Motel bound

A Gravity Falls x Bobs Burgers crossover au idea.

The Belchers are on a road trip and currently driving through Oregon. The trip has been okay so far, Tina hasn't puked more than once and to Louise's delight they've stopped at some of the locations she's recommended.

Gene enjoys changing the songs on the radio and Linda mostly sleeps. Bob however can't relax. He's too worried that something is going to go wrong.

Linda tells him to not think about it, that everything has been going smoothly and theres nothing to worry about. However as they pass the big "Welcome to Gravity Falls" sign, Bob feels uneasy. The woods surround the car and the wind whistles through the trees.

Bob thinks he can hear whispering out the open window but tries to ignore it. As he drives deeper into the town he can hear the car start to sound weird. It's making a dragging sound and he can feel the pang of anxiety in his stomach.

Before he can reach over to wake Linda the car jerks forward. As she jolts awake Bob pulls over to inspect the damage. He mumbles about how he was right, how he knew their luck wouldn't last for long and how now they were stuck in a small, creepy, town.

Linda calls a tow truck as Bob tries to not get into his head and think about how the rest of the trip would be terrible after this. Linda reassures him after her phone call and at the shop they search for motels to stay in.

Bob lands on a cheap, old, motel a mile down the road from them. Linda is hesitant to agree, as the place gives her the creeps. Bob mentally agrees with her but argues that there’s no where else to stay.

With a heavy sigh and a long moment of silence, Linda gives in and calls a car. As they drive to the motel Linda can feel a sense of unease settle in her.

The kids were too exhausted to notice, Louise was curled up next to Bob, Gene laid with his head on his mothers shoulder and Tina laid like a ragdoll in the middle, dead asleep.

And as the driver pulled in Linda considered telling Bob to re-consider. To maybe search for a different place. However she knows how exhausted her family is and how much Bob needs rest.

She swallows hard as she wakes the kids and climbs out of the car. Normally she would go inside to check in while Bob grabs their stuff.

Now however, she waits, one arm wrapped around Louise‘s small body to keep her warm, feeling the light weight of the little girl leaning into her and the other arm around Gene, playing with his hair and keeping him close to her.

Tina leans back into her mother with her hands in her pockets as Linda blocks her from the wind. As Bob finishes unloading their luggage Linda herds the kids to the doors.

She lets Bob in first and follows him in, slipping her hand into Louise’s. The motel looks even older on the inside and Linda starts to wish she had asked Bob to change his mind on the place.

Hauling the luggage up the stairs was the nail in the coffin for Bob. Driving had tired him out enough, but worrying about the car and their trip and then having to carry their luggage to their room made him feel dead.

The kids didn’t bother changing, they tore off their coats and climbed into bed, piling over each other and it wasn’t long before Bob and Linda could hear their soft snores and see Tina’s twitching under the blankets.

Linda would’ve loved nothing more than to crawl into bed at that moment but sleeping in her clothes made her cringe. So as she changed in the bathroom Bob flipped through the channels on the tv, ultimately landing on an old black and white movie.

Linda joined him in bed when she was finished, noticing he had quickly and lazily threw on his own pajamas. His shirt was inside out and part of it was stuck in the waist band of his sweats.

Bob knew but didn’t care. And while still very creeped out by the town and the motel he knew rationally that there was nothing scary about it.

He needed to let it go, and he figured sleeping would help him shake off the feeling.

However in Gravity Falls, the things that go bump in the night aren’t just the house settling, or your pets running around after bed time, or your roommate up making a late dinner.

The things that go bump in the night are real.

They aren’t even just passed on beings who like to fool with the living, or are angry you‘re in their space.

They‘re so much worse.

And Bob soon wished he listened to his gut before passing the big wooden sign that read:

Gravity Falls, Oregon.

THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN

Good news sports fans! Getting back into Undertale and Deltarune, expecting more art!

So apparently I have OCD. I have known my ADHD for a while, but confirming OCD wasn’t what I was expecting on this years bucket list.

Gonna be me

what the computer screen sees as i write the most gut-wrenching scenes of my novel

Hello, sorry if you've answered this question before, but what advice would you give to a absolute beginner learning to draw fantasy character illustration art? (Also do you draw while high? Since that is the only way I know how I can experience new methods of thought openly without judgement.)

Hey! Sorry, i havent checked asks in a while!

There's 2 things id recommend an absolute beginner do:

Learn fundamentals. Check out /ic/'s How to Draw resource. They've put together a pretty comprehensive guide including a number of books and tutorials from all around the web. I'd recommend the free Proko and Andrew Loomis stuff they have. Preferably, start learning with pencil on paper.

Identify 5-10 of your favourite professional artists, and build a large reference library with their art. Study the hell out of it. Identify which qualities of their art you're keen on, and try to imitate them. This will help you figure out your own style and aesthetic sensibilities.

PS: I dont smoke, but i do have artist friends who like drawing under the influence. You do whatever you feel makes you perform the best!

OK SO!

I've had this idea for a paper-headed character for YEARS but could never figure out how he should look.

But now I know!

ANd I can finally make it real! AHHH IM SO EXICTED!

U HAVE NO IDEA!

Fun fact! His original name was "The Giver" but that was for a completely different story idea (He was the main char) It was the first name I gave him, though

Ican'tshow

So I usually make content using pre-existing media, but I've always wanted to do something original. Wholly my own. So here's that.

World basis:

Early in the 1980’s people were being born with completely different structural heads than normal. Late into it was it found to be a sudden neurological connection to the 4th dimension, causing a literal and physical mental imbalance.

Those affected believed it should be removed, so they were meant to be Nullified, but instead this stuck as the term for those born with it.

Once the panic had calmed down, society began to pick itself back up by the late 1990’s.

The mass of the older generation, who have not gotten this neurological change, have indifference or even hatred to those Nullified.

Nullified:

Those who had this neurological connection resulted in their head, or body, having completely different properties to that of someone without it.

Because the connection is based in time, every person with it doesn’t have the same look or effect. No two people will ever have exactly tge same results.

Despite how they look, Nullfied can still function like a normal human, not withstanding any mental or physical disabilities formed from birth (which were wrongly accused to be more common in Nullfied as a way to see them lesser. There is no factual evidence that being Null is naturally flawed).

Some who become Null may even have the ability to do things once seen as impossible, akin to comic book superhero’s.

Since the variety would make it impossible to narrow down powers that are or aren’t harmful, Null who can do this are under government watchlists (unbeknownst to the Nullfied).

Otherwise, court of law judges Null’s powers in their own sanctum, so mental or physical assault with these abilities are classified as such.

======================== So what does this mean?

Think My Hero quirks but it's casual instead of Hero Vs Villian shit.

Shayy

+ Meta-Morphing shape for a head

+ Emotions are very much on his sleeve

+ jack of all arts, master of none

+ Hard time with friends

+ ADHD like mad

Louisiana

+ Whole eye for a head

+ Doesn’t really have an idea for what she wanna do for a life

+ Knows most of the other nulls in the small town, but most prominently…

Crane

+ An asshole

+ Whole body minus the center is skeleton

+ Feels like his life is already done

+ Gas Station worker

+ Smokes a lot; doesn’t feel it cause it can’t reach his lungs

Also a lot more I'm concocting.

This thing will either be a comic, written book, or, what i'd most prefer...

A visual novel! Thanks for reading if you have :) I'm not sure if this will go anywhere but I still wanna put it out there for me myself and I
