She's everything. He's just Leif.
For BertBert's design I wanted to incorporate a pattern based on tropical fish and Māori face tattoos. I am very happy with how she turned out.

Sexiest Podcast Character 2026 — Round 3
Who is sexier?
Dr. Pete Moss and The Bone God AKA It Who Persists
Verge
Propaganda
Dr. Pete Moss (Tidal Wave Games Podcast: SEE YOU SPACE COWBOY...):
Former college botany professor, disgraced and disbarred after taking the fall for illegal and unethical bio-engineering experiments (plant monsters) that went awry. With no other employment prospects, was roped into the space bounty hunting gig by Emmy Acero, a former student who had also fallen on hard times
Not the step dad, the dad that stepped down from his prestigious position at a scientific institution by order of the board of ethics
Used to look like Magnum P.I. in his younger days, now in his 60s but still 6'2" and built like a former linebacker. You have to carry a lot of bags of dirt around in his line of work
Anyway here's Pete in his very first appearance getting way too into the idea of tree transmogrification
The Bone God AKA It Who Persists (Hope's Hearth):
The Bone God is a dead god whose bones were brought to a foreign planet by a dog that's a moon. The Bone God has anxiety. The Bone God ate its own sibling to save its entire world. The Bone God uses it/its pronouns, the sexiest pronouns. The Bone God is huge and bestial and terrifying. The Bone God is soft and nervous and kind. The Bone God is dating a guy who's basically Trans Steve Irwin and pulled him with its autism rizz. The Bone God is just a little guy, if a little guy could climb on the ceiling and had a halo of fire. The Bone God is learning what it means to be a god in a modern world when its old obligations are no longer who it is.
Verge (Midnight Burger):
COME ON IT'S VERGE
Verge is *supposed* to be sexy and their actor pulls it off in spades. They are a survivor of a planetwide destruction and are hunted by everyone at all times. I feel a little bad for advocating for them as being the sexiest, as they use their charm and sex appeal as a survival tactic, but that doesn't make them any less hot. Plus they're really cute and still effortlessly sexy when they feel safe enough to let their guard down.

texts discovered on leif's shitty nokia
okokok i went nuts.

Young Leif - emaciated \\ - stolen everything \\ - needs tlc \\ - should not be this small
Welcome to the Horizon S1: - still emaciated \\ - getting tlc \\ - owns clothes that fit /better/
Welcome to the Horizon S2: - loved + wanted + supported \\ - -1000 stress \\ - able to relax
some design notes: they're really malnourished from being hunted for fun and sport by basically the whole triad. and like. they aren't supposed to be the same color as their hair. first doodle is when leif meets them. the color difference between YL and WTTH1 is leif's work. good job leif. also verge has been on the run basically their whole life. i feel like once they get someplace safe n stable (hoods pocket) they'd shoot up like 5 inches and it would terrify them. this is good tho. they have more capacity to hug everyone they care about. also verge and the ashleysaurus would understand each other on a spiritual level they would be such good buddies. idc that the ashleysaurus doesn't have the same sapience as our main cast LET THEM BE FUN
Young Leif isnt a hear me out but a HOLD ME THE FUCK BACK
young leif i love you, young bert bert i love you, young(?) verge i love you, alice i love you, elden i love you, dez i love you, music of the young leif series i love you
young leif series i love you
To anyone wanting to write a fic but they’re worried about how it’ll be received
Crackfics are an essential part of fandom and you look at the characters differently then someone else, which means someone gets their favorite character version 378944. You are also better than AI.
I don’t care if it’s 200 words or 200 chapters or 200 one-word chapters, you should write it!
