#Solarballs long rant

[deadal1enx3]

I saw a post from @callistosposts about how the gas giants are in our Au (this one) and I was too lazy to put it in the comments, plus it's easier to show everyone how they acted in my au so:

The gas giants!!

(also the rocky planets)

My au are in era's so proto era and appreciation era and so on so (these are all made up by me so au)

Birth era:

As the era says, this is the birth era. Meaning (obviously) that this is the timeline when they were born. And as we know, Jupiter was the first gas giant to be born. (And Mars is the same age as him :O) And the sun is also 4.603 billion years old but google might be wrong but who knows, in my au Sun will be older with a few million years.

The young giants were like kids. Jupiter is the oldest, then Uranus is the second oldest, after him there's Saturn and Neptune is the youngest. This is only about them so I'm not writing much about the interactions between the rocky planets, plus in my au the Sun also said to them that they shouldn't go too close or near the rockies yet because it's dangerous for them because they are still forming and the Sun didn't wanted collision that could've been avoided.

At this time Neptune's orbit isn't that far yet, so Uranus and him are pretty close cousins. Uranus had a closer neighbor (forgot name but the planet he collided with some time after) who's really friendly, and the three of them are really good friends. Saturn and Jupiter are like two siblings (even though they are aren't siblings remember that) Jupiter being the oldest, he has the stupidest ideas and Saturn is the one who would always do it. This is how they started to prank everyone around them, the Sun, Neptune, Uranus and even broke the most important rule of not going near the forming rocky planets. But fortunately nothing happened, which is good because the two of them would be in trouble if the smaller planets would've got hurt.

There was a new planet. A youngest of them all. He was the neighbor of Uranus and Saturn. They called him X, because there was an X like mark across his face. He hang out with Saturn and Jupiter, he took participation in the pranks and their other little ideas.

Appreciation era:

At this time, the rocky planets were fully formed. There was 7 rocky planets, and the Sun let them meet the gas giants, only if they don't get so close. The rockies loved how strong and big the gas giants were, and that they could protect the solar system so easily. It made the gas giants feel powerful.

The sun suggested that the planets should have their own roles this is how they got their new names and their roles. The gas giants and rocky planets got their own weapons, and learned to use them, and also how to use their symbols for the right thing. They learned how to respect each other, knowing how important each other is, the moons, the dwarf planets, gas giants, and the rockies. At this time, The Sun gave the planets and moons more freedom, they could go out of their orbits and play with each other. Tho this made them a bit more reckless, especially the gas giants. Jupiter always wanted to impress Saturn by how strong he is, And sometimes he even did very stupid things, even doing dangerous stuff. Those times Uranus had to give Jupiter a lecture even though Uranus is younger than him.

The ice giants were in peace, they hang out, played together, trained together and such. They were glad that Neptune was chosen to be the solar system's guardian. He was training hard to do as Sun said to be the guardian, he really did wanted to protect the others even if it required him to be away for a long time, his friends supported him. Whenever Neptune got hurt, Uranus and (forgotten name still the earth sized planet that will collide) would always heal and help Neptune's injuries. They had a good dynamic.

Independence era:

X took place in the pranks, even if he was the youngest, younger than Neptune, he had the most rebel ideas. And because he was acting out, and wanted move on his own, not caring about orbits, and the solar system, it inspired Saturn and Jupiter to be like that too, and the 3 of them wanted freedom. They wanted independence. They created tiers. Gas giants = high tier. Rocky planets = medium tier. Dwarf planets and moons = low tier. And of course, the Sun= top tier. They marked their tier with paint. Red is high tier, blue is medium, green is low and orange is top tier. There were tiers between the moons too. The main moon's symbols and tiers were painted in gold, the others' were painted green, low tier.

The gas giants used their tiers to gain power, and appreciation from the others. They gained respect from others, it gave them incredible power over others around them. The mess had started when X, the youngest planet of the 5 gained more attention from Saturn. It made Jupiter furious, jealous.

Proto era:

As the 3 main planets gained more power and place to be the leader, the more the lower tiered celestial bodies feared them. It was known that the planets had crushed, thrown smaller planets, asteroids and moons out of the solar system. The first time they learned to respect the 3 gas giants, especially Jupiter. Because he was the one who crushed the planet, Mars's neighbor, Pantheon (i don't think that it's name but excuse me with it i only know Vulkan and Thea who i can name). The rocky planets were shocked, scared, seeing how easily they could be crushed by the gas giants. So they stayed in place. In their orbit, not mentioning anything to Sun about the missing planet. When she asked they only told him he disappeared and didn't know where the missing planets went. It was also very known that the main gas planets ate smaller rocky planets too. Well.. not X. Even though he was the biggest leader of them, he loved the rocky planets. He adored them. He hated seeing them getting hurt.

He did confront Jupiter and Saturn about their behavior, and that they shouldn't hurt them, or else who knows what the sun could do to them of she finds out. They had an argument, a big one at that. It could be felt almost everywhere in the system. Almost. With Jupiter's great gravitational force, some orbits got wacky and this is why Vulcan disappeared. Or as it really happened, got sent out of his orbit, into the sun. No one saw him, no one knew it. And also (forgotten planet name, the earth sized planet with Uranus) had collided with Uranus due to the gravity in the system. This caused Uranus' axis to be tilted forever, and also a smaller ring. There was no one else in the solar system who could heal him, so Uranus had to stay in his orbit, recovering. The Sun didn't know why they collided, or what was the real cause of the collision, she'd been told that their orbit probably crossed at one point and collided with each other.

