Thinking about the whole "there is no platonic explanation for this" thing and how it doesn't account for intense platonic situationships and anyways I think we should start saying "there is no casual explanation for this" bc really what we're talking about is the way the characters in question are Obsessed with each other

ive been wanting to make smth like this for a little while now and i finally finished it up ^_^ hopefully my tricks are helpful

EDITS: since this post is gaining a lot of traction, i want to highlight some of the suggestions and addendums that other people have made. i'm imperfect, which is why i recommend that you use references of real people along with my simple tips!

as many have pointed out, the yellow in the last diagram should cover the entire body, especially around the stomach area. the only parts of the body that are consistently bare are the palms of the hands and the bottoms of the feet

check out this reblog from @proxykiwi for a diagram of the distribution of hair on the back of the body

the texture of the hair can differ between the head and the body-- much of the time body and beard hair is curlier than the hair on the head

like when drawing head hair, its helpful to break up facial hair into descriptive shapes, and add lines for texture as needed. i tried to communicate that in the images, but i think its also useful to write it out

check out this reblog from @jodjuya for a detailed explanation of how beards tend to grow throughout teen-adult years

thank you to everyone who's suggested and added things! i encourage people to look through the replies and reblogs of this post for more information

Which character in vsmp do you find the most vivisect-able (aside from the Doc) and why?

Oooooh good question! A good dissection/vivisection fic is really about powerlessness, forced vulnerability, and dehumanization.

On top of that, a good dissection fic will generally have irony, emotional attachment, and hope. The first two, to elevate the horror of what's going on, and the last to keep tension in the fic and prevent the reader from deciding it's hopeless and checking out.

The irony can stem from the same power a character usually holds, and also offer hope -- a chance at escape, if only they can access those abilities.

Or it can stem from the emotional attachment and the be tied inextricably to the possibility of escape: if only, if only the character can use the emotional attachment to convince the person doing the vivisection to stop, then they can escape! They can be saved!

Danny Phantom fics do both of the above frequently, which is probably part of why they're so effectively horrifying.

Anyway.

We're looking for a character with themes around power and vulnerability, who gets dehumanized regularly. Perhaps, someone who reaches for power because of helplessness and dehumanization they've experienced.

So I think Avid or Pyro.

One of the only people canon Doc's liable to do unethical exploratory surgery on is himself, which ticks a different set of boxes mostly related to scientific curiosity (look. I love speculative biology even if I don't yap that much about vampire biology on here) and wallowing in the depths of a character's self-loathing.

There is, however. The potential of needing to do exploratory surgery on someone for genuine, non-malicious reasons, and I think that could open up a lot of fun options. They're not as much about helplessness and dehumanization, though, since being non-malicious they're likely to also be consensual.

You can actually enhance or even fix a large amount of character designs all across the world by adding body fat percentage and/or body hair. Don't they teach this in schools? What the hell?

[laserwalnut]

AND WRINKLES HOLY SHIT! Even characters on the younger end if they're so emotive for example. It's cute. It's human. Come on

[scribeherself]

the absolute devastating intimacy of a forehead rest. when you are both just so tired from existing in a world that demands you to be a rigid, functional individual, and you finally collapse into each other and just lean your forehead against theirs, or against their shoulder. it’s the physical equivalent of dropping your shields. it’s saying i am entirely heavy right now, and i am trusting you to bear a piece of that weight. and the most beautiful part is that the other person doesn’t even flinch. they just adjust their stance, tuck you a little closer, and absorb the impact. we were designed to divide the burden of being alive.

I don’t know if I should be amused or distressed by the realization that someday this post will probably be useful to linguists.

Not a linguist but useful to me in many ways regardless
