chronicles of me trying to get the akinator to guess my kintype 👇
first round, we did great. not what i was going for, since im looking for tsow asset, but like come on, the asset and the gill-man are pretty much the same thing. good starts.
--
second try was something. i mean, i GUESS. the gill-man influence is there, we are on the same family tree. still in the right ballpark but not really.
--
swamp thing is cool. i mean, i'm also a green slimy creature in the swamps. but we're getting off track, here. i'm a fish monster, not a swamp amalgamation. the fish is a pretty important part, hopefully we'll get back to that soon.
--
i mean. tmnt is fun. they're green. but thats about where it stops? im a swamp critter, not a sewer critter. i guess we've left the whole fish thing behind.
--
at least the fish is back
--
now after a while of getting "sorry idk" between and after all of these, i gave in and got the app. And low and behold, the very first attempt yielded wonderful results. whatdya know! and they even used my profile picture ;]
10/10 this was a lot of fun! definitely recommend trying to get your kin or kintype!! especially if they aren't super mainstream

I 100%-ed Banjo-Kazooie, again. This took me 6 hours and 40 minutes
Thoughts on each world under the cut because why not!
Spiral Mountain has peak music and it’s a great tutorial level.
Gruntilda’s Lair is amazing with how whimsical it is, Grunty having her face plastered in almost every room, each world’s entrance looking like it’s from an indoor play place, the music! It’s great!
Mumbo’s Mountain is definitely a first world, nothing too crazy going on but nothing is truly bad about, comparing it to first world of Tooie tho there’s far less stuff to do, I mean Tooie does start you with all the moves from the previous game so makes sense. A pretty decent first world.
I died multiple times in Treasure Trove Cove for some reason, but it’s a pretty good world as well! I have no strong opinions on it like Mumbo’s Mountain but it’s definitely a step up compared to it.
Clanker’s Cavern is a good water level idc what anyone says, you hardly spend that much time actually under water, even when you are the longest you’ll be in it is when you’re releasing Clanker of his chains. You spend most of it on, in, or around Clanker, ITS A GOOD WATER LEVEL AND A GOOD WORLD!
Bubble Gloop Swamp is definitely another world lmao, nothing bad about it again I just have no strong opinions on it, it definitely exist, I will give it props to having some memorable set pieces like the giant gator head and the huge turtle.
Freezeezy Peak is one of the best snow worlds, one reason is that ice physics don’t suck mainly due to Kazooie, and also CHRISTMAS ITS ALL CHRISTMAS THEMED, gets you into the festive vibe just by listening to the music and looking at all the set pieces! I did lose to Boggy twice someone, my hatred for Boggy has now been established. It’s also the only time you absolutely need to backtrack and I think it’s fine in this game.
Golbi’s Valley sucks mainly because I usually remember what jiggies are where with the set pieces around them, EVERYTHING IS SAND AND PYRAMIDS HERE IT SUCKS! My personal worst world in Banjo-Kazooie but not because it’s actually bad but because of the fact I can’t remember where anything is.
I can’t remember a single thing I did in Mad Monster Mansion, which is weird because I like it but I guess there aren’t any like really memorable set pieces bedsides the main mansion in the center of the level and the maze I guess. It’s still really good and gives off the Halloween vibe!
I actually don’t dislike Rusty Bucket Bay as much as I would’ve thought, especially compared to a certain other world. You only need 3 things in the oily water and it’s not that hard to not fall off into the water so it’s not really an issue, and the Xbox version fixes the music notes issue so the engine room is fine, I mean I never usually die in there anyways but ya know lmao. Only gripe I have with it is there’s no set pieces other than the Boat itself, and I did have to look up where the last empty honey comb was (didn’t have to look up anything else in any other world) but ya know pretty decent world!
Idk if it was because I was really tired and it was late but Click Clock Wood has gone to one of my favorite worlds to one of my least favorites, it’s mainly due to the fact I kept falling down the damn tree and the fucking birds have horrible hit boxes and would knock me down the tree whenever I would try to kill them. Other than those two things the concept of going to through the same level multiple times but the seasons change showing the passage of time really cool! The winter section is probably my favorite but that’s probably because there’s no birds and hardly any enemies. I did have to look up where the last jiggy was for this world, I forgot that there was one in spring all the way at the top you need to get with the bee lmao. Pretty good stage I just hate the birds.
That has been my Ted talk and you’ve been watching a fish, smoking a cigarette (I’m gonna hate Banjo-Tooie)

okay Secret Life's over and I've only watched Cleo and Skizz's finales.
but I wanna rank the seasons just bc.
Secret Life is honestly 1 for me. it had my favourite alliances yet, I loved the Cletho + Grian team (I refuse to call them 'Roomies'), the Heart Foundation was amazing, the Mounders were pretty cool, I actually really enjoyed Lizzie and Scar being alone, no matter how sad it was. Big Dogs were amazing actually, one of the best pairings, most fun base in all the seasons just off the top of my head :]
but I have to say. first half of the season was my absolute favourite. silly tasks, BigB gaslighting everyone, Lizzie, Mumbo, Jimmy alive, etc etc. it's probably up until the episode they die where it felt like it decreased in enjoyment for me. the zombie apocalypse task was ehhhh, the vibe was cool, very LL energy, but I overall didn't like it all that much (I understand and appreciate it still, but the whole cancelling out other tasks was sad :[)
the vibes of this finale seem... weird.
and you might say I have no place to say that, having only watched two finales and getting spoiled on who the winner is yet again, but I personally didn't enjoy it. everyone felt extremely rushed and fumbled so hard. Joel in particular on his Skizz kill. Cleo didn't get a chance to defend herself, and neither did Etho, and presumably Grian. all the group ups felt off to me. I feel like the Heart Foundation should've stuck more to Cletho + Grian, they all could've done a bit better them I feel.
the massive group of people just sticking together and killing everyone else was a bit ehhh to me, but as Cleo put it, they'd have to kill each other eventually (ive watched it twice and I can't remember exactly what they say. I am a failure :[)
second is Last Life, I was insane over Team BEST for a while, but I'm more insane over Team TIES now (I have reasons I won't say teehee)
Mumbo and Lizzie are here!! they're cool!!
loved the mechanics for this season. boogeyman was very cool, and the random life count was epic. favourite mechanics actually.
lot of favourite deaths, Impulse's final death was pretty cool to me, betrayal deaths make me bite the bars of my cage, not looking at anyone in particular *ahem* BigB, Martyn's stupid yellow(?) death, Scar and BigB's final deaths were insane (Operation Bubblevator!!)
Fairy Fort was an insane alliance I never was that big on them when this season was active, but hooooollllly hell these guys. (Do me a favour. Die for me.)
the music disk, Etho freaking everyone out with it. the "Bogeyman", Southlands. Southlands just in general.
episode 6...........................
the final 8 survivors (-one. you know who they are they won it.) Pearl's boogey kill, her protecting Cleo, Joel's double kill, the final 2 battles. ough. this season had everything man. I hate the cold and winter but the wintery vibes of this season were immense and I loved it so much (no thanks to the Snow Fort...)
a lot of the final yellow kills were cool, in particular Etho and Cleo dying together, in the same order (twice in a row!!). Etho trying so hard to at least kill Ren before Pearl killed him is one of the most memorable moments for me.
and Mumbo screaming as Etho fishing rods him up into the air. and then the dogs.
and the lotion throw at the beginning of session 6.
and Lizzie's first death after failing to kill her husband. those are all extremely memorable moments :]
3L is next for almost no other reason than "nostalgia" purposes.
one thing I liked about this season was how innocent and pure everyone was.
idk about anyone else, but, except for its burning. s. I really enjoyed the Wool Castle. the swamp. and Etho trying to become Shrek or something. what was up with them
my favourite character from this season was undoubtedly Joel though. I LOVED his base, his dead bushes, Cleo dying to his roof, his roof constantly burning. with him. his army of dogs. first dog boy. Gerald. ine. I feel like he forgets his red skin at some point in this season and I really enjoyed the skin changes between colors.
also feel like him n Cleo tease Renchanting for being so loyal to Ren. (oh my go d they're actually calling him king!)
4th is Limited Life.
listen. I feel like I should like this season more than I did. I was sort of falling out of the Life Series at this point so I don't have much to say let alone remember.
but let me tell you.
Skynet.
5th is Double Life.
another season I feel like I should've enjoyed more. I loved Team Ranchers at first, but the way everyone sort of treated them was... whatever, and them people talking about Boat Boys made me live Boat Boys (I didn't feel much for them at first, but oh my gosh) but those two are my top two pairings (I can't pick between them rn)
I have no hate for this season
Scar and his allay buddy, being oblivious to who his soulmate is, Mickey Mouse. Scar was a pretty fun character, plus all his skins for this season were really cool!! insane over them still
all the pairings were really cool, I loved the Divorce Quarter, the Vultures. they were cool, I loved how they just refused their fate. (and how Martyn literally killed himself. and how Cleo was the only person to have died all three times while Martyn was partially responsible for all of them in some way.)
the pillar outside the Midcentury Modern Home or something. the fishing rod party. (Joel and Etho's demise-) one thing I feel like was overlooked with them was that Scott was like. wrong. about them. sure having the both of them pulled up so they take double damage was stupid. but it was Joel. who. died. and took all of their hearts. Etho didn't even hit the ground. in fact I think he barely even left it.
also one thing that makes me bite and tear at my cage is that Etho and Joel were the pairing to have died at the midpoint. 3 pairings died before them. 3 pairings died after them. and, despite Joel losing their earlier 2 lives, Etho being the first to die on their final life splits them into top half and bottom half, with Etho being 8th this season, and Joel being 7th.
also the Ranchers' Warden was-

