I avoid them. The only dog I've ever had real contact with is my brother's cockapoo, which is by necessity. I think it was my grandparents who scared me off a bit, they had an old jack russell and were very adamant that we didn't mess with him. Dog smell is awful, I don't know how my brother's house doesn't stink.

Imo I don't see NPD or ASPD. My mother and ex were NPD and while Alastor shows some of the traits, it's more vulnerable narcissism rather than the classical type you'd see in NPD. A better example for NPD would be Vox. Al definitely has dark trad traits, but it's more vulnerable dark triad rather than outright sociopathy. The BPD aspect is soft canon since Viv based him off a person who had it.

Just ease him in gently so he doesn't get spooked. My brother actually had hypnotherapy as a kid because he was terrified of dogs. Though after season 2, I'm sure Al would prefer to skip the hypnosis part.

Cab was an interesting guy, very of his time. I was exposed to him back in the early 2010s when electro swing music gained a semblance of popularity. People were doing remixes of his older songs. Funny to see parallels with Minnie the moocher and Mimzy.

So, about these, the seller has stolen photos from another artist I like who sells RS merch and is trying to sell copies of their work at a much higher price than they are originally. ($40 for two vs like $45 each) The original artist for the plushies here said they would be up for pre-order probably in the next week or so, and they would be available here: https://xpersonatoy.com/
Just in case anyone was considering it, idk if you guys care about knock-offs but the price might be better at least if you buy from the original creator.

They seem to have a pretty based attitude about everything too, though I don't see many of their posts since they repost a lot of Charlastor. One of the best parts of going back on twitter is finding artists whose art I've saved on there. I mainly use discord for deer merch, most of the general Hazbin discords I've joined have like 13 year olds in them and it's weird so I end up leaving immediately.

I try to save a variety of things. I typically prefer western stylization these days, though I grew up drawing mostly shoujo style. You can see influences of that in my old fan art here. The only style that's not really my personal thing is the more yaoi styled art and the Korean manhua style. I feel like he ends up looking kind of like a generic anime boy, but this is just my opinion.

Yes, you can see the influence, I love old shoujo, Rose of Versailles is still one of my favourite anime and I grew up on things like Sailor Moon. I don't mind the Hazbin style art, I'm not really a fan of other western cartoon styles, but I can appreciate most styles. Mainly I'm in awe of anyone who can draw because I don't have the patience.

The whole 80s anime/city pop aesthetic was huge when I was a kid, it was the pre-Pokemon days, so anime was really targeting the adult/teen demographic. I remember seeing some great stuff back then. Iirc the first feature length anime film I ever watched was Lily Cat. I was fucked up for days.

As an adult I'm not particularly into western animation, the only shows that I've watched have been Beavis & Butthead, and Steven Universe. The former is a nostalgia watch, and I'm looking back on the latter with a little disdain because of how poorly it was written, plus the proliferation of CalARTs style and woke nonsense in kid's media.

I knew a bit about it before because one of my favourite authors wrote about a couple of chefs from New Orleans, so I picked up quite a bit about the food culture. It’s really cool, when I get to visit I’m going to need an extra seat on the plane home I think. I didn’t like how people were making fun of someone on twitter for making jambalaya because of Alastor, not everyone is going to know every dish in the world. Who cares if they only found out about it through Hazbin, good food is good food.

In other news, I got my nendoroid today! I want to take some funny photos of it, or the plushies, but I have no inspiration right now.

I think I saw that post, what made it funny to me was that they were chiding her for not knowing 'black' food, when jambalaya is really just southernized Spanish food...it's not a black or Creole invention. Slimy okra would take that prize, but I've never known anyone outside of my area brave enough to try that one lol.

Glad he made it safely, definitely show us some cute poses when you have the time.

Yeah, that’s what I’m talking about. It seemed pretty stupid to me. Yeah it might be a bit cringy, but let people enjoy things. I’ve discovered a lot of different foods through media. Some people are so weird about these things. People are weird about Alastor’s race in a way I didn’t really expect.

