Creepy And Cute

"It's still beautiful, even after all these years."

10 years ago a little game was released that became bigger than anyone could ever believe. It brought a lot of us together through these years. It taught us a lot. Meant a lot. 10 years later, it's still beautiful.

10 years later, you're still you.

Okay at some point I'm going to go through the tags and organize the posts a bit better. That way if anyone wants to go back and reread things it'll be a lot more easy to access each chapter and story beat. Hopefully I can figure out how people do that pinned comment thing too so I can put all that information in an easy place?

Welp I ended up with a Underland caterpillar design for Mettaton too. Because to be honest he fits the idea of transformation and discovering one’s self that a caterpillar stands for. How could I choose between him and Grillby though? I can’t. So I chose both! Hear me out...

-----------------------------------------------

Grillby is the original caterpillar. People seek him out for knowledge though he doesn’t give it away willingly. Mettaton, on the other hand, is a showman. Some regard him as a fortune teller, while others view him as all knowing. Loving the attention and praise, Mettaton has built a bit of an empire that now overshadows Grillby’s original role in Underland. Mettaton thinks there’s no harm in revamping this old role but is that true?

On the left is Mettaton’s ‘true’ form. He has the ability to change between forms, and much prefers the form on the right which he uses when presenting himself as the caterpillar. The larger form takes more energy however and he often has a time limit to conduct his business meetings before he must retire and recharge.

Got a question for Mettaton and the others? Ask away.

Love your art btw, Underland AU is my favorite. X3

Goodness thank you so much. ;; I feel honored that you like my little muses. I do have a lot of fun with Underland.

The caterpillar gave me a bit of pause, I must admit. It was tied between Mettaton and Grillby. It think the role fills both quite well, but in the end I actually went with Grillby because I actually had a design in mind for him.

Here we have a very cynical and tired of everything Grillby, the Caterpillar. I muse that he perhaps owns a club, where he watches over it with relative apathy atop his little mushroom. He's lived a very long time, and subsequently has gathered a lot of wisdom and experience. Many come from far and wide to hear what he has to say. But to be honest he's pretty done with all that.

Got a question to ask the Underland Crew? Go ahead and see what they say!~

Hello there, and thank you and all the people who are still sticking around despite my lack of activity online for the past few years. To be honest I very much miss being active artistically and creating both stories and just drawing for fun like I used to. I won't bore anyone with another long explanation. In summary it's been pretty rough since I went on my hiatus. I know it's been rough on everyone. For myself it's involved loss of family members, a drastic decline in my personal physical and mental health and an extremely slow journey towards figuring out exactly what's wrong with my body that's honestly still only inching along to this day.

Underkeeper and Mad Sans are in the works, don’t worry! While I work on that in the background though, I’ll answer your question. Enter new challenger Muffet! (That meme’s not dead yet right?)

I considered giving her the caterpillar role cuz bugs and arachnids y’know? However what ultimately ended up fitting her character a little more was the Duchess I think. Now hear me out…

The Duchess is a powerful, high class lady that is seemingly the sole rival to the Hearts royalty. Despite her occasionally odd and whimsical behavior, she’s actually a caring individual that respects Alice in the end. Not to mention Alice’s aversion to the character in some of the books. I thought this fit Muffet considering her caring personality and goals towards her family in the game. And I mean, she’s a spider, and Alice perhaps is initially put off by that fact. In the game, Muffet’s introduction is even meant to be a bit off putting. But in the end we see she’s only trying to do a good thing for her family. In this version, she’s doing the same, just looking after her family in a not so quiet cabin somewhere in Wonderland. 

Now for an interesting tidbit… Technically, the the Cheshire Cat belongs to the Duchess’ house! I wonder if we could do anything with that.

Please send in your suggestions or other character’s you’d like to see! I just might act on them.

How many Alices are there... I wonder....

----------------------------------------------------------

Aha surprise! So way longer than expected hiatus, I think it’s time to make my way back here. I’ve been working on Underkeeper and Mad Sans in the background but I’d prefer to build up some more updates before I actually start posting them again. I want to be able to ease into the schedule again without burning myself out immediately. SO that brings us to this question... What would you like to to see while you wait? This includes more underland/wondertale or any other of the sides that I have done. Or, just make a suggestion :3 Send me an ask with your ideas, and I’ll chose from them to give us something to do while you wait.

-------------------------------------------------------------

It’s been quite a while, and I’m sorry for not updating for a while. Thank you for your concern, but also I’m sorry if I made anyone worried. It’s still a bit hard to put these things in words, But I’ll do my best.  Long story short, I’m okay. But the past moth or so hasn’t been kind to my family and friends. A dear friend of mine lost their father to stage 4 cancer. A day after that, my aunt was diagnosed with the exact same thing, She fought it long enough for my mom to visit her. But she passed away on the 22 of August. My family is still missing her quite a lot. And the past week has been hard on us. We’re all making it through together, but it’ll be tough for a while. There’s also a few other things that have been happening that I don’t wish to go into here.

On the lighter side of things, I’m finally trying to finish the treatments to fix my spine. It’s going pretty well, and I’m nearing the end. But it’s been a little costly and I’m needing to put a lot of effort into keeping my finances balanced. 

Due to all of these things, I can barely find the motivation to draw. At best I can do simple commissions, at worst I can’t even do a sketch. With time I’m sure I’ll be able to. Drawing is my passion and source of happiness and decompression from work. But for now, I just need to let things calm down. 

Thank you for being patient everyone. And thank you for caring about me. I will be alright! 

Love,

You’re not my brother...
