This is a really random headcanon that I thought of: what if Pinocchio's walking difficulty is because Gepetto made a mistake when making him? Like he forgot to add support to the knees or something, and now Pinocchio has to kneel or else his knees will collapse.

Anyways, here's a little passage I wrote based on that idea:

——————————————————————————————————

"Papa?" Pinocchio asked, shuffling his way over to where his papa stood with weird black beams in his hands. "What are you doing?"

Gepetto looked down and smiled fondly. "I'm building a gym for you, my boy. So that you can build those muscles."

Pinocchio blinked those wide chestnut-coloured eyes. "Why, papa?"

"Well…" Gepetto set his tools down and kneeled down, cupping Pinocchio's cheek with a calloused hand. "You were born very weak, Pinocchio. I'm sure you know this well."

"I—" Pinocchio looked down at his hands and twisted his fingers together. His brows knitted together and he bit his lower lip. "I guess so…I can't even pick the grapes."

"And you don't need to," Gepetto reassured his boy, giving his cheek a gentle squeeze. "Leave it to papa and your sister, all right?"

"All right…"

"But, this gym will help you grow stronger!" Gepetto pointed at a dumbell in the corner. "You see that funny-looking thing? That can help youbuild muscle, which means you grow stronger."

"Really?" Pinocchio beamed, eyes glistening with excitement. "Does that mean I can finally help papa in the vineyard?"

"Eventually, yes, but it takes time."

"Oh…" Pinocchio sank into the ground as his eyes dimmed.

"But don't be discouraged, my boy!" Gepetto gently patted Pinocchio's head and stood up. "One day you'll be able to help me and Maria in the vineyard, I promise."

"Okay…" Pinocchio didn't seem entirely convinced. Then, just as Gepetto turned around to continue his work, Pinochio asked in a squeaky voice:

"Why was I born different, papa?"

Gepetto froze.

Why? The answer was obvious.

The answer was Gepetto himself.

He was warned when he first gathered the materials to build Pinocchio, that pine was too soft a wood for wooden puppets. But Gepetto remained stubborn, for what reason he couldn't recall. At the time, he thought of it as no big deal. The puppet would be held up by strings, after all, and there would be no difference between oak and pine then.

But when the Blue Fairy came and Pinocchio became a real boy, Gepetto was hit by the realisation of just how frail this boy was. Between his pale skin and fragile bones, it was a miracle that he lived past a month.

He tried to not think about it, about how he was the reason why Pinocchio's legs could barely support his own body weight and why his cough persisted throughout all seasons. But the guilt crushed him every time he saw his boy on his knees with his hands on the ground to prevent himself from falling. They were too poor to afford a wheelchair.

Perhaps he should tell his boy the truth, that it was his beloved papa who caused him to be like this, that the metal beams in his hands were nothing more than a sad attempt to right his wrongs, that his papa was no more than an old man running away from his problems, but the words failed him.

The guilt crushed his ribs and punctured his lungs, but he hid it from the poor innocent boy.

Instead, he simply kneeled back down and said: "You were just unlucky, my boy."

discovered this little crevice in my dream a few weeks ago. I like how it looks like a little passageway. This and a few other images I have are much older than the first ones I shared. I decided I should share them here 'cause it's interesting to see how many different ways the mountains form.

Nightopians really like hanging out on the side of the mountain for some reason.

A good look at the trees. I always assumed these trees come from Helen's dream, the crystal castle one. I could possibly be wrong though, but if i recall correctly, crystal castle is the only dream I can think of that has trees like this. The bark sorta reminds me of different colored crystals or something similar to what crystal castle has in its stage design/aesthetic. could be wrong, and they could possibly be just random trees for my dream though. lol. Just in case though, I do play Helen's dream, mostly that dream in particular often next to will's desert and mountain dreams.

also, two little bonus pics of the nightopians and what my dream looked like when it snows. Interestngly enough, the mountains look a little different during winter weather. maybe it's to give it the look as if it's covered in ice? I guess that makes sense. I always saw the other mountains with a sand and gravel-like design to them. They kinda remind me of desert mountains, but I'm pretty sure they are supposed to be valley mountains. *insert thinking emoji here*

I like how the nightopians like to hang out next to these mountains a lot. lol.

also, if anyone has any idea as to how to get that one harp medal/badge let me know. I'm sorta thinking that maybe you have to play the forest of memory dream in helen's campaign for lots and lots of hours, but this is just me making a wild guess since that dreams theme is heavily related to music. love the design for that dream though. i like the little windows on the trees and the tulips, and the way it looks when you turn the dials.

unless you get the badge from the nightopians. i think they also play instruments sometimes? i haven't seen this when playing the game myself, but I have seen pictures of it floating around the internet. I think they will sometimes play the violin? maybe it depends on what time of the year it is probably. im not sure if they can play instruments though. I have been playing this game since around the time or a bit after its release, but I was like 9 or 10 or so when it first came out, and I wasn't very good at the game and didn't know how to play it, so i didn't play my dream long enough to notice that the pians do different things depending on what season it is. my brothers and I also rented the game from gamefly back then through mail, so we only had about a month i think to play it 'til we had to return it. lol.

luckily, due to me remembering how much fun I had with it back when i was younger, I decided to get it again. got back into NiGHTS thanks to me remembering this game and wanting to play it again.

I also own a copy of the Japanese release of this game which I got as a gift during the holidays.

ngl hate anon really killed my vibe to write

[sketchyorsomething]

maturing is realizing writing is a slow process

[cesium-sheep]

like goddamn dude I'm glad I'm feeling better and all but it's really a one two punch of "please I need more things to do I'm running out of projects that have been sitting here for years" and "oh my god I was so fucking sick, I was So Fucking Sick, I couldn't do fucking anything for multiple years that is terrifying"

like, the Shopping Queue ran out not because I had more money or got lots of gifts or whatever, I was just. too fucking sick to want things. and now it's literally overflowing, I've got a page in my cute little notebook and it is Completely Full. and most of it's little stuff like a stylus for my 2ds that actually fits in the slot, or basic shit like I should really probably have some office clothes if I'm going to be considering any in-person work.

and it sucks and I have a lot of feelings about it but there's nothing to be done but keep looking for opportunities! this is only day 3 of taking a break from captions and I'm going insane lol, that's not even making any money yet

Apparently I can meet my goal of roughly 400,000 words in 6 months if I just somehow write at least 2,200 words a day ghbjh... Almost 2,500 today... huzzah...

How it feels to tag the official account in my fanart post on insta and then they don't share it in their stories

[bmpmp3]

Getting into stuff that has a lot of pre-announced release dates is really good for me like vocal synthesizer products and new love live etc franchise music releases....I'll be lying in bed at like 2 AM with ur usual 20-something's fear and existentialism over time and the future and then I'll remember a piece of singing software or a new song related to cartoon characters I like is gonna come out like next month and I'm like 😌

[tardis--dreams]

I actually realized i hate work. Won't be putting any effort into this anymore ♡

“I figured if I'm going to finish this, might as well be when the olympics are happening!”

I am not the same anon, but omg… Now I’m preparing for the worst. I can feel the tears coming already. Honestly cannot believe how long I’ve been following your works as far back as like 2020. And it may sound a little silly but your fics have brought me so much comfort, and now that shiratorizawa antics is almost complete, I feel like I’ll be having a sob session afterwards.

nooooo don't cry 😭 I can't make any promises on how you'll feel, but I really do think I'm wrapping everything up nicely and it has me feeling good + and what you're saying doesn't sound silly at all! I feel the same way about this story, especially since it was the more "fun" one to write imo! it was such a cathartic outlet during the pandemic
