Some Ephie sprites!! I’m not so good at pixel art so go easy on me ahahah!!!

Spamton’s first summer in the Light World

(My self insert, Ephie, left, goes by they/she/he pronouns)

Some simplified refs for these guys lol

I’ll prob repost this in the morning with all their relevant information but for now here’s a basic physical ref for Ephie!!

All my mutuals are making addisonas so here’s mine tee hee!! Their name is Pim, like personal information manager software lol,, they work for one of my oc’s, Cybel Lovett!! Poor guy, their boss is a real pain in the ass!!

Some assorted doodles and stuff bc my motivation is still lacking unfortunately!!

Top one is a lined pencil doodle, bottom left is a finger doodle and bottom right is a pencil doodle!! The oc is my character Ephie!! They use they/she pronouns!!

left to right; sketch at the dentist office, finished, finished + transparent

anyways, just a silly lil doodle i decided to actually clean up!! 

Meet Tiff Callister

Her name, Tiff is based on Addison naming conventions, as per Spamton’s insistence, but close enough to sounding like a traditional Lightner name that Ephie didn’t think she would get bullied for it, reasoning that she could just say Tiff was short for Tiffany or something!! She never did have a problem with being bullied for her name, as it turns out! 

In that line of thought, growing up, while definitely strange in many ways, both in terms of personality and heritage, Tiff never failed to make and keep friends, being a very likeable little girl! 

Admittedly, she is quite odd, always has been. She likes history and math and frogs and other things many little girls are taught to dislike. Her parents, Ephie and Spamton, always encouraged her interests, knowing it pointless and cruel to squander a child’s passions, even if they didn’t necessarily understand said interests! 

Other info:

- Spamton’s nickname for her is Sunshine; when he first arrived in the Light World, he was struck by the beauty and heavenly light of the Sun and he felt the same way upon meeting Tiff for the first time, suffice it to say, the association stuck

- Ephie loves geeking out about different animals with Tiff, having always loved animals, themself (the two discuss things like the taxonomy of amphibious organisms and Spamton listens and nods enthusiastically, despite understanding nothing of it)

- when they first had Tiff, Spamton knew he wanted to be a dad, but Ephie wasn’t sure what Tiff would call them; thankfully, Tiff kinda settled if for them when she started calling them ‘Moddy’, a word she came up with upon hearing that Ephie was like her mom and another dad!!

- once older, Tiff abandoned ‘Moddy’ (at least in public) in favor of ‘Mod’ in reference to their nonbinary parent, a play on multiple things

      -Mod, like a moderator of an online chatroom, the big boss, as it were

      -Mod, like a combination of mom and dad; doubling as a shortened               version of her formative name for Ephie

- when Tiff first arrived, Ephie had just started a position as an astronomer at an important company, taking up a lot of their time; Spamton quit his job as a teacher at the School and became a stay at home dad

- as Tiff got older, Spamton reignited his passion for sales, with more success this time, kickstarting an auto repair company in the Light World, leaving Tiff alone much of the day when not at school

- on days where neither of her parents could be home for her after school, Kris, much older now, agreed to babysit her

- Kris, admittedly has a long and complicated relationship with the Callister couple (I mean, Spamton DID try to take their SOUL once lol) but absolutely adores Tiff and Tiff sees Kris as a very cool older sibling

- speaking of SOULs, Tiff has an orange SOUL of bravery,,

That’s all I have for her rn!! Hope you like her!!! <33

Bonus doodle of an outing with Kris!! She thinks they’re the best!!

---------------------------

this scene takes place one of the first mornings they are back in the Light World. Spamton thinks the early morning sunlight on Ephemeris makes them look even more like an angel. Heavenly . . .

anyways, i am REALLY proud of this so if you’d consider reblogging please, that would be very appreciated!!!<3

------------

When Spamton regained consciousness, life being thrust into him, via the arrival of a brand new white SOUL, the first thought that went through his mind was this: 

‘I’m alive?’

The second one, of course, was ‘Is Ephie okay?’

Sure enough, laying slack and unconscious on the ground next to him, was Ephie, though they were breathing shallowly, just enough to indicate to Spamton that they were indeed alive. 

Cradling them best he could, Spamton brought his partner close, willing them to wake up again. 

