Pandora!!! You got OCs?? Who who do tell!! If you want. I just saw you mention it in the tags of one of you posts and I'm curious ^^

- Ignore the name thats my main, its Sticks here!

HI STICKS HIII!! :D

Okay I just tried listing them all and idk if I got all of them but 🫶 we slay

My Sol Dimension OCs:

Grim the Goat (He's kinda a replacement for Eggman Nega, so he's the main antagonist in my version of the Sol Dimension. He's a skeleton goat who's a wizard and basically immoral. He's SUUUPER silly tho. He runs a lil ship with his niece, Lanolin (Yeah, I throw her in because she doesn't have a place in this AU) and she's always mega stressed because Grim does the stupidest and wackiest things.)

Cove the Wren (Kinda takes the role of Tikal/Knuckles for the Sol Dimension. He lives on Sky Babylon protecting the Master Emerald. He's actually an adult, so that's why he is the main protector. The rest of the Babylonians aren't extinct though, so good for him!)

Solaris the God of Destruction (I yoinked the name!! She's the Sol Dimension's version of Chaos. She's a wisp and lives outside the Master Emerald. She takes on the shape of a mobian phoenix, and she actually has wings. She's perfect much nonverbal, but she can make sounds like cats would lol, their chirps and hissing. She's attached to Cove, since he's been guarding her so long.)

My Future Timeline OC:

Steel the Hedgehog (She's Silver's mother, and since this AU is a DADow AU... You can fill in the blanks. She's courageous and kind of impulsive. She's somewhere on the Aroace spectrum, but she fell for Shadow after he saved her once. She's kinda insane but she's a girlboss for it. She gets killed by Mephiles when Silver is an infant LOL.)

Main AU OC:

Zurui the Chameleon (She was in the Dojo that Espio grew up with, and she was one of the people who trained him. Idk if she was his mother or what. The dojo was really strict, actually abusive when people didn't meet the standard, so Espio left.)

Fankid AU:

Sonadow:

Spirit the Hedgehog (Weak kid with a few health problems. He's the result of Project Spirit, and was made to see spirits, hence the name. He is the first successful attempt, but is physically weak because of it. Shadow rescues him and Spitfire from whoever made them, and so Spirit grows up normally, taking interest in stuff like art, literature, and mechanics. When Spirit starts seeing ghosts, he gets to interact with Maria, whose ghost was still hanging around Shadow since she hadn't moved on yet. Spirit and Maria get to interact, and they become friends, telling each other things. Scares the hell out of Shadow tho LOL. Eventually, Spirit learns how to project spirits using chaos energy, and Shadow almost CRIES LOL... HIS SISTERRRR)

Spitfire the Hedgehog (Spitfire was made to defend the lab and is more of a power type, but was taken away as an infant. As she grew up, she had to start defending Spirit, since he's weak and kinda strange lol. When Spark comes into the picture, she has to make sure Spirit doesn't get hurt, or worse. Spark only being interested in Spirit makes Spitfire insecure, since she starts to think she isn't good enough. It's okay she gets a girlfriend who's very nice. Spitfire is very energetic and a thrill seeker, she's a bit crazy but she's a good person.)

Spark the Hedgehog (The youngest and fastest of the three, made from the leftover DNA of Sonic and Shadow, but he was altered enough so he looks their age. Spark sees himself as a pawn, just a tool to be used, he believes he doesn't have autonomy and just bends to the will of who's commanding him. He was created for the sole purpose of retrieving Spirit due to Spirits abilities, but has been stopped by Spirit's family. I've thought about having something where Spark injures Spirit, and it breaks his worldview a bit)

Silvaze:

Smolder the Hedgehog (He's the heir to the throne of Soleanna (I use the name for Blaze's kingdom bc I wouldn't use it in my 06). Oldest of 3, and the one without powers. He has a physical prowess though, so that makes up for it. He's responsible and booksmart, he wants to prove himself to be a good role model and eventual ruler.)

Ash the Cat (Middle child, who was originally going to be the youngest until I made Ember, lol. She's transfem, and her parents are very supportive of her. She's currently the least fleshed out, since Ember took a lot of her concepts lol. She has psychokinesis tho! I really really need to flesh her out...)

Ember the Cat (Youngest child, she was trained to guard the Sol Emeralds, and has pyrokinesis. She also is being trained to keep relations and communication between Sky Babylon and Soleanna, becoming great friends with Tide, who is in line to be the next protector of the Master Emerald. Her and Tide end up dating btw 💕. Ember is shy but appears reserved and mature. Ember's "burning" form is called "Ignited Ember".)

Sonilver:

Cobalt the Hedgehog (Created when Silver and Sonic used the Time Stones simultaneously. They have control over time, freely passing through it. They have seen a lot of history, and has found it interesting, but hadn't truly befriended anyone. Silver eventually finds them, and offers them a choice to live with him. They eventually decide to reach out, and they do become like family to Silver, and eventually to Sonic too. Silver and Sonic aren't together tho lol. Cobalt is AMAB but is kinda genderfluid/gender apathetic and goes by all pronouns. They identify with different parts of masculinity and femininity)

Non-ship fankid AU OCs:

Tide the Dove (The student of Cove's successor, who is going to be the guardian of the Master Emerald one day. He's shy but polite, appearing awkward at times. He had a crush on Ember for a while, but Ember actually asked him out first lol.)

Hearts the Chinchilla (Very polite and friendly, and she has a interest in baking and crochet. Spitfire fell for her and now they're girlfriends. She's very different from Spitfire, and that's why Spitfire likes her. She also gets along with Spirit.)

Miscellaneous OCs(?):

Hazard the Biolizard (She's just the Biolizard if she was more like Mobian. I don't have a lot down for her personality yet but she's another ARK sibling. Girlfail.)

Melody the Chao (Just a Chao I had in my playthrough of SA2. Knuckles is a single mother bc Knuckles was the only one I'd bring to the Chao Garden for a lil while lol)

Wasn't expecting to ramble endlessly lol

Prompts Anyone?

So, I used to jot down random ideas I had in a notebook. I still try to do that, but now they exist moreso in my 'Writer's Junk' folder in the form of 'prompts.' Sometimes they are an actual prompt for an idea that I don't have a plot for, or sometimes it's just a reminder for me to remember what on Earth this idea was supposed to be. I've kept some of the prompts that have actually spiraled into full ideas, ones that are too confusing, and ones that I'm a little embarrased to share, but otherwise, here's a list of 'prompts' for anybody to use for any idea. (Mostly Megaman prompts, some Sonic, some FMA, and just a sprinkle of Zelda and Pokemon.) (They're also completely unedited, so there's some random typos here and there.)

-What if Link and Zelda had a kid and named him Zero?

-Lan is a Zorua

-Ad-liberation- In which Tomahawkman is the only one out of the loop concerning Dark Megaman and Liberation Missions

-In which Omega-Xis is turned into a human and has amnesia

-A world where Navis are the masters, and while humans are not mistreated, they have to do whatever the Navis tell them to

-Sonic story based off 'Be Somewhere'

-Lan and Chaud accidentally get the wrong Navis

-Reality altering device that looks like a butterfly and Lan (at first) is the only one who realizes the 'butterfly effect.'

-Hyrule Needs a Hero, and Sonic Just So Happens To Be One (amnesia included.)

-'Bad Ending' thing where Giro has 'died' but Model O saves him, but at the cost of Giro becoming completely dependant on the deranged Biometal

-Cross Fusion requires a bond, right? Chaud doesn't have the right kind with Protoman, so he's going to work on becoming the best friend he can be. Protoman is worried for his NetOp's health and safety.

-Copy X gets blasted to the BN with a disability, gets adopted by Tadashi, and Lan is unsure if Copy is his uncle or his brother.

-Copy X turns out sweet and innocent. Harpuia is yeeted to the throne, and the others have to deal with 'Mini X'

-Legend of Zelda/ Star Force crossover

-Geo and Lan are in the wrong time periods. Have the opposite partner

-X is holding Megaman's PET (I really don't know where this would go) (Let's try it anyways)

-Cyber Elf X except he's Hub

-Linked Universe but it's Mega Man

-Duo restores earth (animeverse) but at the cost of the CF members having to go with him throughout the galaxy, to 'find the light' on other planets. (So in other words, the captian has a crew that has to convince him not to blow up every planet he comes across.)

-Legends Arcues Zorua twins

-Pokemon except it's in the world of Mega Man Legends. Ash is a purifier unit, but of course has no clue and wants to go on a journey. Misty's got a boat, Brock's doing his Breeder thing, and it's basically Pokemon except in the year 80XX

-Sonic Prime but it's the characters' actual personalities

-Trill shows up in the anime dimension about 6 years too early, and it takes the entirety of EXE, Axess, and Stream before anybody really figures things out. (Trill is also human, sorta)

-If Sonic was a 'teen' anime that worked like an anime/manga and not a game or comic (bits of inspiration from those really cool 'sonic anime openings' plot wise)

-In a world where viruses materialize in reality, and humans with illnessness and disibility are given NetNavi powers to fight back, there is one duo is just a bit stranger than most. Hub Hikari is the youngest human to have ever been given Navi powers,

-Megaman suddenly got the feeling that Lt. Hawkeye was just as good a shot as Searchman was. And that was honestly terrifying. (Now that's a prompt.)

-FMA modern AU and Al's a cell phone. (And Team Mustang is a police precinct)

-BotW/FMA

-In which some humans ended up on the Net, but not all of them

Which episodes from canon are you removing from your AU?

