Casey: Yeah! Let's call Queen Wa'na-

Dr. Bunny: Defense calls Prince Neapolitan of Ice Cream Land to the stand!

Casey: Objection! I was gonna call a witness! Is the defense scared of what the Queen has to say?

Dr. Bunny: Of course not! So, Prince Neapolitan, please tell us about yourself and your relationship with the defendant.

Hello, all. I am Prince Neapolitan of Ice Cream Land. As you may already know, I have come to testify on behalf of my elder brother, Prince Germafrost.

I was not the first in my world- and in Ice Cream Land, for this matter- to meet RJ. Germafrost was. Our family has not been doing too well as of late. Crystalline, my elder sister and our former crown princess, was lost to us in an accident. The entire kingdom, us in particular, were deeply heartbroken by this loss. I know Germafrost and Crystalline were very close, so I can understand why he seemed to be the most devastated. He ran away all of a sudden, worrying us deeply.

He met RJ not too long after he returned home. Supposedly, he was whisked away to another kingdom none of us had heard of before- the Unikingdom. Not only this, but the person who took him there tried to keep him stuck there! Thankfully, he was set free.

When he first met RJ, it was shocking for him. You see, whatever RJ is, those don't exist in our world. There was no... Armablahblahblahgeddon. We have no historical records of a bipedal yellow creature named Emmett. When he first described RJ to me, I thought he was discussing some sort of mythical beast. Still, RJ and Germafrost were able to connect. Since his time in the Unikingdom, Germafrost has been more open with us about his feelings. From what he's told me, our parents, and Piano, RJ is one of many people who have encouraged him to open up.

Germafrost introduced us to RJ later on. He was quite impressed by Piano's musical abilities, and he helped me fix my snowmobile. I've never been able to drive it this smoothly! He and I have also gone snowboarding together, which we both greatly enjoyed. I do not know much about the effects of interdimensional travel, but RJ has visited us more than once, and Ice Cream Land is still as it's always been.

We knew nothing of RJ's past actions until we heard he'd been arrested. It truly came as a shock to us, as he seemed like a genuinely kind person.

Just watch as Germafrost runs away from Jesse and the gang, leaving a trail of ice in his wake as he avoids making contact with anybody in the blocky Minecraft world at all costs.

The last character you drew/wrote about is now stuck in the last game you played. How screwed are they?

[pteracotta]

it's been a while since i've made a fakemon germafrost germafrost is based on microbial life found in ancient ice that's why it looks like a snow crystal ice/poison is my favorite currently unused type combination because of how diverse the 2 types are when they're combined

My OCs In My Friends’ AUs

This was part of my presentation for a presentation night that @askthechronoverse, @masterjacobofficialblog and @unikittybeforethereign had in a Discord server. I’d been waiting to show them these for so long.

Imogen, in the Chronoverse, would be from the island of Alexythemia, since that’s where Charm Valley would be if it were in that AU according to Fabri. They also came up with the design for Chrono!Imogen. In Master Jacob, even though that AU is a next-gen AU, I think Imogen would still be a teenager. She’s still learning and growing, so she has this witchy student style. The blueprint for my OCs in Master Jacob are these anthro designs I drew a while ago. Imogen doesn’t have a Before The Reign design yet because StayCute is still thinking about what Master Frown and characters like him look like in that AU.

Germafrost in the Chronoverse and in Master Jacob were based on the ways Fabri and Mamækin draw Unikitty and Puppycorn, since I’ve always thought that lots of dogs and cats in their world look like them. In the Chronoverse, Ice Cream Land would be way up in the North Pole region of Meraki. On MJ!Germafrost’s sleeves, there are the patterns of the three flavors (strawberry, vanilla and chocolate). In Before The Reign, he’s a long-haired German shepherd who looks like a puppy because he’s canonically babyfaced. I think I might’ve put his icicle horn too high on his head.

Piano’s Chronoverse design is based on Fabri’s Valentine for me. Her dress is patterned like wedding cakes because she’s partly a wedding cake-flavored ice cream creature. In Master Jacob, she wears a stylish winter coat I found on the web, but with lots of extra sparkles and crocuses because she wouldn’t just wear it like it is. For Before The Reign!Piano, I had trouble deciding what species of sheep she was. I found this white, long-wooled type of sheep called Heath sheep, which have horns like her dad does. Her wool looks creamy because, again, it’s ice cream. StayCute said that BTR!Dr. Fox is still bipedal and still wears a lab coat, so Piano would also stand on two legs and wear her usual attire.

