#trigger warning spiders

I’m just in an OC mood! And kept putting this off for like a month or so.  But.  I wanted to draw one of my favourite OCs, Uriel. Which. I don’t know how he of all characters is my fave. He has spiders. I hate spiders. 

It’s been a few years since I drew Uriel chilling with his spiders and I felt like redrawing it. And man! Do I both love and hate this! Drawing the webs isn’t always fun and then the spiders. THOSE SPIDERS! I don’t like spiders, yet i still draw them for this guy.  But I love it. I love how chill Uriel is, I love how much better he looks. I’m pleased. 

Also! The comparison shots!

My reaction if I was the doctor’s companion and he took me to a place that had a HUGE Spider. I’m a bit under the weather so if this totally trash. I blame it on the fever.

We seemed to be in a hallway, that’s where the TARDIS landed. The Doctor was talking away about semantics of the space station and its use, and some other things. I was walking in front of The Doctor as usual. I turned the corner and froze. My heart up-ticking at the sight. There, at the end of the next hall was a HUGE spider. It wasn’t looking in our direction and I wanted to keep it that way.

“Doctor?” I whispered, slowly walking backwards. Hand behind me meeting air trying to tap The Doctor or grab onto him without looking. It was then I realized it had gone silent not long before I made it to the corner. So I turned— somewhat reluctantly to glance behind me. Yet like my hand, only an empty space greeted my eyes.

The hall was empty. Where could The Doctor have possibly gone? There was nowhere in this hallway to go expect… The TARDIS. Oh.. right. The Doctor had told me to wait a moment. That’s what I’d hummed to in reply moments before but I’d been in la-la-land. Big mistake.

The whisper was enough, it seemed. For when I turned my head back around ahead of me. There it was. Large, brown, and hairy. Was it a huntsman spider? I backed away, nary tripping over my own feet. I tried to move slowly, thinking maybe if I was. It wouldn’t attack. But for every few steps back it scuttled closer.

“Doctor!! Doctor!” I shouted. It heard me if I whispered so keeping quiet, did it truly matter? Maybe. But I was just a bit— okay. Very panicked and lost a bit of my presence of mind. Almost all bugs on earth freaked me out, and they were tiny compared to me. So having a large version just feet before me? Terrifying.

“When I said I wanted to see Spider-Man and have a Spider-Man experience, Doctor. I Did Not Mean A Spider The Size Of A Man! No. Scratch that! It’s bigger than that! I don’t even know how to conceptualize how tall this thing is! It’s bigger than the TARDIS! And about as wide to be all smooshed inside the console room!”

The spider scuttled even closer, its pincers opening and closing. All eight of its beady eyes fixed on me

“Oh my god— No. no no no no! Don’t crawl closer to me! I swear to god I’ll..! I’ll! I’ll hit you with my shoe! It’s no chancleta but it’ll get the job done! Oh… who am I kidding… it’ll hit you, bounce off and probably piss you off…”

I didn’t move to take off my shoe. I wasn’t that out of it. Like many of our adventures. We would need to run. That I knew. My back hit the TARDIS. At least I assumed. A brief feel with my hand confirmed it. Yep. Wood. Everything else was steel or Iron. Basically it was metal. The Doctor would know the difference I was sure.

Backed against The Tardis, my breathing increased as well as my heart rate. The TARDIS didn’t like me. Like a cat, it needed time to warm up. Despite going on enough adventures to be unable to count them on my fingers and toes. Still I remained seemingly only begrudgingly tolerated. Therefore I didn’t try the handle. I had a feeling it wouldn’t open for me if I pulled it. Plus, I felt frozen in place despite my brain yelling at me to move.

“Is that saliva or venom….” I muttered aloud as I saw its fangs which glistened in the lights. I didn’t have to find out though, for a creak alerted me to something opening. The TARDIS.

The next moment a hand gripped my own, pulling me— forcing me to move as one word, just one word was said.

“Run.” The Doctor stated. Not letting go of my hand was we ran down the hall.

“I tried to get into contact with the ship!” The Doctor started to explain as we ran. “Giant Arachnids have taken over! Specifically a mother. Soon enough all these egg sacks will hatch and this space station will be completely over run!”

Now I noticed it. Massive amounts of webbing on the walls, within corners. Huge spider webs we had to duck under. I had a feeling a knew what was within those large cocoons. And that knowledge filled me with dread. But I also knew, that there must hopefully be survivors. After all. We had gotten an SOS signal.

4. Can you cook?

Yes, I can. But I don't like to. I do like to bake though.

5. Do you have any pets?

Yes, I do. I have two African Dwarf frogs named Tango and Cash. Don't ask me which one is which because I don't know. They are both Tango and they are both Cash. I also have two dogs. One is a mutt named Abby. The other is an Australian Shepherd named Miss Lady Roxanne which we call Roxie. Then I have 2 cats inside named Emily and Picasso. Picasso has no tail. He's a Manx cat. We also had a stray come up last year around this time of year. She ended up giving us a litter of four kittens so we have Honey (Mama) and Izzy (female) and Beghera and Rocky. The other male kitten was given to my brother-in-law's family. His name is Midnight.

6. Do you prefer foods that are sweet, sour, spicy, salty, or bitter?

Spicy and sweet. Not together but separate. Those are my favorite two.

7. Are you an extrovert, introvert, or somewhere in between?

I'm an in-between. It depends on the situation and the people.

(Please Note: You didn't ask for this one but I'm going to tell you it anyway because of reasons.)

3. Can you kill the spider?
