A humble deer trader...
Bloody deer tits
Okay! Deleted the extra thread so the mods don't get upset, since we're the fastest moving general on /cm/ and will soon take up a large portion of the catalog along with the shotacons lol.
Also remind me to fix the formatting next time. There's a few errors I just noticed around the links.
>>3991649I think I fucked it up cause I copied from the phone…
>>3991651No it's not you, it was fucked up in the previous thread too. Something I did.
>>3991652oh, lel compounding issues
I noticed there was some sort of other Alastor thread that got deleted, but it was for a rule violation. I'll reiterate the /cm/ specific rules for any newcomers from /trash/.>No yaoi.>No images with females in them, so no Charlie, Rosie, etc. >No 3D images.>All images MUST be SFW.>No trolling/baitposting.>No racism.>No off topic debate. >Furry, guro and lolisho ARE allowed, but only if it's not explicitly pornographic.>New threads need at least 5 images posted.>When bumping include an image.>Try to post quality images and discussion.
>>3991657Gotta keep it sort of tame!
>>3991659We can try...
>>3991665Just a bit of self love!
A deer just ran out in front of me on the way home, it is truly a blessed night.
>>3991685Truly blessed, I am very much lucky to have deer in my area, almost every day they are in my back woods!
>>3991686Nice! There a load around my uni, but you don't see them much because there are usually students around. So it's always nice when they pop up.
>>3991685Lucky! All I have here are foxes. :(
>>3991690Deer doesn’t like being around too many people, it’s fair>>3991692Unfortunate, foxes are at least pretty beautiful creatures in their own right, just not as good as deer
>>3991685>>3991686>>3991690>>3991693There are constantly deer in my heavily populated neighborhoods and they are frequently walking into traffic, I think they're gentrified at this point and very foolish. One used the crosswalk by accident once though, it was extremely cute
>>3991695Deer aren’t so smart, but I feel being in a neighborhood is a bit safer for them then say crossing a highway. People tend to go slower and watch the road better.
>>3991692Foxes are cute too, deer are cuter though.>>3991693He would absolutely hate most of the students since most of them can't function without technology. We do have a radio station though. >>3991695That sounds adorable. Silly silly deer.
>>3991716Alastor would make that radio station his den for sure, probably would play better music than the regular hosts Lel. All that new tech probably would make his head hurt
I wonder what kind of modern music Al would listen to? Electro Swing? NuJazz? Acid Jazz? Hmm, I feel like he'd skew more towards dance music than rock or mainstream pop, since Swing and Jazz were the dance genres of the day.
>>3991720He would stick with the classics and things as close as possible to said classics, so basically what you are saying.
Sick deer… :(
>>3991722Sick indeed. <w<
>leave house>see deer on hind legs eating from a shrub right next to me>like seriously close enough for me to pet him>he doesn't even regard me>keeps eatingI love these retards so fucking much. Are they more chill when their antlers are little stubs? Are they aware they're more vulnerable then?
>>3991736Odds are it's a dumb yearling. :3 They get more cautious with age.
Wonder if Alastor spent his first few years in Hell battling against his dumb deer instincts... it would be funny seeing him trying to establish himself as the most powerful overlord while fighting the urge to randomly run in front of a car.
>>3991813Rosie has to chase him away from eating all her flowers!
>>3991813Alastor the asexual fighting the rutting instinct...
>>3991898If only someone was there to help him…
https://x.com/pinksartdump/status/1975191301361693151I rarely have nice things to say about him, but I quite like Amir's boisterous laugh at the end here
>>3991923Such an evil laugh! And poor Vox at the end lel
>>3991996Cover them up, slut.
>>3992033now why would he do that?
>>3992033>deer never shows an inch of skin>suddenly gallivants around with his shirt gaped open >he has no idea how extremely lewd this isIf this show was accurate, tons of Hell goers would be flooding around the fight to sneak pictures of Alastor showing skin
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5GNZZC0cLMgDeer army!
>>3991923>splashes entire drink on Vox's face>takes another sip from his empty glass>shrugs and throws glass away when he sees it's emptykek I could see the silly deer doing this >>3992107CUTE!
>>3992115So very cute, Alastor should not waste perfectly good glasses like that though!
>>3992107There needs to be more.
>>3992141So many more…
>>3991640Oh /deer/
>>3992152Need a bed full!