After a few minutes, Ephie slowly reentered to waking world, looking up to see that their desperation had paid off: he was alive. He was alive. 

It also occurred to them that they were alive. How? It really didn’t matter in the moment. 

They were together. 

They’d figure the rest out later, together.

short story (likely 2-3 part) for how Spamton meets Ephie in the deltafell au!!

------------------------------

Chapter 2

“Excellent choice!” Spamton said mockingly, before motioning towards himself, “[Follow the leader] me, we need to get you [fixed up]. You look [top 10 funniest home videos].”

Hesitantly, still not quite believing that he isn’t going to hurt them right there and then, Ephemeris made their way over to Spamton. 

Spamton, to his credit, noticed her wariness, and held his hands up placatingly. Though any calming effect may have been nullified by the smirk plastered across his face. 

Eyeing him, cautiously, Ephemeris stopped just in front of Spamton, keeping an arm’s length apart from him. 

Placing a hand on her upper back, Spamton guided Ephemeris to face another door, this one more concealed. Said door led into a hallway which led into winding corridors and stairs, all of which Spamton led Ephemeris through with ease. After about 2 minutes, the pair reached their destination, a room that looked to be a rather fancy bathroom, complete with an ornate light fixture. 

While Ephemeris stared in awe at the unnecessary grandeur of the place, Spamton shuffled through a cabinet, some drawers and a chest until he returned to their side, bearing a pile of impeccably folded clothing. 

“Here” he holds out the pile to a very confused Ephemeris, “You will [squeaky clean!] yourself and change into these [5 hottest fashion items], got it?”

Ephemeris, still baffled at this entire situation as it was unfolding, simply nodded their assent and padded over to turn on the faucet of the shower, before pausing and glancing back over at Spamton, still watching them. 

“Erhm.. you gonna go or...?” Ephemeris fidgeted nervously, hoping desperately that he was going to leave and this wasn’t going to get creepy. 

Spamton, for once, in the little time that Ephemeris had known him, looked caught off guard, face turning a light pink, apart from his already red cheeks. 

“Just get dressed, alright?” he grumbled out before turning heel and practically storming out the door. 

------------------------------

Half an hour later, a clean Ephemeris emerged from the bathroom, wearing the surprisingly flattering and tasteful outfit Spamton had provided for them. 

Spamton, who had been sitting in the adjacent hallway outside the bathroom, stood up and looked Ephemeris up and down, appraising their appearance, upon seeing them. 

Suddenly self conscious, under Spamton’s scrutiny, Ephemeris did her best to subtly suck in her stomach a bit, something which did not go unnoticed by him. He frowned a bit. 

“Ya look fine toots, no need to [hide and seek] yourself with me, ‘k?” he said in a tone much softer than Ephemeris would’ve imagined him capable of. 

‘Who was this guy and what did he do with the intimidating boss who I met earlier?’

The silence between the two was palpable before Spamton broke it. 

“What is your [nametag here] anyway? I can’t keep calling you Light<NER and toots, now can I?”

Ephemeris, still reeling from the gentle reassurance and pet name, took a minute before responding, “Ephemeris Callister. Ephie, just call me Ephie” she stutters out. 

“Ephie” he said, trying out the name in his mouth, “Well, I take it you already who I am? After all, I *am* the [best salesman 1997] in Cyber World~” he adds cockily. 

‘Annd there he is again’ they thought to themself. 

Ephie nodded, saying, “Spamton G. Spamton, I’ve seen you on the posters and stuff”, to which Spamton’s chest puffed out a bit, pridefully. 

“Well of course you have, I figure that’s what brought you to my little [soiree], what with all the [good eats] and such!” he teased. 

Ephie blushed and turned away in embarrassment, rubbing her arm, “yea, about that.. I never did apologize for-”

Spamton made a dismissive noise and waved his hand, “Ah, don’t worry about it [dollface], let’s chalk it up to, say, we got off on the wrong foot, eh?”

Ephie stared at him, dumbfoundedly. ‘He was being so . . . friendly? And after that big old act earlier?’ They couldn’t figure him out. Physically shaking their head to bring themself back to reality, Ephie forced themself to meet Spamton’s eyes, replying, “Yeah, I guess so...” and then trailing off a bit. 

