Western Godzilla inspired fan continuity : a different kaiju faction
Now, Godzilla Unleased introduced the idea of formalized kaiju "factions"
Earth Defenders: An alliance of Godzilla and Mothra's allies and acquaintances.
Global Defense force: The human controlled mechs and Jet Jaguar
Aliens: Work for alien invaders
Mutants: Power hungry or distrustful. They just distrust eachother less than they do the other factions and are impressed by power. A temporary alliance if anything.
And quite a few DeviantArt artists liked that, it was fun. However what works for a global spanning apocalyptic event might not work with all tone/setting/ plot ideas
"Mutants" (a terrible name really, when their unifying ethos has nothing to do with origin), was interesting because it had no real prior basis in the franchise unlike the other.
However, there is a faction idea I have not seen much of
A horde/swarm
Tumblr media
Generally Aesthetic: Creepy crawlies turned giants: arachnids, lizards, insects.
Examples of precursors to this can be found by the adoptive family of Desert Monsters that escaped from a lab (plus Varan) in Scott Ciencin's Godzilla Invades America and Godzilla: Journey to Monster Island; the Kamacuras swarm in the Godzilla 2000 novel by Marc Cerasini; and the Area 51 episode of Godzilla the Series that showed some mutants peacefully cohabitating in their enclosures.
Building mainly on the first, this is a new type of faction of kaiju: a full on migratory community that builds temporary nests, where adult members that don't pull their weight face expulsion (like the prank-loving scorpion monster Sasori in Godzilla Invades America, who was not interested in capturing humans to feed to the younger monsters in the nest)
The membership is fluid, taking in new members and ejecting those that refuse to share food.
Beginning with escaped experiments, other kaiju of different origins (prehistoric, atomic mutations, or experiments in different locations or by other people) could join them in their travels.
Why such different species are capable of working together may lie in the exact nature of the classified experiments (attempts to make a kaiju army capable of working together most likely). [It did not get explained in children's book where Ant-man style size-changing technology was the main plot device]
Kamacuras
Kamacuras and Kumonga, a giant mantis and spider from the Godzilla films, were the founders of the horde of giant desert creatures in Scott Ciencin's books.
Multiple Kamacuras were shown as cooperative hunters in their first appearance on film, and instead having them just be prey Kumonga, both Scott Ciencin and Jacqueline Dwyer (writer of the children's picture book Godzilla on Monster Island) teamed the spider and mantis up. Scott's books even had Kamacuras carry Kumonga while flying.
(Scott Ciencin also made Kamacuras a brawler like an actual mantis rather than cannon fodder, taking on Godzilla in single combat and less flammable.)
Random thoughts for Kamacuras
(I've proposed in the past a warped symbiosis where Kamacurus are brood parasites of Kumonga and feeding on its eggs, making them mantis flies rather than mandtids, )
If want to get warped, you could have a leader Kamacuras feeding other Kamacuras that fail to dethrone them to Kumongal or threatening to only to pull them back at last moment
Kamacuras dipping its claws in the venoms and poisons of allies could be an interesting way to make them a greater threat
Hana-Barbera Godzilla
The Valley of the Giants episode has some examples of other giant insects
Godzilla the Series
Many creatures from Tristar's Godzilla the Series could be repurposed for such a faction, such as the
giant rats,
The Giant Widow spiders brood,
the giant water beetle,
Giant Bees and Giant termites, and their queens
Batty the giant bat (even works with how many of the original monsters in Godzilla: Journey to Monster Island have cutesy names)
the area 51 monsters: the giant armadillo, and thorny devil
From Godzilla: King of the Monsters by Marvel:
I could see Doctor Demonicus' creations having the proper aesthetics for a horde of monsters. While in the book they could not leave the lair for long without dying from lacking a special form radiation they depended on, that can easily be dropped.
Ghilaron: giant lizard. has a saillike fin like a bassilisk lizard, and a backward curving large horn that brings to mind parasauralophus
Centipor: Giant wormlike thing with many legs that look soft and rubbery like a toy. ( I think looks more like a deep sea woerm of some kind. Has many antenna and what may be feelers or prooboscids a random-seeming pattern on head. Has a very different design on the cover of their comic.
Lepirax: Butterfly inspired monster with jaws instead of a proboscis. An agile flier that goes after smaller targets such as helicopters in their comic appearance, mostly ignoring Godzilla at first. Could be combined design-wise with Dark Horse's concept art for an unuse Mothra-like monster for their Godzilla comic series. The scary American posters for Mothra (1961) could also be an inspiration for a design.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Batragon, the most powerful of Demonicus' creations, a combination of bat and Komodo dragon, (and smart enough it could be trained to immobilize ships without destroying cargo) could also fit if they lose a master commanding them and go rogue.
