i love how that happened partly because of that but also i feel the trick to a good darkner design (for a "humanoid" one at least) there's a visual motif of darker faces. could it be a coincidence? probably. most likely.
but the idea is that the eyes are obscured OR they have a shadow face.
ain't nobody got normal white scalea eyes here!!! (excluding the shadow faces.)
Ralsei seems more, idk, lightner like in his second form. i don't count him.
anotehr detail, and again it could be a coincidence, is they have black on their design. (or dark enough to substitute as black, as in Rouxls Kaard's case.)
see they... blend in a little bit. ._. not a lot. i think it's my reluctance to use straight black outlines that help them stand out too much. and Forget-me-not King is a bit too detailed.
but past that! they kinda fit, design wise at least
Hey so like, remember the dark arc from like, a year ago? and i canned it so i never uploaded it? well, the ending was done on stream and i got real close to the ending, it was going to have a music video/video game to finish it off but it never came to fruition.
anyway its about time i take some time to upload the sketches and what part of the animation was done, and write down what would of happened.
under the cut there’s gonna be a million images lmao
god.... if tumblr mobile doesn’t put this under a readmore i think i would literally die and oombust
CW: knives, talk of stabbing (for magic reasons, not for violence. kris isn’t going to be hurt) threats of actual violence (empty talk), one panel has chara face shift like flowey to be scary.
Each picture is accompanied by a description for the visual impaired.
2 Panels:
Chara grabs Kris’ shoulder. They are facing away, unbothered. There’s Feylow 2.0, in monster-skull form behind the two of them. Chara says “Kris?” next panel, Chara looks down, saddened. “Oh, right. You’re possessed.”
1 Panel:
We get a shot of Kris against a solid black background. They stand stiffly. Red Text reads Badum, badum, badum, a heart beat.
1 Panel:
A close up of Kris’ face, shadowed harshly.
1 Panel:
A medium shot of Kris, reaching for their soul, face concentrating.
1 Panel:
Kris grabs their soul, a solid red background and kris is shadowed darkly against the red of the soul. They grimace in pain.
1 Panel:
Back to reality. They turn back to Chara, a determined expression on their face. Chara looks confused. Kris yells “Chara! Stab me!” in blue text.
1 Panel:
Chara looks disgruntled, beyond confused. Kris still looks sternly at them head on.
1 Panel:
Chara throws their hands up in the air. “NO!” they shout, Kris rolls their eyes, anoyed and groans at the reaction.
3 Panels:
Dobatsgetcavitites, one of the stream commentors says the following:
Chara has holy magic. If they stab kris in teh heart, we and the knight will be relinquish control.
Chara consdiers this, humming in thought as they rub their chin. They then become more casual, saying “yeah, okay.” Chara pulls out a magic made knife with an audible shing! “That’ll work!” They declare.
1 Panel:
Frisk is face palming. Lancer is unfazed. Chara readies to stab Kris, who has googly eyes and is panicked. Susie rushes to stop Chara. “Wait, STOP!” she shouts.
1 Panel:
“Yeah by KILLING THEM!” She states, against Chara’s logic. She’s covered in dark ooze from when she attacked Kris and the Knight.
1 Panel:
Chara raises an eyebrow, cocky. “Aw, is the baby scared of a lil of a little stabbing?” They ask, still holding the knife in stabbing postion.
1 Panel:
Chara mocks Susie by pretending to be surprised and concerned. “But oh,” they continue, “You were so fine with axing the Knight before!”
1 Panel:
Chara’s face contorts into a scary face, black eyes oozing and mouth unnaturally large. They point their knife inward in a threatening gesture. “I should GUT you,” they state, “You little hypocritical swine.”
1 Panel:
Frisk signs “no,” at Chara who rulls their eyes and goes “tch” in annoyance. Kris breathes a sigh of relief, comically wide eyed.
2 Panels:
A Fan of All Trades, another stream commenter commands kris: Apologize to Feylow, group hug and say goodbye. Pray for a safe return.
Kris goes up to Feylow, laying their forehead against the beast who accepts the comfort. “Apologies,” kris states in red text.
(NOTE: originally there was going to be an added scene to give Feylow more depth as a confused betrayed beast. Feylow would of whine and beg for mercy, Kris would comfort them and tell them it’s almost over.)
2 Panels:
Kris then goes up to Frisk, Chara and Lancer, arms out wide. Feylow is pacified, ready for sleep. “Hug.” Kris states again in red rext. They go over to Chara, pulling them in a hug. Frisk gets excited, Lancer hugs Kris in return.
1 Panel:
Frisk joins the group hug, squishing Chara who is now sandwiched in the middle. Kris and Chara seem surprised as well.
1 Panel:
Frisk is so happy at hugging their new friend and Chara. Chara is squished, uncomfortable and barely tolerating it. Kris is awkwardly smiling, also squished. They say “thanks” in blue text.
1 Panel:
Kris rolls their eyes playfully and Chara gets demonic again. Chara threatens with: “Let go or I’ll stab you all.” Kris interupts, sweating anxiously with their hand up. “But you’re going to anyway.” (again in blue text.)
2 Panels:
Kris goes back under control and in red text. They become stiff. “Pray for a safe return” they state before going slack, falling to the ground.
1 Panel:
AfanofTrades says: Oh, I have an idea to make this easier. Kris, go to sleep.
Dobatsgetscavities says: Sweet dreams honey.
Kris is now asleep against Feylow who is unbothered. Lancer is confused, tongue sticking out idly. Chara and Frisk stand to the right, cut off by the framing of the panel. Chara holds a red knife.
2 Panels: Frisk looks at Chara, unsure about all of this. Char looks down, saddened and unsure too. Chara then transforms their knife into their Holy Spear from earlier in the Darkworld Arc, when they had their cherub form. It’s a long spear with a red heart attached between the blade and wood. Frisk is now REALLY concerned over this change.

That’s it for now. these take like, idk, 3 hours or so to convert into this format? Tho, maybe that’s cause i had to set up the big webtoons pages first. Probably won’t take as long next time i do this. I want to shoot for once a week or more, but no promises.
