Neither of them are the same anymore. But maybe it's for the better. Maybe only their broken selves can find peace. || Chrisker slowburn postcanon!AU, in which they learn to be loved again.
look it has a cover art now! which means -- masterpost time!!
postcanon!au,
in which Rose shares some haunting memories
TW: past child abuse
disclaimer: i don't think Mia would inherently be a bad mother. but i also don't think she could've realistically managed her ptsd without Ethan
anyway,, this chapter's opening a series of flashbacks of how Rose's adopton came to be, so a little more Mia is on the way hehe (hope you like canon compliant angst!!)
heeyooo update on my chrisker series!! stuff is being cooked! the next chapter will release in 2 or 3 weeks if nothing else goes wrong. it'll be more Rose-centric 'cause i miss my girl and you should too!
as to what went wrong behind the scenes,,
OH MY FUCKING GOD what a month. or two. i don't wanna check.
first, i've wanted to do a little spin off series with cut scenes from the main comic for a while now. like, cool dialoges that didn't make it to final script or extra bits and pieces. and so, i set down, started the first 'chapter' and suddenly remembered why i'd cut it! because i'm repeating myself! because i've drawn it and said it in anothen context! but two cakes are better then one. but! but!!
and so i spent an UNGODLY amount of time in this paralysis, and by the point when i decided to drop it till better times, all my other deadlines came to me burning and screaming. and so i needed to rush those! and i didn't like it!
(also, no i didn't delete the unfinished stuff. i'll return to it later and probably won't have any idea why i had such a temper tantrum over it. but not now. i don't wanna look at it now)
and do you think it's over?? HELL NAH because after all this, there was a fucking CONSTRUCTION WORK right outside my window. and by 'right outside' i mean they could literally see the screen in my room. they were LITERALLY OUTSIDE MY WINDOW FOR A WEEK. needless to say, couldn't really draw silly gay comic with that noise and extra eyes.
and, just for good measure, i've played In Stars and Time. absolutely incredible game, would recommend it to anyone who loves time-fuckery and slow descent into madness, but it's also SO GOOD that i needed to write an 20k-fic, like, immedeately after finishing. it's out, though it's in Russian and i honestly don't expect anyone in my audience to know this game. but. that's another reason why it takes this long to draw a chapter.
also if you know isat i think you could've guessed i've played it recently just by looking at rose lol
ANYWAY. IT'S ALL OVER NOW. i'm working, stuff's looking cool, thank you for your patience, god knows how anxious i feel everytime someone's binging my comics when i haven't updated it yet. also thank you for reading this rant lmao
Just wanted to say that your chrisker comic and art gives me life. Makes me feel inspired to actually write the chrisker fanfics I have in my head. But really, really phenomenal work! Every update is a treat!
i'm so happy to hear it!! i love them with burning passion, so.... if you end up writing something thanks to me, i'd be a great honor :3
(and if it's something inspired BY me, feel free to send it or tag me on ao3 -- i'll probably blow up the moment i see it, but after that, it'd be a lot fun to read!)
in case you want to know how bad the new tumblr update is. look at the notes. these are from the same post. screenshotted at the same time. the first one is a screenshot from tumblr app where the new update hasn’t been implemented yet. the second one is a screenshot from web browser where the new update has already been implemented.
here let me make it clearer.
app 👇🏻
browser 👇🏻
again. same post. screenshotted at the same time.
basically, op will only get notes if people like or reblog directly from them. if people like or reblog the original post they made from other people’s reblogs — and if those reblogs have comments or tags left by the rebloggers — op will not get any notes or credits. because apparently when people reblog the original posts you made and add their own tags or comments in those reblogs, it now counts as new posts and these “new posts” belongs to the reposters. not you as the op.
imagine being an artist on tumblr and getting the least notes on your own art while your reposters get hundreds or thousands of notes from your hard works, because they reblog the art you spent weeks or months making and add “very cool op 👍🏻” as a comment or a tag.
but not only will you not receive those notes, you as the op cannot see what comments people leave on your own original posts that you created either, unless it’s a direct reblog from you.
not to mention the harassment against op this new update will undoubtedly unfortunately allow.
@tumblr @staff @changes @support with all due respect, this new update is both terrible and harmful
I saw a snippet of your comic(the Chrisker one?? idk I think it's called bloody dances or something) and I was wondering if you have a masterlist or something so I can read it fully in order or something like that!
it looks really cool!!
(for reference it was this post that I saw)
I... have actually been meaning to do a masterpost of this AU for ages. i guess it's a sign to finally do it huh
however,, in the meantime,
you can use '#bloody dances: comic' tag -- i post the comics in order, so you can just scroll to the very first chapter and read it from there.
or! you can go directly to the first chapter and click the "next part" link -- they all are interconnected.
also, i post it on ao3 as a series! tbh probably the most convenient way to read it rn.
and just for completion sake, there's also '#bloody dances: bonus' tag for random arts of this AU. and just '#bloody dances' as an umbrella tag for everything.
hope something from this list is helpful, and thanks for your interest in my stuff! <З
postcanon!au,
in which the ghosts come at night, to hurt and to save
*he did, in fact, find blueprints for more than one Samurai Edge model. he just chose specifically Wesker's one. and called it Albert. who knows why~
**tooooo late in the process i found out there're, apparently, JP texts saying it wasn't Chris who found the blueprints but blue umbrella. however no one in capcom gives a fuck about blue umbrella and i, too, chose to ignore it
*sometimes i found myself thinking about those zombies in re5 with insects growing in place of their heads if you shoot them. i think chris remembers them too from time to time
god it was a difficult chapter to make -- i've rewrote the text at least 5 times, and the first storyboard got corrupted. i hope the result is cool at least. also i've changed the way i post chapters with this one -- let me know if it's better or worse!
Hi, I'm a fan of your RE comic with Albert and Chris. You have a great way of portraying Chris' mental struggles in such a visceral manner. Do you have a ko-fi that I can donate to to show support?
awww that's so sweet, I appreciate the gesture!! sadly, no, I don't have a kofi or anything similar. however a comment is also a nice way to show support, so you already have done a lot! <З
//I wanna do a youtuber thing and say like subscribe and show the comic to your friend, but I'm afraid to sound obnoxious. that's why I totally didn't write it rn!