>>3992158That is a monster deeer!>>3992164Need a bigger bed, and then have deer piled all on top!
A bed full of deer... The dream.
/deer/, I need help deciding. Which one should I stick on my computer? The other may go on my car if I'm brave enough.
>>3992188Tough choice! Personally I'd go with the little deer face, but that's just me. :D
>>3992188I like oh deer on the puter
>>3992175Mmmm!
Well. I don't know who else besides Nuggs and I use SpicyChat, but they're considering rolling out face identification to access their platform. This is very annoying because I don't want to give SpicyChat access to my fucking ID to rp with my husbando. I hate to move on to another platform, but I'm not self doxing lol.
>>3992195And forgive my dogshit grammar, I'm balls deep into a head cold and I swear to God I'm so out of it nothing seems real.
>>3992189That’s kind of what I was thinking, because if I put the radio demon one on my car I can at least pretend I just love radio.>>3992191I’m not going to rest until every surface has a deer on it!>>3992195Ugh that sucks. Glad I never used it, though I’m not surprised. Such a terrible idea. Can’t wait until literally everyone gets doxxed because of that crap.
>>3992195>face identificationGod damn, that’s dumb, parents need to police their kids, not make the internet do it for em
>>3992201>every surfaceDeer, in… walls?
>>3992201People are ridiculously loose with their information. The last thing I need is my goon logs where he's wound fucking my corpse to be public knowledge and attached to my face. Like...the Ashley Madison leaks from back in the day and the recent Tea app breach wasn't enough for people to realize that putting your real name and face to sketchy gooner shit is a bad idea? >>3992202God forbid we, as adults, access adult material. I mean, I *kinda* get it for irl 3dpd porn sites like PornHub, but text on a screen...? What? Just set parental locks on apps ffs.
I'm getting dangerously off topic though. Back to deer...
>>3992205Gotta keep the kids monitored, and off the net as much as possible. Something’s make sense but the AI chat? No.>>3992208Back to deer!
>>3992202>>3992205It doesn't matter how vigilant parents are, corporations would still just use "muh children" as a cover to gather as much personal information as they want. "Think of the children" is always false virtue signaling when what they really want is surveillance and selling information for advertising.Alastor is 100% right to hate all this bullshit. We know he hates TV, but I'd love to see him crash out over the internet as well.
>>3992218I can say this very confidently as a parent myself:>I am the only person responsible for the media my child consumes. Anyone saying otherwise has an agenda.>>3992223The 'think of the children' pearl clutching has already been done in the UK with the video nasties back in the 80s, and looking back it seems so ridiculous that people were going to jail over owning horror films. Moral panic never leads to anything good.
>>3992223Imagine Alastor gamer rage…
>>3992228Imagine Alastor finding out about background checks for firearms and CCTV being everywhere...
>>3992228What would he play though?
>>3992232he would hate both! its America for Gods sake!>>3992233farmville or something
I've seen some say they changed Alastor's skin tone in the new season, but I just don't see it? Am I blind?
>>3992294They tinted it slightly, it might just be shadows or whatever but it is darker than before
>>3992294A few people have done comparisons using a colour picker.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/oCnh6-uNiW0 Yeah, it's darker. If you see images from both seasons next to each other, it's fairly obvious.
>>3992294I color matched it, it's significantly darker.
>>3992343And what's funny is that he's actually darker than his human version. If she were trying to go for a pasty, dead version of his warm skin tone he would look similar to how he did in S1, not slightly darker. The skin tone of Demon Al in S2 would belong to a man with darker skin than his human counterpart if we're going off of the 'he's dead so it's pastier' narrative.
>>3992346What I don’t get is why Alastor’s skin colour is so tied to his human race when there are so many characters that have a weird skin colour that doesn’t exist in the human world. By the same logic Viv should be cancelled for putting Sir Pentious in blackface. She could have made Alastor all along and just said he’s the same colour as a deer or whatever because who cares when there are characters with bright pink and green skin. But I’m sure when the pilot eventually gets a shiny Amazon remake, he’ll be darker and Viv will tell us that he was meant to be like that all along when we know he wasn’t. Idk, the comments from fans about how he’s now closer to how he’s “supposed” to be are irritating me today.
