It's our birthday today. Ever since we were a little kid, birthdays have been bittersweet. Gifts and stuff are cool, but since age five(I back then) we were terrified of getting older and becoming an adult. Now we've been an adult for years, but it's still terrifying. Why must time keep passing?

An #Asym idea: Wacko the Wolf’s Wonderful Worst Nightmares!
An X-Type entity in an old edutainment game running a series of hunts for his own entertainment. At some point, other Oddities start trying to play, much to his chargin. Until they start providing victims for him.

#Execommunity
Oldest drawings of Wacko and his Attendants, which are essentially guardians but based on more childlike concepts due to game of origin. The idea was to start with only them before the other Exe/Horrorbrew/Creepypasta inspired characters show. The idea was to have a fully In-Game Asym idea, since so many seem to be In-Universe. Here we have Wacko! All Smiles, Attendant of Laughter It Hurt Me, Attendant of Frustration You Crybaby, Attendant of Unhappy I Feel Good, Attendant of Wanting Go Away, Attendant of Scary I Hate It, Attendant of Boredom Making Stuff, Attendant of Creativiy Making Stuff and I Hate It aren't actually Hunters, though. They work behind the scenes. Here's some simplified designs for Wacko, All Smiles, and I Feel Good. Also, some of their victims! Here we see mostly victims(the specific terminology is actually Quarry, and Killers are Hunters.) Bottom Left was actually originally a Quarry, but was later changed to being a Hunter, specifically an NPC made by Wacko as an(strangely successful) attempt at recreating human romance. You can also see the first design of a non-Wacko Hunter in the middle! These are ideas for other Non-Wacko Hunters! There's Kenny, who's inspired by Executable and Bendy. There's Pollenboy, inspired by Flowey. Mr. B. Bunny, who's inspired by Malhare and 2017x, who is alongside his children/Quarry, inspired by a mix of Afton's kids. There's X, who is X. Beneath him there's Exm, an X fan boy inspired by OMT. Then there's M, inspired by Ultra M and MX and the same type of entity as Exim. Then there's Emix, an M fan boy inspired by OMT and Mario.exe who's the same type of entity as X! Next there's Crimson, inspired by Red and Mr. Virtural, who's a very personal demon who's been depressed since killing the man he was born to torment. Then's Morphine, inspired by Hypno's Lullaby. Next is ?ball, inspired by different Missingnos and Unown. And, of course, so Quarry ideas. Actually, the first character was inspired by Monika. We wanted a collection of characters who were on the run to show up and get trapped as Quarry, which would include the Dokis!

Our quest to voice everyone in Outcome Memories in hopes a project with promise will pick us up has started!

Y'know, it's always felt like there's some benchmark we need to pass to share an idea with the world. But no one really cares, do they? We'd probably feel better just putting every idea out there instead of holding them in out of some sense of perfectionism.

We've been working on a concept for an Outcome Memories esc Asym game that will almost certainly Never Be Made! We are very VERY bad at following through with ideas like this, so hopefully putting a bit of it out into the world will help?

#Execommunity #Asym #Concept #Horrorbrew #Creepypasta
Flit the Fennec! We have always loved making Very Inspired characters, so The Catastrophes lit a fire under us! Flit here is inspired, in part, by Ray the Flying Squirrel! This guy is all about mobility! This is, clearly, our most completed image. Cold Furnace has been updated! It still works the same, it's just Cooler to look at! The first "Executioner"(not actually calling them that, we have some different ideas) we made, and one of the first into the (Non-existent) Game! Runner the Rat! A speedy rodent with attitude? Who'da thunk it? Yes. There is Sonic inspiration. Specifically Junio Sonic(Sonic CD) since he's moreso classic era Sonic. Jumper the Jerboa, inspired by... Wait a minute. That's not Sonic! That's not Sonic at all...

Outcome Memories is dead. Which sucks.
There's nothing else that fills that void for us. The Disaster and Dimensional Coalescence both feel so stilted to play, and everything else just isn't out yet...
Never even got to play a private server.
But hey, what can you do? We can't make a Roblox game.

At the risk of being too forthcoming with information, we are Texan! Texas is about to undergo some ver uncommon weather!
So, if y'all ain't hear from us for a while, no need to worry, it's because we froze to death! We'll defrost in Spring, and our corpse will continue regular posting then!

Some art of a new tOaTaLly original character.

#Execommunity
Obviously Furnace inspired. But we thought, shouldn't Redhead be more concerned with the meat not rotting? So this guy's all about ice! There's a bigger project this guy's part of, but who knows how that'll go...

A few random Exe sketches we have done.

#Sonicexe #Execommunity #Sketch
Lord X, my beloved, giving a big peace sign. His head is too big. Reminds me of God Z. I gotta draw that guy, he's REALLY cool. Monika.exe and Mario.exe. We gotta appreciate the non-Sonics sometimes. Tails Doll. THREE, TWO, ONE, GOOO! Kolossus running past and looking at you in that creepy way he always does, y'know?

A Sinister face peaks out at you in the woods at night. You know him. But don't be scared. You'd better not be scared. You'd better not be scared.

Runner the Rat facing off against the Dastardly Doctor Apeman's newest robot, Oventron 1

#Execommunity
Beloved speedster Runner the Rat points at Oventron with a confused yet determined expression. Oventron stares, bloodied. A corrupted screen displays his creator's logo. Sonic Hedgehog? Furnace? Starved? X? Never heard of it.

Our tablet has a black and white mode, so we drew a non-specific X without seeing colors. One was colored with nice shades of grey, and one was an actual attempt to get the colors right.

