this was done over the course of three months (March-May) and im so proud of it!! it turned out really nice :D
characters, from bottom middle and going clockwise: Tethered to Clarity x2 (once on a screen); Eternal Nocturne; Solemn Renewal, Tethered to Clarity (latter on a screen); One Less Paradox; Jaded Splendor; Shifting Like Shades; Six Petals (and also a little creature called a Glider); Lingering Trepidation
perceive the rainworlders part 2: electric boogaloo
local group STARBOUND! they do not have a lineup yet but who needs a lineup when you have a very cool group drawing?
unlike my previous post im just gonna slap everyone’s ref sheets down i guess. they do all have Artfight thumbnails now but i realized separating them all would be too annoying so im not posting those. also don’t expect individual oc posts like i was planning before that’s most likely not happening
CONTENT WARNINGS: depictions of abuse, extremely unhealthy (+ complicated) relationship dynamics, death, weird identity stuff, coping mechanisms of varying quality and healthiness. seriously clarity is not a good person at all.
firstly, our lovely (/s) senior Tethered to Clarity
he may have reasons for his behavior but they are not good reasons and even then that wouldn’t excuse the shit he does
secondly, our nostalgia-blinded second eldest One Less Paradox
things would’ve gone a lot better if they’d been senior, probably.
thirdly, the late Shifting Like Shades and their successor Solemn Renewal
renewal’s the actual youngest but they share a ref sheet since their designs are virtually identical
fourth, the therapist friend (even though he really shouldn’t be) Eternal Nocturne
their disability doesn’t define them but clarity doesn’t always see it that way. it sure is disabling though.
fifth, i don’t really have an intro line right now that wouldn’t just be mean to say about Six Petals :(
if she doesn’t talk clarity won’t remember she’s there, right?
sixth, the sad wet cat of an iterator who has definitely done bad things too, Lingering Trepidation
maybe he’s just upset because we’re not being good enough?
last but definitely not least because he would brain blast anyone who would say that, Jaded Splendor
okay but like what if clarity just mysteriously died. wouldn’t that be really nice.
obligatory for the love of all things good please don’t emulate any of them they are so fucking unhealthy.
no perfect victims allowed in this household if any of them make you uncomfortable i probably did something right unless i did something horribly wrong i guess (they don’t deserve to be abused obviously im referring to their behavior in general)
