#I don't have a problem. I'm totally not obsessed with being an absolute weirdo in Stardew Valley.

!!!STARDEW VALLEY UPDATE SPOILERS!!!

I think I need to retcon the origin story of the Grass Bomb Goblin due to the new weather anomaly.

Because let me tell you. The absolute maniacal glee I felt upon exiting my house and finding that it was RAINING GREEN AND A BAJILLION WEEDS HAD SPROUTED OVERNIGHT!!!

I was running around like a maniac grabbing fistfuls of weeds and chopping down giant ferns wherever I went!

Also I thought it was hilarious that Demetrius was out in a full hazmat suit and I'm just... standing there in my regular clothes lol.

With this new update, the Grass Bomb Goblin WILL be returning.

Also I just realized that the new farm type that I decided to try out is like the perfect environment for the Grass Bomb Goblin since it's like completely covered in grass.

Massive ask compilation time OH LORD

YES, her journals are a fun read. I somewhat wish there was more to her and The Dark Urge's interactions, too - she's wonderfully evil and clearly very attached to you if you're playing as that character, but I had hoped there was more of a reason for her obsession besides just "you were fun to cut up", haha. I remember reading her journal over a couple of times looking for something I might have missed.

His reaction was pretty in line with the Narrator's cues, just immediate rage over what she had done to him - DU Drow may be a masochist but that's reserved for people he cares about! So, her and her posse met a swift end. Also, despite the fact that the whole tadpole thing turned out being for the best, I think he's easily overtaken by resentment over his lost glory-days whenever faced with it so directly (he misses living in obliviousness) - not to mention his profound fear of vulnerability, and of feeling... Small. The way Kressa spoke to and of him would have absolutely shook him to his core, especially by doing so in front of the others.

[MORE UNDER CUT]

THANK YOU so much for your kind words first of all! As for the question, it depends a bit on the timeline; his dislike of female drow, especially at the start of his tadpole'd journey is pretty irrational and faith status wouldn't be of too much relevance, he just thinks It's in their nature to want to put him down and be conniving, and wants nothing to do with them.

Later, and especially post-game, he might at least give them a chance to prove they aren't "like other drow", though it would take him a lot to ever let his guard down entirely - UNLESS you seem like a complete fool LOL he's actually easy to trick into dismissing you as long as you don't mind playing the role of a dumb idiot.

But if not, he'd have an extremely short patience for any attempts to exert authority over him or his actions - or jokes at his expense, or any level of smugness or secrecy. Nymea would definitely feel kept at arms length because of the gender+race combo alone and have to put up with a lot of snideness. Basically, she'd have to treat this 6'4" feet tall freak with kids gloves to ever develop a rapport LOL

But also... The vampirism may "help"? He'd consider her a "lesser drow" for it. In that regard her attitudes toward Astarion would probably come to be relevant. I'm not sure about that aspect of it to be honest!

First of all, this is a hysterical scenario because he Would just fucking put the ring on without thinking about it LOL so thank you for the laugh that mental image just provided me with.

Oh he wouldn't care though. I mean, he dislikes drow in general, but he is a drow (up for debate, but you know, generally speaking) and he thinks he's pretty great. As long as he's still huge and strong he could wake up a woman tomorrow and not give a damn. And, frankly, his dick could turn into a pussy at any point in time and it wouldn't change anything about his character save for having to add a recurring UTI problem to his character sheet - he'd probably have fun with it.

TOTALLY FAIR, I'm very sorry it went past the point of enjoyment for you, but I'm glad you knew when to put it down!!! We're in our hand-holding and elf-smooching era now with the occasional visceral description of violence LOL SO YOU'RE WELCOME IN IF YOU'D LIKE. Thank you for dropping by!

Just putting this here because - I actually haven't decided yet, so that's pretty funny you asked LOL I'm leaning eyes closed though, nothing like a smooch to calm the big weirdo down.

HAHAHAH WELCOME BACK, I've been around this whole time! But I was hanging out on twitter for the most part. HOPE YOU'RE INTO THE DND STUFF LOL

DROW DURGES RISE UP I'll be honest with you friend, DU drow's lore has been as accidental as something like that can be, so much of it has felt completely organic in the way it came up - I guess that's what good RPG does to your brain. The rest of it has just been a wonderful opportunity to develop my writing that I decided to take full advantage of this year. Thank you so much for the lovely message!

Aaaaand I can barely muster something to say that feels like an appropriate response, but again I wanted to acknowledge all the sweet compliments people take the time to leave in my inbox. Some of you guys' comments about the things I create blow me away, I think I'm pretty confident in my art but... Damn, makes me so happy to know the stuff I create can hold a little special place to some folks. Thank you all so, so much for taking time out of your day to spread a little kindness around, and make mine a little better.

Again, thank you all for humoring me, have a lovely day folks!

You’ve always mentions your oc’s, but I don’t know any… would you mind talking about them?

I would LOVE to talk about them!!!

warning: mentions of suicide

I have kept this bottled up for so long, so I'm so freaking happy someone asked. Be careful though, because I'm about to become the physical embodiment of this image: (one the other hand it's great entertainment)

So yes. My fovourite OC. Casey Cole. My beloved.

This absolutely insane human being, and the love of my life (I'm totally normal about them) is the product of what was meant to be a one-off, one paragraph, not even really important character from my first ever WIP.

One problem though; I made them a little bit too interesting for my gremlin writer's brain.