because @claire-witch-project asked, here is how I made those things it's not a recipe so much as it is a suggestion because you can really substitute a lot of this stuff based on what you have in your kitchen.
For honey tilapia:
get frozen tilapia fillets no bones rip harrow would hate this part
run it under some cool or lukewarm water for a minute to get it unfrozen enough to apply seasoning
warm up pan with cooking spray before putting the fish on there. Idk this one might be intuitive for people who can really cook jhkhjj
anyway for seasonings I used salt, pepper, dash garlic and herb seasoning blend, and ground turmeric, then I poured some honey on (for best results ON the fish not on the pan)
cook about 8-10 minutes on each side, you can do a little less if you've already thawed the fish in the fridge for a while but who's got time for that. Also I like mine a bit burned so basically just cook it at least until the meat goes flaky and gets the right fish meat texture it WILL still be white inside tilapia is just that color . try not to disturb it too much it will flake everywhere but if you smell it burning add more cooking oil in there
If the turmeric turns it yellow on the outside that's normal that means you've seasoned it enough
For the veggies/potatoes
chop up some potatoes of any variety, sweet potatoes are especially good baked like this but russet potatoes are easier to chop so pros and cons
Chop up some other stuff. For best results some type of onion should be in there but don't chop it too small it will burn
I like to add bell peppers, especially the red ones, sometimes zucchini or squash or both
put baking spray on the bottom of a pan and spread your chopped mix evenly then slather some type of oil on top, I use olive oil
for seasoning I use salt, pepper, rosemary, and the same garlic/herb seasoning blend although it's potatoes you can kind of just put whatever on there
set oven to 350 or 375 kind of depends on how hot your oven is and how patient you are, mine isn't that hot. I got the best results at 375 for about an hour on the bottom rack although my onions DID scorch. it all depends on the texture you like and you may have guessed I like my meals well done
And THAT is tilapia/veggie/potato meal! come back next time for more meal tips from your local swamp creature ♥️
Trying to be more positive about life though so I would LOVE to inform you all that I'm making honey tilapia and potato/veggie mix for dinner
#i wouldn't say i'm a good cook except when it comes to baking bread which i'm somehow great at?#but i do know how to get my calories into me in a way that is bearable texturally and occasionally delicious#i would not be ashamed to serve this fish to my mother so you know it's halfway decent

in honor of fireflies being removed here is my probably incoherent list of everything that should be added to minecraft Mossy logs ( someone has already said this i can't remember who but credit to that person)
- fallen tree logs that slowly gain moss as time goes on kinda like copper
- will eventually grow mushrooms when peak moss™ is acquired
- players can shear logs to get a mossy carpet
- only works for naturally spawning fallen trees so its kinda rare
LEAVES!
-falling leaves work a lot like snow
-like with snow, over time leaves will gather in layers and from leaf piles, this will take a while tho
-leaves will be particles and thus will be togglable
-leaf piles will also spawn naturally
leaf mob
-hids in leaf piles
-neutral mob, will only attack if leaf pile is disturbed
- will attack any mob that disturbs pile
-looks kinda like the glare but leaves
-when killed it turns into a normal leaf pile
Tree mushrooms!
- grow on the side of trees
- can be stacked on the same block
- will be placed randomly on the block like flowers
- will spawn naturally (only in dark conditions)
- can’t be bonemealed to make more (works similar to vines) BUT
- if one is placed then grown with bonemeal it will turn into a side block thing and can be used to walk on
- used to breed mushroom deer
Mushroom deer
- like a mooshroom but a deer
- has antlers similar to the warden
- has brown mushrooms growing on it but if struck by lightning they will turn red
- will randomly drop antlers that can be used as decoration or used in potions
- will run away from player if damaged
- have similar behavior to foxes
Flower cottages
- naturally spawning flower cottages
- similar to witch huts
- spawn in flower forests
- have beehives and flowers spawn outside them
- not very useful but look pretty!
Hanging vines
- hang from the bottom of blocks like glowberry vines
- but a lot smaller and darker green (more vine like colour)
- can be stacked on blocks
- will sometimes spawn connected to others in a weird hanging arch thing (can’t be placed normally cause idk how that would work)
- change colour depending on biome!
- found mainly in swamps and jungles
Graveyards:
- randomly spawn in most biomes
- contain gravestones as well as the larger graves
- bit of cool loot but thats kinda it
- mobs spawn more frequently there
- graves sorta merge with the landscape, so you could have one on a hill
- some graves have wither roses on them
- idk it would be very cool for lore reasons
Chisel:
- used to engrave writing into stone
- works with stone blocks and stone bricks
- similar to how signs work but its just engraved in the stone
- breaking block will reset text
other smaller things:
- make grass move ever so slightly in the wind!
- reeds for ponds and stuff
- add koi fish it would be cool!
- song birds, acting similar to parrots but come in browns and greys
- give cacti flowers!
- add the fireflies back in mojang please we want the fireflies
#minecraft#mineblr#long post#minecraft 1.19#minecraft updates#mojang please hire me /j#i want the fireflies back is that so hard to ask for :(#also i want the glare and mooshroom :(

Sleep Deprived Prompts.
Chapter 1: Flower Husbands but Empires SMP and with Tommyinnit.
So! Flower Husbands. But in Empires SMP and with Tommyinnit.
Like, think about it.
The whole ending thing didn't happen, and instead Jimmy and Scott have this wonderful wedding and live together. Like, Jimmy lives with Scott and do all his Empires duty's there but goes back to the Swamp Empire whenever he needs to. Like, meeting with the Cod Council or something. Idk, I'm bad at politics. Unless it's about trading. Then that's a different story.
Anyways!
So, they got married. And like, one day Jimmy or Scott sees a Blondie playing with his child (like when he's out doing errands or something) and goes all "Huh, Jimmy would make a great father..." But turns sad because he can't give Jimmy a child because no Mpreg in my AU... Yet. Anyways, he goes back to the palace/castle and Jimmy seed him all sad and goes "Are you okay Scott" and since communication is healthy Scott tells Jimmy what he saw this morning and why he's sad.
Jimmy being a wonderful husband, comforts Scott and tells them that "Hey! Maybe we can get a child!" Scott then says he doesn't wanna adopt one, he wants to actually give Jimmy a child with both their features and blood running through the child veins. (the blood, not the features.)
But then Jimmy then gets an idea that maybe Gem can help and shit since she's a witch) wizard and.... Magic. I have no explanation.
But then Lizzie who was there the entire time because she was visiting (I forgot to add that) chimes in about how Fich Hybrids can in fact get pregnant and impregnate regardless the sex. Why? Because fish biology, Idk man, you decide why.
And so they did. And out comes Tommy. With Scott's eyes and Jimmy's hair.
Except he wasn't named yet, only nicknamed. Because according to Rivendell traditions, A child can only be named on their 3rd month of living. Why? Because...
But before Tommy turned 3 months, some old enemies of Rivendell pop up and cause havock across the server. Like war and shit.
And of course as King and Emperor, Jimmy and Scott had to fight in the Frontlines and left their son to the care of the palace maids.
And of course, since Scott is married to Jimmy that means their Empires are natural allies, and by proxy so is the Ocean Empire and Mazelia. And well, it's hard to win in a war with a kingdom with that many powerful allies. But then the enemy decided that the best way to defeat the enemy is by getting rid of the thing they all have an attachment to. And what or who do they all have an attachment to?
Who else then the son of of both the King/Emperor of both Rivendell and Swamp Empire. The nephew of the Ocean Queen and the King of Mazelia.
Tommy.
So they did. But then an alarm spell thing that Scott added on Tommy just in case. Rang and alerted Scott and Jimmy of the kidnapping and had both of them to go back to the palace. Jimmy arrived first for reasons, and found the maids out of commissioned/knocked out or killed and the nursery empty of any blond hair child.
Naturally, Jimmy screamed...
Lizzie found about it and went ape SHIT/BAMF Ocean Queen and killed each enemy.
And that's when the enemy knew... They fucked up.
So their all dead now.
Except for the person who kidnapped Tommy, because that person is still alive and booked it out of there. Leaving Tommy in a random forest in a random server.
Then out comes Philza! He saw Baby Tommy and went "is anyone gonna adoot that child?" And didn't wait for an answer.
Of course, he didn't do a good job since he left the explore the world with Technoblade/help help with voices and stiff and essentially neglecting him and Wilbur.... Yeah, we got Bad Parent Philza here folks.
All of the same stuff happens. Dream SMP, petwars, war of independance, election arc, etc... The only thing that isn't that same is that Charlie is alive and kicking. My Slimecicle and Quackity fic is canon here bitch.
Now, the revivival of wilbur thing is still canon, and so is the burger van. But that's how canon takes a turn and he lost in the woods of Headcanons and my denial.
Because finally, after years of looking for their son, Lizzie had got a lead. See, Lizzie is the Ocean Queen and the Goddess of the Sea', and therefore the sea obeys her commands, and in her greif of losing her nephew, she ordered to sea to find him.
Now, most of Tommy's life he's been away from the ocean. The cabin he one lived at with the Sbi was int he middle of woods and therefore incredibly far away from the ocean.
But at his second exile he lived beside the ocean. And slept beside it. Basically, the reason Tommy keeps waking up in the Ocean is because Lizzie was calling for him via the ocean. Of course that ended up with him being traumatized more, but that was accidental. So yeah....
Anyways, Lizzie got a lead, found out about the Dream SMP server that got locked down years ago, and went "Well, won't be the first time I broke into a server".
And then told the others, to which they went "Fuck it, why not." And broke into the server.
You guys can take it from here, this has gone way too long.

