WIP Wednesday Thursday
Tagged by @salsedinepicta and @hollytree33, thank you very much! <3 It's the next day, but Glaze didn't want me to post yesterday apparently. And yes I toggled all the options but "to trust is good, not to trust is better".
Tumblr media
Some expression chart of Aisling, this time in Whale AU shores. Top right one is my favourite, and it isn't really her if she's not crying in at least three ones.
Going on with the symbolism one, I'm kinda stuck over the object for Miss Trash Raccoon. I'd put a trashcan but I already painted one in the chart.
A collage from my sketchbook: I was in the dukedom of Prosciutto last week for some work, and I scribbled something. Always Whale AU themed. I am very upsed there's so few paintings themed around the Orlando Furioso, I referenced the possibly one I found. Raina in this iteration has more themes taken from that poem (lost her wisdom upon the moon). Some smooching as I listened to Hozier's I, Carrion (Icarian), which quickly became their love theme. And some random storyboards which I don't know if I'll keep. I found a piece of lore which gave me an idea for some comic pages to start... but it was in a book whose authors wrote for a broadcast notorious for featuring conspiracies and being very historically inaccurate. Think history channel, but worse. (Sì sto parlando di Mistero.)(I bought some books in a rush and didn't check the authors in the store). It needs to be double checked: I haven't found anything on the internet, but I have other books on lore from Alghero on which I hope to find a confirmation. Meanwhile, it's there.
Oh wow it's another wall of text! :"D Sorry, oops.
Tagging! @shivunin @ndostairlyrium @underneathestars @pinayelf @blarrghe @dreadfutures @inquisimer @dungeons-and-dragon-age @daggerbean and YOU!

whale au? 🐋🤲🥺
It was a rare thing to be seen. Most often Christine Daae felt looked at. The youngest to graduate from her university, she didn’t quite look the part that people expected of her role —the other marine biologists in her class were not generally so short or delicate, with a freckled face full of enthusiasm befitting someone who yet to be bogged down by the ever nagging lack of funding, the cruelty of the world, and the harshness of nature itself. They usually had a better support system, typically at least one parent there to pay bills when things got hard, a home to return to during summers, someone to take photos of them as they walked across the stage to receive a hard earned diploma. They typically did not have a lab playlist that went from opera to indie rock to classical to heavy metal all in the span of an hour. 
But Christine was hardly typical. And when people looked at her for her eccentricities, there was one person who truly saw her. 
Raoul de Chagny was known by most for his last name alone—the recipient of a wealthy inheritance from a problematic family, now tragically consisting only of himself and a playboy older brother who, on occasion, made the tabloids, and a sister who had, perhaps wisely, faded into obscurity. But Raoul wanted something different for his life, something more than just to be the rich boy he so easily could be. He wanted to make a difference in the world.
It was that same drive to be better than yesterday, to leave the world a little better than it was found, that connected him with Christine. When he looked at her, he saw a dedicated scientist who wasn’t afraid to work outside the box and was going to change the world with her compassion. When she looked at him, she saw a person making their own path in life, someone who dared to blaze their own trail instead of follow what was set before them, someone who knew there must be something better out there and wouldn’t rest until it was found. 
They looked at each other, and they <i>saw</i>.

Whale Shark Sun and Moon and Poacher Y/n!
Sun and Moon wander around a small chain of islands. They can be seen hanging out with normal whale sharks.
Sun likes to go to the surface and see the local fisherman. People love to see him as well. He will prank people by splashing them, popping out of the water and spooking them, and bumping their boats if they are dozing. He is a little too trusting and that can get him into trouble. Sun loves to be pet.
Moon is way more shy. He was hurt badly by poachers once. He stays away from the surface. He only comes close to the surface at night. It's seen as a blessing if you even catch a glimpse of him. In reality he is always with his brother, but he just stays deeper under water so no one can see him. Moon may be touch-starved.
Y/n works for a group of poachers called the Purple Rabbit. Their parents were part of this organization and forced Y/n into it. Y/n's parents are abusive and gave them their scar. Purple Rabbit hunts rare and endangered sea animals for the black market.
Purple Rabbit sent you to a protected remote island to harpoon for sharks. But you get stranded on the island during an accident. You're able to salvage some things from your boat, but most of the supplies was washed overboard. At least the island has food and fresh water on it. Maybe if you can build a raft, you could get to a populated island. You know were one is and even know some of the locals that live there. It could take days to get there on a raft, weeks even. But you knew no one was going to come looking for you. Especially not your parents. They told you not to come back until you caught something good. That wasn't going to happen. You're harpoon gun was gone. You didn't mind, though. It's not like you enjoy killing animals. You were indifferent about it. It was just business. Everything was. That's what you're parents told you, anyway. Maybe being by yourself was wasn't so bad... But you're not as alone as you think...

