Betelgeuse I was hugely inspired by a bunch of artists and fic writers in the fandom, as well as a few monster artists who specialize in combining different creatures into beasts that actually look cohesive. I’m not sure how well I was able to execute the vision here, but I’m really proud of it regardless! DiamondZ, nonbinary-arsonist, stinkyhorsebitch, and arbuzyansky were the main catalysts for this, so definitely take a peek at their work or give them a follow. I was initially going to submit this guy for a staff art show, but I don't want to rush the rest of it, so I'm just going to post what I have finished here. Design notes are under the cut.
In earlier drafts, I was looking into more serpentine-looking designs since Beetlejuice turns into a snake in the film. Some of the concepts I was leaning towards looked like either a lindworm or centipede, but I think mammalian fits Musicaljuice since he’s “softer” in a lot of aspects compared to his film counterpart. I may look into playing with a more snake/bug-like design in the future. Beetlejuice’s overall look is heavily inspired by Chalicotherium goldfussi, which were huge Miocene ungulates that are distantly related to things like rhinos and tapirs. Given that Beetlejuice is super old, I felt like an extinct animal was a proper fit. On a more personal level, I really like the way these guys look and it was easier to rework their body plan into something that looks carnivorous. That, and I wasn’t really vibing with other mammalian body plans, especially because I wanted something that was close in shape to a human without being apelike. Huge herbivores also have larger stomachs, which I feel is a better analogue to Beetlejuice’s body type. You’ll have to pry that man’s curves from my cold, dead hands. All his forms are chubby and soft, and I’ll fight you over it in the Denny’s parking lot. I also added some hyaenid traits, especially for the head shape and teeth. Hyenas are very social animals (like Beej, except no one can see him), and striped hyenas and aardwolves specifically have these tall crests of fur that run down their backs and back legs that they can raise and lower to communicate. I’d argue it’s fitting since Beetlejuice’s hair sticks up at odd angles and communicates his mood (intentional or not). And hyenas laugh. Granted they giggle when they’re stressed, but it still fits. I modeled his stripes off of both species as well. His hind paws, ears, and tail are all based off of those of opossums. Beej is very “trash animal”-coded, and I felt like the opossum traits would fit better with the Chalicotherium body than something like a raccoon or skunk. I felt a little bad about not giving him a ton of bug traits, so I tried to add mandibles, but they just weren’t looking right in earlier design drafts. I gave him a bunch of small eyes to compensate, but making him look buggy wasn’t the only reason for the extra eyes. We know from early drafts of the musical script that Beetlejuice’s last name is Shoggoth. These creatures are mentioned by Lovecraft in Fungi from Yuggoth and At the Mountains of Madness, but I’m not sure if this implies that Beej is a shoggoth, or if it more so refers to him being able to manifest multiple limbs/shapeshift/warp reality like one. In that same vein, the mouth in his chest is mostly to look scary and is just another fun little Lovecraftian trait that I felt was needed. Same to the tendrils, but that’s also a common fandom trait that is pretty much canon (to me) at this point. I might rb this with headcanons later on.

i'm mostly an outsider when it comes to the whole dinosaur thing but i've seen people get real mad when you tell them butterflies are moths or bees are wasps (which is, according to them, impossible because wasps are "evil"). i wanna say the mammal bias is real because no one ever seems to blink an eye at cetaceans being ungulates but for all i know they'd get mad at that too
so many of our attitudes and ideas are reflected in how we use words and I wish people realized that it's actually important to make it clear what words mean what and when those ideas are different from our societal myths

My hc for Laozi/Lao Tzu in LMK is that he's like the Professor Farnsworth of the immortals.
Man's so old, curious, and beyond conventional morality; that he looks like a mad scientist to anyone on the outside. The dude has a pet buffalo-rhino that got loose and took mutliple gods' weapons hostage gotdangit.
Lao Tzu, dragging his mount home: "Azure Bull, you ungrateful ungulate! I put you through college - and this is how you repay me!?" Rhino King: *snorts loudly*
He's canonically one of the oldest "humans" in the universe. Man can't remember everything.
Tumblr media
Picture: Lao Tzu's lab assistants arguing with him after The Burning of Flower Fruit Mountain. /jk
He's not heartless. Just more interested in the results.