Well... I have 2 main lists of episodes I want to remove:

Episodes I'm pretty sure (by now) I'm going to remove: Robustus (the implications of AIs being able to be akumatized is not something I want to work on), Gigantitan, Animaestro, Chris Master, Oblivio, Gamer 2.0 (I really like the akuma dynamic but I don't want to use the same akuma again for most cases), Stormy Weather 2, Time Tagger (definitely no time travel here), Puppeteer 2, Party Crasher, Oblivio, Efemeral, Chat Blanc (I also don't want to do what if episodes. But I really like chat blanc's concept, so I'm still unsure about adding him somewhere else or not), Sole crusher, queen banana, hack-san, simpleman, dearest family, penalteam, Evolution, determination and revolution (And basically every special like NY etc)

Episodes I'm still unsure about removing or not: Copycat, Animam (I'll likely remove these 2), the pharaoh, horrificator, guitar villain, pixelator, princess fragrance, glaciator (I just hate Andre too much...), frozer, bakerix, reflekdoll, startrain, kwami buster, feast, ladybug, heart hunter and miracle queen, Mr pigeon 72, furious Fu, mega leech, guiltrip, crocoduel, glaciator 2, qilin, juro neko, and most of season 3 (except for destruction, passion, exaltation, kwamis choice and emotion)

BUT, tbh, not only those lists can change VERY much, but that also doesn't mean that I'm going to delete the whole plot of those episodes. The thing is:

1- There are many episodes that I'm going to keep the basic premise, but change most of the stuff that happens in them (for example: I plan to keep the episode "Kung food", but only the premise of "marinette's uncle gets akumatized because of a chef competition". Everything else that happens- such as Chloe being the judge- will likely change to a different plot). That means that many episodes that I plan to "remove" are just going to be given new plotlines to their basic premises. The opposite is also true- maybe there's a specific plot that happens in the episode (that isn't necessarily part of the "main plot"- or at least of what occupies most part of the episode, like the akuma) that I want to keep, BUT since the rest is either not interesting to me or simply wouldn't work in the AU, I'll just change the episode where this plotline happens (Example: though I'm removing Sole crusher, I'm not removing Zoe as a character- I'm just putting her introduction somewhere else) to other episode.

And 2- Originally, I wanted to remove as many episodes as I could so I wouldn't have to work with episodes that I considered to be "filler", that didn't have many events that progressed the narrative or the character growth. But, at this point, I've written so many stuff (and specially stuff that deviates from canon) that I honestly need to have episodes to include theses plots LOL, so I'll probably use some basic stuff of the episodes I was planning to remove (like some akumatized villains) to add these plots (and the AU is probably gonna be way bigger than I originally wanted to, lol).

Anyways, in summary, removing an episode does not mean removing a storyline (and vice versa). For every episode I want to remove, I have a list with the plots I want to keep and things that could give me new ideas (even from medias that mostly don't affect canon like the special episodes, even the PS5 game has stuff that I want to either keep or adapt lmao).

So, although those are the episodes I plan to remove at the moment, I think asking if I'm going to keep or remove a specific storyline would give a more precise answer in general.

2000's and Beyond: Modern Fic

In this iteration of Fic History, we’re going to be exploring the fic culture in mega-fandoms from the early 2000’s and beyond. That’s a big field to cover, I know, so each section is probably going to be a bit less detailed than usual in order to make things easier to digest. To begin, we’re starting with:

Harry Potter

I think it goes without saying that the HP fandom is probably the fandom of the 21st century. No book series has become so ubiquitous as HP, and there are still more HP fics on FF.net than from any other fandom. Since HP was published when the internet already existed, most of the fandom’s fics were published online, although a few printed fanzines were created. HP fic is also extremely varied, most likely due to the wide cast of characters and length of time covered by canon lore. You could find fic on anything from coffee shop AUs of the Hogwarts founders to explorations of the main trio’s children when they eventually attended Hogwarts. Like most fandoms with a large internet presence, the HP fandom had its own fic sites, some of which were dedicated to specific attributes like certain ships or tropes, but fic was also posted en masse to multifandom archives like FF.net and AO3. In fact, as of 2017, there are still more Harry Potter fanworks on FF.net than any other fandom.

Twilight

If HP is the fandom of the century, Twilight is probably the fandom of the 2000’s decade. At least in the media, Twifans were portrayed as either feral teenage girls or feral middle-age women, but the fandom is actually much more diverse. In terms of fanfiction, it goes without saying that the most famous fic within the fandom is probably Master of the Universe by Snowqueens Icedragon, more commonly known by its profic title of Fifty Shades of Grey. Snowqueens Icedragon, A.K.A. E.L. James, filed the serial numbers off of her fic and sold it as an original piece of fiction to massive critical attention and success. You can read a bit more about Fifty Shades here.

One Direction

This is the odd fandom out of the bunch, as it’s the only one listed that’s completely focused on real person fic, or RPF. According to FanLore, since there isn’t traditional source material to function as a canon to write fic about, canon in the 1D sense consists of “One Direction's members' original appearance on the reality show, plus their concerts, albums, music videos, video diaries, interviews, books, photo shoots, award ceremonies, other television appearances, band members' and families' personal twitter accounts, media gossip, authorized candid photos and selfies, and unauthorized candid photos by paparazzi and fans.”

RPF already has a bad reputation in fandom spaces, but since 1D is an engineered boy band adored mainly by teenage girls (fandom’s least favorite demographic), the 1D fandom reputation is in the pits (Jamison 2013). Despite this, the fandom is still quite large, and produces a lot of fic, especially on Wattpad, where the fanfic series turned profic After by Anna Todd was published from 2013 to 2014. The most popular ship amongst directioners is Larry Stylinson, or Harry/Louis.

Finally, we have

SuperWhoLock

Behind HP, this is probably the largest fandom on the list, simply because it’s actually three fandoms smushed together: Supernatural, Doctor Who, and BBC’s Sherlock. Fans in this fandom are called SuperWhoLockians. This fandom was especially active on Tumblr in the early 2010’s, and while the main form of fanwork was gifsets, lots of fanfic was produced in each fandom individually as well in crossovers. The most popular Supernatural ships were Castiel/Dean (Destiel) and Wincest (Sam/Dean, who are brothers, hence the portmanteau between Winchester and incest), while Sherlock’s most popular was Sherlock/Watson or Johnlock. Doctor Who is different, as each individual reincarnation of the Doctor is considered a different character, so each Doctor has different pairings, usually with their respective companions or the Master. SuperWhoLock has a reputation for being cringy due to member’s repeated hijacking of Tumblr posts with fandom related GIFs, but now that the fandom is much less active, the cringe has turned into a feeling of nostalgia.

There are so many more fandoms I could talk about, which just goes to show how fandom spaces have only exploded in size as time has passed. Even though these descriptions aren’t the most detailed, I hope you found them informative and interesting!

Happy reading,

-KP

Note

Thanks for answering my old question. Glad it clarify my confusion.

Speaking of which, how did any of the alternate Aki's are made or active. Like are they specifically designed from the robot masters that adopt them to look like their respective robot master

Dr. Light created Aki but something happen that caused them to be separated and forgot Aki original family like Daini did. And they got found by a robot master and rename or start to look like the robot master they live with.

Sorry for long ask

Good question! I’ve actually been waiting for someone to ask something like this, as the answer is pretty interesting and something I’ve spent a lot of time developing.

See, the basic setup behind each of the Alternate Akis’ AUs is that Sgt. Night succeeded in stealing both Aki and Daini but lost Aki along the way, with one of the Robot Masters stumbling upon him and deciding to take him in and raise him as their own. The only exceptions to this are the Ice Man Aki, who was instead found by Ice Man’s guardian/s and raised as his brother (since I see Ice Man as being a child or at least in his early teens) and the Wood Man and Skull Man Akis, whose origins deviate wildly from the standard format.

Given how Canon!Daini’s armored form seen in the show’s flashbacks looks pretty different compared to how it is currently and how it looks in the comic’s flashbacks, I’ve always assumed that it’s relatively easy for a robot to undergo cosmetic changes depending on what they or their creator want them to look like (similar to how humans get haircuts, piercings, or tattoos but to a more extreme extent), either by getting a qualified professional to do it or doing it themselves. Seeing as most of the Robot Masters look vastly different from Canon!Aki, I’d imagine that they’d try to make their adopted child look a bit more like them aesthetic-wise before properly activating them to avoid making them feel too alienated and/or make them uniquely theirs. Brooke is a special case as she didn’t feel comfortable in her body even after Wave Man altered it to look more similar to him, resulting in her asking her dad if she could switch to a more feminine body and voice box. Wave Man, being the sweetheart he is, happily obliged as he valued his daughter’s happiness above all else. (This is also the case for another Alternate Aki, but I’m going to hold off on revealing which one it is until later).

Additionally, the Robot Masters also decided to alter their respective adopted child’s systems to better suit their lifestyles and functions. Canon!Aki lives amongst regular humans, so of course he’s going to have the proper modifications needed to be as human-like as possible and his default Mega Mode will be the most basic. Canon!Daini was stolen from Light specifically to further aid Sgt. Night’s cause, so of course he’s going to be modified to be the perfect soldier, and his Mega Mode will be heavily weaponized. So it would make logical sense for the Robot Masters to do the same, just to a greater extent. Fire Man would need a child who can properly withstand the heat, Wave Man would need a child who can swim and assist him with cleaning duties, Air Man and Blasto Woman would need a child to be able to take to the skies with them, Guts Man would need a child whose strength matches his and who can properly eat normally inedible things, the list goes on and on. Even Robot Masters with more mundane purposes I could see making mild modifications to their kids like Chemistry Man modifying his to be able to properly withstand and handle various chemicals and Cut Man modifying his to assist with gardening and potentially various other household chores. This would also naturally affect their Mega Modes and the effect different schematics would have on them, especially since they don’t have a Mega Mini as I headcanon that Dr. Light created him as a safeguard against potential thefts after Daini was stolen from him. So Ember wouldn’t get anger issues from using the Fire Man Schematic, the Elec Man Aki wouldn’t get hyperactive from using the Elec Man Schematic, the Guts Man Aki wouldn’t get an insatiable appetite or grow in size after eating from using the Guts Man schematic (although due to his altered systems, he’d naturally be much taller and sturdier than the other Akis), and so on and so forth.