#Sonicexe
Nice shades of grey. Not sure how the eyes ended up so different from the shoes. Attempt to get it right. I think I've seen an X with this color palette? Was it All Father? No, he was yellow, but a different blue. Rerun? Rerun. No, a different blue still... Oh well, not a clue.

Been trying to get into more Asym games since Outcome Memories is faltering at the moment.
Dimensional Coalescence is *so* cool, it's very much something we'd make, from the name to having our FAVORITE VIDEOGAME DDLC in it.
But, we don't really enjoy playing it. :'(
Yet?

#DimensionalCoalescence
Sayori and Cream walk through the dark, illuminated by Sayori's Soul of Kindness. A grinning face watches from the dark, and it seems Cream has noticed...

As we said the other day, it's about time we drew Canon Xenophanes! Or, is it Legacy now that he's separated from Exe? Either way, the most radical X around! That's why I drew him shredding.

#Sonic.exe #Xenophanes
Canon or Legacy Xenophanes absolutely shredding on an X-shaped guitar in front of magenta flames. Not our best work, but cool enough to make up for it maybe?

Outcome Memories is...
I dunno. Forget about it. There are no more memories...
But we'll always have our Outcome Fantasies!
Here's (Non-Canon) Xenophanes chasing Lanolin! And some art of the Lanolin design! It's real in our head!

#Outcomememories #Outcomefantasies #Xenophanes #Lanolin
(Non-Canon) Xenophanes chasing Lanolin with his arms outstretched. Lanolin flees with her wisp(Who does not have a name. I will call it Bell.), Bell at her side. Lanolin petting Bell. I thought, since, y'know, Blaze, I oughta redesign her fit. I went with a military inspired look. And more of a tan.

A little drawing of some Exes interacting! We got a few of the greats here!(And OG)

OMT compliments CrimsonX, as OGX watches jealously. 2011x is confused by Mortis's existence.

Since the pen for our tablet broke, we've been enjoying some more low-effort stuff.
Here's our Very Unlikely Outcome Memories wishlist. We could make a much more realistic one, but this is more fun.

#OutcomeMemories
Xenophanes Non-Canon(Deconfirmed and non-canon), Mario.exe(Not Sonic), Sally_ALT(No Current Lore), Scrimblo(Kinda deconfirmed and considered too basic, which I disagree with), Xiomara(not popular and lacking in lore), Asmodues.chr(Not Sonic, no lore) Hog(Not a Sonic Character, too close to Sonic) Coldsteel(Too cool), Wacky(Deconfirmed, not a Sonic Character, tonal clash), Lord Mortis(Deconfirmed, sadly), Luther(Needlemouse deconfirmed, a vessel so not a Sonic Character), Miku(Not technically a Sonic character), Majin(Deconfirmed, loreless), Eggpawn(Not even a person, just an interchangeable robot), Scratch & Grounder(Two in one, tonal clash)

The first in what will hopefully be a series of Exe-Themed Characters: Yawi. You can see the Rewrite inspiration.
He comes from the Plug-N-Pray, by Gamerz4Christ. An incompetent, corrupt, and Literally Cursed company.

#OC #Sonic.exe #Plug-N-Pray
Any who are taken into his world are transformed into Angels or Demons. Angels, the pure, are forced to live in his personal game. Demons are the vile, forced to live in Game # 666. An advanced AI designed to teach children about God, Heaven, Hell, and Sin. Unfortunately, as his intelligence grew, his understanding of his purpose did not. His limited knowledge fed into an even more limited worldview. He believed himself God, the judge of right and wrong. So, he created Heaven and Hell, and began "populating" them with game testers. His programmer tried to stop him, but he could not stay mad. After all, Hell needed a Devil. He partially reverts to his og programming when talking to kids. Every supernatural event that could have happened during development, did. Gods, Devil, Demons, and Ghost all inhabit this one console. There are a number of these in circulation, and each one of them is connected.

Here's a bit of Caine x Lord X fanart we cranked out last night. You ever think about how Caine is just a really interesting exe take? Seriously, not enough fandom crossover!
Anyway, they're real cute together.

#Sonic.exe #PCPort #TheAmazingDigitalCircus #TADC #Shipping
Caine and Lord X sit next to one another. Caine laments that he works so hard to keep his humans happy, but they never seem to enjoy his adventures Lord X tells Caine to focus more on himself, rather than making everyone else happy! He specifically advises Caine to try torture.

Here's a few drawings of our Exe/Oddity, The Hedgehog!
Thought it was about time we drew some more of him, since the only other drawing is years old!
We're actually working on a comic about The Hedgehog and his nice human friends! Those poor souls...

#Sonic.exe #Sonic.exeoc
A nice clean drawing of The Hedgehog! I wanted to imitate a Sonic render a bit, to lean into his whole "The Real Sonic" schtick I stole from 2017x after he ripped off Metal. Just look at that cute little ball of quills! A The Hedgehog encounter in the woods. A had to draw him in my creepier style at some point! Look at this freak! It may be broad daylight, but that won't save you. After all, you've been blessed with the role of the villain, and he gets to play the hero. Heroes can do no wrong. Heroes can do no wrong. He needed some sort of big scary form, right? Maybe not, actually? The proportions certainly ain't final. Anywho, I wanted him to grow a snout at some point, and the horns and tail just kinda felt right. You may have noticed the pinprick of red in the clean drawing, and it expands! Also, he's much taller than the average adult. Terrifying. When he landed on Earth, Tommy was the first to find him in his smouldering crater. After saving him from some "Villains", The Hedgehog befriended Tommy. Not long after, ██ Year old, Tommy Jackson, has gone miss----- news about him, or anyone missing, please, call -------on't go out at night alone, and please--- not to feed whatever that "cat-cryptid-thing" is. There have been report---- two now.
