carry me home I'm tired

this is so choppy, ignore that. i dont know how humans run. yes, rance's hair defies gravity because why not

lol cute.

well this was inspired by a game i watched my brother play. this dude's boss kept getting ambushed, and you had to go save his butt several times, until he got stuck in a burning building, you carry him disney princess style up and away from danger. :') and he died saying your (dude-you're-playing's) name. sniffles. luv.

i thought it was adorbs.

hmm after i finished saving this though i noticed some of the colors are a bit off. they should have been darker. oh well, idk it may be different on other screens.

:') I finally finished the first draft, after a long long time whoo. (note for me: on 2/24/17)
I'll stop posting excerpts here from now on, thank god.
It's on Google Docs, if any of y'all wanna read it:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xqrqw5isgO4n4TomHgn_9CiObWeIT9tyKZr8UqFz8sY/edit?usp=sharing

 It's still a draft (haha idk if I'll ever edit, but one day. lol. so there's cringiness from years ago, typos, spelling mistakes... etc) dumb 2-year old writings in some places that may not be relevant, so plz don't judge it too hard thx friends ;-;)
Aristocrat Darvan in celebration. poor dude lol
I'm proud of the ending though haha. but if you want to read it, don't read the ending first. ;-; it'll just ruin everything lol trust me there's footnotes in there too, so super ultra messy. but ye. idk whatever

Edit May 1st:

darvan with grown out hair, which makes it easier to draw.

he looks so ugly. i cant draw people anymore

but he helps old ladies with their horsecarts lol

such a nice guy.

final edit May 4th:

lol I love Rance. He's so dumb and cute. Darvan is easier to draw for me because his face is shorter and he shouldn't be as good-looking as I imagine dummo to be. idk, I can imagine how Darvan looks like irl, but I got no clue how Rance'd look like. He's so fictional haha. well ok

he ain't as classy as darvan tho.

also many different hairstyles because pretty long hair

_____

dude what happened to you

hipster sam with the new dress

lol off character

but sam don't care man. its cool.

you bet darvan cares though.

super ugly and choppy don't judge i cant draw humans yet and i cant animate nothin

well whatever.

idk what he's saying, but he's mad.

and he's invisible hula-hooping

no wonder he's got the hips.

aristocrat darvan sketch. poor dude. he'd make such an awful aristocrat, even he doesn't know it 

BRO CHILL

i think this is from the part where he tries to scare sam with demons lol

ye im such a nice guy

i support scruffy post-prison darvan so much

reminds me of good ol capn' scruff from ee game

MAN THE CANNONS RANCe. OH NO HE DED. my slave. oh wel.

lololol omg nooo nono

18 year old princess rance. 8') 

Rockin that braid, man. if i wasn't so bad at drawing.

good manbraids.

this is so old, but idk if i posted it before? i used to be able to draw his hair, once.

nice military dude, with nice hips. 

ye. much hula hoop. sorry, but that gif i made up there just ruined him for me xD

this is from way back in october and i just re-found it ha

maid sam

i made a small comic of what would've happened if ol darvan won. lol i exaggerate though. also, ugly art ignore.

i dont like beards, but i think he looks good with one maybe xD

although, not half as good as sideburns.

^^^ he's trying to crush a huge rebellion against him btw, cause he bad man

</3 sam :'(

(lol ok, idk if she killed herself or if someone killed her, but it's the same outcome. darvan then is either killed or destroys everything and remains alone cause he just wrecked humanity dude ;-;)

see, i'm exaggerating. 

but this didn't happen cause sam didn't lose and she stopped him! :) ye

trashhead darvan.

                                    nah this post aint' real folks, i mean this can't even happen.
                                                                     idk whatever i guess
                                                                            -------
i'm so late commenting on everything I'll get to everything soon. life's been busy and family issues and drama and stuff. y'know.

PreClimax - Wrapping the Story Around (no excerpt)

*There's another post under this that continues where this left off. <:)

I wanted to draw this for a long time, but I can't actually draw humans that good, especially not girls or old dudes or whatever, so bobbleheads was the next best thing. ;-;

i messed up on them but whatever.

