I don't have a silly cheeky comment for this one besides it leans heavily on my headcanons and stuff on Grujaja. (that's how you know ur in the tranches for a character.)
^face of a guy that keeps hurtin his bonds w anyone close to him. Bonus doodles i made while drawing this that are semi related due to being tied to my Gr headcanons unda the cut lol:
#great god grove#ggg spoilers#ggg capochin#ggg grujaja#ggg gr#ggg hector#<- in the readmore lol#Capo is so used to my Grujaja just quietly doing what he asks even after the bizzyboys dissolve it throws him through a loop when told no#<- this is a fact ive drawn in past images. i did that on purpose. Grujaja doing what he's told no hesitation or input#spent 3/4s of his life following these guys and not having his own personal hobbies. or having many personal items. it was his life#devoted to a cause and what it stood for because to him it saved his life meanwhile its just another festering wound.#capo is also drunk and girlrotting#capo lashing out at things and going too far fans where are u im right here#also please note the use of “kid” to a 40 year old man.#Capo still seeing gr as a small scared kid despite it being 33 years later#and getting the smack in the face this guy is a more mature adult than he is#because capo straight up broke the one thing Gruja wore on him he really cared about and instead on attacking that man he just gets up#and walks away#i cope with my evil images by drawing tiny gr because he brings me joy lol. little animal.#anyeay sorry guys for the insanity sometimes it controls me like a puppet to commit crimes and heavy headcanoning

Everyone on here has such cool click clack ideas! like omg!!! I think it’s time that I share the one that I’ve made for an au idea I have, had them for about a week and I love them but I’m still trying to get details down for the au and all, still in the planning stage and like this is my first time really actually doing this.
Anyways, click clack design be upon you!



I turned him into a plushie guys and I love him!
More info/rant undercut
This au is gonna be on the more body horror side and I would love to info dump about it once my brain gives me more ideas to write down but honestly I think his design for the au turned out good, their modeled after a teddy bear and I tried to make the face and eyes similar to one as much as I could for just concept sketches
Anyways lemme know if anyone wants an info dump on the au,
been trying to get as much down as I can for it but obviously having your attention split while brain storming isn’t the best. Probably gonna make an info dump either way just the get the brain juices pumping but how much I share in an actual post is gonna depend on how willing I think people are to hear about it tbh. I don’t wanna talk about something nobodies gonna care much about
Um anyways new au idea underways, gonna try and write a story about it but I currently only have a beginning and vague concept of how I want it to end and nothing in between so far so we will see. Would love to trouble shoot with someone but I currently don’t have anyone to do that with so… feel free to reach out if you wanna try helping tho, i've got like litterally no friends in/into the comunitiy so it would be kinda nice
Probably gonna turn out sloppy but so is the ways of life, better to make sthat is bad then nothing at all
#art#my art#doodles#au concept#au concept art#plushie-o-fies your click clack#plushie click clack anyone#well he's not 100% a plushy but that more of explored in the concepts i have for it#throwing stuff at a wall here#guy has a felt mask stuck on top of his and is suffering is all im gonna say rn#slipping through my fingers and like any other good body horror concepts that i've found here on tumblr are definitly a big inspiration#for this#also those stories about unrequited love where they throw up flowers. yeah. big inspo from that#also the idea of click clack having two mouths or voices. one for narrating(behind mask) and one that he does his normal talking with#like they are connected but also like two seperate entities. love it. not going to be two seperate but connected entities in this tho but#i do use a concept of it#this is gonna be great#how we feel about ones emotions getting stuck in place without any way to change it and the panic that ensues. i have no mouth and#i must scream type stuff (probably. never read the book tho)#fan au#ggg au#great god grove au#click clack#concepts#turning click clack into a marketable plushie as one of my friends would say. not the methods she would have envisioned me#taking to achieve that end product tho may i add#my click clack design that im gonna throw into the mixing pot of designs people have for them#go my scarab#felt mask au#felt mask ggg au

The Rift is a God AU
“I’m done being sealed away every time. Now I’m my own god and nobody will take that away from me!”
I seen a lot of other ggg fan’s aus lately and then the idea hit me. Why not have an au where the Rift accidentally becomes its own person/god after the event of the game.
The Rift, the god of destruction and void.
The design has where the gown is shadow like while being torn and ruined for years. It has fairy-like diamond shaped wings. Their head tends to shift or glitch a lot with cracks.
Now I wanna say everyone in ggg fandom had actual inspired me with this idea. I’ll make a colored/digital reference of the Rift later on. Stay tuned!

