I don't like OC bio templates, so I tackled this with my best work attitude: sarcasm and chaos.
Pierce is from my novel, Gothic Tales from Melancholia.
Tiny Erik is here to say cheers to you!
His hat looks CURSED off-camera, so I gave him some juice (it's Lego, and I can't say how much I love that piece). He still looks a little frightened and brain-off, as Aiden says, but I think he's buzzing inside about so many good stories about him!
Konrad and I have just proofread chapter 29 of the webcomic. I'm so incredibly happy that I've covered the next 10 months with enough comic chapters.
My visit at the doctor today was pretty sobering. Tomorrow I'm going to see another doctor for other problems.
Due to my state of health, it took me about 4 weeks to draw chapter 29. I'm currently putting off the next 3 bonus chapters. No energy for storyboarding.
But I am soooo happy. Chapters 16, 17 and 18 are already prepared in Tapas. I can't wait to read what you have to say. 😍✨✨✨
Not even the whole song, only that.
Thanks to @grisha-brain for the tag! I hope you don't mind me answering with my 'ramble' blog. And thank you for stalking my art blog, haha!

If you see this you are OBLIGATED to reblog w/ the song currently stuck in your head :)
WAIT, this deserves a drawing reblog:
Pierce, mon cher, that's nice, but your philosophy of 'You have problems? That's all right, me too!' is the reason you have so many relationship problems. And you're lucky Aurik is an angel who puts up with your shenanigans. (Your hair looks magnificent in any style, Aurik.)
Vlad, this is better than anything I could have imagined when I first started posting doodles of my disaster kitten Pierce, thank you 😹
Well, Aurik, you did say he could do your hair.

Here are some stupid pics of my gremlin cat :3
(Maybe they can be a bit of help) <3
I HAVE BEEN BLESSED BY THE GREMLIN cat!
Every one of these photos is precious, but there's a special place in my heart for blurry cat pictures. Here's my stuffy gremlin as a tiny token of gratitude🥹 Thank you so much, Ghost!
(I was shooting him with a Lego gun. As an Experiment.)

I just started a new journal for the first time in years. Of course, I'm addressing my entries to Count Dracula.
I quote: 'let this Undead creature address her woes to a dead Undead who wouldn't care less if she was putrefying from coffin-rot (bed-rot).'
I had to find some way to amuse myself while trying to be my own therapist.
Doomed by the narrative.
They doomed themselves and each other. They treated each other like monsters and believed themselves to be monsters.
The "monster or human" narrative is one of the central conflicts of the story. Were we made wrong, or did we lose our souls somewhere along the way? What happens when you believe you are a monster?
Before I worry anyone unduly, my well-being is, well, quite well. A reason I hesitate to post my writing is that I'm worried I'll make people concerned - yes, a lot of it is based on experience, but it's gothic fiction and I paint it darker than it is. Also, I have a gremlin in my brain that screams, "MAKE IT WEIRDER!" A weird imagination is the side effect of growing up feeding on novels, don't read too much into it.
Welp, I suppose we'll soon know just how weird it is, if I don't chicken out and actaully release the creepy lil creature into the internet.
I'm tired, so have some Pierce being unintentionally funny.
All of these happened during intense scenes or fight sequences. I didn't realise as I was writing that they're pure slapstick. All the Gothic elements of toxic people, betrayal, loneliness and misery are present in the story, but as Van Helsing puts it, King Laugh refuses to be shut out. Sorry, Pierce, you have a kooky author.
*Pulls my vampire out of the blender* He's up for it!