This is the main cast, but there is also Sam's sick nanny who does play somewhat of an important role (more like conformation), but she only comes at the end and is mentioned briefly in the beginning, so I didn't draw her here. 

and it looks like darvan and bryce both love gold, but actually, darvan was supposed to be holding his necklace thingy, it's not a gold coin (idk if it's clear because the thumb is small ._.) he doesn't care about money, because he's already rich. lol.

Tara is the head-maid (darvan & the elites' personal maid) and she is super important to the plot even when she doesn't look/act like it. 

btw the aristocrats are bobble-caricatured, so they don't actually look like that. xD And I don't think that's how they dress either, Im just uncreative and can't pick good colors. but ye whatever.

I think out of these in the story, Darvan is my favorite because he's a captain and he's also the antagonist so that's good. 

rance's mom thinks she's a psychic. xD sam commissioned her so they can see why darvan "kidnapped" sam among other reasons (his main agenda ):<)

his brain has spoils. spoiled rotten stuff.

sam horrified

rance's mom amused

slap em man. he deserves.

stupid evil captain, messin' up people's lives.

5 year old rance was the smallest guy in the neighborhood and everyone made fun of him because his mom's crazy and his dad left  his mom kicked the guy out. :( and because he has long messy hair.

she put a spell on them

the taller boy's leg and arm got broken and the other boy smashed both his arms. >:) now they're both wearing casts. haha.

years later, rancie wants to know his daddy's name (Kornel is his mom's maiden name, that's the one he uses because she won't tell him her ex-husband's name.)

darvan's parents. his mommy was a powerful noble's daughter and his daddy was an admiral. cool.

vanera's parents. they wanted to keep her but it turned into a terrible year with wars and stuff and they found that they couldn't afford to keep her warm and fed so they left her for the church (which was also poor because the aristocrat taxed them too, but they did what they could). or something along those lines i guess

idk, all these guys don't appear in the story itself but i felt like doodling them anyway

"heres the thing lisa, i know he scared you a lot. BUT it seems like this is a wholly positive thing he's working on. look i dont want to judge you too hard, because you seem like a good intentioned.. um, lady? you have a good head on your shoulders, you're good and smart. Respect. Right?"

i found this funny audio but im too lazy to make a rances adventures #2.

out of character sibs

ye, but he only wanted to ruin world sam dont get mad at him.

when he goes to jail, he becomes such a drama queen (didn't happen)

suffering from withdrawal 

i feel bad for darvan, he's accidentally hired a big brat to ruin his day and mess up his room.

:( and call him the booger man. 

DaC first year anniversary [excerpt]

I think it was really October 2nd. i made this in october, but i spammed too much to post it right away. and i have the next excerpts post ready already xD Yup, it's another sorry excuse for another except. This is going to be the last one until next year though at least, I promise! ;-; I've been posting way too much lately.
And yaay I've been working on this story for a year already! C: It's come a long way. It's about time I finish it and say goodbye to those guys and move on to a new story. but i'm so attached to these characters ;-; the october story doesn't really focus on wars or cool fighting soldiers, just a dumb mystery that sam tries to solve in the higher-up leader levels but well, she didnt really want to, darvan started it.

>8( um no excuse you, i'm not crying! 

antagonist/protagonist moments. 

i think this was towards the end, though he didn't really cry. xD

DONT TOUCH MY TEAPOT. 

and no, if they knew his real name, they'd kick him out of his job and possibly hang him. ;-; i wonder why 

lol. friends! :D 

out-of-character sam. 

face painting gone wrong. not entirely sure what happened to rance though. x'D

big brother rance 8)

the relationship statuses between the cap and the elites. 

i can't draw graph things.

- ranciodo loves everyone exactly. 

-vanera hates rance and super hates the captain, but she likes ivan cause hes her little bro kinda. 

-ivan likes rance cause he's his big bro (noo not really) and vanera but he's neutral with the cap or hates him, depending on vanera's moods. 

