⭐️Reed's Rodeo!⭐️

A Deltarune OC askblog, coming to you live from TV World's western set! Ask local cowboy Shadowguy Reed some questions! [Set before Chapter 3. Inbox is currently open!]

[reeds-rodeo]

(Rules and additional information under the cut, please read before sending in any asks!)

Rouxls!

(Pronounced “Rules”)

Keep it family-friendly, folks! That means no NSFW content, nothing suggestive, and minimal swearing, please!

Roleplay is a-okay! Feel free to send in questions in character, say hi as an OC or canon character on anon, whatever you’d like! Just be sure you label your ask properly so Reed can tell who’s speaking! Don’t pull Reed into other people’s scenes, however, and no super long, wall-of-text asks, either, since answers will be drawn. He doesn’t have the attention span for that—-

No shipping! Period! Reed is aroace and the mod doesn’t wanna deal with any of that here.

Magic!Anon is allowed! Give the boy a cookie or something if you want.

Do not spam the inbox! (You can Spamton the inbox, though) If I don’t like a question or don’t have an answer for it, I just won’t respond. Sending in the same question over and over will more than likely result in you being blocked.

Do not repost my art or use it elsewhere without my permission! I shouldn’t have to say this, but just to be safe! If you’d like to use a drawing as a pfp or something, all you have to do is ask first!

Fanart is great! And if I’m mentioned, I’ll be sure to reblog any drawings made for me! …but please ask for permission to write Reed into any sort of fanfic. I’m not comfortable with Reed appearing in fics unless I give you express permission to include him first. No exceptions.

Please be patient! This blog is a way for me, the mod, to draw my OC more, and get back into doing askblog content. This is entirely for fun, no big story or anything like that, I just want to do chill, low stakes ask stuff again. So there is no schedule or anything like that, new posts will go up when they’re ready.

———

Additional Info:

Reed’s buddy Voxel (GameCube controller Zapper) will also available for asks! Voxel belongs to my friend CaramelChopper, who also provided some of the sprite artwork for the blog! He makes cool stuff, go give him a look!

Reed uses he/him pronouns! (And the mod uses they/them!)

This blog has a Western setting! There will be guns shown! Please block the tags #cw guns and #tw gun if you don’t want to see those!

OOC asks will be tagged under #askmodmello! OOC comments from the mod will usually be found in the tags, or labelled as OOC.

Text boxes are made using the Demirramon generator, found here!

If you like my work, consider checking out my art blog, or my Henry Stickmin ask blog! I also have a YouTube channel, but I literally never post there.

Art Fight

An art gifting game

But a day before the event starts, I finally finish all my Art Fight prep!! Surprise surprise, I’m actually prepared this year! All my characters now have descriptions, many have brand new ref sheets, I have an attack hitlist, and my profile is actually decorated, too! Come take a look around if you’re also on Art Fight and looking for someone from Team Comedy to attack!! >:)

I have a bunch of goals set out for this year, which you can take a look at here if you’d like! Credit to PhoenixMasked on YouTube for the base bingo card!!

Attack my beloved rat boy Roy and you will have my eternal thanks—-

And Vibron gets to play this year, too!! (They needed a new ref badly, my first few drawings of them are rough—-)

And… wait just a second, who’s this guy??! Another Shadowguy?! Meet my beloved second son Roy, everybody!! He was made back in September of last year, though I haven’t really found a way to show him off up until now! I’d say he doesn’t bite, but uh… this is my one guy who does—-

My first three featured slots are all Deltarune OCs this year!! Plus there’s a couple extra Pippins I added who didn’t make the top 7! One might even be a little familiar… Come take a look at my silly guys if you plan on participating! :D

Forgot to post this right after the semester ended, but here’s my finished matte painting!! Finally got the chance to draw some fanart for some lovely local Shadowguys, namely Clive, Matteo, Frank and Henry! I didn’t get to do much in terms of the animation, and I had to do human versions for the sake of the assignment, but hopefully you guys like the final result!! ❤️

Drawn in Procreate and animated using NukeX!

WIP shots and still image under the cut!

Final render

Rough composition thumbnail

Thumbnail paintover + rough values

Matteo WIP + Foreground

Clive WIP

Frank + Henry close up (they were both done in one day so no wip shots)

hey if you looked through all this you’re cool and awesome ❤️

Where are you going for thanksgiving Reed? Is your family coming over? Or are you going to visit?

[ * He’s going to visit his family! Not just for Thanksgiving, he wanted to visit anyways. He hasn’t seen them in a while, so he’ll probably stick around through December for Christmas and New Years, too. ]

[ * Currently, he’s trying to decide what to pack. ]

[ * He does, but… the rest of his family will be wearing theirs, he doesn’t want to stick out…! And they haven’t seen him in his cowboy outfit before, they might not recognize him…!! ]

[ * “I’s really don’t think dat’s gonna be an issue…” ]

[reeds-rodeo]

magic!anon: you're blue now

[ * (Already blue. Not much has changed.) ]

[ * (A process has occurred. He isn’t sure what changed, and this ultimately does nothing, but it has occurred all the same.) ]

[reeds-rodeo]

[*There's a shadowfied package here]

[*Inside, there's a glowing red bandana and a note]

@shadowguy729

((wanted to send a while ago, but forgot sorry sorry T-T))

