So I did manage to finish it today! I'm planning on returning to artfight this year, so I got a lot of stuff to work and rework, and I'm starting with bethaby :] (link to her on artfight will be on a reblog just in case)
Also sharing some of the description I wrote for her there:
Bethany is the oldest child of Asgore and Gaster, being born a few years before the barrier broke, and a few months before Gaster got erased from reality, before being brought back post pacifist (it's an AU shared with my good friend @beau-draws-and-cries )
As a kid, she had a lot of energy and couldn't stop for more than a few moments, if something didn't catch her interest. Tried acting older than she was, wanting to be fit to be queen as soon as possible.
And as an adult she's more serious, but still retains some of her goofy side, especially with her younger siblings and friends. She still speaks her mind, just happens that she speaks less often. Her relationship with both Asgore and Gaster got a little shaky, for a lot of reasons, but especially for how much compared she is to her older siblings, both living and dead. It's more complicated than outright hate or dislike.
She's trying to find herself after giving up the idea of following Asgore's footsteps, and so far she's been really into drawing, programming and biology, but no clear idea of her future anymore. An ongoing work in progress.
HCWT is an Undertale au created with @bernardo-reblogs-shit so the characters belong to me and him. It's basically an au full of shipps and fankids/fancharacters
Story status: it's already been written by Bernardo, even though it's kinda outdated
I have a small-ish backlog of drawings to take photos of, from 2022 and 2023, and here are two of those!
This was when me and @beau-draws-and-cries were thinking again about our kingdings AU, and working on rewriting the fanfic we made for it back in 2017. It's still on the early outline stage, but we have been having some good progress! It's very dear for both of us so we want to do it right
I was also playing around with my human designs for Gaster, Asgore and Bethany at the time, during my college classes
Imagine having a baby but not even remembering who the other parent is.
HCWT time!
I’m going to coward’s way and drawing humanized version. And also I will end up being some days behind because oops! Gotta finish a whole animation in 3 days! I used this drawing as a qucik warm up to it but i cant really afford using that time for other stuff anymroe
These four are kingdings fankids me and @bernardo-draws-and-cries have had for a while (as in, Bethany and Lancer exist since 2016, Belle and Aster since 2017). I decided to do some small redesigns for them!
Or for their humanized forms, at least. It’s been 7 years and I don’t feel comfortable in delving on their more canon accurate versions (Bê has them)
They’re part of an au we have together, HCWT, they also appear on other aus that we’ve delved into in the many years of kingdings brainrot we had. But HCWT is their main place. That being said, there is a lot of stuff that is muddy/vague since it’s such an old au that we haven’t touched in a few years, and also we’ve done so many iterations of it that it’s hard to know what is canon now. I’m going to be kinda basing it on the original fanfic we had for it for a lot of the basic stuff. (it was written in portuguese so not super accessible for most people reading this)
More information on them below the read more
They all have font names, I’m still surprised that I managed to find fonts for Bethany and Belle after they were created (Bethany Script and La Belle Aurore respectively)
Also they all appear in different ages in the au(s), these are just the most seen ones. Bethany also is shown a lot when she’s five, and both Belle and Aster when they’re older. Sometimes also they are in different age order and stuff, but I’m just going to talk about the HCWT version on the ages shown here. There’s a lot of old stuff for a lot of the other aus in my artblog that i never shown here, This blog actually was originally an ask blog for an underfell au where only Aster and Belle existed.
- Bethany is the oldest, both in creation order and in universe. Her childhood is a bit of a muddy area since we haven’t touched that part of the au in a while, but for now, she was born a few years before the pacifist ending happens. In HCWT we have her being the next one in line for running human-monster deals after Asgore retires from that, I don’t really see Asriel or Chara being too excited to do that, but she’s pretty up for the task.
(Chara and Asriel are brought back in the au also)
She’s a pretty no nonsense kind of person, but she lets herself be a goof around her sibilings, friends and nibilings/cousins (thats a worm hole im not willing to deal with right now). She also has a best friend called Daniel, not pictured here, and she’s a bit of the voice of reason of the two, but she’s often part of the shenanigans. They end up living together a while after.
Very strong also, took it after Asgore, could lift all her sibilings + Gaster all at once.
- Lancer is a bit funny to share with people after Deltarune released, I’m still a bit shocked at this coincidence. Not a lot of what he does is set in stone, a pretty wild card in this sense. Nice, kind kid, helps a lot on Asgore’s flower shop after school and on weekends. He’s blind and got a guide dog named Jack, which does end up being how he meets his girlfriend Berry, who was working as a volunteer when he went to get Jack. I got a very soft spot for him, he’s just a little guy, sunshine impersonated.
- Belle is a big book worm since small, it came from a way to pass the time when she can’t do much physically demanding things, like Aster does. So she spends a lot of time with Gaster, becoming a bit of an assistant to him as she gets older. And while she does look and act pretty chill most of the time, she is an anger bomb, very short tempered. Scary angry little goat-skele. Years later she begins dating a human named Barbara.
- Aster! My baby boy! Liddle man! I love him so much. He’s a very athletic kid, loves sports, grows up to be a manlet, almost a himbo, but he’s pretty smart. They love each other, but he and Belle are the two most likely to butt heads around the house, being the two most hot headed ones in there. He also begins dating some years down the line, with a spider mosnter named Epaminondas (Epa for short).
This is just the tip of the iceberg of HCWT, there’s a lot more in it, but I wanted to focus on these four lil fellas :] Probably not going to share much more stuff about it, if at all here, but this was fun to revisit!