today it’s snowing courtesy of Storm E*nice and where i’m from it doesn’t snow at all, so i’ll be ranking all the snow episodes from the series. buckle up or something idk
5. Clan of the Cave Raccoon
no. not you.
4. Menace from the North, eh!
ugh, this honestly pains me to admit but Menace from the North isn’t a good episode, and i personally feel like it marks the beginning of Sly 2′s third act, which fails to keep up with the former two. it has some cute moments like that poor Mammoth, throwing fish at the guards, scaling the lighthouse, the bear cave, and the final bossfight, but overall i feel like it falls short in many ways. my main issue is that the set-up looks amazing at first but the execution isn’t great. for instance, the lighthouse contains many secrets to the Klaww Gang’s plans and the player wants to enter as soon as possible, but when we finally get in, there’s not much to do? same goes for the Canada Games, which are a great concept on paper, but the execution fell a bit flat for me. also, the fact that most missions include all three members of the gang takes away from their memorability and individuality, leading to this episode feeling like a slog to get through. as for the setting and hub... Menace from the North, meh...
3. Fire in the Sky
i love this episode so freaking much you don’t understand. each mission’s architecture is so amazing, the vibes are immaculate, the music is outstanding. even the Murray sections are enjoyable. i will never forget watching my dad play this before i knew how and spending literal HOURS searching for the last clue bottle in Flaming Tower of Flame (the one hidden under the initial laser section, where you have to sneak through the side). the only reason this episode is not higher on the list is because of its main hub. it all felt a bit lazy to me, how it’s only a big roof followed by the lakefront with only the entrances to the missions as the main features. it definitely doesn’t compare to Sir Raleigh’s ship, the Mesa City casino, and the Haitian swamps. oh and also the Panda King. i’m aware he was initially meant to be the first baddie, but even so, he’s the least threatening member of the Fiendish Five. couple that with his overly simplistic bossfight, and you’ve got the most underwhelming villain in the game, sandwiched between the absolute powerhouse that was Mz Ruby and, of course, Clockwerk.
2. A Cold Alliance
in comparison to the other episodes and the sentimental value they hold, i didn’t come to appreciate this one until relatively recently. it was always sorta average for me, because of its bland colours and vast hub which, just like with the other Sly 3 hubs, failed to make an impression. and yet, the story here is absolutely amazing. all the story beats are delicious: Panda King’s redemption arc, Tsao as a 10/10 villain who breaks into the Safehouse, Sly’s dilemma on PK joining the gang, Murray and Penelope’s bonding moments, the return of the van, Carmelita’s inclusion, vampires, dark magic and a motherfucking dragon. almost all the missions are exciting and fun. in particular, A Battery of Peril is one of my favourite missions in the entire series, it is so damn good. we get 2 excellent bossfights (the first one having 2 sections as well) and 2 hubs, with the initial one as an ‘all hands on deck’ mission done right. AND the whole wedding planning thing is so fabulously fruity, it is such a kiki with all its disguises and Carmelita dressing up as a bride to get the last laugh.
1. He Who Tames the Iron Horse
Ok hear me out on this one. i was considering placing A Cold Alliance over this but... its charm is unbeatable. this episode feels just like a snow day: short and sweet. i mentioned how Menace from the North marked the beginning of Sly 2′s third act, and He Who Tames the Iron Horse is the intermission between the acts. it doesn’t try to compete with the other episodes, it does its own thing at its own pace and it is so refreshing after the bleak Contessa levels. some of my favourite moments: the train missions (duh), harassing Carmelita in the hub, Neyla’s comeback with her Wacky Racers jet, baby bear cubs, eavesdropping on Jean Bison in his own cabin, Murray and Carmelita’s exchange on jellybeans, Spice in the motherfucking Sky. holy shit is that mission good. of course, the highlight of the episode is the trains and infiltrating them is such a joy. the mixture of gameplay is enjoyable, the stakes are high with Jean Bison himself riding on one of them, and in the end the risk pays off and it’s a big success for the gang. i love this case i don’t even care that it’s short and that the hub isn’t as big.
#OMFG IT'S SNOWING !!!!!!!!!!!#i want Menace from the North meh... written on my gravestone#sly cooper#the sun came out by the time i finished writing this

Found Family AU character facts/background (part 7)
well, folks, we've made it to the last one of these posts - minus the upcoming master post. these just seem to get longer and longer, or maybe it's just because the past two have been about siblings? idk, all I know is that I'm a bit tired of writing these atm.
this last one should - SHOULD be shorter, but we'll see. this one will feature our last two characters - Mr. there's-no-such-thing-as-a-demon Joel Smallishbeans and good ol' Copper Dad Pixlriffs.
*did you know that Mesoglea is a word? I didn't until I kept trying to type "Mezalea" and my computer kept wanting to change it. Mesoglea is a gelatinous substance between the endoderm and ectoderm of sponges or cnidarians, or something. there's your word of the day and it's all thanks to the red squiggly line that appears every time I type "Mezalea"
*edit: guess what? y'all get two of these in one day because I felt like writing this last one! [technically, it's already Saturday but to me, the next day doesn't start until the sun comes up so yeah...two in one day! whoo!] the master post will be tomorrow sometime but idk when.
Joel
Joel is the only child to the Mezalean King and Queen, and was less born to them and more born from the Mother Tree - they couldn't have children so they begged the Mother Tree for an heir, She granted them a child who they raised as their own.
he was often alone growing up, never really played with the other children, but he wasn't lonely - so he and others would say - because he had his terracotta clones. he built many of them with his own two hands and the Mother Tree gave them life. he was raised as a prince and often went to the Gathering of the Empires with his father.
he got on well enough with the other children but kept mostly to himself - that is until he met the princess of the Ocean Empire. he noticed the other noble children seemed afraid of her so he took it upon himself to befriend her - plus, she was so different from the humans/clones around him, she was interesting with her pink hair and pearlescent skin and unnaturally blue eyes.
they would meet at the Gathering and spend the whole time together talking about their kingdoms and their hobbies - Joel was really into building and playing pranks on people, Lizzie was into raising axolotls and has a brother who she looks after. the short meetings weren't enough and Joel talked to his parents about visits with the Ocean Empire - it only makes sense since the two empires boarder each other. unknown at that moment, the Oceanic rulers proposed the same thing to the Mezalean rulers.
visits began between the two kingdoms and Joel found himself in love quickly enough - he loved Lizzie, he loved her little brother, he loved the Ocean Empire itself. but he kept his feelings to himself for fear of rejection, that is until he was about 16 when Lizzie came to him with talk of marriage - their parents had been discussing it but didn't want to force their children into it. he and Lizzie talked it over then went to their parents together and promised a future wedding, he also promised that Jimmy could be his best man.
life was peaceful, there were plenty of long visits between kingdoms, him and Jimmy often got into trouble - then the King of the Ocean Empire was killed. Joel tried to be there for her but found travel between kingdoms difficult due to the ongoing storms surrounding the Ocean Empire, he still managed to write Lizzie and once was able to visit - though getting back was just as difficult as getting in.
then several months later the storms stopped and Lizzie wrote to him about her taking the throne - she had said the Queen returned to the sea, though, he didn't really understand what that meant. he returned to the Ocean Empire and was there for Lizzie's coronation. he started visiting regularly for a time and each visit seemed to last longer than the one before it - he was there so often that Jimmy suggested he just move in. he did, with both his parents' and Lizzie's permission.
two years after that, he asked Lizzie to marry him and she said yes. they had two ceremonies, a proper land-dweller one in Mezalea, and another smaller Oceanic ceremony. being King now to the Ocean Empire meant he was basically a trophy husband but he didn't mind, he was happy as long as he was at Lizzie's side. if there was a Gathering, he or Jimmy would go with her, though usually Jimmy stayed home to watch over the kingdom - but he made sure to bring him plenty of stories and food from the Gathering.
Joel received word from his parents that an illness had struck Mezalea and the King and Queen had caught it. he returned home immediately to help where he could, Lizzie often sent aid to him, as did the kingdom's ally Pixandria - he had hardly ever spoken to the Copper King but he was glad for the aid. his parents unfortunately didn't survive and he lost a good number of civilians to the illness. but it was cured, with the help of the Mother Tree and magic from the Crystal Cliffs, and he became King of Mezalea.
with the illness cured, visits started up again between Mezalea and the Ocean Empire, though there was a lot more time spent apart than together but he and Lizzie made it work. Jimmy sent messages and gifts between the couple, often getting some for himself, until of course Jimmy became of age and wanted to travel the world.
Joel and Lizzie saw Jimmy off - it never ceased to amaze him how his two best friends could turn into giant sea creatures that could wipe out a fleet of ships. they managed visits on their own and sometimes he got letters from Jimmy. the letters stopped for a time and Lizzie grew worried, worried enough that storms nearly threatened the kingdom - but then Jimmy finally wrote them again and things were okay, he was in a swamp settlement and the people were taking care of him.
he and Lizzie went out right away to see him and found him at home in the swamp amongst a bunch of fish-human hybrids. he watched as Lizzie lectured her brother then babied him, then helped set Jimmy up as the ruler of the swamp settlement - the Cod Empire. they left Jimmy sometime later but saw him again at the next Gathering.
Jimmy got on well enough with the other rulers, despite the cod head he wore, though Joel noticed some rulers picking on him. he helped Jimmy from time to time, just so his brother wouldn't be alone, but didn't worry too much since Lizzie wasn't worrying - she was extremely protective of Jimmy but if she wasn't stepping in, then there was no need to worry.
Joel had met many of the rulers when he was a child so he knew pretty much everyone there. the only ones he hadn't met before was Count fWhip of the Grimlands, Wizard Gem of the Crystal Cliffs, and King Joey of the Lost Empire. Gem was all right for a mage, he ended up becoming frenemies with fWhip due to the teasing of Jimmy, and Joey was just weird so he didn't really talk to him unless need be. he got to know Pix a bit more when Pix decided to ally himself with Lizzie and Jimmy, and he started calling the man "Copper Dad" since his main trade was copper.
Pixl
Pixl was found by a pair of miners in a cave beneath the sands and was taken back to a large desert village, nobody really knew where he had come from, only that he was gifted with visions of death - of those around him and of rulers of the kingdoms outside of the desert. the villagers thought him odd and a bad omen, at first anyway, because he always knew who would die next and would light a candle for them when they passed.
they accepted him after a time, once they realized that he wasn't actually the cause - he would preach to them about Lady Death sometimes and how she would care for their loved ones. everyone in the village had a hand in raising him, as well as raising other children which was their way - it takes a village to raise a child.
Pixl learned how to farm and mine and care for animals, and he learned to build. his first build, guided by his visions, was the Vigil - it stood tall in the center of the village and was home to 12 different colored candles - only two of which were lit - one for Elfking Scott of Rivendell and one for Queen Katherine of the Flower Fields. the rest remained untouched. these flames never went out and the villagers often questioned him about them - he told them that there will be 12 mighty rulers that would change the world, for better or worse he didn't know.
over the years, he continued building up the village, he watched over the Vigil as Prophet of Death, and started working with copper and trading it for other goods. the people began to go to him for help and looked up to him as a leader, they named him the Copper King - a new candle was lit for himself when he was crowned, something he hadn't known would happen.
he continued leading his people and made a few alliances with other kingdoms - with Queen Katherine and the King of Mezalea. there wasn't a lot of contact between the kingdoms other than the Gathering, of which, he never failed to go to. over the years, he watched rulers age and die and watched their heirs take over. it took a long time for him to meet the children who would one day have their candles lit.
the next candle to be lit was for Pearl of Smallholding, though, he didn't know who she was at the time, he didn't even meet her until many years later. the next few happen fairly quickly - Queen Lizzie of the Ocean Empire, King Joel of Mezalea, and a couple years later Dwarf King Sausage of Mythland - these three he had watch grow up through the Gatherings. shortly after Mythland, Wizard Gem took over as the ruler of the Crystal Cliffs - he had known the previous Wizard and through them, knew of their protégé. a year after Gem was her twin brother, Count fWhip of the Grimlands - a new kingdom that managed to rise up from its own sort of desert. a few years later was King Joey of the Lost Empire and Codfather Jimmy of the Cod Empire - Joey's kingdom had once been named Maztec but had been in hiding for so long that it lost its name. due to his alliance with Joel, Pix decided it best to ally himself with Lizzie and Jimmy as well, somewhat through association but mostly because he liked them.
one candle remains unlit and no matter how much Pixl prays, the answers as to why remain a mystery. he still watches over the Vigil and keeps a count of each rulers' deaths - for some reason, the 11 rulers are allowed to revive themselves every time they die. he finds this odd as well, and a bit concerning.

