Just saw a widely shared video on IG about content theft which is good. It’s good people have morals. But can we also hold artists to the same damn standard? Tracing art off of Pinterest is just as much content theft for engagement. Copying other people 1 to 1 is just as much theft for attention.

In the midst of searching for a way to revive his crush, Luka, Elio is ambushed by a wild familiar... who happens to be Luka. Now they must turn Luka back to a real human, for a familiar that mimics a human shape is a monster to be killed on sight. #BluePit #Writers #F #R #LGBT #Q

A reference sheet of Elio Gaelri featuring a flat coloured fullbody, two headshots, one halfbody, and a chibi. He is a redhead human with a black vest, trousers, boots, and bracers, white sleeves, and a leather belt that has a sketchbook case, pen sheath (on his left), and a roll of rope (on his right). He has light freckles and three beauty marks (two under his eye on the right, one beside his lip on his left). On his chest is a wooden emblem of a paintbrush with two kelps winding around it, and a red ribbon dangling on the bottom. 

The first headshot depicts him laughing, the second depicts him smirking, and the halfbody depicts him thinking as he looks at his open sketchbook (currently blank). The chibi depicts him sitting in a chair, squiggle lines suggesting he's shaking or wobbling, as he smiles tiredly. He says, "I-I can still draw. Just need to wake up... haha..." in a speechbubble.

A second halfbody is added in this version with him aiming with a sparkrifle. The ammo is a roll of kelp art with one repeated symbol for a Pierce spell on small sections. When it is cast, the weapon "digests" it in blue light, leaving a blackened paper.A drawn reference of Luka Kazvikov, a human familiar. He looks fully human on the left, wearing a frilly white shirt with brown cuffs, brown pants, two sashes (yellow under red), and brown boots. To his right are two headshots and a halfbody depiction of him. 
The first headshot has his head tilted as his face splits down the middle, the top of it glowing blue. He asks "Are you sure?"
The second headshot shows his entire head open to a sort of eight pointed star, insides blue and lined with white stone-carved teeth on the bottom points. His brown hair is revealed to be a fluffy tentacle that reaches through the throat. Six string tendrils emerge from six points of the unfolded face as he hisses.
The halfbody shows his face had closed up again (though his face still displays a split line down the middle). He covers his mouth in shock, blushing, as he says "S-sorry! Was that too much?"
At the bottom shows quick doodles of where else his body splits up, which is in the middle of his face, chest, limbs, and fingers. Beside that, an arrow points to him opening up on all parts of those points into a starfish-like shape, many tendrils emerging out of the rim of his form. Finally, on the right shows his full transformation into a human-sized jellyfish, all blue except for his eye spots and a bit of human skin color on the hood, and brown hair colour on the middle stinger tip.

Two extra headshots above it display his human head in a side view, featuring him with human and shark teeth (both options are valid!)A digital painting of Elio, a human man with curly hair tired up in a ponytail. He lies his head on his table, cushioned by his arm, looking sorrowfully at a sketchbook. The sketchbook contains a partial drawing of a portrait that he'd scribbled over. The wall of his home in front of him has pictures of sketched human references pinned there. He is lit by a candle, covered by a magical dome decorated by mushroom shapes around the bottom.A digital drawing of Elio trying to draw a star shaped cookie on kelp paper with a pen, but Luka is leaning over his shoulder, his long blue stinger tendril licking the entire left side of Elio's face. The whites of Luka's eyes are blue and his eyes don't have pupils. 

Elio says, "Luka. I know you're hungry, but this isn't helping me draw faster."
An information box points to Luka reading, "needs to eat human offered art or humans to stay human. When starving, a Familiar displays more animalistic behaviours."
