Encoded Prompts: Wednesday - A Welcomed Guest

You can find my Encoded AU on Fanfiction or AO3 ---- OMG, I freaking LOVE this one! It turned out so amazing and the colors were fun to work with. So many neutrals with accents and as always, the gold trim in their outfits is just way too much fun for me to work with. It took all my will to not give Jewel a black coat because normally that would be what she would wear but there was too much black on black so I went with an inverted color scheme from normal. Kept purple because Goldie was the one who picked out the jacket. He's still not thrilled she won't stray from the jeans, not even to slacks or at least something that accents her hips more, but he's working on it. One of these days he will get her into something more sexy and less casual. I love the shading, I love the line art... just... ugh! Why is LustGold my freaking muse, damn it? Not even my own AU, but damn it, I just love these characters, they make me wanna do more and they always turn out the best. ---- So, basically, the scene is when Jewel gets to go back to LustGold after a bit of time catching up with her other friends. She likes to visit them casually, kind of dropping by. She always brings gifts, which she's alluding to in the image. That "wait a moment" kind of deal, teasing them. Since they don't know any other humans, she likes to bring them stuff they wouldn't normally be able to get. Goldie, being a nerd and a rock collector, gets a lot of stuff made of the crystals her soul produces, especially in purple and blue. She's even made him a light-up Batman statue out of the stuff, since he's a bit of a nerd like her. Just a bunch of friends hanging out when they all have a moment.

Encoded Prompts: Saturday - Abandonment

There's nothing worse than being abandoned by the father of a child. Except maybe if the child isn't yours. Especially if the child is chronically ill and may not make it through the first few months of their life. That's what's going on here. Now, before anyone says anything about baby Goth, his parents DID NOT abandon him. Jewel was adopted by Reaper years before most of the  multiverse existed. As you know, he's a very busy man, and he's been taking more work with Raps (Reaper Papyrus) watching Goth. So before PJ came around, Jewel offered to watch her little brother. Reaper was the one who found Paperjam and Jewel has been the one to take care of him. She didn't stop watching Goth because it was better for everyone, except maybe her once PJ's health concerns became apparent. But she never told anyone. Geno's constantly fatigued and Reaper's so busy. She often lets Goth stay with her for long hours so they could have some time alone together. And Goth is a very easy baby. All he wants to do is cuddle. So long as he's touching you, he's happy. He'll sit at her leg on the floor while she's fretting over PJ. And he loves his sissy. He's very worried about her, but he can't talk yet. He sees her so sad and all he wants to do is make her smile. Paperjam's health condition comes from the fact the determination that created him from the ink and strings of his fathers is dangerously low. He can't hold himself together. He had to use the determination he had while forming to escape the world he was in as Error destroyed it. He was found not long after by Reaper who called Jewel. They thought the poor thing just had a cold from exposure, but Jewel quickly figured out what was going on. Her empathy, purity aura, and healing magic are all that's helping this poor baby stay together. She's feeding the kid determination as much as she can. Her purity aura increases the baby's stats and her healing magic cures fatigue and temporarily settles his stomach to get some food. But he can't eat a lot at a time, and a hungry baby screams. Even more when they're sick. So the only time she gets any peace is the few minutes that PJ passes out. Goth gets all his cuddles in, but the poor baby is constantly vomiting up ink, spit up, and falling apart. Jewel has seen the strings that make up his structure more times than she cares to count and it terrifies her. As seen in the last one, Error just straight up ignores Paperjam's existence. Ink tries, but he's so easily distracted by other goings on in the multiverse, various projects, etc. He doesn't see Jewel's fatigue because emotionally, she's drained too, so he can't feel as much with her either. He at least provides things for her. Diapers, formula, bottles, clothes for her and the baby, anything she asks him for. He's even tried helping stabilize PJ's form but he can't keep it stable with his powers because PJ's not his conscious creation. PJ's determination is what is lacking. But the fact is, Jewel's left alone. Error has even banned her from the anti-void while she has PJ so she's living in this small house that Ink made for her in the doodlesphere to keep PJ contained, so it isolates her from Ink further. The sad part about all of this is... she has options. Jewel COULD go to Reaper and Geno. They wouldn't let her watch Goth if they knew, or have her at least stay with Geno in the Save Screen so she has someone to help her. Geno would never leave her to take care of a child like this alone. Even Red, of all people, would hang out and just keep an eye on the kids, watch TV and hold them while she takes a nap. Just someone to watch and call her if something happens. Dream's healing magic could help with PJ temporarily too, and you know Blueberry would be HAPPY to take Goth for everyone. He'd be the best babysitter ever! Sans would do whatever he could, king of lazy would help her get to sleep in a heartbeat, help her decompress. Jewel's just so used to dealing with her problems herself that she doesn't reach out to anyone. She doesn't feel like she could pawn her problems off on anyone. The only person she's ever truly leaned on was Reaper and that was when she was a child, and it's not like he can help with this. He can't hold PJ, can't take him. It takes her breaking down like this to go to Geno, asking him to watch the kids while she goes and to yell and emotionally beat down Error, and sort of yell at Ink. He at least did something.

Encoded Prompts: Friday - It Was An Accident!