(Plus I felt like it would be boring if I just made everyone look exactly like Aki just with different clothes and hairstyles and I wanted to make them all stand out from one another in both appearance and personality.)

#ooc #mega man #megaman #rockman #mega man fully charged #mmfc #megaman fully charged #fully charged #alternate akis #askthealternateakis #robot masters #I have SO much headcanon lore for MMFC it's insane #the canon material gives me literal breadcrumbs of lore and I essentially spin it into “Futurama meets Robots (2005) meets Transformers”#feel free to ask me more about it I'm more than happy to answer

Updated list of projects

A couple weeks or so ago I posted a list of fan projects I want to post about on here, but it was incomplete, so I’m gonna finish it now in a more official-looking format. Keep in mind that I will likely never be able to make some of these, especially the ones intended to be shows, considering I have a few projects that are more important to me that I’d prefer to focus on. But anyway, continue reading for the list! I hope one or more of these spark your interest. (For the projects I’ve already started posting about I might restart posts about those from the beginning to make them more polished btw)

-Mega Man: Reprogrammed, a Mega Man AU comic/show that originated as me redesigning Robot Masters and grew into a full AU

-A Godzilla AU show featuring various kaiju and humans from across the franchise and a universe that actually makes sense

-A Spider-Man AU project of some kind, I don’t really have much in mind for it but I need to build a world for my spidersona

-A Binding of Isaac AU comic, which is basically just me being like “hey what if these guys all lived together in this complex labyrinth instead of just being figments of a dying 5-year-old’s imagination (though they still might be that too)

-Nuclear Throne: Wasteland Wars, a Nuclear Throne AU comic with a concrete story and lots of goofy character interactions (and Tall Bandit…)

-Meta Knight and Dedede: Star Warriors, a Kirby prequel (haven’t decided between game, comic, and show) about Meta Knight and King Dedede’s adventures before Kirby showed up in Dream Land

-A Mario prequel (once again, haven’t decided what to make it) about the battles between Princess Peach’s father King Toadstool and Bowser’s father Morton Koopa (as well as other events in the Mushroom Kingdom’s past)

-A FNaF AU show that aims to, unlike the original games, tell a comprehensible and well-thought-out story (no offense to the original story but it is anything but those two things)

I hope people are interested in these ideas, and if I ever get good enough at art to draw for them or get a job so I can commission artists, I may even be able to provide art to accompany them! I might also do some asks for the characters once it’s been long enough that people care about them.

1, 3, 12, 13, 15, 19, 23, 24, 25, 27! Or I’d say any 5 from this list that you want lol because this is a lot

Oh boy [cracks knuckles]

1: favorite fic you wrote this year

Definitely the Christmas fic! I just enjoy the fluff so much and I worked really hard on it.

3: favorite line/scene you wrote this year

I answered this one with the ao3 wrapped asks forever ago but I’ll say it again! I like the imagery in this scene and this is where I think my descriptive writing and sense of metaphors really fell into place, from bad idea!

The girl in front of Robin moved back and forth, alcohol strong on her breath. She laughed as Robin spun her and pulled her close, her breath hot on the stranger’s ear. She made pointed eye contact across the bar, watching as Nancy was illuminated in soft pink. It matched the shade of her lips—the blush Robin wanted to put on her cheeks.

Blue light shone down on Robin and the stranger, gleaming in the former’s stormy eyes as they met with Nancy’s ocean.

Waves crashed and lightning struck, filling the room with unbearable electricity. The lights met and flared in an intense clash of violet sky, and Robin knew she was doomed to be lost at sea. Her heart was racing with exertion and excitement, drawn against her will to the other girl—the girl who wanted to kill her. The girl who was probably planning her demise at this very moment. The thought was exhilarating.

12: favorite character to write about this year

Nancy Wheeler my beloved <33 She’s just such a complex, malleable character. I love writing her personality and trying to figure out how she would respond in certain scenarios—and since the Duffers won’t let her explore her trauma, I will!! Also as an eldest daughter burnt out gifted kid… She’s very projection shaped

13: favorite writing song/album/artist of this year

Stick Season by Noah Kahan for sure! I still would really, really like to write a string of one shots for each song, but especially Growing Sideways, Northern Attitude, and The View Between Villages. I love his music and his voice and I think it’s very easy to ronancify this album lol

15: something you learned this year

Oh this one is fun. Imma be cheesy about it. I learned to stop letting what other people think of me get in the way of having fun. I was so against ever writing fic because “I don’t want to be cringe and get made fun of.” Fuck that. I am cringe and it’s FUN. I will own it with pride. I like my silly little self indulgent fics.

19: any new fics to start next year

Oh god so many. I’m not kidding when I say I’m past 30 on the WIP/idea list. I’ll toss some favorites tho:

say you’re gonna come back: one shot based on Sports Car by Valley, Ronance reunite and fall in love all over again years down the road

there in the garden, she looked my way: beauty and the beast au multi chapter featuring vampire Nancy and just so much pining

she will pull the trigger: monster hunter Nance and werewolf Rob and they’re both GNC ft toxic lesbianism because wanting to kill each other is sexy

23: fics you wanted to write but didn’t

I’m still thinking so hard about run, devil, run, which was a Wild West au featuring werewolf Nance and vampire Rob but I don’t think that one will stick. I go through a circle of phases of really stubborn hyperfixations and the wild west pops up as one of them but never stays for long. Was feeling it for a week, wrote one scene, then sort of dropped it to lowest priority

24: favorite fic you read this year

Oh god there are so many. I refuse to pick just one, but I’ll stick with 3 I think.

One of them (surprise) is you! a never ending story changed my brain chemistry. dungeon master rules lawyer repressed furious mega nerd comphet religious guilt traumatized Nancy my beloved!!!! Not saying I’d get a tattoo based off a fic but I am saying a d20 on 13 would be so cool… (also special shout out to DITM, I love that one dearly too, especially Martha) I also ADORE when you can tell a writer is into poetry and it shows in their word. Flowery prose and heart shattering metaphors my beloved

I have sung praises about this fic and I’ll fucking do it again. Bloodletting my beloved. I am once again in awe of the way @lavenderlevetan weaves the story and connects all the pieces. I love the dynamic and the way the tension builds. I am feral about vampires and biting, sue me.

And I have to say put me in the movies (on a king sized silver screen) by @sapphicriley is also one of my all time favorites. I love the back and forth banter and it’s sweet and fluffy and it’s just a feel good fic and I like to reread it when I’m feeling down. Another example of poetic writing as well <33

25: a fic you read this year that you would recommend everyone read

Well all of the one from above ofc. Also dancing in the moonlight. Also,,, Raise Dead by @eskawrites killed me and healed me. If you can handle the angst, this one is an incredible read and I cannot recommend it enough. I don’t really cry when reading, but this one actually had me in tears in the best way.

27: favorite fanfic author of the year

This is like asking me to pick a favorite child. God. I’m terms of writing, I have to say it’s between a few, but there’s this one rando who wrote this D&D fic and also one about monster fucking. You might have heard of her? I think her name is summersociety or something.

I also adore @lavenderlevetan (I will continue to scream about Bloodletting forever!!!) and you guys are in for a treat with some of the WIP sneak peeks I’ve gotten from @suwunnysideup

And I have to say every single one of my mutuals are just such incredible, talented writers, and such amazing friends. I love you all. 🥺

in your future au what are the robot masters like cutman doing are Thay still evil

Currently don’t have time to draw any of this stuff rn! But here’s a list of what the Robot Masters are up to in the Future AU, it’s a lot of stuff tbh so I’m putting it down the cut below

Some stuff may change but this is what I have currently (also I like to think that maybe some of them still hang out together, besties for life y’know)

Fire Man : Moved away from Silicon City to try and get a new start on life, he’s gone back to working at construction and he visits sometimes but usually to see how Mega Man is doing

Drill Man : Moved away from Silicon City, he’s doing okay and I like to think that maybe he’s getting his drill hands removed! He moved away becuz he wanted to get away from the past and his dad (he doesn’t talk to his dad anymore btw)

Hypno Woman : I noticed that after the events of the detective episode Hypno Woman never showed up again, this kinda led me to believe that she left the city so we’re going with that here. She’s almost always posing as Mari now (aka that fake identity she used when she went on a date with Dr. Light), thankfully she and Dr. Light still keep in touch via phone calls and text messages

Wave Man : Gone back to cleaning the sewers, he also has an alligator plushie! He offered to clean up the streets of the city but he was denied due to all of those past times he almost flooded the entire city

Ice Man : He’s working for the Good Guild now! He helps put out fires with them and he’s loving every second of it, unfortunately he still kinda takes stuff seriously from time to time but it wasn’t caused anything dangerous to happen so everything’s okay :thumbsup:

Blasto Woman : Blasto Woman got married to Mini and moved in with the Light family, she has a job (I haven’t figured out what it is yet) and takes good care of her kids

Air Man : I was thinkin maybe he does air shows now (but y’know without a plane), so he’s kind of a celebrity now! Air Man’s still got that giant ego though and the ego has probably gotten bigger over the years, he’s also somewhat distanced himself from his family

Chemistry Man : He wasn’t able to get a job as a teacher at Silicon Central again, but I was thinkin about he got a job at a college outside of the city! In his backstory he mentioned he loved being a teacher so I can’t imagine him wanting to do anything else

Guts Man : Guts Man works as a garbage man, although we all know he just eats the trash (but he’s okay with that since he’s been seen to happily eat trash in the show) he likes his job since he gets to eat all day

Elec Man : Still hyperactive and chaotic as ever! I was thinkin maybe he has a new job involving electricity almost every 2 weeks, he can handle the large amount of work though don’t worry! (Remember : this is Elec Man we’re talking about, with all of the energy he has he’s not gonna get tired anytime soon)

Wood Man : He’s still living in the woods, but he’s okay with that since that’s what he’s most comfortable with!

