Monarch Madness Doodles

Some of the quick doodles I've been doing for DE's Monarch Madness event. Some of them are unused or unfinished because someone beat me to posting them.

The "rush hour" doodles are below the cut.

You have no idea how excited I was for this prompt, this was FUN AF- And ain't no way I'm leaving out my boi Parker. I probably had a bit too much fun writing this, but oh well. You can definitely tell the ones I'm passionate with lol

(I also want to apologize if Doug isn't written well or seems OOC. I've never written him before, or even a similar character type. I tried my best, apologies in advance!)

They Find out You're Pregnant

Featuring: Dishy, Dante, Hector, Doug, Chance, Parker

Dishy

First Question: Why?

Second Question: How?

Final Question: How was it?

Moving on, there is no fucking way this guy knows what's going on. Valdivian didn't fucking teach him about pregnancy!! All he knows is how to clean dishes and steal information!

When you faint, he really doesn't know what to do. For a solid minute he just kinda looked around in pure confusion. Sinclaire of all people had to step in and send Dishy to Farya

"Farya! It's me, Dishy! The human seems to have fainted, but I detect no noxious fumes in the air! Could you do a quick scan of her health?"

Although confused by Dishy's sudden appearance, Farya can't turn down a good medical emergency!

Dear sweet jesus she had no idea how to react. Like, everyone in the house knew you two were... a thing(?) but never expected it to go any further than talking or possibly holding hands. This was... definitely something

A shockwave swept through the entire house, and when you woke up, hit you like a truck of bricks

Dishy seemed unfazed somehow. He downloaded some information from Valdivian about childbirth while you were unconscious and claimed he was ready to be a father!

It was clear he had no fucking clue what he was talking about or getting himself into, but somehow he actually seemed genuine. It's always hard to tell with him, but he seemed to be truly excited about this

Being a very odd dilemma, you had a very big decision to make. Whether to keep the baby or not

It isn't an easy decision, and you toiled with this for a long time. Did you really want to have the baby of a dishwasher? It wasn't even like he was just like the rest in the house, he was the oddball in it all. You didn't even know if he was mentally capable of being a parental figure

In the end, the house will do it's best to help you throughout the whole ordeal. No matter how weird they find it, they all still love you and want the best for you

And you know what? Dishy may surprise you in the end...

Dante

You two have been lovers for awhile now, and of course done a lot together

Ever since he learned of the concept, Dante has always wanted kids. The idea of starting a family has always been a dream for him, but he never really had anyone to share that feeling and experience with

Until you that is!

You were both just cuddling together when suddenly you got light-headed and eventually passed out

Dante was worried (he was wondering if you maybe overheated) but was able to keep a cool head about it. He carefully but quickly set you on the coach and found Farya

As she processed her diagnosis, he stayed by your side and held your hand gently (making sure to let go every now and then so your hand doesn't burn)

By the time you woke up and he explained everything, Farya came back with the results

The news that you were going to be parents made you both embrace in joy! Dante was burning so hot he had to consciously stop himself from scorching you (and frankly the rest of the house)

He quickly listened to you and took care of you throughout the whole pregnancy. He borrowed some books from Lyric about raising children to help

Dante likes to use his natural warmth to soothe your aches and pains. A gentle hand on your back or a kiss on the neck are good for a warm compress

You soon learned that he was actually going to propose in the coming weeks! He couldn't figure out the best day or way, so it got held off until the sudden pregnancy discovery

"Well, this was gonna be a whole thing, but I guess we can move it up! _____, our time together has been amazing. You are my closest friend, and the person I love the most. And now? We get to start a family together, all of our own! I bet I know the answer, but I still want to ask to make sure. Will you marry me?"

Both of you happily had a lovely small wedding with your closest friends, wanting to tie the knot before you both get lost in childcare. Your attention was fully on growing and taking care of your family

After some time though, you guys have a wonderful honeymoon to look forward to~

Hector

Once you finally met Hector face to face, you were always in the attic with him. Talking, cuddling, it was your own personal love nest

Being lovers, you obviously also did more than just hold hands

He painted so many erotic pictures for you, you were not gonna let him get away with that! He was shocked you still wanted to do those things with him after seeing what he really looks like, but after a heated makeout session he very quickly got over it and followed up on his promises (trust me, he is not all talk)

That day he noticed you seemed a bit off, but you always waved it off, convinced it was just a bad day

While you were doing your typical talk and cuddle session, suddenly you grew silent, and he noticed you fell unconscious in his arms

The whole house was shocked when Hector came running down the stairs, you cradled in his arms, calling for Farya. This man NEVER left the attic, this was serious business. Even Farya herself was panicked at the situation

"Farya! Please! My-My love, they seem to have fainted while we were talking. I'm unsure of what the issue is, but please, you must help me. I... I can't bear the thought of anything happening to them... please..."