The argument turned into a fight, with Neptune and Saturn trying to stop each other, and fortunately they did stop when the Sun had noticed them and the gravity change in the system. She quickly stopped the two and had them grounded(lol) in their orbits, forbidden to talk or get near each other until they don't learn to not get too close to each other and learn how to control their emotions maturely(?). Meanwhile, Gaia and Theia had collided, it was predictable because they did share an orbit and they would just collide sooner or later..but it was still sad.. Gaia was shy, rarely talked, but very nice. Theia was an extrovert, kind and friendly. She wanted to be friends with everyone. Uranus wanted to try and heal them, but the Sun didn't let him, telling Uranus that he still needed to rest, and that the two rocky planets had to recover naturally.

X didn't understand this. He thought that Theia and Gaia had collided because of Jupiter. He broke the rule that Sun set for the two. He went over to Jupiter's orbit, successful avoiding Saturn who was watching over the two because Saturn was in her orbit. X was furious, Theia was very dear to him, he loved talking to her and Gaia and hearing that they collided with each other was heart breaking for him and immediately thought that Jupiter was the one who caused it. X had caused a fight again, attacking Jupiter. Both got injured as Neptune had noticed the two fighting fron afar and he quickly wanted to stop it. X has been using his powers (the symbolic powers i was talking about wayy back), so Jupiter was pretty injured, but X had more wounds, consider that Jupiter was way bigger than him, meaning he was also a lot stronger than X. While Neptune was trying to stop the two, X had accidentally harmed Neptune too, injuring Neptune's right eye forever. Jupiter felt like he had no choice other than one idea he had.. He ejected X from the solar system forever. The gravitational impact made Neptune's orbit unstable, and more far away than it used to be, always moving further away. The Sun, once again, noticed the sudden change of the gravity in the system and looked around to be seeing two of his planets injured. As Jupiter explained, X was considered a threat to the solar system, so the Sun made Neptune's job to never let him into the system ever again. Saturn was sad when she heard that X has been ejected from the solar system, bit understand it that he may have been a really big threat consider that he did hurt Jupiter twice and Neptune once. Saturn really loved X deeply, and was sad that she couldn't had tell him that sooner. After a while, Uranus could heal the two wounded planets, tho Neptune did got blind in his right eye, where X had hurt him.

Awareness era:

The sun trusted his planets, so she let them out of their orbits more often, it wasn't so strict, just don't get too close to each other. But after what happened with X and the many rocky planets, Sun had decided that it would be best if the planets rarely ever went out of their orbit.

As they had to stay in their orbits, the Sun grew bigger, and warmer, causing Venus' life to slowly die out from climate change and runaway green house effect. It made Venus devastated, he loved his life and did everything to keep it alive, he didn't even dared to get out of his orbit that much, fearing that his life would freeze. Mars' core had cooled down, meaning his gravity got weaker and he couldn't hold his atmosphere strong enough, making the water on his surface to evaporate away. Mars knew how sad and horrible Venus felt about loosing his life so Mars tried to comfort and be with him as much the Sun let them.

Soon, a new planet formed from the remains of Theia and Gaia. Earth, with a moon, Luna. The planet was the one who gained consciousness first, with a thick atmosphere and many asteroid rains. They were quickly friends with Mars, hanging out a lot. Once the little moon had got conscious too, the two acted like siblings, always bickering and arguing. But that settled with time.

As time goes on, the tension between the gas giants and rocky planets eased, as they got a long lecture about the whole things that had been going on and now the tiers they had once created faded away mostly. The rockies did got scared from time to time, but this lessened with time. Tho the trauma between the moons and their planets never heals fully. In the not so long ago past, moons were like trophies, like a accessory to them. The more you have, meant you have the better gravity. Saturn was the one who had the most moon, with a stunning 146 moons. Or.. 147. As said, there was a smaller moon. Chrysalis. Chrysalis was a moon close to Saturn, it seemed like she was the only moon who was treated woth respect after the whole situation like that. This made Titan jealous. He hated seeing only Chrysalis get the attention and respect that all the other moons had been craving. Titan had made the decision to take advantage of the smaller moon's wobbly orbit and once they were close, he flung Chrysalis out of her orbit, going closer to Saturn than what was safe. Sadly getting crushed by the gravitational pull of the bigger planet and the moon remains made the beautiful rings they know today. No one knows, just Titan. Just Titan and no one else. Titan knows what he had done was wrong and it came from his own insecurities, but he still didn't wanted things to turn out like this.

contemporary era:

The Sun had made his rules less strict, bit he was still sticking to the don't go out of your orbit rule, as it was really important, knowing that collision could happen very easily that way.

Tho All of that is in the past now. Earth had gained life, intelligent lifeform at that. Neptune had gone insane but the presence of Uranus and sometimes the dwarf planets had kept him in check. The gas giants are much friendlier now too. And the planets were at peace with each other. Tho the same could not be said with the moons.. as we know by now, they are still treated like objects, so as the solar system trial goes on, i can't say more to this.

(A/N): well this was a long rant... Uhm.. if you read this whole thing, thanks and also you have a great attention spam cus this is hella long- also: @itsmeeleanorstill here you go bbg, it's here as i promised (⁠◠⁠‿⁠◕⁠)

I had fun thinking about this, and that the whole thing was just teenager Gas giants being rebel and stuff lmao. Hope you see this @callistosposts 💞 (luv your art and rants)

Well it's almost 2 AM for me so I'mma go sleep now, gnಥ⁠‿⁠ಥ

griffin stagg is just mercury + neptune combined ,fight me

[voidfanatic]

The new Solarballs episode is basically angst potential and I loved it, so mini rant (again).