Fabri said that the Marevian merpeople in the Chronoverse would live in the Commuovere Sea and have a candy/ice cream theming. Chrono!Waterlily has satellite wafers for her bell, cotton candy and dragon’s beard candy to represent her light, dreamy nature, and candied lotus seeds for her jewelry. Master Jacob!Waterlily is wearing a dress with motifs of her namesake flower. As for Before the Reign!Waterlily… I tried. She’s a combination of a moon jelly and a sea nettle, but she looks more humanoid because she’s a mermaid. Apparently, those clover-shaped marks in moon jellies are supposed to be where their mouths (and also their butts) are, so I moved that down to where Lily’s mouth is.

Chronoverse!Spike’s candy themes are black licorice and honey. I did the licorice motifs for his spines and legs, and honey motifs for his torso. (He’s also wearing a honey yellow headband.) I picked honey because it has a sunny yellow glow and because it’s supposed to be good for your throat. I tried to imagine how Mamækin would draw his spines in Master Jacob. In any anthro version of Spike, I’ve always imagined that he has a bunch of rings and long black sea urchin-y fingernails. Before the Reign!Spike is a combo of a Caribbean reef octopus (because he was born in a coral reef) and a black sea urchin. But, again, he’s more humanoid because he’s a merman.

Botania in the Chronoverse is hidden within the enchanted Matutolypea Forest and extends out into the desert. Fabri said that if they were running things, they would take influence from Lego Elves for the fairies. So, for Chrono!Allegra, I combined a trapeze artist’s outfit with motifs of Aira, the wind elf. I feel as though Fabri would make her hairstyle look more like the hair hang. The fairies’ size doesn’t change in any of the universes, so they’re still really small. Before the Reign!Allegra has this looping braid. She’s supposed to be a clouded yellow butterfly, so I tried to replicate their wing pattern. I actually found this image showing what females’ wing patterns look like. Just like with the merpeople, she looks more humanoid being a fairy.

Chrono!Zora’s outfit is influenced by Azari, the fire elf, because he travels around drier areas and is comforted by fire. In Master Jacob, Zora has that same adventurer/desert garb look I gave him in his anthro because it suits him to a T. He’s supposed to be a dragontail butterfly, and it was pretty tricky for me to get his wings right for his Before the Reign design. He also looks more humanoid, being a fairy and all. His braid goes over the top of his head and falls behind his wings in the back.

Unikitty, Germafrost, Imogen, and Brock: How did you four feel like the year went for you all?

Unikitty: This year was so wonderful! I feel like I’m learning more and more about the other lands as time goes by!

Germafrost: It was mostly okay, as years go. Everything with RJ’s trial* was sure a lot to take in. Neapolitan helped out a lot, though.

Imogen: Hmmm… I say it was fine. I got to visit my family in Charm Valley for Age-of-Mage this year, which was nice.

Brock: Eh, it was alright. Master Frown and I mostly just hung around at home and went on our usual outings.

*From @askthechronoverse

[unikittybigbrightworldau]

Germafrost: Oh, sure. Um... I'd like some warm milk.

I... I came here because... you and RJ know Piano, and she came home yesterday looking really stressed…

Germafrost: Um… hello? Is there a Richard here? I-I’d like to talk to you, and, uh… I… wanted to see if you could… Sorry. I can’t get my words out.

I am Richard. Take your time forming your words, Germafrost. What can I help you with? Can I make you something to drink?

Richard sounds tired, a book of Syspocalystarian laws under his arm.

[unikittybigbrightworldau]

I'm a multiverse traveler from me and my friend's AU! I stopped by this universe to ask some characters some questions:

To Unikitty: In my universe, you have a third sibling named Unipuppy. What do you imagine she's like if you had a version of her here?

To Puppycorn: In my universe, your horn is fixed and you got electrical powers. What powers do you think you could've had if your horn isn't chipped?

To Dr. Fox: Have you cracked portal travel yet?

To Master Frown, Brock, and Imogen: There's a town in my universe called Demon Town with friendly demons from hell. How would you talk to them if they we're to visit Frown Town?

To Germafrost: There's a kingdom in my universe called the Flavored Ice Kingdom that's very similar to yours. If they we're to visit your kingdom, what would you tell them about your kingdom?

