ohh my goodness. i've been waiting to send these until requests were open bc i wanted to hear ur thoughts.
might be a little silly, but consider: matching outfits. player gathers clothing materials!! and coordinates outfits one day on missions!!!! even makes props!!! hijinks ensue. idk if this had already been disscussed before, but thank you for your time and consideration, ily. you are so cool <<3333!!!!!!! everything you make is so scrumptious!!!!! <33
Omg, thank you, this is so nice of you!!! :D ❤❤❤❤ I love this art so much, you have no idea - the way you portray the boys here fits so well (as always lol). And the memes too omg!! I can't even put it into words to be honest with you, these are just excellent. I do feel slightly bad for that random grunt though, something tells me they'll be sleeping with one eye open after seeing that lmao.
(Also, thank you so much for the compliments too of course, you're far too kind. (˶⸃ ⴰ⸃˶)♡ I could say the same to you btw; your art is always just *chef's kiss* perfection.)
Anyhow, I've actually thought a bit about this scenario before, but this just inspired me, so I wrote some short hcs for you. Hope you like them! <3:
The Player Matches Outfits with Them ft. The Main 3 + 2BDamned
(TW: Yandere, Obsessive Behavior)
- [2BDAMNED] -
2BDamned knew that you had been working on a little project - one that you tried to keep as secret as possible. He was curious, but not enough to encroach on whatever boundary you set regarding it. All he knew from your rather lackadaisical explanation was that he'd be very surprised when he saw. And, well, he was.
The first conscious thought in 2BDamned's head is the question of how you've managed to make a mask that looks so similar to his without borrowing the original. It's really spot on; the seams are in the exact same place, and even if yours has to have been configured differently to fit your more human facial features, the silhouette is exactly the same.
(In the end, he concludes that you simply must've studied his appearance for a while to truly replicate his mask, which makes him feel almost giddy in a way he might've deemed embarrassing before meeting you. But now he's just overcome with happiness that you were obviously interested enough in him to do this.)
He openly praises your skill in sewing, knowing that grunt clothing is ordinarily much too large for you. And you'd notice how the fondness he holds for you seeps into the words, his gaze lingering on you in a way that left you feeling warm.
If you could see underneath his own mask, you'd be able to see the smile he was unable to bite back as well, and the flush that he'd try to will away otherwise. And while he is incredibly impressed (and happy) at what you've managed to put together, he will mention that you could also borrow his actual things once in a while, if you feel so inclined. He just happens to think one of his own jackets might suit you too.
(Of course, he doesn't miss the chance to lean real close to adjust your mask as he says this either, just to fluster you even more. You really have no idea how cute you are, especially looking like this.)
- [DEIMOS] -
A full minute of unintelligible sputtering leaves Deimos' lips the moment he sees your new outfit, and you laugh at the way his face goes bright red. When you said you had a surprise, this was one of the last things he expected.
Luckily for him, he's able to quickly gather his composure, and his excited ramblings turn into smooth flirts that'll leave you blushing instead of him. Expect all sorts of comments about how cute you looked dressed up like him, and praises about how you look even better in his fit than he does.
He insists on taking a ton of pictures together, and you can bet he keeps his favorite in his wallet. (It's one of your faces smushed together as you both grin at the camera, making a heart with your hands.)
He considers this a total power-couple thing; matching shirts are so low-effort compared to this, if anything it shows you perfect you are together. Although there is one thing he'd help you change from your original DIY version of his outfit - those sheet-metal dog tags you made can't compare to the real thing in his opinion, so why don't you just use one of his instead?
Also, don't think he won't take advantage of the fact that you both are the only ones with headsets. Even if yours isn't functioning (because let's be honest, finding one in working condition would be difficult), he'll fix it up quickly just so he can talk more directly to you during missions. And whenever else he wants to, to the irritation of the other three.
- [SANFORD] -
Sanford would consider his outfit to be fairly standard, but he recognized that you were emulating him the moment you slid the sunglasses on. And he couldn't stop the goofy smile from splitting his face when he realized it either, not even attempting to hide his amusement at what you've done.