Cut Man : Went back to being a barber and maybe gardening as well, probably got his perfectionist problem fixed up a bit too so he doesn’t end up attacking anyone again

Parallel Satellite Incident Notes: A Portfolio for Muses

A master post for tags, muse profiles, and other lore writing

Entry 0.5

Suffice to say, jumping through boundaries twice into a parallel universe where the town we thought was nonexistent not even an hour ago yet being clear as day was enough to baffle us. It was just us two university students here, the only members of the Hifuu Club. And yet, the fact that we managed to clear the jump with help from two boundary-related abilities already denies several quantum theories proposed by leading scientists in both Japan and the United States. We had now entered a second paradise. Similar in expanse to the first, but not a satellite of any kind, nor bathed in a scarlet hue. Instead, it was firmly on Earth. One could even suggest the aforementioned mega-crater did not exist here. But first, we need to get out of this forest thicket. It was a hard landing. We landed in some tree branches.

It's pretty well known by now that Fifty Shades of Grey began its life as a Twilight fanfiction called Master of the Universe, a BDSM / No-Vampires AU by Snowqueens Icedragon published between 2009 and 2011 (although its eventual publisher would go on to claim that Fifty Shades was an entirely original novel inspired by MOTU, it's at this point a matter of public record that they are the same work with only superficial alterations.)

Snowqueens Icedragon (the username of Erika Mitchell AKA EL James) was among the biggest of the big name Twilight authors. Although she has managed to scrub most of her fandom presence from the internet, plenty of traces remain.

Because Master of the Universe was removed from fanfiction.net, it's difficult to say exactly how popular it was. I've seen quotes that it had anywhere between twenty and sixty thousand reviews at the time of its removal (though the twenty thousand figure seems to be more commonly cited.) I have heard mention that the fanfiction was popular enough that Stephanie Meyer knew about it, but unfortunately the pages that could have substantiated that claim have been lost to time so I cannot confirm this rumour. (x) According to one account, Snowqueens Icedragon generated over $30 000 auctioning off a story at the charity auction mentioned above. (x)

How did she get that popular? Well, by writing a story as fast as possible and chasing a popular trend, of course! (see, I told you that would come back)

Fifty Shades was part of this. A lot of people here are saying it's ripping off Secretary, but it's not. It's ripping off another really popular Twilight [All Human]-AU called "The Submissive", written by TaraSueMe. [The Submissive] was the first very popular BDSM Twilight fic [...] Whenever a fic reached mega-popularity, there always began a brief spike of fics using those tropes. For instance, there was once a really popular fic about Edward being a tattoo artist (Clipped Wings & Inked Armor), which spawned all kinds of fics about Edward and Bella having tattoos. There were even contests with prizes to see who wrote the best tattoo fic. So basically, The Submissive spawned off tons of BDSM fic. Fifty Shades was one of them. (x)

Fifty Shades of Grey is famously quite a bad novel, and I can personally attest that it lives up to its reputation. It's structureless, frequently contradicts itself, and contains egregious errors of what I can only describe as storytelling logic. It's also clear that it was written very fast.

The way the story handles BDSM and kink reveals a complete lack of knowledge of or interest in either. This makes sense when you consider that the choice of subject matter was purely trend-driven. BDSM fics were currently popular, and she wanted to be popular. The result is a book composed entirely of marketing tactics; a book that is performance to its core.

FSOG got a shitload of [attention]. Ask me how! Well, the short of it: Erika is a marketing professional. The long of it: - Erika made [fics] of already-proven-popular content - Erika posted short updates to the story very frequently, keeping it at the top of the story search list - Since people could give [reviews] for every single chapter/update, the more chapters a story had, the more [reviews] it had FSOG had 80 (edit: was actually 110) chapters. That means that a lot of people actually reviewed that fucking thing EIGHTY times. So even if she had only 100 super loyal readers, that's 8,000 11,000 reviews [...] People see a story with 8,000 reviews and want to click it to see what all the fuss is about. I think it had something like 20,000 reviews when it was pulled down for publishing. Hence, FSOG went viral. (x)

You may by now be sensing the ways in which this model played out in the self-publishing industry, but first I need to talk a little more about fandom and publishing.

At the height of its popularity, Erika Mitchell took down Master of the Universe in preparation for publication of the story through a small press, after editing it to remove explicit references to Twilight and retitling it Fifty Shades of Grey. We all know what happened after that.

This is a practice known as pulling-to-publish, and although Fifty Shades is the most famous example of it, it's far from the only one. What I want to trace for you is the ways the cutthroat dynamics of the Twilight fandom played out in small scale what would become the future of the self-publishing industry.

People have created this entire genre of OOC fics that are not at all in the Twilight universe--basically, romance novels. This genre has led to three epublishing micropresses to spring up for the purpose of republishing these fanworks with the names and locations changed. (Each of these presses is owned and operated by people from the fandom, with the biggest coming from our biggest archive.) So what we've created in our neck of the woods are people using their fanwork to gain a huge audience, then removing the fanwork, filing it, publishing it, and sending cease and desist letters if the fanwork is shared. (The published works are then marketed back to the fandom via author profiles and banner ads on the archives.) (x)

A couple of examples include Beautiful Bastard, originally published as a Twilight fanfiction called The Office, and Gabriel's Inferno, originally published as The University of Edward Mason. Both were among the most popular stories in the fandom, and both ended up being optioned for movie rights (of the two, only Gabriel's Inferno ended up being filmed.)

There are a few reasons not to just celebrate this as an unmitigated win for fandom. Leaving aside anything to do with copyright and fanfiction (which is, again, outside the scope of this post), it was common practice for fanfiction to be beta read by volunteers, who would have donated free labour on the assumption that this was a communal effort and the resulting work would have remained free forever. (x) On top of that, there are at least rumours that this group of former Twilight authors could get quite litigious towards any fans who wanted to read the original fanfiction (note the reference to cease and desist letters in the quote above).

In those days, legal threats against fanfiction by authors like Anne Rice were still fresh in fandom memory, and the practice of pulling-to-publish was seen as "betraying or ignoring what, for many in the community, is the first code of trust between a fan writer and the copyright holder: 'I own nothing'." (x)

I've seen a lot of discussion about whether knocking off tropes and ideas from other fanfiction and then publishing the result for money constitutes plagiarism. (For my two cents, while the behaviour happening here was a betrayal of the community spirit, as far as I can tell none of it rose above the level of how all fiction inspires other fiction, no matter how calculated it was.)

However, I suspect this phenomenon is part of the reason why fandom culture has become so much more suspicious and hostile over the last decade. Given the practice of using the tactics I discussed before to rise through the ranks of the fandom and get millions of hits, which could then be leveraged into a lucrative publishing career, the feeling from the fandom was generally one of having been used.

Erika never looked back. She actually has blocked every single person I still know from fandom on her twitter account. She used the community to get her book (most ideas created by the community itself) to #1 then essentially shut the door on them all. (x)

This attitude is backed up by archived quotes from a chatlog between Erika Mitchell and one of her fellow fans about the publication of Fifty Shades (ellipses original to the quotes):

Erika Mitchell: it’s like the old groucho marx joke which I cant remember about not wanting to belong to a club that you’re a member of… I have to say I do not feel as passionately as you do about the fandom (x)

I have done it as a sort of exercise … to see if I could … and I think I have proven to myself that I can … I now want to capitalize on it... (x)

If you want to read some really good first-hand fanwank about what happened in the Twilight fandom, I highly recommend clicking this link.

Now I don't believe this applies to fanworks-turned-published-novels as a whole or pulling-and-publishing in all contexts, of which there are many wonderful examples, and which is often undertaken with a great deal of respect and care. Nor is it a bad thing to have a little bit of marketing savvy or to factor that into your writing choices. The problem is mainly one of degree.

I want to make more explicit a few of the links I've already drawn. The model of churning out extremely frequent updates on low effort stories capitalizing on popular trends bears an uncanny resemblance to the model that Amazon self-publishing is built around.

It's difficult to overstate the impact of Fifty Shades of Grey. It was in some ways the single event that inaugurated self-publishing as an industry:

To date, the series has sold more than 70 million units worldwide, becoming the fastest-selling paperback of all time (Meeks, 2013). It is the biggest publishing success story since 2005, when the dream-inspired Twilight series propelled Stephenie Meyer to become a New York Times bestselling author almost overnight. (x)

If you need proof of how influential Fifty Shades remains, right now, in February of 2024, more than a decade after Fifty Shades' publication, the #2 self published novel on all of Amazon is a billionaire romance.

It was a seismic event in traditional publishing as well:

The runaway success of Fifty Shades had forced the entire publishing industry to re-evaluate assumptions of what makes books sell. “For years, centuries even, the publishing industry and literary world’s definition of good was the only one that mattered. If we didn’t think something was good, it didn’t get agented, it didn’t get published, bookshops didn’t stock it and it didn’t sell,” he said. “For us, good is often linked to literary style, what we consider the quality of writing and so on. What Fifty Shades – and more widely the whole self-publishing phenomenon of the last four or five years – has proved is that readers can have a completely different definition of good.” (x)

But this is a slight of hand - it isn't about what's good, it's about who can play the game best. The oral fandom history of Fifty Shades' does not paint a picture of a book that simply resonated with people. It instead paints a fanfiction written essentially as a popularity-bid, calculated to capitalize on trends and exploit the architecture of fanfiction.net. Then, once that fanfiction had amassed a gargantuan following, that following was rallied to drive the published version up the Amazon rankings.

