#Story Slug

[palossssssand]

Hey there! Are there any other beasts in slug city or is it just the orchid and electric ones?

there are other beasts !! Smooks has one, it's made of paint! Best seen in this image

Delta and Oster and Co. have them too, Delta's is a round-ish beast with many leg and eyes surrounding its entire body with waterfall-like tears. Oster and Co's is one with multiple heads, each representing one of the "main" alters. I would like to heavily rework these both design-wise and concept-wise. Here's old art of them!

#slug city #delta #asks #my art #my ocs #oster #thank you for asking!! #I like the concept of delta's I would just like to redesign it #I like the concept of oster and co's too but I would need to figure out if its. iffy. in terms of depiction of plurality #obviously the beasts are not supposed to literally represent '''the illness''' that each character with a beast has #it IS a manifestation of their problems and issues And societal stigma #which I gotta find out how to make that clearer in the story progression or find a better metaphorical concept for them

Molly's Future Mishaps: A story of time traveling sea slugs!

Molly's Future Mishaps is a story about sea slugs, time travel, and friendship! In the year 2000, a meteor collided with Earth, causing humanity's end… but to preserve any life at all, humans sent a bunch of sea slugs to Jupiter's moon, Europa! From there…

…The slugs survived and evolved, and soon enough, they uncovered the power of time travel! But this tech is still in it's infancy, and is VERY dangerous… but that shouldn't be a problem, right?

Molly is a lazy soda-loving slug who spent their whole life doing absolutely nothing. Literally. But as they meet new folks and is thrown into a job at the end of time itself, Molly begins to finally feel alive for the first time and experience the power of friendship

Jo is from 1000 years into the future. He stole a time travel device in order to fix a mistake, but instead became the accidental catalyst of the whole story. He's a HUGE workaholic, but when given a little kindness he begins to finally unwind

Leaf is a plant researcher tasked to study the long-extinct Earth… little did she know it would become her biggest passion! Self-composed on the outside, but really just a burnt out gifted kid given sudden worldwide fame. Her views on time travel's dangers are much more lax…

At the end of time itself, the three slugs get into various shenanigans and situations… from visiting the Earth in search of a soda, getting stuck in a time loop, running into your coworker's child self, to many many more of varying degrees of danger!!

The story is about halfway done, with almost 1000 total pages drawn… all done by me alone with my mouse! Chapters come out about once a month, so if you are interested, give it a look! (And keep an eye out for the physical release Kickstarter this year!)

Genshin 4.2 spoilers and all of this is just speculation but...

Neuvillette's character story suggesting that the Melusines may be a new species of hydro vishap (which seems to be corroborated at least in some part by the Wild Fairy questline) is extremely wild in terms of overall lore impact.

Because either it means that something from the Abyss (or at least something of Rhinedottir's making) was able to harness the energy of the Light Realm, traditionally only accessible to pure elemental beings and almost always considered diametrically opposed to the Abyss Realm...

Or the body that the Melusines spawned from was originally a Light Realm dragon before Rhinedottir got a hold of it and used it as a vessel for Elynas, and the Melusines are actually a form of hydro vishap because biologically they are descendant from a hydro dragon.

"Neuvillette is the melusines' dad" jokes looking alarmingly canon-adjacent at the moment... 😱

Woah dang, waking up to 99+ notifs on tumblr almost always means that an old Homestuck piece is going around again... imagine my delighted surprise to see it was all notifs about Soli! That was a great thing to wake up to. Felt an actual flutter in my chest. Thank you so much, everyone! And apologies for how Elias' hair keeps subtly changing. You always kind of figure out exactly how a character looks and how to draw them as you go along with sequential art. It, funny enough, largely comes from figuring out their acting (so lots and lots of different angles and features that need to shift/change slightly to carry the weight of looking like they should feel, for lack of a better way to describe it ) At any rate, glad to see people are excited for chapter 3! next update will be next week, and will be a two page spread.