-likewise, the cap is neutral with ivan and hates/superhates vanera, and he hates/likes rance depending on what stupid thing he's done lately. 

ok. xD

da boss is mad.

sam's trashy brother bryce. i don't think i've ever drawn him before. i didn't use a ref for this, so it turned out way too bad, but i'm dumping it anyway. he has little freckles (not as much as sam, like, slight freckles. i don't think they're visible here though i did draw them in. ;-;) and he's a pirate chief (lol i kinda imagine him to act like those motorcycle gang leaders we have down here in florida. xD the ones with beards and skull/bones pirate flags. they're such pushovers and everybody hates them except their friends.) he cares a little too much about the treasury because without it, the pirates will starve and they look up to him to keep them safe, so he'll do anything. even sell his sister out. but who cares, right? at least she didn't die. the plan went wrong anyway, so it can't be his fault. He was also supposed to wear those half-finger gloves but I can't even draw hands.

and it's cold in the mountains, so the pirates are almost always bundled up. 

this happened near the end. darvan was so mean to sam so she's sad and she hates him. >:(

but he apologized. ;-; pat pat 

no it doesn't excuse him.

hes trying to apologize-explain and she punched him.

ya, man! >:(

sam helped him break jail. he helped HER break jail before, so why not return the favor?

they knocked and shot all the guards.

                    GO BROTHERMEN I AM COUNTING ON YOU. >8( SAVE THE SHIP.

yeah, but history books do talk about historical leaders sam. 

he can't concentrate because his stack of papers is going to fall. xD

sam is doted over by her mega friend. lol. or in the mini comics, at least.

bridal carries! :D (LOL nooo he ain't her boyfriend)

this is canon. 8-) although it never really happens in the story (hey it's sam's POV, and she's not keeping tabs on dummy 24/7. xD) BUT he has little buddies and they're good friends with him and he takes them out to the carnival or something and buys them food and candy and stuff  and in return they do braid his hair for him.  cute. <8)

this didn't happen. ivan cant dance. ivan hates dancing. ivan hates sam. sam hates ivan. she'd never agree, she'd run. idk its just that, ivan is closer to sam's age than rance is, but he's just a monster and nobody likes him. and in the end, idk why i drew this. ._.

vanera stop tormenting him. >:(

i'm currently writing the best part of the story - when darvan gets captured. person [?] slammed him on the floor and tied him up. >8) I made sure it make it painful for all my favorite characters in this scene. well except sam, but she didn't deserve getting hit and tied up so she wasn't.

i think i posted a small excerpt about this at one point? idk i forgot

sam: i h8 ur guts >:(

dumbio: *grabs her hands* noo! D: we're best buds! u cant do that! but that aside, [spoilers some]

sam: >8( wow u guys r trashier than i thought.

i hate how this turned out, it looks so bad. eye bleeding. 

darvan on one of the Scavenger's balconies in the light rain.

that's his personal balcony because he has a whole half a floor to himself because he's extravagant and kinda arrogant at times. but at least he's polite. sort of.

i think hes singing "i just cant wait to be king" in his head. lol. no, jk. hes thinking about the spoiler issue.

I really hate this and I'm going to trash it. Maybe I'll look back at it someday and think "wow why in the world did i post this" 

anyway, sam is bothering her boss. i can't draw girls at all, she looks super ugly here. 

ugliness aside, it's kinda funny because towards the end of the story Sam starts pushing Darvan around a lot. after someone di-- um no. He pushed her around before and she wants to get even. xD

and she's telling person [?] to pay up (for their sins) and she bought darvan along to further humiliate him. haha.

it didn't really happen, but I had an option to branch the story this way. I settled on a better ending though. >8)

Okay, gosh, this was spam, sorry.

                                                     ___________________________________

I'm going to move this under the art post later, and yeah, I'm not going to post any more of these for a while, so yay! SPAM'S FINALLY ALMOST OVER GUYS! :'D

Also, this is super tall and trashy, so nobody feel obliged to comment on it. >:( Thank you.
