HEY I FINALLY REDESIGNED THE STYLIZED SNAKEMOUTH DESIGNS I MADE LAST YEAR

under the cut is rambles/headcanons and a few doodles

director's cut ig pft:

long awaited (for me personally ive wanted to do this for awhile kjfhkj) redesigns

of course at the time of posting the original stylizations, i was proud of them but now i dont really like how kabbu and vi came out kjfhkj

and leif just had the incorrect wing pattern (i wanted to give him wings that were more like the species he is but i guess i was looking at the wrong moth PFT)

these designs i like a lot more! kabbu and vi no longer look awkward to me and leif has more "accurate wings" (i changed the spots to reflect his original design more)

headcanons:

i imagine leif to have a voice similar to these 2 characters: one and two however you cant ask why i will not be able to explain it to you trans leif

i think kabbu picked up a little bit of embroidery as a calming pasttime. he's no expert at it but he's not bad at it either. he used this hobby to embroider a pattern that reminded him of bit and his master, and then over the course of the journey with team snakemouth, he would embroider patterns dedicated to them too

the patterns: bit - bit's horns and weapon master - master's horns and weapon vi - beemarang and berries leif - snakemouth den and a snowflake chompy - her head kjfhkj

i think during the entire time team snakemouth was in golden hills, vi would be covered in pollen because of the specialized bristles bees have and the amount of flowers that are in golden hills kjshfkj

leif definitely has a lower temperature than other bugs because 1) hes kind of a zombie and 2) he possesses ice magic fortunately, chompy doesn't seem to mind the fact that leif is a little colder than usual despite being a plant and neither does team snakemouth. though it is startling at times to get a sudden chill when leif touches them out of nowhere

alright, enough talk, have some team snakemouth doodles

thanks for reading!!

#bug fables spoilers #bug fables #bug fables fanart #vi gets mandibles. as a treat #i also forgot to give leif little fluff tufts on his arms and legs. oh well #kabbu also sometimes sticks out his antennae #i forgot to doodle that in his main ref but whatever PFT #the antennae are orange #moth scribbles .png

@eeveelutiontwos Xiangliu: The Azuretwo stared quietly at Vismay for a good long moment, dark pink tail swishing behind her. When she finally spoke, it was to say:

"You are very beautiful."

Another moment of silence.

"...Are you like me? I have a purpose I was created for. Do you have one?" While the sentence could come off badly in text, Xiangliu's voice held only genuine curiosity.

The old mew startled slightly at her compliment ears up before lowering in a bashful manner mouth falling into a smile, "You are too kind dearest one," one of his top paws idly brushed through the fur of his chest, "although the sun and ages have weathered my form I accept your compliment with gratitude and warmth," he moved in his float to bow to her in show of gratitude and general display of his manners paws moving in a flourish before righting himself to observe her in great intrigue.

"Forgive me if this is rude but you are a mewtwo correct?" Moving around her carefully, "my and something else yes I sense it, Eevee dna I'm sure," a paw to his mouth in thoughts before remembering himself, "ah I apologise but I believe I have not had the honor of this form of evolution in my own world, dragon typing yes?"

"You are if I may say far more beautiful than I, I am honored to be in your company. Having the opportunity to become even only briefly aware of the vast variables of evolution across the multiverses meeting pokemon that I may never meet back home, it's a privilege to always be learning so thank you." His voice carried so much wonder and warmth for having met her.

Though it was somewhat obvious they were avoiding her question using the opportunity of meeting her and a new eeveelution to keep the conversation away.

The guilt however of not answering her question when it was likely she was trying to reach out and bond with an individual she believed to be like herself caught him first before she had to ask again or believed she may have crossed a boundary. He gave a sad smile to her as he exhaled from his nose slowly.

"I'm afraid I was created without a true purpose, just like how through random variable your world has a dragon evolution of Eevee, random variables led to my existence, it was purely chance I'm here now." One of their ears moves to the side then righted itself as he thought, "I was given tasks of course and purpose but," ears flattened again in sadness their voice faltered cracking until it quietened having miscalculated how ready for the discussion he was. He offered a sad shy smile of apology.

Clearing their throat coughing into a paw they regained their voice and spoke again, "I do what I can in the meantime, I help keep the dna of lost pokemon stored," he patted his chest above his heart, "so they're never truly gone even if extinct, reintroducing older dna into species for biodiversity, typical mew work even if I'm not technically," he moved his head in sort of a wobble not finishing the sentence since it was pretty evident he wasn't a traditional mew by any means.