She [...] leveraged the community's sense of nostalgia and loyalty, urging everyone to buy the book and give it good ratings, so as to see 'one of their own succeed in the publishing world'. There were multiple campaigns from her friends (tens of thousands of what she only saw herself as 'fans') to blast her Amazon page and send the book up the ranks. It of course worked. Once a (genre fiction) book gets to #1 on Amazon's bestseller list, you're done. Mission accomplished. Book and movie deals to follow. Enjoy your money. (x)

The strategy of rallying a fanbase is, again, not inherently bad by any means, but the particularly mercenary way in which Erika Mitchell and her contemporaries used the fandom for personal gain was received as a violation of trust on such a scale that it fractured the community as a whole:

The CULTURE has become that fanwork is not created for any sort of archival purpose. Most popular fanfics in our fandom are removed from the internet within a few months of finishing. This has meant that readers save the fics as their default, and that they don't read stories in-progress because they're afraid they will be taken down. [...] Plus, anyone who takes her fics down for personal reasons ends up publicly crucified, which, IMO is a direct result of those who've removed their stories in order to sell them back to the fandom. No one trusts anyone to be telling the truth any longer. (x)

You can track the breakup of the fandom through the decline of the charity auction: From raising almost $150 000 in 2010, in 2011 it barely raised over $20 000, then subsequently ended permanently. (x)

Today the biggest player in self publishing is Amazon's Kindle Unlimited program, where people pay $10 a month to have unlimited access to all titles that have opted into the program.

On the authors' side, the way Kindle Unlimited works is that by opting in, you are agreeing to a 90 day exclusivity deal with Amazon (meaning that you won't release your novel on any other storefronts for at least 90 days), and you will be paid by number of pages read (the pay-rate is calculated by mysterious means by Amazon.)

For readers, Kindle Unlimited turns reading novels into an essentially similar experience to that of browsing AO3 or fanfiction.net; you scroll an unlimited buffet of "free" stories and can pick out whatever hits the tropes you like.

Through a combination of Amazon's algorithms, the voraciousness of the reading community, the culture among authors, and the various economic pressures affecting them, the same dynamic persists: release as often as possible + try to copy what's hot right now.

The golden rule is to release a novel a month, a pace that makes it impossible to put any care or craft into your books, or frankly to do anything more than the absolute bare minimum of putting words in an order that gestures towards the right tropes. Kindle Unlimited books as a whole tend toward hastily written, barely-edited slop, written to incorporate the topic of the month. The authors who write novels with attention and craft are swimming against a powerful current.

But this state of affairs is on shaky ground, with payout on a downward trend and the pressure of AI pushing the already impossible speed of the churn to the brink.

(x)

This isn't trendy drinkware we're talking about, it's books. A single good novel can feed a person for a lifetime. I have a great fondness for vintage pulp and trashy fiction, but what's happened in self-publishing right now is on a level far beyond what the pulp writers of yesteryear could possibly have imagined.

Looked at from another perspective, this is equally a story about how the incentives of capitalism tore apart a community. This schism happened along the same timeline as the transition to the social media age, and can be taken almost as a microcosm of what the increasingly predatory economics of the internet did to social life online.

And that's where both readers and authors should be looking: towards mending those community ties, however we can. Maybe that means giving up useless number-chasing if communities can't survive past a certain scale. We could choose to focus on the slow work of developing relationships and trust, creating smaller but more sustainable groups of people who can support one another. Even now, within the hostile infrastructure of the modern internet, I think these things are still just barely possible.

Anyway, that's why you should read my book instead.

Alright, so: I want to explain a little more about this connection between the Twilight fandom, Fifty Shades of Grey, and seemingly, the self-publishing industry as a whole. It's a lot, so I'm going to have to chip away at it a bit at a time, and I think the best place to start is by describing the scene in late 2000s Twilight fandom.

In 2009, Twilight was one of the biggest fandoms in the world, although it was nearly invisible to outsiders because it

Was about a straight couple, while most other fandoms were predominantly gay, and

Was conducted almost entirely on fanfiction.net among a group of people who had little other background in fandom. (x)

That meant for many Twilight fans, Twilight was fandom. It was all they knew, and many had no path out. That also made it a corked champagne bottle with the pressure building.

Because of these community dynamics and the declining quality of the Twilight books themselves, Twilight fanfiction evolved to be mostly AUs so alternate they were more-or-less original romance novels that used Bella and Edward as broad character templates. (x)

Seriously, Twilight fandom got really crazy big for a few years there. It was not totally uncommon to get multi-million clicks on a semi-popular story. It's weird looking back on it and calling it "Twilight fandom" because it was really more like "Romance Novel fandom". For real, for a period there, calling a Twilight fanfic author a 'Twilight fan' would be the ultimate insult. But they never stopped writing about Edward and Bella! It's so weird. (x)

If you were in 2000s era fandom, you're probably aware of the phenomenon of Big Name Fans and the various social-climbing dynamics that happened around them. The Twilight fandom took this social power game another level:

This wasn't even just an author thing. There were Big Name Authors (BNAs) but there were also Big Name Readers. These were basically like... full-time rabid fans of a BNA. They devoted so much of their time to helping out the BNAs, reviewing their chapters, making them fanart, promoting their fics, kissing their asses with cringe-worthy intensity, you name it. Which is why you saw what looked like BNAs having 'employees', such as Moi, tby789's Director of Marketing. (x)

It became apparent that these power games weren't just for fandom clout. The fandom was proving that that social power could be translated into real-world dollars. You see, the Twilight fandom used to organize charity auctions where big name authors would auction off custom fanfiction, and the money generated was substantial:

Mostly authors would auction off stories. So if you donated in my name, I'd write you 10,000 words of porn in my Tattward universe, or something new, etc. That's how it worked. The 2009 auction raised $80,000. The 2010 auction raised $140,000. The 2011 auction raised $20,00. [NOTE: this is likely a typo] (x)

A lot of these dynamics were not unique to the Twilight fandom, but it was the combination that created a perfect storm of opportunism. This would end up changing not just fandom dynamics but the publishing industry as a whole.

Broken Glasses and Cottontails

Glamrock Bonnie x Gen Reader

A/N: Based on my Were AU!

Did I start a brand new story because I was in desperate need of some Bonnie love? Pff no...

Main Master List

⚠️ mentions of alcohol, non-con touch, self depreciation

You sighed as you stared up at the massive sign that marked the entrance to your new job, Fazbear's Mega Pizza Plex. You had just moved back to your hometown after losing the job you had worked hard at in another city to get away from this wretched town you hated. And yet, here you were, ready to start at what used to be a place of childhood wonder for you as a lowly bar hop.

As you walked through the entrance to clock-in for your first shirt, you let out yet another sigh at your predicament. You had already passed the interview and were issued a uniform and locker a few days before. As you trudged past the front desk, you flashed your badge to certify that you were a new employee before heading to the lockrooms to change.

A short time later, you were dressed in a simple outfit of black slacks, black button up shirt with Bonnie's Bowl logo on the back, and a deep purple server's apron. You clocked in before you headed to the bar hidden deep within the megaplex. Apparently Bonnie's Bowl and Bar 'n Lounge had been built just a few years before, after Bonnie, the lead bass, retired from the original band to allow Monty Gator and Roxanne Wolf take his place.

It had come as a shock for you, to hear your favorite of the werecreature band had retired, but then Bonnie had been an original member from the previous pizzeria. You dodged past weres and humans alike that swarmed the megaplex, not quite eager to start your new job, but also not exactly caring to be touched by anyone. A sensation that had long since come to disgust you, why you weren't sure, but it was something you learned to live around.

Finally you managed to make it into the Bonnie's Bowl and with the map of the megaplex memorized already, you took a turn at the entrance to find the unmarked hallway to the bar. Inside the bar tables and chairs scattered about the main open area, booths along the far wall and an adjacent wall, with the bar along the opposing wall. Robots, similar to the map bot that had scared you a few days prior on your tour, were stationed at the bar ready to make drinks. A minimal cheezy dark eighties aesthetic dripped from the walls to the carpeted floor with neon signs scattered about.

You looked around, noticing no one was in the bar yet, nor was the massive purple wererabbit you remembered from shows, posters, and the old plush you kept, no matter how many times you tried to toss it out. With a deep sigh, you forced your feet to drag you further in, looking about as you went. The bar was immaculate, and you had seen enough bars to know that couldn't be an easy feat. But still no Bonnie, your boss and trainer, to be found.

Further into the bar, you noticed what appeared to be a hidden hallway behind the bar. You ducked your head around the corner to look down the hallway to find a door marked office and another private. You hesitated, thinking you should try the bowling alley in search of your boss.

As you straightened up and turned around, you ran right into something, or someone, quite dense. Large warm hands latched onto your shoulders like a parasite, sending shivers down your spine. You forced your legs to move and catch your balance before you stepped away to find Bonnie in front of you.

Your heart dropped in your chest as you noticed how overbearing Bonnie's presence and size was. And he was dressed much differently than the band outfit you remembered, a burgundy button up shirt and black slacks, all his paint, accessories and piercings missing. You noticed a slight slip in Bonnie's grin as he pulled his hands back.

"You must be Y/N right? Mandy mentioned she hired a new bar hop." Bonnie's voice was the different that you remembered, sultry even.

"Uh, yeah I am. I was looking for you." You kept your tone even despite the disgust that ran through your veins at being touched.

"Sorry to give you a jump scare like that, cottontail." Bonnie's grin warmed back up. "Ready to get started?"

