merle is good for a lot of choice grunkle stan lines
[ID: art of Merle from The Adventure Zone. He’s a dwarf with dark brown skin, with a curly gray beard braided with flowers. He’s pointing a thumb at himself, angrily shouting: “The only wrinkly monster that harasses my family is me!” End ID.]
and i can’t do anything to save it
[ID: a two-panel comic featuring Lucretia and the silhouettes of Taako, Magnus and Merle. It is in primary colors (blue, red and yellow)
Lucretia, a young Black woman with round glasses, and locs in a messy low-bun. While she is wearing a deep red coat similar to the background, she is noticeably drawn in deep, cobalt blue.
In the first panel, she is looking out of a yellow window with deep concern, while the Tres Horny Boys seem to be looking at each other in confusion. Text above her reads: “Have you ever seen”
In the second panel, she is looking up in both awe and horror. The reflection on her glasses show what she was looking at: the eyes of the Hunger, staring back at her. The text above her continues from the first statement: “- A planet DYING?”
End description.]
I’ve been relistening to TAZ Balance and I forgot how much I loved Mr John Hunger. I’ve always imagine him sort of decaying and becoming more like the hunger looks wise?? Like with the whole black opal vibe. Idk I just love this guy
ID: Three sketches of John, a light-skinned older man with short, slicked back, greying hair and blue eyes with dark sclera. He's wearing a collared shirt and looks to the left. 1: Dark tendrils flecked with blue, purple, and green drip down his forehead to his chin, covering his neck. 2: Black opal covers half his face, leaving only part of his forehead, nose, and mouth unmarred. It is streaked with blue, red, yellow, and green. 3: Darkness streaked with reds, oranges, and yellows covers both sides of his face and drips from his nostrils, leaving the middle mostly free.
Beside each image is a corresponding gemstone whose colors match John's decay. End ID.
some more assorted taz b doodles from my relisten
does she know i love her
[ID: two images. The first is a colored sketch of Lup looking intently at the camera as if speaking. Above her is the text post by @/themanslayer “Say this with me. Manifest it. Make it real. ‘I am not harmed by fire or explosives.’ Say that outloud. Remember it. The only thing that’s stopping you is your own head. Never stop grinding”. The second image is an uncolored sketch of Lup with her arms crossed being scolded by Davenport. Davenport says “Did you tell Magnus to run through fire?” Lup responds “I did no such thing” (a lie). End ID.]
Sorry I only have time for memes
i’ll blow myself up just to hold u again
i wrote a short taz/homestuck crossover back in 2018, just the IPRE crew running into Earth C, and obviously it’s not up to my current standards but i’m still not sure i’ll ever write a joke funnier than this one
right at the beginning:
and then, lup meeting terezi:
and finally, right at the end, having had a whole year to investigate:
Ok, I Don't Even Go Here re: Homestuck, but this is a QUALITY crossover joke.
Hurley: I could spend the night, like, teaching you guys about battlewagon racing, or you could spend the night putting sequins on your safety harness.
Magnus: [loudly sucks his teeth]
Taako: I vote sequins.
Magnus: Yeah, I’m going to go with sequins.
[Image description: black and white art of Tres Horny Boys and Hurley from The Adventure Zone. They're in Hurley's house, of which the floor is covered in blueprints and craft supplies. Hurley's a freckled halfling, sitting on the ground and smiling amusedly at Merle. He's wearing his owl mask and attaching sequins to his safety harness with a glue gun.
Taako, an elf with long straight hair, is smiling and holding up a mirror to Magnus. Magnus, who already wears a harness with sequins, smiles and gives a thumbs up. His bear mask is on the side of his face, and Taako's mongoose mask is tied to his wizard hat. It's nighttime outside. End ID.]

I don’t know how but this post is funnier in night mode
très spooky boys
[ID: Stylized drawings of Magnus, Taako, and Merle rendered mostly in bright red with stark shadows in black and details in neon green. The first shows a bust of Magnus, a man with several scars on his face, wearing a hooded red robe with green trim. His iris is also green, while the rest of him is red. He covers most of his face with one hand, looking quietly horrified. He is surround by what appears to be some kind of flowing liquid or ectoplasm, outline with thin, green, squiggly lines. The second shows Taako, an elf with long, straight hair wearing a wizard hat and a thick scarf. Most of his face is hidden by the green umbrella he holds up in front of him, with only one of his green eyes visible. The handle of the umbrella is black with simplified green eyes on it. It is surrounded by the squiggly green lines. Finally, the last shows Merle, a dwarf whose eyes are cut off by the frame of the image. His thick, braided beard has green flowers in it, and one of his arms is made of intertwining vines or branches that sprout up from the flesh near his elbow. This arm is also green and surrounded by the strange fluid. End ID.]

From Sep 2022.
Sketchie for a haunted AU I never got around to fleshing out.
gnashing my teeth. the nested time loops in taz balance. the final cycle of the stolen century, they believe the grand relics are their bitter victory — their long overdue key to never letting the loop restart, never forcing them to do this all over again. they believe that with this sacrifice, they finally have the cycles conquered — and then, what do our heroes do, but lose their memories? they have to start from square one. relearn who they are. rebuild their bonds with each other that spent a whole century cultivating.
us, the audience, who are starting the podcast with episode one — we missed that story the first time you lived it. the first time you told it.
so, tell us again.
tell us how you met each other, tell us about your job. tell us the the destruction that no one but you survived, tell us about the way it shaped you. tell us all the hidden depths of the mongoose — tell us about your friends, the two lovers who cheated death together. tell us how you grew closer, throughout all of this.
tell us about the person who saw all of existence, who glimpsed the meaning of it all. tell us about the restless souls, the dissatisfaction — and how you reached out to that person at the center of it. tell us about a kingdom of robots. tell us, maybe don't admit it quite yet, but show us: the three of you growing closer still.
tell us a story about a time loop in a time loop in a time loop. where the apocalypse never ends, but your death never sticks. tell us how it affected you — for your actions to have no consequence, until they did. tell us how you'd do anything to stop the cataclysm, to break the loop, and tell us how for that, you were judged. tell us how you did good recklessly.
and tell us about the twins, tell us about the liches, about what you're willing to sacrifice. tell us how you leapt into danger to save a friend. tell us how you let yourself be saved. tell us everything you've finally had time to (re)-learn: how to care for each other and be cared for. tell us how you learnt to trust. tell us how, finally, you remember the mistakes you made last time.
we, the audience, missed that story the first time you told it. we need you to tell it again — but this time, this one special time, you'll have a shot at a better ending.
so tell us this story about time loops. tell us this story about stories.
