Day 11 - Code

Again! I do these when I want to, how I want to, muahahhahahha.

I've had this drawn for a while but forgot about it while I was sick! Sorry yall! I was gonna schedule this for later but I'll be posting it now in the name of wanting to show my friend (and mobile tumblr being confusing)

I have a lot more versions below the cut! And a bit of poetry about it that I surprisingly did it one go. Genuinely I believe this piece started my art block, because I tried to work on arguably more important things and couldn't manage to get anything to look right, and felt like I needed to finish this one. Now that this is done I will do artfight and said important things, gah!! I couldn't figure out how I liked the lighting so made a bunch of versions (you should know that's just how I roll atp.

Also! I haven't posted because of work and the 4th, sorry! Oh well. Also I should be doing af but unless anyone attacks me I may be lazy asf.

Lots and lots of lore rambling/story details, a good amount of poetry, alternate versions of the piece that I also like, and close ups below the cut!

a lot a lot a lot beneath the cut

Lore time uhm...

He is Malhare in this Au! Used to call him Glitchtrap but lowkey sick of the -trap curse, so I changed it. The little group of people following him have different names depending. This most likely won't be explained in the story but meh. Basic explanation:

His 'Hares' - Closest and most willing followers, ones that both follow his orders and allow him to control them.

'Rabbits' - Either unwilling(Reluctant muahha) or unaware followers, like Vanessa. They're some of the easiest or hardest to deal with, as they can outright sabotage his efforts, or will give in without a fight. Some examples will be seen in "Wishes of the Mockingbird." This will expand on the depths of the cult-ish-thing that is the following of the Hare.

'Bunnies' - Either new or intensely strong minded, ones he doesn't have much hold on and therefore only work as its eyes and ears to the world. Many people don't know that they're literally possessed besides a whisper in their ear telling them things. He can't do a lot with these ones.

Why is it so over-the-top with the naming stuff? Dude's copying WILLIAM "PURPLE GUY" AFTON. The BIGGEST theater kid murderer in the whole world. He's all dramatic all the time and just BLAH BLAH BLAH scary scary. The main thing different (I'm debating about keeping this detail) is that it's not as into research, moreso just doing what William can't. Each version of the mimic copies what it knows.

anywho that's what I've got.

Debating about this detail, but I saw this story someone wrote about Glitchtrap when I was younger, it was a comic (I condemn and despise BillyBubone, but it was drawn by him for the most part), in which Vanessa would have had near-supernatural abilities when possessed/controlled by GT, and I very much do like that idea. She has to go into this deal with him through the story/a near parasitic relationship. I do like those details in and of itself and I think I may incorporate parts. Like "I fucking hate you but I'm about to die and I can't get out of this on my own, and if I die then I'm going to be unable to stop you." and GT, based on William still, is more than willing to have even the slightest bit of power over her. The whole story he's hyperfixated on these difficult 'Rabbits', defying his wishes, and needing to conquer them. Part through the story Vanessa meets another like her and they learn how to shut him out bit by bit. There's a lot to it.

Augh I love this story. I think I'll let Vanessa or maybe someone else be evil for a time. I just love those irredeemable characters who give into the manipulation, and not out of ignorance or being naïve, but purely because they're selfish and want to blame their 'letting loose of their hatred' on someone else.

Problem is I really like both versions of both bad and good Vanessa, so I may have to make an OC. I know I know, excessive ocs in an au aren't exactly my thing either, but for the sake of the story and the fact that it's MY AU I can do what I want.

"You forced me into this, I had no say!" meanwhile they could've made it stop at any time.

Anyway blah blah blah, I may draw our little crazies within the Burrow. Burrow being the wip name for the cult people. Do hares burrow? I may have to look that up.

Also I made him specifically different as a hare, because Hares ARE different than rabbits. I'm obsessed with the idea that Malhare is a hare because he doesn't have the sweet look of innocence atop his sin, like William did. I like to think William lies to himself to make it look like he's in the right. But Malhare knows what it is, and he relishes in it. I know I shouldn't make characters that are evil for the sake of being evil, but I promise there's (probably) a reason!!! I remember seeing lore in SOTM that Edwin had beaten and denounced the Mimic (reason for GT's tears, which I did keep in the Malhare design), and I think I may keep some of the bits of that. I ofc have to rework some of the lore around SOTM, but once I'm done incorporating piece of SOTM in the lore I am DOOONE with altering key lore.

I aaallso did add another color to the Malhare design, being that Green right there. I know the purple represents William/The aftons, and the Green is supposed to represent the Emilys(Emelies? spelling geeez) (at least in this story, and the Schmidts/mostly just when they separate from William, are represented by blue), but I needed to add the Green to add that eerie element, and show that the one thing Vanessa had separating her/her family line from William (she's the grand daughter or daughter (still in debate) of Michael), at least in the story, is something William (at least the copy of him) now has. Idk! I don't know how much Vanessa will know about her family line, how much her siblings will, how many siblings she HAS (I know she has a sister or brother, who is one of Gregory's parents), or much about her family at all. Oopsie! Welp. Time for me to get to work (And I by that I mean doing things that actually matter).

Sorry for yapping so hard, gah! I really really really like Vanessa. Even better when more story details are added muahahha.

SOME POETRY I MADE!

I really really really liked how it sounded, and it's supposed to be like one of those "Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar" type beats, idkkkk how to describe it. It's got rhythm and a bit of subpar storytelling, hope you like it! It's about the Malhare and his grip on Vanessa, and how she really won't listen.

Watch your mouth, little one Lest it go away Keep in step, it's begun Time for us to play When my words grace your ears Listen without a pause I'm with you, have no fears And wait for the applause Tick tok goes the clock Counting down your days Tick tok, it will stop At my final say A show of my direction An actor on my stage Story, my creation The one turning the page In the dark and in the light My gaze will be on you You will never leave my sight Your actions in my view Tick tok count the seconds Slipping far away Tick tok, now I beckon For your new display No words unheard, no secrets kept Give in to my demands If you would only just accept-- You're ruining my plans Little rabbit, unwilling soul Defiance in your eyes Your cries ignored, your wishes null You will be my disguise Tick tok goes the clock Counting down your days Tick tok, it will stop At my final say

Note for this first one below! I actually did not mean to press burn on that layer but I loved how it made his eyes look like augh I loved it so much. So it's a version now.

I just messed around and it changed the vibe so drastically each time that I couldn't make a freaking choice. So take them all!!!
