My voice reaches a previously impossible octave as soon as I am in the presence of a creature

when we saw the beaver last night we had just been smoking a v strong hash bat and i noticed it in the water & was so overcome with amazement and anticipation that all i could manage was “is that a creature??” (i forgot the word animal) and we both got so excited but couldn’t tell in the dark if it was a beast or just a log and were sure for a moment we had been wrong, then noticed it was swimming against the current and i was like HOLY FUCK IT IS A CREATURE!!! MUSKRAT??? and it heaved itself out of the water and ambled on up the bank to check on something before eventually deciding it didn’t want to be that close to humans and slipping away

This joke came to me in a fit of laughter (ALT description provided :3!)

my only goal in life is to make horror rpg maker-esque sunday art and have it in a sick edit

On your Alien crossover AU thing, I'm going to be straight with you, I absolutely love that kinda shit, my favorite genre of AU is "what if I turned this character into a weird monster?"

HELL YES. I absolutely love weird fucked up creatures, and I have a good handful of followers who have also made their love for my depictions of monster men very clear. I’ve got Alien men, a goddess of ice and serpents whose true form is a cobra bigger than a mountain, an emperor of darkness fused with the Pokémon Eternatus, a half-man-half lion centaur, you name it.

Consider this: ghosts are actually exactly what the Fentons think they are.

They're snapshots of a longing so strong, unfinished business so deep it reaches out beyond life. Lingers just a bit longer. And if it happens to meet a dense cloud of ectoplasm (invisible to the naked eye, but omnipresent even in the mortal realm), it coalesces. The ectoplasm fits into the shape of it. Which, when the desire is strong enough, it's got a rough idea of its self-image. This tends to mean a more humanoid figure, though it's more often warped in some way–a self-reflection, skewed by said desire. The warping varies on the dead soul’s perception of themselves, the intensity of their desire, how much time passed after death, and how much ectoplasm was present.

In short… no matter how “normal" a ghost looks or acts, it really, truly isn't human. It's animated ectoplasm with a single goal: an obsession. Nothing else. They're more akin to plants than animals, following a single drive with no emotion. They react to stimuli, recognize threats (including other ghosts), and can even imitate human speech and mannerisms to obtain fulfillment of their obsession.

Not “evil" by any stretch, but they're entirely driven by instinct. A tree doesn't pause to consider the rocks it breaks with its roots. A cordyceps doesn't torture its host for fun, or kill with malice. It just does. It follows code in its DNA to survive and multiply–And ghosts just follow the code in its ectoplasm to fulfill its obsession. The more powerful a ghost, the better it's able to overcome obstacles preventing this–whether through brute force, or manipulation. This power is always directly proportional to the amount of ectoplasm present at the time of formation, and how much time passed since death.

What then, does this mean for Danny? Danny, who's previously come to the conclusion that he's only half-ghost, which surely explains how he retained his mind? His independent thoughts and emotions?

What does this mean for Phantom, who experienced an entire world’s worth of ectoplasm condensed as a singularity, at the exact time of his death? Whose strength only grows and begins to exceed every limit they previously thought possible?

If a ghost was as strong as him… could it mimic a human perfectly? Down to a molecular level?

Could it, in its desire to fill an obsession… trick its own fake mind into thinking it was still human? Or half-ghost?

My LF vinyl came today!