Life Series winners decide the next season’s gimmick
I’ve seen this fun fan idea floating around and here’s my take on it
Grian: Ability to actually pledge a life to someone. Everything that happened in 3rd was due to his ep1 pledge to Scar, so this time if he makes a mistake he can actually give a life and move on. The Boogeyman was also added to more clearly delineate greens into passivity, since Grian’s green bodycount was so high.
Scott: Actually tie everyone together in alliances and go down with his teammate. His victory was one of vengeance for Pearl, and he didn’t want to be the last one standing again. Of course, that didn’t really work out as he planned. From a more manipulator perspective, he also wanted to see what the dynamics would be like.
Pearl: Didn’t have enough time to work things out with Scott in double life, they were interrupted by red chaos, so designed one where you could fight and make mistakes and die and still have time to fix things. She didn’t exactly rebuild any bridges with GGG, but it gave them all time to process.
Martyn: Wanted everyone to be aware of the Watchers and how they’re controlling everything. He’s been strung along for so long and winning Limited was the last straw. The Secretkeeper put a face to the evil, and now everyone’s aware there’s something more here.
Scar: Wanted everyone to understand what it feels like to be tripped up every episode and pulled around by the whims of the Watchers. The tasks gave some semblance of control (rerolling) but the wildcards are inevitable and crushing. Scar was railroaded into villainy, gaining the hostility of the server, and now he’s demonstrating that it’s out of anyone’s control. Even Grians
#trafficblr#life series#cleo only had 1 ep and it was meta so no character so sad. they would love the chaos of wild though#maybe if/when they do another special one off it’ll fit into the lore#i will make it happen through willpower#can you tell im very normal about victor’s guilt. can you tell i long for the angst#life series spoilers#i guess??

Thanks for humoring me :)
When the role swap happens will other character's roles be swapped around or is it only going to be just Click Clack and Inspekta? Also will Click Clack be the villain in the narrative at the end of the story or will it slowly shift from Inspekta to Click Clack and there's a period where Inspekta isn't really doing much because all the butterfly effects set him on a different path?
Oh also are you a fan of In Stars and Time?
1. Will other character’s roles be swapped?
Not quite? It’s a roleswap, but not a roleswap au if that makes sense. Though the other characters do sorta have A Disturbance as things are changed and there’s definitely moments of being like “huh, what was I doing. Something doesn’t feel right.” It’s less everyone’s getting swapped around and more that things keep getting shifted around to the point that everyone’s sorta starting to feel the effects, but no one can really place a finger on it until the wall cracks for Thespius and he’s finally aware of the narrative and therefore has the same sorta dev tool awareness that Click Clack has. Click Clack actually fucking despises the realization of him having been played into a roleswap once it hits him and he’s mentally shinji chair posing about it. It’s not at all planned from the start, either, during the whole story the narrative kinda doesn’t know what the fuck to do about click clack lmao. The Narrative never speaks or shows itself directly, but it’s as much a character as everyone else, so a lot of Break The Narrative is genuinely just click clack getting worse and the narrative being like oughhhhhh fuck my little guy is going crazy uh. Um. Like I cannot emphasize enough that the moment where Thespius gains awareness wasn’t a mastermind chess move it was The Narrative hitting itself with a metal bat in the hopes that maybe he could do something. So yeah hope that helps teehee
2. Have you played In Stars and Time?
I have, i ugly cried during the ending and I kin Mal Du Pays for reasons I will not be getting into. It’s an incredible game and I think people should play it. Sadly it didn’t stick as a fixation for me as strongly as something like GGG has but I love keeping up with fanart and such. isat good.

