Papyton Week Day 6 & 7: Music & Smooch

"A little bit less than we might like/ I know this ain't heaven/ It's close enough for me" ~ Tim Curry, "Something Short of Paradise"

Where Papyrus looks for order in a world full of chaos, Mettaton is content to let chaos be chaos and, yet, Mettaton still looks for meaning in the disarray.

No. There may never be order in Mettaton’s world. There may not be a pattern. There may not be a puzzle, a painting, or a picture. But, there is something.

I know Papyton Week is *technically* over, but it is still Papyton Week in my heart. Actually, I just hadn't finished this, and I wanted to give the folks who run the Papyton week blog credit for the prompts. It was an incredible week that was lots of fun, so I wanted to give credit where credit is due.

I hope y'all had as much fun as I did because I had a blast. I plan to reblog more stuff now that I'm not so deep in writer brain that I can't get out.

Much love to y'all.

Thank you so much to everyone who participated last week! We are pretty lax about accepting submissions after the fact too so if you missed it you are still welcome to tag us in stuff!

It was a really awesome event this year! Hope to see you next March or April!

Papyton Week Day 5: Boots

“Lady Toriel tells us both that we ought to enjoy the moments when there are three sets of boots at the door instead of just two. I, for one, do not need to be told, and I know that Russ doesn't need to be either. We'll foster him for as long as he wishes to be fostered. For as long as he wishes to be ours, for as long as three sets of boots are at the door, I will cherish it." ***** Hi! I made art today.

The young dude in the picture is Oliver. He's a 23 year old college kid that Papyrus and Mettaton sort of mentor? ... adopted? It's complicated. But, they're definitely the folks he considers his folks more than his biological parents. Sometimes he stays at their apartment when he's not with his girlfriend, and those days make the two of them super happy. That's about all you need to know about him.

(I feel like I'm fifteen again. XD)

I had hella fun drawing this. I drew it on bristol paper. So, the colors didn't quite catch on my camera the way they do in person. It looks a little over exposed for some reason? (Also, Mettaton is actually silver, so he sparkles.)

I don't draw all that often because I don't have a lot of time. I whipped this up in a couple of interrupted hours this evening.

So, if the shading and stuff looks rough, it is.

That said, I love how Papyrus turned out. I've tried drawing him a billion times and I feel like I can just never get him quite right.

And, my LORD, I feel like I finally have Mettaton in the correct balance between "hardcore punk" and "colorful popstar." The septum piercing is what he was missing. I still think I can play with his cheekbones and jawline a little. (I should have pulled up some reference pictures, but I didn't have time.)

Okay, I'm sleepy. I'm signing off for today. Toodles!