---- Not the first time Ink's been to the anti-void but he definitely avoids it for obvious reasons. But when serious business comes around, even he can be focused. But that doesn't stop his fear from boiling up. No shadows, cuz anti-void. Plus, lazy lol. I didn't want to lose baby Paperjam to shadows. And OMG, I think I overdid Ink's satchel. I used more colors than even in his ref. ---- Baby Paperjam is sick, having had to use part of the determination that keeps them alive to escape the AU they were forming in when Error finally went and destroyed it. They were found by Reaper, who called Jewel since, well, death can't hold a baby that isn't his. She instantly knew something was wrong. They went to Geno first, science background still, and a parent. Jewel has never dealt with a monster baby while sick before. She's babysat Goth and all, but behavior-wise there's no difference. Health-wise, definitely. And Paperjam has the added complication of not being a normal monster. Geno, having determination, like Jewel, notices the soul pretty quickly. It's... such a strange situation. But basically, Paperjam is just having a hard time holding themselves together. (Part of my headcanon why the ink floats away from the form, not just a quirk like Error's glitch, cuz not biologically related at all. Ink's ink can be solid as it wants, but PJ is just not able to fully handle the determination, having lost some, so kind of just slowly bubbles. It gets better with age, but as a baby, PJ would float apart more, the only thing sticking together would be the strings making up their "bones". Jewel has to constantly support this baby, using empathy to help him feel determined to stay together, healing magic to heal physical fatigue that would make him fall apart, and just... try and get him to eat. He's so weak that even eating is almost impossible for the little baby. ---- The scene here is right after Jewel finds Paperjam. They're not fully aware of how sick PJ is. But Jewel saw the baby fall apart (scary in itself, and she's not in a good mood due to it.) She knows how the baby's made. She's been around these two for a long time, she's worked with Error's strings, she's LEARNED HOW TO UNDO THEM IF THEY'RE AROUND HER FINGERS. She's well-versed in their magic by now. Ink's instantly enthralled, tiny baby made of ink! But admittedly the sickness scares him. PJ is a novelty and Error's just nope-ing out of parenthood. He didn't make it, not his fault the kid exists. He made it on his own, the little brat can go through the same trials. Jewel is the only one taking this seriously, but at least Ink is TRYING. Jewel winds up being kicked out of the anti-void by Error when she refuses to give the baby up and she has to bunker down with Ink in the Doodlesphere, who is distracted and often leaves her alone with the baby. At least he provides all the things she needs, just a bit of ink and time, and he can make anything. Btw, the onesie PJ is wearing is actually Goth's. XD Little blue clouds on it lol He can't fit it anymore so Reaper brought it for PJ so the baby could wear something. Good Grandpa Reaper.

Encoded Asks #8 - Annoyances

This one was harder than I thought it would be. I (and by extension, Jewel) am kinda of hard to annoy to the point I think of a person as annoying. But I did think Blueberry was the most annoying Sans when I first got into the fandom, and it's been references quite a bit through Encoded. But as I got to know him through various stories and comics, the little gremlin grew on me. XD He's now a favorite xD

Ask the characters anything on my page!

Or down below in the comments!

Remember, I’m open for commissions!

Encoded Asks #4 - The First Sans

Question from

@s-e-sagas

This one was fun, something you guys get a little sneak peak of. I was gonna hold off on it until at least Chapter 32 was out, but... well, I spoiled it a little with the

last question

, so I figured I'd be preemptive and explain it since it was asked.

Also, I’m open for commissions!

Encoded Prompts: Tuesday - By Moonlight

Not sure how I feel about this. The poses were great, but they get lost in the dark shading. But it's night time, so... I dunno.

---

The scene is Jewel and Reaper are just kind of chilling in the moonlight with coffee. They're both coffee addicts. In fact, Jewel introduced Reaper to flavored coffee as he always just drank it black. After meeting her, he experimented more. This was back when she had her world. When she disappeared, well... his soul kind of shattered, she was "his little light", as he called her. From a young age she knew of him, never feared him, could see him when others couldn't and he just... got attached. He was always there when she really needed help. He even saved her life a couple of times (don't tell the others, ssh~) when she was suicidal. Of course, she's mortal, so he can't touch her. She loves nature, but he kind of wilts anything he touches and it makes him feel bad, so they tend to hang out in the city where there's not really anything for him to wilt. Rooftops were always a favorite since they could overlook everything and if he suddenly had to work, he could go and quickly come back.

Reaper's missed her like crazy. After she returned to her world after a hundred years, despite her soul never reaching his domain in some form (which was actually understandable, her soul is special and she broke out of the natural cycle by living when she was supposed to die, not his doing, btw. xD) she is very much mortal so the fact it was over a hundred years, Reaper thought for sure it had to be some weird coincidence, a reincarnation or something. But as the six years passed, he realized too late that it really was her. Somehow, she was alive, but by the time he realized it, she was gone again, as was her world. It broke him, he had the chance, but he was too afraid to even approach her. She never noticed him as he didn't go to her world as often anymore. It was too painful, everything reminded him of her. Not to mention the media of her and her "Magic mafia" from when she was a bank robber. He actually loved that bit, it was hilarious and... well... death follows destruction so he used it as an excuse to see her more. Despite how much it hurt that she was very much turning dark, she was still his little light and she didn't act different with him, not really.

It had been a full three-hundred some years since he had seen her, talked to her. He gave up trying to look for her, he couldn't find her, even with omnipresence. But as he passed out, standing up, waiting for one of his marks to kick the bucket. She saw him standing on the roof, and she smiled. She got them some coffee and she teased him with his old favorite. He smelled it through his dream and went to reach it, slowly waking up with the smell left and he heard, "Watch it there, Pops, I'm still very much a mortal."

His eye sockets shot open and he stared at her, just smiling at him. He had never wanted to hug someone more in his existence, but couldn't. So instead, he fell back easily into use blue magic on her and did what he could. A pseudo-magic hug. Something she learned to do with Error. All because of Reaper.

His little light. His adoptive daughter. Her guardian angel. Her adoptive father.

"I keep forgetting how tall you are now," a deep, haunting laugh escaped through his teeth.

"Eh, you're just shrinking, old man."
