History

i "made" night'march in around 2019-2020. she was a randomly-generated character from an app i used to like a lot back then, "dream cat paradise". basically, you had to scan qr-codes or barcodes and depending on the info within, a cat character would be generated. i'd find google "barcode" and scan every one i found to try and get pretty cats to draw and make into ocs lol. upon stumbling onto these two characters, i made them into ocs for me and my friend.

eventually that friend would make other ocs, but night'march (or, rather, night'something, i dont remember exactly, but she had a different name. it was really corny) stayed mostly the same, even if little details of her design changed. we shipped our characters and made up headcannons, but we weren't interested in actually making a story with them.

later, i renamed her "night'fly", changed her gender to male and changed his design a bit. i remember making an animation meme with him and posting it to instagram. im kinda sad its lost to time now, id love to watch it LMAO

eventually, i redesigned her again and made some more characters to start making a story

i even made little pixel gifs of her walk and idle ;-; theyre so cute

the next section contains depictions of blood and mentions of real-life abuse. hover to uncensor.

at that time, i was in a very abusive "relationship" with an extremely mentally ill person, and night'march's story slowly morphed into an expression into an expression of my situation. even though night'march was a self-insert, she was the villain in the story. it was similar to when an abused child reinacts their abuse in play, posing as the purpotrator. it was a way for me to make sense of why someone would act like that towards others, to try to relate to my abuser and convince myself that they were normal.

after the end of the relationship, i spend 2+ years trying to get rid of night'march and that whole story, but i kept coming back to it. it was the only way i could cope with what happened, where i felt in control, where i didnt feel pathetic, where i didnt feel like a victim. night'march was a horrible fucking person during that time. the person i was trying very hard not to become.

after those two years i finally abandoned the story and just used her and like 2 other characters from it as general-purpose ocs. night'march was still primarily used for coping purposes, but now that i didnt myself as a bad person, she ceased to be one, too.

so uh anyways

in late march 2022, one day i was playing clangen and got so inspired by my savefile, that i turned it into a new story. eventually i added night'march to it. a year later, on jan 14 2023, she got a shiny new redisign, along with a ref sheet (which is now obsolete btw lol)!!

the second pic is a gif i made out of an old drawing (sept 2022) to showcase the difference (its kinda wrong tho, esp the eyes??? babygirl looks blind for some reason)