(He only gets visibly happier when you 'threateningly' brandish your wire hook in his direction. You really put a lot of thought into this, didn't you?)
While Sanford has the amount of restraint in him to not openly brag about you doing this, he can't deny the rush of satisfaction he gets from seeing you in what is an unmistakable homage to him. If you look closely, you'll see him straighten up in pride whenever you come into view. (It's almost like preening, really. If he weren't so flushed, perhaps you'd think it to be more of an ego thing, but no.)
Although, he does show a little bit more concern about some aspects of your outfit. Like your boots, for example; he can't count the number of times he's gotten blisters while breaking in his own, so you should expect him to ask you if you need any plasters (or help bandaging yourself as well).
(If you decide to accept his offer, you'll find yourself questioning whether he ever officially trained as a medic before. He surely has the gentleness befitting of one, shown in how he carefully cleans your wounds and softly applies the ointment, his calloused fingers gently smoothing over the plasters on your Achilles heels afterward. Although you have the slightest suspicion that this tenderness from him is known only to you.)
Sanford will also make it part of his routine to pluck your glasses from your nose and clean them after he does his own. Afterward, he'll slowly lean in when he places them back on you to make sure he doesn't poke you in the eye. Neither of you mention that you could do it yourself, or that his decision to slide them back onto the bridge of your nose himself was highly unnecessary. Maybe he just does it to get a better look at the way you blink up at him and blush, or perhaps it's for some other reason, who's to say? Either way, you have no complaints.
- [HANK J. WIMBLETON] -
Your laughs are muffled under Hank's hands as he cups your face, tilting it up to look closely at you. His excitement at your new look is almost palpable; you can easily tell from how he's shaking and hurriedly looking over, his gaze never stopping on one spot for longer than a second. He just wants to take in everything about your new look, is all.
He'll almost insist on doing a mission with you wearing it, not only because the idea sounds fun to him (with his love of carnage and all), but also because it provides an excellent opportunity to rub in everyone else's faces that you chose to copy his outfit. Not theirs.
In a way, he also becomes just a tad more doting than usual. He busies himself with dusting you off, and adjusting your goggles and the lapels of your coat whenever another skirmish is finished. It's his way of checking you over and making sure your hard work wasn't damaged either.
(Plus, he'd hate it if this instance of you copying him was cut short because of some worthless grunts' attempts at harming you.)
You'll catch him sticking closer to you than usual too, and he does so for multiple reasons. First is that he just prefers to be near you whenever he can anyway (the warmth of your presence is one of his favorite things, and it gives ample opportunity to show off around you), but now there's also the fact that your outfit will freak out your enemies. As you can imagine, he enjoys that immensely, and what better way to improve this experience than to have his Player join him?
In a way, Hank also sees this as a sort of 'claim' you've put on yourself too. Wearing your significant other's clothing is kind of a thing with some grunts, and while he knows they aren't really his clothes, there's still some of that same sentiment there that makes him purr just a bit louder whenever he sees you in that new outfit of yours. It tells the world you're his in some way, even if not officially. So why wouldn't he be happy about that?
hiii its been awhile <33 have some sillies that are horrifically anatomically incorrect. hope everythings going okay <3333
Ah yes, the gift of memes, definitely one of my favorites. <3333 As always, these are fantastic. I really love how you draw their clawed hands, it's a little detail that always gets me for some reason haha.
