parkour civilization but i think way too deeply about the fighter layer

lore and design thoughts under cut

oh yeah, buckle up for this one

design notes - apf

ah yes, emf's species my beloved (i will not stop interpreting skins as them) ex1 ex2

apf's albino, so his eyes are bright red and his fur is completely pale

also yes, that's his full name here, it's not an abbreviation of anything

but he also answers to ghost if that helps

which kinda leads me to my next point, in a way. i associate this song with him (caution: loud)

the other song i associate with him is this (SPOILERS FOR FFXIV DAWNTRAIL) (specifically the third story dungeon) (you will not escape my love of ffxiv even in parkciv)

his tail isn't broken, its just kinked and has been for his entire life

despite looking like they could snap off if you pinch them, apf's horns are actually really sturdy

fighter boots have spurs on them, kids get a trainee version that have a stud in the back instead, y'know for safety reasons

wears dark clothes to make himself stand out less, the sleeves of his hoodie got progressively more tattered until he got sick of trying to stop them from falling apart so he tore them off himself

he uses bandages to substitute their absence, if he wraps them just firm enough, they won't get caught and tear on things as often. probably. he's making do

his tail isn't wrapped because it restricts its movement too much, which is dangerous when he uses it for balance

he does have two eyes, but he's also got a long ass fringe that seems to almost always cover one of them

design notes - seawatt

he's just a little guy!

there's not too much going on with his appearance at the moment, but he is wearing the same necklace as he is in this, it's just being covered by his paws (i also don't... really have an actual design in mind for it so it's still just kind of a vague thing)

lore

meta: initially it was just gonna be present apf, but then i thought about naphia's animation and i was like, yeah! let's add his past version as well, why not include seawatt? he's in the video and a fighter too, then it kinda just has a domino effect from there (i am deeply unwell about parkour civilization)

the colour of the effect particles around present apf is specifically F82421

apf's parents disappeared when he was still small, but he was taken care of by the adults around him, seawatt's parents included

apf and seawatt are roughly the same age and have been friends basically their entire lives

because of his upbringing, apf sees basically everyone as family, so everything he knows about the world and parkour comes from his family

one of the more prominent figures in his life is ms ami, his (and seawatt's) mentor. her lessons were absolutely vital to his development as a fighter and later on, his survival after the fighter layer was erased

seawatt might be the the one that introduced brewing stand jumps to the series, but even his considerable skill with them pales in comparison to apf's. granted, he didn't have to use them in life or death situations as often as apf did, so the gulf between their skill level really only becomes a thing post erasure

of course apf knew that his layer was going to be cut off from the rest of parkour civilization, everyone there did. but he couldn't just leave them there to fend for themselves, especially not when most of the people who took care of him as a kid were growing too old to do parkour

the difference between him and seawatt is that he understood why it had to be this way because he happened to be there when the champion briefly returned to say goodbye to an old friend

so after the layer was wiped, apf spent most of his time scavenging for food and blocks, most of the former would be given away to the people he was looking after

as time passed, he didn't have to push himself as far to look for food because... well, the number of people he cared for gradually dwindled, be it from natural causes or... other reasons

by the time seawatt returned to the fighter layer, there was only one person still being watched over by apf

he didn't get to see them before being taken to the master layer though, so he has no idea if they're alright. he'll ask to go back once he's able, though

design note i'm putting here instead of up there because it has more context now: yeah, he was designed to look unfriendly despite being the exact opposite of that. just like our first impression of this guy and then like, actually knowing what he's like in the series

not entirely based off the fact that he gave his last piece of steak to evbo when he went to face the parkour villain, but remembering that particular detail while drawing kind of just solidified this specific image of him in my mind as someone who really cares for others despite everything

[snitchbo]

Experimenting with my Snitch design, mainly experimenting with his head coverings

The top versions are how i usually draw him, but i also like the head scarf idea... interchangeable maybe?

Can you guys also tell im lowkey projecting onto him with this one...

I thought this design out very much, from his eyelashes and eye makeup to the kind of scarf he wears and why

Edit: speaking of snitch im currently making a smitch rp blog, its empty rn but feel free to send asks and follow thatd mean a lot @snitch-apf

spending a few hours and my accumulated image credits to generate crying men who kind of look like my oc saudi arabia anthropoliticalfiction

artfight attack for @thegreatyin of his two guys rigel and callie >:3 i dont usually do side profiles but this was fun to figure out!

here's my artfight come get me :3

[worldrevoked]

me and M.A. were discussing this earlier but there is definitely a hetalia-countryballs dialectic in which hetalia is all of the soft and funny and silly goofy parts of countries, cultures, histories and then polandball is also funny in its own blatant racism and shock humor way

like hetalias are generally more innocent and you don't really ask about the historical atrocities. and then you have countryballs doing the actual atrocities in question

and then countryhumans just takes the worst of both parts and you get something that's like, the clueless liberal version of unintentional racism instead of ducking around the topic or being racist and horrible on purpose

probably a byproduct of the platforms/media those things were born on and got popular on. anime/manga/tumblr vs german 4chan/reddit vs amino(?)

Brainrotting about A Potter’s Field is probably the worst thing that could ever happen to me ever. I physically feel pain.

2024 Copa America: Group D Focus

Interesting as the Euro is almost halfway finished into their group play, the Copa America starts playing. Sometimes it does seem unusual for the US to host it. Personally I want to see it being a predominantly CONMEBOL event. I don’t mind the idea of guest teams coming, but I do hope to see a South American team win in the true spirit of the event. Group D is only one of two groups that has…

Artfight attack of Rigel for @thegreatyin!!!

[the-wonderer-of-the-web]

one of my favorite weapons I’ve ever made for a series happens to be the simplest.

the trickster, a magnum revolver carried by the gambling and performance themed former bank robing hero: ace.

the only special thing about it is, it holds 7 shots. he tells absolutely no one about this fact.

[ariwritessometimes]

Hey! I have been reading your series “a peculiar fellowship” and I absolutely love it. It is so well written and I love the plot! Please tell me that it will be continued!

Thank you so much! I do hope to continue it at some point, however I am moving my works exclusively to Ao3, due to both low interaction on tumblr and the fact that desktop tumblr (where I publish fics from) has become increasingly difficult for me to use due to all the changes staff has been making.

I'll still be here to answer asks, but my updates will be Ao3 update links rather than posting the chapters to tumblr.

I've been quite busy doing some long-term substitute work while I work on my teaching certification, but as soon as those two things have been accomplished and wrapped up, I should have more time for writing :) Thanks for reading!

[snitchbo]

Am i insane for making more rp blogs for the same fandom...
