About

Andrew and Ashley Graves Redraws refer to fan artworks of the two main protagonists of the 2023 video game The Coffin Of Andy And Leyley based on their in-game pictures. Redraws show off two characters, usually from fictional settings, involved either canonically or in in-jokes in a taboo kind of relationship, typically incest between siblings.

Origin

On March 25th, 2023, the first chapter of the horror video game The Coffin Of Andy And Leyley (TCOAAL) was released on Steam. One aspect of the story that gained much of the audience's attention was the speculation on a possible incestuous relationship between Ashley Graves and her brother Andrew, a hypothesis that fueled a huge part of the game's fan art.

In this context, a specific format of redraws appeared: two characters, usually a brother and a sister, being drawn in TCOAAL's art style, based on in-game pictures – usually Andrew in his neutral appearance on the left, and Ashley in her smug appearance on the right (both shown below). The usual punchline associated with these pictures is shock humor, via the implication of an incestuous relationship between the two characters.

The earliest usage of this format can be found on Reddit^[1], where redditor i_win_u_loze uploaded on November 23rd, 2023 a fan art featuring Gravity Falls protagonists Dipper and Mabel Pines, referencing the infamous "Mystery Twins" shipping pair. There, it gained more than 3500 points in 12 days (shown below).

For example, on November 29th, 2023, Redditor GEGELAFLEME posted an example featuring Luke and Leia Skywalker to /r/shitposting,^[3] gaining over 1,700 points in one week (shown below, left).
