In syscourse news today, Aimkid continues to be harassed and slandered for supporting endogenic systems.

The part about Aimkid being endogenic is just a another anti-endo lie. Last I checked, Aimkid is a traumagenic DID system.

But when have anti-endos ever cared about truth? 🤷‍♀️

And there's more:

Remember, having a complex relationship with gender and sexuality as a trans person is literally transphobia now. /s

That seems like a perfectly reasonable reaction to finding out someone is accepting and supports the existence of other people. /s

That's just not at all how reclaiming works... 🙄

I wonder how many of the people attacking a DID systems for supporting endogenic systems are even systems themselves and how many are singlets looking for excuses to spread hate against systems for being different.

Anyway, here's a shout out to Aimkid for standing firm by her principles, and not letting herself be bullied into silence, even in the face of overwhelming hate!

The plural community appreciates it!

genuine question: do you think all anti endos harras pro/endos regularly? the way you word your posts kinda makes it seem that way lol

Not at all.

I just think they're all culpable.

Anti-endos all spread anti-endo lies and hate. That's the problem.

Sysmeds start with the lie that endogenic plurality isn't possible. Despite this being contradicted by numerous academic sources and professionals.

From there, they fearmonger. They present a false reality where endogenic systems are invaders pretending to have a disorder coming to destroy them and take away their healthcare.

This spreads from person to person.

Some will hear this fearmongering and resort to harassing endogenic and pro-endo systems. But those harassers do not exist in isolation. They had to be CREATED. Every single anti-endo who has ever repeated the lie that plurality can only come from trauma helped create the harassers and I blame all of them.

On top of that, most seem pretty okay with the harassment of pro endos.

How many anti-endos spoke up about Aimkid being bullied off of social media by sysmeds? How many spoke up about anti-endos harassing the Yaelokre server until it shutdown just because it was endo-neutral?

They spread hate and lies that cause harassment and then turn a blind eye when the harassment they caused happens, I think it's fair to blame them as a group for the mass harassment they perpetuate against endogenic and pro-endo systems.

They are sooo unhealthy <3

(also, I cant get a proper answer just by looking at things, what is going on with aimkid??)

Can we get a character design breakdown of OWS characters?

Now to begin. Otherworldly Spirits (Or just OWS) is a gijinka AU of Aimkid's OCs, which the characters there are supposed to be based off of or reference their original counterparts in some shape or form.

Now this picture is a silhouetted version of the main cast, now focus on their heads (except for Jerry and crop out the lower locks of the Walshe's hairs), while designing them I mostly try to make them seem similar towards their original counterparts without making them seem like different characters entirely... safe for the aforementioned Jerry-. Who I only managed to make similar to the blue dog by making his color palette strictly cool colored (Blues, dark teals, purples) as pictured below.

The way some of Aimkid's characters were redesigned as humans was that I had to keep some elements of their feral counterparts (that is not their ears and tails) into their gijinka versions is the way they were drawn, to properly elucidate, Violet (The femme presenting cat) still has their skin tone sclera (I.E No eye whites) that was present in cooking by the book's yellow cat.

While designing and making the AU versions what struck me as odd was the Yellow Cat, I've seen debates in youtube comment sections wondering if they're the same cat or not (Because both have oddly different designs down to their head shape, body and eyes, their pelt color also being in a different shade of yellow/orange) and to fix this issue all I had to do was create a confusing mitosis where I merge the two cats then split them so that both Violet (and their brother, Vinny) could still share some aspects of the cat's personality!

Now dear Asker/Viewer reading this, you may have noticed the subtle "V"s in this diagram, that's why I used it to name the Walshes... and their "V"s contributed into their last name (basically being a VV).

Now there are some Aimkid characters that were fully scrapped and were not added into the AU (though they exist in someway, basically not affecting the plot or interacting with the MCs). Seymour, Ron, Hugo and Mac are a great example of this, all of them are based off of songs by Lemon Demon (and only two were scrapped by Aimkid herself and the other was unfinished) but differ alot from their original counterparts

as in you wouldn't know who belonged to which unless they shared some similar attributes such as songs (This is very obvious with all four of them). This starts to become alot more problematic (for people guessing) if they're based off of a song that is unrelated to Lemon Demon. For example

Snowball (That's how she's referred to as professionally) is not based off of any song from Lemon Demon but she does have some semblances of "Indie Cindy" in her backstory (whom I'm going to share in the future), She's actually based off of "Can't" by Waterfront Dining. Some musical elements of the ghosts are actually vaporwave versions of classic songs and because Snowball doesn't have that Lemon Demon touch to her, she's practically stuck with Vaporwave instead. Even her artstyle reflects this as I based her physical appearance off of Josephine Baker. Now you may have heard "Artstyle" a little too much around here but I'd like to elaborate that it's very important in the context of this AU. There's emphasis with how different the characters look, not with the way they dress but the way they're drawn. Most of the OWS folk (safe for the ones non-Aimkid originals) are based off of the ways Aimkid draws her characters and how drastically different they can look from eachothers.

Translating cute, chibi, scenecore-esque characters into "Human" looking creatures is oddly fun because you can just experiment with how good (or hilariously bad) they might look. For example Darrel. Often at times for me he just looks like an oddly stylized JFK from Clone High (which funfact, before I was going to draw him, I planned his color palette by just recoloring JFK). In some cases if you look at Violet you'd be forgiven if you thought She was an obscure Hannah-Barbara character that has a small following (or just a blonde, clear eyed Velma).

The most obvious from the rest is Darrel. While designing him I had the UPA artstyle in mind due to how fluid, geometrical and bright SFM/Dipshit was and with how abstract UPA's artstyle is (and it's origins) it's just a match made in heaven! Jerry's more of a Adult Swim style, though neutrally he's Venture Bros. styled, once he regresses into a more unhinged state of mind he just ends up looking like... any unhinged montage from superjail. Violet and Vinny are both based off of Scooby Doo and Archie as both seem to handle the topic of mundane and supernatural, bonus! They're both owned and produced by The Warner Brothers (In Archie's case it isn't just had some movies and shows produced by the company). Now that's it for me breaking down my designs of my AU of Aimkid's OCs, hope this helps! :D
