It looks like he's about to use static shock on some poor unsuspecting victim lol

Anyways, this took way longer than it should have and I gave up on the shading along the way.

(plus all these other Puzzles, I guess)

Anyways, apparently I liked the idea of the Horror Trio being besties so much that I decided to try the same with the other Puzzles' from fanfic ideas that I may not be able to get around to writing, even if I promise myself that they'll be short.

It started with Kiddo Puzzles and PuzzleCat being a duo of silly kids. Then Tired Babysitter Puzzles was shoved into the mix with a Baby Puzzles because I thought it would be funny to toss more kids (who especially have no control over their powers) at the man to babysit. Then the Overpowered Trio barged in uninvited as uncles and that trio is a whole other thing.

About Kiddo and PuzzleCat:

I forgetsies sometimes, whoopsies!

I think it's going well :) (I've been practicing this word for a week now)

Ignore the markers, those are there as a reminder for me to check if the ends I've weaved in are still good

Anyways, I'm done with the base as I'm thinking of adding some kind of border on it. This is the same height as the Puzzles shawl but about up to 2 inches wider on each side because I was trying to do something which apparently made it wider than I expected it to be.

Flirting Technique Unlocked: Give That Man a Heart Attack

Anyways, I totally remembered that WPNZ was wearing a disguise and I definitely didn't have to go back to fix it

Idea: Toomp hasn't been feeling well. Unbeknownst to him, this is a sign to start his transformation into his new, bigger form. Instincts take control one night and luckily for Toomp, he has a compatible host nearby to house him during this process. Too bad he couldn't warn Puzzles. (Body Horror Attempt)

While watching over Toomp at WPNZ's request, Puzzles becomes the unwilling host while Toomp essentially cocoons inside of him. His role as the host is to feed Toomp and ensure Toomp safely reaches the end of his transformation. As host, Puzzles now has the ability to create mind-controlling parasites in the slime, but they're initially weak in phase 1 and are more effective on victims with extended exposure to the slime. Unfortunately, he also doesn't have full control over which people he infects. For easy access to the mouth growing out of his torso, Puzzles prefers to wear robes he can easily remove. However, the longer the transformation takes, the more fused together the he and Toomp will become (and no one is sure how long the process is going to take or if Puzzles will be able to survive to the end). By the end of phase 1, Puzzles' stomach mouth will be able to eat victims whole and Puzzles begins to question if his thoughts are truly his own (or has he finally accepted his role as Toomp's host?)

Thinking that Toomp was sick, WPNZ had gone out that night to get some medicine. By the time he comes back, he finds Toomp had already settled inside his new host and Puzzles trying to dig all the slime out of his body in futile effort. WPNZ feels guilt about the whole situation and, wanting to make things easier on Puzzles, decides to hunt around for victims to feed to Toomp. Out of respect for Puzzles' concerns, he does try to keep his distance when interacting with Puzzles to avoid getting infected with the parasites. However, he eventually accepts the parasites in response to Puzzles' attempts of pushing him away as the end of phase 1 draws closer.

Anyways, this was another horror attempt I wrote notes for last year. Meant to post this the other day, but forgot.

I'm putting the full image under the read more just in case. I don't think it's anything too bad (I think it's pretty tame, body horror wise) but Puzzles has a mouth on his stomach and he's got no pants.

...And Human Puzzles who has come prepared with a new weapon!

In which Human Puzzles is a monster magnet trying to avoid getting eaten, but then a swamp monster has the audacity to try tricking him by badly flirting with him. Surely, his newest weapon should be enough to take care of this annoyance! (Spoilers: It's not)

In which Swamp Monster WPNZ is interested in the strange (and elusive) human that's being talked about in the monster world and despite all the other monsters saying it doesn't work, he decides to flirt with them. He must be doing something right (Ha! Skill issue!) because the human keeps coming back to him to show off their new blasters (and their aim is getting better!)

Anyways, this is one of the many ideas I had that I wanted to make a oneshot out of (no joke, I have 20 more on the back burner since last year)

For WPNZ, I didn't do it because I thought there was a lot going on with his design (with all the plant matter that accidently looks more like hair), but I want to add some moss on him. I'm thinking on his spikes and along his tail. Maybe not on the blades since he uses those a lot so I imagine he likes to keep those clean. Additionally, he attaches plant matter and metal stuff to his body and they become a part of him, so he can shoot plants or something out of the barrel. There's also a running gag where WPNZ misinterpret info he receives about humans (but it seems to work out for him in the end)

Also, he gets to tower over Puzzles for once, as a treat. (And Puzzles is not a short human, monster WPNZ is just frickin' massive)

And I know I said I'll find a way to excuse Puzzles' TV head in every AU (and I do have one) but I wanted to try out an actual human design this time.

So far, Puzzles is wearing a hood that covers the helmet and tech that he has underneath. The dials and stuff are pins/badges that he put on there (they most likely have a hidden function but I haven't figured that part out yet). The hat is to keep the antennas from his helmet stable enough. The straps are from his TV-shaped backpack (from which he pulls random stuff out of). He has deformed pupils (still debating on giving him heterochromia) and a monster managed to slash his left eyebrow (the scar faded but the eyebrow never grew back). He also has multicolored braces for his top set of teeth because he got the kind with the colored rubber bands. I'm still debating what kind of hair style he has under the hood and helmet.

In which Puzzles runs a flower shop and is the villainous self-proclaimed uncle to Katie, Zack, and Corey. The kids love him, Karen claims to only tolerate him, and Puzzles will use every trick he has to win the "Best Uncle Ever" award (he is the sole contestant)

Meanwhile, WPNZ makes up every excuse he can to visit and flirt with the silly (and oblivious) flower shop man while trying not to get caught by Karen. All the flowers he bought is taking over his house and WPNZ gets into random beef with Puzzles' fangirls (while simultaneously getting friendzoned in front of them)

(Later on, Karen also misunderstands the situation and thinks WPNZ is trying to kill Puzzles in order to take the kids. Oops!)

Also, Puzzles keeps giving the kids villainous advice but the kids keep translating them into something wholesome, much to Puzzles' distress

Anyways, it's Newbie Adventurer Puzzles ready for his first ever adventure (curtesy of WPNZ)

With hypothetical Dungeon Boss outfits

In which Puzzles is Karen's coworker and friend(?) who takes it upon himself to send Karen on a vacation and volunteers to babysit her kids (and the strays) while she's gone

In which SMG4 and friends are unsupervised teenaged gremlins that test Puzzles' health and sanity

I was trying (and failed) to figure out different outfits for a fanfic idea that evolved into 30+ chapters planned. Still working on chapter one, but I'm bad at giving names to things and figuring out timelines.

Anyways, here's a what-if picture of Puzzles bringing up the time (in a bonus scene that was supposed to be a one-off joke) where WPNZ forgot to control his strength and accidently broke Puzzles' face (but Puzzles misunderstood it as WPNZ wanting their relationship to stay professional)
