Description
See? They're not totally useless goggles used solely for decoration after all! Though I must admit, when I first came up with Thaxter's design, they didn't actually do anything.Previous: [link] Next: [link]

Well that's certainly an interesting point...Thaxter needs his goggles to see the ghost...but, Grimm doesn't? Hmm! I suppose, Grimm isn't exactly, "ordinary" either...

Grimm has a closer connection to ghosts and stuff, since she was brought back from the dead.

Everyone's already commented on the cute puppy, so here's something different:
Dose Willy Wonka glasses.

Where did the inspiration for their story come from?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Short answer: from a variety of different places, really.
Overly-complex, TL;DR answer: I guess it kinda started when *BloodCri introduced me to the concept of necromancers, which I thought were pretty cool. Sometime after that, I decided to design my own necromancer, which is where one of Thaxter and Grimm's earliest designs came from. ('course, Thaxter from back then was a WAAAAY different from Thaxter as he is now, though Grimm didn't change much.)
For almost a year, I didn't really do much with either of them, until I decided to doodle them again, which is when I started to develop them as characters. At this point, I hadn't really put them into a proper story or a universe or anything; they were just sort of there. I'd wanted to do something with them as well as paranormal ghost-werewolf-monster things in general, so I'd pulled inspirations from a variety of sources, like Hellboy / BPRD, Ghostbusters, Ghost Hunters, Gegege no Kitaro (a ghost anime I'd watched as a kid), and Hanna is Not a Boy's Name.
And that's pretty much it, aside from some other things that aren't that relevant right now.