And to everyone I asked: If you are turned into a human one day, what would you do about it?

Unikitty: Nice to meet you! Unipuppy's what our grandma's name is, so maybe she'd be named after her. I think she'd be younger than both me and Puppycorn. Not THAT much younger- we'd be surprised if Mom and Dad walked in one day and told us they had a baby. She'd probably be in third grade or something. She'd still be the best little sister ever!

Puppycorn: I never had any powers at all. I did hit my horn pretty bad, but fixing it isn't gonna give me any. That's what Mom said, and that's what the doctor said. I think Dr. Fox also said that.

Dr. Fox: Well, I've opened a portal to Bunny Town, but not to other worlds. I've been trying to find a way to open an interdimensional portal that doesn't involve magic.

Master Frown: What? Demons are real where you're from? The closest thing we've got here are monsters! They’d make some great henchmen… if they’re friendly enough to stay loyal to me.

Brock: Woah. I thought demons only existed in TV shows and stuff! Well… they do in this world. I don’t know. I guess I’d ask them what it’s like in their town.

Imogen: Uh… demons from where? I’m not sure how I’d talk to them…

Germafrost: I… I would tell them that Ice Cream Land is a lot, well, creamier than their kingdom… unless they have ice cream, too.

——

Unikitty: If I turned into a human one day… I guess I would go out and do some human stuff!

Puppycorn: Yeah, me too! But… what IS human stuff? And what’s a human?

Dr. Fox: I would research whatever type of body a human has.

Master Frown: I’m already a human… sort of. I’m a humanoid, according to everything my lame teachers told me in school. I don’t think anything would change.

Brock: Yeah, I think I’d just do what I usually do, except I’d look more like Master Frown and Imogen.

Imogen: I would do whatever humans do until I find a way to change back to normal. I think there might be a spell for it…

Germafrost: I don’t know. I do know that there are these creatures called humanoids, but I’m not really sure what a human is… is that like a humanoid?

——

You seem fun. I’d love it if you sent in more questions!

♠️🔥For Germafrost/Piano

♠️ - In their armor (or in some sort of fantasy armor if not applicable to their story)

[Image Description: Germafrost and Piano are dressed in Gelatarian armor. On the left, Germafrost is wearing a large collar made of vanilla ice cream material, with a button on the center that has strawberry, vanilla and chocolate-colored stripes. There is a long cape attached to his collar. He has a chestplate made of solid ice that has a heart-shaped carving at its center, which is bordered with the same material as his collar at the bottom. His shoulder pads are cookies, and he also has long sleeves and gauntlets on his arms. His leg guards, which are made of cookie dough, seem to resemble flower petals. There is a layer of wafer beneath them. On the right, Piano is wearing a helmet made of waffle cone that her wool is sticking through, and a pair of huggie earrings. She also has a cookie gorget with hearts on the sides, a waffle cone breastplate split down the middle, long sleeves and gauntlets made of cookie dough, a suit and shoulder pads made of solid ice, a layer of wafer beneath her suit, leggings, and a pair of hard cookie boots. Germafrost looks more fraught while Piano looks more serious. Both Germafrost and Piano’s tails are hidden. /End ID.]

Yeah, Germafrost and Piano don’t have armor, and I don’t think they’re the types of people who’d wear it. I have the idea that Germafrost, Piano and Sgt. Wolf would wear some armor for the series’ final battle, but I don’t want to have them do out-of-character things, so they might have different outfits instead. Still, these armor concepts were fun to do.

I’m saying that Germafrost’s tail is hidden in the image description because I forgot to draw it. :/

🔥 - In what they’d wear on a very hot day

[Image Description: Piano and Germafrost are dressed in clothes they’d wear on a hot day. On the left, Piano is wearing a wide hat that looks like tiers on a cake, with multiple flowers and leaves on the brim. She isn’t wearing eyeshadow, and her wool is tied low. She is also wearing a sundress with wavy sleeves and skirt layers, as well as a slightly wavy belt. Beneath it, she has an undershirt shirt with long wavy sleeves, loose pants and thin shoes. She appears worried that her wool might melt. On the right, Germafrost is bent over a little and looking down towards the ground. He is wearing a hard, thin collar with a round gem on it, and a wide hat that looks like frosted bread topped with berries. Both Piano and Germafrost have a layer of ice coating the inside of their hats. /End ID.]

