a comic about my weird irreverence for canon

Oh hey, thank you! Admittedly, the implications of this one are rather dark but I hope that's alright... (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)

Don't imagine your city being devastated by war and losing everything you held dear. How you aimlessly wandered through the rubble filled streets. How the air was thick with smoke and ash. How you found your home completely destroyed.

Don't imagine falling to your knees and sobbing. How you wish it had been you and not them. How you realize that you're completely alone in the world now. How you have no idea how you'll go on.

Don't imagine how a shiver runs down your spine and your heart fills with dread. How you sense him before you see him approach. How he murmurs sympathy at your plight. How his voice permeates your entire being.

Don't imagine his tendrils coiling around your body. How their embrace is almost comforting but how they restrain your movements instead. How he introduces himself as the Lord of Darkness and properly reveals himself to you. How his appearance strikes fear into your heart and how his permanent grin sharpens.

Don't imagine how his claws graze your skin as he tilts your chin up to meet his gaze. How he considers you for a long moment. How he offers to take you away from here and how he'll give you a new purpose. How you feel almost compelled to accept. How you quietly agree as what else can you do?

Don't imagine how he pulls you close and tightens his grip on your frail body. How the darkness seems to encompass and chill you to the bone. How he brings you to his home and gives you a nice room. How he insists that you tell him if you ever need anything.

Don't imagine wondering if this is all too good to be true. How he must want something from you. How he won't explain what he meant. How you get the sense that he won't ever let you leave.

Don't imagine how kind he is to you. How he's there when your nightmares start. How he comforts you and allows you to let everything out. How he insists that you needn't feel bad for venting.

Don't imagine regularly seeking him out whenever you're upset. How he's all too happy to stop whatever he's doing to tend to you. Definitely don't imagine how he pulls you close and rests his skull on your head. How he whispers that you're such a good human and how he's very glad he found you. How you don't know what he means but how you're flattered regardless.

some of you who have been here a minute might know that i am a refugee applying for political asylum in mexico. i have been constantly struggling to make rent or buy food, and my only method of asking for help has been through commissions, which has led to my queue - and me, by extension - becoming overwhelmed.

so that said, i'm very happy to announce...

i (finally) have a ko-fi page set up! :'D

if you don't have the money for a commission or don't want to wait for the queue, you can now donate a few dollars to me directly! EVERY donation will go towards keeping me and my 2 kitties alive and helping me apply for the necessary legal processes to finally reach stability and safety - and, of course, have more time for fanart!

Because with Classic Sans to Dust, it's patience and justice, cyan and yellow, to having justice replaced with Determination, red of course, but how would this change affect Baggs?

I imagine that the cyan coloration would stay the same the way it does with Dust, but maybe the magenta would darken to be closer to perseverance in a cruel twist of fate and storyline events with him having to go back on his wobbly morals to survive in/stop the geno routes.

I had a go at a couple of options
