Little Warmup Drawing For Today Since I Havent Properly Drawn Something In Like A Week, Anyways Guess

Little warmup drawing for today since I haven’t properly drawn something in like a week, anyways guess who just started watching dungeon meshi‼️ I quite enjoy this silly little guy so far 💖

Side note why does he kinda have the homophobic dog stare

Some Gortash headcanons for the fics I'm writing...

Gortash is older than much of the fandom that ship him like to think. I've given him a birthdate since Larian failed to do so: the 6th of Alturiak, 1447 DR, making him 45 years old during the events of Baldur's Gate 3.

Gortash wasn't a 'hateful child.'

Highly intelligent children have special needs, even when they aren't neurodivergent with insecure emotional attachment, which he was/is. I see him as on the spectrum and extremely high masking. I think he was told to shut up enough times shortly after he learned to talk that he went almost completely non-verbal for a while, and his parents didn't notice or care. When he stopped talking as much, he got into more trouble because he went looking for answers to the questions he wasn't allowed to ask. He started talking more after years of watching Raphael make people magically do what he wanted, sonetimes using nothing more than words.

Gortash can NOT handle rejection.

There are no instances in-game of Gortash being needlessly cruel, of his actions having NO purpose other than the suffering they cause. There are two in which he is excessively cruel, however, and based on the first one I mention, I suspect the second had a similar motivation. His parents rejected him completely, sent him away, and he sentenced them to a fate worse than death. They were probably not happy when he returned, deepening the rejection. They still have a use, promoting him, but Sally is trapped inside her own mind, while Dravo is just a shell.

The other instance of him doing something 'with extreme prejudice' is the Gondians. He's horrible to them, wants them unhappy about everything he has them doing. For this reason, I think that brilliant little boy with a penchant for tinkering dreamed of being a Gondian one day. I think he kept that dream all the way through his enslavement at the House of Hope, and when he was finally free, he tried to join them. And they refused. They rejected him, so he doesn't just use them for his purposes, he ensures that they suffer, too.

I hate "content" culture.

I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.

People used to be excited about the art that other people created.