I got 25 asks that took me WAY too long to reply to! :}
I have two top favorite episodes, the cone snail episode and the beluga whales episode.
When it comes to my favorite part of both episodes..?
..Not happy parts...
I have absolutely no idea what you just suggested.
(Referring to this post)
Thank you! That was the intention. :} I was worried that their faces all looked weird..
You want to learn more? Man.. maybe I should post that headcannon draft..
Yeah haha, this blog has taken quite the U-turn hasn’t it? I’m just glad everyone seems okay with it so far. <:} I’m excited for season 5 also! I hope it comes out soon! :D
THANK YOU, I WILL CHERISH THIS LOVE YOU HAVE GIVEN ME FOREVER
Yes and no.
Does he think of his crew as children? Absolutely not. They are all fully grown, intelligent and capable adults, and he darn well treats them like it.
But you bet that if one of them is in danger or is frightened, he’s dropping everything he’s doing and rushing to their aid as if they’re his cub that just wondered out onto the highway.
ME TOO! I always felt like he had this fatherly vibe to him with some professionalism sprinkled on top. Like he’s always looking out for his team because he cares for them and worries about them, but its kind of disguised as him just doing his job as the Captain.
I plan to draw more Protective Barnacles because its my jam, so don’t worry! That side of you will have some more fuel soon XD. And thank you for all the compliments! :}
Daww thank you, it twaz nothin. I’m just glad that people want to see my art.
Well, taking everyone into consideration, the tallest is Captain Barnacles, and the shortest is Tomminow. (This little guy 👇)
The Vegimals aside though? Peso is the shortest.
(And thank you! I’m glad :})
Honestly? Awful. I feel like absolute garbage, I just hope this will all finally go away soon.
Not really no, and no thanks on the cookies, I shouldn’t eat anything until I get super hungry because everything gives me stomachaches.. But a hug would sure be nice right about now.
I can give you a link to their wiki pages if that’ll help, I’m not really good with my words and you can learn everything you need to know about them there. <:}
Captain Barnacles (The polar bear guy)
Kwazii (The orange pirate cat guy)
Peso (The bby Penguin doktor)
Shellington (Tall Otter boi)
Dashi (Doge girl with skirt)
Professor Inkling (Fancy squik)
Tweak (Green bunny country gal chick)
The Vegimals (Little veggie dudes)
All the Gups (Metal fishes)
The Octopod (Momma metal squik)
Whos the youngest Octonaut? Well, if we’re not including the Vegimals, I’d say its probably Peso. And the oldest is most likely Professor Inkling.
Does anyone have claustrophobia? Yes! Captain Barnacles canonically does. He got trapped in a deep hole in some icy caves as a cub, since then he’s been afraid of tight and closed in spaces. I have extended on that fact and thought of many different scenarios relating to the aftermath of the Octonauts movie, but you know.. still not confident in all this Octonauts stuff so I haven’t posted my headcannons yet. <:/
Novelas translated into English means Soap Opera.
You think so? I feel like that’s not Kwazii’s thing, he’d probably like horror movies and action filled movies. But Peso probably would like them not gonna lie, him and Dashi would probably watch them together.
Well, in my draft post I’ve got two headcannons for her so far.
Tweak likes sleeping in the launch bay for the #1 reason that she can hear the water sloshing around in the bay. Which mimics the sound the water in the swamp used to make when she lived there with her Dad.
Tweak gets bad migraines when she’s sick, so the other Octonauts have to do a lot to accommodate her. Because the beds in the med bay aren’t that soft, she prefers to sleep in her room when she’s sick. But then the usually comforting sounds of the water in the launch bay become pain inducing. So the launch bay is emptied of all its water, the lights are shut off and, unless its an emergency, no one is allowed in the launch bay until she recovers.
I looked it up, and its true.
KWAZII WAS A GIRL IN THE BOOKS?? THEN WHY IS HE A BOY IN THE SHOW?? WHY DID THEY CHANGE THAT?? WH??? I mean, don’t get me wrong, I like this Kwazii more than I would any other version of him, but still, WHY’D THEY CHANGE THAT?? IM GLAD THEY DID BUT WHY??
Hmm.. let me think...
Captain Barnacles most likely doesn’t ever have uninterrupted free time, and even when he does, he probably still prefers to be up in HQ where anyone can find him if they need him. But lets say for the sake of it that he has some free time and he takes it. He’d probably either want to play his accordion, or want to read a book.
I feel like there’s a lot of different things Kwazii likes to do in his spare time, but goofing around in the Gup-B is probably his favorite.
Peso probably likes to do puzzles and play his xylophone.
Dashi probably reads books while listening to music. How she does both of these things at the same time I have no idea.
Tweak probably plays video games.
Professor Inkling and Shellington both probably read books in their free time.
I’m not too sure what the Vegimals would do in their free time though..
Oh yes, indeed it does.
Before becoming the Captain of the Octonauts, Barnacles had to ask himself, “Am I really ready to be their leader?” Can he handle managing a team of that size? Can he react to situations fast enough and make the right choices? He thought it through and believed that yes. He was ready.
But he wasn’t. He wasn't prepared for that gut wrenching anxiety when one crew member goes missing. He wasn't prepared for the crippling heat that most everywhere else has compared to his home. He wasn't prepared to become so attached to his crew that the thought of something happening to them keeps him awake for nights in a row. He wasn’t prepared for that overwhelming nausea of missing home and his sister.
There was a lot he didn’t know. They’d all turn to him when something went wrong and ask if everything's going to be okay. He’d say “don’t worry, its all going to be okay.” but he’s just as unsure as everyone else.
Now don't get me wrong, he’s not this completely hopeless and unexperienced Captain that bit off more than he could chew, no. There’s just somethings he didn’t think about before becoming Captain of the Octonauts.
Now usually he can really keep himself composed almost always. He’s very level headed and very good at thinking his way through things, But sometimes? He just.. needs a break. He usually cant get a break because he’s the Captain and always needs to be alert, so everyone else that sees it usually tries to help.
Some crew members, like the Vegimals and Kwazii, have a habit of following the Captain around when they see that he’s tired to keep an eye on him. Others like Shellington and Dashi tend to give him space and keep things quiet for him. Some crew members, like Peso and Tweak tend to clean up around the place to take some weight off the Captains shoulders, they all help him out in some way.
Professor Inkling will sometimes find an excuse to pull him aside to have some tea with him. They’ll sit and talk for a bit but then he’s back up on his feet and back to work. This poor bear..
..hold on.. was this a drawing suggestion?
Dashi and Tweak would probably hang out in Dashi’s room and goof around. Not sure what they’d do.. maybe read, talk, play games or.. idk pillow fights? I don’t know what girls do on a girls night.
As for everyone else? I also am not sure, I don’t know what all those characters with all their clashing personalities would do on a boys night. Maybe they would all watch a movie? All attempt bake something obnoxious together? They seem like the kind of characters that would do that.
I’ve never been to a girls night or a guys night, so I don't really have much of a base to go off of.. but both groups would probably get together and do something they’d all enjoy. Guys maybe a funny movie, and the girls just talking and reading books? <:D
For real that’d be hilarious. Imagine if their voices were deep and gruff too but they just make them sound high pitched for fun?
Dude that’d be so funny. Like Kwazii’s up to his shenanigans again blabbering on about some sea monster or what have you, and Tunip out of nowhere just goes,
“Kwazii legit stop, we all know that you’re just talking about some ordinary sea creature that pirates interpreted as a sea monster.“
The whole crew gon be like
If this game existed in their world and they all played it.....
Captain Barnacles would make it through a pacifist run and would be satisfied. He’s some kind of weirdo who doesn’t think of characters as real people and doesn’t obsess over them and cry about them. Overall he thinks the game is pretty neat, but probably not his type of game.
Kwazii would want to test his skills by attempting a genocide, but his heart of gold would get in the way and he wouldn’t be able to complete it. He’d feel terrible for killing goat mom, reset and go hard pacifist next round. Overall he thinks the game is awesome.
Peso would want to talk to every character so they’d all be included in the story. He’d go full pacifist and cry over the story and its characters. Overall 10/10 for him.
Dashi would probably cry over the game a lot and would never attempt a genocide run because the characters are now her family.
Shellington would hate the fighting parts so would delay those bits by walking around and talking to characters over and over again.
Tweak would go through a neutral run because she sometimes accidently kills weaker monsters. Overall she loves the story and its characters, 10/10 would play again.
Professor Inkling would become invested in the story I bet. Complimenting the story arcs for the characters and its creative game play. But I feel like he’d only play it once and probably wouldn’t beat it, but would have fun with it none the less.
Thank you!!!♡♡♡ Man, I never expected such a positive response to switching to Octonauts, I cant believe everyone is so excited about it! I’m so glad you like my Octonauts art, that really makes me feel better and like what I’m drawing is worth while. ɷ◡ɷ
Aww I’m glad! And oh yeah, the animals at the end were always scary. Remember the Boo the spookfish?
Boo was a cute little googly eyed fishy boi who was just so sweet and somft until the creATURE REPORT AND I-
THAT’S MY QUE TO YEET THE COMPUTER
Dawww thank you!! I tried. <:}