the new ancients r cool im not mad at them (again, not for me. but honestly undertides grew on me after i went on my Ancient Hater rant) BUT.
I still say I think the fr devs could get wackier with the ancients lol. I think i woulda liked if the sandsurge had a dimetrodon like fin (a single back fin) instead of dual wing-like fins? (especially since u can barely even see the other fin in the adult poses)
and the last couple ancients (minus undertides) having MOSTLY feline or canine-esque leg plans could be a bit different. bring back that bogsneak/snapper energy or smth. even ungulate it up perhaps. 
(also think they shoulda leaned more into the shark aspects of the sandsurge but THATS JUST ME)
what if i want a flat fuck ancient. where’s my gerrothorax ancient. THEY COULD AND SHOULD GET WEIRDER!!!!

After breakfast Jack and Vlad went over to the Negozio Serafino (the general store). Jack: "Don't worry, Vlad. No one will take Adriano away from us. I have a plan!" (The last time Jack had a plan was to kill Kiyoshi...)
Tumblr media
Vlad left the talking to Jack and browsed through the shop.
Tumblr media
Jack: "Can you please show me your selection of disguises for ungulates?" Vendor: "Mi scusi?" ('Pardon me?') Vlad: -.-
Tumblr media
Meanwhile Saiwa was picking new clothes for them. The ones Ji Ho and Jeb had washed yesterday evening are now wet again...
Tumblr media
Ji Ho and Jeb had fun making music.
Tumblr media
After a while, when Saiwa headed over to Hotel 'Elvis' to 'get a room' for him and Jeb, like Jack had 'suggested', a guy went up the stairs to the concert hall where Ji Ho and Jeb where playing. Ji Ho is a mermaid and his awe-inspiring voice must have attracted him.
Tumblr media
But he also seemed amazed by Jeb's piano playing.
Tumblr media
He introduced himself as 'the roadie' and promised he would contact them. So they exchangend numbers.
Tumblr media
'A volte, sai, non so perché, mi trovo a chiedermi cosa sarà questa paura che ho di perderti. Che cosa c'è dentro di te che ti fa unico e mi fa innamorare di te?'
'You know, sometimes I ask myself: What is this a kind of fear to lose you? What is inside of you that makes you unique And makes me fall in love with you?'
Cosa Sei - Ricchi e Poveri
Last pic is a Login Madness. Exactly the view/angle when I logged in <3 I like the contrast of Ji Ho vs the setting.

Chronic wasting disease was confirmed in ungulates in my region. It's so fucking over for us. Chronic wasting disease is highly contagious, incurable, and can't be killed or treated because it's a prion disease. Not a living thing, a folded protein. Can't be destroyed once it's in the body. It spreads via all parts of an animal, not just the brain. It's in mucus and saliva. Meat and blood. It remains infectious in soil and dead plant matter for years.
It can and it will infect humans. There is no reason to think it can't and won't. Such optimism is a lie or a delusion to prevent panic. This is far worse than mad cow. Far more infectious, impossible to contain, faster-acting.
We are fucked.

Speaking of Jayrockin's specbio works, we're just. Assigning VRAI/VRV characters species from the Jayrockin Extended Universe (their MLP stuff + Runaway to the Stars) because of course we are. I'm imagining that the Tiny Sapient Ungulates/MLP species are also spacefaring in this AU, but still have the near-religious respect for the Alicorns (this is a surprise tool that will help us later!) So far we've got: All Y2KVR characters are sentient AI much like Bip. Y2K Benrey (we've dubbed him as Messenger) takes the form of a larval/"evil" changeling after turning blue, originally looking like a adult/"good" changeling and essentially molting in reverse once he realized he was stuck in the computer indefinitely. Y2K Bubby is definitely a kirin because. He's the FIREwall and MLP kirins... set themselves on fire when angry yeah you get where this is going. Y2K Tommy is a virtual bugferret because family oriented guy. Y2K G-Man probably is also a virtual bugferret, and it's a good job he's virtual and not an ACTUAL bugferret or he'd be all kinds of fucked up from isolation. Y2K Darnold is probably some kind of pony because he just feels like a pony to me. Y2K Forzen is the "human" of the cast, human being in quotes because virtual. Y2K Coomer is a centaur to me for reasons I cannot explain. He just IS. VRAI Benrey + Swap + Da Boss + all non Y2K G-Men are similar to what they describe Discord from MLP as, aka "less a creature of biology than a roiling mass of extra-dimensional limbs". Da Boss is significantly weaker than the