Spamton laughed loudly and obnoxiously, “You really are a [shy little lamb] aren’t ya toots?” he quiets down after noticing that Ephie wasn’t also laughing with him and adds, “Err, you don’t have to be so nervous doll, we made a [deals out of this world] and I plan to keep up my end of the [bargain goods]. I’m not gonna hurt ya, okay?”

Ephie tore their eyes away from his, knowing full well they were going to cry and not wanting this stranger to see them at their weakest. It was just all too much. The stress of being lost and not able to get back home, the aching hunger, and not least of all, the fact that they were now being held captive by a powerful businessman in an unfamiliar city. It was too much for them to bear and they felt hot tears streaming down their cheeks. 

Spamton had been watching this entire thought process unfold on Ephie’s face, and yet still was almost shocked when he saw that they were  . . . crying? Jeez, he knew he had scared them, after all, that was the point at first, but this? He really hadn’t meant to make them cry. The expression of hopelessness on the human’s face was too stingingly familiar not to make his cold dead heart ache a little. 

“Hey, hey, hey, toots, [doll], sweetcheeks” he showered her with petnames, “Easy, what’s with the [waterworks] huh?” 

Oh man, he was getting way to attached to this little Lightner, already. ‘Remember’ Spamton thought to himself, ‘remember why you’re doing this, you need that soul.’ 

‘But’ his train of thought continued, ‘What would it hurt to indulge in a little comfort for now?’

And with that thought and Ephie’s lack of response on their part, still sniffling, Spamton approached them, wrapping his arms around Ephie’s now shaking form. They tensed violently, probably convinced he had finally changed his mind and was indeed going to kill them, before finally going slack in his arms, exhausted from, well, everything. 

The two stood there like that for a long while. It had been years since Spamton had hugged anyone, let alone been hugged by someone back. Sure there were the ones who wanted to get into his pants and such but this was the first real hug he had in a very long time. It was oddly comforting for him. 

He’d fully expected them to try to pull away right away and if not then, then surely after awhile. And yet, there she stayed, letting him hold her. 

Soon enough, he realized there was a reason for that. Looking down at them, Spamton realized that Ephie had, in fact, fallen asleep. So that’s why they had gone slack in his arms. 

Scooping them up and carrying them bridal style, Spamton made his way to another of the seemingly endless rooms in this building, this one a bedroom. Upon reaching said room, he gently placed Ephie’s sleeping form on the bed, before covering them up with a few extra blankets. 

He allowed himself a few moments to stare at the now sleeping Lightner before him, taking their appearance in. Short, fluffy hair lay askew on their head, having fallen from its neatly combed position when they were set down horizontally. He had half a mind to touch it. They had a pretty face, he mused, soft round cheeks dotted with star-like freckles. They looked remarkably peaceful now, sleep taking away the fear and anxiety that had contorted their face when awake. 

He could do it now, he thought. He could take their soul. Just a little effort and it would be his and his alone. He could finally see Heaven...

But Ephemeris Callister would die. 

No, it could wait. He might as well enjoy the company of another while he could. After all, what a prize a human Lightner companion was. Certainly worthy of being paraded around, rubbed in the face of his enemies. Yes, he would keep Ephie around, for awhile, at least. 

He glanced back at their sleeping form, still rising and falling slightly with their breathing. And he smiled. For the first time in a long time, he smiled, a genuine little smile.

(deltafell!Spamton x deltafell!Ephie)

------------------------------

short story (likely 2-3 part) for how Spamton meets Ephie in the deltafell au!!

------------------------------

Chapter 1

Two days. Maybe. That was, roughly, how long one Ephemeris Callister had been trapped in this strange Cyber World, as it seemed to be called.

 Truth be told, even they didn't know for sure how long it had been, considering time seemed to pass differently here in the Dark World. What they did know was that they were hungry. Very hungry. And they needed to remedy that, and quickly, lest they lose their strength and remain trapped here forever. 

 Skirting the alleyways, staying in the shadows, Ephemeris did their best to conceal themselves, having learned a couple of times the hard way that the inhabitants of this city were not terribly hospitable to Lightners. 

