I appreciate that your first post after a month was randomly deciding to xvials post thank you that’s very based (this is referring to that ink and Xgaster edit mod Maxy posted)
wait I never answered this lmao. It didn't even occur to me that it was xvails haha. I knew I was changing nm into ink I just needed someone really really tall to splay across his lap.
[erm also to avoid confusion and also offense, I [mod maxy] am the owner of @contamination-zone, I "fixed" my own drawing after I finished it in call with mod kippy. just for a good laugh.]
made that drawing after making this ☝️ height shart right here.
thought to myself how absurd it was that nightmare has so many designs to himself alone.
I don't think I know other characters that have this many drastic changes done to them just in the span of their plotline. like y'know, sometimes characters do change from certain events, maybe get injuries, different clothes or haircut, or go through arcs that change their personality.
but nightmare here literally changes to entirely different characters as the plot goes on, design wise and personality wise.
and it's super fitting for him, cuz he's the one character that puts the theme of identity on the forefront. he spends his entire life searching for what it means to be 'nightmare', so he goes through a thousand different identities to find the one that truly defines him. but at his core, he's still the same nightmare he's ever been.
even after becoming king and becoming everything he thinks he ever wanted to be (rich, powerful, ect.), he's still unhappy with himself because he spent all this time rejecting his actual true self in favor of being somebody that wasn't (and could never be) him.
what truly defines nightmare is that he is bound to no limitation on what he could be, but still choses to put those limitations on himself.
what truly defines nightmare is nothing, and being nothing scares him to death, so he would rather be everybody else but himself, not once considering that maybe he could've changed that nothing into anything he wants, but fear just blinds him that much.
the irony of it all is that all he truly wanted at the end of the day was to be his own person, to be someone outside of sans's shadow, but only ended up jumping from sans's shadow to mettaton's. the only way he found to not be a clone of sans was to become a clone of someone else.
damn... maybe the true nightmare was the friends we made along the way.
Ever since I liked your happy 1999 post the only thing that's been on my feed is gay undertale sans artwork and I don't know how to fix it back to normal
this could be the funniest ask we've ever gotten. anon, my heart goes out to you , but other than throwing it all away, I have no advice for you. happy 1999
what dream does not know is that ink is singlehandedly preventing the heat death of the multiverse by convincing the code that year 2000 never happened