Hello! I gotta say, I was elated to see another GGG enthusiast on the internet, but I am in love with your depiction of Snake most of all. You capture the softness, particularity, and contemplation of him very well. Your display picture on Tumblr makes me ridiculously happy. ☺️💚🙏✨ When did you first start to like the Gangreen Gang? What first sparked your approval of them..? GGG for life. ☺️💚☣️🤟✨✨
I don’t even know where to begin with this ask, first of all THANK YOU!!!!!!!
You don’t understand how much this means to me, I’d hoped that my portrayal of Snake was coming off this way and to hear this really brightened my day sooooo much. You inspired me to draw him again, it’s been a little too long!!!
I’ve been a fan of Powerpuff Girls ever since I was tiny, and I liked them then, I had collectible cards with them on it (I wish I still knew where they were 🥲). I then developed a small infatuation with Ace when he joined Gorillaz in 2018, but this year I decided to rewatch Powerpuff Girls again from start to finish and it completely reawakened my love for them!!! It made me realize how much I loved Snake, and how much I resonated with his character. He’s just like me fr… I love him so much.
Thank you for your kind words. I hope you like the newest drawing I made of him :’D
#I’m so sorry it took me so long to reply I wanted to finish the drawing before replying#wowow like I can’t believe this still#this means everything to me#wow#answers#umbratticalksp

Actually FOR REAL taking a break from The CultAU
Boring sappy and depressing stuff below LOL
I’ve been working on it like it’s a 9 to 5 and I’ll be honest I might’ve crumbled
I also have needs attention and confirmation 24/7 disorder and that’s been stumping me from creating what I want in exchange for making stuff that everyone else wants. I want this AU to be on my terms Yknow and I gotta fight the evil and let it pass before I can work again. It’ll be fine.
I guess I also just gotta find my place in the community. I feel very awkward interacting with other GGG fans mostly because I can’t seem to find a place where I ‘fit’ and that’s probably just my evil mental illness makin me think that tho. I’m sure I’ll find something.
In the meantime, the askblogs will still be as active as they can and I don’t mind being interrogated still I just won’t be working :0
In the meantime I’ll be working on other writing projects and also…promptly changing my ao3 username

Some People don’t even know ace is from ppg
I KNOWWWWW the other day I saw someone ranting about how more people like Ace than Russel, even though Ace has only had one written line. and while that's true for Gorillaz... he's not FROM Gorillaz. he's from the Powerpuff Girls. he's not just some random guy, there's CONTEXT he's very popular in the ppg fandom! he is the MOST popular member of the gangreen gang. and the ppg fandom is sizable too! not so much the ggg side of it but the ppg fandom is MASSIVE and I don't think people, particularly the person who made the rant, understands this. Ace is not some random guy, Gorillaz fans aren't latching onto some random guy just for the heck of it and leaving Russel in the dust, no,
POWERPUFF GIRLS FANS ARE LATCHING ONTO ACE TO SEE WHERE HIS STORY GOES. that is what's happening. and I don't think people comprehend this when they complain about Ace's popularity. and it's incredibly funny to me that you would considering... his tag is dead, it's deceased
there are things to like about Ace besides his appearance in Gorillaz, and the reason I think Ace fans are louder in expressing their disappointment is because they had this awesome crossover and then did nothing with it. Ace fans are upset because they came to see what he's doing now, and they did not get an answer (wheres his gang? whats he been doing all these years? whats his personality like these days? none of them got an answer, he just played the bass and fucked off. heck we didnt even get to learn how he LEARNED the bass- when in the comics he outright stated he did not know any instrument). he's a great character in ppg, he's funny, he's full of personality, it would've been awesome to see what he's up to now, and we didn't get to. HE HAS A BACKSTORY. he has backing, he is not just a random guy. calm the fuck down people 💀
do I think Russel should get love? absolutely. but it's unfair to compare him to Ace because their situations are entirely different. also I encourage you to show your love for Russel instead of complaining about him getting no love, that's what i did with Ace! be the change, give the love you want
plus, my favorite original member of Gorillaz, besides Ace, is Russel, so it's really funny they say that specifically. I dunno it feels targeted at me and some other people since I'm sorta known as the Ace Guy and it'd be funny to see them realize Russel is my second favorite lmfao

