Morning Routine (Sketchtember 2024 - Day 8)

Ismaire:
This is Samak and Cole again, although you'll notice that just in the few days since the last HH post, Casting Director Choi has changed their designs a bit, lol.
Being a honey rancher is not an easy job by any means, and this alien desert doesn't provide any easy conditions. But sometimes there are cool moments, like when you get to pet the giant fluffy bees and wake them up for the morning. (Getting covered in their scent puts the rest of the bees at ease so you can go harvest the produce. Also, it's fun~)

Grieving (Sketchtember 2024 - Day 12)
[Rara Avis]
Choi: I promise, Izzy and I didn't intend Day 12's prompt to bring twice as many child deaths in the pictures. But I do gotta say... I'm glad that we're really showing off the "dark" in dark fantasy in our works now ✨🌑✨
The royal siblings Goldie and Sand grew up in happiness, preparing for a life of responsibility and duty, until the assassination of their entire family line. Goldie (26) and Sand (23) found themselves orphaned, grieving, and wandering into the wild countryside. This particular scene is timed around 2-3 weeks since their loss, after they encountered a mysterious scoundrel, whom they contracted to lead them the way to a remote dwarven stronghold.
When everyone turned to sleep that night, Goldie was left alone with her grief while carrying the weight of the last remaining royal bloodline. You can only imagine the ruminating it would take for her to then see a hallucination of her dead baby brother in the mirror.
And it doesn't get easier from there.
Worst Fear (Sketchtember 2024 - Day 13)
[Hollow Hearts]
Choi: This is a recreation of an angsty shower scene that I wanted to do of Samak. Back when it was Tegaki E, I doodled a moody composition of Samak just brooding under a running shower. Unfortunately, I couldn't do very much to expand on it because a few users started commenting on it and started taking it to very irrelevant story territories. Samak back then just had the quality of being a thirst trap in RP circles, I guess 🤷🏻
Anyway! I'm happy how this turned out as far as redraws go. It certainly was cathartic to draw Samak crying out of anger, rather than lying back passive and depressed.
Now as for the prompt: Samak's worst fear was losing his boyfriend, Cole. Which happened. And not only did it happen, it was in the worst possible way - at Samak's own hands. Now he has to live with that, and it haunts him all the time. And that was all just the *beginning* of Samak's story.
How exactly that all shook out, and what happens next, you'll have to stay tuned to see...!
A little break from the Sketchtember prompts for a sec. Last couple days got busy so I'm playing catch up x_x
We've been playing around with Unvale.io as a way to organize our characters (sorta like Toyhou.se). The first time we fiddled around with it, it was neat to see pages for a gallery, traits, and even a written section for an OC. I just posted a drabble in there, so go check it out if you wanna read some pre-teen intro shenanigans :') MyungJin's kind of a butt, but what 12-year-old isn't?
