Nari Ask Game

14. Is he based on any particular breed of cat such as a puma or a British shorthair?

My Narinder is an amalgamation of different things. I took a lot of inspiration from servals and a domestic medium hair. So he’s got the comically large ears of a serval and his fur grows to about a medium length.

He has shorter fur near the beginning of his induction into the cult because he lost a lot during his time chained. So it takes a while for new and healthy fur to grow in!

23. Are the kits, Aym and Baal, really his children?

Ooh, I love talking about these two and Narinder. I might rant a bit, be warned lol.

They are not biologically his kittens. However, Aym and Baal are his sons in every other sense of the word. He raised them since they were only a few months old. The paternal instinct is strong with this one.

Narinder in my story is very much like his game counterpart in regards to the twins. He cares very deeply for them but continues to keep them at arms length in hopes they’ll grow to become strong and independent. When they’re resurrected, my Narinder rejects them so they will spend their newfound life and freedom apart from him. He sees his presence as their own set of chains. He does not want his existence to bind them anywhere so they can grow and develop as something more than his divine guardians. It hurts him to let them go but of course, he never outwardly shows this.

Although he may not admit it aloud, those are his sons. To him, they will always be his sons. And even though he never says the words, Aym and Baal know how much he loves them, even if they took his initial rejection to heart(which who wouldn’t). I actually have a small ficlet of their dynamic after they reunite with Forneus and travel the world. If people are interested, I’ll likely share it!

Thanks for participating in the ask game! :D

Back by… well no demand actually but 1400 notes made me think y’all might be interested, so come get your cat-lore-generating questions.

And please! If you reblog from someone, send that person an ask. It’s ask meme courtesy.

YOOOOOOO DUDE THIS IS SO SICK!!

You did such a great job! The line delivery on the last bit of dialogue was my favorite. CHILLS.

Thank you for dubbing my comic!! Everyone go check out their channel and content! There are many wonderful cotl comic dubs to be found!!

Hello! New COTL comic dub is up! Huge thanks to @moonlefey for giving me permission to dub their comic!

Hello new followers!

I feel the need to mention that I am also working on a oneshot for this au. It does tie into the main story! This oneshot happens well after the comic I just posted.

Tensions have eased between them slightly. The Lamb is not angry with Narinder anymore and Narinder is still an emotionally constipated asshole. So they’re making some slight progress.

I won’t give too much context for these little snippets because I enjoy surprising my readers. :)

Enjoy what crumbs I sprinkle as I continue to slowly chip away at this lol

(if you saw this post without the photos originally...no you didn't)

Anyway, narilamb angst be upon ye.

Sorry for being so inactive. I'm a senior in college, so I'm working on my capstone daily. o7

This comic was months in the making. Originally I was going to color and line it but that sounded like way too much work for me to get done in a timely manner so here's it in sketch form. Which I think still has the intended effect. (sorry if the style looks like it changes at some points)

This is a part of my au! This takes place weeks after Narinder's defeat so they're both still a little salty. Nari's becoming slightly softer as time goes on, though. Wonder why hmm

I love this au and I do plan on releasing some character designs along with a lore dump at some point...but that probably won't be until I graduate because I will be incredibly busy until then. So, if you have questions about my au. Please ask. Please. I love yapping about these blorbos. :]

okay byeee

I haven't talked much about my Lamb (Miel) yet, so here's a little insight. :) Miel is an observer. They are quite literally the shepherd of their flock. They both guide and watch over their followers. Sometimes they will sit on their steeple and watch the followers all day and night. This helps them be incredibly in tune with their followers' physical tells and wants, as well as their mental ones. Miel has a particular affinity for watching Narinder sulk around the cult when they spare him. They find his contradictory nature fascinating, even if they are still furious with him when he first arrives. This character trait is mostly based on me being incredibly nosy with my followers in game. Sometimes I won't even meditate to speed the day along, and I'll watch just these fools do silly things. Very entertaining.

what's a characteristic you've given your Lamb and why?

I'll go first: My Lamb talks a lot. They're a rambler, and I got the idea from spamming the 'B to Bleat' button in game. Lil dude has a special button to repeatedly make noise

Posting some old art!

These were some of my first finished cotl pieces! It was just a simple showing of the progression of their relationship :) From vessel and god to equal loving partners helping each other

Sorry for no new art, guys. Work has been kicking my ass. BUT I will share a couple snippets of the oneshot I’ve been working on. I sometimes write it during my lunch breaks :]

I promise I’m cooking, everyone! I’m just very busy and very slow. BUT here’s a sneak peak of a comic I’ve been working on for a couple months. This is like the middle of it so there’s more pages before and after

It is also apart of my AU I’m currently calling “The Blood of My Divinity” but I might change it later. Who knows? Not me!

If people are interested, I’ll do a little lore dump with some art and character designs at some point. Hopefully soon!

Baby's first post and it's narilamb

I've been hanging on to this drawing for a long time now and I figured I should actually post my art for once

This is technically concept art for a narilamb fic I want to write and the title of the drawing is "New Home"

So um hooray

Have the gays
