Scratch is so cool!!! Do you mind if I write a story about em? :0

Thank you!!! I don't mind at all! I like seeing what people do with my characters

THIS RULES, THANK YOU!!! <3 It really made my day!

I love that rude af overseer lol

REPOST !!!. HI i just had to make fanart of @goatgoatgoat7778's Scratch as a thankyou for being inspired by my post (overseer says "COPE LOL"). i love this guy

drops this and leaves. brainrot is back. thanks @goatgoatgoat7778 @discount1901

Another slugcat, based very much on this absolutely banger post.

His name is Scratch and due to his greedy and selfish nature, his karma is locked at 4 (so he’s hungry all the time, basically). Because he kept eating way more than he needed, he was kicked out of his colony; he moved to the Shaded Citadel since he can see in the dark. He’s not very sociable, and can be inadvertently rude (especially when demanding that the overseers point him toward the food). He doesn’t mean to be rude- he’s just a bit hangry lol. I’m sure he has a softer side. Somewhere...

Minor Change: I changed the food meter so that he's essentially always in a starvation cycle. I know it's just a game mechanic and doesn't really mean anything here, but I just think it's fitting.

So I'm not officially taking requests or anything, but if someone wants to drop a character or scenario or anything that might inspire me... y'know

woof

I NEED HER SO BAD

this is not a kink post lol but AAAAAAAAA NEW RAIN WORLD DLC TEASED I'M SO EXCITED

LMAO SAAAAME

I really need to beat the game with hunter before it comes out but I'm soooo bad lol

So a coworker brought in some candy the other day and a few minutes later I found out she supports bigots… then suddenly all her candy ended up in my belly! Noooo idea how that happened lol

thank you for the inspiration @goatgoatgoat7778

yes i do art, i just never post it to places except discord or twitter :')

thick thighed cats (for girl and boy kissers, respectively) before I have to focus on actual work

You don't need a super acute sense of hearing to know where Saga is hiding, but it doesn't hurt

Slightly different content this time. I kinda like the idea of a swallowed object making an empty tummy even hungrier by making it work. This concept probably has a name but hell if I know what it is

I think this came out fine for a one-sitting drawing, but the poses are pretty meh. I'll probably come back to something like this because I wanna get it right

Saga and Echo switch between gathering food and watching the kids each cycle. Since Saga is used to being a solo hunter, she has no trouble killing lizards and other creatures and keeping everyone fed. Echo, however, is used to hunting in a group and sometimes has trouble taking down lizards by himself- this almost always leads to a food shortage since it's hard to feed five mouths from local flora alone. Naturally they never let the kids go hungry, but Echo and Saga have to suck it up for a cycle. Echo always tries to give Saga his portion, pretending he ate while he was out, but his treasonous stomach always rats him out. Saga always makes sure he eats his share, even if they both have to go hungry : )

Another sketch. Her complex design was kinda intimidating with a pen lol

I'm out of town so all I can offer are sketches. I mean I could clean them up but…. nahhh

I think they're cute so I gave them kids. Happy valentine's day I guess? I'm not sure I like the proportions I drew them with… I'm still getting used to drawing them. Also there's a lot of cool fanart to draw inspiration from but they're all so different lol

Here’s some basic characterization for anyone who cares. I was going to try and introduce this stuff more naturally in the previous story, but it started getting long and I’m not sure how much people care for those parts anyway? Idk. Saga is a good wrestler and can easily slip out of tight spots. Echo (the Scav) is a fast learner and easily picked up sign language and fighting skills from Saga, though he. Saga moved away from home when she was younger to hone her fighting skills but returned home to raise her kids alongside Echo and her parents. After getting over the initial shock of seeing their daughter bring home a Scavenger, her parents were absolutely thrilled she also brought home grandkids lol.

I had an ftl fanfic from last June that I’ve been meaning to revise… so I wrote something completely different instead lol. This is based on the starvation mechanic, and the couple of times a scavenger got stuck with me. I tried to keep this one short since having to go over my own writing is terrible and I always procrastinate.

Saga the slugcat made her way back to the shelter, noting with slight disappointment that there were fewer berries to eat than the last time she took that path. She liked to gorge herself last-minute before hibernation; being overly stuffed impeded her athleticism, but it didn’t matter if she was already at the shelter. Though she hadn’t quite eaten her fill, there was still a satisfying distention in her furry white belly that assured, at the very least, she wouldn’t be completely ravenous the next cycle. When she crawled into the shelter- WHAM! She fell on her rear and found herself staring into the wide yellow eyes of a Scavenger that had been trying to leave just as she was entering. As they stared at each other in a daze, the exit to the shelter slammed shut with a heavy metallic thud. Saga had triggered the shelter’s auto-lock system and trapped this poor Scav along with her. Whoopsie. The Scav sat down and patted his side, motioning her to sit next to him. She curled up next to him, and couldn’t help but nestle into his warm fur. He welcomed the gesture, wrapping an arm around her and pulling her in closer. Saga was glad she had such a good reputation with the Scavengers- if she didn’t, things would have been a lot more awkward. She had no doubt in her mind, however, that she would’ve been able to take this Scav on in hand-to-hand combat if it came to that. Maybe that’s why she allowed herself to get comfortable so quickly. As she started to doze, she became unconsciously aware of a low rumbling sound that filled the shelter. Her stomach often loudly digested as she fell asleep so it wasn’t too out of place for her, but she didn’t feel any activity in her stomach. Her head perked up as the Scavenger placed a hand on his stomach as a more intense growl came from it, the quiet of the shelter only serving to amplify it. She cocked her head. You okay? He waved a hand dismissively in return. I’m fine, don’t worry about it! The long, stomach-shaking groan claimed otherwise. Saga put the pieces of the puzzle together- there was less food around because the Scavenger had eaten some, and he must’ve come in here looking for food- and from the sound of it, he hadn’t gotten enough to comfortably hibernate. She placed her ear on his stomach, listening to the hollow growls that resonated from it and feeling the rumbles that traveled across the length of his belly. To her it was like white noise, and she eventually drifted off to sleep.

As she began to wake up, her stomach gave a painful twist that made her wince. She rubbed her now flat and empty stomach and worked out some growls to ease the hunger pains. She ate enough so that she wouldn’t be this hungry when she woke up which could only mean- she slept in! She hadn’t done that since she was a pup! In fairness to herself, the Scavenger was wrapped around her like a warm weighted blanket and she can’t remember the last time she was this comfortable. She shuffled a bit and gave her companion, who had turned to lie on his back, a look over. Though he was naturally lithe, his stomach had sunken in considerably and his ribs began to poke out through his fur. It shook and growled and when she placed her hand to it, she could feel his innards churn and twist desperately for sustenance, loudly complaints passing through his thin tummy. As the racket began to wake him up, he saw her looking at him with big sad eyes. He tried to wave it off again, but a long string of growls that made him double over interrupted him. Wait here. She motioned with her hands. She felt a bit guilty for keeping him here longer than he needed to, especially when he was so hungry. She’d go out and hunt a feast he’d never forget.