I had a dream that Minion had an origin story.
The dream opened up with minion in a big fish bowl about 7ft tall and maybe 20ft wide with like a 7ft length but like it was an oval. Outside the ball in the air was his mother, she had the same minion type head but also had like a swamp monster body. She was kind of scary but had a kind smile. It was night and she was telling Minion that he was gonna do great things.
I remember being minion next, and I was feeling confused that I would one day have to leave the water to get to "level 20" where I would have a fully formed body like mother. I remember this as a flashback, and felt mild resentment at Megamind for keeping me small as just a head but then I remember that he didnt know any better.
There was a storm coming, a tsunami, and my (Minion's) mother took me from my large bowl and ran me through the streets to the boardwalk, she hugged me goodbye and (forgive me for breaking the somber tone here but) fuckin YEETED me into the sea. In the dream I was now Minions mom amd got to do the yeeting lol. Anyway, Minion's mom yeeted him to the sea saying that he would grow up big and strong there, and that his destiny would find him.
I don't know much more of the story from my dream; after that part I delrempt about other stuff but I think it would be kind of a cool concept if Minion could grow a body and be a fullt formed swamp man but maybe Megamind didn't know this. Maybe Minion has some reason for staying small. I'd like to think that in this story Megamind's society finds him on the other side of the ocean. Maybe catches him from the wild? Is minion the only of his species in the ocean? Or do they typically live on land like his mom? Is Minion the only one of his species before the olanet dies? If they can choose to stay fish size or grow into swamp people, how does this affect the different cultures of one species? How are they tied to Megamind's species? I will be chewing on these questions all day lol
Anyway, I know a lot of y'all on here are really good writers and are super creative so if u liked any part of this dream please,, I'm begging,, feel free to do whatever you like with it ^-^ As for myself,, maybe I'll mess around and try and write a mini fic, idk I usually don't write >.< but I'm feeling Inspired™

headcanons:
there were A LOT more members of The Gang back in the day. Most of them are dead. Kind of why so many of my characters are dead in canon, lbr this really is the Jimmy Show and the rest are just side-characters
little jake’s probably depressed, doesn’t realize
on the same note, jack has a lot of trouble sleeping
,jimmy liked fucking other peoples wives, if you asked him why he did this he’s tell you it was psychological warfare but really it was a power thing. also i said “liked” cos that would be pre zoe dying. when he comes back to new york, he sees sex as a waste of time, he has sex three times over the course of two years in the test-run novel thing i did.
that said, as a part two to the above, when he came back to new york after a while he did actually get into a pretty healthy relationship, right up until he ended up killing her dad
this isn’t really a headcanon, more just me relaying the characters history bc i don’t think it’s actually on this blog, but alex served in iraq
bruce goes on 4chan
not really a headcanon but i was watching this youtube video were they read out reviews of strip clubs or something and one of them said something like “and the bartender always has her derelict boyfriend hanging around” and how fucking good is derelict for a descriptor of a person. im deffo gonna use that at some point and u should too. it would make me very happy
jack and little jake play fifa on ps4 regularly
jack’s apartment is tiny, one bedroom, “spider”, his elusive room-mate, is meant to have the bedroom - hence why jack has a sofa-bed, but since Spider’s never around jack keeps all his clothes in there, in a big rumpled pile
molly has a lot of fairy lights in her bedroom
why have i never been interested in aus??? because everything is always canon forever. like, my marvel verse is just jimmy sometimes gets beat up by daredevil and that’s about the only difference
molly preferred weapon is an uzi, she also carries knuckle dusters
little jake bites his fingernails
jack regularly goes to the beach just to skim rocks. he also loves fishing but rarely gets a chance to do it. the americans don’t think twice about driving two hours but jack sure as hell does. he has tried fishing the hudson but it only served to depress him
oliver was a cowboy before he turned into a skinwalker. he was lost to the madness in the mountains. i’ll probs flesh this out a bit further if i ever write that spooky cowboy thing i’ve been wanting to
if u want jimmy to do something for u, money ain’t the way to get him to do it. he’ll usually ask for a favor
kayleigh’s killed a few people, but she never killed anyone before she moved to america, and she’s only ever done it in self defense/self preservation -- she has also killed to save the lives of members of the gang
satan can be killed, but a person couldn’t do it
jimmy will smoke meth don’t test him
brad really fooled dmitri into thinking he was an ally. took him fucking years to gain his trust. rasputin saw straight through him and tried to choke him to death.
jimmy’s default ringtone is sex noises, but he usually has his phone on vibrate
mollys apartment is shitty on the outside but really nice inside. she’s never moved, but always put her money into doing up her apartment.
im heavy regretting calling molly molly because she loves molly and it feels weird having american characters say ecstasy instead of molly so that the sentences dont read like molly loves molly. like i called her molly cos she loves molly. i fucked it.
its been so fucking hot here the past couple days why am i melting
buck has a boxing name but idk what it is. was thinking buck the bruiser but that’s kinda shit
all my characters have a severe case of swamp ass
bruce talks to himself a lot.
bruce loves the cheesecake donuts from dunkin donuts. spends a lot of time down there with crooked cops
been thinkin a lot about space lately and how big things are. been thinkin a lot about trees
i have no idea how im gonna do it but i have a swamp monster character called flower and i really want to rp her but like it’s annoying cos i can see what she looks like and there’s nothing i could icon that would even come close. could maybe icon the swamp-thing tv series but like,,,, it ain’t right