others, possibly because the Resonance Cascade of his universe was keeping his powers limited. On the subject of G-Man and his relatives, thinking that non-Y2K Tommies are all magically created creatures because G-Men, being horrific creatures (/pos) from beyond the universe, probably couldn't have kids with normal creatures. I'm thinking they're something similar to Glyph, one of Jayrockin's MLP OCs, in that they're not actually biological creatures but rather sentient constructs of some sort. Unlike Glyph, they don't eat souls. Malcom is a good old MLP unicorn (TOTALLY NOT BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT OUR GAMER BOY'S SONA IS. /lying) Capital M is a changeling, specifically the larval/"evil" form, possibly molting and reaching a proper adult form post-Last Resort. (Not because that's MY sona, definitely not. /lying again)
Sleepless and Doc are, in my mind, a dynamic similar to Pinkie and Brownie from Runaway. They're pair bonded. Doc sees the rest of the Mad Science Team + the other Gordons as platonic family, and he and Sleepless are romantic family. However, Sleepless is in fact not a bugferret. Sleepless is a Skimmer Avian because they just feel right. This means that the Sleepless/Doc relationship probably has some weird bits, considering the bugferret family thing and the avian "not really common to live with partners" thing. This might also explain part of the reason Doc felt so betrayed by Sleepless in In Your Dreams, because not only did Sleepless "side with" GVRV knowing what he did, he also abandoned Doc, leaving him completely alone for the first time. It's a really, REALLY good thing that the Admins picked Doc up when they did. This also makes GVRV promising Doc his family MORE fucked up because while Doc may have THOUGHT he had his family, he would still be completely isolated, even more so than he was before. Freeman is also a bugferret for similar plot reasons to Doc. Admin C, like all Tommies, is a magical construct, but he was made to look like an Alicorn because GVRV's thought process was "If my son looks like what amounts to a deity figure, I can use him to manipulate Equestrian society". Keyword, he was MADE to look like an Alicorn. He ended up getting a little messed up in the construct creation process, so he looks more like a really fucking tall unicorn. He has wings, but even though he's a magical construct, he can't actually fly. GVRV was... not happy about this, at all. The other Admins think Admin C is so fucking cool though because he is literally made of magic and consumes magic to survive and HOLY SHIT he's so epic to them. Admin F is an ACTUAL kirin and not just a virtual one. Same goes for VRAI Bubby. Same goes for Admin P/VRAI Coomer being a centaur, VRAI Forzen and probably admin!Forzen being humans, VRAI/admin! Darnold being ponies, etc. Neo is an interesting case. He's a bugferret who gets most of his social interaction from virtual sources, and they're just. OK with it. Maybe they get overstimulated by crowds and he just prefers to communicate through digital avenues. Player is also a bugferret, but unlike Neo, she (she/her Player for the WIN) is very big on in person contact. This makes the Worldstop stuff even more fucked up. Worldstop Darnold is also a pony, but he may have been modified to have kirin traits, namely the fire thing. Instead of rocket boots, he was given mechanical wings (he's a unicorn). WAIT SHIT I DID NOT REALIZE HOW MUCH I TYPED AGH. SORRY. The hyperfixation and latent special interest just slammed together in our brain and said "Type up so much about HLVRAI x Jayrockin Extended Universe RIGHT NOW." UHHHH. Combining interests. /pos
FUCK YEAAAAA These are great thank you so so so much and if you ever want to tell us more feel free! /g /vpos I would try to add my own thoughts to this but I'm having a bad word day yknow? But I love your headcanons YIPPEEEEEEEE

I mean, don't misunderstand me, as I'm up here on my ungulate of extreme height, if I found out Jill FELL IN LOVE with another woman, I would be, to put it mildly, unimpressed.
And I suppose it would be worse if she were dead, because when she's dead I can't BURN HER CLOTHING or anything crazy like that, i can't even yell at her, I can't do anything to make myself feel heard or express any feeling whatsoever toward her.
I would be hurt, also, yeah, and actually given 18 months to BE mad, i think that would be most of what I was, but boy right out of the gate my first thoughts would be "Oh you fucking COWARD"

TAMIL BOTCHES HEADCANONS!!!!! (AU)
( Plaintext: Tamil botches headcanons!!!)
