Oscar Malevolent - Tumblr Posts
I listened to pt 38 again, and had a flash of inspiration for an AU. What if Arthur had left the stone with Oscar? And Scratch becomes kind of like what John is to Arthur? Just for Oscar. Not sure how it would play out. It would be traumatizing for all involved, though.
So I made an God au for Malevolent here who I got so far
Arthur-God of death & Tragedy
John-Wisdom & Judgement
King in Yellow-God of madness
Faroe-Goddess of water
Addison-Goddess of Revenge
Eddie-God of mechanary
Larson-God of wealth & greed
Marie-Goddess of home & hospitality & fire
Kellin-God of war
Kayne-God of chaos & choices
Yellow-God of Lies
Bella-goddess of childbirth
The trader-God of trade
Scratch-God of Nightmares
Butcher- God of music & hunting
Oscar-God of life
Noel-God of mysteries
Parker-God of patience

i got inspired by how @potato-lord-but-not drew different oscars and wanted to draw a few of my favorite ones as well
also loosely based off of that one sonic plushies picture (i'm gonna put it under the cut)
@koszmarnybudyn @cyanorth @percymawce-arts @ganem-ouchie @mikonez
i love all of your oscars so SO SO MUCH!!!!! !! i love them
Thinking about TMA + Malevolent again and I’ve come to the conclusion that Oscar isn’t an avatar himself but he’s HELLA marked by the Corruption.
I saw an ask on @potato-lord-but-not and now I've gone down a rabbit hole. There's currently a trend going on depicting Oscar, Arthur, and John as the Star, Moon, and Sun respectively. Now! What is Noel? He deserves to be in this. I personally interpreted this as tarot and not just the symbols themselves. Due to this, I'm making the pitch that Noel is Judgement! Here's a breakdown of each boi and their corresponding card: Oscar - The Star XVII - The Star is one that comes immediately after some of the roughest cards in the deck. It represents guiding yourself back to your true purpose and finding meaning in it. It's a pouring into both in inner wisdom and outer. I think this fits Oscar really well considering his turbulent spiritual past and finding a new mission through Arthur. Arthur - The Moon XVIII - OUGH! This one is fun! The Moon represents quite literally "being in the dark". It is the unknowable. It is the trusting of instincts and inner voices. There are things that cannot be known, and you are being pulled around by other sources and motives. Now if THAT doesn't sound like Arthur, I don't know what does. John - The Sun XIX - Now this one I struggled the most with relating but I think I've got it. The Sun itself represents overwhelming goodness and things looking up. Now, I think the meaning that it more applicable in this case is the concept of the "inner child". Especially in recent seasons, John is being able to grow into himself as a separate being than the King in Yellow. He's starting to enjoy things, find his likes and dislikes, and find meaning. Maybe there is not a present state of optimism, but John is beginning to display hope and positivity, seating him nicely with The Sun. Noel - Judgement XX - Judgement is the second to last card in the Major Arcana, representing a nearing of completion. It is taking both the past and the present in order to make the right choice and move forward. It is a renewal and a rebirth. Noel was left with mystery and pain from his past. Now, he is confronted with it with Arthur and things are beginning to come full circle. Additionally, Judgement has depictions of vulnerability in it which is present in both Noel's reveal of his alias and the acceptance of John being the King in Yellow. It should be noted that all of these cards are back-to-back in the deck representing their closeness in meaning and reliance on each other. Have fun with it and let me know your thoughts!
OH, THERE IS SO MUCH IMAGERY IN THIS!! First of all, The Star usually depicts a woman pouring water both into the pond she's kneeling next to and onto the ground representing a grounding into both the physical and inner intuitive worlds. NOW!! Oscar has lost one of his arms, specifically the one that's supposing to be pouring into the self. Both of his feet are pulled back onto the ground as well which to me points to a loss or questioning in faith. A pulling out of the spiritual and reassessing. (Also, I think that's a Sun in the pond as well? Inner voices in the form of John? Maybe <3). What is he leaning into now? What is making him question the faith? Well, take a look at that rosary. Look at The Moon on the rosary. Who's the Moon? Arthur! Arthur has become his new purpose and his new calling. A new religion of sorts. And it's not water that he's pouring out but blood. A sacrifice. A part of himself. The rosary is hoisted up to that large star representing the most inner parts of Oscar which is perfect representation of his innate care and self-sacrificial behavior. POTATO LORD, I LOVE YOU SM. I AM EATING WELL TONIGHT.

