to see me.”
“I’M STILL NOT SORRY.”
“man, you saw them getting dressed? scandalous, ya gotta wait til the honeymoon to bone.”
“Hound, we’ve fucked before.”
“gasp, premarital sex? in my good christian household? i never!”
“YOU’RE THE BIGGEST SLUT I KNOW.”
“Do you even know what christian means?”
“vaguely.”
As the three of you walked back to the venue, your hand held firmly in Scar’s, you couldn’t help but look forward to it. Not only to the honeymoon, though when your husband carried you out of the venue that night you couldn’t help but be excited. What you were most excited for was being able to wake up next to him every day, going through life with him, and loving him. Judging from his excited smile, you knew he felt the same.
I cannot believe there's absolutely no way to watch free shows and movies anymore, there are too many paid streaming platforms and pirating websites have viruses and ads preventing you from watching it uninterrupted((.)) id rather follow the rules and purchase media moving forward because it is too inconvenient. Seriously, free and no ads or viruses with 1080p streaming is DEAD.
Exactly! It's freaking annoying when I want to watch movies but I would have to subscribe to like 24 different services . Just to watch the shows that I like.
i like using streaming apps but there are waaaay too many and they're all stealing my data .i wish there was a secure and organized way to have millions of shows and movies available one one app. but alas. we've truly gone full circle back to cable + now it spies on you. its a real shame. i dont want to fill my device storage with tons of boring and stupid cash grabs.