"Yeah, I am." You faked a smile as you followed Bonnie, forcing the bile in your throat down.

He gave you a quick run down of procedures and what needed to be done. It wasn't your first time as a server so most of it wasn't new for you. One thing you had noticed was that Bonnie didn't touch you once, even though he came close before it seemed like he caught himself. It was something odd yet endearing to you, that it seemed he was making attempts to hold himself back without questioning why. A few minutes after Bonnie set you up on the ordering system, a few customers came into start you on your first day.

A few hours later, you were released for a much needed break from too many close encounters with guests. But what you hadn't realized was that Bonnie had kept a close eye on you, intervening when a guest got to close to getting handsy. You had figured it to just be normal as he did integrate himself with what appeared to be quite a few regulars, or employees that came in after their end of shift.

Not sure of where else to go, you headed for the employee breakroom and sank down into a chair, aching feet taking a moments reprieve. With not much to do, you pull your phone out to play a game when a large hand settled on your shoulder. Your skin crawls as you jump up and away, knocking the chair you sat in over.

"Little cub? Are you alright?" Freddy, a massive golden brown furred werebear and the lead singer and owner of the megaplex looked down at you worried.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine." You flinch from the automatic fake reply as the look of worry only deepened in the bear's blue eyes.

Freddy's hand dropped to his side before you reach out to straighten the fallen chair, bile rising in your throat from the sudden contact.

"I didn't mean to startle you, little cub, I just came to check up on you. Bonnie can be a lot to handle and wanted to make sure he had not harmed you in any way."

You catch the tone in Freddy's voice, guessing he thought your reaction was caused by your new boss.

"No, I'm alright. Bonnie hasn't been rude to me at all." You force a fake smile with cheeriness in your voice to assure the bear.

"If he ever does, you can come to me or one of the others." Freddy smiled warmly at you, the bear's friendliness shining bright. "We will take care of it if he gets out of line."

You nod in reply before you grab your phone off the table. "I have to go, thank you Freddy."

You quickly duck out of the employee breakroom before the bear could reply and head back the way you came. Technically you still had about ten minutes left of your break and decided to find an empty bench to sit on. Guests mingled and passed by as you sat down with a heavy sigh, the rancid taste of bile still in your mouth.

What had you gotten yourself into? A job where contact with others was inevitable was the best option for you when you couldn't even handle having the friendliest bear you knew touch you. A frown pulled on your mouth as you rebutted yourself, disgusted with your body.

Your phone buzzed in your hand to catch your attention, an alarm signaling the end of your break. Quickly you stood up and made your way back to the bar to finish your shift, hoping you could make it through the day without getting touched again.

Your hope was short lived though as not even an hour after your break, a guest got handsy with you when you cut them off from being served. The rowdy lion grabbed your wrist, yanking your arm up as they leaned down to yell at you, alcohol soaking their breath. The movement forced you to drop your tray, glasses shattering across the carpeted flooring.

"Give me another fucking drink or it'll be your damn throat in my teeth," the lion growled at you.

Before you could reply, or barely even try to tug your wrist from their hold, Bonnie was your side, his hand around the lion's forearm.

"Let go of my cottontail, now." Bonnie's tone dropped low to a near growl of his own.

Despite Bonnie being a rabbit, a prey animal, he loomed over the lion by at least a foot and exuded a rage you only felt from predators. The lion gulped, quickly dropping your wrist as they stepped away and stalked off without another word. Bonnie's gaze glanced down to you, his own arm dropping to his side.

"Are you hurt, cottontail?"

Bile had once again risen in your throat from the contact but you managed to force a nod, desperately trying to swallow the acid down. Bonnie's fuchsia eyes watched you for few more seconds before it seemed he was content with the answer.

"I'll get a rag."

You watch Bonnie step away before you kneel down to pick up your tray and the broken shards of glass. You pile what you can on your tray, a sharp piece leaving behind a small nick on a finger. With a hiss of pain you can move your finger to your mouth, but before it reached a rag covered your hand.

You look up to see Bonnie had knelt down beside you, a slight grimace on the rabbit's muzzle.

"There's a first-aid kit in my office behind the bar." Bonnie spoke quietly to you as he pointed to the hidden hallway. "I'll clean this up."

You open your mouth to reply, to say it's just a simple cut, but Bonnie cuts you off.

"Go, cottontail."

His tone tells you not to deny him, having suddenly forgotten Bonnie was your boss. You nod and stand up to head towards the hidden hallway, dodging past a few other rowdy guests on the way. You step around the corner of the hallway you had looked down earlier in the day to the office door.

Inside was just like any ordinary office, a desk with papers and folders scattered across in a semi-organized manner, a couple file cabinets, a shelf with quite a few bowling trophies and books. Your eyes finally find the first-aid kit you had been looking for and you move to grab it from the wall. As you pull it down, you notice how quiet it was, despite the rambunctious noise that reverberated throughout the bar.

A deep sigh escaped you lips, the bile in your throat easing as you set the kit on the desk to open it. You uninjured hand grabbed a bandaid and ripped it open before you wrap around the cut. Just as you start to close the kit back up, a deep voice breaks the silence of the office.

"You forgot to clean your cut." Bonnie's tone was softer, much gentler, than his previous command.

"I-"

"If you going to say your fine, I don't want to hear it." Bonnie's voice seemingly deepened as he spoke, his eyes sharpening to a glare.

A shiver ran down your spine as the Bonnie walked up to you to lean against the desk, his arms crossed over his chest. "Clean it."

You return his glare as you rip the band-aid off and toss the used one in the trash before you opened the kit back up. Without looking at Bonnie again, you grab an alcohol wipe to clean your cut that had already stopped bleeding. Once again you grab a band-aid to wrap your finger with and ripped it open.

Quietly you throw the trash away and close up the first-aid kit and step away from the desk to hang it back on the wall.

"You're not alright, cottontail." Bonnie's voice breaks the silence, startling you.

You turn to look back at him, a tinge of worry in your eyes. How did he- Had he figured out your issue already?

"Fred came to me after he talked to you on your break." A slight grimace formed on Bonnie's muzzle again. "Is it just weres or people in general that you're unable to be touched by?"

A grimace of your own set on your face as you glance away, shame filling your chest and flushing your cheeks ears. You had hoped no one would notice, much less your boss on your first day.

"Everyone." Your voice comes out near a whisper, once again rebutting yourself.

"Look at me."

You obey Bonnie, your body moving without thought to face the rabbit. He hadn't moved from the desk, but it felt like he loomed over you, teeth bared in snarl to bite through your flesh. A shiver ran down your spine as the sensation eased, leaving you nearly breathless.

"You're telling the truth." The words from Bonnie were a statement without question.

"Yes."

Bonnie watched you with his fuchsia eyes before he stood up from the desk. "Calm down before you leave. And if you ever need to again, you can come in here."

You nod out of habit before you notice Bonnie was already at the door and couldn't see you.

"Thank you." You voice came out at a near whisper, barely audible to even yourself.

Bonnie paused for a split second, an ear twitching to show he caught your words, before he opened the office door and left.

You move to the desk chair and sank into it before your body could start to shake. Your breath came in heavy pants for a couple minutes as your body trembled to a near violent state. Slowly your heart came down from it's frantic state, the sensation of feeling like prey diminishing, as your lungs eased from their desperation for air.

A shiver ran down your spine after your frantic state passed, eyes glancing towards the office door. What had just happened? How had Bonnie already figured out about your disgusting problem with being touched? And the anger that followed when he had spoken of Freddy, it nearly had you shrink back in fear. You took a deep breath to steady yourself before you stood up to finish the rest of your shift.

"Go sit in the office and take a break." Bonnie spoke up low behind you, startling you from the table you were cleaning.

You nod, too exhausted to fight the offer, no order, from your boss. You left the rag on the table and turn away from Bonnie to head down the hallway to the office. Your aching feet and legs take relief after you sank into the office chair, head resting against the back.

The rest of your shift had gone by quick without another incident, only a few close encounters with touch that managed to dodge with your reflexes. You let out a hushed sigh as you rest your elbows on the desk to drop your head into your hands. A slight jiggle had started up in your leg in an attempt to soothe the anxiety and frustration that swirled in your mind but it didn't help any.

You were upset with yourself, for being disgusted by contact with others despite secretly craving to know what it felt like without the reaction your body had. You had tried to force it, withstanding physical touch, over the years only to end up worse than before. And yet here you were, over two decades old and had never had a partner or even real physical affection.

You yank your head up, blinking away a few stray tears that had built up in your eyes, at the sound of the office door opening to find Bonnie in the doorway.

"Cottontail?" Bonnie's tone was soft, no where near the threatening level it had been at before.

"I'm fine." Your voice snapped a little harsher than you had planned for it to.

Bonnie's fuchsia gaze darkened on you for a second before it eased up, seemingly not going to push you any further. You pull your arms down to your lap, nails dug deep into palms as you attempted to still your leg. Silence prevailed for a short moment as you turned your head to look away from Bonnie before you heard the rabbit speak up.

"Stay here." His tone deepened, implying to you that he had given you an order.

You nod out of habit as you watch him close the door to the office on his way out. It seemed to you that he might have heard something, or someone, and left to deal with it. But curiosity got the best of you and you stood from the chair to step over to the door. Voices drifted through the door, muffled but you could still make out a few snippets.

"Did you hurt them?" It was Freddy, and he sounded angry.

"No, I didn't harm my cottontail in anyway." Bonnie's own tone dropped to match the bear's.

"Then did you figure out why-"

"Fred, you're overstepping. How they react to touch is none of your concern, nor mine." Bonnie's tone dropped further, nearly to a menacing level.

"I'm only worried Bonnie! We can't keep replacing your bar hops just because you scare them off."