20, 27, 35, 40, 50, 59, 67, 88 for All Eight Characters (one each but if you wanna go Hog Fucking Wild feel free)
Alright so. I’m not going hog wild but! I decided to do two guys per question, one who was my first gut instinct for that question, and then one random character to spice things up! Do some character building in a direction I might not have thought to go, you know?
Also bro this got so long so just. Putting it. Under a read more because I do respect your time and dashboard.
20. How would your character define love? Caspian: Love is when people stop to listen to you. When they smile when they see you, and sneak you an extra dessert when no one is looking. Love is being willing to bend the rules to make you happy, teaching you to hold your head up high even when you’re getting in trouble, and telling you to always look the world right in the eye when it wants you to back down. Love is giving up whatever you have to without a second thought for the other person’s sake, and knowing they would do the same for you. Love is taking the lessons they taught you, carrying them in your heart, swallowing your fear and setting out to bring them home. Ryker: Love is fleeting, and fickle, and fragile. Love is at best a luxury and more realistically a bargaining chip. It’s real, sure, but its primary use is to blind people to what’s hidden behind it. Some people may get lucky, but only a fool would bet on those odds. ...if you are lucky enough to find it, though, hold on tight. Real love, genuine, honest, reciprocated love, is worth doing anything for. The people you care about should know how you feel by what you do, not by what you say. Show love with discretion, but show it fiercely.
27. How much have they given up to get to where they are in life, willingly or unwillingly? How much do they think they would give up to get to where they want to be, in the future? Raini: Raini I think is super interesting because I think she’s given up a fair bit, and she’s completely fine with the sacrifices she did make because she decided the benefits outweighed whatever she had to give up to get it. But on the other hand, giving something up unwillingly? Having something taken from her? Absolutely a cause for retribution at any cost. idk if I’m explaining the difference in a way that makes sense, but that distinction means the world to Raini because, even if the sacrifice is hard to swallow, at least she was in control of it. And like, the whole premise of the campaign is giving up shit! Giving up everything! And was it willing at the time? Yes! But coming out on the other side of it and not remembering making the decision and, quite frankly, not agreeing with the decision you made is rough! You’re yourself, you know because you’re you, but you’re also not yourself because that’s the whole point of what you did, so did you really do this? Was it someone else in a body you now inhabit? What happens to this new you when you regain your old memories, because there’s no way in hell you don’t at least try to get them back? It’s a lot to think about!! And that, and the core of this question, is why Raini doesn’t let this end without a Wish to restore the memory of whoever wants it. I don’t think she sees erasing them the first time as a decision “she” necessarily made -although whether that’s a philosophical issue or one of diverting guilt is open for debate- so she wants to reclaim what she sees as having been taken from her unwillingly. Pip: Tbh, the plot and premise of Strahd aside, Pip has lived a pretty charmed life. He fucked up plenty, but he always seemed to manage to stumble his way into where he needed to be when he needed to be there. Honestly, even within the module things didn’t go too badly for him! He lost a good friend at one point, and nearly died in that same fight, but other than that he fared pretty well. The biggest thing he’s given up in his life was his place in his home village, but honestly it’s like 50/50 on whether that was willingly or unwillingly. Like, he feels bad about the accidental arson? But also. It kinda kicks ass that he did then just like. Leave and it was fine. With his campaign over, I don’t really have much in the way of future goals for him! He’s just. He’s just fucking vibing. You know? So! Seems like he’s getting out of giving up anything in the future.
35. What is their most prized possession? If they have one that is. Ryker: For sure have talked about this before: it’s his hammers. He has two enormous hammers that he fights with, named Last Chance and Misery’s End. They’re sturdy orc made weapons with their names hammered into the side of each head in orc, that have been passed down from clan leader to clan leader for generations. They hit well, they don’t do much else, but when you’re regularly shattering knees, ribs, and skulls, what else do you need them to do? They’re sturdy, practical weapons. Reliable, and they remind him of home. He’s more comfortable putting his life in their hands than anything -or anyone- else’s. Brilliance: Her armor! For several reasons: 1. She paid extra to have it enchanted so that it repels dirt and blood and grime. After crawling through cult sewers to clear out some nasty boys, Brilliance decided that never again was she going to spend her short rest having to wipe blood or shit off her nice armor. When she upgraded to splint mail, she absolutely forked out that Armor of Gleaming enchantment. 2. Her shield specifically was decorated by her fiancee! Sienna likes to paint, and when Brilliance first got her shield for guard duty at the church Sienna took it upon herself to get out her paints and paint on a wreaths of vines and roses and birds and other lovely things, so that her love could always have a piece of her with her 💖
40. Do people expect a lot from your character or look up to them for something? Why or why not? Ayen: Unfortunately, Ayen is baybe. And even though she hasn’t outright told anyone how old she is, it’s becoming rapidly apparent that. Hey? They might have figured it out. It’s literally inconceivable how they could have pieced it together though?? I mean, how does anything about her not read as completely mature and put together elf woman thank you I’m an elf?? So, no. I don’t think anyone looks up to her. And that’s okay!! Yes she is a young adult with her own set of skills and her own value to add to the world and the people around her, but she would not thrive in a position of leadership like she thinks she would. She needs time to mellow out and settle down, and to learn how to make decisions quickly and responsibly. I think, one day, she’ll be able to show a lot of people how to do a lot of good. For now, though, she’s happy trotting along after Dad and rowing her and her new friend around in circles in a row boat, just because it’s fun to mess around sometimes. Auriga: Interesting question! Interesting question. I think in the collective sense, as part of the Court of Stars, definitely yes. They’re the rulers! They guide their people through the knowledge and wisdom accumulated over the course of millennia! I think Auriga specifically even is seen as having a closer connection to this wealth of knowledge, being a cleric and all. But I am toying with the thought that outside of the context of the council and the court, the people that make it up don’t have as much weight? There’s still respect of course! But while one star shining on its own is all well and good, without the context of those around it how are you meant to learn from what it has to say to you? Auriga understands this, it’s just part of their culture, and he’s in no way troubled by it. It’s the way things are meant to be, and so they will continue to be until it is clear that something needs to change!
50. What’s their earliest memory? Auriga: Now full warning this is going to be a lot less detailed than Cog’s is just because I know him less, but I think Auriga earliest memory is something sweet and warm like. Sitting in one of his older sibling’s laps (while he’s the Baby of the family!) and just. Dozing against their chest while the rest of them sit in front of a roaring fire and just talk. He doesn’t remember a word of what was said, he just remembers being little and held and loved. Their family mostly interacts in the council room, I think, because when things get busy with ruling it’s so easy to just fall into work and let family time fall by the wayside. But when things get stressful, when he realizes he hasn’t interacted with his brothers or sisters outside their meetings in a while, I think this is one of the memories that comes to mind and encourages him to set aside whatever he’s reading and go off to be intentional about spending time with his brothers and sisters :) Cog: One of her earliest memories was when her magic first manifested! She was maybe six or seven, and Mama was busy at church and Daddy had gone out to check on some of the folks that lived a bit further out from town, and baby Cog was bored to tears. She knew she wasn’t supposed to leave home alone!! But there were some Cool Older Kids she wanted to impress, and they were going to sneak out and explore the swamp. They were big kids! They were like thirteen! Surely, nothing bad could happen if there were big kids with her! So she followed them out of town, and by the time they noticed their tag-along it would have been Way too much work to take her back home. Whatever. It’s fine. They start poking around the edge of the swamp, looking at weird fish and bugs and poking at mushrooms or whatever kind of shit grows in swamps. Probably getting eaten alive by mosquitos. Well! Cog is having a grand old time playing with frogs and cattails, and she’d wandered off from the teenagers she was supposed to be staying with. She was up to her calves in the brackish water trying to recapture a frog that escaped her when she looked up to see a long, thin shape darting through the water straight for her. It was a cottonmouth, mutated by the Wasteland and nearly as big as she is. It hissed as it closed the distance between them, mouth open wide as it readied itself to lunge and sink its fangs into her. Cog screamed and threw her arms up to protect herself- And then there was a burn of something wild and unfamiliar in her chest, a warm hand on her shoulder, and a flash of light so blinding that people swore later they could see it from town. Cog stood there for a moment, frozen and trembling, but when she gathered the courage to open her eyes everything within five feet of her was scorched clean, and the corpse of the snake that had charged her was bobbing, almost completely unrecognizable, in the water in front of her. Mama was furious with her when they made it back home, of course, but after hearing what happened? After hearing that Cog had finally managed to channel a spell, some rudimentary form of Word of Radiance? Well, there were much, much more pressing things to worry about, all of a sudden.
59. Have they ever had an encounter with someone that changed their whole life? Cog: HA Morgan opened up a can of “Talk About Ace” SOUP and folks it’s fucking lunchtime. Drink up assholes!!! I know I’ve talked about this a hundred times but I’ll never be sick of it: they’re JUST such good friends and they’ve been so so good for each other. Before they met, Cog was in a place in her life where she felt trapped and perpetually anxious, and Ace was restless and angry at the world. Neither of them felt like they could measure up to the expectations other people had for them, and Cog had turned that worry self-destructively inward while Ace had turned it outward. Ace’s straining at his leash brought him to Lafaroh, and Cog’s -at the time, Charlotte’s- soft heart had her defying direct orders to slip up to this stranger and warn him that he needed to leave before he got hurt. And Ace looked at Charlotte, at the genuine worry on her face for someone she’d only just met. And he looked at the town around them, at the way the people who passed by looked at him and how that look shifted from suspicion to shock and outrage when they saw Charlotte with him. And he did some math, and he realized whatever the hell was going on in this podunk town was a thousand times more interesting than anything that would ever happen back in New Alexandria proper. So of course, he settles in to pry. Charlotte, bless her, has many, many strengths; reading into people’s intent is not one of them. So when Ace starts asking questions, she’s happy to answer to impress upon him how important it is that he goes home! And the more she talks, the easier it is to just... keep talking? This man, this stranger from the Academy, is talking to her, listening to her like nobody ever has. And more than that, he actually seems to care! He has no reason to care that she’s worried she won’t be able to step up the way she knows her mom wants her to, but he’s clearly concerned and invested in her story. And even though she’s trying to keep things vague, she’s never been very good at deceiving people. Pieces start to fall in place, Charlotte lets more slip than she means to, and by the time they’ve been talking for an hour or so Ace has a pretty good picture of what’s going on here. It’s not safe here, not for him and certainly not for her, so he doesn’t even stop to consider whether it’s an offer he can make when he holds out his hand, both literally and figuratively, and tells her he can take her back to the Academy with him. And to Charlotte, who less than an hour ago had been weighing her odds of surviving the Wasteland alone if she ran away on her own, the door this man just opened to her? The way he’s reaching back through it to offer her a hand, to pull her through to a better, safer life? How can she say no? They fought their way out of Lafaroh that day. Charlotte almost certainly wanted to try to slip out unnoticed, but they’d already attracted too much attention by letting townspeople see them talking. Charlotte goes home to quickly pack, and she doesn’t come back out of the house. Ace waits, and the sun starts to set, and she still hasn’t come back out. Something isn’t right. He knocks on the door: there’s no answer. He knocks again, louder. Then again. Finally, an angry looking man opens the door and starts to tell Ace to get lost, but there’s clear sounds of arguing inside coming from just out of view of the doorway. The man is big, but Ace is fast enough to duck inside and around the corner in time to see Charlotte struggling to get around a woman who looks strikingly like her in order to make a break down the stairs and toward the door. The next several seconds are messy and disjointed; no one expects someone in high level caster robes to take the staff off their back and start attacking with it, but the next thing Charlotte knows Ace has her hastily packed bag slung over one shoulder, has planted her firmly behind himself, and is holding her hand with one of his own while he levels his staff at her parents with the other. His voice is calm but hard as he explains that they’re leaving, because Charlotte made it clear that she isn’t safe or happy here. If they try to stop them, Ace can and will bring the full force of New Alexandria’s wrath down on their tiny, shitty town. He’s going to take Charlotte away, find her a place in the Academy, and they’re not going to say a word. And so they leave! With all of Lafaroh absolutely seething behind them, with Charlotte gripping Ace’s hand as tight as she can and willing her own not to shake, they set out together into the Wasteland and, ultimately, to New Alexandria. I have Such a vivid mental image of the two of them camping out in the Wasteland the night before they made it back to New Alexandria, with the lights of the city just peeking over the horizon in front of them. They’re eating dinner over a fire Ace made Such a show of lighting with magic instead of the tinderbox one of them definitely had, and they’re talking about names Charlotte could use in New Alexandria because she’d quietly admitted earlier that day that the name “Charlotte” has so much baggage that she doesn’t want to carry anymore. And Ace, while he is trying to help, is also a dork. He’s throwing out every name that pops into his head, good or not, trying to see if he can get her to laugh at one of them. They spend a few minutes talking, Ace muses aloud over “Charlotte Olivia Grace” a few times, looking for some cute nickname he can pull out of a name like that. And then he pauses, and sits up, and looks at Charlotte, and nods. The suggestion that she go by “Cog” makes her laugh, but that’s a good thing. Ace is grinning too because some dumb shit he said finally got a smile of out Charlotte for the first time since they left her shithole town. She’s sort of laughing in spite of herself, and it eases some of the heaviness that’s been hanging over them the last few days, but after considering it for a moment? She loves it. Taking the name she was given, and making it her own in a way she knows her parents would hate? It feels good! She’s grinning ear to ear when she turns to Ace and nods in agreement. “Cog” it is. “Charlotte” dies in the Wasteland that night; Cog enrolls in the Academy the next day. In Cog’s eyes, Ace’s intervention literally saved her life. She went from being a scared little girl in the middle of nowhere with no future beyond the ramshackle walls of her small town, to an incredibly promising up and coming student of the Academy. She went from being told that the only use her magic had was what it could do for the Church, to blowing away professors who expected her to barely be able to manage a cantrip and being praised for her intuitive understanding of magic. And for Ace! Cog was the first person his actions truly, directly helped. He saw a problem, he stepped in, he fixed in. In a slow moving, insular city like New Alexandria, that wasn’t something he’d been able to do before. He saw how the good he’d done in helping Cog reflected and redoubled in the way she treated the people around her, and saw her making the choice to be kind not in spite of but because of everything she’d been through growing up. Bro like Ace’s character bio says “self-appointed big bro to Cog” and “he sent a letter to Cog thanking her for being a positive influence in his life”. This question got SO out of control as I wrote my Cog and Ace fanfic but! They deserve it! AND the party is going back to New Alexandria next session, so!! More Ace content soon folks stay tuned! Raini: Did you think I ran out of soup?? Did you think lunchtime was over? FUCK you! This is MY blog and I’ll wax poetic about my dnd characters and their friendships for as LONG as I want to! And there’s nothing you can do to stop me!!!!! Now this one in fairness probably won’t be as long as Cog’s was, just because I know that all the people who follow me are like. Actively in the campaign and various group chats where we discuss how important our characters are to each other. But do NOT make the mistake of assuming it’s because I love you any less. I love you so much. Yes homo. Where do we start? At the beginning, with our lizard. Y’all ever uh. Y’all ever met a dipshit lizard who you’re pretty sure you can trick into taking you adventuring but plan to ditch the second they become deadweight (i.e. whenever they go down for the first time, probably), except then you became like best friends and siblings by all but blood and you realize you’d rip the world in half for them without them even asking and you can’t even begin to imagine how you’d reconcile the hole they’d leave in your life if they left it? Have you ever slowly realized that you’re adding “except for him” at the end of every generally grumpy statement you make about the world? And then realized even more slowly after years of friendship that somehow the bastard managed to extend “except for him” to “except for them”, and you’re so much less disengaged from and disinterested in the world around you? Y’all ever had that happen to you?? Shit’s wild. And then. Y’all ever met a fucking cop who clearly has, like. An actual metric ton of baggage she’s refusing to even glance in the direction of? And at first, it’s a pain to have to circumvent her “morals” in order to get shit done. Honestly, it’s kind of always a pain. But even your crotchety ass has to admit there’s something about sticking so firmly to your guns regardless of the situation you’re put in that’s admirable, that the world would be a much better place if more people had that same iron will and a refusal to be moved. Even if they’re standing up for stupid shit, at least they’re standing up for something. And maybe you take some of that resolve and tuck it away in your chest, to give you something to grip onto when you need to dig in your heels and refuse to let the world knock you around. And then. Y’all ever met a druid who burns with an anger you, honestly, kind of understand? Who wants to be more than the world wants her to be so badly, in a way that you definitely understand? Have you ever gotten to watch over the course of weeks and months as she time and again made the choice to take that anger and that drive and point it at things that would hurt the people she cares about? By god, she’s leaving her mark on the world, and she’s doing that by burning the shit out of it. But, without fail, there’s always a circle of uncharred, untouched ground around each and every party member. And when you notice this pattern, you can’t stop yourself from noticing it again, and again. And you learn: sometimes, you’re angry at the world. Sometimes! You’re angry at your party members! But that anger points outward. Always, and unequivocally. You have your friends’ backs, even if you’re furious with them. And then you meet a fish and you learn that sometimes things just need to be hit a lot of time in a row, really hard, with a big fucking hammer. Okay but you meet this fish who, somehow, despite being monotone and weird and a fish and clearly an outsider to like. Land culture? Which you guess is a thing, apparently. Despite all of that, they have an emotional intelligence that’s off the fucking charts. And quite frankly! For a long time, it makes you really, really uncomfortable! If you don’t tell somebody how you’re feeling, and you don’t, then they shouldn’t be able to figure it out. But, slowly, you start to see the value of it. Your lizard is upset about something, and they won’t tell you what, but you’re able to squint at them and slowly figure it out so you can fix it. A few days later a joke a party member makes rubs you the wrong way, and you swallow your pride enough to admit it and they just. Apologize? Just like that? They promise not to say it again? And fish expressions are so hard to read, but you can just Tell that they’re over there looking smug, the bastard. But while you’re definitely not ready to commit to this being a daily thing you can, begrudgingly, admit that you can see the benefits of “communicating” with the people around you.
67. What was the most acidic remark your character’s ever given to someone? And their reaction? Brilliance: In like our third session, our warlock had disguised himself as a “beautiful woman” in order to flirt with the guy we were there to talk to to get information out of him (Note: They did not ask Brilliance, at any point, if she was willing to flirt with him instead. She would not have been, but they could have at least asked). So Brilliance was hanging out at the bar near this dude’s private booth while the warlock chatted him up, and when the warlock got up to leave the dude reached out to try and grab her arm. He missed, but Brilliance was on his ass in a second with her sword out like “If you had grabbed her hand, you would have lost your own. She’s not interested in you; let her leave.” He thought it was funny and kept calling Brilliance “sweetheart”, but I did get to put my sword through his gut before the end of the night SO. Who’s the real winner? Ayen: I rolled Ayen for this one and I want to respect that and not cop out, but I don’t think it’s super in her nature to snark at people. She’s just gonna tell you like straight up that you’re a dickhead, and that’s that. I think the only time we might get to snarking is if someone (Dad, a party member, etc.) said “leave it alone” and Ayen is Not Done. She might send some parting shots over her shoulder then, like a “You’re lucky I like this guy so much, or we wouldn’t be done here” or “Show your face again when my dad’s not around, if you’ve got the balls.”
88. Assuming they aren’t one already would your character prefer to be a Vampire, a Werewolf, or a Demon? Pip: Potentially a cop out! However. A little..... vampire frog? Hello Mr. Strahd. Are we friends now? Could be a vampire! We have seen that vampires are cool and hot and powerful if perhaps a little amoral but that’s okay, because they’re cool and powerful. Caspian: I literally spent fucking forever looking at this because. She literally worships and derives her Sun Soul monk shit from Pelor, the god of the sun. So like! How the fuck you gonna be a vampire or a werewolf with that going on. Dude hates the undead too, so vampire struck out twice. Demon’s iffy too, because it very much goes against the whole “good aligned” thing she has going on. So I guess?? Werewolf is the least offensive?? She’ll just pray and hope Pelor is like. Cool. With it. Haha? Also objectively, a werewolf that worships the god of the sun is VERY funny so there is that.

