Description It probably wouldn't have been so bad if she hadn't gotten him to hold the loose skin whilst peeling it from her body.

This is for 's Worst Ninjago Joke contest. I dunno if this really works for the intended purpose, but there ya have it! General weirdness!

Since I doubt I'll be able to get this thing fully coloured in the next four days, I'm gonna enter the inks. (I'll update it if I do manage, though!) (Also, if anyone's interested in seeing the pencil art before I ruined it with my shaky hands: sta.sh/010os5wfntc5 )

And yeah, that Serpentine is my OC, Lucy. This takes place in the future of my fanfic universe (it'll be part of my long running continuity, if I ever finish writing the darn thing *headdesk*) so it's okay if you don't really understand what's going on. It'll make sense in the long run, I promise! But I'll tell you a couple things just for the fun of it without trying to spoil too much (like these two XD). One, when Lucy meets Acronix for the first time, she spits venom in his face, and two, since you can't see his legs in these pictures, just know that he's wearing a lovely piece of ankle jewelry. That he's not allowed to take off. :3

BTW, his shirt says "I ❤ SNEKS". It was a gag gift from Jay. (Not that Jay likes Acronix, but by this point in the stories, Jay has a modicum of respect for the man. )

EDIT: I am working on colouring this, it's just taking for freakin' ever. Colouring Acronix's hair is a pain in the butt, and I had to do it SEVEN TIMES. *Headdesk* Anyway, here's the progress for anyone interested.

Oh this? This is beautiful. XD

Acronix's reaction is too good. 

And now I'm curious. Modicum of respect, how come?

Aw, thanks again. ^_^

Isn't it, though? :3

Ah, well, that's a long and spoilery story and one of these days, I swear I'll actually write it. ^_^; I'll just say it has something to do with how Acronix ended up with his lovely piece of ankle jewelry. :3

Oh my gawrsh the lineart is so FANSEH! It looks like a professional comic! So many details and such nice clean lines.

And the little nuzzle in the second panel. Eeeeeeep. Can't handle. End me.  

And the Pokémon GO, and the shirt, and just . . . man I love this. ^_^

Thanks so much for entering!

Aw, thanks. ^_^

It is adorable, isn't it? :3 I can't remember where I read it now, but apparently snakes will rub their noses on something to initially break the skin and start the shedding process. Which is actually what Lucy is doing here. (Though she is being affectionate, too.) So yeah, I kinda now headcanon that a Serpentine using you to start the shedding process is a sign of affection and trust. Eep. XP

The original plan was to have him catching an Ekans, but I couldn't find a good enough reference. Arbok works just as well. Boy is all about those snakes.

You're welcome! ^_^
