For those of you wondering wtf ive been working on this week….here it is.

Apologies to my SU fans. T^T But AngelHusk has my heart in it’s grip & I’ve been wanting to draw some sort of comic for a while now from part of one of my fave fanfics for the ship: Old Soldiers of Different Wars by AngeliaDark ( @angelia-dark here on tumblr)

ignore the green/red void beyond the bar/desk pls ^^;

The Angel Dust posse

I never thought I would ship these two and here I am… with my new and ultimate OTP

Caught in his web…

Some doodles I made

get away from him, girl. get a job.

Stolas’s Song

Because Angel and Husk hang around each other a lot they start copying each other's manners/habits/speech patterns without noticing. Husk is getting progressively more dramatic and Angel starts doing a lot of deadpan humor.

Since I aparently predicted that Husk was going to babysit Fat Nuggets, I wonder what other things that I wrote in some of my one shots could be canon

Let's see some of the things I wrote:

Angel discovers that Husk can purr

Angel discovers that some of the romantic things that he do with Husk makes him flustered, but he likes it

Husk give Angel some roses bc of Valentine's Day (my favorite os tbh)

Husk almost throws hands at Valentino

Angel discovers that Husk doesn't like fireworks bc it gives him some flashbacks from the war

They met when they were alive

Angel goes to Charlie just to ask some romantic advice

Angel and Husk take a bath together

Their first kiss was difficult for both of them

Hope some of this becames canon

Something I noticed Angel and Husk have in common is their complicated relationship with romance. Vivzie has said in a stream before that Angel is sexually provacative in part because he feels like that's what's expected of him, and that it would be explored later on in the show.

And of course, there's Husk's line "I lost the ability to love years ago"...

I just want to see Husk slowly become more comfortable around Angel and learn to love again while Angel sees his worth beyond his sexuality and that he's deserving of romance that's it that's all I want!

So can we just discuss how Husk finds reasons to get Angel’s attention by commenting even if it’s just “eh” 

Husk claims he could make something better, saying it wouldn’t be difficult.

Angel takes him up on that offer

As response, Husk totally made him the sandwich.

He definitely outed himself, not so subtle Husker tsk tsk tsk. Angel never said Husk made the food for him, only that it was gifted. But Husk couldn’t help himself by having a strong reaction automatically taking credit.

Little Husker gifting a sandwich,,, which he TOTALLY didn’t make for Angel SPECIFICALLY, he just HAPPENED to have EXTRA left over, and he figured ANGEL could finally SHUT TF UP if he gave him HIS sandwich.

^^^is probably what he would claim as a tsundere but we all the know truth 

Husk makes sure Angel is fed in his own “I care about your well-being but I have to pretend I don’t or else you might notice” kind of way. He looks after him more that the rat man, that’s for damn sure.

Also is it just me or is Angel wearing “Husk tones” in that last pic? His outfit colors remind me of Husk~

Can't stop thinking about huskerdust....

I'd like to think that husk is slow to warm up to ppl. Since apparently he's a war vet he's probably too scared to get close to others thinking he might lose them. But then angel dust comes along and just annoys the fuck out of him with all this constant flirting. Like they both know husk isn't gonna fall for angel's flirting but angel loves bothering him and seeing his reaction. And a tiny bit of him is kinda glad husk doesn't really wanna do anything with him, so he warms up to husk a lot quicker than husk warms up to him.

The flirting becomes less and it's more like they're talking like old pals and doing things together in the hotel that seem very domestic. I mean angel trusted husk enough to look after fat nuggets and so angel has continued to get him to babysit. Sometimes they'll go out together as thanks for the babysitting and they end up enjoying their time together. At some point they'll be hanging out or something and husk will unconsciously think about how good angel dust looks today or how he loves his laugh or some other gay shit and realizes "oh fuck, I think i might have feelings for him." He doesn't let it show of course but he probably becomes a little more distant without really realizing it

Angel dust corners him and pesters husk wondering what's wrong and why he's acting differently. He'll deny it of course but angel is stupid and they end up yelling at each other only for one of them to accidently confess. They're both stunned into silence and then they slowly lean into each other for a kiss. It's nothing amazing, just a simple peck on the lips but it's absolutely perfect.

I was thinking about Husk's line in the pilot where he says that he lost the ability to love. Maybe it's just me reaching\projecting, but that gave me the idea that he might be demiromantic.

Just imagine him forming a friendship with someone *cough*Angel*cough*and then one day, long into the friendship, the realization hits that he's developed feelings for the person. I imagine his reaction would just have him briefly going wide eyed while probably thinking something along the lines of "oh... FUCK!"

Angelhusk/Huskerdust Headcanons

Since more content’s come out and we’ve been fed some great angelhusk food, gonna update my headcanons from this old post: Unchanged - Husk is VERY self conscious about his cat form, while Angel finds it adorable and constantly lets him know this.

- While Angel is a very sexual person, more innocent acts of affection like hand-holding or cuddling tend to fluster him pretty easily, Husk finds that out quickly cuz all he wants to do at the start of the relationship is cuddle.

- Once he became comfortable enough around Angel, Husk revealed how cuddly he is by using him as a pillow any chance he gets.

‐ Angel was never really into poker, but will play with Husk because he knows how much he loves it.

- Angel LOVES magic tricks, and Husk loves performing them for him.

- Angel loves playing with the heart beans🧡 

- They have movie nights where they make fun of bad movies (including some of Angel’s older films👀)

- Husk loves Angel’s cooking, and will try to cook for him in return but it tends not to go well. Angel always eats it anyway. After listing all the things he did wrong.

Changed - The first time Angel heard Husk purr was when he was rubbing his ears, and it was so unexpected that he fell off the fukin couch

- Angel doing sex work doesn’t bother Husk, but Angel working for Valentino does. When Husk realizes how shitty Val is to him, Husk tries to help Angel find loopholes in whatever contract(if the contract/deal headcanon turns out to be right) Angel has with him

New

- Whenever Angel has a panic attack, Husk calms him down using what he’s had to learn from dealing with his own PTSD

- Husk makes sure to watch Fat Nuggets for Angel anytime he can after he realizes Val likes to use the bby to threaten Angel TwT - They’ll both flirt in Italian when in public🥰 

- They’ll bond over stuff from when they were alive, like music, movies that were just coming out, world events, etc;

- Husk learns about Angel’s favorite sweets/drinks and will surprise him with them randomly

- They’ll take Fat Nuggets on lil’ family outings🥺

Psssst hey...u got any Angel Dust x Husk headcanons?...

HEHEHE I got a few~

-Husk loves Angel's cooking, and will try to cook for him in return but it tends not to go well. Angel always eats it anyway. After listing all the things he did wrong.

I love the parallels between these two pictures of the envelope, the envelope Angel gave him is visually pleasing, warm, and inviting. While the envelope Angel got back is drawn more clunky, jagged, ripped and darker tones were used. I’m also no expert on wax seals but it looks like husk carefully pealed off the wax shaped heart and kept it since it doesn’t appear attached to the envelope anymore which means Husk had to tape it to seal it again.

