Been Wanting To Do This Expression Meme For Years And Finally Decided To Do It With My Shadow Link Starting

Since there is no Snatcher to fight in the Subcon Kingdom au, of course the final boss of Subcon in this au is gonna be Queen Vanessa. The prince absolutely deserves to kick some Vanessa butt. 

More info under cut!     

For this instance, the prince manipulates Hat Kid for his own gain. He doesn’t do it maliciously and feels very bad doing so, but he really has no other option because he knows that there isn’t anything he can do on his own to face Vanessa now that she’s free from her confinement.

Prior to this point, he both learned of Time Piece’s time manipulation capabilities and that Hat Kid is able to vaguely sense their location. That last bit, combined with his awareness of how crazy strong and skilled Hat Kid is, leads to him having the final time piece in his possession as he waits outside of the boss arena for Hat Kid, who obviously arrives. He doesn’t outright force her to help him–providing her the option to help if she wants to or not–but he’s familiar enough with her to know she will indeed lend her aid.

Not entirely sure what the battle itself would be like. I have some vague ideas, but currently it is that Hat Kid acts as a distraction, keeping Vanessa’s attention on her to allow the prince to lob blue potions at the queen. On top of that, Hat Kid’s umbrella acts a lot like the mirror shield from Legend of Zelda, protecting against and even repelling Vanessa’s magic attacks. Not certain what exactly happens to Vanessa after she’s defeated, but she’s probably sealed up in some much more permanent manner.

After everything is taken care of and the prince is finally freed from his constant worry and stress about Vanessa, he admits to Hat Kid what he had done and how he used her and is super, super apologetic about the entire thing. He probably will never forgive himself for having done this to her (even though she’s super chill and doesn’t entirely understand what he had done other than the fact that he didn’t go out of his way to try and kill her). Either way, he freely presents the final time piece to Hat Kid and this is where we get this drawing of the prince holding the time piece with Hat Kid hugging him.

If you have any further questions don’t hesitate to ask!

Wanted to practice some dynamic poses. Originally intended only to be sketchy, but it got out of hand and here these are

Made this little comic over a year ago and then completely forgot about it and now the computer that had the original files fucked itself, so no colors for this. Ah well, enjoy Dad

I said I’d do more Pokemon/Hollow Knight stuff and since I’m in a Hollow Knight mood here’s more buggies! Some rough new ones and of course my moths!

Moth lore under cut if anyone cares to read my ramblings about them~

Volcarona is old, predating the split in dreams and is perhaps one of the first moths ever made by the Radiance. She is the leader of their little ragtag groups of moths and is highly proficient in dream magics including that of nightmares, whose flames she favors. It is these flames and the extensive knowledge her age has allowed her which she carries with the greatest pride and which she so readily shares with others she comes across in her travels.

Mothim acts as the group’s scout as well as a jack of all trades who helps with random little things whenever needed. Generally, he’s quite confident and alert, but you’d be an anxious mess too if you were separated from your group and it felt like everyone you came across tried to stab you at least once. He doesn’t even know what they meant by infection????

Dustox hauls around and keeps track of much of the group’s basic supplies. They’re the quietest of the group, loosing themselves to their thoughts quite often but they don’t let that effect how meticulous they are with their tasks, which provides them a level of unmatched resourcefulness and ingenuity. They’re still mourning the loss of their child.

Venomoth is the group’s lively healer and storyteller. The energy of the group lies with him as he continues to keep everyone’s spirits up, not allowing the silence of the vast expanses they travel to get to them by instead filling it with his endless thoughts and ideas. He possesses basic skill in soul magic, which allows him focus and heal both himself and others.

Frosmoth is the youngest and the primary defender of the group due to her being the only one to utilize a physical weapon of any kind--a makeshift blade of ice. Despite this, she is still quite inexperienced in fighting with a weapon and still primarily relies on the shear cold of her icy magic to bring her opponents to submission. She often gets into friendly competitions with Mothim.

The groups origins are found before the creation of Hallownest with the Pale King’s initial arrival. Volcarona, having already once been caught in the middle of two warring higher beings and sensing Radiance’s distaste of the new light, did not wish to find herself caught once more. So, she, alongside a handful of other, like-minded moths, departed the caverns and made their way out into the surround vast wastes. Ages later, Volcarona is drawn back to the old place of her birth, bringing with her the remaining descendants of those moths that had initially left with her those ages ago.

BRUH THAT NAGA PRINCE IS THE MOST ADORABLE THING I'VE SEEN ALL DAY OH MY GOD-

Thanks, I’m so glad people have enjoyed him >w<!!! Half of my brain has been taken over by this snake man. I already loved the prince, but making him snek just made me love him even more. Especially imagining the many snakey shenanigans that would inevitably arise. Anyways, have another cute snake prince he always has to blep as the other half of my brain begs that I get more things out for my Subcon Kingdom AU.

Hey there! I love your Hollow Knight Pokemon art. Not sure how many ideas you have on various characters, but do you think the grubs would be caterpie?

Caterpie are definitely grubs

More Pokemon in Hollow Knight style, this time all the moths! 

Frosmoth is one of my favorite Galar pokemon, but out of these designs I like Venomoth the most. Apparently Volcarona has a different design every time I draw them, though I think I may settle for one closer to the one below.

All of Four is offended by the existence of these 'weapons’ and is in agreement that they do not deserved to exist.

Back at it again on my bs. How long will I be on it, no on knows. Not even me. 

Remembered the “I’ve been twaumatized!” line from gravity falls existed 

Here's the Snail Shaman @hiddenvalleymonsterrancher suggested

Thought about how much of a little bastard they are with making us do something they're totally within their power to take care of themselves and had to drawn them like that smug cat meme from the best of my memory
