Yellow

Character notes/Design notes under cut

Name: Dawson Yellow Gribbleston

Nickname: Yellow

Species: Poppet

Age: 38(?)

Other Notes

young ver is a producer's kid who got stuck in a television show, older ver is a normal school student

literally the softest of the trio

Design Notes

Name: Yellow's overalls have D and "Dawson" sounds like "the son". Gribbleston is apparently Roy's surname from this

Species: Poppets are essentially the plain old humans of this world, only they're in a cloth-world and are thus a cloth-people. Still partially made of meat though.

Age: He can't remember. Dying a lot and being resurrected tends to do that. He ages rather slowly due to the lessons, but he does age.

Hair: It was styled to stick up during the program and became semi-permanent, but it normally flops down like normal hair.

Older ver: Since he can age, I figured I'd try my hand at an older Yellow. Wears suspenders because overalls seemed a bit childish, but still wears black shoes and has a monogrammed pocket.

DUCK

Character notes/Design notes under cut

Name: Robin Drake Crowley

Nickname: Duck

Species: Fae-kin (Ornithean)

Age: older than he looks

Other Notes:

used to be a teacher/professor

all the sass and anger issues

tends to stay in humanoid form to be taken seriously and because bird faces are HARD to draw

Design Notes:

Name: I smushed all the common fan names for the duck together. A drake is a male duck btw.

Species: Fae-kin are a species said to either be descended or blessed by nature. They can shift into a more animal-like form. Duck is an Ornithian or birdlike Fae-kin.

Age: He is an adult, yes he is older than he looks, do not ask, he will take offense.

Eye: He lost his right eye to Tony's lesson. In this au, Sketch actually gave him a new eye to replace it.

triangle nose and neck warmer to simulate beak

eyebags for days

RED

Character notes/Design notes under cut.

Name: D- Angell

Nickname: Red

Species: Cloth-cthulhu

Age: ???

Other Notes:

smokes when under extreme stress

does art comissions now and then, more for practice than a need of money

tired

just wanted to make an educational show for children

Design Notes:

This AU's takes very, very loose inspiration from the Cthulhu Mythos. Most of it is present in Red.

Name: D- comes from the part in DHMIS 4 where Colin cuts him off, what the full thing is nobody knows, Angell is a surname of a character from The Call of Cthulhu and just sounds cool.

Species: Cloth-cthulhu are a sentient, sapient species given to the inhabitants of my dhmis au's world in exchange for their souls. They are diligent, level-headed workers of great strength and intelligence with few hobbies and interests. Red and his creativity is an outlier in that regard.

Age: Cloth-cthulhus are very long-lived, but not immortal. They typically die after a couple centuries, but none of them can be bothered to count, not even Red, so he could be anywhere from 30 to 300.

Void faced thing: Emotions make cloth-cthulhus unstable and allow the cthulhu essence in them to leak out. Most never experience this because they are perfectly content doing mindless work and their few hobbies. Red, once again, is an outlier.

He wears his coat like 80% of the time in my AU because I need some variety in his palette.

There's apparently a boss called the Eye of Cthulhu in Terraria. I don't play the game but the eye colors are neat and hey, it's the color of his friends. Guess they're the apples of his eye or something sappy like that.

PPTS AU

TW/CW : nothing sexual, but also not for kids! smoking, blood, gore, death, and deals with deities of questionable benevolence.

So what is DHMIS: PPTS AU? It sounds like a horrible random amalgam of letters.

Well, it stands for Don't Hug Me I'm Scared: Pedagogue of Particular Teachers and Students AU.

Yes I named it so it would be pronounced like "Puppets AU."  The spelled-out thing is quite a mouthful isn't it?

PPTS is an alternate universe I made up wherein all the puppets are humanoids, the teachers are humanoid embodiments of concepts (gods?) that were trapped in little object bodies during the happening of the DHMIS videos due to Roy's Machine.

There are no romantic ships in this au.

This started as animation memes viewable in YouTube through my channel which goes by the name of Yulogica. I have sone art of it on this blog and very little art of it viewable in Deviant Art under YunaSRL.

I suppose these posts are my attempt to expound upon it without dying from the pain of additional animations. This also sort of exists for me to catalogue things myself, but some others may enjoy it as well, so here you go.