we didn’t get it right but, love, we did our best
Two Morning Malevolent Thoughts
1.) I am in full support of Arthur Lester and his 3 boyfriends. I feel like John is really protective over the others. Almost dipping into possessiveness in certain circumstances. Those boys are his and you will not fuck with his boys. I can actively see him snarling at someone on public transport for looking at Oscar’s amputated arm wrong. Anyway, I love him <3
2.) I feel like Noel wouldn’t like fireworks. Very odd headcannon but I don’t think he would. I am in need of community Noel snuggles with the lights down low and music playing during the 4th of July.
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk
I recently read this absolutely amazing Holy Ghosts fic and it sent me down a rabbit hole of thoughts.
Would a vampire Catholic priest be able to get by by drinking the wine after transubstantiation?
What that process is, is a point during Mass in which Catholics believe that the bread and wine on the altar is actually transformed into the body and blood of Christ. So, while the taste and texture is that of wine, the substance itself has changed. If this is the case, then the priest would truly believe that what they’re taking and distributing at communion is the actual blood of Christ and could potentially serve as an alternative.
So, now I’m imagining the height of the mass where Oscar has to lift the chalice and host off the altar, and he is shaky. He is desperately taking deep breaths to try to control himself, willing the sharp teeth edging into the inside of his lip to return where their rightful place. The wine burns going down. Sacred. Holy. As if attempting to burn the disease which plagues him from the inside out. It isn’t that sustainable. It’s probably slowly killing him but it’s better than the alternative.
A Holy Ghosts vampire!oscar x hunter!noel fic
Y’all ever think that Oscar thought of the Virgin Mary as his only actual parent because the orphanage was such hell? Y’all ever think he carries a rosary/wears one constantly because it’s a symbol that she’s always with him and it’s a way for him to connect to her? Consider.
Imagine Oscar yelling “I HAVE A POWER OF GOD, WEIRD BRITISH MAN AND ANOTHER GOD ON MY SIDE” and throwing his lost hand at Mr. Scratch
I didn’t know what to put on John so now he’s wrapped in a curtain.
It is what it is I really don’t know how to draw John, he leaves too much space for imagination since he’s not human so I end up numb, not knowing how to draw him.
Maybe a curtain is not so bad in the end.
I also thought about golden tears but I can’t bear him crying so no.
malevolent liveblog time. i hope oscar becomes arthur’s hot priest boyfriend 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Arthur just made his first human friend in the whole series and is already debating whether or not to sacrifice him to some evil dream monster.
I think it's added onto whenever Oscar is there, John can't communicate with Arthur. Yeah he can talk but it's functionally silent. Arthur can't respond without seeming insane. That's why before they went to get Oscar out of the car John didn't want to get him. Maybe it was to buy time, but I see it as John wanting to keep having a voice. He wants to continue being heard, and being able to be in the conversation. And he wants to be in the conversation with *Arthur*.
It's kinda like that saying if a tree falls with no one to hear it does it really make a sound. If John says anything but out of necessity he's ignored does he really make a sound. I think that's why he was so annoying in the car so he could feel he was effecting something.
Didn't really mean to go this long but John's ma boy.
john’s beef with oscar is hilarious because every thing that oscar does pisses off john, including the fact that he exists in arthur’s vicinity, whereas oscar has no idea that he’s competing with john for arthur’s attentions and affections and just thinks that he’s in a slow burn priest/atheist romance where he finally gets to understand what his faith is for and devote himself fully to one person and their goals, falling for the best and worst parts of the man that he’s utterly drawn in by (because he’s magnetic yes but also because he’s kinda fucking weird and talks oddly at times and doesn’t quite look at him and for sure might be a bit touched in the head but oscar likes him a lot so it’s fine)
meanwhile, john would put oscar through the wood chipper for looking at arthur too long if he could do it without arthur noticing
Oscar Collage!!
Playlist link and reasoning below the cut off like last time
Broken cross to symbolize his loss in faith.
Doily underneath it for purity, and innocence
Alcohol underneath it because unfortunately he's an alchoholic
Stained glass window just for some catholic church symboligy
The tower on the left is supposed to be reminiscent of the tower Alexander was holed up in
Lace curtain also for purity, and innocence. Stained red, because despite Oscar being a very well meaning kind man he sees himself as violent.
Axe for the one Arthur used to chop off his arm. Unstained because to Oscar, Arthur's hands are bloodless, more pure than him. Blood coming off it, since it did make Oscar bleed.
Hammer for the hammer Oscar killed McKenna with. Bloody hand prints, since he sees himself as violent.
Blood pooling from the top, for his shame.
Got some Malevolent coded songs
I love doing song annotation, and recently have been doing more. here's my Malevolent song annots so far

due to the uprise in height controversy, here's my vague height headcanon chart, this is notably human(ish) John.