Scare them off? How would Bonnie scare other employees off? Though you guessed it could be from the overbearing sensation of being prey Bonnie forced upon you earlier. Lost in thought, you had missed the next couple things they had said.

"This is your last chance, Bon. If you scare them off, I'm not going to let Mandy give you another toy to play with." Freddy's growled at Bonnie before heavy steps receded.

You quickly dashed for the chair and sank into it as quietly as you could, heart beating frantically in your chest. You took a deep, quiet breath to steady yourself just a mere moment before the door opened. Bonnie looked upset, whether with Freddy or himself, you weren't sure. You force yourself to stand to head back to the bar but Bonnie's voice stopped you before you could walk.

"Go ahead and take the rest of the night off, cottontail." Bonnie's tone had a hint of pain that caused you to grimace.

You knew you were the reason for the irritated conversation between Bonnie and Freddy, and it upset you. You hadn't meant to cause so much trouble, desperate to run from being the problem, but you couldn't. If you ran away, like you always did, Bonnie would be blamed for it and only hurt him further.

"No, I'll stay to help you finish cleaning." You spoke with a soft smile on your face.

The look Bonnie gave you was a mix of surprise and adoration. "I won't force you to stay, cottontail, if you want to leave, it's your decision."

The way Bonnie had framed his words had you a bit curious but you shoved the though away for now. "Thanks Bonnie."

And you meant it, knowing what would happen to him if you ran away. But this time you wanted to figure out how to stand strong, fight back against your weakness. You followed Bonnie out of the office and back to the bar to finish cleaning before you left for the night.

Bonnie leaned against the bar as he watched you leave, rather curious about you and your reaction to touch. His own words to Freddy came to mind, about not being his business, but you worried him. To willingly come to work in a place full of people, and a bar no less, something had to have driven you to this point even with your inability to handle touch. But what had caused it, and the disgust with yourself, to no longer want or desire the touch of another?

If you stayed again, something that had shocked him when turned down his offer to leave earlier, he wanted to know why and to see if there was a way he could help you. The pain in your eyes had been evident to Bonnie after his conversation with Fred, you had heard enough to know it was about you.

Bonnie sighed and stepped away from the bar to head to his office, he had paperwork that needed to be done. He sat in the chair, a faint whiff of your scent still in the office and it distracted him once more. Had you always been disgusted by touch, or had someone hurt you in such a way that you couldn't stand it anymore in fear of memories arising?

That thought infuriated Bonnie, forcing him shut all thoughts of you away and focus on the book keeping that needed to be done. Ever since his separation from Fred, and his retirement from the band, he had the bar and bowling built for him, with Foxy receiving Pirate Cove as a gift. Bonnie had taken on the paperwork for the extension to the megaplex as part of the agreement, meaning he had several locations to manage along with running his own two.

It wasn't an easy feat, early mornings and long nights were now a daily occurrence for Bonnie, but he managed it. All the excitement from the guests that came through kept him going. And now you had came along because of it, someone who seemed to be able to handle him, for now.

With a heavy sigh, Bonnie dropped the pen in his hand to the desk and smothered his face. He was thinking of you again, something he really couldn't be chasing after or scaring away. Though he hoped that you would stay, it had been a long time since someone like you came into his life and it was refreshing to see you not fear him.

Bonnie stood up from his chair, having given up on any chance of focusing on his paperwork. He left his office, but not before catching one last whiff of your scent, and headed for his bowling alley to play a few frames. He could only wait and see if you stayed.

Sweet Girl.

Summary || Werewolf Bucky has been gone away on a mission for a month now - he comes back and shows how much he missed his girl.

Warning/content || A/B/O dynamics, alpha!Bucky, smut, breading kink, heat implied, fingering, oral receiving (female), a little rough but soulmate AU, soft!Bucky, so so soft.

Paring || Bucky Barnes x female reader

A/N: I never write smut, I just never did so I dunno if it's good, but I'll write more if you guys like it, let me know!

Bucky Barnes master list || join my tag list!

Bucky's nostrils flare the moment he steps through the front door, the scent is enough to send goosebumps up his skin, heart stutters inside the confines of ribs as the mate bond pulls him closer and closer inside.

The thought of seeing his girl after so long, the Moon's blessing; his soulmate makes his vision blur, his skin buzz with excitement.

There's something else, well hidden and masked away under the layers of clothes, it's sweeter and no one but an Alpha would know - your on the brink of your heat.

He should have realized, over the course of a few weeks gaining some extra weight. It carries on broad shoulders and bulges his belly; the body's way of preparing to fight for his mate and endure the strenuous work of satisfying and breeding his girl.

Bucky heads straight for the bedroom, where no doubt you're buried in a thick pile of his shirts and miscellaneous blankets by now, anything that carried his smell. His fingers grip the door knob harshly, jaw clenching at your scent, new and fresh sends shivers down his spine.

Without a second thought, he enters the cooled room watching as your head raises just to curl deeper into the comfort of a pillow.

"Hi, baby." Bucky doesn't even bother to pull the laces from his boots, instead harshly yanks them off before throwing them somewhere across the room.

His nose nuzzles your collarbone as flat mechanical hand supports his body weight from crushing you. The tip skims over the skin on the base of your neck, down the bony clavicle until he takes a deep breath - smelling from the source. "Missed you babydoll."

A soft, pink tongue reaches from pouty lips to run across the mating gland, the tattoo of his fangs that would last a life time.

"Missed you too, honey." Soft hands reach up cup his cheeks, rub finger nails against the dark coarse hair. Bushy and full, not having much time to shave. Not that you minded anyways, angling his lips to your own before pressing a soft kiss.

Those lips follow down his jawline, thick column of his neck until reaching the mark you created against his skin, scenting him. The smell of your alpha instantly relaxes you, between being on edge of your coming heat and missing him, it's exactly what you needed.

"Doing okay?"

You nod, knowing exactly what he's asking. The nest was only about three days old, the side affects just starting to set way, there's no heat waves, no pain but it's hard to feel comfortable with your Alpha so far away.

"Can't stop eating and I feel anxious when you're gone."

"I know sweetheart, I'm here now." Now he's crushing you with his weight, pressing soothing kisses - small apologies against your temple. A shewolf is always known to get a crippling amount of anxiety around this time and with the desire to start nesting it was only a matter of time before it happened. "Gonna go take a shower, you stay here. I'll make us something to eat too."

"You go shower, I'll start dinner."

"I don't want you getting up, honey. I'll cook, you lay here and look pretty. I don't want you more stressed then you already are." With the changing hormones and body's preparation for creating a new life the slightest things could send you off. "Besides, I want you rested and ready to be bred."

The words send a shiver down your spine, right to your very core. Which Bucky instant picks up on, sniffing the air as his eyes flutter close. "You make it so hard honey, you smell so good my 'mega."

Your hips lift off the bed, only to rub into the thick line of his erection, heavy and hot against your inner thigh as a small gasp leaves his lips. Gentle but strong hands cup your hips, fingertips squeezing the perfect amount to make you moan but despite your protest he pushes you back into the matress and whispers a raspy, "Behave," into your ear before disappearing into the bathroom.

Despite his clear warning, you decided to start dinner. Nothing to fancy, pasta with cheese and some home made garlic bread.

Bucky is momentarily stunned the moment he sees you - stirring the sauce in nothing but his shirt and a pair of black, cotton panties except for the fact they're growing tighter, the only thing that currently fits you at the moment and they're still so tight, causing red marks of irritation and cutting into your skin - hips and thighs rounding and fattening - preparing for the next few brutal days of being so sick to your stomach there is no time to eat. Which also explains the apprehensive appetite.

Your body is changing, bare breast rub against the white t-shirt. Bras no longer fitting due to the swelling and heaviness of tender breast, nipples already hard as you turn around to reach for the salt on the kitchen counter but Bucky doesn't give you a chance too.

With unhuman speed he has you spread across the length of kitchen island, torso presses between your legs to keep them apart. The clicking and swirling of metal plates as cool appendages cup the heaviness of your left breast, so full and big. You hiss softly, sore and sensative from the fact you don't have time to catch up with your changing body.

His erection is heavy against your clothed wound, soaking the cotton panties out of per primal behavior. He groans softly, eyes fluttering like he's in physical pain at the smell - arousal musky in the air.

"Hurts Buck, I'm sore."

"Look so good." It's barely audible as a cool and flesh hand slip under the shirt, flipping up and over your full breasts. Heavy and large like they're filled with milk, body naturally reacting to the fact it's fully capable of growing his babies and he fully intends for it to.

His top half is bare, his own weight gain is promient, broad shoulder three times bigger then normal, chest packed with muscles, stomach fit but bulking. Steel eyes filled with glossy arousal, bottom lips tucked between pearly whites and he just stares - being under his gaze is exciting, primal as darkening eyes dare you to move, to run from your alpha but that's the last thing you want to do.

"Nothing fits me anymore, babydoll." He notices you eyeing his physique but there was no doubt in your mind with the rut weight he would ever fit into those shirts - not until your heat is over.

"Me either." Hips press against his own, catching him off guard as your cloth covered pussy rubs his throbbing hard on, a soft, surprised moan catching in his throat.

His hand presses against your sternum, the other holding your hip down against the marble counter, a warning. "Stop that, honey, you're making this hard."

"I need you, Bucky." So needy, he throbs against the heat.

"Not until your heat comes, don't want to waste it." The reply makes you whine, a pout that makes breathing cease in his chest. Heats weren't regular, sometimes could take up to two years to come back and after your last one came back with negative results, he was going to make sure this time. "Gonna make sure you're filled with it all."

"Buck, I need it." Tears of frustration gather at the corner of your eyes, the hormones mixing with the uncomfortable sting that falls over your body, big fat tears slipping past eyelids. "Please, Alpha, need you."

