This is actually something I considered when designing my Manager.
Some things I kept in mind with my manager was to make sure he paralleled my Kayne. My Kayne can split his face apart as a “mouth”, so I knew my Manager would not allow it to open. He doesn’t want to be scary, to be a monster, so he will do anything to keep it closed, even stapling his face closed. I also wanted it to look like he’s slightly nervous, like his smile isn’t completely happy. I also wanted his teeth to look “perfect” like he’s too strict with himself.
The Manager is deeply restrictive of himself and I wanted that to come across in his design.
Did y'all hear how the Manager kept choking off his laughs every time they got too loud or too genuine, refusing to sound like Kayne? Did y'all hear how he kept suppressing pieces of his nature out of fear and shame, even if those pieces were full of joy or comfort? Did y'all hear how he kept rushing to kill the parts of himself that he hates?
Expressing myself through Kayne because we all want to light our homework on fire
Damnnnnn love it

The Eye (part 1/15) “Be N̷͖̟̈́́̓͒͘̚̕͜ǫ̴̢̦͍̠̪̥̪̰̰́̀̂̃͐̒̔͊̾̈́̽͆̿͂͠t̶̢̧̬̰͎̦̯͇͚̣̥̯̰̠̥̗̯͙̝́͌̽̎̓͗̐͒͋͛̏͒̈́̑̐̚̚͜͜͠͠ Afraid”
This is the first design of the long term project I have to design creatures for the 15 fears (yes, I’m including The Extinction). I wanted to start with the eye as it was my favorite. For this, I was inspired by biblically accurate angels and, of course, the classic line of “Be Not Afraid”. I imagine the Eye as something to dance the line between terrifying and absolutely ethereal. It behaves somewhat passively; doing little to actually go on a hunt. Looking into the eyes on its face or its crown will force you to relive awful memories, allowing it to feed.
If you would like to follow this project, follow the tag “When Fear Becomes Real” from the tags below. That is what I’m going to call this project!
The new combo avatar is complete! Say hello to Theater, the combination of the Stranger and the Hunt!
This charming fella was once an archeologist and anthropologist for the British Museum. While on an excavation, he discovered a wolf mask and decided to study it. What he did not know was this particular mask was the product of a Stranger avatar when they stole the flesh from a Hunt avatar. Both fears ended up melding into the mask and he became corrupted by it.
Now, he is known as an abomination by all avatars. He hunts down his prey using the masks, acting as a master of disguise. Each prey becomes another mask. He takes on the form as well as a bit of the personality of the mask he wears. Though…when he started hunting other avatars, that changed things.
Now, he can use aspects of the avatar’s abilities in his hunting. Different styles for different avatars. He does not become an avatar for the fears of the masks, but he can use some of their power and fighting style. So far, the fears he has masks of are the Dark, the Slaughter, and the Corruption.
He is not to be trifled with.
They’re both messes that balance each other out.
The thing about jonmartin is that Martin wants to be a romantic, he loves poetry and probably watches romance but for him it is a fantasy, a silly game he plays. Martin is at his core very cynical. Things don't work out for him so he doesn't really belive in romance, it is a pretty dream but that's it. He is pratical and realist. Dating Jon he has to remind himself it is real and he actually struggles with romantic gestures, it is something he has to remind himself to do, to remind himself he can do even and honestly who even has the energy and what if Jon doesn't even like it?
Jon on the other hand wants to be cynical. His first coping mechanism was pretend the things he was afraid of weren't real and goddam if he isn't afraid of love. It didn't really work to him so far so it's easy to pretend he doesn't care. But he is a romantic at heart. He saw love and he read about it and he has enough evidence that it is undeniable. And to be honest Jon was always to much a bunch of mushy feelings hidden in a grumpy (and bitter and afraid) trench coat. Dating Martin he has to hold himself so he isn't too much. He plays the grumpy unromantic guy at first. But he just can't stop giving flowers and planing dates (this is the guy that saw a theme park on a fear domain and considered how he wanted to take Martin to a romantic ferris whell date [until he discovered Martin was afraid of them]) and making all the silly things one does when in love.
TR: Martin is deep down very cynical about love but wants to/pretends to be a romantic and Jon is deep down very romantic but wants to/pretends to be cynical about love.