 As they made their way through the backalleys of the city, they noticed one of many large screens displaying one of countless advertisements. This one in particular caught her eye due to its display of very enticing food, likely given to party goers of this event. 

She read the digital sign, noting the familiar face of the host for this party, Spamton G. Spamton. They had become vaguely aware of this Spamton character over the time they had been there due to his proliferous advertisements adorning almost every inch of the city. Ephemeris came to the correct conclusion that he must be very wealthy and/or powerful here in Cyber City. 

 So, it was obviously a very stupid idea to even think about stealing from him. That thought running through Ephemeris's mind, their overwhelming hunger and the mouthwatering food advertised on the sign ultimately overcame their rational mind and they made the decision to book it for the food. 

 It wasn't hard to find the building hosting the event. It was lit up, bright as any sun, practically screaming, "pick me! I have great food and oblivious rich people!!" 

 Ephemeris, mind you, did not have much experience in the way of theft. They never had been a trouble maker, always sticking to the books, following rules. That being said, however, she had always been a creative and intelligent person, routinely coming up with ingenious solutions to seemingly insurmountable problems- which is precisely why she knew she could pull this off. 

 Enveloping themself in a crowd of party-goers entering the building, they easily infiltrated the event. Now to find some non perishable food, or really, any food, grab it and get the hell out of there.

 Scanning the area, Ephemeris spotted a tray of crackers and assorted breads and made a beeline for it. They quickly looked around, making sure no one was paying any attention to them before shamelessly shoveling bread and crackers into her pockets, and hiding a particularly large loaf of bread under her cape. 

 Grinning wildly and giddy from her success, Ephemeris quietly made her way towards the exit, hoping to slip out the back when suddenly she felt herself being dragged backwards and restrained tightly. 

 'motherfucker', was the sole thought that entered their head as the realization of what was happening dawned on them. 

They had been caught. 

So close. 

 Twisting around to see her captor, Ephemeris couldn't get a good look at them but they appeared to be a bird like monster, likely a guard at this event. Her attention was drawn elsewhere when she overheard another voice over the noise of the crowd telling someone to, "bring the intruder to the boss" 

They figured that they were probably "the intruder" and with this in mind quickly began to panic. 'The boss? Fuck, they had to mean that guy on all the screens and posters, that Spamton guy! 

Oh hell no. no no no nononononono-' 

 Ephemeris's spiraling thoughts were interrupted as they were walked along down a hallway towards what had to be Spamton's office? room? It didn't matter. They were likely going to be dead soon anyways. What did it matter anyway what room they were going to die in? 

  With that thought, the doors to the room at the end of the hallway were swung open by her captor and his companion and Ephemeris was roughly thrown in, to the ground, the doors shutting behind them, just as quickly as they had opened. 

And then they were left alone in the room, with *him*. The most powerful man in Cyber World, Spamton G. Spamton. 

And there he was, standing, leaned against his desk behind him, staring them down, with what was, frankly, a terrifying expression. His pale puppet like face contrasted uncannily with the shark like grin that adorned it. His eyes, red and yellow in color, were sunken in and surrounded by dark circles, making the red blush marks on his cheeks look almost ridiculous by comparison. The fact that even his outfit is intimidating, a finely tailored suit, is not helping matters for Ephemeris. But its the air of pure confidence and malice he exudes that frightens them the most.

 The two stare at each other for what feels like an eternity but could not have been more than a few seconds.   "Well, well, well" he practically drawled out, "if it isn't a Light<Ner, and a [thieving] one at that!" he finishes with a cold laugh. 

Ephemeris is rendered speechless, gawking up at him from their position on the ground, in utter terror. Growing impatient with her lack of reaction, Spamton takes a few steps towards her, something which certainly does elicit a reaction, a fearful one; Ephemeris scoots backwards quickly, in a panic.