Anyway thanks to all of Angel’s hard work the effort has finally payed off, he gathered the money to pay Husk back for what he thinks he’s owed. Looks like his time spent at Val’s wasn’t all for nothing, he was able to collect quite the pretty penny—all of which he was willing to give to husk, in order for them to start talking again.

I assume Angel’s bar tab was pretty high up there, for there to be so many bills he handed over. But surprisingly enough Husk refuses to exploit Angel and his money, he doesn’t want to take advantage of his obviously hard earned cash, so he takes $5 and leaves the rest at Angel’s disposal. 

Husk made that huge ass fuss, ignored Angel’s posts, banned him from the bar, all of that just to settle for merely five dollars. I’m screaming.

I think Angel’s feelings might have been hurt, Husk could possibly have come off as a little ungrateful or rude in his eyes when refusing the money. “Pfft aight then. Rest is going ta @SmellyRatMan❤️” aka: “Fine be that way. I’ll just give it to Val.” proceeding to go back to Valentino. From Angel’s perspective he worked his ass off and went through all of that shit just to pay him back because it was HUSK that made a big deal out of it in the first place, and all he took was FIVE DOLLARS.

Tbh I’d be a lil heated if I were him too lol but I could be wrong.

Zero hearts for Husk for once??? what in the–

OH and look who else commented 😒 he’s run back into the arms of the damn rat and HE GETS TWO HEARTS ARE YOU KIDDINGMEANGEL—

So yeah I don’t blame Angel if he’s a bit upset right now. We all know why Husk didn’t take much money, it’s because he’s a softie, cares a shit ton and doesn’t take want to take advantage of Angel’s already delicate situation.

But Angel doesn’t know why. He may believe Husk just doesn’t give a shit meaning Angel put in all that effort into getting the money for nothing.

So in the end Angel doesn’t seem alright. At all. This sort of reminds me of the “My boyfriend broke my heart so I’ll run to my ex for affection” scenario.

I’m honestly worried about Angel’s well-being, he’s using again while staying with an abusive douche and it seems to just be getting worse. This can’t end well, but I believe if anyone were able to talk some sense into Angel, it would be Husk. 

I feel like Husk’s opinion matters most to Angel, out of everybody in the hotel I’d say he is the closest chance on getting Angel back to the straight and narrow. Meanwhile Val is just constantly enabling him to do bad.

Angel would listen if it was Husk that told him to get the hell back to the hotel and keep him company, you know what I mean? But if it were anyone else, they’d get the middle finger just like Charlie did.

Well I’m just happy our boys are back to talking again….ish? We were also robbed of seeing a cute little love letter hidden inside the envelope. Someone please draw this and tag me.

Huskerdust week Day two:Mirror

Ange Dust looks into the mirror. Placing a new blonde wig on his head. His top set of arms added a coat of dark red lipstick. His middle set of arms adjusted the size of his bossom. He was wearing a new skin tight pink dress.

Husk wrapped his arm's around his waist from behind. His chin rested on his shoulder. "You look beautiful mia regina." He kissed the spiders cheek.

"Thanks kitty. Ya look really handsome in your new tie." Angel giggled. He used his bottom set of arms to wrap around Husk's waist. Drawing him in closer.

"See ya can be sweet, when your not a total bitch." Husk spoke as he drank on the smell of his boyfriend's perfume.

Angel rolled his mismatched eyes.

When the porn star returned that night he was exhausted. He placed his wig carefully on a stand. Quickly changing into a baggy pair of pyjamas. He was too lazy to take off his makeup. Most of it had come off with sweat anyway.

The spider ploped down on the bed. Right next to his man who was hardly awake. "I know I look like shit right now. Just pretend you didn't see me."

Husk moved closer to Angel and cupped his face in his paws. "You look even lovelier than you did this morning."

Angel could feel his heart begin to swell. He loved this man so much. He couldn't find the words to express it. So he showed him with a kiss.

Drinks and a lame party. [HuskerDust oneshot]

Artist of picture above: 

Alright, @randompersonnumber3​ and @spiderwithatommygun​ This ones for you two.

Fair warning. This is my first time writing HuskerDust. Still hope you enjoy it

.

             To say Angel was having fun would be a load of bullshit. He groaned from his spot against the wall of the large ballroom. Tonight Charlie, Vaggie, and that strawberry pimp had organized a party for to people of hell. Or simply put, to get some demons in this place. 

When the spider heard ‘party’ you could imagine his excitement looking forward tonight. He hadn’t the chance to have been at an actual party in a month thanks to Charlie and that shit. But as he looked across the ballroom this was not his idea of a party.

He grimaced as he looked again. 

Classical music filled the room, like something rich people would play at one of them fancy parties. What was worse, every demon in here was dressed all nice, men in suits women in fancy dresses. Hell, even the food was fucking refined. 

 Even he himself was forced to wear this classy clothing. Pink blazer white pants, something similar to what Alastor had thrown him into on the day he showed up.

At least he got to wear his boots.

Where was the loud club music! And the flashing lights, the smell of sex and drugs, the alcohol shitty food, and people in shitty clothes! 

Angel huffed, his mind backtracking a few steps. 

Wait.

Alcohol.

As if his mind followed his new train of thought they traveled across the room. Tucked against one of the far walls, sporing his white button-up and tie was the bar cat he always messed with. Angel grinned, a new idea coming to his mind. 

Putting his plan into action Angel strutted over to the bar cat.

Husk was in the middle of pouring some high-class demon a drink in one of those wine glasses. She was a cat-like demon, her fur a dark brown. And that red curly hair matched the classy dress she wore. 

As he got closer, Husk not even noticing him yet, he realized that the same demon was taking her own jabs at him. “Oh come on…I’ll make your night more interesting than this.” She purred, her tail wagging a little. Husk was obviously uncomfortable and giving about the same reaction he did with Angel’s flirting.

“Fuck off.” Angel snickered when the cat girl cocked her head back. All in the same minute she got up from the bar and walked away with her nose up in the air. His brows only knitted together when he caught sight of the spider taking her place on the stool.

There wasn’t anyone at the bar beside the two of them. Everyone was busy trying to harass Charlie for this only to be backed up by Vaggie and Alastor. And Nifty was busy picking up any little speck of dirt left by these fools.

So that just left them.

“What do you want.” Husk growled, he didn’t sound angry his voice was just naturally deep like that. Not that it bothered Angel. His cheeks were also a light tint of pink, so he assumed Husk had already been drinking, that wasn’t surprising. 

Angel smiled, leaning the lower sets of his arms on the bar while the first pair supported his face. “Oh come on Husky, you know by now.” While the tone of Angel’s voice suggested something else, he was in fact talking about alcohol. Husk groaned again but was already getting a bottle. And like Angel had found the winged cat doing lately, he grabbed two shot glasses and set them on the bar before pouring.

“Surprised your not dead with that kid throwing you around all night.” He was referring to Charlie showing Angel off as her newest ‘project’. He didn’t really like that word but didn’t care enough to do anything about it.

