Inktober Make Up For Day 5: Galvanised

Inktober make up for day 5: “Galvanised”

For: Cryptid Valley

Hunter’s Journal entry 2: Flatwood Monsters. These ethereal cryptids can often be found floating near flatwood trees. For whatever reason there is only ever one per tree, and since flatwood trees grow far away from eachother, this means they are solitary creatures. No one has ever been able to kill one of these things but based on their metallic exterior it wouldn’t be to rash to say they are potentially man-made, although it is hard to say without actually being able to dissect one. They are extremely protective of their tree and will ward off anyone who gets too close. The flat wood trees on their own are quite interesting. Their glowing red flowers that seem to always be in bloom no matter the season suggests they are potentially magical. They are beautiful and yet their red light makes for an incredibly ominous atmosphere. I once decided to watch one of these trees and it’s flat wood monster. I would often watch as some verity of cryptid, mostly sentient type cryptids, would walk up to the tree. The flat wood monster would pick one of the glowing flowers from the tree and gift it to the cryptid, and then the cryptid would simply walk into the tree as if it were liquid. Where on earth could these trees lead? These creatures are certainly one of the more mysterious phenomenon within the valley. Best stear clear of them.

Sorry, no post today. I contracted worms :/

Pic below cut.

I just want to listen to them sing as they burrow through my flesh.

Also saving this for my friend

(Spoilers for tma season 4-5)

Transmasc Jonah Magnus hc:

The only times Jonah has stolen the body of a woman was during both world wars. Mf knew he wouldn't survive a war, so he took the body of Mary Williams. He used his connections with the Lukas family to get away with it as women weren't allowed to be heads of institutions back then. He stayed as Mary until the war ended, and then he went back to body snatching men. The second and last time was during ww2. He took on the identity of Phyllis Dorothy Jones. Again, he used his connections with the Lukas family to get away with it, and when the war ended, he stole the body of a man. He hated every second of being a woman. It made him horribly disphoric, and he will never do it again.

I will be drawing Mary and Phyllis later.

Tma x mechs crossover au where suddenly, the Toy Soldier and Nikola gain the ability to travel between the two universes and become instant friends. Also Nikola would probably mess with the Mechs crew by pretending to be the toy soldier since she has the same voice as TS and also happens to be an inanimate object. Maybe the Toysoldier would end up being an honorary member of the circus? Jonny’s reaction to seeing nikola would probably end up being 3 words. “Great. There’s two.”

I really need to stop getting au ideas.

Inktober day 1: “quicksilver”

Adding to story of: Horrors and Murders TMA AU

Accompanying story below cut. May be triggering to some audiences.

How long have I been here? The door won’t open, as it has been sealed shut by the metallic liquid that seeps through the corners. I have tried so often to get out of this prison to no avail. There’s a mirror. I touched it but I cannot feel it for everything feels numb. Is that? Is that my face? It’s not mine. It’s not mine. It’s *not* mine. How long have I been staring at the figure in the reflection which I am so sure is not me. Sure it moves with me, but it is not me, it can’t be. I just want to go back home. Let me go back home. The corners are flooded and the door won’t budge. Someone please find me and save me. You are my only hope. Find me before the toxins slowly filling my lungs and skin kill me. Please. Whoever is reading this, I hope I am still alive when you read it. I hope you won’t be trapped here as well. I will not die here. I will not die here.. I will not die here… I’m so tired……

Tbh adore the relationship dynamic that comes whenever someone decides that mike has a crush on Martin. Just like most of the time it’s just Mike pining for Martin, meanwhile martin is just like “dang that sleep deprived archivist over there is hot.” And the Mike gets to cry in a corner.

Just like “I’m short and sleep deprived too ;-;”

I’ve seen like two aus where this is their dynamic and I love it so much.