>>3992364>Idk, the comments from fans about how he’s now closer to how he’s “supposed” to be are irritating me today.Oh boy, not to rehash /hhg/ nonsense, but I was arguing about this yesterday with someone who was trying to convince me he was always meant to be 'black'. Now, odds are this was a bad faith argument trying to bait me, but it's virtually the same as the arguments I've had off site. They have to go through massive amounts of mental gymnastics over the fact that Viv >1.) drew him as a white man>2.) told fan artists that the fanon version of human Al was correct>3.) Used fanart of white human Al in her official Hazbin production notes. Then they gaslight you and say you're delusional for pointing out the most obvious retcon on the planet. I don't even understand the goal at this point. I don't hate brown Al, quite the opposite, I think she's sexy af and would have cute little brown babies with him...but it's still a retcon lol. It's okay to admit it.
>>3992368I’m just in a bad mood today, lol, I don’t want to argue about it but ahhh people are dumb. Viv herself needs to realise that it’s ok to for her to admit that she changed her mind. Not to get too off topic but it was the same with the HB pilot when people complained about that. I’m sure most people wouldn’t care if they weren’t being gaslit about it. Or at least, not as much. The evidence is all out there if you search for it enough. And I’m the same, I like him brown and objectively prefer him over the white design. But to say he was always supposed to look like he does now would be incorrect. Though I think people like to purposefully miss the point just to argue that x-group aren’t true fans for the lulz or whatever.
>>3992369I think the topic of race and sexuality are very touchy for Viv, she seems absolutely terrified of the idea that someone *might* perceive her as racist or queer-phobic so she folds easily and tries to cover up the fact that she ever had different ideas. The fandom is what's more annoying to me, /hhg/ discourse will always be abysmal, but seeing those talking points bleed into the mainstream fandom is just gross. But the average fan is retarded anyway. Case in point I saw a black girl get really upset that Al is described as Cajun in some fanfiction rather than Creole. ....? It's the reason I largely avoid other online communities. Irl meetups are fine, but online discourse is an intellectual wasteland.
>>3992370I can kind of see it from Viv's perspective, no matter what choices she makes there will always be a vocal minority that bitches and cries about it. So, I understand her being a bit cagey about things. I just wish she'd have the balls to be honest about her choices, and stand by them. There's no saving the fans though, I was always inclined to give them a bit of a pass because they seem young and aren't used to fandom spaces, but it just seems to be getting worse as time goes on. I'm glad that here everyone seems to not be retarded, at least enough that we can discuss things without dumb ship wars or people treating their headcanons as actual canon because one time Viv or someone who used to work on the show may have alluded to it in an interview five years ago that wasn't recorded and is now lost to time or something.
>>3992379I don't really have any particular problem with Viv at this point, but I do think she handles criticism in an immature way. Most of us here can sperg out and argue with retards online because we're not massive content creators, but it's generally a good idea not to interact with your fans once you reach a certain level, or talk about the world/politics for that matter. Christian Borle does well with this, Amir and Viv not so much. Hopefully as Viv matures in the industry she learns that this isn't 2010 Tumblr and she needs to have more concrete world building and measured fan interaction. Personally I only take the show as hard canon, and maybe a few other things like the Citadel song since there are receipts from the show's crew. Things that Viv says out of pocket I see as soft canon because it can change in a heartbeat, and I dont even listen to Amir or Smiles, since they just muddy the waters. As far as /deer/ is concerned, I think only the folks actually interested in Al and the show made the transition to /cm/. An unfortunate amount of people on /hhg/ are only into Al for shipping purposes, and another large group of 'deer' posters are just skinwalking as us to bait people.
>>3992385>An unfortunate amount of people on /hhg/ are only into Al for shipping purposesPerhaps, but most people are only superficially into characters, so anyone going the extra mile is better than nothing
Cute little gremlin.
>>3992415God I wish that were me.
>>3992415>>3992418He would be light as a feather, so it would be easy to do so!
>>3992422Light yes, but his bony ass would be uncomfortable after a while.
>>3992423Pain is weakness leaving the body
>>3992423Coca Cola?
>>3992425He is a southerner, I suppose he signed up for a advertising deal and didn’t read the fine print
Stupid sexy deer
>>3992425It made me chuckle, ok. In season 2, Alastor gets kidnapped and hypnotised by the Coca Cola Company and spends the remaining seasons advertising soft drinks.