“I could say the same to you.” Angel laughed, picking up one of the shot glasses and effortlessly throwing it to the back of his throat. Husk seemed to do it at the same time before both their classes hit the counter again. “With girls like that? Thought ya woulda killed someone by now.” 

Husk used his tail to hold the bottle and fill the glasses again. He laid an arm on the counter while the other picked up the glass. “Compared to bein around you for a few months, they ain’t shit.” Angel snickered, shooting his shot back again.

“Awww, that’s so sweet.” Husk rolled his eyes, his ears folding back as he looked away for a moment. 

“Your more annoyin’ then them. Ain’t hard.” Angel’s smile didn’t falter despite the counter. Husk had a hard exterior but in these few months, Angel had come to know that he had a soft side too. And he had been lucky enough to see it for himself. 

“Oh stop, your makin’ me blush.” Angel joked, despite his cheeks actually tinting a light pink from the alcohol. Husk rolled his eyes, ignoring him. 

For a short time, the pair fell silent just exchanging drinks and trying to ignore the classical music that penetrated both their ears. (Yes Angel has ears.) After about four shots neither were perse drunk but both had a healthy amount of red to their cheeks. It was then Husk spoke up, “do you wanna go sit in the lobby and continue this? This shits hurting my ears.” Husk complained his ears pressing down to his head as a response. 

The music had gotten a little louder, that or the alcohol made both of their senses hyper-aware. “If ya wanted to be alone with me ya coulda just asked.” The spider purred with a smirk.

Husk was already moving away from the bar in the ballroom, one Alastor had just conjured here. His tail had hooked itself around a stray bottle as he walked away from the bar. “If your gonna be like that then your ass can stay here.” He grumbled. 

“No no–” Angel grabbed the cat’s arm as he was about to pass him. Husk didn’t exactly jerk away from him but he did flinch. “I’ll behave.” A lie.

Husk knew it was. But whether it was the whiskey in his system or just some stray moment of kindness that didn’t belong there, he found himself saying “then come on. My fucking ears hurt.” 

Angel grinned happily at the invitation and followed Husk out of the room. The opening and closing of the door were barely noticed by anyone in the room.

The lobby was quiet and empty. 

The pair took refuge on one of the couches far too large to be normal. They promptly continued their drinking once Husk grabbed a few extra bottles from the bar in the lobby. As they continued their shots somewhere at some point they began to exchange stories with each other. 

“So then I blew his head off and took the cash.” Angel laughed, and Husk found himself laughing too. 

“You just shot him and left.” Angel, still laughing nodded. 

“I mean, the sex wasn’t bad but like, he wasn’t gonna pay so.” Angel made a gun with his fingers aiming it at Husk. “Bang.” He said playfully and resumed his laughing. Something rare happened then. And Angel witnessed it first hand. 

The bar cat was smiling. 

Angel stopped laughing for a second and set his shot down. “Is that a smile I see?” He grinned, Husk rolled his eyes. His smile promptly fading. He shook his head. Angel found himself frowning as well.

He sighed leaning forward and covered his arms face. “Sorry sorry. Fuck I ruined it.” He muttered. Husk looked at him confused. Before he could ask why, or question why he cared, Angel looked at him with guilt lacing his face. “It’s just…nice to see ya smile. Y’know? It’s, nice to see you happy for once.” 

Husk stared at Angel for a time, his ears perking up and tail swaying. Angel stared back, worried he’d only made it worse. But the pair of lips that suddenly pressed to his said otherwise. 

The spider didn’t hesitate and easily melted into the kiss that tasted strongly of whiskey. He grabbed the fronts of Husk shirt tilting his head and the bar cat didn’t seem to mind. Angel had through it would go were these things normally did. But the denied acess past his lips and to his mouth seemed to say otherwise. 

Still, he didn’t push Angel away. In fact he pulled the spider onto his lap to which the other greatly complied. He kissed the spiders lips not with hunger but something similar to desire. His claws rested on the tallers hips and Angels sets of hands rested somewhere on Husks shoulders or chest. 

After a minute the kiss finally broke, both panting heavily. The smell of alchoahul and whisky in both of their breaths. But as Angel leaned back in he was promtply stopped by the claw on his chest. He looked at the bar cat confused and baffled. Husk only met the spiders eyes, not with anger like he expected he had looked strangly calm.

“That’s enough.” He said softly. Angel frowned, pouting slightly. “Oh don’t give me that look. Your drunk an’ I know what happens with this shit when your drunk.” Angel sighed, leaning down and resting his head on Husks shoulder. He expected the cat to push him off, but he only felt the claws come to hold him a little tighter. 

Angel let out a weak laugh into the silent hall. “So ya’ just kissed me ‘cause your drunk?” There was a long pause and an aduible gulp on Husks part. A shaky breath escaped his lips. 

“No.” Was all he said. But that was enough for Angel. 

They stayed like that for a few minutes…before Husk gently pushed Angel back. Once again he met the spiders eyes, but this time his expression came with a smile. “Now drag your ass to your room before you fuckin’ pass out here.” Angel blushed, smiling himself. Husk ears folded back in relization of what he was saying. His own cheeks became a shade redder as he looked away. 

“I mean..you know how fuckin’ hard it is to drag your ass up those stairs.” Angel huffed out a laugh as he climbed off the cats lap. 

“Alrigh’ I’m goin’. Wouldn’t wanna worry ya.” A more sincere tone carried his words compared to the usual teasing. Husk watched the spider pause at the bottom of the stairs, about to go up them. But he looked at the bar cat and gave a genuine smile. 

“Goodnight…Husk.” That unfamilar feeling he hadn’t felt in years…that feeling he’d been afraid to feel again swarmed his chest. And without realizing it the corners of his lips pointed up. 

“Goodnight, Angel.” The spider stared surprised for a momment. He waved, finally heading up the stairs. 

Once Angel was out of sight the cat-demon groaned holding his face. 

The racing of his heart.

That strange tingling feeling on his lips. 

The warm feeling.

The cold feeling of him being gone.

“Fuck..not again.”

do u guys ever think about how hard huskerdust is teased by the crew and how like its almost guaranteed gonna be canon and like we are actually literally gonna see husk and angel fall in love with each other like idk man life sucks but thats the shit that really makes me wanna keep going god bless

Close to Me

A Huskerdust/Angelhusk tumblr exclusive fic based on Ellie Goulding's "Close to Me" feat. Diplo and Swae Lee.

Part of the Light up the Night storyline

CW: Lots of cussing, mentions of sex and bullying Moxxie

---------------

SLAM!

Charlie jumped when she heard a door upstairs slam, then a hard pounding on wood before a frustrated yell had her on her feet.

She nearly ran into Husk as he stalked to the bar, grabbing a bottle off the shelf and uncorking it, taking several large gulps.

“Um…Everything good, Husk?” She asked.

Niffty suddenly hopped past, whining softly to herself as she leapt into the kitchen, hearing pots and pans banging.

Charlie looked at Husk, who had started on a second bottle and quickly followed the cyclops girl.

“Hey, Niffty?” Charlie asked.

Niffty was quickly measuring out flour and muttering to herself as she grabbed some eggs.

