Bugtober 31 - Everlasting

Hoaxe never thought he'd see the Dead Lands bloom.

Not with their chill. Their dust and ash. Their monsters and plagues and poison and drought.

He had never expected much life to persist, unless it be twisted, hardened life sharpened against the harsh grindstones of starvation and peril. He himself bore testament enough to that reality.

And yet, lingering here in his strange pocket of between, tethered within the sapling he had died in, he beheld a miracle.

A garden.

A little, soft, glowing garden.

Pollen flecked the air, sparkling with some inner golden glow.

Soft plants sprung from the ground at the base of the everlasting tree, blanketing once hard rock with downy leaves.

Hoaxe had never thought he'd see the Dead Lands bloom - that any good could come of the barren place.

Looking down at the blooming garden, some cracked part of him finally quieted like an ache dissolving under hot water.

Hoaxe smiled to himself as he bore witness to a miracle and a victory.

He supposed he could be content with this, if this were his eternity.

Very content indeed.

This was so much fun to do! finally actually showing some of my hc designs for BF as well :3

i'm doing art studies for each day of bugtober and this one was for perspective

I don't do a lot of full pieces- especially not in this perspective

H: "oh, I didn't order a drink"

Bugtober 25 - Crossover

Wanderbugs AU be upon ye!

Credit to @themissinglynx for making his official AU design, which I have referenced here.

Asto's a skykid-wayfarer hybrid :3

Oh also Wanderbugs is basically Lynx and I playing with our bug-game-dolls in a dollhouse mashup of That Game Company and Giant Squid settings XD