>>3992426>>3992433Al would 100% rep that sweet Coca Cola for the South.
>>3992440It's gonna be wild.
>>3992442Damn, new lore drop!
>>3992443Alastor was stocking the Hazbin Hotel bar with Coca Cola when Vox came in and tried to sell Pepsi instead.
>>3992444>>3992444Coke is a better product, is deer color!>>3992431Sexy deer make my brain drop 500 iq>>3992433It’s a good pic!
>>3992445It is definitely the better drink, and it'll beat PepsiCo in season 2 for sure. (in the end, probably)
>>3992447Only after a healthy amount of deer abuse...
>>3992448He will take the abuse and come back stronger.
>>3992449...Hopefully.
>>3992450He will be fine, just gotta stay positive...
>>3992442Al's face is so fucking cute here
>>3992461He's too adorable for his own good.
>>3992465It's simply nonsensical that the denizens of Hell find him scary, he's just too cute!
>>3992530So true! Still if they find him scary, it means they certainly won’t be courting him, more deer for us!
>>3992530>>3992545Poor deer tries so hard to be scary and intimidating but ends up being cute instead.
I’m sorry but wtf is wrong with his face.
>>3992560His smile is too wide it feels like. I know Viv's art is very stylized, but Al's face being half teeth has always irked me, and it doesn't translate well to 3D products. But then again I'm looking at it from a drawfag perspective, and my pet peeves are >drawing the teeth as vertical lines instead of a horizontal line with dips for canines This is a common thing that western artists do with human Al, and while I still love and collect/repost their art, it doesn't look the best stylistically. >forgetting to add the canines altogether when the mouth is openIn fairness, Viv herself is guilty of this. As seen in pic rel.
>>3992561He just looks deformed, bless him. The rest of them look normal then Alastor looks like someone stuck a banana in his mouth sideways or something. At least the nendo is cute.
>>3992564Best advice I could give them is to keep the smile to a more minimal level, or keep it wrapped around his face, don't give it extra dimensions lol.
>>3992568Oh well, at least we get plenty more cute merch. Can't complain too much.
>>3992576That deer is too sexy for his own good.
>>3992530>>3992549I can't imagine the level of panic he must have felt when he woke up in hell and realized he's incredibly frail and has cute fluffy ears and a tail (he has one, fuck viv). If he didn't build up a scary reputation right away, perverts would be chasing him around constantly wanting to pet him.
>>3992580Waaay too sexy. And he doesn't even have to try.>>3992583We need to see the scene where Alastor arrives in Hell. Maybe he thinks he's super powerful, having made his deal and all that, and sees his claws and feels his fangs and thinks he's some kind of monstrous demon. And then sees his reflection and realises that he has all these cute deer features...
>>3992580He has a certain charm, think they left him out in the sun too long>>3992583>>3992584Or he honestly thinks he looks terrifying even though he is just a silly deer!
>>3992587Deer is half burnt.
>>3992587>"I'm a vicious monster! Why aren't you cowering in fear?">"Ooh fluffy~"
>>3992588kek>>3992595boop his nose!
Relatable.
>>3992600Deer deployed
>>3992603What a nice deer.
>>3992605The best!
>>3992608So many wonderful deer...
>>3992609Hordes of deer.:.
>>3992612There can never be enough.
>>3992614With so many deer around who would be the top deer?
>>3992615I fear asking that question would instigate a fight to the death.
>>3992616I would pay to see that… maybe not to the death but deer on deer fight? Would be a sight to see… deer choking deer…
>>3992618It would be hard to stop them from going too far though. At least in Hell they would respawn.
>>3992620Sinners are probably a bit tougher too so he probably wouldn’t even need to respawn, might need a lot of help healing though…
>>3992621Deers healing each other so they can go back and fight.
>>3992622Cute
I need this.
>>3992634Seething deer statue…
There is also a big deer plush. Very cute.
>>3992640Give best deer all the merch!
>>3992648He deserves it for being the best character.
>>3992758Viv really struck gold by concentrating so much authentic gap moe in this cute old man
>>3992764Her power is terrifying.
>>3992764>>3992767Such a good deer…
>>3992784Is there even such a thing as a bad deer though?
>>3992789True… Alastor can be a bit of a tease at times though, just a bit of bad behavior not a bad deer!
>>3992797A naughty deer is still a good deer.