“Sad brownies?” Charlie asked as Niffty grabbed a block of fudge, then turned a grabbed a second.

“Sad brownies.” She said and turned to tie her hair in two short pigtails and wash her hands.

“What happened?” Charlie asked when Niffty gave her a bowl and whisk.

“Oh, Miss Charlie…” Niffty sighed and started chopping nuts. “It was awful!”

*

EARLIER...

“Dance with me, Husk.” Angel teased as they walked past a club, Niffty peeking inside and grinning.

“We gotta get this stuff back to the hotel, Ang.” Husk said. “Some other time, okay?”

“Fiiiiine!” Angel huffed and reached for Husk’s hand.

Husk pulled his fingers away and crossed his arms.

Angel blinked. “The fuck?”

“Not here, Angel.” Husk said and looked at an old poster of Angel in drag.

Angel’s eyes followed his and he scoffed.

“Are ya serious?” He asked and stalked ahead, Niffty looking from Husk to Angel before hopping to the former’s side.

“Husky, what’s going on?” She asked.

“Nothin’, Niff.” He grumbled.

The walk back was tense and silent as they all made it back into the hotel.

Angel dropped his things on the counter and went up to his room, Husk cursing and following after his boyfriend once the groceries had been put away.

Niffty cocked her head and leapt up the stairs, hearing muffled shouting.

“…fuckin’ scared to be seen with me?”

“…know damn well I don’t give a shit!”

“Be honest Husk!” Angel yelled as Niffty placed her ear near the door. “Ya think I’m disgusting or somethin’? Think I’m too much of a slu—”

“Shut up!” Husk yelled. “I just…I don’t think…Ang…we’re…not good enough to been seen together…”

Niffty squinted her eye, Husk voice very low.

“Good en---Good enough?!” Angel yelled and there was the sound of glass breaking.

Niffty ran behind a plant as Husk ran out, a perfume bottle smashing behind his feet as he turned.

“Angel…I didn’t mean it like that…Angel!” Husk yelled as the door slammed. He pounded on the door before yelling in frustration and going down the stairs.

*

NOW...

Niffty sighed. “I think I get what Husk meant. I hear him talking with Mimzy when she’s over."

“Oh?” Charlie asked as they waited for the brownies to bake.

“It’s not Angel isn’t good enough.” She looked up at Charlie. “It’s Husk. He thinks he’s not good enough to be seen with Angel.”

“And so Angel…oooooh.” Charlie said. “What should we do?”

“Brownies and milk.”

“Right! Any alcohol will make Angel spiral!” Charlie said. “He’ll lose all his progress!”

“…No, milk just taste better with brownies….” Niffty said with a frown.

“Right, right, right…” Charlie laughed awkwardly. “Sorry.”

Niffty huffed and heard the oven ding, taking the brownies out and letting them cool as she set up a tray.

“Ya know, Miss Charlie, sometimes we just gotta do what’s best for people in their own way.”

“But Angel staying clean is best for him—”

“Angel, not the hotel.”

“I…I think I have an idea. But I might need some help.”

She grimaced as she took out her phone and shot a text.

“Okay, Niffty, we might need a few more batches of brownies…” Charlie said. “And some of the good liquor I know you stowed away for this kind of situation. Let’s move all this to the home theater. And make sure the front room is clear.”

“Why both rooms?”

*

“That’s such bull!” Loona said as she downed another shot.

“How can he imply he’s better than you?” Octavia added.

“Yeah, Angie, you’re like, the fucking best!” Cherri said and stuffed another brownie in her mouth.

“Thanks gals.” Angel said, sniffing and taking another tissue from Millie. Then another shot.

Niffty sat on one of the sofas, a weird cartoon playing on the screen no one was paying attention to. She quietly excused herself and hopped to the other side of the hotel where Husk was drinking from another bottle as Blitzo chattered away.

“Listen, they all throw fits, but just have really rough angry se—”

“Sir!” Moxxie interrupted. “The best response is proper communication. As a happily married man, I can say with confidence—”

“No one cares about your boring married life!” Blitzo said and pushed Moxxie off his stool.

“Blitzy Dear…” Stolas cooed. “Aren’t we in a committed relationship?”

“Well I mean, yes.” Blitz said with a blush. “But! Marriage makes it less…sexy.”

“I see. But being my consort is much more…enticing?” Stolas purred, leaning against his partner.

“Uh…”

“Fellas!” Mimzy chided. “This isn’t helping.”

Husk was sobbing now. “I fucked up again…”

“Oh, Husker…” Mimzy said and rubbed his shoulders. “Alastor! Can’t you help us?”

The Radio Demon looked up from his drink, cocking his head. “Oh, I’m trying, my Love.”

“Tryin—Alastor! What are you up to?” The shorter demon asked her lover.

Niffty chirped and gasped, running back to the theater.

She burst in to see the same scene she had just escaped from.

Husk blubbered.

“He’s so fuckin’ beautiful, Mimz!” He said. “Like, look at ‘im! Hic! ‘Den look at me! He’s too good fa’ me and I hate…”

Angel’s eyes were transfixed on the screen.

“Hate how people look at us. ‘Dis tall fuckin’ babe and his shlubby boyfriend!”

“You’re not shlubby—” Mimzy said.

“Yes, I am!” Husk said and hiccupped. “I’m an ugly old man and he’s just! Just!”

“Just what?” Mimzy asked, side eying Blitzo and Stolas escaping into the hall to a bedroom.

“He’s fuckin’ perfect! He’s pretty an’, an’ has a nice voice…His cute widdle snore an’ man! Can he shoot, Mimz! He’s so fuckin’ vicious when he wanna be!” Husk said, waving his bottle around. “He looks so happy when he’s mowing down fuckers! Yeah, I snap at ‘im. But he can always tell when I’m bullshitting ‘im. We get in our little back and forths an’…he does dis little pout that melt me, ya know?”

Angel chuckled.

“His laugh…” Husk continued Mimzy carefully took the bottle. He mixed his drink with a smile. “Fuckin’ infectious. An’ he always smells so fuckin’ good. He looks at me like…like I’m da best damn ting in da world, ya know?”

He smiled into his glass.

“When Angel is…well, if anyone makes it outta here…I hope it’s Angel…I want ‘im happy.” Husk said. “I love him—”

Angel tackled him on screen, and everyone was shocked to see Angel had sprinted down the halls to kiss Husk's face.

“Love ya too, Husky!” Angel yelled happily, kissing the cat demon's cheeks and lips over and over.

Husk clutched him tight in a hug. “I’m sorry, Baby.”

“I know, I know, Husky.” Angel whispered. “Let’s get ya sobered up, Baby. Then we can cuddle with Nuggs.”

“Love Nuggs.” Husk mumbled as Angel picked him up, his wings dragging behind them.

“Aw~” Millie cooed as the girls joined the rest of the group in the front.

“Well, it’s late.” Charlie said.

Vaggie placed her hand on Charlie’s shoulder. “Feel free to stay the night.”

They suddenly heard pounding from Blitzo and Stolas’s room.