I swear to goodness i just wanna sleep but every time i close my eyes after 12am my brain is like INSPIRATION!!! IDEA!! anyway I'm loosing my mind and I'm gonna write down my idea below it’s for a top down video game.
Okay so if i had the prowess in unity i would wand to make a top down, pixel art, stardew-esque game. You would be able to farm, marry people, dungeon crawl, gather, and idk maybe collect critters. The big change from stardew would be that it’s INCREDIBLY rpg, and magic oriented. it would be what rune factory is to harvest moon.
The setting would be 2 towns that you can choose from, one on a mountain top and one in a lowland biome (swamp desert savanah valley river idk yet) in-between these two towns would be a magical rift, full of power, mythical items, and GLORY!! these towns have an intense age old rivalry to find the mysteries within the rift. There is also a festival grounds deep in the woods, far south of the rift.
Story
You are a wandering traveler, passing through (area name) All of a sudden you are jumped by the mayors of the two towns and their assistants. They mistake you for a great warrior that was rumored to be in the area. They explain the rift and both beg for your help, they want you to face the first rift boss, and they both offer you land in their prestigious towns for your help. If you try to deny their claims they will tell you to not be modest, and if you deny to help they’ll ask you to pleassseeee help and if you say no again you get a game over cutscene. After accepting one offer they lead you to the rift, on the way you meet a lesser enemy to learn battle mechanics, and then meet the boss at the opening of the rift. you loose the fight, and when things look most bleak the warrior they were talking about jumps into the frey and manages to push it back into the rift. While they are fighting the mayor you make a deal with takes pity on you and drags your body to their town hospital. After you awake in the hospital the mayor admits they were desperate and they were sorry for forcing you into that situation. Since you technically faced the monster they agree to uphold the deal and give you the local abandoned farm yay!! The goal of the game at this point is to face every boss in the rift and bring glory to your village. You learn farming mechanics over the next couple days for raising money for armor, weapons, and items. More story paths open up when you face more bosses in the rift, but at this point you have free reign if all you want is a farming/dating sim.
Rift mechanics
Each floor is randomly generated with materials and lesser enemies. every 10th floor is a boss, and every 5th floor is a mini-boss that you can skip if you run past them really fast but they drop good stuff. The 1st 10th floor boss unlocks a story event and the 2nd 10th floor boss unlocks a new zone of the rift and repeats. The story can be skipped but some things you will be unable to return to if you commit actions that make them impossible to finish. The fighting style will be like in stardew valley but with 2 moves you can learn and interchange in your home like dash, punch, kick, scream, lock pick, and others. You also have a weapon or staff that will be your main attack button. When you leave a boss area after you killed a boss you can “carve a path” to the surface if you want to which allows you to return to that area from the rift mouth. There is a bottom to the story rift, but after completing the main story path a hole rips into the bottom floor and an endless cave of magic opens for end-game items and materials. I would also plan on having a +1 either bringing a marriage candidate or a farm creature to help you fight. Letting them die will lower hearts and cause a sick day for them but they will be okay.
Town/dating/friendship
There will be 2 towns and both of them have a different culture. They will have different festivals, and aesthetic items. You can unlock another town’s festivals if you max friendship with the mayor, and become good friends with one other villager of that town, but if it is contest based you will not be able to enter the contest. You of course can enter any festival from the town you chose. You can also date/marry any marriage candidate regardless of their town but its a pain to visit both towns every day, so it's better to have them in the same town as you. The candidates will all be humanoid but the fantasy setting i am imagining allows for like elves, werwolves, mermaids, fairies, and other magic beings along with humans. The dating/friendship process will be just like stardew, talk, gift, raise friendship, heart events. After a certain amount of heart points they will randomly approach you when they are in leasure time, and give you gifts. After officially dating you can lead them to other areas after asking, and after marriage you can bring them into the dungeons to help fight. Certain areas will raise hearts and others will lower. also befriending everyone will have benefits because if 2 villagers have specific heart levels they will have a cutscene. I think i would also like to have rival marriages but idk if that would limit the player or not. also ofc gay is allowed and maybe limited poly.
Farming
There will be regular plants and magic plants to grow. magic plants are useful for items but dont sell for much, while regular plants sell for more but can only make food when crafted. a very end game item allows you to turn any item into a seed and it will grow into 2 items of the seed. basically stardew/harvest moon farming mechanics. As mentioned previously animals on the farm can be companions in the rift, and they will also create animal products. You can also get a cat and a dog along the story. I would like to have special objects for like growing mushrooms, and blessing trees. Idk lots of little different farming mechanics.
Other activities
You can gather in the path to the rift and the path to the festival. Each town has different seasonal collectables. Fishing exists but it will be like harvest moon and have no mini game. Bug catching will also exist, one town will have a bug enthusiast and the other will have a fish enthusiast. You can turn in fish/bugs for money and cosmetic items. There will be 2 godly spirits that watch over their own town and you can interact with them if you want to. They will be a part of the extra dungeon story. There will also be a vengeful ghost that has a secret, they can be a marriage/friendship candidate or you can defeat them. Also the towns will have a yearly competition in the festival grounds together. each year the festival season will be randomized and each season will have its own competition.
#game idea#hhhh#wanted to talk about it i might design some of the characters because i already have ideas and i love them#THE KNIGHT IS GOOD#or the warrior i called them#they are nonbinary and they join your rival town as a marriage candidate#they find they LOVE farming life and want to live the rest of their life kindly and peacefully#they are still a badass skilled fighter they just found that they love their chickens and want you to know they love their chickens#also gives you some eggs because helping each other is good