Spoilers below:

Tw: Manipulation, mental health problems and implicit character death discussion

Uranus keeps being manipulated by X like people already have pointed out. Like, damn, he even talked about the "Caelus should be your name" thingy with the guy. (Also, wtf X, really? "The butt of the joke"? Be fr). Every time Uranus seems to doubt him, X immediately caters to his feelings in a very shady way if you ask me. And, as always, Uranus is too insecure to question the morality of literally doing the same thing that Jupiter did, only to get the "privilege" of being in Saturns orbit. Uranus is not thinking it trough, and X is taking advantage of that.

He straight up told him that he knew what he wanted: "recognition".

The Sun is also being pressured and kind of manipulated through guilt tripping... X is really playing chess with them.

Then there's Jupiter... Oh Jupiter. He was basically gone at that point. When the moons (and Neptune) found him he didn't want to hear them out AT ALL. He thought they weren't real. The time he was vanished wasn't even that long, but he was full of enough guilt, paranoia and shame that he just needed that extra push to absolutely break down. When he explained to the group what he did to try and compansate his mistakes, he genuinely thought it wasn't enough because he failed to save some of the early planets.

Some-of-them.

Like, the actual inner planets are *literally* alive thanks to him, something that the group tried to explain, but he still thought it wasn't enough. His mistakes still haunt him, specially now that he's alone. Jupiter doesn't have a "vendetta motivation" to keep himself sane like X did. He gave up on returning thanks to all the shame.

(The Solar System could collapse if he doesn't realize how important he is).

AND, I know the fandom loves them, THEIA IS FINALLY CANON GUYS. I just know that the rocky planets angst enthusiasts are going to love this one. Also, also, we can't forget that Jupiter tried to protect them (as he did with all other celestial bodys after the incident) and failed... Do with that as you wish.

[just-milesss]

Do you ship anyone in solarballs?

ok im not gonna lie,,,,,, jupiter and saturn has kinda been on my radar for awhile now LMAOOAOOA

LISTEN LISTEN i personally dont usually ship anyone thats not canon in the videos cuz i see most of them either as really close friends or a family. (cuz im a sucker for close platonic bonds and found family RAGHHHH but i dont mind anyone who ships other stuff too!! AS LONG AS ITS NOT PROBLEMATIC THO 🤨)

i dont like shipping anyone in the orbit cuz like i said, to me they're a family or just close friends! but for jupiter and saturn its just,,,, something abt them man 😭 i dont exactly ship them! but i do sometimes ?!?! like sometimes i would see them as the friend group parents where they have this specific bond and theyre just really close and comfortable with each other in a platonic way, like a queerplatonic relationship! but sometimes i do kinda see them more than that bc of the fanarts and theyre just so eueugh,,,,, ☹️ LOOK IT REALLY DEPENDS CUZ IDK HOW TO WORD THIS RGAJDHSHSB I JUST LOVE SEEING TWO FATHER FIGURES LEAVE ME ALONE !!! /lh

tho ive been thinking abt drawing the two more often with fanart that could be seen as platonic or romantic to anyone! :] anyways sorry abt the rant i got a lil too into it LMAOOOO

[finligz]

Alright, time for my opinion on Solarballs ships

I’d like to start by saying that no matter what fandom I join I tend to only support the official or canon ships. The reasons for that are:

1. I’m not a fan of romantic stuff as a whole, even makes me terribly uncomfortable sometimes

2. I just can’t imagine relationships in my head, so I need something to guide me like a text or better some type of imagery which is usually non-existent or poorly executed when unofficial. So the canon ships are easier for me to understand by default

3. I’m too into friendship or family dynamics, when I see characters who aren’t a couple I already imagine them in those types of settings, so the ships with them don’t make sense to me anymore

But even with all that I can say that I’m not really against most of the ships. Some of them even seem cute and a few of them I even ship myself, tho it’s rare

So today in this post I wanna state my unwanted opinion about the most popular ships in the Solarballs fandom.

Let’s start with the +- canon ones

1. Astrodude x his wife

Literally one the cutest married couples on media that I’ve ever seen. They just support each other all the time no matter what, and you can see how they care about each other. And even when so far away they still keep in touch and love each other

2. Ganymede x Europa

No matter how badly they behave in the story and how awful some of their decisions were, they still seem like they’re made for each other. They seem more like a “long-term relationship” couple to me and I like it a lot, the way they’re not as lovey-dovey and actually accept each other the way they are is very refreshing tbh. I like how Europa doesn’t try to make Ganymede change his beliefs just for the sake of her own and vice-versa, just reminding him sometimes that they’re together ahahah

3. Pluto x Charon

Alright, this one is my favourite in the whole show. They are VERY cute and I like how Charon tries to cheer up Pluto and support him when he feels awful. And even when they don’t understand each other, they stay nice and open minded usually (except when Pluto is ranting about himself and planets). They’re like a couple that grew together and it’s awesome

4. Titan x Titania

I don’t know how I feel about this. They just seem quite too different. And too awkward. Titania probably liked how confident Titan seemed and now has a crush on him in the show, but Titan just doesn’t strike me as a person ready to be in a relationship. He’s too invested in the whole system’s politics rn. I can picture him awkwardly frendzoning anyone who’s gonna confess to him. Maybe in the future this might work in a way like: “we accomplished everything we fought for and now can be together”. Also I think Titan would be too demanding for Titania to feel comfortable, she needs someone more gentle

Now moving on to most popular unofficial ships

Here besides my opinion on the ship I’ll also tell how I personally see interactions between these characters

5. Jupiter x Saturn

This actually seems very nice and cute in a way. Like a married couple maybe? At least when they bicker in the show they kinda give off that vibe. They could work as a couple. Saturn is very sensitive and protective and Jupiter needs support and seems like a patient guy, so they match well!