Raising an eyebrow in amusement, Spamton continued stalking towards them, ever so slowly, clearly relishing in their fear. After all, why would he let anyone think they could get away with stealing from him? That simply wouldn't do! Soon enough, Ephemeris is backed up against the closed door, with Spamton looming over their still cowering form. He grins down at them, all teeth and ill intent before the smile drops from his face completely. "Get up." It isn't a suggestion. Clambering to her feet, Ephemeris finds quickly that even standing, he still dwarfs her. He turns on his heel and saunters in the opposite direction, speaking as he does so. "So, Light<NER, what made you think you could [just come on in!] and [TAKE TAKE TAKE] from me, hm??" he turns his head back to face Ephemeris at this last part. Terrified but still in survival mode, Ephemeris blurted out their story of how they had ended up here in Cyber City, how they'd evaded death several times and most of all how desperate they were for food. They figured, if they could appeal to his sympathy, they *might* be able to escape this man. Spamton paced over to his desk, leaning against it once more. He looked deep in thought for a moment before he spoke again. "Alright, Light<NER. I'm an [honest man], I'll cut you a [deals so good you won't believe it!]. I'll let you keep your [rapidly shrinking life] IF, and only if, you stay here." he paused, before quietly adding, "with me." Ephemeris stared stupidly at Spamton. Stay? Here? with him?? *Why??* A million questions raced through her head before they were interrupted by Spamton speaking again. "And I'll tell ya what, I'll make sure you *never* go [I'm STARVING] again, yea?" he smiles a little at his own quip, clearly proud of himself. "So, what's it gonna be, huh? You gonna take the [deal]??"

Ephemeris swallowed thickly and nodded, despite being very unclear on what 'staying here with him' entailed. 

“Deal.”

------------------------------

i didn’t proofread this, its late and im not gonna put a whole lot of effort into this,, hopefully its okay tho lol,, anyways, yea, next chapter coming tomorrow sometime!!

fell!Spamton is a successful businessman, the CEO of one of Cyber World’s largest companies.

 Like prime!Spamton, he too was called by a mysterious entity via a phone, giving him advice on how to be successful in business. 

But unlike prime!Spamton, who fell from grace after the calls ceased, this Spamton only continued growing stronger out of pure spite. Anger at the Addisons for abandoning him, anger at the caller for abandoning him, anger at all of Cyber World. It was that spite that fueled his great success.

 He is a cruel leader, ruling the economy of the Dark World with an iron fist. He has little regard for anyone or anything that doesn’t benefit him. 

Which is why it made perfect sense that upon finding a human Lightner, he decided to keep them. After all, their light, would hopefully elevate him to Heaven, a place where he can finally be happy. Despite all he has, it isn’t enough, because he isn’t truly happy. All the money in the world can’t buy happiness, after all. 

So when he finds Ephemeris attempting to steal food from one of his lavish parties, he strikes a deal with them, knowing full well that they would pick the option that benefited him, even if they thought it benefited them. 

The options? Stay with him and do as he asks or be killed. As a powerful figure in Cyber World, he certainly did have the connections necessary to eliminate a pesky Lightner. That being said, he knew that he needed them alive. How else would he take their light? 

Naturally, Ephie chose the option that didn’t involve their demise, staying with Spamton as his ?? what exactly were they supposed to do? Every attempt to ask this question results in avoidance or outright anger. 

All he needed to do was keep them alive until he could take their soul. And yet, with every opportunity that presented itself to do so, he found he couldn’t. The longer this went on, the harder it became to even stomach the idea of killing this human from above. 

They were melting his cold dead heart. Finally, Spamton G. Spamton had a real friend. And at some point he decided he was going to protect this friend, keep them. 

He wasn’t planning on this- growing to care for this Lightner. 

And he sure as hell wasn’t planning on falling in love with said Lightner. 

Meet Web!! They’re a doctor, or at least, the closest thing Cyber World (the internet) has to a doctor!! 

They aren’t super competent but they genuinely do their best! Also like any Addison he always is on the lookout for selling opportunities! 

He’s the one that presents folks with those weird sketchy, health related advertisements! They’re mostly harmless, if a little eccentric!

I’M SORRY @brightgoat I’m incapable of being normal about this-

ANYWAYS, uh, i may have caved and doodled some bits of my character, Ephemeris, hanging out with Click-

Poor Ephie isn’t used to having people come out of nowhere only to try to sell them stuff. They also aren’t used to being comparatively short lol

As always, Clickon K. Addison, belongs to @brightgoat and Ephie belongs to me!!

(PS. in reference to your latest answered ask, MARINA is one of my fav artists lol, Click has excellent music taste)

Ephie Dark World/Cyber World references!!