overworld hostile mobs: rated by a dumbass
gonna put this under a cut bc its gonna be.... long
Zombie
Obviously the most vanilla of them all, a classic, learned how to climb ladders when i was 12 and infiltrated my treehouse fortress. was not impressed. I dont have any strong negative emotions towards them.... theyre just ugly little men who make noises outside my house at 2am... 7/10
Skeleton
these boys are less valid than zombies. Im what the kids like to call a melee fighter so anyone with long ranged attacks is my mortal enemy. mostly my feelings toward them are the same as zombies, classic, but also actually i dislike them a little more so 6/10
Spider
spiders are.... how do i say.... very good? so like other than the obvious ‘they jump at you and are Very Dangerous’ during the day time theyre just like little friends who hang out with you!

HEy whered that damage come from... also the drowned with tridents? Fuck them.. I hate them.. theyre like skeletons (long ranged attack, very bad) but so much worse. who thought it’d be a good idea to add them??? fuck that person.. i was once thousands of blocks away from my base and also in the middle of an ocean exploring and one of them killed me and i lost Everything that i had with me. 5.5/10
Husk
um idk... these dry bitches just out here.. doing shit.. idk i dont go to deserts at night very often. i actually didnt know they were a thing so... 5/10
Guardians/The Elder Guardian
much like husks i have limited experience with these boys. I dont like them tho.. they stop me from entering the water monuments and thats like trying to stop your cat from putting its face in your food. theyre also very scary and just kill squids and turtles like thats so rude. 2/10
Vindicator
once again, limited experience and my only experience was Very Bad. my friends and i spent ages befriending cartographers to get a map to find a woodland mansion and to start of it spawned near lava so it was just burning down when we got there so theres that.. the vindicators were merciless just coming at us, we were on fire and being attacked by them. not a great time. 1/10

Eden-6!!
I am. so fucking tired. but I’m also late asf for Eden-6 stuff to the point it got its video release, so here I am playing catch up.
tl;dr: swamp planet!! we get some cool shots of Alitair and Aurelia, i, surprise surprise, still do not trust mr. wainwright, i tried to form an argument that these ruins we see across the planet are abandoned Atlas facilities/ships, but ~who knows~. also i would (and probably will) die for the saurians. i love them so much. one of them has a funky bone hat. it’s great. also also “stop the CoV before they gain control” [looks at trailers and behind closed doors intro] ... uh oh gamers...
“A backwater swampland of a planet, and family home of the Jakobs clan. Eden-6 is covered by lush greenery and stagnant waters, dotted with occasional settlements and the rusted hulks of crashed spaceships. Civilization has never fully taken hold here, and indigenous dangers including ravenous Saurians and semi-sentient Jabbers effectively rule the planet. As if you didn't already have enough to worry about, the Children of the Vault have a presence here as well.”
im excited for the abandoned spaceships, those things look fucking bad. ass.
Ambermire I am guessing is one of the more swampy areas? Jakob’s Manor is obvious, and Fort Sunshine I’m guessing is that abandoned facility we’ve been seeing around the trailers. unfortunately we don’t get too good of a look at the fortress (shakes fist at gearbox) but we do get some other stuff!
im gonna go over the instagram video first because the pics are a treat so we’re saving them for last.
sorry for the progress bars btw lol
i fucking love that gas giant. so much.
swamps are one of my least favorite biomes, but i know gearbox is going to make me love it.
also a look at one of the crashed ships! (i assume) looks like Atlas to me. Or old Hyperion, but tbh idk why Hyperion would be on Eden-6. so Atlas it is.
a look at one of the settlements. i really love the contrast between this planet and Promethea and Athenas.
those gross pod things on the right? idk if they’re egg sacs or plants or what but i both hate them and love them. also whatever that is glowing on the bottom left. i wanna touchy
Jakobs manor!! honestly a lot less extravagant in the front than i was expecting. also now we know this one shot
is definitely not in front of Jakobs Manor. could be the back entrance or smth tho. looks like it leads into a garden-y area.
my question is, is it a Jakobs thing to enjoy hunting? because it seems like it’s a Jakobs thing to enjoy hunting. also i don’t trust Jakobs. I know I’ve said that, like, a bajillion times, but i don’t. and those metal cowboy-lookin’ robots are totally theirs.
im just surprised the Hammerlocks are living in the Manor. I assumed they were like... visiting. now im pretty convinced mr. wainwright down here is evil because only Alistair is on Sanc-III and we’re all assuming that the Sanc-III demo (not the more recent one) takes place after Athenas, right?
and OMG YES lilith’s tattoos aren’t visible in the newest video on sanc-iii!! im hoping that means she gets her powers back!! im giddy to look over it 30 times i cannot wait. but one post at a time.
evil. evil man.
he either dies or he’s evil i don’t trust him and hammerlocks eye shouldn’t be red in the We Are Mayhem trailer i just... im so suspicious of this man.
AURELIA i love her so much. she was great in TPS, one of my mains. her new outfit is popping, i love the boots.
also she has 2 ice diadem shards now and im terrified yet oddly happy for her.
ALISTAIR. i legitimately thought he was on Promethea at first, then i realized this is probably part of the abandoned facility/fortress. shame we don’t get a closer look at it.
also look who’s eye is back to being not-red again!
also the writing on the back there makes me even more convinced this is Atlas facility. on Promethea, the parts of the Meridian city are labeled with these unique symbols (so far i’ve seen blue and red) and this red one looks like it fits the mark perfectly.
these look like the same canisters from the mine on Pandora. whatcha pumpin eden-6?
more red plants. i like how different this can look from athenas, yet still have very similar foliage. outstanding move, gearbox.
is that another crashed ship in the background??? yes pls. also this dude’s face paint is giving me huge Mask of Mayhem vibes, I love it.
the inside of Jakobs Manor
i hate to tell you this mr. gearbox sir but im pretty sure they do
yeesh.
also that one scene of troy in the manor as well
dis one
is that the globe in the background? anyone know? im trying to remember where the fuck ive seen that shot of the library/globe. hmmmmmmmmmm
it is not the globe whump whump. i am excited to explore this library tho.
what looks like fishing net on the right? wild
also car!!
no wings/fins like in the Mask of Mayhem trailer tho, that sucks.
i like this dude. especially his face paint.
i like this glowing crystals even more tho
purple crystals that mimic troy’s red ones? me likey.
eridium? maybe! slag to chug when u need more power? maybe! i don’t know!

also check that glowy light in the background. totally Atlas.
also also i like they have little hanging nest/house things. those are really cute.
this motherfucker is coming at us with a sledgehammer ffs
i like their tiger stripe designs. they blend in with the leaves, which i guess is an evolutionary advantage all things considered.
I LOVE THESE FUNKY LITTLE MOTHERFUCKERS
LOOK AT THIS DUDE!!! HE’S GOT A BONE HAT! I LOVE HIM!!!
AND THEY FUCKING BREATHE FIRE??
GLOWING YELLOW EYES!!!
A SPLIT JAW! WHO DOESN’T LOVE THESE LITTLE DUDES???
i fucking love Saurians holy shit
okay okay okay okay
picture time 😎
i love the skybox on Eden-6, holy shit it’s beautiful. also, those sacs/plants/fungi or whatever are definitely volatile.
look at that one glowing red one. that’s totally going to deal some fuckin fire damage to whatever touches it and i for one am ready
also.
can we get an F in chat for Eden-6? lmao i remember being like ‘oh look a gas giant’ in my analysis of every museum of mayhem piece and COMPLETELY FORGETTING that eden-6 has a gas giant directly beside it. big brain fart there.
holy shit i love the color schemes for these things. i know there are blue ones as well, but these orange/yellow/red ones are FANTASTIC. i especially love the shiny yellow ones. they’re so pretty!!
we also get a mostly obscured window in the back there
possibly part of the abandoned facility? but more than likely just part of a crashed ship.
like (im assuming) this one!
the doors match up to Sanctuary-III quite well. also the bones on the ground. i love the regrowth aesthetic they’ve got going on here.
also apparently ratches have made their home here. these things are fuckin everywhere. they’re like the new rakk holy shit
MY BEAUTIFUL BOYS
look at the one on the bottom right! those blue markings are fuckin stunning and i love the little fins on the sides of his head
and that giant skeleton in the background? that’s some good shit right there! im hoping those are fireflies/some sort of glowing insect around the front there. so we can have pockets of glowing orbs dancing around the map as we explore.
oooo
i really like the hulls of the ships, the one on the far left and the one in the back right.
im mostly interested in this tree. i wonder if it just regrew around some debris or if this is making the stuff on this planet grow wildly out of control. I’m always down for science gone wrong! and with atlas, pretty much anything could go horribly wrong. that’s just their way of doing things.
anyway it is 4 in the am and i am tired, so im gonna pass tf out now and hopefully do Fl4k’s trailer, and a few other posts i gotta catch up on, tomorrow! so hyped for fl4k info!!
#borderlands#bl3#borderlands 3#eden-6#i am so fucking tired holy shit lol#can't wait for fl4k tho#im so ready
