Also bonus because I’m sure the Boiling Isles equivalent of pumpkins are like, creatures that steal bones if they’re not locked up at night:

This has been sitting in my drafts for a while. Some angst for my soul.

Recovery arc is going well.

Somehow in my “let’s see how terrible Belos can get” fic, I (the writer making him do these actions) manage to be surprised by how terrible he (the character whose actions are dependent on my writing) can get. This has happened several times.

I don’t know what to call this phenomenon, but it is fascinating that he still manages to surprise the omniscient god his existence is dependent on.

Redraw of this image from a few months ago. My art style has definitely improved :)

Some other doodles continuing from this post because Bill has entered my brain and refused to leave (someone get him out of here he’s really cluttering the place up).

Featuring Philip becoming an underpaid Henchmaniac (he gets compensated in nice suits and naps), and some first try designs of the twins.

I’m not immune to the Gravity Falls hype.

First in our lineup of Grimwalkers is Redemption Wittebane! He goes by Red for short.

The first successful Grimwalker after Caleb’s death, Red was raised as Belos’ son from the age of eight to about twenty. From a young age he was told his uncle Caleb abandoned his family and that Caleb’s selfishness had ruined his father’s life. Internalizing the burden of being the big brother (despite being a teenager), Red vowed never to leave Belos, no matter what.

Red took after Belos quite a lot, just as petty and manipulative, often throwing Belos’ grief back in his face to serve his own ends. He had a similar disdain for witch and demon lives, seeing himself as above the denizens of hell (an impression only fed by Belos’ codependency and pseudo worship of the memory of his brother).

Belos thought of Red as his second chance at saving Caleb, his “Redemption” (Belos has never been particularly clever with names but he thinks he’s hilarious). He was heavily codependent and parentified Red, but at the same time was a very hands off, indulgent parent, which led Red to a sense of entitlement and superiority.

They got along nicely up until the point Red found out that Belos had killed Caleb for leaving him. Red never planned on leaving Belos- the opposite- but learning about Caleb “being stolen away” and killed made him realize just how easily Belos could kill him too. The final straw was learning about the Grimwalkers, and learning he himself was a replacement, too.

In an attempt to make sure Belos wouldn’t kill him, Red struck first and tried to kill his father. This ended. Very badly, with Red lamenting his failure and stating he only lashed out because he feared Belos would get rid of him and try again.

Thinking about the fact that Belos named his first Grimwalker Redemption and his second one Obedience. Really says a lot.

What if I said Caleb is Evan Hansen coded. What then.