Because EVERYONE.
Tumblr media
[ ID: Closeup of Jimothan Botch from Smile For Me the game's moustache. It is large and curling upwards. End ID]
YOU TELLING ME THIS MOUSTACHE ISNT SOUTH INDIAN!?😭( sobbing emoji)
( Plaintext: You telling me this moustache isnt south indian!?😭( sobbing emoji) )
--
VANNAKA.....No one says that informally XD (laughing emote) so ..instead...
Hiiii Machi!
Eppa ennadu kadhaia kellunga! ( Now, hear my story!)
OK, first of all, Jimothan Botch isn't ACTUALLY his birth name. He changed it. Why, you ask? Well he watched a crapton of Westerns in the theatres of Chennai in his youth, roaming about with his gang. He was so impressed with those rope-slingin' cowboys, he EVOLVED INTO..
JIMOTHAN "BIG BADONKERHONKEROS" BOTCH
He thought it was cool OKAY?!!!
As for Parsley well it all went wrong when they named the dog Senthilkumaran and him Parsley. Whoops! Can't change what the dog answers to. It's a Kanni breed. His Mom really likes the silly name too so it sticks.
Tumblr media
[ ID: Photo of a brown and black Kanni dog, a sighthound breed that is very lanky and long with a curving stomach and elongated snout. End ID]
I like to think that's like the dog in that one ingame poster but HEJDGG
Either way the dog keeps appearing around the Habiticians even if they're in different places, suspiciously before significant events, like an omen. It remains to be seen if Tim Tam and their "shortcuts"( AKA TELEPORTING) is somehow involved in this.
On account of Parsley continuing to be a difficult child for Jim to raise though, for his shark-like biters, explosive hellfire surge Moments( due to demonic heritage on his Mama's side ) as well as his thieving tendencies etc-- He calls Pars "Rowdy Ranga" sometimes, MY MOM CALLS ME THAT LMAOOOOOO
Since his Mom's a Carnivorous Ungulate Monsterthing I think it'd be SO SWEET if she called him like " attukutti " in rare affectionate moments. That means " goat kid" :] ( smile emote)
--
Yeah, Parsley had it kind of Rough too. His Mom( I'm still figuring out her 'human' name. Her real one would make mortal's tongues go mad twisting in their mouths trying to form a language they were never meant to speak ) and Dad( or "Appa" HEEHE. Hes just a. Guy. Who coincidentally keeps crushing for vampires and demons I GUESS ) really fell into a disaster of a time raising him. They could never agree on what he should do, how he should be raised, where he should go, what to learn...
An example of that is that his Mom is Extremely Stern, being a prosecutor in The Underworld Court and stuff where things are generally corrupt and sometimes draconian. She's been trying to make a change in it, and that requires that sort of strength. Jim, though, Jim is casual and forgiving to the point where his kid later grows up to be a callous ( and packed with guilt for it. You know whats in that ham's suitcase? Baggage. ) sort, having spent much time with him.
So yeah, his parents split( though they were not married), and Pars' core of self hatred due to it never quite heals fully.
--
I'm kind of getting off course but BACK TO IT
But yeah Parmesan Bunches does a lot of stuff ( forgery of papers, still stealing stuff, lying whenever, procrasinating for extremely long times to everyone's detriment, bribing etc...TBH it's not like EXTREMELY bad stuff. It's just that taking this route a lot causes problems anyway, and in this case gives him low self- confidence ) that'd make his parents Displeased in the process of trying to build his own identity through all that turmoil and be independent for himself, though he buckles under his own pressure as well. Sure he's winning every case he takes on through the shady means. But at what cost??
He's got Enemies. And Mom's one of them.
[ This is all still W.I.P BTW so as I get more info things may change!]
Jimothan at most shows his disappointment and expecting an apology through a tried and true tradition.....
"No earthquake felt in my house. The tectonic plates know very well that if they shift a little, my mom will place Rava upma in them as well."
-- courtesy of @i-hate-upma
(Plaintext: "No earthquake felt in my house. The tectonic plates know very well that if they shift a little, my mom will place Rava upma in them as well." -- courtesy of @ i-hate-upma )
That's right. BEHOLD. The only Edible food Jimbo can make.
