Side with me kid, I'll have your back

Side with me kid, I'll have your back
Count me in when, Confidence is all you lack
Price is simple, rather sparing
Time is slipping; life is choices let's start living

I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG HELP

Basically been listening to this on repeat for the past several days as I work on commissions and other stuff and this because inspiration was like "Hey! Stop doing important stuff and draw this!" and I was like "k"

But seriously, help, I love this song



Oh, and it's not weird that something meant for a fandom that I'm in inspired a scene for my original content, right...?  Oh, it is?  ....Whoops.


I've said I didn't make any new years resolutions because I can never keep them, right?  Well, while thinking about it (in January) I decided "hey, why dont I make my new years resolution 'dont make any new stories/non-group projects'?"
Welp I failed.
THIS IS WHY I DONT DO NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS

...In my defense, though, the story started being developed in December.  But neither of these characters were in the story at that time hahaha also I didn't want to do anything with it, I wanted it to go away.  Just like Majjikku.  And guess what - here I am, making artwork for both of those things

Anywho, I actually shouldn't be calling this a story.  Obviously it IS a story, but a story is a written work.  This is not going to be a written work - it's gonna be a game.  THASSRIGHT, STORMY'S ACTUALLY GONNA WORK ON SOMETHING TO HELP HERSELF REACH WHAT SHE WANTS TO MAJOR IN-  (well, Game Deisgn or Screenwriting, ironically neither of which I'm actively working on I:L)

But anyway, if I cant figure out how to make a game out of this, I just won't make it.  I literally can't see this as anything but a game.  Like Majjikku could pretty much be anything (although I want to make it a comic), same with Oneiromon, Spirits I'd love to draw but I cant haha, but this?  This is a game, through and through.  If I can't make a game out of it, I'm not telling the story.  uvu

That being said, I'm not telling you anything about the game HEHEHEHE other than the fact that it's an RPG that I plan to put a lot of plot into.  Basically, you pick one of 2-4 characters that you play as for the rest of the game (two of them are set in stone, but I have to decide on the designs of the other one[s])  For the most part, you fight on your own (the battles will probably almost all be 1v1 though) but you can occasionally gain a friend to help you fight.  There will be secrets in the game, and I just realized that I should shut up because 1. I said I wasn't going to say anything about the game... and 2. this picture is actually kinda spoilers, oops...

OH WELL, NO ONE KNOWS THE CONTEXT  (also idk how much of a spoiler this is, because tbh I havent developed this nearly enough)


Anywho, the cat...robot...thing is kinda a chaotic wildcard and whether or not he's a bad guy is kinda up to you.  Her design was originally as a sona for me but then I set a new record for how quickly I lost a sona to another character   Their personality was, well, inspired by the song above and likewise Bill himself, but they're honestly more neutral and just plain insane than actually bad haha.  (Quite a difference from the original personality that I thought they would involve into, if they were going to loose their spot as a sona that is - originally his personality was incredibly carefree and happy.  He's...still carefree and happy, but in a much more insane, worrying way than before haha.  Before he was definitely a good guy and was more endearing and annoying than terrifying haha)
_{Also the reason their pronouns keep changing is because they're a robot and they dont have a gender.  They/them is probably most appropriate, but she really doesn't give a hoot about pronouns.}

The monkey magician thing is one of the protagonist choices, and they specialize in their attack variety.  Each of the starters has something that they specialize in - for example, the other starter I've decided on is high in defense.  This one's specialty is attack variety, and their attack status isn't too shabby (but probably not the highest) but their defense is on the weak side.  Their personality is up for the player to decide, but the personality I imagine giving this fella is basically a good, non-threatening version of the other guy haha.
_{They dont have a gender, because similar to how I percieve Frisk, its supposed to be the same gender as the player}

Also neither of them have names because I just realized they dont have names, oops.



Anyway as for the drawing, Ehhh I'm not too happy with how it came out, but I'm not surprised given the fact that I didn't like how the sketch itself looked.  If the sketch looks bad, it seems like the rest of the project turns out bad.  Oh well - at least I finally did another full drawing aha.
Also I learned more about effects and learned how to make binary/digital backgrounds, noice  (Also this happened while I was working on it so win win haha)



....Wow that turned out long  Well I'm gonna go watch MatPat play FNAF World some more, because I'm lazy and I'm behind (I'm still on the third part rip)
