Samael | She / They | 🏳️‍🌈 | Carrd | Comms, Tips on Ko-Fi

❤️━━━━❘🫀🥢🍷❘━━━━❤️

❧ Professional and hobby artist. Casual writer. Cute or ghoulish, can be a gamble which type of art you will see first.

❧ Asks welcome. Art requests currently closed / limited. Commissions and tips open on Ko-Fi.

❧ A few constants I post are art, film and fashion, comics and horror. Occasionally poems. Some of my favourites are JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Fear & Hunger, Silent Hill, Clock Tower and other retro 90s-00s horror games.

❧ For my own art I use the tags "fan art", "original art" and "sketchbook". ❧ My blog and work contain sensitive or dark subject matter at times - gore and guro, suggestive themes, dark humor, body horror, etc. Most is SFW and has content tags if needed.

❧ Writing and poetry archive sideblog is @hauntmetosleep.

It's a development blog, so posts about the plot may end up being posted randomly or out of order as I write them down. There's no real concern of spoilers or anything like that. This has been confusing me so thought I'd ask.

God, I love it when people who clearly have personal experience or expert knowledge on certain things write obscure AUs that incorporate those things so hyperspecifically that I feel like I'm learning something.

I love nurses who write hospital AUs that have accurate medical knowledge just thrown in there because they went to medical school and when people who clearly had a phase where they obsessed over a certain time period write an AU set in that time period or location it's just so fun.

Tell me about the 1950s Chicago culture and history and how the characters are interracial and how that affects their life, I love when the money is accurately converted and the personal histories of the characters are thoughtfully woven to incorporate the new setting they're put in, I love it when people care so much about making something and use their own expertise to aide them.

Chanel, awakened as the hopeful one of the sages and protectors of the Stone Tower Temple, trapped within an area only accessible when the entire temple itself was inverted.

Previously forced to inhabit the temple as the other half of the monster of the canyon, Twinmold, the Hero of Time Dege heals the curse on him and his other half so he may awaken as the Sage of Body. Chanel wants nothing more than to help, hoping his ethereal Light Arrows will make a big difference. He intends to be a symbol of light and hope once the whole ordeal is over, if they survive.

I started some character sketches for my horror side project. I always want to elaborate on it more but I'm a little scattered and worn, so if there's interest, I'll do some character and storyline posts. Or a side-blog if I have enough cohesive material?

The (really simplified) basic plot is a woman's brother suddenly disappears when they move to a new town, and she ends up falling into its occult, nightmare-like underbelly looking for him. An Alice in Wonderland type of story, but anchored between surreal, meaty dream horror and a sort of rustic realism?

*Update*: Made a sideblog for the project! Will post the name when I've finished it. I'm going to release it as a development blog and wiki - with concept art, details and plot elements. Eventually every character and chapter will have a proper tag so you can learn the whole story.

I think this will be more fun than throwing it all immediately into a formal piece of media. And on the Tumblr version I can post memes and Q&A. c:

Something I think would've been clever is if Maria's clothing or mannerisms changed in little, subtle ways each time her and James get separated - maybe based on your behaviour around her?

As if James' ideal of her wasn't 100% solidified, or blends into his memory of Mary or some element of the town itself.

Dior, awakened as the jaded one of the sages and protectors of the Stone Tower Temple.

Previously forced to inhabit the temple as one half of the monster of the canyon, Twinmold, the Hero of Time Dege splits him and his other half from the curse placed on them so he can take his place as the Sage of Mind. Dior realizes there is not a single braincell bouncing around those in the crew, and joins ONLY because he knows they’ll get themselves killed if he doesn’t. He definitely doesn’t care about them, not at all.
