Watching a friend play Undertale for the first time - and making some more friends along the way - is a really wonderful thing #undertale #onionsan #art

#TomodachiLife #TADC #Kinger #TLLTD I spent way too much time on this - but surprisingly not as much time as I thought it would

When someone is too locked in on the relationships built up within a story that they can't bring themselves to interfere even in a choose-your-own-adventure setting (it's me I'm someone)

#SLAYTOBER The Path in the Woods [Day 2: The Cabin] Will I see you on the other side? [Day 31: Happily Ever After] Let's find out together #SlayThePrincess

Light shines out through a barred window beneath a starry night. An occupied cabin sits in shadow. Endless possibilities await you inside. This is only just the beginning.

Light shines in through a barred window beneath a new dawn. A pristine blade and shackle lay abandoned and illuminated. Endless possibilities await you outside. This is only just the beginning.

#SLAYTOBER The Path of Volition [Day 3: The Princess] That's your cue, Hero [Day 10: The Damsel] Stick to the script, Princess #SlayThePrincess

The Princess without her crown, featureless yet illuminated before a dark backdrop that holds her in place. Her dress is torn, and there's a hint of blood that can be seen behind her and through her.

Originally drawn and captioned for Slaytober day 3

A crude illustration on the back of a screenplay. It depicts the Damsel in front of a hilltop cabin beneath a starry night, standing next to what appears to be two beady eyes amidst indecipherable scrawls. The scrawls are further obscured by a blurred shadow, and the paper itself is burning.

Notably, the screenplay is of the moments where the Damsel is freed from the cabin, but without any interjecting inner voices, nor any pushback from the narrator.

The Thorn brushes past the warmly lit bramble around her, looking back at you with tired excitement as you make your way toward the light that shines into the place that held her.

#SLAYTOBER Day 22: The Princess and The Dragon A person. A set of eyes witnessing from one perspective. I think you are more like me than you are a person. #SlayThePrincess

Two dragons, one black and feathered, the other white and horned. They are poised, back to back, each one's tail curled to face the other, and at the end of each tail is a visage of themselves, of the princess and the quiet, opposing the opposite.

These two are one and the same. They fear and rely on each other. They are more than a single set of eyes.

#SLAYTOBER Day 21: The Cage Before everything stays the same #SlayThePrincess

The head of a princess sits above a pristine blade, both submerged in blood, both within an hourglass cage.
Turn it over, and the cycle repeats.

#SLAYTOBER Day 20: The Den Shaped by your fear. Moved by your reach. Above you. #SlayThePrincess

From below, we see a feathered dark creature wielding a pristine blade. Beyond, a pale creature lines the den that surrounds them - the Den herself - barely perceptible, intently watching.

She observes your movements, waiting for the first one you make when, or if you notice her.

#SLAYTOBER Day 19: The Apotheosis Cursed is she to rise within you #SlayThePrincess

Even in her grace, adorning a crown of eternal light, do tendrils of absence ensnare and limit her

#SLAYTOBER Day 17: The Stranger Did she do this? Did you do this? Is stained glass considered broken, or whole? Would seeing beauty diminish the suffering? It's okay to look. It's okay to be seen. It's okay to be afraid. It's okay to be warm. Acknowledge her Remember her #SlayThePrincess

An amalgamation of princesses sit together, cramped into one shackle. You carry possibilities - revealed by the colours reflected off the light from her barred window. Each face, pained and warped, is illuminated by the faint visage of herselves and herself made happy.

Unshackled in an empty world, she is still a prisoner. Facing light as it consumes the horizon, she does not flinch.

#SLAYTOBER Day 1: The Pristine Blade Really enjoyed learning this style! Uniquely unapologetic and simplistically ornate, just like the Blade. It's wonderful to see what can be done by fretting less and focusing on the bigger picture (Reposting a day late to fix the tags, whoops) #SlayThePrincess

The Pristine Blade from Slay the Princess striking a rocky floor, heavily referencing the style, lighting and setting of a scene from the game itself
