btw my actual dream steve robin (+ eddie) job is that in the wake of the welcome to HELL i mean hawkins fiasco and in an effort to both boost town morale and benefit from tourism plus governmental aid they ship in a metric shitload of materials and turn lover's lake into a sort of day camp combined summer attraction camping ground. gift shop boat rentals a little area to eat a get back to nature service that's literally just babysitting for a few hours even a little hiking lake tour because it's pretty out there i think :). and as is the nature of humanity a significant amount of people going to hawkins of all places is because it's the place with the mysterious spooky happenings and now there's a LAKE well obviously they've got a lake monster obviously...
so it becomes this sort of unofficial roadside attraction and the kids decide to make it their mission to prove there IS a lake monster (for reasons ranging from "we need to kill it it could be the upside down!!!" to "we need to save it and be it's FRIEND!!! IT'S A DINOSAUR A LIVING LEGEND!!") and like sure maybe the only reason steve applied for the job is to keep an eye on things bc it IS lover's lake but he's also got lifeguard experience plus he never got to camp as a kid.. :(. eddie works the gift shop bc he's insane but the right amount of insane to work at a roadside attraction giftshop and get people to buy little keychains and bullshit merch including the t-shirts HE makes and sells on the side that's like "i saw the HAWKINS LAKE MONSTER" (eddie is also the one who comes up with 99% of the mythology not because of dnd creativeness he just really believes it). robin and steve trade off on the tours + kiosk food service and steve more often than not is the one leading around a group of 11 year olds telling them the most child inappropriate stories known to man because it's the only thing that keeps them quiet they all think he's in like. the mafia and a world renown monster hunter. steve always puts a line of zinc sunscreen on eddie's cheeks and then by the middle of the day there will inevitably be a little bit on his own as well. This is my beautiful world.

In all seriousness I am just really really bad at figuring out which direction is left/right when drawing and absolutely nothing has been able to save me from this in years and I did not notice. Oops!

salutations. would you like to explain the deal wktb the moth and compass guys they look very polite
moth and compass! the project I've been working on with @natdrinkstea this year-and-some!!
I believe I've introduced our dramatis personae — Moth, an Inquisitive Young Protagonist; Goodfellow, a Ghost; Luna, a Lighthouse-Keeper; and Peregrine, an Ordinary Cat — a few times before, but I still don't think we've every really talked about the story!
and that is because it has taken. quite some time to actually figure out what Goeth On in moth and compass proper. it's a mystery-fantasy, that'll probably be best told as a scrapbook or a puzzle game or a thing along those lines*, and a somewhat purposefully-nostalgic ghost story. it's everyday magic and the haunted sea and learning to look beyond what you think is there and bubblegum pop road trips and creepy creatures in the shadows and the kind of navigational equipment that, if you use it just right, might take you places you'd never otherwise be able to see...

(Hands you my squidiots (squid idiots))
So I have a Splatoon AU...
The tl;dr is that Squim (Squid Tim) fell into a vat of kraken goo. Or syringes. Or goo-filled syringes. And now he is like this. :/!! Which is probably why that special was outlawed after the first Splatoon.

life is going to an art museum only to have something happen that forces you to distract yourself in the world of art and when it comes time to think you try to think of anything but yourself and you land yourself in a rabbit hole of fandom mischaracterization that went identified too late and is engraved in the thoughts of many, only noticed by few, and soon to be hopefully captured on a digital canvas—a free place for the muddled thoughts between my head and my pencil to live.