Personally I picture them more like old friends that rarely gather together anymore but are still close and supportive

6. Callisto x Triton

Maybe that could work? Both of them seem like adults with strong opinions on life and stuff. They might have something in common, but they are too different in my opinion still. Triton strives for freedom and lack of responsibility, while Callisto wants someone to lead her so she won’t have to be responsible. And even if some might say that Callisto changed in the show, I really don’t think so. Also I don’t think they’ll do great with long-distance relationships. For both of them it will be too much unnecessary work to maintain such relationships

I think that Triton sees Callisto as his first friend and that’s why he cares so much. It just doesn’t seem like he knows what to do and how to act. Callisto could also think of Triton as a friend, although maybe just a good acquaintance for now

7. Mars x Earth

It could work? I mean they are best friends and Mars clearly cares about Earth a lot, so he tries to not be too judgemental or put too much pressure on him. Earth also cares about Mars. I’ll just remind you how he made the whole tournament just so Mars will get back to him. So yeah, this seems like a bromance ship in a way, which means it works fine. Friends to lovers shift could happen in this case, although I don’t think they’ll be all lovey-dovey like many people portray them

I see them as best friends just as in the show

8. Earth x Venus

This doesn’t work imo. Venus is too aggressive and communicates poorly. By that I mean that Venus in the show doesn’t seem like a person with a lot of social skills or even experience. The fact that he didn’t know how to play asteroid dodgeball until the tournament tells us about how he didn’t communicate with Earth and Mars a lot. He doesn’t seem like the guy to understand romantic love. Earth on the other hand doesn’t care about Venus much and is too dominant. Even if he confessed to Venus and Venus agrees (not exactly knowing if he actually liked Earth), they would get irritated with each other as they’re both too stubborn and closed off.

I see them as acquaintances at the moment with a lot of actual friendship potential

9. Uranus x Earth

Just no. Even if you’re going to reason that by telling how it’s “canon in mythology”, it doesn’t have anything to do with the actual show. Even if they seem cute enough together, like a shy x confident dynamic and even knowing how similar their current problems are (too afraid to say something wrong/be themselves), it’s just too out of their comfort zones. Uranus is an introvert, maybe even with a sprinkle of sociophobia and he’ll feel very awkward in any relationship. He’ll say some stuff he doesn’t mean and will feel terrible about himself afterwards. Earth in those situations would probably want to push it and sometimes could embarrass Uranus even more. Also I’ll remind you that Earth and Uranus barely know each other. Long distance relationships also would be hard as Earth can’t leave the Goldilocks zone and Uranus probably wouldn’t want to go through 3 other planets’ orbits just to visit Earth.

I don’t see them interacting much.

10. Luna x Titan

This could work. Seems like a pretty serious ship with them both being very thoughtful and pragmatic. Maybe sometimes flirty, but not much. They share some of their opinions. Luna is also very, VERY patient and supportive and Titan needs that as he tries to reach his goals. However, I think right now they have other stuff to worry about. But in the future? I think it will work nicely.

I personally see them as friends

11. Mercury x Sun

Too toxic. It has the vibes of Boss x helpless employee which I’m very uncomfortable with. I don’t think that Sun could seriously love one of his planets romantically and Mercury wouldn’t want to date someone who literally hurts him all the time and demands constant attention. Just no. I don’t understand nor do I want to understand this one.

I see them only as friends. Maybe a bit one-sided with Mercury questioning this friendship

Alright, I think I covered the majority of the popular ships.

Again I’d like you to know that I don’t hold anything against you if you ship anything listed above, cause it wholly depends on people’s tastes.

If you want me to answer any of your questions there’s a button for them in my profile. See ya!

[orange-fresh]

I was gonna put this all in tags but

THANK YOU STARRY AND CALLISTO FOR BEING THE FANDOM'S PHILOSOPHERS

I think that every solarballs fan needs to analyse the WHOLE timeline instead of what [this character] has done in the recent episode and then deem them an innocent guy 🥰🥰 or the other character that did antagonistic things in that particular episode like one time the irredeemable bitch grrrr👿👿👿👿

I cannot stand it, all the characters are all just little guys who have a drive to do certain things. In essence, all their actions and dialogue/monologue move the plot, or their own development. (That's awesome too, a character like Uranus, Venus, or Jupiter for example)

You realise how most of us loved a character once, only to have our opinions diluted by something they did in the next episode? How often has that happened dawg. I love every interpretation of all the characters(to preface) but I think it's very simple-minded to assume each character was written to fulfil one archetype, like "someone who deserves to die" or "the boring guy" or "bad bitch" ←most of the female characters for some reason)

A good example is how everyone is currently interpreting the planet 9 and Gas giants dynamic. You see planet 9 has been ejected by both of them right? That's definitely evil. So their niceness AND probably friendship is a whole facade to hide that part of the timeline. Which we don't see. We all still pity 9? Okay good. Because apparently the gassies, despite it being obvious that they were bitches before the whole solar system, are still loved in the present. Because it was in the past. 9 was probably a victim in that past, and we pity him because we know what the gassies did to him in the past(there is SO much content about the past solar system save me)

Jump to the present!! I wonder if everyone is gonna hate planet 9 because he has motives to "get back" at the gassies. Because y'know the past doesn't matter yeahhuh

YOU CAN PITY BOTH SIDES FOR WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THEM OKAY???? bad things happen to everyone, in the show because they're all developed guys with individual characteristics. There are enough good qualities to go around, plus extra evil added on to enjoy.

