why so celibate

-the jerker

i'm late to this because my pen died, pissed >:(

i decided to have some fun and merge Dragon Quest XI with the inktober prompts, so here's a grim gryphon dressed as a witch!

I adore your galaxy brain, and I also raise you this idea: Rab looks at Ogler's Digest magazines because he wants to be like the girls in the magazines. In one of the 2D quests, a bunch of old men are turned into bunny girls. If you talk to Rab at some point in the quest, he says "Hm, maybe I could become a bunny girl? Aye, that wouldnae be so bad—it might give me a new lease of life!"

Ever since then, I've just imagined that when Rab said he was reading the magazines for the articles, he was telling the truth because he wanted to learn how to become a bunny girl. I love that option so much more than the old "horny grandpa" trope.

somehow my one celibate hendrik text post is like the most popular thing I’ve ever contributed to the dragon quest community and every so often people still comment on it.

anyway I also have opinions on rab do you guys wanna hear them

Anyway, isn’t it weird how you can love a voice

not to post opinions about media on main but every time I open hendrik’s wiki page for drawing references I always catch the part in his bio where whoever wrote it calls him “perverted” and I really have to wonder. did I play the same game as everyone else? I have to know what in-text convinced people that hendrik is secretly lecherous like rab is. from what I gather it’s genuinely just the running gag about the porno magazine and that he’s generally attracted to women but… listen. I don’t care how gallant and heroic the guy is. he’s not getting any. he’s the most repressed man I’ve ever seen before in my entire life. I know in my heart of hearts he’s collecting those magazines the same way someone collects vintage lego. just staring at unclothed women and nodding like yes the photography on this is fantastic. every time he’s tried to start a relationship he treats it like he’s signing a blood oath and not in a romantic way. its in the kind of way where you wish therapy was invented just so he could have it. he’s at any given moment one stressor away from a heart attack. he canonically reacts to women being attracted to him by looking like he’s gonna die of embarassment. and you’re gonna tell me you think he’s horny. that if he even thought about boobs at an inopportune moment he wouldn’t just take his greatsword and chop his dick off.
