Merry Christmas Eve everyone!
Thought I'd draw something special for the occasion, as you guys have been such a gift for me. Wanted to represent every story I've showcased on the channel, even the ones that have only one video to their name, with everybody having fun at a holiday party. Well, everybody but Crow. You know how she feels about Christmas.
I hope you guys have a wonderful holiday, and I'll see you tomorrow for the last short of the year.

Got a question about this, so I thought I could give some lore about the Reapers from "Requiem of a Reaper"
In this world, called Deamyth, the Reapers are not in charge of actually causing death (that's the responsibility of their creator Zagreus), but for collecting souls after death, lest they become a dangerous undead. There are 8 Reapers, with each Reaper in charge of a specific domain of death. In order of age, there's
*Byron - Reaper of Violent Deaths
*Persephone - Reaper of the At Peace
*Vasilios - Reaper of Royalty
*Sheol & Leviathan - Reapers of the Sea
*Void - Reaper of the Ill
*Evander - Reaper of Beasts
*Thanatos - Reaper of Criminals
They all act as essentially dysfunctional immortal siblings, and have their own views on death and their place in the world, colored by what domain they're in charge of.
Hope this was interesting, and that you have a great night!

I hope you guys enjoyed the video today!
After Byron's little foible, he and Jillian booked it out of town. Nobody in town stopped them, they were all a bit too stunned to have death in their midst. I think the girl Byron danced with was ESPECIALLY stunned, both by having literally danced with death, and the fact he was actually GOOD at it.
I hope you guys have a great day, and a happy holidays!

Good morning everyone!
Should have the new video up sometime today, all I need to do is finish the last few seconds and edit it. I feel like you guys can guess what song I'm using given my track history, but let's make it a surprise.
Also, "That's a Woman" just started blowing up out of nowhere?? Like 3 weeks after I posted it, it shot up to 100K in the past few days. I don't understand how YT's algorithm works, but I won't look that gift horse in the mouth. If you're one of the new people from that short: Howdy! I'm Joshquatch! Hope you're doing well, and I hope you enjoy all the weird stories I cook up.
Anyways, see you guys later today for the video!

Hope you enjoyed today's short!
A fact that you might've noticed, both in the thesis film and in the short today, is that the moon in the world of Requiem of a Reaper is alive. Her name is... well it's still just Moon, but it's her job to watch the world and give notice to Reapers when deaths are about to occur, so that the Reapers can then show up and collect the recently departed's souls. In this universe, Reapers don't cause death, they just collect souls after death, lest the souls stick around and become dangerous undead.
Have a good day ya'll!

‼️‼️UPDATE TIME‼️‼️
Hey, so, things didn't go quite as planned. I had to juggle multiple storyboard gigs that I got this month, as well as stuff like jury duty and the holiday bustle, so although the Death Christmas animatic will mostly likely go up sometime next week (if things go to plan, which, 50/50 odds given this month's track record), the Q&A video will again be postponed to sometime in the New Year.
I'm sorry, I know this is becoming like, a meme now, but I cannot physically complete it this by the end of the year. I really thought I could, but life came at me fast and I had other matters to tend to. I hope you all understand. I'll hopefully catch you for the next video, and I hope you guys have a great day

Hey guys, I hoped you like today's short! Thought I should give some context for it, which is why I'm gonna go into detail on the alter featured in the short: Abel.
Abel is the first alter of Eddie's, having spawned from a traumatic experience Eddie had where his family was shot by an armed intruder. This caused Abel to trigger whenever he heard the sound of gunshots. When Eddie signed up for war, it was actually Abel doing most of the fighting (since, you know, gunshots). However, during one battle, Abel encountered an Everyman for the first time, and seeing how young he was, he couldn't kill him and spared his life. However, he was then cornered by more resistance soldiers, where he suffered the injury to the shoulder (the scar of which is shown in the short). Abel bears this as both a mark of shame on how he couldn't protect Eddie, but still thinks he made the right call in not killing the young Everyman.
I hope you guys have a great day!

HOLY FRICK HOLY FRICK HOLY FRICK HOLY FRICK
Why is it that this sort of stuff always happens when I just wake up, I don't know how to respond, I'm not even awake yet.
Just, thank you all so much. I never really imagined I'd get this far with my videos, but I feel absolutely blessed by you guys and your love for my work. The fact that you guys want to learn more about my characters, or you make google docs cataloguing my worlds, it just makes me so giddy inside. It's what makes everything so worth it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all.
Also, I guess the Q&A video will be a 10k sub special, time to rerecord the intro

Hope you enjoyed the short today! You might remember this Dusk from the Halloween video as one of the few Dusks friendly to Olive/Void. She is called The Lost Coven, and although she isn't a main character, I do consider her a pretty important one for the story. She is very naive and gullible, and is often easily manipulated, which can be a problem since she is in fact very powerful. However, she isn't usually a threat on her own, which is good for Olive.
Can't say much else without giving stuff away, so I hope you have a great day ya'll!

Hope you enjoyed the video today!
Before you ask, no it's not canon. This was just a funny little scenario that my aunt gave me the idea for, and as her birthday present, I turned it into a full fledged animatic for her. Here's the original sketch I made during her birthday lunch, and I hope you all have a great day!
(also, to any of my viewers from Russia, the video is blocked and I'm not sure why?? I think they just hate Mariah Carey there, idk. Sorry about that)