Related monster idea
Ts-eh-GO
Tumblr media
A trained giant scorpion under the employ the U.S army, the plot dumbly has the army betray and try to kill it after a cheaper bioweapon of a swarm of smaller scorpions is developed.
But honestly in a more continuity driven story , a human government having a kaiju under their control with mixed feelings about and could be tied to the mystery and intended goal of the labs of members of a swarm mentioned above. Ts-eh-go (who needs a slightly different name as it's just the Navajo word for scorpion enunciated slowly) could be their only success. Ts-eh-go in their episode seems to cause psychic disturbances with one character having prophetic nightmares about it. While just a weird plot point , it could be turned into a thing where the creature just gives "bad vibes" to psychically sensitive as a side effect of experiments. Like the opposite of Mothra.

Finally finding someone who appreciates Between the Devil and Desire as much as I do, I honestly cannot believe the first book is more popular when JACK DODGER EXIST, that man is on my top 5 historical romance heroes
Lol look man... I really need to re-listen to the first book, because I remember it being fun, but I don't recall DETAILS the way I can so vividly with Between the Devil and Desire. I'm not shading The Devil in Her Bed, I'm sure I'll love it when I re-listen (I mean I gave it 4 stars on GR) but I know I read Between right after and it was like a mental RESET.
(I also like Surrender more than The Devil in Her Bed--if I'm being honest, I think I remember TDiHB the least.)
I think that what I do find a little frustrating about TDiHB, and maybe... not to sound like a snob, but maybe this is why it's so big lol... I find it a lot more basic than a lot of other Lorraine books? Yes, Luke is a ~devil~ suspected of murder, yes Catherine approaching him the way she does is wild. But Catherine is like, this gently bred innocent in a lot of ways--compared to Olivia, who is refined as hell but also has a stick up her ass and experienced marriage and is a mother and has become rather jaded in a lot of ways, or Frannie who's been so wounded by the world and keeps people at arm's length.
I do wonder sometimes if it's less a hero comparison thing that makes it more popular (because dude, I am sorry, but JACK DODGER HAS THAT SAUCE) but a heroine comparison. Catherine is just the kind of heroine I know a lot of readers find more palatable. She's more conventional in a lot of ways--spirited highborn virginal lady. Olivia is, frankly, kind of a bitch lol, which is one reason why I love Between. Frannie is sweet but she's also kind of an ice queen, and I know a lot of people actually really dislike her because Luke thought he was in love with her? Which? Lmao how is that her problem? She literally tells him constantly "I am not right for you, I'm not right for anyone, I can't give you what you need and I love you as a brother". Hell, JACK TELLS LUKE THAT ALL THE TIME. I really like Luke, but he was honestly violating a lot of Frannie's boundaries--with the best of intentions, sure, but she was not this "other woman" to Catherine in any way except in Luke's (and by extension Catherine's) heads. I also think that Frannie being this untouchable beauty that all of the Scoundrels are kind of in love with in a boyish way is something that triggers a lot of female readers, but lol, that's again not on her, it's basically because she was the only girl around when they were younger and they all have a lot of damage about not "protecting" her
(Which is also why Frannie ending up with Sterling is so important--he doesn't put her on a pedestal once he gets to know her, and the Scoundrels always will. He loves her as a human woman.)
But yeah. Jack Dodger outsells, and his and Olivia's book outsells. I forgot that after he surprises her in the beginning of the book by waiting for her in the carriage, causing her to do a whole squeak/jump, she does the same to him later and he's like "OHMIGOD" and hits his head on the roof lol. Like, the book deals with a lot of heavy shit and it's very romantic, but their dynamic is SO funny? After they have sex for the first time she's like "you're so good at that" and he's all "I mean yes but thank you for reaffirming". He takes her and Lovingdon out dressed as little street rats and she's doing a deep voice like "BLOODY HELL" and Lovingdon is imitating her and she's all "no no no mommy was just doing a bit" while Jack watches with like, total adoration????
I really forgot how batty Olivia was too? Like halfway through the book she's all "Jack I have a secret" and he expects her to be all "I want you" but instead she goes "I MURDERED MY HUSBAND" and his immediate reaction is "I'm sure.... you're confused...." (And she is lmao.)
I just think it's one of Lorraine's finest and it deserves the flowers. 10/10 "Jack Dodger doesn't care he absolutely doesn't care actually she's pretty annoying really it would be better if she was dead but he is going to spend hours watching her sleep and put her in an ice bath and talk to her about her weird clock collection that he finds oddly endearing" points.