There are so many instances where the fandom loves a character for a thing they did in one episode saying "I love evil people!! They're so powerful!!" Yeah because they rightfully created the atmosphere for excitement for the next episodes to come. Everyone begins to love that character and make them the angel on display. But the MOMENT they do evil actions in the next episode after their previous episode (because they included the "pitiful" character that "didn't deserve it 🥺") people go ballistic like that wasn't what the character wanted to do (the build-up to the evil hatched into the plan taking place) and start to convince everyone that this character is unreasonable or something. (if y'know which character I am talking about I'll love you)

like the whole fandom has attention span issues with keeping track of the plot. If you want the whole arc to last 1 video then. I guess you can think about what you want. I don't really know

Thinking about it (after leaving it as a draft for like 20 minutes or so) maybe people just have a bias to earth because he's the most vibrant coloured or he's "our" planet earth. Y'know human bias is a really subtle thing. It's easy to think he's the protagonist of Solarballs altogether because he's (aubdbdhhdhsha) the guy we live on

Last point: really think about, how each character impacts each other. The solar system (or the plot in general) would not be the same without *this guy to help balance the dynamics of the scene. The amount of effort required to link every character to each other based on their individual 50+ personalities is insane. I am so inspired daw

Jumps into ur inbox, hi I have some things to say abt Saturn and the fandom's treatment of him and his moons

A decent amount of ppl in the SB think abt the characters in black and white, when in actuality the characters are all morally grey, they have done good and bad things as well. And I feel like one of the character the fits the bill most well (who's also one of the characters the who's mischaracterized a lot by the fandom) is Saturn!

While yes Saturn is generally a nice person (planet), he's also fucked up (*cough cough* HIS MISTR.ATMENT OF HIS MOONS *cough cough*)

He does care abt them to a certain extent, he cried when he found out he killed one of them and it formed his rings but the way he handled telling the moons,,,, wasn't rly the best tbh.

THIS IS NOT ME EXCUSING HIM HOWEVER, he never brothered to remember the names of his moons and that is 100% HIS fault!!!!

I feel absolutely sorry for the saturnian moons cuz Saturn has mistreated them for BILLIONS for years, he's known them for BILLIONS of years and not ONCE did he bother to learn their names!!

And the way the fandom treats him and his moons omfg!!!!! I hate it!!!! just because Saturn is emotional and the moons did rush, it does not mean doesn't mean Saturn is a "innocent pure baby that need to be pwotected from his evil moons 🥺🥺😡😡" nah nah nah SATURN HAS BASICALLY NEGLECTED THEM FOR BILLIONS OF YEARS, HE CARES FOR THEM AND ALSO DOES NOT CARE FOR THEM

The moons are NOT to blame, while yes they did rush thru introductions, Saturn could've taken notes or asked for a break. (like how surlynotaperson said)

I like Saturn and the saturnian moons, but ppl should look into things from the MOONS' prescriptive more, since the plot of the moon revolution of the show was that the moons were being mistreated. (And it's one of if not THE reason got more popular)

Rant over.

this is so so real

as much as i do talk about malicious saturn , all the characters are canonically morally grey and i wish people would get that sometimes!!!!

they have flaws, they arent always gonna be the best

"the moons are bad cause-" SHUUTT UPPP!!!! UR MISCHARTERIZEING THEM!!!

i understand having headcanons but some ppl gennuinely DESPISING the moons for being "mean and cruel" is just plain wrong 😭❗❗

[solarballs-confessions]

The show's never had any gay characters and I legitimately never think they will. Don't get me wrong, a show doesn't NEED lgbtq rep to be good. But I'm a little worried they're avoiding it for the wrong reasons.

If characters in a show don't naturally fall in love, it feels rushed or forced. A lot of people feel this way about Titan and Titania- We don't know if this'll become a true canon ship or anything yet, because Titan does seem to be a little more distant from Titania's affections, but alas, it is Titania's affections which are the problem. Some think its shoehorned in, and I can't really blame them. The blushing was obnoxious, and Titania didn't spend too much time on-screen with Titan, and Titania never got the development AWAY from Titan to BE a proper character, really. It feels like shipping the main character with a side character who hasn't had their own story fleshed out yet.

So, if love isn't natural, it's hard to lapse into it. I don't want this to happen for any ships on the show, let alone a gay one lol. But I think the whole Titan x Titania thing kind of presents my issue, that they might be falling down the road of forcing ships just because one character is a girl and the other is a boy. If i haven't made that clear, that's bad and I don't want that.

Relationships between characters are hard to handle, and admittedly Solarballs has done a very good job so far! Pluto and Charon were handled wonderfully and I do get the appeal of other hinted ships like Calisto and Triton. Genuinely, they CAN handle ships well. One day I would LIKE to see a gay ship in Solarballs handled with the same grace. But that kind of rises the problem of community shipping discourse. No main character in Solaballs will be revealed to be queer. I'm just saying, the likelihood of that is like. 0%. And it's not because Solarballs is homophobic or anything,, rather its a conflict of interests.

