GRIEF

Tarasque learns of the Papas' demise

It's brutal news, especially with Primo having been his biggest anchor since his very first days in the Ministry.

Dewdrop's words will stick - as the head of security, he should have known, should have done something, should have stuck with them every single minute just in case, he thinks. Doesn't matter that the very top of the Church made sure no word got out until the deed was done. Made sure nobody who would try to stop things would be around.

Also, ever wondered why Dewdrop's horn fell off on-stage one time? Yeah, that's why :] It held on a while but had to break eventually after sustaining so much damage and suffering Dewdrop's headbanging and jumping around during shows.

LONG TIME NO SEE TARASQUE HUH #GBFHGBH twas about time i did something with this lad again #started this back in june and finally finished it so this comic is kinda all over the place #and it feels like the artstyle changes a billion times through the ten pages but hopefully its just how it feels to me as the artist #and it aint too noticeable or at least isn't a bother while reading #anyway hi ghost fandom i'm still here lmfao #was so nice to do something w tarasque again i've missed him #hope yall like it ♥

another take on the tarasque - trying out the technique of using a stain over my usual underglaze to bring out texture

Since you've sent me a ranking, allow me to send you one - three favorite legendary creatures?

Oh man that's a tough one, I sure love creechur. But (mario voice) here we go!

1- The Tarasque.

Such an absurd creature, an ancient pre-christian gallic myth that survived all this time, with the story of its demise still being celebrated in the original village where it supposedly happened to this day? Very difficult for me not to be completely entranced by this strange beast and having my heart filled with affection for it.

I mean. Just look at it. ♥

2- Dragons

Though the Tarasque technically is a dragon, I do have to add them to that list, the more common ones people think of when they hear that name.

It's an undying classic, powerful and classy, and you can absolutely never go wrong with those beasts. They always slap. Never fails.

3- The Monkfish (or Sea Monk)

I'm just. I'm fucking. Biaised towards that poor pathetic creature. Like. I mean. Just look at this fucking thing.

This is a monk fish. It was supposedly found somewhere in the 1500s. Apparently it does fill some sort of ecclesiastic role to bless the mermaids down there or something. Like I'm being straight up this is what they said back then. THis is so fucking funny to me. My friends and I found out about it in a book about sea myths on a vacation and we cried laughing at him for the whole week we were there and now he's legitimately our symbol.

I'm talking 'printing a flag with this goddamn drawing on it' symbol. Taking this flag wherever we go and putting it up proudly like we're the monkfish nation.

Monkfish truthers rise up. We out there.

#asks #creatures #tarasque #dragons #monkfish #mine #one of those is extremely usual compared to the others but what can i say #a third of me is ace the rest is having a weird attachement to really weird things #anyway yeah. tarasque numero uno campeao do mundo #and yes the tarasque being one of my fav beasts is why i have a tarasque oc #as another french dragon theres also the graoully but it doesnt fare in front of the ancient beautiful silliness of the tarasque #ty for the ask this was fun!!#i dont think i ever got to ramble about the fucking monkfish before this was nice hGHFBGHGB