She made no hesitation and quickly gathered her equipment. To honor his privacy, she lead him back up to the attic to conduct the examination

Hector didn't leave your side for a second. He held your hand firmly in his, stroking the back of it with his thumb. Farya kept trying to ease his mind saying you were stable and totally fine. Deep down he knew it, but it was still terrifying to see you like this

After a few conversations and tests, she easily figured out you were pregnant. Spending sooo much time together, she had a strong feeling, but now it was 100% confirmed

Hector's world seemed to stop in it's tracks. You... were pregnant? With child? HIs child? Tears quickly gathered and fell down his cheeks, a warm glow washing over his overjoyed face

Ever since you purchased the house, ever since he laid his eyes on you, he imagined spending his whole life with you. Holding you, kissing you, treasuring you. Being able to be the boyfriend, no, the husband of someone as extraordinary as you felt like a distant dream. A pure fantasy meant for the sweetest dreams he dreamt all alone

Now it was finally happening

By the time you woke up, he had admittedly already thought of dozens of possible baby names

As he happily broke the news to you, his heart dropped when he noticed your pause. When the first tear trailed down, it stopped cold. Here was his biggest fear

Although Hector was overjoyed at your future, his self esteem was still fragile. Deep down he had his still real fear of rejection, and it was quickly rearing it's ugly head once more

Is it because you didn't really love love him? Did you find him ugly and didn't want to make children who look like him?

He tried to speak up and apologize, but was immediately shut up by you smashing your lips together, your arms embracing him like a tight blanket. Yes you were crying, but out of joy

As you progressed through your pregnancy, Hector was pretty much a dream. Caring, attentive, always there.

(He didn't want to admit it, but he has heavily studied the process of childcare in humans. You know... just in case)

Hector wanted to prove to you and himself that he was ready to grow in order to give your family the best life. Throughout the months he started to leave the attic for small periods of time. Sometimes to have a bite to eat, sometimes to have small conversations. Everyone in the house helped him take small steps

Your eventual wedding was magical, and Betty promised to babysit while you two went on your Honeymoon

Doug

Both of you were trying something new together (it has become a ritual to mix it up to avoid becoming stagnant) when you suddenly grew dizzy

Doug being Doug mocked you for this. Who faints from playing Gin Rummy? Are you that much of a lightweight?

When you didn't respond snarkily, he actually he paused. And once you collapsed, he sat there.

He didn't ask Farya for help, he told her she was gonna help. If she wasn't so interested in you and the medical and field, there would be more push back. But whatever

The news of your pregnancy hit him. Hard. Farya tried to gush about the beauty of childbirth, but Doug just silently got up and walked away

You woke up, Doug gone and a troubled Farya to your side. When she told you about his reaction, it broke your heart. You swore you were really connected, did he really not want to be with you like this?

You desperately tried to get any response from him, but he kept his lips sealed. Fully frustrated you finally snapped and asked what his problem was

Doug exploded back, but not in the way you expected

"How am I going to be a damn Dad!? I'm the literal embodiment of Existential Dread, I spend 90% of my time doom scrolling or calculating how long until our helium supply runs out. Total Dad material. Do you expect me to just... be responsible? I don't... I don't even know if that's possible..."

He tried to keep his normal air of cynicism, but after being together so long, you could clearly hear the pain and uneasiness in his voice

Doug didn't have a real problem about the pregnancy deep down. He was caught off guard, but he wasn't upset about it. The idea of raising a kid with you was too intriguing to turn down, It was all the thoughts that came afterward that made him doubt it all

Without a word you just hugged him close. Channeling all of your love and understanding through your heart, hoping for it to reach him. He tried to tell you off again, but eventually fell into silence, eventually returning your embrace

The first couple of months were admittedly pretty rough. He was never known to be the most tender or pampering type of partner, so it was a journey to teach him the ways

Eventually though, he naturally fell into it. In his own Doug-esque way, he actually found a way to take care of you that felt natural to him.