Make your main character gay and anger the fandom who had their own headcanons, ORRRR keep everyone ambiguous! Shipping culture is HUGE especially in Solarballs. The people who make Solarballs KNOW their community, at least a little, and they do listen to our feedback. So, why upset the fandom by taking away one of the Main Characters they PROBABLY have headcanons for already.... and instead just, keep it on the low? Oh also the whole 'their audience is kids' thing and the potential backlash they could get for representation,, if ykyk.

So I guess, no character is gay and no character is straight or whatever you headcanon because we'll probably never truly get a reveal on any character being gay. I kind of hope the same thing is true for straightness, god forbid they make Mercury crush on a woman, you could get the best woman alive and I'd still keep him 16 ft away. LMFAO. ANYWAYS

That was my rant because I needed to get it out and I've seen a bit of this topic from kids in the fandom. Yep. Thanks for reading if u did because lord is this long.

BYF/BEFORE YOU FOLLOW

[Plain text: Byf/Before you follow]

Apologies if this sucks, we have no experience with this-

BYF under the cut because it's pretty long:

-We prefer to stay out of syscourse as it stresses Rian/🧋💎 out

-Tonetags are a serious requirement for us, as we lack perception when it comes to jokes, when someone isn’t trying to be mean, when someone is being serious, when someone is being silly, or when something is a genuine question

-Do not send NSFW things on our main blog please, Rose/🌌🌹 , Iapetus/🌗🏔️, Luna/🌕🌌, and Anya/🩺⚕️ are Apothisexual and we don't want to risk them feeling disgusted and/or triggered

-DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, MENTION SYSTEMSCRINGE TO US. Systemscringe is a MAJOR trigger for Rian

[Plain text: Do not, under any circumstance, mention systemscringe to us. Systemscringe is a major trigger for Rian]

-If Kamaria/🌙🌠 responds to something you made with “*Eats*”, it means they really like it (And it's also positive)

-Please use respective tags when it comes to things that triggers Rian, Berat/❄️🌊🌔, and/or Rose (“#rian begone”, “#berat go away”, and “#rose leave”)

-We're bad at expressing when we really like something, so most of the time we end up leaving a like instead (We’re trying our best to work on this)

-Please do not ask Rian about their trauma, this should be common sense, but we’ve been getting asks about their trauma lately

[Plain text: Please do not ask Rian about their trauma, this should be common sense, but we've been getting asks about their trauma lately]

-Dione/🧊🏔️ gets pissed off at certain things pretty easily (Ex: r/systemscringe being mentioned)

-If it takes awhile for us to respond to things sometimes, it's either because the trenchcoat is at school, there's no Internet, the ask vanished (The ask box likes eating asks sometimes, we have no idea why it does this), or we didn't get a notification

-Smore/🍫🐱 tends to visit other systems, if you see a Persian cat that looks like this:

Then congratulations! Smore has officially visited you! (Note: We have no idea how Smore is able to do this) (Note #2: Smore also wears a lilac ribbon collar with a golden stitch that says "Smore)

-Anti-endos might be on our DNI, we should probably clarify that as you’re a anti-endo that doesn't actively send death threats to or harasses endogenic supporters, then we're chill 👍

-We’re currently working on a tag for when we aren't sure who’s fronting, until we finally introduce a tag, we’ve been using Rian's tag (With Rian's permission of course-)

-Berat has trust issues, so they’ll come off as rude sometimes (Apologies if they do). The reason why Berat has trust issues is because Rian introjected their trust issues onto Berat

-Anya, Macula/🌘🕯️, Venus/🌶️🔥, Iapetus, Dione, and Enceladus/❄️🌫️ will snap if it's necessary (Things that can cause them to snap: Dismissing trauma, sending threats, harassment, purposefully triggering someone)

-Rian, Kamaria, Comet/☄️🌕, Europa/🧊🌒, and Callisto/🌑☁️ are insecure

-Nova/🦇🔥 tends to say “motherfuckers” a lot, this isn't Nova being mean! Nova is just excited and can't contain it

-Rian’s very insecure about their art, so please be careful when you're expressing your opinions about their art

-We try to tag our vents/rants appropriately, if we missed a warning/personal tag for triggers, then PLEASE let us know

-DO NOT TALK ABOUT THE SOLARBALLS BROKEN AU. That AU is a HUGE trigger for Iapetus and Rhea. If you make a post about it, please tag it as "#iapetus and rhea go away"

[Plain text: Do not talk about the Solarballs Broken AU. That AU is a huge trigger for Iapetus and Rhea. If you make a post about it, please tag it as "#iapetus and rhea go away"]

LAST ARC OF THE YEAR RAMBLES

okay this is RAMBLES rambles aka your average school essay so erm lets go!!!!!

Section 1 ✨last arc of the year✨

from what i've gleaned so far from the 30 seconds i can see on patreon *sobs in poor* the last arc is called 'battle for planet x' and im guessing the moons and planets (probably the rockies + neptune + maybe saturn) are gonna team up to somehow reinstate jupiter in the system.

theres almost definitely gonna be a confrontation between planet x and jupiter, and maybe saturn. there are multiple ways this would pan out so here are a bunch of possibilities:

1) planet x forgives jupiter after realising how important he is and backs down, either a) returning to his second orbit outside the kuiper belt, b) going to a new orbit closer to the system or c) leaving the system altogether to go join a new one or be rogue 2) planet x doesnt gaf and proceeds to beat the shit out of jupiter (and maybe the other planets asw) until a) the sun intervenes and probably kicks him out or b) rules the solar system, although this is pretty unlikely

