My OC Danei As An Angel In Obey Me! :3c I Have One More Angel OC And Two Demon OCs Coming Soon, Hopefully.

OC Week Day 1: Ishikawa Reika

Introductions

Reika is a 28-year-old, fourth-generation Japanese American who grew up in a predominantly white town. Reconnecting with her Japanese roots and finding a sense of home has been a lifelong journey, the most recent step of which was moving to Japan for her work as an educational psychologist. 

Unfortunately, she didn’t have much time to adjust to her new cultural surroundings before a misadventure – involving a calico cat in traffic, a grad student at a historical monument, and a storm – flung her 500 years into the past.

It’s not a happy arrival, and it takes some time for Reika to warm up to her captors in Azuchi. However, in general, Reika comes across as friendly and easy-going, quick to smile and thoughtful in conversation. While she’s happy to play the role of a humble and somewhat eccentric scholar, at her core is an iron sense of ethics that can propel her into conflict.

Reika is intent on returning home through the wormhole. Though she lacks an internal sense of home, she’s keenly aware on the effect her disappearance will have on the people who care about her, and she is determined not to leave them in grief and uncertainty.

Recent Snyk stuff inspired by convos with @popatochisssp and @motherbugmo (the last one is a design to go with her really lovely and imaginative UnderScribes au!) [Edit: oops -- forgot to add the design for popato's Undergloom au. That's the last one now!]

HC: What Kennyo would think of the Warlords if he were allied with  them – Pt. II: Takeda-Uesugi Alliance

Had fate played out differently and Kennyo allied with the Oda Forces, or joined the Takeda-Uesugi alliance without his brothers killed and Hongan-Ji razed first, or was simply a neutral party hanging out in either Azuchi or Kasaguyama Castle, this might be what he thinks of everyone (I guess it’s Kennyo’s “Another Ikemen Sengoku,” haha~):

[Pt. I: The Oda Forces]

The Takeda-Uesugi Alliance:

Kennyo weeps with joy, relief and gratitude when he finds out Shingen is still alive. He hurries to Echigo, hardly stopping for rest; upon arriving, Shingen tells him he looks terrible. Kennyo holds it together long enough to shoot back that Shingen looks remarkably well for a wandering ghost (“I shouldn’t be surprised that your preening to impress women carried on to the afterlife–”), but when Shingen grins and opens his arms, Kennyo can’t help but give him the biggest bro hug.

They’ve mostly resumed where they left off, spending evenings drinking and contemplating the world when things are peaceful enough (though, as usual, there’s a mismatch in their preferred subjects of contemplation and they rib each other for it). Beneath their long, meandering talks, Shingen worries about Kennyo’s increasing distress as he desperately tries to keep Hongan-Ji safe, and Kennyo worries about the cold bitterness growing in Shingen’s heart that demands vengeance for his home and clan. Of course, both of them insist that they are fine.

Kennyo is also grateful for Yukimura’s diligent care of his good friend. Though he lightly admonishes Yuki now and again for his lack of forethought in speaking to others, Kennyo sees him as a valiant, upstanding young man and a fine leader. Of course, that doesn’t stop him from having a chuckle at Yukimura’s expense when he bickers with Sasuke, Shingen, and Kenshin, but he makes up for it by having Yuki’s back against Shingen’s “get me candy or I’ll die” nonsense, and by giving Shingen significant [read: smug] “you should listen to the boy” looks when Yuki tells him to stop being weird towards women. Sometimes, when Yukimura is feeling especially worried about Shingen, he’ll talk to Kennyo as a confidante and adviser.

Like everyone else, Kennyo finds Sasuke odd, but strangely charismatic, as Sasuke is mature, respectful, well-spoken, thoughtful, insightful, and obviously capable as a ninja. They are very formal and courteous with one another, and Kennyo is always willing to answer Sasuke’s many questions, though he finds the other man a bit elusive and puzzling. Kennyo is used to being able to read people and to people opening up to him, but that’s not the case with Sasuke–the ninja has a remarkably stoic demeanor and seems to hover just out of reach. Kennyo wonders about the well-being of a man with so many secrets (and one sworn to Kenshin, at that), but is content to let him be, knowing that Sasuke will open up on his own time if help is needed.

