Beginning of Starstruck Odyssey: Skip has the last name Takamori because it came with the body

End of Starstruck Odyssey: Skip has the last name Takamori because he's married to Norman

“When I held you, actually saw you for the first time, I fully realized how vulnerable you were. You’re such a small thing, can’t see or hear, just have to trust the people around you are friendly, won’t hurt you. I… thought of hurting you, Skip. It would’ve been so easy to have crushed you, to have killed you and never have to worry about you taking over my body again. But you were there in my hands, trembling, terrified, and despite where my thoughts travelled, all I wanted to do in that moment was protect you.”

Was looking at some of my old doodles of these two and wanted to redraw this one. Never posted the original cus I didn’t like how it came out, but I still liked the little paragraph I had next to it, so here :-]

Edit: Speed paint here :)

I feel like we as a fandom don't talk enough about how sad Norman's life was and how he could potentially fit into the weird little found family the gang created post canon

Some more old doodles I went ahead and cleaned up on procreate. I love slangst (slug angst) and slump (slug whump) :-)

Folks, I am still on that Skipper/Skip train, make no mistake. Anyway situation where Skip learns about human marriage customs, either from Norman or someone else, and decides well! What a perfect way to deter other cerebroslugs from stealing HIS host show his appreciation and the strong bond he and Norman have formed in their symbiosis!!!!!! It’s utterly foolproof :)

That one tumblr post but these 2…. Love the man and his slug :-)

Lil bonus

The eepys… tryin to exercise my sketching hand again, been outta it for a hot second 😭

The Barbie n Ken mugshots made me think of these two… and a lil bonus :-)

This is a WIP I started last year and told myself I’d get back around to finishing? But I never did… so here’s the sketch for now, maybe I’ll come back to it eventually. Based on The Mirror Scene, which I think about constantly

Okey here’s the final video! Maybe I’ll come back and add more fine details later but I’m alright leaving it like this for now. Boop :)

[Video ID: A digital animation of Norman Takamori and Skip from Dimension 20: A Starstruck Odyssey. Norman is doing push ups and Skip, slug mode, is booping his nose when he gets close to the floor. End ID.]

Wanted to draw these two again… I’m super behind on FHJY, because honestly, I just miss these two so much 😭😭😭

Hey y’all!! Haven’t posted in a hot sec, got busy with school then. Got TotK. So been pretty occupied with that LMAO but still been thinkin bout these two so!!! Here’s an old doodle I slapped some color onto :-)

So Starstruck Odyssey grabbed me by the throat and rocketed it’s way to second place campaign for me (TUC still has first in my heart ❤️) but uhm. Can you tell who my favorite character is. It’s definitely not Skip I promise why would you think that-

I need more skip x norman content asap and I'm not talented enough to make my own. Somebody please heed my call.

Two memes I was thinkin of to redraw… Norm n Skip, and Barry being woken up by the captain just kinda. Ya know, gesturing at his body.

And here’s the original memes for reference :)

Consider: Cerebroslug OCs. Idea I’m thinkin on of a cerebroslug sanctuary for those who are waiting on willing hosts, or either don’t wish to or aren’t able to form a host/guest bond, such as with the big ol guy cus like. Come On Now. In your brain? LMAO
