an ashlynn and bunny webisode would've been so fun. pair the two girls who are late to everything together and they enable each other to the point that they're friends have already thrown search parties when they finally decide to show up. they're friends are one more 'sorry im late' away from putting a tracking charm on both of them so they don't have to wonder if they're both still in the castle or have been taken away in a kidnapping.
bunny, who went to the wonderland school of having class once a year deciding that since she's already half an hour late to her first class that she might as well skip the rest of the day: thirty minutes is too late. we shouldn't even come in anymore.
ashlynn, who's been a rule follower all her life and having acquired a taste of rebellion after deciding to defy her destiny: i think it would be an insult to our professor and our classmates if we came into class honestly. we should just skip.
hunter and alistair who now have to give their presentations by themselves since both of their partners overslept and decide to ditch: đ§ââď¸đ§ââď¸
Some more art done for the DnD game Iâm running, and some Spiral Knights fanart as well.
The party got to go to the village of Emberlight, and got to meet some of the gremlins who live there, so I wanted to do some art for them.
First is my own gremlin OC, Ashter. I havenât drawn here in a while, so I wanted to revisit her here.
Second is Groat, the poor gremlin baker who has to deal with being controlled by the âDread Velvetâ cake enemy.
And last, is Gracken. The original sketch was done by @noc-loft, so I wanted to add on some color for the fun of it.
(I actually have some head-canon thoughts on Gracken, but thatâs something for another time.)
Kitâs Lance and @knoggartâs (AU) Suno
AlexSethâs Seth and Kitâs Ashter
Indigoedâs Julien and Kayleighâs (AU) Everly
@slothberryshortcakeâs Ellie and my Malcolm! :]
I recently watched Hazbin Hotel! And I loved it lot of talent went into making this pilot! So I drew Angel Dust with Ashter. I cant tell whether they'll be good buddies or fuck buddies! Lol enjoy!~ đ
What hurts me in this scene is that Ash doesnât blame Shorter for all thatâs happened. Instead, Ash blames himself. He blames himself for being too occupied with the whole Banana Fish mess to not notice how off and shifty Shorter has been acting lately. Instead of antagonizing Shorter, Ash looks for reasons why Shorter did what he did. His conclusion was that Shorter betrayed them in order to protect his sister in New York. Ash understands Shorter, heâd probably do the same thing himself to protect those he cares about. Ash doesnât blame Shorter for the betrayal, he blame Lee Wang-lung for forcing Shorter to do this. And I think thatâs beautiful (ŕŽďšŕŽ`･)
Honestly the fact that I could find literally zero content for this ship made me really sad. I get that Asheiji will always be superior with heavy scenes in the anime (and possibly ending up canon??) and thatâs all good but please consider... Ashter. And yes I made the ship name because since I seem to be the only one who ships this, I make all the rules.
But like, this ship has so much potential?? Give me the childhood romance. Give me pining Shorter. Give me a Shorter who after realizing his feelings vows to keep them to himself. Give me Shorter who chooses to do so because he knows what Ash has been through. A Shorter who isnât scared of not getting his feelings reciprocated, but who is terrified of Ash looking at him and seeing him in the same light as them.Terrified of Ash suddenly becoming scared and distrustful of Shorter. He couldnât bear that. So he keeps his feelings a secret. For months, for years. He sees Ash grow as a person and as a leader. Sees him at his highest and his lowest and is right there with him through every step of the way, all the while keeping his mouth shut.
Imagine that it continues like that until Eiji and Ibe come to America. It is Eiji who notices the way Shorter looks at Ash when he is sure that Ash is too busy to be paying attention to him. And it is Eiji who is the first one to confront him about it. They talk, and for the first time, Shorter lets himself pour out all his insecurities and reasons why he stayed silent for so long. Eiji isnât even sure how to answer that, let alone how he could help, but he knows that he has to do something. He tries to fish out of Ash how he feels about relationships and tries to subtly break out to him that Shorter might have a crush on him. Ash, who never even considered a possibility of that, is more confused than anything by Eijiâs ministrations. Nevertheless, it stays in the back of his mind. He becomes more attentive of Shorter, slowly starting to notice the little things. Like the way Shorter would sometimes gaze at him intently when he was busy doing something only for him to jolt himself from his trance, shaking his head and redirecting his attention somewhere else. He noticed the way Shorter seemed more tense after moments like these. Suddenly the thought of Shorter having feelings for him seemed much more plausible, so Ash decides to confront him about it.
They would painfully talk it out and with a bit more dramatics, in the end, Ash would return Shorterâs feelings because, you know, Iâm a sucker for happy endings and I would also protect Shorter with my life, so nothing bad can happen to him.Â
Damn, I didnât mean for this to turn into a whole detailed scenario, but this was what was running around in my head as I drew this piece so I needed to let it out. Since it got so long, Iâll put it under the cut.