Kenshin and Kennyo have a…strained relationship. Kennyo intensely disapproves of Kenshin’s warmongering and his penchant for attempting to kill his own vassals (noticeably, Sasuke). He’s had to fend off some of the warlord’s spontaneous “tests” himself, and his snarling reprimands when he pushes back don’t seem to phase Kenshin. Ultimately, Kennyo just ends up disgruntled at his own failure to remain temperate. As much as Kenshin’s lust for violence rankles him, Kennyo senses the warlord’s fractured sense of self, and worries deeply for him. Now and again he tries to engage Kenshin in conversation, but Kenshin’s refusal to talk about anything that doesn’t revolve around fighting, sake, or pickled plums bludgeons his patience until he has to leave, unless Kenshin gets bored and leaves (or attacks him) first.

Wanted to try drawing what I refer to as "Hunger Horror" -- when Horror drawn as Big and Fluffy and Round (but somehow in an intimidating way sjldf;jldsafj), more bestial and hulking than SAS's original Horrortale Sans. It's not how I'd keep drawing HT!Sans, but I like how it came out anyway and am happy I drew it at least once :3c

Error things I did for @spookyflavors a while back~ A couple silly doodles and a phone bg

This is the Something New timeline:

There is a Bad Ending -- a timeline where Sans helps r̸̭̽ȩ̵̈́d̶̫͘a̴̱̽c̴̰̓t̶̬̑ȅ̷̙d̶̹̾ or the Bad Sanses -- and a Good Ending, a timeline where Sans kills ŕ̵͓͗̀ë̵͈͕́̓d̷͉͐͛̓ȁ̶̳̳̥̚c̸̻͔̒̒̆t̵͎́͘e̴̞̬̝͌͂d̸̥͈́.

Let’s see what happened first:

Sans will of course say “No.” He doesn’t want to help ř̶̹͙̘̖̺͎̘̪̣̪́̎̚ͅe̶̡͙̫̤̳̗̜̰͕̟̽̿̓̔͝d̶̳͔͎̲̥̙̮͚̩͉̗͔̦̊̊̅̇̏̈́͒̈́̒̕͝a̷̪̐̃͂͗̃̂͛c̴̟͔̏̋̽̿̋͝t̵̡̩͎̱̘̝͙͔͚̑̏̽́̐̅̊ͅe̷̡͈̞̱͓̺̱̞͚͕̫̍̈́̇̌̀͗d̶̳̄̔̌̀̓̀̈̚͝ kill his friends.

And ŗ̷̘̲̹̂͝e̷͚͋́d̸͈̣̊ä̶̢̯́ͅc̶̲͍͆̓̇͝ṫ̷̩̫͔̝̊͆ḛ̴̗̫̫͝ḑ̴̣͒́̓ knows that whatever they do, he will say “NO.”

His code says that. He is “programmed” to be like this.

But “YOU” want to change the code.

Please let him say yes. Let him say yes! We want him to HURT THEM. We want him to KILL THEM.

Killer Sans is here because of “YOU.”

And you want him to love you.

“I have something special, just for you.”

Very rough concept sketch for another form of Nightmare to use in my own stories (maybe! eventually!) -- I like writing him as speaking very eloquently in a cruel, condescending way, but it’s a little undermined when he looks like our round snuggly boy Sans Undertale. 😂 I just don’t find him scary in a hoodie and basketball shorts. He can be scary in the way he behaves, but... well, it’s fun to play around with new ideas, too.

So I hc that while sometimes he chooses to look like Sans, specifically around people who know Sans because it’s extremely unsettling to see a warped, goopy, tentacled version of someone you know and love (or to see a warped, goopy, tentacled version of yourself!), his default form borrows more from the body he stole/corrupted -- i.e., from the true Nightmare. He’s chosen to make himself intimidatingly tall, though, with unsettling proportions. He wears the robe open and is just naked bones underneath because people are often spooked by skeletal figures... he’s SOL with skelefuckers, though, hahahaha~

😭 Ahhhh she looks so prettyyyy~ Thank you so much, Kooty! I love this so much!  🐍🌸 🐍🌸 🐍🌸 💕 💕 💕 💕

And Killer in the background... hehehe~

A kofi for @nyktoon !! Thank you for helping me pay for my toof!!😭💕

Sometimes, you just gotta have a good, peaceful soak while your sneaky skele-boyfriend keeps a watchful eye on you!

🐍🌸

Here it is! Finished piece for my redesign of Swap!Sans / Blue.

Please imagine his homemade not-actually-metal armor clattering hilariously whenever he moves.