Although he was still scared and pessimistic inside, Doug is willing to do his absolute best to be the sickest fucking Dad ever

Chance

You two were having your frequent special date night playing a oneshot of G&G. It was going super well (cute and sexy flirting was laced throughout, like usual) and you got pretty invested

You were up against a really powerful enemy, and somehow appropriately started to feel your head spin

Since it was common for you to play up the roleplay and really get into character, Chance didn't bat an eye at it. Frankly, he was impressed! You really looked like you were gonna collapse!

The moment you finally got knocked out, in a cruel sense of coincidence, you fell unconscious and gently collapsed onto the table

Chance actually gave you a small round of applause! This has been your most convincing performance yet!

After you didn't get up after his second bad joke, then he realized something was wrong. You always tease him and poke fun! You must really be out!

Immediate panic set in, and after having Dasha stay with you, Chance went and quickly got Farya ASAP

While she checked on you, Chance fidgeted with his dice collection, organizing them in different ways (color/size/theme/etc). It helped keep his mind at ease during the tense wait

Just as he finished organizing your old character sheets in alphabetical order, Farya came back with the great news

Chance was absolutely excited! You both have had talks about having a kid together, but it never got past Session 0. This was sudden, but not unwelcome news. Once you woke up, he gently but giddily told you the great news!

Although you were clearly happy, he could sense the anxiety in you, so he confidently took both of your hands in his and looked you deep in the eyes

"Look _____, we obviously weren't expecting this. At least, not this soon, I guess? I wasn't sure if you wanted to anytime soon, I didn't want to put any pressure. A-Anyway, the point is, I'm going to be with you throughout our whole journey, throughout our whole story. No matter how many bad guys we have to defeat, no matter how many saving throws I need to make. I am ready for this adventure with you!"

The dork somehow was confused when you started sobbing from joy, like he didn't just drop the sweetest speech of all time

A lot of his baby name ideas were a bit too out there to be realistic. A LOT of fantasy names, both from media and his own creations. "Ersandoral" would be bullied starting in fucking preschool

You both eventually settled on the name of one of your old characters (one with a unique but still socially acceptable name)

Be prepared for lots of family costumes! Chance already has a bunch of cute ideas for you guys next time you go to the Ren Fair~

Parker

The first aid kit was just minding her business when suddenly the bathroom door was kicked in, followed by a frantic Parker holding you in his arms

"FARYA MY IMMENCE GAMING ABILITIES HAVE KILLED _____!!!"

Farya was admittedly a liiiiiilttle bit excited when she heard there was a possibility you were gravely injured, but quickly came to her senses and checked you out

Apparently you two were playing Scattergories and you were showing signs of fatigue. It wasn't until he won that you finally faded out and he was thrown into a panic

Farya was happy to reveal that you were pregnant and Parker's eyes widened and sparkled

Shock was all around! Parker was aware (very aware~) you two have banged before, but pregnancy never even crossed his mind

While you recovered, he thought to himself for a long time

Once you awoke, Parker quickly grasped you and declared how he was ready for fatherhood!!

Obviously confused, you asked what the fuck he meant. Farya helped explain

You were shocked and caught off guard, but not upset. It was a really soothing thought. And seeing your boyfriend's obvious glee and excitement made you feel even better

Then, Parker being Parker, remembered his weird dice rules. In order to decide if he is excited to be a father is all down to RNJesus!

Chance got pulled into his nonsense (yet again) and was once again told to roll Parker's fate

Seeing your entertained face and Parker's hyperly eager one, he knew what to do

He rigged the dice to say yes. Obviously. Come the fuck on

It was abundantly clear Parker was super excited to be a Dad, Chance wasn't gonna risk ruining that over stupid dice

Moving forward, Parker did his best to learn about human pregnancy and wrote down tons of rules for himself in order to be both a great Dad and partner

It will be an odd ordeal, but he is excited nonetheless!

The best part was definitely assimilating your child into the world of board games. Parker has already has a giant collection of all sorts, it was exciting organizing them into proper age ratings