“Ew.” Loona and Octavia said.

“I just fixed that damn wall!” Vaggie huffed and shook her head.

Niffty offered her the last brownie, the taller demon smiling at her as they dispersed.

Angel rubbed the base of Husk’s ears as he purred into his chest fluff.

“Ya wrong, Baby.” Angel said.

Husk moaned sleepily.

“We good.” Angel said, pulling the other into a kiss. “Together.”

“But…”

“Shut up.” Angel chuckled. “Just stay close to me. And love me like ya do, okay?”

“Love ya, Angel...” Husk agreed.

“Love ya too, Husky~”

Why I Believe Angel and Husker Will (or Should) Be Endgame

As a shipper and a writer, I pride myself on finding the meat in shipping material, and despite how little official content for it is available, Hazbin Hotel’s juiciest pairing (by my observation, and not counting Charlie x Vaggie cuz that’s already canon) is Huskerdust or Angelhusk, the main mlm pairing in Hazbin Hotel between Angel Dust and Husker. While I’m a big fan of any mlm pairing no matter how small the serving size, this one is an absolute feast, and I want to explain why I think that is, because Angel flirts with multiple men in the first episode, namely Sir Pentious, Alastor, and Husker. So he just comes across as a relentless flirt, but I believe his destiny truly lies with the grumpy sourpuss bartender.

Given what we’ve learned about Angel Dust from the Addict music video and the prequel comic, it’s becoming clear that Angel doesn’t exactly love his situation. He pretends it’s fun and glamourous for his image, but it’s all an act. In the very last pannel for the comic, we can even see a box of dildos in his room with the words “for fun” crossed out, and the box being relabled as “work stuff”. I believe that Angel’s arc and character growth will be strengthened by having a love interest who cares about Angel as something beyond a sex object. Travis and Valentino clearly only see Angel as a piece of meat. Even Tom Trench one of the… less horrible denizens of Hell we’ve met, only recognizes Angel as a porn star, implying that he too only values Angel for his body. The creators have even verified that Angel will have a love interest in the series. So, that’s the easy part. Angel’s very clearly a gay man, and him having a love interest will help put the romance back in relationships with men for Angel. No surprises there. So why will/should it be Husker who fulfills that role as Angel’s redeeming lover?

In the simplest terms, it’s because their needs fit together perfectly. Angel needs someone to care about him romantically that also values his emotions, mind, and autonomy instead of just his body. Husk has likewise pretty much spelled out the flaw he needs to fix. He lost the ability to love years ago. Whether he just shuts out his emotions, someone broke his heart and now he’s jaded and bitter, or he freezes out his feelings so he won’t get hurt again, Husk has rejected love and his feelings. Learning to love and open up to Angel helps Husk to overcome those toxic coping mechanisms. Especially because his other vices such as drinking, are an extension of his core issue. His hang-ups with love. He drinks to forget and suppress. Overcoming his issues with his emotions will help Husk free himself of other sins in the process. Now the important issue though, does Husker even like boys? Yes, he does. Husker was confirmed by members of the crew to be pansexual, so he is capable of finding Angel attractive. Also, on a related note, Alastor is both Asexual and Aromantic, so he’s very unlikely to give Angel the core thing he needs, the tender appreciation of his romantic partner. That’s not to say Asexuals and Aromantics can’t date, it’s just less probable. And all the other males are either villains, or objectify Angel already. Which kind of leaves Husker as the best candidate for Angel’s love interest, at least currently. In fairness we know very little about Baxter, but that’s the thing. Without knowing anything about him, we can’t really weigh him against the other options.

Character design is very important, as it can provide visual cues about a character. Looking at these two, they share a lot of similarities. Starting from the top, while not visible here, there is a heart-shaped spot on the back of Angel’s head, and this heart appears as well on Husker’s forehead, palms, and wings. More importantly, I may be wrong, but I believe the only characters with hearts in their design are all connected to Angel. Only Travis and Val share this heart motif, two men Angel has had sex with, though in Valentino’s case, it’s not always willingly. They share their wearing of a bow tie, but to be fair, Charlie wears one too, as does Sir Pentious, so it’s a weak connection. Color theory also matters. Firstly, they are Yin and Yang. Angel is mostly white with a few dark accents, while Husker is mostly dark gray/black with white accents. Angel’s left eye, bow tie, and shorts/skirt are also the same color (or pretty close) as Husker’s darker fur patches on his forearsms, ankles, ear tips, and whiskers. The stripes on Angel’s top also repeat in Husker’s ears. Finally, while not repeating on Angel’s design, Husker’s fur on his ankles resembles spats, a fashion trend from the early 1900s. Although this trend was pretty dead in widespread use by the 1940s, it remained popular with gangsters and mafia, so much so that it’s almost a streotype of mafia. Angel’s family was an Italian crime family involved with mafia dealings. So while it makes little sense for a man who died in the 1970s to be wearing spats, it connects him to Angel’s ballpark of time as well as drawing connections to Angel’s past and his family.

Hazbin Hotel has Instagram accounts for the characters, and using Husker (bar_cat75) Angel Dust (angie_fluffy_bootz) and Niffty (babyfeathrdustr), we can put together further developments in their relationship off-screen. Starting with one of Husker’s posts, we see Angel leaning on the bar offering him a ticket to his “peep show”. The next post shows Husker still at the bar, but now there’s drool on the counter, and we can see the back of one of Angel’s legs and the red smoke from the Addict video trailing behind him with the line “Fuck, I passed out. Did I miss something?” Next, there’s a post from Niffty of Angel leaning on the railing smoking as he does in the post-credits sequence of the Addict video. Granted, I can’t tell how much of Addict is prequel and how much is happening in real time following the pilot, but we know at least the ending is canonically after the pilot episode. Seems like Angel wanted Husker there (we don’t know if he offered tickets to anyone else) and he seems bummed that he didn’t go, with a later message from Husker (that I can only seem to find in Tumblr posts) with Husker realizing that he missed Angel’s show and feels bad about it. As “owing” Angel a favor for missing his show, Angel leaves his beloved pet pig Fat Nuggets in Husker’s care, who proceeds to eat all of Husker’s limes and cherries. Now it is very important to point out that Fat Nuggets seems to fill the dual role of “purse dog” and emotional support animal for Angel, so leaving him in Husker’s care shows a lot of trust because this animal means a LOT to him. There’s also apparently rumors that Alastor keeps trying to eat Fat Nuggets which… I haven’t found a credible source for. But if Angel is worried about Fat Nuggets’ safety, him trusting Husker to protect his pig only further demonstrates his trust in the grumpy old booze cat. Upset about all the fruit Fat Nuggets ate (because it’s not easy to get in Hell) Husker wants Angel to pay to replace what the pig ate, but Angel argues that because Husker owed him a favor it’s not his responsibility. Angel says he’ll pay him if Husker agrees to come to his next show, and they compromise to get milkshakes instead. The creators said Husker was a Tsundere, and it shows. Someone called their outing a date, and Husker was QUICK to shout that it wasn’t a date, just settling up on a favor. This almost plays out like an episode 2, turning the Addict Video into the jumping off point for a second story in the hotel. I don’t know how many full narratives will come out of the Instagram accounts like this, but it’s really cool how they’re approaching this almost like a multi-media story, and I’m curious to see if this will continue when the show starts airing on television. One last thing of note is that in Angel’s latest post, there’s pictures of Fat Nuggets, Cherri Bomb, and Husker on his bedroom wall, much to Husker’s annoyance. In all of these Instagram posts, Angel seems to now be training ALL of his attention on flirting with Husk, to the point that unless another character sweeps Angel off his feet or causes Angel to start flirting with them instead of Husker, I think this pairing is sailing quickly and unopposed toward the canon zone.

