Everyone In Hazbin Hotel Sounding Like A Duck Except The Man Obsessed With Them Lmao

Can I suggest that Rosie knows he’s an elk? Ace-in-the-hole part two electric boogaloo?

Y'all, I woke up from a late nap and have had a brief moment of clarity in my time of sickness. Alastor has more traits that are common compared to Elks rather than deers. Spoilers up ahead as Miss Vivian may have been treating us like a whole circus over here. This will be incredibly lengthy

During the Sir Pentious scene, where he tears off a piece of Alastor's coat. You can hear a warning sound when Sir Pentious says, "Oh Shit", its actually an elk scream as opposed to the warning call of a deer. There's a very noticeable difference between them.

Scene Mentioned:

This also brings me to notice that Alastor's ears are POINTED and not circular even in his softer moments. In fact, Alastor DOESN'T have deer ears at all, nor does he have the feet print of one on his shoes. Look here, my little sillies. This is a basic reference for animal tracks. When deers do have the back print, they aren't as narrow like Alastor's distinctively are.

The reason why we never see Alastor's tail is simple, Elk tails don't stay straight up like a deer does. Normally, it's flat and will remain relatively close to the body. They're also smaller compared to how big Elks are on average. Alastor's antlers also follow the anatomy of an elk in one of his fuller forms.

Now, onto behavior comparison:

Elks are a whole lot more aggressive than Deers are. They're much more willing to charge a threat and take over territory as opposed to their more timid counterparts. The first thing Alastor does when met with a threat is to not retreat nor double back but rather to assert himself against it.

Let's look at his interaction with Vox and Lucifer, respectively. Both of these songs, Alastor, insert himself into it and try to overpower the original singer. When bucks fight one another, they immediately lock combat with their antlers, and aggression is immediately displaced with a lack of self control. This does not align with how Alastor deals with confrontation.

In both instances, Vox and Lucifer insult Alastor first. Even if Alastor didn't like them, it's important to note that he did not take the first jab. Elks are notorious for avoiding physical fights in order to conserve energy, instead starting off with things similar to stare offs. Alastor technically does this as well, as noted when he first leaves tailor in the episode with Vox. This repeats when Lucifer enters the hotel.

Now, elks have a more direct fight than deers when push comes to shove. They use their antlers to zone in on one another before tussling over control of each other. This is what happens during both songs, Alastor starts to attempt to impose and overtake both of these individuals.

This works against Vox, causing Alastor to flaunt in a manner that an elk would after defending its property. They make a show to reveal Alastor's antlers during this scene, which initially threw me off until I realized, elks mark their terriority by rubbing their antlers on trees and whatnot.

However, this isn't the case with Lucifier. Alastor ends up losing in this particular song. It's crucial to accept that Alastor was massively out classed here, and even after Mimizy's interruption, he wasn't quite ready to call it quits.

He asserts himself again when the loan sharks arrive, now going out of his way to be larger and physically imposing overall. The focus of his demon form in this one is sheer size. Why does that detail matter? Well, guess what, bucko.. Elks do that as well. In order to get another elk to back down, the larger male will flex its physic to scare off the smaller male. Lucifier was intended to be the smaller male but then he didn't give a give a fuck, poor Alastor.

In conclusion; Alastor may not even be a deer demon. There's unironically a bunch of parallels between the more animal-like hazbin characters than you'd think, which I think is neat for subtle details.

thought that one Alastor scene would look cool in comic lettering, so i drew this

All those moving fanarts of Alastor discovering asexuality are very sweet and cool, but let’s not kid ourselves you guys, let’s not kid ourselves.

A little bonus:

Deaf dog training log: part 1

I’m petsitting/housesitting for my aunt and her dog has gone entirely deaf in her old age so I’m gonna try teach her sign commands

First I am establishing a reward signal, and I have picked “shine on shine on” from watching Ms Frazzled videos on Facebook (I wiggle my fingers). She is not a dog trainer btw she does satire videos about gentle-parenting entitled adults. Anyway every time I give Sandor scritches I smile and do Shine at her to establish the hand signal as a reward because she can’t hear clicker noises. Once she catches on I will teach her commands.

Also here’s your dog tax

Brown mink rosetted charcoal bengal mask (feat. my tiniest cousin modelling it)

Tried making the nose entirely out of hot glue and it still sucks a bit. Also used alcohol markers for the first time, I love them so much they’re so much more precise than finger painting with dye lmao

Fuck it. So many of you asked for this so I’m delivering. English Willy part 2. Enjoy

Inspired by the wiki fact: "Alastor dislikes being touched and will go out of his way to avoid it. Conversely, Alastor does not respect the personal space of others at all".

Very normal cat behaviour.

(In Frank’s pilot voice) I wish Rosie would chop my tits off with a meat cleaver

"Trans Alastor doesn't make sense" no it doesn't, but the idea of Rosie chopping his tits off with a cleaver is really really funny you guys

Face reveal

WIP maned wolf, still needs paint and a nose (see the trick I did hiding behind the phone?)

I used the tutorials on raccoonmasks YouTube channel! They’re so amazing!

Back by popular demand. English Willy part 3

(Idk if I'll do another bc I feel like its run its course and unlike Scott Cawthon I would like to end my series on a high note! But to everyone who sent in asks or showed support or generally took part I love all of you and had so much fun with this. I might do more in future but I don't want part 4 to hang over me as something I HAVE to do)