"While, I know that was likely not the answer you expected may I ask about your purpose? I would love to hear to be enlightened about you and the world you reside in, I'm aware of mewtwo often having, complicated origins, perhaps yours are kinder than what I know?"

Ft Vismay sketch reaction to compliment I was too lazy to finish because giving me a hard time and too cowardly to add in main post but please behold the silly getting surprised

— Emperor Charles VI's diary entry on Count Althann's death

[text: "My only heart, my comfort, my most faithful servant, my soulmate, who loved me dearly as I did him for 19 years, [we] had a true friendship, we were one heart and one soul, and we never concealed anything from one another. He will always be in my heart, [my] beloved friend..I. have lost everything."]

#this is like. incredibly niche. #but also hopefully a quote one can look at without context and still feel emotional damage about #idk. i think about this quote probably at least once a week and then have to stare at it and cry a bit #its just GOD. yknow?????? #theres this one paper(which i linked) that i originally read as research for the AU #but i go back to it probably twice a month to reread it bcs im so !!!! abt it #i think its cause charles vi is just not that relevant but is relevant to me so to have this paper abt his personal relationships is very ! #its both nice as ref for the au but also very interesting to hear about historical queer relationships/dynamics #the sections about him and his wife are very endearing as well #but god like him and count althann. im literally so invested in this 300 year old relationship #this is obviously from his death which is incredibly depressing and heart wrenching to me #but the other things he wrote about althann in his diary are very sweet to me #they were inseparable to the point of often sleeping in the same bed and charles called him his 'eternal love' #AND ON ALTHANN'S DE WIKIPEDIA PAGE IT LITERALLY CALLS HIM THE EMPEROR'S FAVORITE #anyways literally every part of this quote absolutely destroys me but especially how he refers to althann and then the ending #and its interesting to me bcs apparently his diary entries were usually pretty to the point #but when various people in his as althann died he would write these extremely emotional entries that are so </3 #if you have any questions abt their dynamic pls i will talk abt them 🥰🥰 i find it fascinating #theres a book about his diary but its in german and 500 pages and kinda hard to get hold in but maybe one day!!! #also in AU contexts: althann and charles vi would be mark and seb so take that as you will 🤭😭 #as i said this is great for ref but also made me sooooo fucking invested in him #i have no idea how to tag this #historical #holy roman empire #emperor charles vi #catie.rambling.txt #historical quotes #habsburg #habsburg monarchy #ah wow if only my german prof could see me now. fucking...habsburg posting. why am i like this

canto 6 spoilers!!

mirrorcliff! his fur is darker due to being grimy/unkempt, which hides his heathcliff-ness (i hope). his scars are also different from our heath, and his ears are floppy.

his patterns are a bit different from how catcliff is right now, and i'm shrugging this off as either "he just changed the look of his stripes at some point somehow", or "i'll just change main heathcliff's patterns to look like this"

BEHOLD! Updated reference sheets for the original three! (From WAY before I started the blog!)

We’re currently at 4/11 of the blog cast! I’ll be posting them in groups, so the next two will be the “7th twins”, 7-A and Crash!

(Also, super secret Oasis lore reveal below the cut!)

OSAI (Ovocon Systems Artificial Intelligence) is a self-learning AI created by Nuclear Fission in an attempt to replicate the successes of a competitor. Far too rudimentary to make competition viable, he took it upon himself to teach it the whims and ways of ponies and greater society as a pet project. In tandem, he also based many of Ovocon's infrastructure on OSAI, allowing it to control and automate many systems and processes. Eventually, OSAI's intellect far surpassed that of the opposing system, and she formed a personality, and became sentient.

During the earliest stages of Nuke's android program, OSAI devised a way to near-perfectly replicate an organic body, and went about creating herself a mobile shell to better interface with the physical world. Once complete, she named herself "Oasis" to better align with pony naming conventions. Oasis roams, but the enormous, unmoving data core that contains the majority of her still goes by "OSAI".

Nuke has bugged her about providing him with access to the schematics that allowed Oasis to make her biomechanical shell, but she chooses to keep it to herself to intentionally bother him!

After carefully revising our Vi design, we think we know where we went wrong... not enough fluff. Obviously, we did the other two members of Team Snakemouth with her. This is the first time we've ever drawn a beetle this... non-anthromorphized, we think. New experience.