It is stupid, more especially when they're speaking about things they have zero working knowledge of. I've seen so many poor takes coming from twitter and TikTok concerning Al's race, more especially from people who have never even stepped foot in the south. It would be sad if it weren't funny.

As a white British person I'm willing to admit I'm not the authority on American culture, but even I did a doubletake when they said jambalaya was black people food. But the difference is I'll research, or just ask someone who knows more than me instead of being dumb on social media for likes. It's weird because I never see any comments on art where Rosie is dragging him around on a chain, but if you draw him with straight hair you're worse than Hitler. There's a lot of people who say that because he's mixed, he's black and so he would have a generic black experience, completely neglecting his creole heritage. It definitely feels like a lot of people have just latched onto Al as the oppressed black person of the moment, and know very little else about him.

>he would have a generic black experience
This is what I get a lot of, and while I shouldn't go off on a tangent, I'll say this:
>Creole experience =/= African American experience.
Creole people did face increasing racism during Jim Crow, but it was not equal to that of other non whites. Creoles were almost like a middle class, and this afforded them more leeway socially than non mixed people. Creoles were also often quite racist towards black people. There's a good possibility that Alastor's resentment of of segregation wouldn't have come from white people hating him because he was black, but because they grouped him in with blacks, something he probably wouldn't have historically considered himself to be. The one drop rule was very controversial to Creoles because they simply didn't consider themselves black at all. They tried to marry white or amongst other 'Creoles of Color', and considered themselves superior to most other groups, including new white immigrants like the Irish and Italians.

But lumping anyone who has black ancestry into one big cultural pot is what seems to happen, and it's totally not racist at all...lmao.

The 'erm akshually he's black not mixed' is largely an American neurosis. After the one drop rule became defunct it actually became advantageous to identify as black because of benefits and affirmative action. This resulted in almost all mixed people identifying solely with the non white aspect of their identity. I remember when Obama became president and the rest of the world cringed when he called himself the first 'black' president. Like, no...you're half white. Most European folks who are mixed usually identify as mixed, and it pisses off American blacks all the time. A recent example was when an American interviewer asked Rev. Calvin Robinson if he identified with blacks and he very curtly said 'no, I'm mixed'.

Basically it's just people projecting their shitty identity politics on someone who wouldn't have identified with them in the first place.

American ideas on race do confuse me. I think it doesn't help that some loud Americans think that their way is the only way. I read a thread on twitter where a Korean artist was asking if they should delete their animation because they were getting a load of hate about making Alastor white. All the comments were basically "It's the foreigners again, isn't it?" which made me chuckle to myself. I'd give white Al a pass before fully black Al, since for a while he was actually white, and based on what Viv has said he's still mostly white.

If Viv's comments on his parents are still canon Alastor could be anywhere between 60-90% white. Odds are even if he identified with his mother she herself probably wouldn't have identified as black, especially if she were born during the Civil War years. It's ultimately just a bunch of historically illiterate bullies trying to claim a character and forcing others to adhere to their retarded world view. As an American I can honestly say there's a lot of shitty aspects of the modern US culture, and that's one of them. Al was white before he was black, if they can't accept that the fandom will have nostalgia for the Alastor that we knew for half a decade then they should find a different fandom to participate in.

I'm honestly glad I came late and didn't have time to get attached to white Al, since Viv was already saying he was mixed and I was certain if he was going to have a canon human design, it would be something different. I'm glad she didn't make him too different to what she originally envisioned. He still resembles his demon form, which is nice. If she'd made him into a racist stereotype, I definitely wouldn't like his human form as much.

It was difficult initially, but I was ultimately thankful that she kept his face the same. After all, she could have gone in a very different direction. I warmed up eventually because I'm naturally attracted to more swarthy guys with curly hair on an aesthetic level. I'm aware this makes me a traitor to some, but I'm fine with his design at this point, even if I'll always hold s special place for his old design.

Yeah, no, for a few reasons:
>it doesn't break board rules
Over half of this board on any given day is shota, and they have half a dozen offshoots as well. Nobody is bitching at them. Anyone can make any thread that they want. You're not obligated to post in it.
>we don't get along with other characterfags or shipfags
We've tried to be civil and it hasn't worked. We gatekeep hard because of the absolute autism that we've had to deal with in the past. It's the reason we're even here in the first place. Folding yumes and fujos into a main general is a terrible idea because eventually someone is going to be a cunt and ruin it.