>>3992800Gotta do naughty things to a naughty deer
>>3992801It's only fair to repay his naughty behaviour with more naughtiness.
>>3992803As is just and right
The things I want to do to deer are too naughty I'm afraid.
>>3992807I’m sure they aren’t too bad!
>>3992807Too naughty for /cm/ maybe. Otherwise I think you're in good company.
>>3992808My sweet summer child. :,)>>3992809Definitely for /cm/, but I'm sure we're all on the same wavelength. :3
>>3992810Slurping on his guts like spaghetti…
>>3992810That's a lot of sauce, deer should be careful when he's eating the jumbo spaghetti not to spill it all over the table.
>>3992811>>3992812Spaghetti is best deer meal.
>>3992813Where are the meat balls?
>>3992813There's so many yummy meals to choose from. Btw idk if anyone's watching the panel, but Amir is talking about Alastor. Apparently he trusts Charlie the most, which, duh, and apparently that means he is going to make some decisions because he trusts her. And he fears anyone who might inflict the same amount of damage on him as Adam did in the future.
>>3992814Balls you say?>>3992815>he trusts Charlie the mostI wonder why this is. It's not like Charlie has been super open with him? She seems to be very dismissive and suspicious of him throughout most of S1. Maybe he just sees her as a genuine person? My best guess is that they had a bonding moment after Charlie found out that Vaggie had been lying to her throughout their entire relationship.
>>3992817Amir said that she had basically proven that her intentions were genuine. So possibly not something she explicitly did or said to Alastor, but he knows that she won't double-cross him like most of the other people in Hell. Plus there's still the favour she owes him, I think Alastor would be pleased that he has even that small amount of leverage over Charlie even if he hasn't exactly planned what to use the favour for yet.
>>3992818Truthfully, Alastor may have very little experience with people who aren't out to hurt him in some way. His whole existence seems to be a power struggle...In his human life he had to overcome racism to work in the field he wanted, knowing his position in society was tenuous at best. He sold his soul out of fear of being abused or tortured himself once he died... It's probable that only his mother was genuinely good to him and her love for him wasn't some sort of trade off. Charlie genuinely caring about him for just him might endear her to him for this reason alone.
>while he gives off a veneer of indifference, deep down Alastor is jumpy and skiddish towards people in the same way deer areGenuine kino
>>3992820Yes, most people have an ulterior motive even if it's not outright malicious in nature. Charlie is different, she's genuinely selfless in what she wants to achieve and will go to great lengths to do it. Sinners being redeemed doesn't personally benefit her since she's not a sinner. I think Alastor would assume the worst of everyone, and Charlie has managed to prove to him that she's one of the rare individuals who doesn't just want to use him or hurt him. I think that Charlie has definitely come to see him as one of the Hazbin family, which is perhaps something he hasn't experienced since he was alive with his mother, despite how much it upset him in the finale song. I also think that the fact that Charlie doesn't try to look for Alastor in the time when the hotel was being rebuilt and waited for him to come back on his own could show that she has come to trust him just a little bit. He fought for the hotel and got pretty badly injured, even if Charlie doesn't know the extent of it, so I feel like that has to mean something.
>>3992822Deer instincts are the best.
>>3992822Rare moment of good writing on Viv's part, if it's intentional.>>3992823It would be interesting for Alastor to see that not all people are bad. I feel like he probably has severe trust issues and fears of being hurt/abandoned, so he puts up a front of indifference to protect himself. Maybe if he lets the mask slip we can see the real Al underneath. It also puts him in a precarious situation since he's made a deal with Charlie, I think Al wouldn't mind fucking over most people, but now he sees Charlie as a friend and not someone to manipulate for his own ends. I wonder if the deal will help him escape Rosie in some way.
We're reaching bump limit, so I'll bake soon...
>>3992825I kind of assume that's why he wanted to make a deal with Charlie. As the princess of Hell, she would have many uses so even if he can't make her hurt anyone, there are still a lot of things she can do for him. Even if it's just a way to get her to trust him, and make her amenable to another deal in the future without that restriction. Though Rosie encourages him to keep working with Charlie, so I guess she isn't too worried about them making deals. It will be interesting to see how things develop through season 2, that's for sure.
>>3992826Bake a Deer cake!
>>3992828That's a tasty deer cake...
Fucked up my trip btw, but it is me lol