3) option 2, but jupiter (and maybe saturn, neptune and the rocky planets & moons) smack his blueberry looking ahh outta there instead, either a) diplomatically b) crazy asteroid fight c) diplomatically, but yelling

4) a compromise where both planet x and jupiter get to be part of the system, though probably not because of the one and only gravity (curse you issac newton!!! /j)

or maybe 5) jupiter won't come back at all and planet x's manipulation tactics end up working, uranus becomes caelus (booo!!! hes iconic planet x do NOT steal that diva away from me) & essentially planet x's puppet.

obviously there's a lot of other different plot deviations possible but these are like the ones i can skim off the top of my head so im gonna refer to any other possibility as option x. because x unknown mysterious omg ahahhahha im so funny

if planet x doesn't pull a crazy plot twist and the most probable, humane and kid-friendly option (1) happens all the planets are almost definitely going to swear to NOT make any more your anus jokes because that's what planet x uses to manipulate uranus, his insecurities.

(gonna pull a side quest here and argue that uranus should've had a much more cold and stoic personality because coldest planet buuuut i'll make a rant later, not now)

however if solarballs wants to un generic itself and pulls an option 2, 3, 4 or no option at all then idfk man probably the same scenario with uranus if planet x does genuinely GET OUT!!! of here

anyways heres list of all the probabilities based on its likeliness because i am bored (most likely to least, left to right top to bottom be grateful i'm not torturing your fingers with the amount of scrolling you're doing) 1a, 2a, 3c, 3a, 1c, 1b, 3b, 4, x, 5, 2b

my personal favorite is option 3b because we haven't had any good fights in a long time live laugh moon revolution lol

Section 2: THEIA

okay so i absolutely fucking love theia and one of the first arcs of 2025 are DEFINITELY gonna be the long-awaited THEIA ARC!!!

based on jupiter's guilty ass interactions when talking about theia we can assume that he IS in fact guilty for theia and earth colliding. i searched to make sure, and yep:

source: wikipedia

venus being on the list of potential murderer surprised me ngl but it would tie into their personality

anyways here's a theory: mars knows. venus probably suppressed the memory because that's what some people do but mars probably experienced flashbacks of theia's collision with earth when jupiter admitted to brutally massacring the early rocky planets.

this is all speculative because i dont have patreon and cant see the post detailing solarballs' 2025 plans so

thats all i think

bye bye time to figure out how to get earth plushie for christmas

[hewasntcareful]

Some of you people make me wish Solarballs never became a thing because I'm starting to fucking hate it because of your toxicity.

I wish it just remained as a small fandom where all the people actually had some respect for each other and didn't shit on those who didn't see the characters, aka the fucking planets and other celestial bodies, the same way you do.

I've been lurking around in this community for almost more than a decade now and the toxicity is making me want to leave after all these years. This genuinely used to be my comfort community, but now it's just another breeding ground for angry teenagers who are looking for vulnerable people to clown on for not sharing the same views as them on a show that's literally just someone else's planetball headcanon.

Don't get me wrong, there are so many people in this community that I love and make me find a bit of hope in this fandom, and I actually love seeing people happy and making art for the fandom that I love so dearly and hasn't been active for ages. I just can't stand the toxicity, which is too much and has already taken over a fat majority of this fandom.

Sorry for the long rant, fellas.

[thunder-shadow]

It’s really fascinating when you think about how much Earth has been through.  He went through a lot of phases and exprerinced a lot of stuff since he was created. The impact Hypothesis from being a hot ball of lava and magma to gaining his first life form and being a pale orange dot, the first ice age covered in complete ice and snow, Pangea and the dino era, the asteroid that killed the dinos- that made the Earth hot and covered in smoke and gas thus blocking the Sun rays from entering the Atmosphere and being covered in eternal darkness, the second ice age and then finally the Earth we know Today. But in spite of going through mass extinctions and Catastrophic/Apocalyptic disasters, Earth still manages to retain life. Life didn’t just manage to survive but thrives as well. Being the only planet that got to not only attain life but sustain it for this long in the face of all the challenges and adversity is magnificent. Not to mention the diverse habitats and ecosystems. Earth is just so beautiful and cool. Not to mention all the secrets we haven’t discovered yet, years f history yet to be uncovered, too bad we humans have the habit of destroying everything that’s good. 

Anyway, this is mostly a rant about why Earth is my fav character, with Luna being my second- ofc can’t have Earth without Luna they’re a package deal. I saw the ask from your twitter and thought I’d say my reason, maybe you might resonate with it. Ofc the Solarballs Earth character despite being a jerk has a lot of layers and complexity. He isn’t just a black or white character, which makes him so great. It also being our home planet, also plays a factor. He also just has a lot of angst potential, coupled with his depression, BPD, suicidal thoughts/tendency, the constant pain from earthlings, abandonment issues, etc.

And I love how you characterise Earth in your fic, although it may not always be in line with his canon personality, it’s still close enough to how he’d act. Also the earthlings interactions in you Ghe fic, need more of that. Love you fics,  infinite kudos <3

(Ignore me always sending you long asks, it wasn’t supposed to be this long. I always get carried away when I’m excited)

lol ur fine with the long asks

i never feel like im characterizing any of the characters right no matter how hard i try 🤷🏼‍♀️ but i still try and write them despite the anxiety it gives me 😭😭

and yess he's been through sm..... i love him sm 😭😭

[firesofdainix]

solarballs twitter is kinda weird ngl the fandom is weird in general but going on an unprompted rant about fandom in your asks would be weird.