#solivaga #yackin #it isn't the first time by a long shot that I've woken up to see my inbox full of soli notifs #but that usually only happens when I'm actively updating the comic or have posted a new big fancy illustration #that dies down considerably ofc when we're at a between chapter pause because old fandom work has the power to stay searchably relevant #and it's probably common for comic authors to worry that if they don't get back to updating ASAP they'll come back to no audience #so coming back with the main storyline of chapter 3 and a couple of preview snippets filling my notifs for this project that I love so much #definitely made me happy #there's just a joy in sharing something important to you and introducing characters and their stories to others #ofc I say all of this and have been going through my askbox like an absolute slug lol #if I could choose the world's most niche and specific superpower I would ask to split my creative attention when i'm really deep in it #but my brain demands to Live in the Scene when writing it or drawing very acting-heavy or important scenes #and I become Slug #Rat slug #new animal for the veil

A design consisting of elements from sea slugs and horses.

Like slugs, they eat about anything, including carrion. And due to their size, they eat quite a bit. In some areas of the world, people revere these creatures as holy beings. They say the progenitor goddess of water took care of many Gastrolux in the distant past, as she loved them dearly. Descendants of the ones she cared for are highly valued.

Really felt like drawing Delta scaling a building

#unfortunately there’s no juicy lore behind this particular scene. I just wanted to draw it #I shall find a place in the story for it since all the scenes in my head aren’t tied to much anyways #slug city #delta #my art #sea urchin #my ocs #idk what it is about delta that makes her so fun and cathartic to draw #I’ve been thinking about her so much #anyways I’m really happy with this rendering style #anthro

Slug and Other Stories by Megan Milks

goodreads

A woman metamorphoses into a giant slug; another quite literally eats her heart out; a wasp falls in love with an orchid; and hair starts sprouting from the walls. These stories slip and slide between genres--from video games to fan fiction, avant-garde theater to choose-your-own-adventure--as characters cycle through giddying changes in gender, physiology, species, and identity. Collapsing boundaries between bodies and forms, these fictions interrogate the visceral, gross, and absurd.

Mod opinion: I haven't read this yet, but weird anthologies that deal with gender are always soooo swag.

the meat room reminds me of hunter so i just kinda drew them standing in there

meat room in question and sketch under cut

i posed them like that cause i don’t know any poses but i retroactively realized they shouldve been standing there just staring at the camera

he couldn’t do it, got too amused by the meat sign

#my hunter is so sillay #i call them baloney sometimes or bologna #it’s a long story actually it’s kinda short but only makes sense to me. specifically in my brain #so whenever i see something meat related im just like oh my god. hunter rain world #she has transmasc swagger btw. all pronoun? jm making my slugs all pronoun. right now #pansear was so right for that. all pronoun forever. i love all pronoun. every pronoun. all of them #doodle #rain world #rainworld #rw hunter

a starstruck odyssey is for lovers

#more than acofaf even. the love story of the wurst is what dreams are made of #emilymurph sitting next to each other...skip straightest man ever prince of alien slugs learning to be free bc of the crew...gnosis... #best on average npcs. lucienne plug bambi leroux the butch at the space station fuckin space heiress trust fund baby bajar crunch moon jone #and this is not to say ANYTHING of how good the characters are. #they could keep making d20 seasons forever and starstruck will always be a cut above the rest because of how fucking good the setting is #like with crown of candy even tho i loved it sm i feel like some politics were discarded in favor of the others; all out war was eh to me #the build up to a war tho? now that's interesting that's where the juice is basically i wanted asoiaf book one vibes with this cast but #that's a matter of personal preference! i don't feel like acoc did the most that could've been done with a “politics” campaign #dimension 20 #dropout.tv #a starstruck odyssey #because of their deep investment in the world and the genre it never feels like starstruck couldn't do anything. it feels limitless! #season two...god if they never do one that'd be such wasted capability #ik fantasy high is so beloved and it is a beautiful lasagna of time and playing style but if i could get multiple seasons w starstruck... #the thing that makes asoiaf asoiaf is that we have a similar level of insight into the minds of baddies like the lannisters as we do into #the minds of the clean jesus allegory starks. and in acoc the “worst” character we got from the heroes was lapin n even he was aligned #to the rocks' cause. saccharina WAS a rocks -- that was her whole deal -- and even then she wasn't a morally reproachable character bc #she was right! i wanted acoc to be down and dirty and when they said ravening would be i was excited but even that turned out to be them #destroying a secret cult which was going to kill the world. no really down low shenanigans!