Tumblr media
[ ID: Photo of Upma, a thick porridge packed with vegetables, lentils, nuts, herbs etc. It looks like a somewhat solid lump. End ID]
CRY CRY. It's UPMA!
I'm kind of sad he'll never be able to taste the goodness that is Curry instead BUTTT since he's friends with Kamal, and highly likely he's visited his house-- He can get some Paro Manxho( Pigeon meat curry) there.. it's not exactly chicken but hot curry is hot curry! I've heard it is hard to make and since they're in the US, the ingredients would be harder to procure too. I'm sure Pars is flattered someone would take all that trouble, jsjsahsjsjd. Stuff like this is why him and Kam are such close friends. They aren't just hi-hello-bye. They're deep, guys. Going all the way back to when Pars was a tee-and-baggy churdidar-pants wearing stressed college student, roped in as a guitar player for ten-mice-in-a-cool-leather-jacket wearing stressed college student Kamal's band. Coming all the way back to deciding to stay longer in this creepy "self-help resort" hes definitely getting a bad feeling about Not Sueing To The Ground Instantly, because...Kamal's there. Pars calls him machan, so that should tell you everything. ;-) (winky emote)
--
I HAVE TOO MANY IDEAS JUST TO PUT IN THIS ONE POST DHJDJD
(Plaintext: I have too many ideas just to put in this one post dhjdjd)
So I'll end on some design ideas!! Not quite solid yet but here ya go.
Tumblr media
[ ID: Traditional fanart sketch of the artists interpretation of Jimothan Botch. The style is semi realistic. It's mostly a headshot with a fading bust. He is a skinny aging man with salt-and-pepper hair sweeping across his forehead and growing down the sides of his face in a more orderly manner. His eyes are squinty and he has a long, slightly big nose. He smiles, showing some wrinkling, his upper lip totally covered by a very big moustache that curls at the tips, fanning into even more curls at their bottom edges. He wears a bartender's suit and tie. End ID]
You bet he twirls off that thing and laughs LIKE REALLY LOUDLY coughing fit fucking show off and Habit is so in love with him SHUT UP SHUT UP Even if they are good cowbuddies their level of homoeroticism is YEEHAW
BUFF PARSLEY JUMPSCARE MOTHERFUCKER
( Plaintext: Buff Parsley Jumpscare Motherfucker )
I will use He/Ham pronouns for Pars in this one and explain why later! Actually JK I'll tell you now. He accidentally said " my pronouns are he/ham" but he found he suspiciously very much liked being called a ham and not a man all the time and so it came to be!
Tumblr media
[ ID: Traditional fanart sketch of the artists interpretation of Parsley Botch. The style is semi realistic. The main sketch is colored digitally and stops at the starting of the thighs. Parsley is a strongly built person with a stocky upper body. His skintone is a warm medium brown. Hams face is like a softly edged downwards rectangle. He has red-sclera eyes with somewhat prominent brows. Nose is similar to Jimothan's. Along with regular teeth ham has two bigger gold-plated canines. Parsleys red hair is a sticking-out bedheaded mess that falls to his shoulders. Some are cut in a more orderly way down the sides of his face. He wears a light red shirt, darker tie, dark blue business suit.
His hands are behind his back and he looks off to the side and frowns, looking dejected. Beside ham, coming from ham, emanating soft yellow waves with a red centre hold the lyrics to " heaven knows I'm miserable now" by The Smiths. It says "In my life...why do I give valuable time....to people who don't care if I live or die?"
A few more reference sketches are seen beside the main sketch, left side. One is of canon Parsley as a head saying 'bro' and a note of his head shape being a square. More below is written ' Comic book inspo" and a cut-off "mutton chops". Beside these there's Parsley's frowning mouth drawn, teeth showing, regular and gold-plated. "Smile?" is written questioningly. At the bottom is a digital exported and blurred canon sprite of Parsley. End ID]
OK weird story. Muscled Parsnip first caught my imagination with, a, um, this story where he crushed a suitcase with his abs in court or something like that. I'm pretty sure it was written as fetish stuff now( I didn't know!) but GOD was it HILARIOUS to read. So there you go. Demonic metabolism, or something. I would play the drums on his chest. Dum Dum Dum. Or smash Randy's goddamed pickle jar( actually tried this in game, didn't work).