Prompt 278
You know what I’ve gotten obsessed with and inspired by? Dredge. 
You know what is also fun? Merfolk. What’s even better? Lovecraftian corrupted merfolk. Especially if say, one goes with the Lazarus Waters being a form of ectoplasm. So, in this? Lazarus waters are like lakes, while Amity Park, thanks to the Portal, and the barriers? It is an entire sea. 
There are islands, small areas that were once the tips of buildings that have gathered more landmass around them. There are mangroves, trees not like anything on earth or anywhere else stretching up in canopies dark enough to block out the sun, yet lit by the green waters. 
It goes deep. Mariana Trench deep, despite it being impossible. The GIW have explored for caves or tunnels, they’ve tried to find some sort of explanation, but there isn’t one. 
Now all that ecto? That has an effect on people. They mutate, they change, they adapt. Anywhere else would have been a slow death- something the GIW might have even been counting on. But Amity Park? It was founded by witches, it was the hotspot for the supernatural, even before the Fentonwork Portal. They’ve been dealing with this sort of energy in microdoses from the moment they first began to live in the city in any generation. 
But they begin to adapt. Shift into something… other. Some stay contaminated, clinging to human forms as they form homes on the tiny islands, fishing and farming what they can. Others become Liminal, almost seeming to meld with fish, some similar to ones of the Living and others something just to the left. Similar yes, but not quite… right. And then there are those that have truly melded with the energy of the dead, forms torn asunder by it, ripped apart and made anew by it. 
The first sign back when the barrier was activated, when they could no longer leave and were trapped were the fish in the lake. And now they are the same, with gazes of something Else, with gnashing teeth and a hunger gnawing at where hearts once were. 
But they aren’t monsters. They’re still themselves. Just a little… Other now.

WIP (not) Wednesday
Tagged by @plisuu, thank you so much! :) This week has been hectic work-wise, but I scraped some time to work on a couple of things...
Tumblr media
Kieran is a very spoiled child on some accounts, but Karens never last long in Amaranthine, for unknown reasons. Something in the water, clearly.
Some more Whale Au which is not an AU anymore, working on the gals. Darkened Aisling's hair a little to see how it is. Raina got a little in the sun, and her shirt is not correct for the time period (I forgot Edwardian shirts had detachable collars) and it should be corrected. The books is titled "Whales are better than you" and in this universe too she doesn't wear neither black nor white if she can help it. While Raina only wears black, white and red.

Whalemack!
He’s a gray/grey whale, very nice and VERY big (though about half the size of a blue whale). He’s been mostly solitary for a while, sometimes joining other whales on their migrations, but then he starts collecting little mer children that make travel hard. I’ll probably add some scars from boats/etc to this design. And we need to figure out if mers have tattoos 🧐

True Lab dinner
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
MTT-Brand Burger Emporium is the closest restaurant to the lab. And because of Alphys relationship with Mettaton she probably has a discount on that place. So she probably buys food there for the Amalgamates. But I don’t think that Kanako would like the Glamburger… Would probably remind her of the Feisty Slider back home… Where her mother is… She would probably miss home even more…
(After calming down)
Tumblr media
And I don’t think she would be big fan of the Glamburger after being used to eating more traditional burgers (at least I think that Dina makes her food in the saloon and isn’t any brand food)