So sorry you're salty that we take up board space, we're not going to stop because you're annoyed.

/deer/ and the RS threads are the fastest moving on /cm/ apart from shota threads. I can see why anons who enjoy more niche characters would get annoyed because it does bump threads off faster, but /cm/ is still drastically slower than most boards, so it shouldn't be a crazy bad issue. Worse case scenario we report them if they try to shit up the thread.

Truthfully, she made it sound a lot worse than what it actually is, I told her on AO3 that the protagonist wasn't a prepubescent child, but she played it up on Tumblr like the reader insert was meant to be a toddler. :| Even if it was, that still isn't against AO3 rules and encouraging a bunch of idiots to mass report something that isn't violating TOS wastes staff time. /hhg/ would have torn her a new asshole, especially since she was getting flustered by very mild comments on Tumblr telling her this wasn't the hill to die on.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he was somehow involved in WW1, I was reading about it and I didn’t know that they stopped civilian radio broadcasting in the USA during the war. He could have potentially been sent to train others how to use radios if it was something he was interested in beforehand. The navy is a good shout, since they were the most extensive users of radio technology. I wonder how Al would get on on the ocean, a little different to a pirogue on the bayou haha.

Top kek. Sounds about right for /deer/.

So, mild PL. Since my shitty ex was considerably older than me, he had a lot of prior life experience. Going into the Navy was actually how he ended up working in radio. He got a technical degree in broadcasting prior, so in the Navy he went from place to place fixing towers, training others, and broadcasting classified info. When he got out of the navy he went into broadcasting full time. He eventually stopped when he found that he enjoyed teaching more than radio work, unfortunately for me.

The only obstacle I can see to Alastor being enlisted during WWI is his race. The one drop rule would have meant that he was classified as 'negro' whether it was accurate or not. A shame. He would have been beautiful in a uniform. Ah, I love human Al so much. I'm glad I can post him here freely. :,)

That’s interesting. It’s something I didn’t think about until recently, but my uncle is a managing director at one of the big UK radio companies. Both he and my grandfather were very much into amateur radio, my grandfather used to have a whole room set up in his house with radio equipment, and a big mast in the garden. We were never really allowed up there as kids, in fact we were allowed in the music room more often to bash around the grand piano haha. So if I met Alastor today, I could probably get him a job in radio over here.

He would certainly look dashing, he would have to fight off all the sweethearts he would have. It’s a shame that he wouldn’t have the same opportunities due to his race, he would have been an asset for sure.

I can do the maths, the theory behind EM waves is cool, maybe I can help him do some calculations or something. I always turn into a bimbo when confronted with equipment though.

I feel like anything that plays into his interests might be good. He's surprisingly well rounded, he likes music, naturalism, radio tech, cooking, doodling...I wonder what he'd like to read? I assume horror.

I also think he would appreciate something homemade and thoughtful, rather than a big flashy expensive gift. Something Niffty would give him vs something Vox would give him, for example. He does have a lot of interests, I like people like that, they're easy to buy for. For literature I would also say horror is a safe bet. Any of the classics from his time and earlier. I can see him reading something Dickensian and finding it incredibly funny, as well. All the orphans...

That's exactly it, it's a bunch of dead cockroaches strung together, but Alastor clearly appreciated it enough to keep it through the destruction and rebuilding of the hotel.

Well, I currently only have cat and deer bones... I do like tasteful mounts that respect the creature. :3

Al seems like his love language might be 'acts of service', so doing something for him or making something that could be of use would be appreciated more than expensive gifts. I get the feeling he'd enjoy a lot of things that were supposed to elicit sympathy. He might find Les Misérables to be particularly humorous.

I don't know if I could be trusted to make an instrument, but I would try!

Up to you, you've been stretched thin lately, so if you want to skip a week it's understandable!

Gotta try even if it doesn’t work out, I’m sure Alastor will enjoy that you put the time and effort into learning to make one! I will see if I can bake this weekend
