Abstragedy Week Day 3 - Hurt/comfort
Knock-knock-knock.
Zooble knocked on Gangle’s door for probably the tenth day in a row, awaiting a response. They had been visiting her every day since they got back from the Spudsy’s adventure. Gangle had seemed sadder and more quiet since then -if that was even possible- and Zooble wanted to be sure they were okay. Besides, they always enjoyed Gangle’s company. And she had opened the door and welcomed them in every day (except today, apparently.) Just as Zooble turned away and was about to walk back to their room - they must have all gone on one of Caine’s adventures again, they thought - the door creaked open and Gangle’s mournful face offered Zooble a smile once again. They sat together in the vermillion room, decorated with red silk bows and littered with sketchbook paper and pencils. “Zooble?” she squeaked, anxiety in her voice. “Can I talk to you about something?” Zooble nodded, their eyes suddenly filled with concern. “Yeah? Was it Jax again?” "No, he’s not the problem. I am." she said, big tears surfacing from her voidlike eyes. "I really appreciate it. But you don't need to do this for me. I don't want you to feel bad for me, if you think I'm annoying you can say so and I'll leave you alone."
"What?" Zooble could have laughed at the idea of finding Gangle, practically the only good thing they had in the Circus, annoying. But they could barely put words together, her statement not fully registering. "Why... why would you think... who told you that?"
"Remember the fast food adventure? That's what Jax told me. And Ragatha too... I don't think she would have said it out loud, but she had some of that sauce? I don't know, I guess it made her more honest...." Gangle trailed off. "I just... I don't really know anymore."
"Gangle..." Zooble had so much they wanted to tell her, they wanted to stay with her as she cried, and fall asleep, safe in each others' arms... but everything was coming too fast again and all they could say was, "Why would I think that?"
Gangle blinked, wiping away a tear only for a new one to appear in its place. “W-what?”
“I mean,” Zooble said slowly, searching for the right words, “you’re the only person in this whole damn circus that I care about. I don’t know what I’d do if you weren’t here. I-” They were interrupted by the firm grasp of Gangle’s arms around their shoulders. “Thank you.” Gangle whispered. And Zooble wordlessly returned the hug. After they pulled away from each other, they just sat there, leaning against Gangle’s four poster bed. It wasn’t awkward really, they could just stay for as long as they wanted, being in each other’s presence. “I mean,” Zooble mused, “what reason would I have not to be honest with you? If I didn’t want to come over, I wouldn’t have. I do that all the time with Caine anyway…” and they suddenly became aware of what they were saying - oh shit why did I say that she probably doesn’t want to talk about it anymore we were doing fine and of course I had to go ruin it what the fuck is wrong with me -
But then Gangle cracked a smile. And she started to giggle. Which made Zooble smile too, and before they knew it they were both laughing together, gasping for breath, not even knowing why. It had been so long since Zooble had heard that sound out of their own mouth, and when they had both calmed down, they looked lovingly at each other.
Like they were the only people in the world.
im so excited for this and I'm def gonna write a story or 2, possibly post an edit if capcut isn't being a dick
hey there! the abstragedy community has all come together to dedicate a week to our beloved ship. if you’re unaware, it is the ship between zooble x gangle from the amazing digital circus! all participation is accepted, and welcomed!
you can do whatever you please—make physical art, digital art, write a short story, anything along those lines.
only rules are that:
while any character from the amazing digital circus can be in your drawings/writings/etc, main focus should be on the ship!
SFW ONLY!! slightly suggestive dialogue is okay, but it MUST have a warning!
no AI “art”. please.
nothing disrespectful! no slurs, no ship hate, no hate in general, the usual things that wouldn’t be tolerated.
anyways, here’s the list! (don’t pay attention to the fact that i spelled abstragedy wrong in it :’3)
it’s already stated here, but the week is from january 5th to january 10th!
reblogs are very much appreciated! i kindly implore you to spread the word! :D
enjoy!! we’re all so excited to see what you guys create <3
use the tag “#abstragedy week” in whatever you create so that we can see it!
ITS EVERYTHING I WANTED AND MORE🥹🥹🥹
(yapping under the cut)
I really liked how they portrayed gangle in this one, the struggle with trying to please everyone is shown so perfectly in her!
My theory about her mask was right!! ABSTRAGEDY WIN
Caine and bubble sharing a tongue is so out of pocket but I'm here for it
The background designers outdid themselves with this one,
zooble's room looks so cool and fits their vibe so well,
and the restaurant and caine's office look really realistic too!
GUMMIGOO CAME BACK!!
Jax and ragatha were fuckin hilarious
Gangle said the huffing paint thing!
The scene where she throws her mask was actually so moving to me for no reason
and of course, THE ENDING?? my heart fucking melted
I can really see why glitch was hyping this up so much, its easily my favorite and I'm so excited to see what they create next! (open to discussions as always, I'd love to hear your thoughts!!)
... Okay hear me out-
getting handsy with each other
"Me and my girlfriend pulling up to jump Jax"
I tried out a new lineart style and holy... #?!(-)!?# did this take WAY too long to make and I messed up gangle's arm big-time and didn't even notice until it was too late!!! Xd
I also experimented a little with colors and I like it.
Ps: I used NO reference for the hands... As you can rightfully tell by how they look.
Some abstragedy for the soul.
Thought I'd draw zooble as a bartender.
(No, I'm not drawing a background)
(Got hit by art improvemen again)
Forgot eyebrows/eyelashes R.i.p
Going to be offline until later tomorrow, here's some abstragedy doodles.
References.
Abstragedy suggested by my sister. (Date night)
(Sorry sis, no popcorn lol)

Probably The Amazing Digital Circus!
Here's the speed paint (or whatever you call it)

Abstragedy week day 6: Free Day!
I took inspiration from the end credits of the amazing digital circus. This one was really chill to draw! I’m a bit glad to be done so I have some more time to draw other things and read some more 😎
Abstragedy Day 5: Any AU!
This is based on The Greatest Traveling Circus AU, by @lumineary-arts ! Check it out it is super amazing!!! They have made such beautiful art and animatics of this AU and I honestly cannot get enough of it!
Abstragedy week day 4: After Spudsys!
They hung out and Gangle shared her super cool drawings with Zooble, and everyone was happy, yayyyyyy!!!!! XD
I included my sketch cause I felt like it. :3 this one did take a bit longer than I expected it to mostly cause I kept having to look for reference photos 💀
Abstragedy week day 2: Confession!
Everyone was doing such amazing and adorable confession art and stories! I’m so sorry I had to ruin it with my angst 💀
(Im calling some art I did earlier my day one art)
Here is my day one art, yep reusing art I already made 😎 (I got busy :3 )
Just gunna leave this here and probably forget to draw anything ever again. ✌️
@strawberry-souffle
No truer words have been spoken
abstragedy <333
It peeves me off a bit when people say "Oh I HC that Gangle taught Zooble how to draw"...when realistically Zooble would probably be better than her cause they were a tattoo artist
Like you have to take into account that their art skills had to be good enough that people would pay them to get it permanently on their body😭
This has no underlying meaning, I just really wanted to draw them and thought this was a cool idea
Also this is my first actual TADC fanart, hooray ig?
Goddammit, Gooseworx, why'd you have to make the two characters with the most romantic tension the hardest to draw
Bored while babysitting, so I drew abstragedy
This is my first time drawing either of them, bare with me
