Happy Belated Valentine's day, tumblr! Have some chaotic valentines, inspired by the wonderfully chaotic queer pirates in Running Close to the Wind by Alexandra Rowland, which comes out this June! Check out a sneak peek here.

HUGE shoutout to @starful02 for the wondeful fanart of Avra, Tev, and Julian, as well as for a few of the puns. And shoutout to Danielle, Hobbit, and Sawfish for their help with puns and ideas for the cards, and everyone else who was hyping me up in the Chants and the Wide World Discord. (You can join us here if you're curious about the book!)

I am once again asking my Scooby mutuals to watch Josie and the pussycats

Ivy: Alright, I have a math problem for you. There are seven baby birds in a tree when their mother and father come back. How many birds are in the tree now? Sophitia: *starts crying* Ivy: Why are you crying? Sophitia: I’m sorry, I can’t focus on math right now! I’m just so happy the bird family was reunited!

Alt text in the image and alt-text here too:

A redraw of Ivy and Sophitia from Soul Calibur, Ivy is looking at the viewer, with a somewhat devious expression. Sophitia's eyes are closed. A sword is brandished vaguely over her shoulder. The image has been redrawn in the style of a PC98 game. My signature is in the top right corner, stating Byrd in all caps.

Even more outfit recreations! (I thought I had already made enough, but I was wrong)

I prefer Sophitia's Soul Edge 1p over her other 1ps, probably because it somehow reminds me of Xena and Wonder Woman (and both have ties to Greek mythology, what a coincidence), so I really wanted to make something similar in SC VI. The most difficult part to put together were her boots – there is only one pair that looks close, but they're too short, and I think the length makes a noticeable difference. I ended up placing some stickers on socks and colored socks close to her skin tone, but they are still not the same color. Still, it's the best that I could come up with, and ngl I like it. Fighting Cervantes on Indian Port sage in this outfit was fun.

Another costume from Soul Edge I like is her PS exclusive. It's unlike anything else she has in the other games, and it's just pretty. Still not sure about the hat, but for now I'm keeping this version. I would like if the tunic allowed for stickers though, because patterns are more difficult to place nicely.

Next is Maxi's 2p from SC III with some elements from other games. I liked two-colored pants and some robe on his upper body, but the black scarf doesn't stand out as much, so I changed it to red (not even my idea, I took it from Silvershire's video on Maxi's costumes). Also the shoes are closer to his SC II 2p because others would be more difficult to replicate.

The rest are just improved versions of what I put together before in this post. Raphael had very few changes – some stickers to give more texture to his red shirt, adjusted colors here and there, and I placed special equipment to resemble buttons.

For Ivy, I changed the upper equipment because this one has a corset, and adjusted colors again, so it looks closer to the original.

I added a belt, changed boots and colors for Tira's outfit. Plus gave her makeup that brings her closer to SC IV look.

With Cassandra's costume, I went for a full revamp. The first version was nice, but it still missed something imo, and then I figured what – the silhouette is a big part of why I like the original costume, and in my recreation it wasn't the same (plus that tunic doesn't allow for stickers). So I decided to change the top, and there is a good option in the inner body layer, the problem is that it takes off her tights. Still, I went with this one and placed a bunch of stickers to make it look similar to the original (stickers that change the texture of clothing are very useful for this). I also changed boots to short ones, picked a different neck equipment and chose tall socks to imitate her tights. And as a cherry on top, I let Cassandra's hair down because it looks cute with this.

Odd Girl Out

"Threesome" changes to "trio", which is frankly a better match even besides. But this poses that recurring question of when a word accrues the connotation and meaning in such overwhelming fashion as to see it is to have it stick out enough to change it. Here, it is sometime after 1998.

Deciding not to get cute on "show biz" and decide "madhouse" is one word.

Pss Pss Pss, come get your Josie behind the scenes stuff.
