Project 165?

AKA what my entire blog is about

I'm going to try to keep this short, but let's be honest, I'm going to ramble a little bit, so TL;DR: Project 165 is my story! I'm obsessed with it and it's probably going to be most of what I post, so I figured I would infodump a bit so people actually know what they're getting into. Synopsis below <3

Synopsis: A sickly young boy, destined for nothing but a slow and painful death, is “gifted” with the ability to speak to monsters. In a world overrun with them, such a gift is extraordinary. And catches the attention of the Institute for Monster Research and Control. Ripped from his home by his lover and forced into a new world, Simon must learn to fight tooth and claw for the survival of him and his newfound friends, no matter how much it hurts. And it will hurt. 

This story will cover triggering topics such as: verbal and physical abuse, manipulation, transphobia, and homophobia. I will be adding TWs for any posts that cover this, but if these are triggering topics for you, this might not be the story for you. Thanks for dropping by though! Chances are that most of this will not be explicitly shown in art or otherwise, but it may be alluded to, discussed, or vaguely mentioned. Also note that I do not always condone/support the actions of my characters. I am trying to tell a story.

honestly most of my blog will be about P165, whether it be art, quotes, story snippets, memes, or skits. Yes, I am obsessed. Maybe one day I'll write a book and publish it, but that's frankly pretty far away, so this is what I have for now. Thank you for reading! Character info coming soon <3

14, 15, 17 for Atzi for the most recent ask meme

Back at it again with this post :D

14. Do they have a favorite food? How often do they have it?

He doesn't have a favorite in particular. He likes genres of food! He prefers savory over sweet and has a particular fondness for spicy food. He's also a big fan of Mexican food! He just hates anything bland.

15. Did they have a life before this?

Not for long, but it was a good one while it lasted. He's happier now, to an extent.

17. Do they have a "squick" in their job? Something that bugs them (like blood under their nails) or pisses them off?

He has come to love and accept every part of his job, honestly. The only thing that pisses him off is when those he works with don't give it (or their "victims") enough respect.

4, 5, and 6 for Simon from that most recent ask meme?

WOAH HEY GUESS WHO'S ACTUALLY GETTING TO ASKS LMAO (I would never ignore you dw <3)

This is likely the game you're talking about :D

4. Do they groom themselves? What details about their appearance are chosen by other people?

Simon is forced to groom himself meticulously, to the point where he can be seen as obsessed with his appearance. During his time in the IMRC, his outfit, hair, and weight were all dictated by his "owner", Matthias. Because he was frequently sold for services, he was held to a very high standard and required to remain "conventionally attractive". Since leaving, he has let go of this, but only slightly.

5. How obedient are they? Are they defiant or more compliant?

This one really depends on when you look at it. At the start, Simon was perfectly obedient! Anxious and unsure, yeah, but when he was told to do something, he would. Then he grew up and the excuse of "I'm doing this because I love you" didn't quite work anymore. He got more rebellious, started talking back, and it really only got worse from there as the mistreatment increased.

6. Do they have a comfort object?

His knives are the closest you'll be able to get to that, so not really.

I was drawn to try drawing your character in my style; I hope you like it. I know it's sudden, my apologies.

Do you think the lamb ever knows it's being sacrificed?

This isn't actually the main piece I've been working on with him, but I wanted a break from that one because it's making me CRASH OUT

[theguiltywriter]

love when people, especially moots, like my posts about kaey and my other ocs ♡ its so validating and I love feeling seen but also a little part of my brain is like ah yes, you approve, this pleases me. fellow blorbo torturer has witnessed me torture my blorbo and seen fit to show their approval, I am blessed. honored to have an audience and know they too enjoy this lol

like I just imagine us raising our glasses to each other in passing as we both watch our respective blorbos experience the horrors. we all have excellent taste XD

I hate him guys

Hallo slimes, I'm back to posting art as usual!! [Hopefully]

I apologise for going MIA but a break was very needed [as short as it was] and I feel much better for it, I love and appreciate those who showed concern when I left. Long story short, my mental health had a slight decline and I was incredibly unhappy with both my art and the reception to it. I have since gotten over that and am returning to this account.

Kicking off by reposting some art from last year that I deleted [the pieces I'm still happy with at least]

There will hopefully be some new art on the way soon :)
