The Trickster, The Fool, and The Lost Children

Harpy Hare Where have you buried all your children? Tell me so I say!

part 2 of this post

The moomin disease.

I think the moomin-style invisibility trope has some real potential if applied to Joxter.

joxter posting, i drew this with my finger and a dream

Joxter gauche painting

Trying to teach myself gauche. Figured traditional mediums would lend themselves to that cozy children’s book style illustrations of moomin characters.

Also, it seems like the internet thinks Joxter is a cat man, but I would like to posit this little critter is more of a river otter. Or like a musk rat (muddler maybe?) or perhaps something in the stoat/Martin/ferret family. He’s got the same facial markings as an otter, we see him on a boat adventure, and the body shape also kinda works. Also personality wise, otters are just like, extra feral water cats.

Edit: or maybe he’s a field mouse? Cat seems to think so

Small blanket fortress

(study from Pride and Prejudice but made it moomin)