The Purgatory event and the new Traffic/Life series happening at the same time is really making me think about my personal frustrations with mixing storytelling oriented roleplay and structured or rules oriented gameplay
I'm obviously not saying you can't mix those successfully, but for me at least there are some grey areas between the two where it just becomes extremely frustrating to me, to the point that I can't enjoy it and often get actually mad about it
(I know, I know, I should be more mature about it, whatever, I'm being mature by trying my best to shut up, at least in public)
Basically my problem is that if you're gonna mix these two types of playing, there's basically only two options I find satisfying:
1. keep the roleplay very light and non-serious while focusing on the structured gameplay (some fudging of the rules for the sake of roleplay is fine if it makes things more fun)
2. make the gameplay and the rules just the setting/starting off point and from there the roleplay and storytelling should always be the priority (obviously some occasional handwaving is fine but it should never be anything that seriously breaks character or gets in the way of what would be the most interesting direction for the story)
The problem is that between these two there's option 1.5, which is where both styles of play are equally mixed, and that's where the danger zone lies for me.
I think the best case scenario for me is when it's option 1 turning gradually into option 2. I'm sort of fine with that direction, because I just love roleplay and storytelling. What REALLY gets to me though, is when option 2 suddenly starts moving towards option 1.
The best example of this for me is the Last Life SMP finale, which I'm just still so mad about and no I have no chill, if I seem chill about it, it's because I'm censoring myself to be polite. They had the perfect set up for Scott and Pearl, the two survivers of the GGG, and Rendog and Martyn, the two survivers of the Shadows and also characters connected through a bond that crossed over from Third Life, to go head to head in a final battle, but crucially staying loyal to their teammates to the end. But nahhhhh clearly what we should do instead is just ignore all preceding character arcs and just do a basic ass four person battle royale round. And then unceremoniously kill the winner immediately after so they can't even do one last thing before they go.
(Sorry Last Life fans, I think that's like most people's favourite season, or that's the impression I have. I did say that I was holding back purely out of politeness. I actually have zero chill about this. I even had to delete some lines that were getting a bit too salty just now.)
But yeah, the reason why I had to stop watching Purgatory on day one was because I was getting that same feeling of frustration because it felt like they were going from peak dramatic roleplay to suddenly doing a random ass PVP tournament with random ass teams. I mean to be fair there is a story excuse for it because there's that eye entity or whatever that's making the players do this in-universe, but still, it was getting to me. I wasn't having a good time and I was getting mad so I decided I needed to quit and hear from others later whether it would even be worth watching for me.
Still not entirely sure if I like this arc, but I've calmed down enough to give it a shot
Just trying to analyse why I have these reservations. And yes I know it's personal preference and most people probably don't feel this way or at least not as intensely about it. I know a lot of people understandably enjoy the variety and that's fine. I'm just explaining my perspective.
I guess it really is mostly just about feeling jebaited as a fan of roleplay and storytelling.

i call grief my night-wound 2,072 words T-rated, chose not to use archive warnings, gen stagblings canon divergent au i wrote where scott gives up his childhood memories to "fix" xornoth. it does not do the trick. fic about the palpable absence of pain and how avoiding things does not fix them
Gem moved towards Scott. ���Last chance,” she said quietly. “I’m fine,” Scott said, rolling his eyes. “Really.” Gem gave him a studying look, then breathed out of her nostrils, as if she’d been holding in a breath. “Fine. Your choice.” “Duh,” Scott said. “It’s all good.” He gave her a thumbs up. The pit in his stomach growled as if conspiring to swallow him whole. -- Scott finds a way to fix Xornoth. It's simple, really. The price? Just give up your childhood memories.
learn to love without consuming 2,580 words T-rated, chose not to use archive warnings, gen GGG fic that's part of a larger last life sci-fi au i'm working on; a vignette about scott, cleo, and pearl. you do not have to read the whole series to understand this one, but it is one of the more plot focused installments
Scott stood slowly, feeling the bones in his hips groan and complain. “I hope this is a short trip. I’m not a fan of the capital.” “Me neither,” Pearl sighed. “We’ll be quick. None of us are thrilled about this.” They scratched absentmindedly at the stitch on their cheek. Birds circled overhead, cawing and screeching. The sun beat on the back of Scott’s neck, and he felt sweat crawl down his back. -- Scott has a good life with Pearl, and more recently, Cleo; pasts come back to haunt them.
when I roll over and the empty sky is perfect 2,939 words G-rated, no archive warnings apply, m/m & gen 3rd!life martyn on season9 hermitcraft. trust me it's thematic i promise. also i do what i want i dont care about timelines. martyn learns to exhale.
The mooshroom island was quiet. Martyn had never been on a mooshroom island, or at least not in a proper while. The lack of hostile mobs on the island was more uncomfortable than he thought it would be, and the first few nights he absolutely could not sleep. Ren held him in his arms in the twin sized bed by the Nether portal, and Martyn stared at the pulsating purple light. One night, a few weeks in, Ren had fallen asleep slumped against a chest in the office of GigaLogs. Zombies groaned outside the sawmill and Martyn took a diamond axe from Ren’s gear and wandered out into the courtyard. He swung the axe into legions of undead, the axe that didn’t even have Sharpness I or II, and it didn’t fix anything. -- -- After 3rd Life, Martyn ends up on Hermitcraft 9.
TUMBLR
wither rose alliance (pearl POV) talks about the revived sausage about mourning someone alive
a series of 9 drabbles (strictly 100 words) about What if E2 Gem was E1 Gem (au explained better in tags) about mourning and moving on
pearl and scar have a talk in a dream (pearl POV) (secret life)
first person grian POV double life snippet about not saying what you want to say and not saying what others want to hear
you know what I haven’t seen going around in a while, and could use some of myself? fic recs! so, consider this both a rec and a self-promo post: recommend some fics to me in the reblogs and I’ll reblog your recs! in general, try to include both a summary and why you’re reccing it (whether it’s a self-promo or someone else’s), and let’s get some eyes on fics!
#had to think SO carefully about what i wanted here.#but i decided to include three of my own long(ish)fics and a few snippets#i may.... reblog this again later and add friendfic.#replies