When it gets hot in Ice Cream Land, people will wear hats with layers of ice inside of them to keep them from melting. Even on the hottest days there, people will still wear their clothes in layers like they usually do, since it’s still pretty cool out. They just wear fewer layers and thinner clothes. And, clothes like these are worn when it’s Berenstia, but they’re decorated with a lot of berries, fruits and flowers.

Since you didn’t specify who these are for, I’m assuming I can do them with any character.

9. Do you bite your nails?

[Image Description: A drawing of Pepper. Her hands are presumably on her hips, but they are cut off along with everything below her waist. She is wearing a T-shirt and has a shoulder bag hanging from her left shoulder. She is saying, “All the time. It’s a stim.” /End ID.]

18. Are you scared of spiders?

[Image Description: A drawing of Sgt. Wolf and a spider that resembles Abugail. Sgt. Wolf is on the left side, a fearful expression on her face. Her tail is curved inward. With both hands, she is pointing her sword down towards the spider, who is on the right side. /End ID.]

It’s not her biggest fear, but yes she is.

33. Do you have trust issues?

[Image Description: A drawing of, from left to right, Shelltop, Germafrost, Waterlily and Spike. Shelltop, Waterlily and Spike are in their land forms. Waterlily’s jellyfish bell is a hat with a pretty wide brim. All four of them have small black dot eyes, open-mouthed smiles, and raised eyebrows. Their arms are spread outward. They are saying, “Oh, DO we?” /End ID.]

Note to self- don’t try to shove all the ask drawings onto one page.

Also, here’s a concept of Waterlily’s bell being a hat instead of a bonnet.

Holidays the Big Bright World is celebrating this spring:

Marevian New Year (Marevi)

Unikingdom Film Festival (Unikingdom)

Easter (Unikingdom)

First Dragon Migration (Charm Valley)

Berenstia (Ice Cream Land)

Sea Serpent Festival (Marevi)

Earth Day (Botania)

Information of how they're celebrated can be found in this post.

Here's some more:

Like I said in my post about their performing arts, Marevians love music. They see it as a way of spreading around the essence of life, and giving people life. So, when there's a holiday coming up, it's a great time to hear orchestras play or see a Marevian opera.

I picked the day that Film Fest premiered, March 12, as the day the Unikingdom Film Festival is for this AU. To this day, I still feel that an Easter special for the show is what it was missing.

The first Dragon Migration is when the dragons leave Charm Valley for the distant mountain range. The sunlight that shines over the mountains during the summer months is good for them. It gives them heat and energy, and it'll allow them to help Charm Valleyans during the winter.

Crystalline passing weeks before the beginning of summer means that Germafrost celebrated his last Berenstia with her not too long ago.

Sporting events are pretty much the only competitions you'll ever see in Marevi, sea serpent racing being one of them. Even then, they don't give out any trophies or anything; they just make note of who won.

Also, I added Botanian New Year and Valentine's Day to the winter holidays, since January and February are winter months.

What festivals and holidays occur in the spring in your world? How are they celebrated?

[unikittybigbrightworldau]

Do any of OCs have fans?

Swanna and Lee have some very nice ceiling fans installed in their tour center. They're all nice, dark shades of pink and purple.

Imogen and her family have this magical mill-like fan that they power their house with.

I don't think they would have ceiling fans in Ice Cream Land, so it's a no for Germafrost, Piano, Sgt. Wolf, and the other Gelatarians.

It's a no for the Marevians as well, since I think Marevi wouldn't have ceiling fans either.

In Botania, I see some places having fans and others not having them, so it varies for the people there. I think that Kira's house wouldn't have fans in it, Bia and Allegra do have ceiling fans made of leaves, and Zora has a portable fan. The Petalstones probably live in homes that don't have fans. Apparently, fans use less electricity than air conditioning, so HVAC isn't big in Botania.

Much like Imogen's, The giant geode house Trey and his family live in is powered by a magical fan. But, since Charm Valley's climate is cooler than Frowntown (at least, as I would imagine), Trey's fan uses Fire magic while Imogen's uses Air.

People in Elegancia and Swan Lake don't tend to have ceiling fans in their homes, but more and more people have installed them recently.

Wait... what was that now?

Oh, so you meant the kinds of fans that are, like, admirers?

Oh, okay! Okay! Let me start over.

Swanna and Lee have some admirers around the world, all of them wondering when they'll see her again. In the Unikingdom, on the Uni-Net, she has a bunch of fans subscribed to her fashion channel.