I hope I’ve provided sufficient proof to back up my wild accusations, but I sincerely believe all of the building blocks have already been assembled to create a compelling romance between these characters. The flaws they need to overcome interlock with each other perfectly, their designs draw connections between them, and their Instagram accounts weave together a narrative for a soft Episode 1.5. I believe all of this together points that these two are meant to become a romantic couple, and if they aren’t, then maybe the showrunners should consider it.

Why Husker will be the driving force to save Angel Dust; Instagram deep-dive story! Angelhusk explained.

Okay full disclosure Hazbin Hotel is an adult cartoon has dark touchy subject matter so please tread carefully. This goes into shipper territory and I don’t want to get attack in my inbox about this or attacking each other too much shipping wars plus I’m a multi-shipper… But for the sake of this post it’s going to be all fuel Angelhusk (or Huskerdust), yes okay great thank you. This is a continuation of my previous post which was just a prequel to this one. I ended the post saying Husker will be the one to reach out to Angel and helping him. 

First I’ll be breaking down Husker’s first appearance and how his character is. When Alastor first summons him, he’s very pissed off when he’s pulled from the poker game. And he’s very quick show his anger, without fear despite Alastor being “one of the most powerful demons in Hell”, and does not care. Though this is a very short interaction we know that Husker does not put up with BS, he’s a drinker, and a poker player. How is this important to Angel Dust? Well Angel Dust, often hypes himself up but also tears himself down in the process, emphasizing that during the limo ride after being scolded by Vaggie that “his body is flawless, everybody wants a piece”… and thinks that’s all anybody wants from him. This is Angel’s way of protecting himself; he flirts with them first before they can hurt him, it’s just hidden with his confidence.

In reality he thinks everyone looks down on him, which is why he doesn’t accept help or confine in Charlie (like when he flipped her off )he isn’t taking a pity party. Angel hides his pain with vibrato and at the same time is too prideful to ask for help… he won’t admit when he’s in trouble. I explained this a little more in detail in my previous post why he thinks Charlie and Vaggie look down on him. But with Husker he in the same boat; using his addictions (gambling & drinking) to cope with his problems. Angel will be more incline to gravitate towards Husker and telling him his problems. I say this because it’s the same reason why Angel confines in Cherri, and is close with her. And unlike Charlie who can be naive at time ( don’t get me wrong I still love her), Husker will know when he’s over stepping his boundaries, and when to helping him since he’s going through something similar.

(Charlie wanting to help Angel but doesn’t know how…)

So all of you maybe wondering, how is Husker gonna help Angel dust then if he hides his problems like that. Vivziepop made Husker a poker-player for a reason, he knows how to tell if someone’s bluffing. And it’s already been established that Angel has a terrible poker face… so Angel can’t lie to Husker. This is why he was angry at Angel’s flirting when they first meet because he already sees through his facade, (plus he’s shy about it). He knows that he doesn’t really meant and he’s hiding something. His sense and observation skills are very necessary cause he can spot when Angel’s actually in trouble.

links to official instagrams below to follow the narrative: 

Angel’s instagram/Husker’s instagram/Nifty’s instagram/Sir Pentious’ instagram

This post starts the saga where Angel is waiting to be picked up at the studio. Saying “Waiting at the studio to…Be picked up for some fucking…Food.”, Val is quick comment on this saying “Forgot to pick you,lol.” and takes the chance to make him like an after thought and after Angel asks to be picked up again Val answer back “yeah but we are filming, I already ate.” just to rub it in. But that’s where Huskers intervenes and get Angel something to eat ,  and there’s a key detail here that it’s only Husker that comes to his aid. Now most of the main cast has an Instagram so you’d think they’d help him but they don’t… They all probably think he’s just being cute and sassy totally unaware of the Angel’s situation with Valentino, but we the audience know… (I’ll bring this point back later)

This one post is enough for Husker to be able see that Angel was really in trouble, which is why he goes out of his way to get him something to eat. And I would also like to point out after this post Husker starts following Angel’s instagram liking all his instagram posts. There’s more to this… keep in mind he starts following Angel after his posts about being tired and hungry. He’s not following him just because he has a “little crush” on Angel… he’s doing this because he wants to make sure Angel’s doing okay. He cares about Angel Dust well being and follows him to make sure doesn’t go hungry again. But during this time Angel isn’t aware of this… that Husker doing this out of worrying for Angel. I say this because right after Angel gets Husker tickets to his strip show, as “thank you” for the food. Showing that he trusts Husker but not entirely…

At this point Angel I don’t believe that he sees Husker’s actions as a gustier of genuine kindness towards him. No, he sees Husker as someone who just wants his body and this is just his way of getting towards that goal. Offering his services (or being flirty) is Angel way of not getting attach to someone (like I’ve said before): think of it as “ripping the band-aid quick off before it hurts more…”  it’s so he doesn’t get hurt again like with Valentino. I believe Val also managed manipulated Angel by doing nice things for him at first, like saying nice words or buying him nice gifts as means to just use him for his body (this is a real thing pimps do). And Angel thinks Husk is no different from the other guys who used him, that what everybody wants from him… he might as well give him what he wants. 

Night of the show rolls around and Husker misses it, kitty got too drunk… which we know takes place during the music video of Addict. In which we get another post about backs my statement the cast doesn’t know about Angel’s abuse. Nifty’s posts a pic, of Angel Dust looking sad after his show… saying “Saw Angel earlier, i hope he doesn’t leave the butts there 😅” Nifty wouldn’t have posted this if she knew what was going on. But Husker knows, that Angel’s depressed and feels bad about missing the show commenting “Oh fuck is that what I missed. Aw shit.” Feeling very guilty about missing Angels, usually Husk tends to hide his feelings but in this moment is very honest. Meaning he really did want to go to the show, not only that but realizes that Angel is actually upset. And he didn’t have to post this comment on Angel’s instagram but he had to he wanted to show that he was remorseful for not coming showing he is attracted to Angel Dust. 

This picks up to with a post with Husker saying “Ugh… Since I missed the show, @angie_fluffy_bootz is sayin I owe him one and is making me watch his fuckin pig… I ain’t a fuckin babysitter!” in which babysits Fat Nuggets, which means he went out of his way to say “ what can I do to make it up to you”, and the conversation after it is a major turning point in the relationship for them. In the comment section Husker complains that Fat Nuggets ate all the food at the bar and says he wants to be payed back. Angel’s offer to pay him pay with a “private show”, in the only way thing he thinks Husker wants (I mean that all anybody ever wants from him). He does this with his usually flirty response, but it’s very different (this is a cut version of the convo.):

Angel: “tell ya what I’ll pay ya back with another private show”

Husker: “…I’m not doing that.