But idk if it's just me but making fun of people for how they use hypotheticals or what they ship makes me uncomfortable I like it when people use theories since I find them fun but not everyone likes them or prefer scientifically accurate things but like someone else said people who write fics, animations even gacha aren't responsible to get these things right so yeah.

I did actually end up going on a rant and didn't even mention the shipping part but that just goes to harassment bad.

Sorry if this isn't the kind of thing you want to be asked it just kind of bugs me how people can be over things that don't really matter (I have seen people get hate for using Vulcan since it's disproven just using that as an example) and the other ask + twitter reminded me of it.

At the end of the day it really doesn't matter wether someone uses it as long as they're not saying it's true tbh.

(It's fine if you wouldn't want to answer it, it's your blog if you wouldn't want idk)

this is me with the solarballs tiktok fandom, dw. but like. worse because those are little kids who think that their word is god. or something.

[chainera]

since some of your versions of the solarballs characters (venus, earth and luna) are girls does that means that they would have a different voice? If yes, how do you imagine they sounding like?

Also, sorry if this sounds rude to ask but why do you like to represent them as girls? Are you simply more comfortable/used to make them that way or is it something else?

Their voices would be different, yes, but not by much. Probably just more high-pitched. Note: I imagine Venus’s voice would be less low, but still have that iconic gravely effect to it.

As for the different gender things, I base my character designs off of the gods the planets were named after. Venus in mythology is the goddess of love, and both Earth and Luna are also portrayed as feminine. Because of this choice, other characters will also be portrayed as a different gender as well, such as Io, one of Jupiter’s concubines according to her respective myth.

This would also mean Ceres would be the female, since their name is based after the goddess of agriculture. But due to the way Ceres is wearing a large hood and cape, with their features completely hidden, I honestly see them as less than of a person and more like a monster hiding in the dark— their gender doesn’t really matter when they’re hurling huge chunks of rocks at you. Speaking of nonbinary, Titan’s name is based off of beings that existed before the Olympians, goddesses and gods alike. Due to this, I’m thinking of making them not have a confirmed gender, but I might make them more masculine due to Solarballs’ choice to present them as a male.

Other characters’ genders might also change, such as Charon, who is a male in mythology. I look forward to designing these along the way!

Thanks for providing this opportunity for me to rant about this— I’ve wanted to do so for a very long time. <3

[solarballs-confessions]

For me the Earth is not overrated, as some in the fandom say

He is among the best written characters in Solarballs. Alredy from the first episodes you can notice the suffering that he tries to hide in every way. He is in pain all the time because of us, but when Astrodude apologizes to him for what we do to him, he immediately reassures him, telling him he cold handle it, and i wonder how much he really believed it.

His flaws, even before his arc, are always pointed out and how is behavior worsens is slowly built up, making it realistic

His arc is so well-written and so special to me, he's such a relatable character. His apology speech to Titan is, at least for me, the best scene of the entire series, it deserves a long post of its own

I know that seems like a confusing rant, I just wanted to write about the Earth and how much i love him🥰

.

[solarballs-confessions]

hi mod, idk if a rant ask counts as a confessions ask? jshsjs but i've got no one to rant to abt solarballs so wee, this ask shall bear the weight of it lol

prefacing this now: i've primarily only interacted with the gacha side of the fandom till now,only even recently started reading the fics lmao

even before i actually knew shit about sb, it was always kinda on my radar whenever id search for gcrv's to watch? i never touched it tho? but i was on a binging spree of epic the musical vids, so yeah i clicked on this fun lookin gacha vid abt the song 'god games'

.

yeah no that's where this shit started. i literally finished watching that video and dived right into the gcrv's and holy sHII, there's so fucking ✨many✨, and their all like 20+ mins long and the designs are so good??? the dialogue and plot is literally so fucking cool too. tbh i kinda made a lil mistake by starting off with the 'mythological solarballs au' react vids, since i was hella overwhelmed by everything LMAO

but that led to me finding out about broken au, then fast forward to permanent hatred au, second collision au and all that jazz. holy shit, the whole 'earth fucking dies then saturn and jupiter just go red eye whatever and go absolutely batshit', yeah no that shit grabbed me by the throat lol

didn't take me long to get emotionally invested to jupiturn, a surprise to absolutely no one 🧍‍♂️

but ugh i literally love this fandom and all the fanworks so damn much, like literally every single interpretation is just so chef's kiss to me LOL Jupiter's such a fun little character to tear apart and analyse though tbh every single one of these idiots are jshsjsh

also a very unfortunate side-effect, since like the past few days, neptune has just solidified his spot as my absolute fucking favourite even though i haven't watched the actual show yet (it's escaped for now lol, i wanna sit thru it properly tho hshjs) but yk how GHE is a hella famous thing in the fandom?

yeah no i can't touch any of it /lighthearted

the emotional devastation it brings to me, merely whenever i see like a neptune&iris thing in gcrv's and neptune's hurt or like- idk how to phrase it lol, but basically #neptune is not having a fun time, it legit hurts me 🧍‍♂️

not sure if it's cause broken au desensitized me, but earth angst doesn't really hurt me as much, tho i have only been in the fandom for like 2 weeks so idk much yet lol

UGHH I LOVE THIS FANDOM SMM, EVERYONE'S SO FUCKING CREATIVE AND EVERY SINGLE FANWORK IS ALWAYS SUCH A FUCKING TREAT GRAHHHH

(perks of also being a multishipper with no emotional attachments yet LMAO, all food is good food 👍)