RL!Majormoon ramble
btw majormoon nation, just so you know, i am 100% counting Real Life as canon, which means there WILL be more majormoon content on my behalf. And if you got the time, from yours too <3 [not forcin yall tho]
Here's a few first thoughts, under the cut
1. Okay so i know i know not everything they say is in character. BUT. Scott mentioned GGG teaming up being YEARS ago. And i wanna take it as. Yes. Yes the season do happen throughout years, which makes sense with how their dynamics change and grow! Also they are aware of this time it seems??
2. Cleo called Pearl mum. And ik some moonrot fans will probably riot at me for this. But people still ship clethubs even after LimL soooo im just sayin. This is just silly rp in-canon that applies to this series, just like the clocker family, even tho they keep usin that joke
3. Scott and Pearl bicker like a married couple*, but not in a bad way, they laugh it off and all.
4. Majormoon is faithed btw.**
So i propose to you all. How about RL!GGG as a married couple and their child.... Majormoon married arc... and they adopted tiny Cleo...
*here the married couple lighthearted bickering
P: "How did you not notice, man? Cmon this is real life! You dont notice your own friend died?"
S: "Im sorry im getting chased by an enderman thats screaming at me. I've got my own problems."
P: "Well, that sounds like a you problem.."
S: "I was also dealing with that. You were mining. Where were you?"
P: "I was mining- i was getting- i was mining emeralds.. that obviously cant be mined with a stone pickaxe so it was completely useless and a waste of time.."
S: "You didnt hear the entire conversation me and Cleo had about emeralds?"
P: "... Nope.."
[Scott laughs]
**ALSO, here the faithed stuff...
P: "I like how its always us three..."
S: "Yeah"
P: "All the time, we- we dont intend to- to link up but it just keeps happening.. every single time"
S: "Its just faith!"
Like. I am not okay. I am so not okay. That was not a three. I know it was meant to be a two at first that changed to three last second.
Majormoon believers. They really are faithed. Its canon. Ik its a stretch but idfc. I said this before and I'll say it again. Theyre together in every single universe they get to share idc idc.
Btw my sister is getting me into outsiders and mentioned Scott makes a cameo as a show host or whatever. So uhm yeah once i finish that series im making Pearl his co-host and husband.

I got news of character designer and animator Takahiro Kimura's passing at age 58. Honestly, it feels a bit surreal to hear someone die at such a fairly young age.
I'm not going to pretend that I'm a big fan of all the series he's done designs for (I think GGG and Code Geass are overrated and I dislike Goddanar because it's clear everyone there worked on it with one hand, if you know what I mean.) But there is one work he did that meant a lot to me:
And that is Gun X Sword. Other than being my bf's second favorite anime, it's honestly in my top 10 favorite anime of all time. Other than simply being an entertaining ride, it's one of those anime series where the basic summary is so simple, you might pass it over, but it's the ride you go on that makes it so amazing. That's because Gun X Sword is a deconstruction of the vengeance plotline you will see in most media. I'll do a longer post some other day on it, but I also recommend watching it. It's a series that means a lot to me.
Rest in peace, Takahiro Kimura.