Angel: that or nothing babe. I think it’s a good deal.

Husker:“Jesus fucking Christ…” 

Angel: Ugh. Fine I’ll quit it. Only if you join me for shakes.

Husker: Yeah okay I think I can do that. 

This is major turning point in their relationship; this conversation is very important. Like I said before this is just his way of ripping the band-aid but there’s a reason why he’s really pushing it this time. It’s because Angel knows that he’s starting to catching feelings for Husker. And he’s not sure if Husker wants his body or if really means it. And the matter of the situation is Husker’s feeling the same way. When Husker says “Jesus fucking Christ…” it’s his way of saying “For the last time I don’t want your body, I’m not playing this game”… Here’s the thing Husker believes he’s proven enough that he doesn’t see Angel as a sex object, he’s more tried of the facade than he is annoyed. He doesn’t want Angel Dust to be a “fuck buddy” to him…

And this is a major turning point in their relationship, Angel finally understands that Husker just wants to be there for him. This is why he offers to go out with shakes with him, and of course Husker denies it and says “it’s not a date…”, but we know Husker is happy, because he’s willing accept this as being payed back for the food fat nuggets are, to him this was enough. Needless to say to say it was very cute and I loved it. Not only that but Husker becomes more active on Instagram and low-key tries to flirt back to Angel in his own grumpy cat way. 

Try and tell me they aren’t flirting with each other!

A week after their date Angel Dust does a instagram post showing off his new outfit he got and Husker is quick to ask “why so many zippers”, he’s still too nervous to flirt directly Angel Dust responses with “More to pull down, respond…” Huskers clueless and responses with a “eh” still likes it anyway (the feelings are mutual now). And within the same week Husker posts his own selfie“ Wanted to wear a tie for once. 🥃”, posting one because of Angel. And this isn’t for nothing the pics clearly mirror each other (no pun intended). Just-wanted-to-wear-a-tie-for-once-my-foot ..he clearly did this to impress Angel with him asking “If he needs help with that tie…”, with Husker still being oblivious with the sexual reference but kitty’s still trying. 

This to me highlights why Angel is good for Husker (and vice-versa)… During his first appearance he comments “I lost the ability to love years ago…” and drinks down his booze. Which alludes to why he drinks because he feels lonely. Angel makes him active thus eliminating his reason to drink, as we can see through Husk trying things he hasn’t done before like wearing nice clothes. Now he didn’t have to but Husker pushed himself to be better. As for Angel it gives him a genuine romantic relationship that is centered by an emotional connection and not physically. Husker prioritizes Angels feelings and well-being first.

And for those of you that are confused with Huskers grumpy tendencies. In an interview Viviziepop has said about him is that he is a tsundere. Now a tsundere, it is a character the initially appearing as cold and hostile only to hide their true feelings. This is a troupe used  many times in animes (but if you are not familiar with the term or need an example of one Helga from Hey Arnold is a prime example of one).  His actions disregard his attitude towards Angel… Most of his grumpy responses to Angel are to hide his feelings for him and never used to cut down or degrade Angel Dust (like Val does). I will even argue that Husker is the total opposite of Valentino; Val uses flashiness and with sweet words to hide his heinous and vile intentions. While Husker seems hotheaded and temperamental initially his actions show he’s actually a very kind and caring individual and Angel defiantly sees that…

HUSKER MADE THE WALL!

Angel is special to Husker and he feels the same way… Now and is upper there with Fat Nuggets and Cherri Bomb. And of course Husker is embarrassed, realizing his pics there too saying “what the fuck!” but we know he’s happy. At this post we can assume that Husker is just as important to him as Cherri & Fat Nuggets is to him… and vice-versa. Which is why I believe that Husker will be the one Angel reaches out to first for help within the Hazbin Hotel. And I know some of you may not be convinced, that it’s just platonic or think that Husker just sees him as a friend, but as we know Husker is not a man of words… but a man of action! 

There is a key detail in this story that I’ve been keeping under-warps up until now, (and the reason why it took me so long to because once I found it piece of info; I had to change my original plans for this post). 

Remember how I said that the rest of the cast doesn’t know what’s going on with Val… and that Husker’s observation skills were going to be integral in helping save Angel. Well around the same time as the PJ pic… on Sir Pentious’ instagram he posts a pic of himself trying to make his minions look like Valentino and Vox: I wasn’t even trying to find this but low and behold guess who pops up in the comment section…

Now what does this post say to you. (Husker also liked the post too)

Now repeat after me…“You don’t hear shit about people unless you go looking for it.” … HUSKER KNOWS!  My theory is that he’s been suspecting that there was something up with Val, ever since the pick-up post, so he’s been keep tabs on instagram Angel to make sure he was safe. And as time went on Angel became more precious to him and became more worried about him. And Husker not wanting to overstep his bounds by asking Angel directly, (because it’s none of his business but still super worried) so he goes around digging info on Valentino. SO then he probably knows that he abuses his workers.  

(Or Angel told him whats happening… I’m leaning towards that Husker did his own digging because narratively it would be too soon and we wouldn’t have a story to tell and would have told Charlie and the rest of the crew too already… Either way..)

Val sent him this, scumbag! And it only takes Husker seconds to defend him and makes sure Angel knows he’s not fat. (most recent post)

Husker has knows, he’s actively been looking into Valentino and the shit he’s done, because he wants to protect Angel Dust! And it’s evident now, he has been defending him on Instagram as well, now being in the know, Husker defending his boy! He is not afraid of Valentino and is not putting up with his BS for putting down Angel anymore… our boy Husker is watching you rat-man.

He maybe the only one who knows that Valentino is abusing Angel (or catching on to it). Which will lead Angel coming clean about how Valentino raped him… And at this point Angel trusts Husker so much that he maybe willing to listen to him when he says “Hey you need to tell someone” or “you need help” and Husker already knows Angel well enough to know how to help him without having Angel push him away. 

AND THAT is why I believe he will be the major driving force in saving Angel from the RAT-MAN (Val)… And we know Husker isn’t afraid of overlords; he’s gonna protect his boy. He is proven time and time again that he loves and cares for Angel Dust so much… and oh I’m gushing now.

AND LOOK HOW CUTE THEY ARE! I just want them to be happy, I want the best for our bois!

Thank you and I hope you all enjoyed the post (and please no shipping war in the comment section I don’t condone it whether you support it or not! Not fighting in the fandom)

The Symbolism of Hearts in Hazbin Hotel

In the bizarre drug trip hallucination that is Hazbin Hotel, I find it interesting that the repeating theme of hearts only revolves around a single character: Angel Dust. Angel has two hearts on his body, and three men connected to Angel have hearts in their designs too. And while thinking on it, I realized that they tell us something about Angel and the show. So, what do the hearts represent? Well, as boring and obvious as it sounds, they represent love. Affection. Or even their literal heart. Where these hearts are located might tell us something about the character. 

