...human Angel Dust in progress đź‘€
Angel: Hey, Al, me and Cherri were wondering…
Cherri: You’re a cannibal, right?
Alastor: Of course I am.
Cherri: So, that means you’ve eaten every part of the human body, right?
Alastor: *sighs* If one of you are planning on making some idiotic, unoriginal joke about me eating someone’s rear end-
Angel: No, that’s not what we’re gonna do at all!
Alastor: Oh, good!
Angel: We’re gonna ask if you’ve ever had someone’s dick in your mouth.
Alastor: …you both have ten seconds to run before I start giving chase.
Angel: 611, what’s your emergency?
Charlie: Hi, I’d like to report a murder-
Angel: Wow, you’re such a little snitch. Hang on a second. Hey, Cherri! Listen to this fuckin’ snitch on line three!
I think every time you die "for good," you go through divine judgement. You're not constantly being judged throughout your afterlife, which is why the exorcists and Adam never fell.
The only way we've seen an angel fall so far is when other angels have decided it. The other angels threw Lucifer out, and Lute was the one who tore off Vaggie's halo and wings.
This is why Sir Pentious made it to heaven - he became a good person, and then he died (for good since sinners do regenerate/respawn if killed normally).
And I hate Adam with a passion, but unfortunately, I do believe he will be coming back as a sinner in the next season to help Charlie and the gang figure out how redemption can work, since they'll realize you have to die again to be judged again.
This also raises the question of how redemption at the hotel would work. Like, when they think someone is redeemed, will they just be like "okay we're gonna kill you now, hope we're right!" or something? Something tells me Alastor would love to be in charge of killing... (He's never getting redeemed lol)
Holy shit, everything about this is incredible! From the artwork to the writing to the sheer horror of it all, reading this was a really enjoyable experience. And I kept scrolling back up just to get another look at the incredible art! Amazing job! ♡♡♡
“Excuse me sir! There must someone you’ve confused me for!”
Having Angel withdrawal again sorry guys :/ its time for some uhh… prologue stuff?? I think thats right. Anyway! As I mentioned in this lovely post, when sinners die the time it takes for them to wake up in hell and where they wake up depends on how they died. So for Angels case his body was formed in hell in a hospital bed cause thats where he died so theres like fibres and metal in his body from being formed around a hospital bed! This is also going to go into how regenerating and how injuries work so get ready! Basically whatever your body was originally formed and made out of regenerates eventually, you can have scars if theyre really big (uncommon since the injury usually kills you) but if you die again in hell they go away. Angel gets injured quite a lot and none of these injuries are permanent. That isn’t to say you can heal by killing yourself though! If you do die while injured there may actually be lasting complications since bodies in hell are typically made to regenerate while gravely wounded. Its kind of like a fucked up computer so if you have a broken leg and die by say snapping your neck the body may get confused and regenerate bones and such incorrectly. Or it may not! Its hell who knows! Ill likely figure out a more concrete plan and way that it works but at the moment I enjoy this aspect of hell to not have a random cheat code and instead include some body horror. Its hell so like some stuff is probably confusing right??
Back to Angel, later on around season 1 in the rewrite he also has throat surgery to remove his deformed inner fangs and those DO actually stay gone because certain hospitals in hell (usually expensive ones) have tools from sloth that have been permitted by Lucifer. Similar to how Stolas got that lust portal gem or whatever. Angels body wasn’t supposed to form like that and this is a common thing to happen with sinners that die “long-term” and that sounds confusing but it really just means sinners that die in comatose-esque ways like Angel. His body was dying over the course of months (December to March to be exact) so parts of his body formed over complicated or were underdeveloped like the aforementioned fangs (that were originally meant to form inside of his mouth and not his throat) that would randomly bare themselves and stab his own throat, paralyzing Angel temporarily. Other examples would be parts of his legs and smaller stomach.
This is the surgery Angel got by the way (expenses covered by Velvette but thats a whole other plot line)
On top of this I also wanted to draw Angel’s old markings (at least one of them). Prior to Valentino, Angel looked much similar marking-wise to his original comic designs where he was more purple and yellow with all the fun skulls and stripes. Though, with how contracts work in my rewrite, Angel loses the markings and they change into hearts after his contract and cannot return to normal after his contract is terminated. The same is true for Husker and Niffty. This whole piece is really just supposed to capture to horror of waking up after being comatose and you’re suddenly not yourself anymore and also not where you were for the past months and your entire anatomy is changed. Can you imagine waking up without bones??? In 1947??? Id have a breakdown personally!
I also wanted to use green for that sick gross feeling. Kind of the dread you feel before throwing up, but also to represent Angel’s later feelings of envy that I was unable to present in his design. I really like pink characters in green atmospheres if you can’t tell. If I think of more stuff to add to this post I will, but for now it’s just a lot of lore. Hopefully you all enjoy it!
Lots of stuff today. First off, this floofy guy.
I wanted to try and making him look fuzzy without using line art so it would look more organic and I think it turned out pretty well!
Also attached are initial sketches since I like the way his face looks in these a lot more than how it looks in the fully rendered piece I made lol.
(P.S. If you're seeing this for the millionth time, sorry. Posting this one has been weird, so I'm not if it's actually shown up anywhere.)
