The scariest part of Halloween as an adult is not having plans. Nobody wants to be stuck at home with three-foot-tall Spidermen banging on the door for Twix bars.

30 daily kipperlilly's!
On April 26th, I drew Kipperlilly Copperkettle for the first time. The next day, I drew her again! And again. And... here we are.
I'm really proud of how much I was able to commit to this. The "daily Kipperlilly" project is going to become a little less... daily, going forward. As my summer plans grow, I won't really have the time to draw her every single day anymore. But rest assured, I still be drawing her. She's far too entrenched in my mind to be abandoned.
And while this is absolutely self-indulgent of me - if you'd like to share in the tags or replies which Daily Kipperlilly is your favorite, I'd love to hear!

Believe in Me
Warnings: captivity, restraints, torture, bruises, blood, rescue, unconsciousness, caretaker and whumpee, hurt/aftermath
"Believe in me," Caretaker had shouted as Whumper dragged Whumpee away, "I will find you. I will free you. Believe in me, Whumpee!"
Whumpee couldn't remember how long ago that was. They just knew it was a long time ago. And Whumper had been hurting them for a long time. But they had to hang on. They believed in Caretaker. Caretaker would get them out of here.
"Think you're so tough," Whumper hissed as they struck Whumpee's bruised cheek.
Whumpee struggled to keep their footing, struggled to keep from swinging in the standing cuffs. They couldn't fall down again. It hurt so much.
Whumper struck Whumpee once more. Whumpee felt their skin split and blood pour from above their eyebrow. They lost their footing and began to swing. "PLEASE!" They shrieked as they swung.
"This can all stop if you just give up. Give up hope, Whumpee. It won't be so terrible. I promise. I can be just as kind as Caretaker."
Whumpee didn't remember much after that. The world was hazy. They knew Whumper kept hitting them. Hit them until the world went black. When they came to, they were on their side, shackled to the wall. At least Whumper hadn't left them hanging.
Whumpee didn't know why they woke. It was dark and their body hurt. They wanted nothing more than to close their eyes and let oblivion claim them once again.
"None of that, Whumpee. Keep your eyes open."
Whumpee's heart skipped a beat. "C-C-Caretaker?" They dared to hope.
"The one and only," Caretaker gave Whumpee's shoulder a squeeze as they finished picking the locks on Whumpee's cuffs.
"You're here," Whumpee sobbed. They started to sit up, but as the room began to spin, they thought the better of it.
Caretaker wrapped their arms around Whumpee's shoulders. "Of course I am. I promised you. I told you I would free you."
Whumpee sagged with relief, suddenly the days and days of torture weighing so heavily on their body. Caretaker was here. Caretaker had them. They were safe. They were free. "Th-Thank you," Whumpee whispered. Their eyelids felt so heavy. But they were safe. It was ok to sink into oblivion. Caretaker had them.
"Whumpee, keep your eyes open. Please stay awake. Whumpee!" Caretaker's voice was sharp, but so distant.
Whumpee wanted to reply. Wanted to fight to keep their eyes open. But they were so tired. They believed in Caretaker and Caretaker was here. They believed Caretaker would set them free. And with that final thought, Whumpee let the darkness claim them.

WIP Wednesday 1/31/24 (Closed) | New Kings AU
Matt guides Kevin away from the wounds of Andrew's manic laughter arm warm and friendly around his shoulders. "No one's blaming you for needing a break man." Matt says quietly, "You had to keep him together all the way home." he says squeezing his shoulder.
Kevin swallows and he leans a bit into Matt's side.
For as good of a Backliner Matt was professionally after college, he'd always been 10x the friend.
"Thanks Matt." Kevin says quietly as Matt opened the door and-
"Oh, what the hell is Day doing here?" Seth squawks.