Observer Anon here. Your answer, as respectful as its tone was, seems to say, "Leaving the fandom is an overdramtic reaction. Just don't cross the lines this fandom has decided are unacceptable, and you should not feel uncomfortable in this space." Unfortunately, that's not how these things work, at least not in my experience. I am of the belief that these issues, for example, the Yandere Tobey concept, are not black and white, yes and no issues. I do not believe a space for 13+ users need be managed like a space for children aged 7 to 10 years. Frankly, I am still appalled that aging up Tobecky to teenagers and writing about mature topics, whether sexual or violent, in their relationship, is considered unredeemably and unambigiously terrible. How do fans imagine fanchildren come to be? Granted, children don't have to be the result of intercourse, but they can be, and it seems ridiculous to outlaw the action of speaking of that. I understand that many Wordgirl fans have traumatic histories regarding immature adults in fandoms for children's properties. Those adults' utter lack of boundaries and their often malicious intent toward vulnerable youth are inexcusible. Abuse of real world people, especially those unable to fight for themselves, is wrong, but... again, children have no business on the open internet at a young age, and young teenagers should be educated in internet safety. How is the failure of our society to provide this education taken as evidence that adult spaces have no place in fandom for children's media? Why must the Wordgirl community be an implict symbol of this inconsistent, hypocritical agenda against unofficial, unlicensed creative works using children's show characters to discuss or explore mature topics? I see the outrage against EC extremists, as well as the bi/transphobia used to silence those who support "het" ships, yet I see the same fandom members claim to be uncomfortable with portrayls of Becky, Tobey, or really any character but Miss Power becoming violent. Hell, in this fandom, it is seen as morally incorrect to consider GGG and episodes like it as part of canon! And yet I am told that if I do not 100% believe in the rhetoric of this fandom, I am not welcome. Sure, one can keep silent on their opinions and thoughts on these complex and emotionally-charged matters, but for how long can someone last in that situation? It feels disingeniuous. People would not want to be friends with someone who does not live by the rhetoric. It feels as if someone is a sheep dog that, in fear of being perceived as a wolf, dresses in sheep's clothing. It is all these emotions, all these feelings of being an imposter, that makes someone like myself feel that it would be best if I left. Yet, it seems I have reached a point where if I were to cut ties with this fandom, a fandom who has been nothing but loving as long as I wear my wool, my departure would cause even more problems. I feel trapped. It seems it is only a matter of when I leave rather than if I leave, despite my completely lack of hope that I can, in fact, properly disconnect myself from this community on good terms, or even with a shred of my diginity left.
It... hurts, to think I have to leave. I will miss this community dearly. Leaving behind all my creative ideas and the lovely conversations about Wordgirl and the wonderful show it is will be extremely painful. I really do not want to become a controversial figure. I cannot handle the stress from such a thing.
I get out of work and come home to a novel in my asks.
Mah dude, I had to re-read this a couple of times and I still don’t understand what you’re trying to say. I feel like I got send a copypasta.
Internet safety for minors? Of course. Should we play a part in guiding them through it? We could, but not our responsibility either. The Wordgirl fandom luckily has the advantage that while not small, it’s not AS BIG to where a problem can spiral out of control.
The gore/violent content in the fandom... yeah it’s very much present. And I will repeat myself that artists can only go so far and do so much to prevent their undesired audience from reaching that content, altho I will say tagging should be something to keep in mind when doing so.
Wolf in wool? Yeah, also agree. I know so many people in this fandom that have said, created or done something that would get them blacklisted or at least disliked if it got out. And no, it’s not THAT type of action or content, if you’re wondering. So everyone is just wearing their own type of... wool, and I feel silly as hell saying it like that.
At the end of the day, it all comes down to whatever each person finds acceptable or not in their own perspective. I’ve had friends that have gotten into quarrels because of different ideas and beliefs and it does hurt me, but I know each person is different.
At least that’s what I tried to understand from this ask.
