#weirdtober2020

[peppermintmonster]

Doing eldritch aesthetic prompts last year was really rewarding, so I’m coming back with another list - this one with a slight “weird Americana” flavor. Everything is scary and confusing, let’s draw weird stuff together.

As with last year’s prompts, you are welcome to use these prompts for anything you want. I’d also love it if you’d use the tag #weirdtober or #weirdtober2020 so I can see all your bizarre creations!

Text list is under the cut, because it is long.

Inktober Day 21: Miles And Miles Of Tunnels

McMansion

Yes, it hates and hungers, the vast thing, but with no dignity. No ancient trees shadow it; it does not stand alone. A quilt of perfect sod separates it from fellows equally dreadful. It has no strength; all of its awful angles are real enough to be measured, and most of its features are foam.

Young families dismiss it; the realtor’s annoyance with the albatross has long outweighed all the unease the house can muster.

I could pity it, almost, as it dreams of dankness where it now has myriad can lights, pristine ivory wall-to-wall, and a full wet bar.

Day 1 : abandoned places

I maybe went overboard:) anyway have fantasy moth jon in the woods

[Image description: A three panel black and white comic showing jon sims, a man with long dark hair and a cloak resembling moth wings approaching an abandoned house in a forest. The first panel shows all the house, which has a small tower protruding from the main building and a small balcony. The house is surrounded by spaced out trees and bushes. Jon is walking towards the house. The second panel shows him opening the front door. The final panel is a close up of his face as he enters the house. End image description]

“And within those numbers are all of our dooms. If you know how to read them. And I read them. I read them all, and saw the doom of everyone who lives and breathes and hopes for life and happiness.”