Sgt. Wolf doesn't really have any fans, but there are some people who have tried to excuse her bad choices. "Oh, she's just trying to protect her pack! She and her pack are a team!"

Germafrost doesn't exactly have any fans either, but the people of Ice Cream Land have begun to look up to him the same way they do to his parents. On the other side of the coin, Waterlily is respected like her parents, but the people of Marevi treat them like close friends rather than monarchs, as I said. As I've also confirmed, Lily goes to a normal school.

Allegra is really popular, both at her school and in her tree. Outside of the Landgang, she has a lot of friends, such as her trapeze partner, who admire her.

The Petalstones have many fans around the world. Most of their fans are, as you would expect, from Botania like them. Botania highly encourages people to be respectful to their favorite musicians, and to not put them on pedestals.

[jezabatlovesbats]

Now that I think about it, my Unikitty OCs could really use some redesigning. I designed most of them back in 2019, and, well, most of the more humanoid characters just look like Master Frown. They’ve got his round face shape and arms.

Sgt. Wolf and Germafrost sorta look like recolors of Dr. Fox and Unikitty respectively, but that was because I assumed that most cats and canines in this world looked the way Dr. Fox, Unikitty and Puppycorn do.

I’m constantly revising and changing things in the Big Bright World AU anyhow.

Sameface is a genuine waste of a concept artist’s time

The thing that bothers me about sameface syndrome (particularly in animation production companies like Disney) is that it’s such a waste of talent, time and resources. In an environment that requires team effort, it’s essentially saying that at the end of the day there is only one way for a woman to look. 

Why bother going through all the trouble of concept art, bringing so many different artists together to create a great character when in the end you just slap Rapunzel’s face on the final model and call it a day?

What kind of morale do you think is going to be reinforced on the production team when the animation director tells an artist to create a wonderful, powerful, unique female character who will influence millions of girls. And then at the end of the day throw all that away just to make Elsa 2.0? 

What kind of artistic process is that? It’s a waste of time, energy and creativity. 

[unikittybigbrightworldau]

Germafrost and Spike - transparent yellow and gold. For both.

Transparent Yellow - Would you consider yourself to be special?

Germafrost: Um… kind of, but not really? The people look up to my family because they're... well, the rulers of Ice Cream Land... but I didn't think I was a, uh... particularly special one. And, now... I guess that I am special... but I feel like it's because I... have to be? People are gonna start turning to me for guidance, and... I gotta get used to it. Piano says that I’m special no matter what, and… my… sister did, too.

Spike: When you’re Marevian, you’re raised on the belief that we’re all special. This has different meanings to everybody here. Some people say that everyone’s amazing and unique in their own way. Some focus on the togetherness part of it and promote equality. Some people believe that no one’s special. As for me… I’m just an average man.

Gold - Are you high maintenance?

Germafrost: No. I don’t think I am. I don’t really try to… get attention from people… That’s to say, they give ME attention, but… I don’t go out seeking it myself…

Spike: High maintenance means that someone’s so demanding of attention that it causes problems, so no. On a side note, how much attention I need… varies for me. On some days, I badly need it, and on other days, I want people to give me space. I never want to become a famous celebrity, but I also need to be heard. It’s… really complicated.

[unikittybigbrightworldau]

Malachite with Germafrost

Malachite - Do you speak more than one language?

Germafrost: Ja! Ich spreche Deutsch.

[unikittybigbrightworldau]

[Image Description: Two drawings of Germafrost. In the left drawing, he is shyly covering his face with his paws, but his eyes, nose and mouth are still visible. In the right drawing, he is holding a cone of vanilla ice cream, using his powers to sprinkle some round red sprinkles on it. /End ID.]

Oh, Germafrost… he might look like a Unikitty recolor with Puppycorn’s snout, and I might have used most dogs and cats looking like that in this world as an excuse, but he’s very special to me. I mean, he is one of my first OCs for the show. I wanna give him hugs and go out for a treat with him!

Also, apparently, he’s a favorite amongst my friends. Here on my blog, I do what I want, but I’ll do my best to write him well for you!

Happy early birthday, Germafrost! You matter! We love you so, so much!

(Germafrost’s birthday is actually on February 22nd. The reason I’m posting this now is because there’s another strike going on from the 18th to the 24th. You should participate; it’ll help a lot!)