In my original WIP, a boy (who we'll call H) is protected by a mad lonely god, who is just trying to find happiness in a very sad cold world. This god eventually decides, hey, what a better way to protect H, than to just fucking kill everyone but him. For reasons i hope you understand, my ocs decide this would not be a good idea, and set about trying to get rid of said insane god. They do succeed, because that's how plot lines (that aren't tragedies) work. So this god, driven even more mad by the grief of being rejected by the one person who knew she existed, decides to kill H's boyfriend, whom she blames for the turn of events. But here's the thing.

Here's where Casey comes into this. Casey is a Seer, and gave a prophecy about halfway through the book that basically said that someone would try kill everyone, and the only way to stop this was for H to kill himself.

H, realizing this is the only way to kill the god, kills himself. Realizing what she has done, this god repents, saves H's life, and essentially decides the only way she can stop herself from doing this again is to wander forever lonely.

This is where my gremlin brain takes over. What if she didn't wander forever lonely? what if someone came in, and prevented her from ever doing that again, as well as offer her some contact with a living being?

Enter Casey.

And a second WIP.

Casey and Robin (the god) are the most chaotic duo i have ever come up with. And I fucking love them to death.

So a little bit about Casey:

They are the most bogan person you have ever met. I honestly don't know how to describe what bogan means so non-Australians, (for Americans: it's an Australian redneck). They are... unsophisticated? they use a lot of slang, and are just rough around the edges in general. Very Occa (QueerDeer, your Aussie is showing).

The duo of chaotic good and chaotic evil, on a redemption arc for the ages.

Will they find another evil god and have to stop them? YES. Will there be angst? OF COURSE. Will I make the newly redeemed OG god face serious moral dilemmas and nearly drive them insane again? ONE THOUSAND PERCENT. And I shall do it all knowing that this is not the first, and certainly not the last OC that I will become a little too obsessed with!

And so: the journey of a new WIP begins! featuring one very occa enby with green hair and an evil god on a redemption arc! And the great romance my aromantic ass will try and write between them!

Good Lord, I hope I can pull it off.

TDLR: I'm very normal about my OCs.

Thankyou so much for letting me be a weirdo about my ocs anon! :D

I wish a very exciting ask on you in return!

[teslacoils-and-hubris]

stop holding back, talk about your oc

Anon you're playing a dangerous game telling me to talk about any of my ocs but especially ocs for the fandoms I'm currently obsessing over

So because most tf2 ocs are mostly just self inserts that don't play around with the whole joke of their characters designs (totally valid and I also do it), I wanted to play in the space and make someone that i could reasonably see ending up in tf2 in a different world, hence my anti violence hippy who somehow ended up as a merc using chemical weapons to kill people! Everything about this character is at its core an attempt at being funny that is probably only funny to me lol. The rest is under the read more cause it got long

Anyways meet the chemist! I imagine he's functionally sort of a cross between demoman and pyro, one weapon being a sort of delayed fire trap similar to demos stickybombs but instead of bombs they're aerosol gas weapon canisters that create a sort of poison cloud that gives damage if you run through it that adds up the longer you stay in a cloud. His second weapon is basically a recolor of pyros flamethrower except chemical/acid spray instead of fire, it has a certain time it gives damage for similar to afterburn. I haven't figured out what his meele weapon is yet, but I imagine he does have a two person taunt where he puts a flower in their gun

Backstory wise it's basically what I said before, he was just a weird hippy hitchhiking around, making and doing drugs, and getting suckered into newage spiritual cults. He found he was pretty skilled with a chemistry set and started playing around making highly illegal chemical weapons for fun and probably used them at some anti violence protests he was at, which eventually got him scouted by miss pauling to avoid legal charges by moving down to New Mexico and putting his skills to use. He thought he was being pulled into a new cult and just went along with it and was honestly pleasantly surprised to find out it wasnt another cult. Nice change of pace :)

Personality wise he's pretty chill. Susceptible to suggestion and 100% believes in aliens but isn't so into the whole new age stuff that it's apparent until you get to know him and he mentions off hand that he was abducted by aliens and told the secrets of the universe one night. Firmly against the idea that aliens built the pyramids or had any real role in human civilization until roswell because the aliens told him so. I imagine he talks like Bill and Ted. This is critical he may be anti violence but he has absolutely no moral problems about fucking people up and even killing them. His problem was doing it as a job but he was totally cool beating up assholes for free. He had a bit of a clash with his new job at first, but when told he could do his damn job or leave in a body bag he got over it pretty quick

When it comes to the other mercs, there's plenty of opportunity for chaos as always. I imagine he gets along well enough with engi and demo, talking about engineering and chemistry needed in all their jobs and just hanging out. I imagine a sort of running gag with scout where scout complains about his lack of game to chemist and chemist, who is a freak and a weirdo and looks like a wet rat, regales him with some story that somehow ends with him getting laid despite all odds and scout being angry/jeleous/confused/come on?? This guy?? About it. Spy hates him cause he's gross and weird and all to touchy Feely and constantly tries to get the group to be emotionally open. Smokes with sniper in the woods. Honestly kind of creeped out by medic I don't have a reason I just feel it in my bones it took a while for them to warm up to eachother. Running joke were soldier calls him a hippy and he just shrugs and agrees and makes soldier even madder

Anyways I'm not happy with my design for him yet but have this first draft design that I do like but doesn't feel like it fits the aesthetic of tf2 enough for me, the half visible emblem is based on chemical hazard information symbols and will also probably get reworked at some point
