The Amazing Mystery Dungeon AU, anyone?

Hurr durr, almost forgot to post this here!

Lord, help me, I'm back to my bullshit.

While looking back on the BATIM fandom, I completely forgot about a certain fanfic set in the Hell's Studio AU (@doodledrawsthings ). The AU is a lighthearted and humorous take on BATIM, a complete 180 degrees to the Canon. It's my favorite of the AUs.

The fanfic is called Through a Mirror, Darkly, by @crimsiscarlet and it's a crossover between the HS AU and the Canon game. The fic is well written in my opinion and goes into some real interesting interactions between the canon characters and their AU counterparts. It's one of my favorites and I strongly recommend it. It captures the dark and hopeless mood of the canon game while keeping in touch with HS's characters and their reactions to discovering just how bad their world could have gone.

The sequel to the fic, "A World Reflected, Brightly" (still WIP) tells the aftermath of the first story with quite a few stings still to be tied. The doodles I posted are from that, and without contexts are a major spoiler for anyone who hasn't read or finished the first story.

So I know its like midnight rn, and I havent drawn Bendy fan art in a HOT HOT minute, but that last chapter of Through a Mirror Darkly murdered me in cold blood and i physically could not sleep until I drew something.

For some unknown reason I’m still so into making poster- or coverlike arts for this fiction. It’s just fun

Through a Mirror, Darkly

I’ve been meaning to draw Sarah again in a more dynamic pose than last time since last time was just about getting her design in general nailed down and now I finally did it!

I’ve long since headcanoned her as the cheerful troublemaker of the two-- not that any of them were much for rules when those rules were in their way, as shown by the fic itself, but Sammy’s got such a stick up his butt sometimes that you gotta have someone there to loosen him up now and again and remind him that being made of 90% anger isn’t much fun. Smile or laugh now and again, you party pooper; it’s good for you.

The tradeoff for this? Sammy’s grumpy and more easily irritated, but if you reach the end of Sarah’s rope, buckle up. You’re in trouble.

I probably wouldn’t have gone for anger first given the idea that she’s the more openly sunny twin (and that I also drew this pose recently, to boot) but then @waruihoshi drew this and. Well. All I could think was ‘Welp she’s gonna tear you a new one.’

The idea that Sam’s father might’ve graduated to physical abuse wasn’t something I hadn’t considered given the bits of his past that we did see but now that it’s basically confirmed it happened I have a mighty need for someone to kick his ass (and I might write something about it someday maybe).

I have no excuse. :D