The words would send any other Alpha over the edge - he was so fucking close to breaking but instead presses a gentle, flesh finger to gather to tears, wipe away collecting moisture on your cheeks. "Hey, hey, it's okay sweet girl, gonna take care of you."

Lips follow down the valley of your breast, over the thickening skin of your stomach, rough fingers clenching over the roundness of your thighs as a hiss of pleasure as your back arches from the cool counter top. Hands push you back down before the tip of his nose circles your belly button - a fat, wet tongue sticking out to lick a thick stripe against your inner thigh before nuzzling his nose against the cotton panties, inhaling the sweet scent of your wetness and coming heat.

Without your own will your hips press into his face, moaning softly at the contact. It hurt, practically throbbing the moment Bucky stepped into the house - his scent was enough to send you into a frenzy.

He didn't waste any time, metal hand tugging and tearing away the dark panties - not like they fit anymore anyways. Lips wrapping around your clit so beautifully you gasp, sucking and rolling it with a soft, satisfied yum.

"Oh, Buck!" Lips carve out over the hood of your pussy, sucking messily as filthy noises fill the room. He's barely even touched you but thighs squeeze his head.

He lets out a sound of annoyance like you would dare try to stop him from claiming what's his, fingers cupping the outer thighs and yanking so hard your inner ones burn but you barely have time to register as his tongue fills your pussy, skillfully flickering back and forth.

A thumb comes up to rub your clit, pressing a little to rough it makes you jump from his mouth which only earns a warning spank to the fullness of your ass. "Be a good girl."

You nod lamelessly, agreeing to anything as long as he puts his mouth back onto you. The obscene noises of your pussy will the air - the wetness combined with the brutal pace of his tongue, his need to pull back a few inches and spit before two very large fingers fill you. All but sucked inside.

"Fuck, fuck!" You moan,

Bucky pants - visibly pants as he eyes never leave your face, watching as fingers hit that delicious spot that makes your mouth fall open, curling and flickering inside you as another wave of wetness costs his hand, rolls down his wrist, down your inner thighs, you're dripping as eyes roll back onto your head.

"Doing so good for me sweet girl, you wanna come for me?"

Your mouth opens but no words come out under the brutal mercy of his pace, thick fingers quickening their past watching as eyelashes flutter against your cheeks. "You're so close, squeezing around me, jus' wanna feel it.. missed you."

Brain short circuiting, skin prickling with intense fire, ears and forehead heating making it nearly impossible to keep your eyes open as his tongue kitten licks your clit, teasing for a few times before he wraps those sinful lips around it and sucks, hard.

His other hand hand clicks as it presses up against your chin, rubbing against the fat of your bottom lip with a loud huff, "Suck."

Lips wrap around the metal phalax as it smooths along your tongue until it's so deep inside your throat, you gag. Bucky's wound up now, rutting his lips into cabinets of the island, looking for some kind of friction, relief from his throbbing cock.

He changes the angle of his fingers, hitting a different spot that makes you scream along with the harsh bite against your inner thigh and something snaps - you cum, cum so hard that it leaks all over his hand, smears his face and soaks the counter top.

He lazily lays a flesh hand onto your hip, using his thumb to rub soft, gentle circles against it as you pant loudly, crying to calm your stuttering heart. He doesn't say anything, still on his knees between your legs and rests his head on your right inner thigh but not before pressing a kiss there. "Won't be long now, sweetheart. You'll be filled with my pups before the start of next week."

The words are enough to make your heart swell - there's nothing more you want in this world but to fulfill his desire to have a big family, raise little ones together in this house he build from the ground up with the solid purpose of having babies.

He doesn't dare move from his spot instead lovingly gazes up at you, pressing a soft kiss to the rather harsh gash on your thigh. After he gives you a few moments to collect yourself, he pulls you down by your hips, joining him on the floor as your straddle his lap.

But instead of using this compromising position for his own use, he presses his nose against the healed mark of his fangs, and inhales deeply. The wolf inside him on edge, fighting the primal urge to fill his female right here on the floor.

Tiny pin pricks against it, the tip of his canines press into the skin but not enough to break it; clearly not wishing to harm you. It's not uncommon to strengthen the bond, especially after being away so long you completely understand.

"It's alright, you can do it."

"No." He mumbles and decides to place a kiss into it instead, "Already took it out on your thigh, sorry sweetheart."

"S, okay." You mumble, exhausted as eyelashes flutter against his should and he just holds you closer, whispering sweet words against your hair as he rocks you back and forth on his lap. A little calm before the storm that's coming.

What does everyone think? I'm actually pretty proud considering I had no idea what I was doing 😭 I also have a good idea for part 2 if anyone would like to read it? Comment to be tagged..

Note

I'm thinking about writing a small fic about your AU (scarf twins).

What I know so far: 1.) Y/N don't actually view them (sun & moon) as people only as machines. 2.) Sun and Moon are still daycare attendants despite being "smexy". It's just the style of the Pizzaplex that's most likely not a Pizzaplex in your AU.

And that's it. If you're willing, I'd like to know more. If you have a master's list or if you just want to talk either will be great so I can get a good idea for what the theme and tone is of your AU.

As I mentioned before I would be uncomfortable if someone wrote a fic about my AU in this moment. Since many on this website are missing some contents which could result in the characters being extremely inaccurate in that fic.

Also yes this does take place in the Mega Pizzaplex. It is just a Pizzaplex. Also Sun and Moon are not the only animtronics who are presented as smexy. There is a good reason for this.

Also I would like to ask of you to be patient with me uploading more visual contents of the Scarf Twins since in this moment I can't really post much on this website for a while due to my laptop being in for repairs.

I willing to answer more questions about this Au through here but I cannot give all that could spoil certain things in the story.

Hi hi!!!! Yes thank you for offering yourself up to the gunpla gods and may they have sweet sweet mercy upon your sweet innocent soul!

That said! Let’s give you a quick run down of Gunpla Grades which is one of the most important things to look at when picking a kit especially your first. They are as listed:

-Entry Grade (1/144)

-High Grade (1/144)

-Real Grade (1/144)

-Full Mechanics (1/100)

-Master Grade (1/100)

-Master Grade Extreme (1/100)

-Perfect Grade (1/60)

-Mega Sized (1/48)

So what do these all mean in terms of building experience? First thing is Size. You’ll have noticed I put the scale next to each grade, that’ll tell you how big the mode kit is compared to what a 1/1 scale statue would be. Typically 1/144 scale kits measure in about 6-10 inches tall. Next thing is Surface Detail. Lots of kits come with what’s called Panel Lines on pieces to add surface detail to the model, making it more dynamic and interesting to look at. While scale doesn’t always determine this it’s an easy way to think about it starting off. I’ll mention outlier scales here in a minute. Third would be Complexity. Again the trend can be broken here by scale but typically the larger the kit the more complex the kit. Things like moving armor gimmicks, transformations and the like are typically reserved for larger kits. Lastly and related to the last point is How Much Plastic is in the box. This is generally pretty consistent across the board. The larger the kit the more plastic your getting. This largely determines how much time you’re going to be spending on the model itself.

If you’re looking for a true blue beginners experience then Entry grade would be where you would start. But honestly I would say even a beginner would be able to tackle a High Grade pretty easy. They’re pretty cheap (average about $10-25 here in the US) and widely available.

Now Tools. Gunpla is a wonderful hobby bc you can invest as much or as little time as you want and still end up with a pretty snazzy model kit at the end. Starter tools I would suggest are: a good pair of nippers, panel lining markers, file. All of these can be snagged in the Tamiya Beginners Tool Kit for roughly $25. They’ll get you the nipper, a file, a pair of screwdrivers and a knife. I used that kit for YEARS (you’ll eventually upgrade to a single blade nipper for cleaner cuts but the tool kit is the best bang for your buck).

Now, Stand Out Grades. These are grades that are the same scale as another but buck the trend as mentioned above. First would be Real Grade. These have much more complex builds but WAY higher detail than most HG’s and even MG kits. They’re engineered to look like what the machine would look like if they were real so there’s differences va what you might see in the anime. Some earlier RG’s come with a prebuilt inner frame but I would suggest staying away from those early on (anything number at Unicorn or after is pretty safe once you feel comfortable to build those). MGEX is a new line of kits (only 2 in the line so far) which add an extra pizazz to the model. These are REALLY high priced. Full Mechanics is a line scaled at 1/100 but has more of a build closer to a HG but still retaining some of the benefits of a 1/100 MG kit (namely the detail). Another line I didn’t mention is the SD and MGSD kits. These are even cheaper but made with distorted proportions to make it look cute. MGSD will still run you around $45 however.

Take a look around Twitter or even pintrist for some crazy custom models. I like watching Mecha Gaikotsu for model reviews since he goes into a nice amount of detail and is more feared towards casual builders.

Anime!!! If you don’t have a subscription the GundamInfo on YouTube is a great resource to watch the shows for Free! They’ll even stream some of the movies from time to time. There’s a post on my blog that includes a chart of all the shows so it’s really your pick if you want to watch AU shows or dive into the UC timeline shows. My favorite AU show is probably Gundam 00 and my favorite UC show is Unicorn (OVA version over the episodic version)! Hope this helps and for real fair warning: Buying gunpla and Building gunpla are two very different hobbies. You have been warned :3

I posted about Gundam/Gunpla like a minute or two ago, if anyone has advice on how to get into the hobby as a beginner on a budget please let me know, especially where to get one of those cutter things I really need one of those

Maybe even some things from the series to watch cuz I wanna know what these mech dudes are all about

#whew #I say this as a very real warning bc since my last backlog post I’ve bought 4 more kits #one of which was the MGEX Strike Freedom #also snagged Calibarn and Schearzette #also the Lords Favorite Son Guntank #gunpla #gundam
