Last One Out of San Monstroso

So as you probably know by now if you follow this blog, the San Monstroso rp community has been winding down for a while and it’s pretty much been declared dead by consensus. It was fun while it lasted and I made some truly good friends, and I think it’s better that we remember the good times rather than be sad about it.

What am I going to do with this blog? Honestly, I haven’t decided. I know I’m not going to delete it, I love Padge dearly and I plan on carrying him over to a new setting. But I have a lot on my plate and having that world ready for show might be a long time coming.

I think I’m just going to leave this here. Kind of a single exhibit in a greater museum display of a thing that was really cool for a time. I hope I see you all in the future, and if this is the last thing you happen to read from me, even if we didn’t know each other well you touched my life in some way and I wish you all the best

As my boy would probably say, LATER DUDES!

Hi! I’m trying to come back from this or should I say sorry for going ghost. I really wanna come back and do great. A lot of things has happened, things I won’t say because it involves people in my life. I don’t wanna cause problems for them. While life was kicking my butt, I decided I wasn’t in the right mind or mood.

Which was a lie to myself and cause me to ignore my responsibility to bring you some decent art and lore. Most importantly, being part of a great group of @san-monstroso. I’m still scared to talk to them because I feel like they’ll be upset or disappointed at me. I would like to apologize for not bring you anything and please forgive me.

I wanna come back and start drawing my baby, Chris. I still wanna thank the people who help me create him, from naming ( @bauscheussetime) and giving me a hand (literally, @monsterpadge). I wanna give thanks to @cryer-labush and @drawotion for drawing him, when I didn’t think anyone would. Also @asknlarchivist and everyone who asked about him.

This does sound like I’m leaving, but I’m not going to. I started this to get back to draw and improve on it. In order to do that, I must ask y’all to not do any fanart of him. Seeing people do it, does bring me joy, but there’s always a bit of jealousy and sadness. I think to myself of why can’t I draw like that? Why am I sooo bad? So, I need to change that thought process and work on it and ask to hold off on any fanart. You people are beautiful and kind.

Without further ado, I will post more drawing, lore, answers, and participate with the group. I have a need and passion to draw this boy more. HE’S MY BABY AND NEEDS ME!!!

((posting some new official art for the boy so I can finally complete my long delayed application!))

[monsterpadge]

Apparently it’s national junk food day... Padge has no idea and you caught him in the act of eating one of his favorite guilty pleasure snacks. ((It has been many moons since I drew the boy, let alone responded to one of @san-monstroso prompts, I need to do both more often!))

Reblog if it's okay for people to come into your askbox and ask about your OCs

Even if I’ve never spoken to them, even if I don’t know them from a hole in the wall, even if they’re on anon, people asking questions about my OCs make my day.

[monsterpadge]

Which one of your OCs could yell “COWABUNGA” with the least amount of irony?

[monsterpadge]

There’s more of these??

Padge Facts part 3: Pizza Hoard

If you’re looking for the finest pizza baked with genuine dragon fire in San Monstroso, you’re gonna want to visit Pizza Hoard today! (Not coincidentally, this is also Padge’s home and part time job.)

the Hoard has been a San Monstroso institution for 73 years; it’s small but a reputation for quality keeps them going. Padge lives in a little efficiency apartment on the second floor of the building, originally occupied by the founder in his early years. He pays part of his rent by delivering pizzas for the owner operator. So let’s meet her!

MIRA VALENCIANO: the granddaughter of the pizzeria’s founder, Mira is small but scrappy. She was a shy kid who’s learned to be bold and take-charge by running the Hoard, and she loves the place with all her heart. She may seem a little sarcastic but under the surface she’s extremely soft-hearted (taking in shiftless guy like Padge is a classic example of this.)

Sadly, the only thing she lacks is the ability to breathe a hot enough flame to fire the ovens, so that’s where this guy comes in...

VINCENZO VALENCIANO: Vinny to his friends (which is everyone), he’s Mira’s nephew (5 years younger to the day). He’s a goof-off and a shameless flirt with ABSOLUTELY ANYONE who seems like they’d be into it; not the hardest worker but his strength and fire keep the Hoard running as much as Mira’s can-do spirit. (he generally likes Padge but they just don’t click conversationally.... lot of awkward silences there.) 

((Both the Valencianos are open for asks and interactions on this blog also! Just be sure it’s clear who you wanna talk to, if interest is sufficient I might make a side blog just for them.))

Padge Meets the Headphones

It was a late Thursday afternoon when he found them. Leon’s Music & More had finally gone out of business (they’d been struggling for a while) and like padge figured, they tossed whatever they couldn’t sell in the dumpster out back. Most of it was too broken or worn to fix; shards of vinyl records, frayed wires, shattered glass.... but one thing seemed salvageable: a pair of old earphones, with a bent antenna and monster face decals on each side. 

Padge fished them out, and wet to put them on.... might need a little repair, but they looked like a good fit. That’s when HE HEARD IT FOR THE FIRST TIME...

<7-8 second hiss of static, gradually fading into voices as if some invisible tuning knob was being adjusted> “AAAAAAAND good Thursday evening to you, all you fine and lovely monsters out there!