Plus, I really like your design for Doc as well; there's typically a lot of variety in that field, but yours is definitely one of my favorites. (And the meme for him is oddly in character for the AU lmao.) Thank you for sending these to me! :)
hii i hope things havent been too stressful for you <33 ily and you deserve good things so here are some silly little player doodles i made :D (also pls ignore the other ask i. totally didnt. forget sanfos tattoo. and didnt just realize until now;;)
OMG MORE MEMES! These are just what I needed, thank you! :) Idk how you do it, but you're renditions of these are perfect every time lol; the facial expressions, the linework and coloring, and the designs never miss the mark. I also love the inclusion of Wank with this one (though let's hope there isn't too much collateral damage 0.1 seconds after that photo is taken haha). I just love these. :D ❤️💖💗💕
Oh, and another note, I meant to post this a few days ago, but I had to finish up things at Uni, which meant working on that for a few nights. 😅 On the bright side, I am finally completely finished with it! I can do whatever I want now, so I'm very happy. Expect more posts after today, cause I have quite a lot I want to address. :)
back at it again w memes that are a little too similar to the ones i made last time :,))
Ayyy, more memes, I love it! I really like how you did everyone's expressions here, they're absolutely perfect. The "SQ is my best friend" is now my favorite version of that meme, but I honestly can't choose a single one of these that I like the most. They're all that good lmao. (I do appreciate the addition of claws with Jeb too, nice detail.) These are hilarious, and I really love your art style. Thank you so much! :D ❤️💕💖💗💝
heyy salty!! hope things are ok w you and ur fam <33 i wanted to send this in sooner but, it took longer than i expected to make it;; it isn’t new years for me yet, so heres a doodle of every player thats been on the blog so far!! i might have missed a few but i tried to get all of them. ive been following you for a long time, and it took a bit it for me to build up the courage to send in stuff but it was really worth it :)) i love everything you make and seeing you progress and rise in popularity is really heartwarming. i cant wait to see what else you can do next year!!! lots of love and happy new years!! <3333 :DD
Yooo! This is an amazing piece of artwork, I absolutely adore it. I can remember when all these Players were first "debuted" too; it takes me straight back to when I posted the art I received for them haha. This is just such an excellent representation of all of them! Everything in their designs and expressions is so very accurate, it's almost unbelievable. It's kinda like a "wrap-up" for the Player's many appearances lol. Thank you so much for this, this is definitely one of my all-time favorite pieces now. :D
Also, I am very happy you found it worth it to send stuff to my inbox as well; you really didn't have to, but I've always been elated to receive any memes and such from you. It just brightens my day every time. :) I'm also glad you've enjoyed my writing and it's progress too; followers like you are the main reason I have the drive to come back to this time and time again, so I have you to thank for motivating me to write as well. Happy New Year!!! ( ´ ∀ `)ノ~ ♡🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉
(P.S. The fam is doing great and so am I, I've been visiting them all and everyone's super happy cause we all have free time around the holidays for once lmao. This did immensely improve my day though too so thanks again! ❤❤❤❤)
i dont usually send stuff to ppl, but some old doodles have been rotting in my folders and i thought id send a few in bc i absolutely love ur work, ur such a talented writer<33 ily
Aww dude, you flatter me, thank you. :) I'm happy you love my works so much, and that they've inspired you to doodle some things, they're both very high compliments. (And ily too haha.) ❤❤❤❤
These are all excellent, btw. I never tire of meme content about the AU, so these are absolutely perfect. I also really like the way you drew the Auditor in the first image, the smoky effect on his shoulders and head really add to the whole thing nicely. And don't even get me started on the tiny Deimos in the Player's hands; I just adore how Dei looks and I am extremely impressed by the way you've drawn the hands. I'm just amazed. Thank you. ❤️💕♥️💗
hii :))) sprinkles these into ur inbox <33 got inspired by recent asks lol
DJSAF Ofmg more well-drawn memes?!? You spoil me. 😄 These are fantastic; Idk how to put it, but you chose really great memes for everyone, it's very in character lmao. I've actually seen the original picture for the first one before and thought "hmm Sanfo 🤔", so you legit read my mind with that.
The thought of Deimos having that conversation with the Player is also incredibly believable tbh, I can fully imagine that happening (because they have a bit of a tendency to go off the deep end whenever you give them anything to think about). Plus, that pic with Phobos and Jeb just encapsulates Jeb's general feelings about his Director's obsession with you so well. The sheer blasphemy the man shows towards you genuinely disgusts him, so of course he'd deem himself your protector from the Director as well.
Seriously though; I love these so much, thank you!! :) ❤️💕💗♥ I just love the way you draw people, they're very "friend shaped" in your art style.