[ * Hm? Looks like there’s one more gift under the table! ]

[ * (Reed received a Glow Bandanna!) ]

[ * Oh, it’s from his friend, Behop!! It glows, too, just like they do! ]

[ * It… isn’t shadow-ifying!! ]

[ * He gets to have a color!!! ]

[Attached to the message is a photo of a Blue Pippins with a silver chain around their neck, waving to the camera. Looking at the relative size of the pen they're holding, they seem to be unusually small - about the size of one of the Tenna plush toys at the gift shop!] Hey Vibron! I'm not sure if this'll help you feel a little less alone, but I thought I'd let you know, you're not the only Blue Pippins out there! I'm sure Reed really appreciates all the hard work you're doing, but don't push yourself too hard - I'm sure you have friends who care about you. Maybe I'll even see you around sometime? Just remember to look down! - Charm

Salutations Vibron, safe to assume that Reed treats you kindly when they're with you, no? But I'm wondering how's your relationship with them?

Are you just as close as Reed is with Voxel or are you . . . more distant?

Which of your brothers are the most mischievous?

bell and Beau both seem like they’d be trouble and Ligature is the Oldest Sibling in that he keeps them from causing too much chaos.

or maybe I’m reading em wrong…

[ * You’re reading them exactly right! The twins are always getting into some sort of trouble. Beau loves pranks, and Bell likes more practical tricks. Of course, their favorites tricks are the kind where they can swap places and confuse people. They’re completely identical with their hats on. ]

[ * Ligature is the oldest, and always keeps the three of them in line. He works in first aid, so he’s super serious about not letting things get out of hand. Sharp as a tack, too. He’s like the glue holding their quartet together. ]

[ * …Reed really should go visit soon… He hasn’t been home in a long time… When he meets up with them again, he’ll ask if they’d be up for a few questions. ]

Why is this Mike’s job? Why in the world is any of this Mike’s job?? Battat is out in the wastes outside the studio, ‘checking in on’ what seems to be the dustiest place on earth; between the couch cushions. While he's there, though, he ends up finding something weird...

a.k.a. Local remote gets lost in the couch, and a couple of mics find them.

———

Wrote a short Mike fic! Technically this counts as something for Miketober? But yeah, here’s a little Jongler backstory fic for my beloved cowboy Mike :)

[reeds-rodeo]

[[OOC: Hey, look, that’s me! I wrote a thing! :D Maybe give it a read if you like the Mikes! ]]

[reeds-rodeo]

Did you know that the name Reed actually means red? Kinda.

It is a variant of Reid, which refers to ruddy complexion or red hair

[ * Reed is actually named after a saxophone reed! His whole family unit from the gameshow set is named after different parts of a saxophone, to be more precise. ]

[reeds-rodeo]

Do any of the two mikes who visit understand you?

[ * He’s pretty sure all three understand Shadowsax, but only two of them actually bother to speak with him when they visit. The little green one seems to be actively avoiding him and Voxel. ]

[ * Wait, Reed and Voxel are the ones he’s been complaining about?? *snrk* ]

[acustardduckling]

@reeds-rodeo

Bang bang!*

*No prop guns were fired during this rehearsal.

If this really is a rehearsal - Five and Reed might just be messing around. Those death throes are going to last at LEAST four minutes...

[reeds-rodeo]

[[OOC: OH MY GOODNESS, THIS LOOKS AMAZING!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Good on Clive for being the first person to come to the Western Set prepared! XD Know that Reed is so so happy to have someone to play guns with, he will try very hard not to laugh at Clive’s silly death throes— And don’t apologize, your art looks fantastic as always!! ]]

[*A short figure in a trenchcoat wanders nearby]

[*They bump into several fences before toppling over]

@5cuptainsinatrenchcoat

@5cuptainsinatrenchcoat [ * “Sarsaparilla?? I think some of those lil’ cup guys from down south are here to visit you!” ]

[5cuptainsinatrenchcoat]

Hello good sir! We appear to have gotten lost in our travels- Pray tell, where is this place?

[reeds-rodeo]

[ * (Reed helps right the yellow Cuptain, setting them gently back down on the sand. The Shadowguy honks out a few saxophone notes with a grin and a tip of his hat.) ]

🎷🎶🎶🎵! 🎵🎶! 🎶🎵🎶!

[ * “I’d say you’re precisely where you should be, fellas! This is the Western Set, best place in the whole studio! And I’ve got a friend here who’s been looking for some folks like you!” ]

[5cuptainsinatrenchcoat]

[*The yellow cuptain shakes the sand out of his feather upon being placed back on his feet]

Thanks, sigma!

[*The red cup turns to him]

Yellow, will you translate please?

He's saying we're in the "Western Set", and that he has a friend that's been looking for skibidi sigmas like us

[*The orange cuptain perks up, throwing the red cuptain off balance with a squeak]

Are they? It would be nice to meet them if possible!

[reeds-rodeo]

[ * “Sure, I can take you to meet her! The Soda Fountain is just across the street!” ]

[ * Reed leads the way, taking the five into a saloon just across the way. The whole building smells of root beer and vanilla ice cream. ]

[ * The Mizzle behind the counter lifts her head as the group walks in. ]

[ * Reed steps aside, presenting the group of Cuptains with a flourish and a “ta-da!!” note, before leaning up against the counter. ]
