finally finished the new ref sheet for hollow for the au :D
following the end of the infection, and once hornet brought them to dirtmouth, hollow finally found peace after all the suffering they had to endure. unfortunately, the damage caused by the infection led to the exposed parts of their body becoming quite unstable, as the void in those spots is unable to form back into the hard shell. that is why they now have to wear an eyepatch (first made from bandages, then from hornet’s old cloak, a much stronger material), that covers their now blind eye socket, as well as a set of bandages wrapped around their missing arm. they are considerably weaker now, even after recovering from the injuries, so they spend most of their time resting in the house, away from noise and bright lights. this is where the traits they got from their mother manifest themselves: since the white lady is a plant (or at least a plant-like creature), she’s not very active and tends to stay still for long periods of time. in that aspect, hollow is very similar, so they’re not the most interesting to watch
once pk moved to dirtmouth, he slowly began working on a new arm for hollow, a custom made shell for their void tendrils made from scrap collected in the junk pit. this new prosthesis allowed hollow to pursue a newly discovered hobby: plush sewing. seeing the plushies of the little knight made by bretta, they became interested in the process of making one. with the help of hornet, they learned the basics and used their newly acquired knowledge to sew plushies of all the dirtmouth residents, especially their father, who now keeps all the stuffed toys of varying quality made by hollow in the big pile of pillows and blankets in his room, one he uses to hide away when stressed
and yes, since they have no mouth, they eat by absorbing food into their body, which then instantly dissolves into soul giving them nutrients. quite a traumatizing sight, but i couldn’t pass on the opportunity to make them a tad bit monstrous. they are made of void after all, and void is unpredictable and scary. i also like to think that, similarly to ghost in the game, they can store items within their body. who needs pockets, right?
also: pk taught them how to write, to make the communication between easier. moreover, he encourages them to keep a diary with them wherever they go, so that they can write down their thoughts and feelings about the everything and become more independent as a result