Starting with the heart on Angel’s fur boobs, when Angel is wearing clothes, this heart is hidden. So for anyone to see this heart means that Angel must expose himself. He must shed his clothing and allow himself to be vulnerable. I believe that the heart on Angel’s chest symbolizes how he gives so much of himself to others, and his job as a stripper/porn star whose job it is to expose this mark on his chest means that he exposes this intimate place to many who don’t deserve to see it. But perhaps more interesting is the trail leading from his heart down to his crotch area. Then I looked at the stripes on his arms, and began to wonder if this was meant to look like he’s tied up or bound, caught in a rope or spider web? As such, his heart (big as it is) is a prisoner of his loins. He can’t, won’t, or avoids letting himself legitimately feel love because his heart is the prisoner of his crotch. He’s a porn star. His body belongs to the public. As such, he feels that he can’t sell public property to a private collector.

The heart on the back of Angel’s head has a few possible interpretations. Maybe it symbolizes how he’s turned his back on his feelings and emotions. It could be that it points out that even though he can’t see it, there’s love and affection in his life. Something interesting that I notice is that the heart on Angel’s chest is much more visible, much bigger, and hollow, while the heart on the back of his head is small, hidden, but full. The fact that we see the back of Angel’s head so little could mean that the heart on his chest is the fake affection he shows the world, while the hidden heart is the real feelings he hides and doesn’t show people. It being much smaller speaks that Angel isn’t nearly as romantic/sexual as the hollow heart on his chest implies, and his true heart is much smaller and much less available to the masses.

Cherri Bomb’s tattoo is very small and almost shunted to the side. Knowing that their relationship is very close and extremely platonic, I think what her little tattoo represents is that her affection isn’t romantic. She can’t offer it. That’s why it’s so small. While she has love to give, she can’t offer much because she’s not a romantic option. The placement seems to suggest that this is where Angel belongs. At her side. Arm in arm. As friends. She’s the shoulder he can lean on. The shoulder he can cry on.

Valentino has many hearts on his fur collar, clasps, and sunglasses, but all of these things are articles of clothing. They’re fake. He can put them on and take them off. This speaks not only of his relationship with Angel, but his relationship with Vox as well. He claims to love Vox, but when he gets the wrong drink, he smashes his boyfriend’s screen face. With Valentino, all love and affection is fake. Surface level. Something he puts on and takes off as easily as clothing. He doesn’t look at anyone with loving eyes. It’s an act. We see him without hearts on him quite often on Instagram, proving that his love isn’t reliable. He can take it off and put it away whenever he wants to, much as how abusive boyfriends will put on an act of love and affection to keep their abuse victim sympathetic and compliant.

Travis’ only heart on his entire design is located inside of his eye. The heart in his eye is likely a symbol of coveting and objectification. He values things for physical beauty or superficial worth. Heart eyes in cartoons are often used to represent a crush or an attraction to something or someone new. I think this placement is meant to tell us that Travis’ affections and love are based solely on appearance. But only one eye is a heart. This suggests that Travis is partially blinded by lust. Part of him knows he shouldn’t be getting involved with Angel. Part of him isn’t blind to this. But that heart eye is blinded. It only sees lust. As far as Angel is observed, that heart eye sees Angel as an object. A beautiful trinket he covets. That’s usually why a cartoon character has heart eyes. It’s not usually used for characters in a relationship with each other. It’s saved for crushes. For desires. For something the character wants to possess. And that’s all Angel is to him. A pretty face for him to chase. If he actually had Angel, he’d get tired of him, and start chasing someone else.

Most of the hearts on Husk are tiny. Honestly, I didn’t even notice the ones on his face the first time I watched the pilot. Based on my reading of the heart on the back of Angel’s head, I think the small hearts in easy-to-see places are meant to be how he presents his love being (tiny and hard to see) but then he has the gigantic hearts on his palms. Now, palms are somewhat easy to hide. We can’t see them all the time. But when they show, it’s difficult not to notice them, especially because their color is heavily contrasted by his fur, making them highly visible. So I think the hearts on his palms represents the love he tries to hide, but shows the love he has to offer if he’s willing to show it to another person. The placement may also be a play on the saying “wearing your heart on your sleeve”, painting Husk as someone whose feelings are very apparent, but he tries to hide them. He’s not good at pretending he doesn’t feel a certain way and is very expressive and vocal about how he feels. The hearts on his palms could also visually represent holding his heart in his hands as if offering it to others. The palm heart is also the same color as his eyes, symbolically suggesting that the hearts on his hands speak to the true desires of his soul, as eyes are the window to the soul. Thus, they point the way to his true heart’s desire, which is to offer his heart to another, even if he tries to hide it.

I just realized that this dynamic:

And don’t worry Angel got his kiss

I almost forgot his second set of arms kjfsngkjs

Happy New Year!

HuskerDust Headcanons

Husk keeps Angel's favorite drink and his 'favorite drink' in stock. His favorite is a strawberry and creme mixed drink. The one he says is his favorite is some low calorie vodka, because Val is always making Angel count his calories.

Angel is absolutely amazed by Huskers magic tricks. Even when they're relatively simple. Especially when he's drunk or high and needs a distraction.

Husk said I love you first. Even if it was in hushed Russian after Angel fell asleep at the bar.

They both are very convinced the other won't like them.

Angel takes Husk rejecting his offers for sex as him not wanting him, because he thinks that's all anyone would want with him.

Husk thinks Angel is coming onto him as part of his job. Husk doesn't want to use him if this is just his job. Why would a famous porn star want a grumpy old cat like him?

Angel finally breaks down and asks why he can't pull the one guy he actually likes.

Epilogue to the date

Yes I’m still referring to their shake outing as a date even though Husk swears it wasn’t, because for one he’s a confirmed tsundere so why would he admit to anything love related? Husk already pretends not to be interested in Angel’s existence—but keeps doing things for him. Like buys him food, watch his pig, go out together. 

And we all know Angel Dust 100% seen it as a date because he’s just so damn smitten with the kitten, as a matter of fact, if anything it’ll just make the flirting more intense instead of having the opposite effect.

Needless to say, Husk didn’t exactly help matters by accepting Angel’s invitation if he claims otherwise.

Husk states that the milkshake was just reimbursement for Fat Nuggets eating all of his Inventory, but if that was the case I’m sure Angel could have just brought him a milkshake…Instead they went on a family outing, together, sitting across from each other.

During the date itself, they were having their “first date” jitters as both seemed to have brought along their little comfort items along with them, the pig and the booze~🐖🍺

Angel’s happy Husk could join him, but asks that next time kitty keeps the booze off the table because Husk ends up drinking despite the fact that they were on an outing where they went to buy… drinks. Smh Husky.

But overall both of them appeared to have enjoyed their time together so I’m sure there will be a …“next time”

p.s-

Our tsundere kitty really called him an idiot, that’s the closest we’ll get to him saying ‘baka’ ( ꈍᴗꈍ)
