I drew some of the crew interacting with the cats! Along with Ruben and Princess curled up together being adorable.

Ruben looks so goofy being held like that by Dust. He's like a noodle. I also don't know how Princess is standing on Cross's arm like that but oh well. If I knew how to draw proportions properly, she'd be on his shoulder instead.

Kira looks hella pissed off that Princess (who I keep trying to call Layla for whatever reason as I'm typing this) is on Killer's lap. Kira has a bit of a jealousy and entitlement problem. She thinks that only she can get Killer's attention and that the other cats should screw off. She also refuses to bond with any of the others, unlike Moss who will actually give the others a chance.

Speaking of Moss, Nightmare is her favorite. She likes him better than Killer oddly enough because Nightmare usually ignores her, while Killer is always trying to get her to quit being such an antisocial kitty. He also has the warmest lap and he doesn't bother shooing her away. They'll just nap together in an armchair or on a couch or anywhere one can take a nice nap.

Ruben...well, Ruben is Ruben. He seems to like bothering Dust the most and Dust doesn't really know what to do with him. Also, Ruben is very much a stereotypical orange cat. No matter how sophisticated he may look with that long triangular face, he will always be as goofy as those big ass ears he's got on his head. His ridiculous antics puzzle Dust. It puzzles Dust more that he seems to be Ruben's favorite. He's given Ruben no reason to care about him...right? WRONG. Dust is the only one that pays attention to Ruben's antics and that makes him a target for the orange cat shenanigans.

As for Princess? Her favorite was Killer, but ever since Cross showed up, she's been all over him. And it freaks Cross out. Like, why is this cat so obsessed with him? What did he do? Well, he always looks nervous or paranoid about something, that's what. She bothers him so much because she thinks she can help him feel better. He's also the only one who will never shoo her away, no matter where he is or what he's doing. But that's mostly cuz he freezes up when she shows up. Which is also because she always comes out of nowhere, jumping out in front of him or onto him from what he can only assume to be the depths of the void.

Anyway, I think that's enough yapping. So if you have any questions that I didn't cover here, just ask! Comments and the ask box are both open to anyone as long as you're being nice and civil.

Killer belongs to Rahafwabas

Nightmare belongs to Jokublog

Cross belongs to Jakei95

Dust belongs to Ask-dusttale

Flighteningverse Week 2024 Day 5: Flight

So I did end up coloring my drawing for Novembmare Day 11, and I gave Nightmare a more realistic color design. I will probably go back and forth between the designs depending on what I feel like drawing, but I might do this one more often because I don't have to deal with coloring the line art. It also just looks nicer and more soft, which matches FV! Nightmare's personality better.

I originally tried to make this like a tiny little animatic but I couldn't figure out how to pace it right so you're just getting the last frame instead lol I might clean it up and color it later.

"My brother may not...care for me anymore...but that's alright, these idiots are all the family I need." Nightmare thought peacefully to himself as he gave each of his teammates a pat on the head.

Explanation of their family dynamics below the cut!

Dark Sans Cross. He's the newest member of Nightmare's team. He didn't actually go through the X-Event, that was Chalk (I will go ahead and call him that for now just to differentiate the two). His version of the X-Event had been stopped before it could escalate too far, no one wanted to go through it a second time. Nightmare ended up getting to him before Corrupted, which was the main factor in preventing a second X-Event. Cross still has a lot of trust issues and can still be aggressive, but Nightmare has been working with him and he's been slowly getting better. He tends to get pretty restless, always fearing that even though his X-Event was stopped, XGaster may still find a way to make his life hell, and he tries to deal with this restlessness by guarding the castle. If he's not out on a mission, he's patrolling the castle halls. Nightmare is trying to find a way for him to break this habit as it's affected his sleep schedule greatly. Splatter and Reaper are his adoptive brothers, and he also sees Dust as his brother. He's also trying to get his parents to officially adopt Dust into the family too.

As for Chalk, I'm actually going to put a few headcanons on him too. He's not part of the Bad Sanses, but he's not part of The Stars either. Not yet, anyway. He's been debating it. He's as aggressive and distrusting as canon Cross is, but wants to learn to trust again. He's just terrified of being used and manipulated for another time. He wishes things could be normal for once and cries about it at least 5 times a week. His mental health has been thrown into a ditch essentially. He hates Corrupted and Ink's guts, and is slowly trying to rekindle his friendship with Epic, he feels bad about not remembering who his old friend is.

Now for Horror. Horror is a member of the Dark Sanses and is the team's cook, and he hates people going into "his" kitchen. He can be a bit of an asshole but is very caring towards his teammates. Despite the famine issue being solved in his au, Horror still doesn't eat. He can't eat, he's gone so long without food that his body would reject anything he puts in his mouth at this point. He's still as smart as canon Horror (who's as smart as Classic because he was a Classic at one point) but does sometimes struggle with short-term memory loss. One fanon thing that I have kept for my version of Horror is that he's big, strong and scary. (Also just noticed that Cross looks much bigger than Horror in the drawing. This is not true. Cross is bigger than Dust and Killer, but not bigger than Horror)

As for Terror, he's also supposed to be as canon as possible. Only reason he joined the Bad Sanses was because Corrupted promised to help fix his au (although he probably would've forced Terror to join anyway), but he has not yet fulfilled his side of the agreement and never plans to. Also, logic actually works on Terror, so he's actually really scrawny like he should be. I honestly don't think I've ever seen someone actually try to depict him as such. Doesn't mean that no one else has though.

I think that's all for now. That's all I wrote down in my info sheet anyway lol. As always if you have questions, just ask me (or the characters!) using the ask box or comments!

Aren't they cool? (I absolutely love how Chalk's Fauna-form came out! I don't think I've ever drawn something with such a cool edginess to it before.)

To learn more about them, check under the cut!

This is from @owl-bones, the prize I got from their raffle. I do love the way these guys were drawn! Look at them chillin!