💀 for the scoundrel, 🃏 for caeru, 🐀 for both
putting this under a cut bc it got surprisingly long (blame the cardsru question)
💀 What's their relationship with the Boatman like?
Ever since she finished Evolution and picked the Naturalist's fate? Not exactly swell. He's not exactly pleased about her choice, and she hasn't exactly gotten any better at chess. And she has a bad habit of dying. A lot. Usually in really stupid ways (such as trying to fight two dozen tigers, to name a completely absurd and definitely totally absolutely not recent hypothetical)
To keep a long story short: They don't get along. Most of their boat visits these days are spent in silence. Or vague small talk. Or awkwardly trading weasels back and forth. The Scoundrel tries to avoid him... mostly. Emphasis on the "tries" part of that sentence.
-
🃏 What would be/will be their name and domain as a Master?
I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED BECAUSE MASTER!CAERU IS SO BASED AND ALSO HAS BEEN HAUNTING ME.
Aaanyway, despite myself, as unequivocally funny as the nickname "Cardsru" might be, I don't think it'd end up being his domain in quite the same way it is for the Scoundrel*.
Instead, I could see him being a way more general hoarder of knowledge, if that makes any sense? Facts, histories, lore both mundane and eldritch in nature, everything he could get his grubby little batty hands on. He'd trade in secrets and clues, acting as an information broker for anyone able to pay the price for his services. The price in question, of course, being a trade in mysteries of equal or greater worth to what he's giving up- street gossip for street gossip, arcane secrets for arcane secrets, maybe even the results of an especially chainbreaking experiment for a few dozen notes on tests of his own making.
He wouldn't be kind. And he wouldn't accept lies or forgery. But he'd always be fair, and he'd always look the other way when it mattered most. And if rumor on the street claims he's the most revolutionary of the Masters, the most destructive of their own ranks and ties, the council's man on the inside, the one who heralds the Liberation and welcomes its embrace with open claws-
Well. You'd need to trade a particularly enticing bit of information to learn the truth, wouldn't you?
His name is trickier to imagine. Mr Arcana sounds cool. Or maybe Mr Memoirs. Mr Enigma? Whatever he is, he'd be Mr Pages' worst nightmare, and he'd absolutely revel in it.
*and the scoundrel would actually have an entirely different spacebat special interest if they Actually Got A Say In Things! unfortunately they very much do not.
-
🐀 Are they friends with any rats?
At this point? Considering how many actions I've spent grinding fourth city echoes at LB Industries? There's no way the Scientist doesn't have a whole rat social network going. He probably gets along great with the little buggers. Inventor for inventor behavior. I haven't played Dream of a Thousand Tails yet, but he'd probably be best friends with the Piebald Dreamer if/when they ever meet.
Overall though, he's just a weird ratty guy! He respects rats!! Even if he tries to eat them sometimes. Unaccountably peckish, and all that. You know how it is.
The Scoundrel, by comparison, tends to see rats as vague annoyances at best. They tolerate their existence, but it's pretty much just that- toleration.
They'll be buddy-buddy with rats for as long as it suits their own interests. And as soon as those interests diverge from the rat's own?
...it's probably best to get the heck out of dodge before they get caught in the inevitable crossfire of whatever hairbrained scheme the Scoundrel happens to be pursuing at that particular moment.

Mr. Mustard’s Background
Mr. was born in California and lived in the rich touristy neighborhood of Los Altos Hills with his Golden Retriever parents. They were known for their wealth and power in the business world, mainly because his parents were involved in many famous stocks.
When thinking about having Mr., his parents mainly thought about using him to boost their public image. However, down the line, they came up with a horrible plan: Abandon Mr., and if another family takes him in, make it look like they kidnapped him. They wanted to do this because they wanted to create a national drama, and they also wanted more money. So, on the night of a thunderstorm, they left Mr. near an apartment complex in an area that was the opposite of theirs.
While coming home, recently kicked out Tabs and Melanie Mustard (Tabby Cat and Rat) were returning back when they found Mr. curled up in a corner. Because they were grabbing the rest of their belongings, they had on hand a Walkman and a Thunder Jacket. After slipping the gear on, they took him back to their apartment.
In the morning, they started to get to know each other over a breakfast of pancakes. While talking, Mr. learned that Tabs and Melanie were kicked out because their parents learned that they were in a relationship. They also decided to both go by Melanie’s last name because it “pissed off her old man.” (This was not in official documents however, because same sex marriage was still illegal.) During this time, the two girls also learned that Mr. liked mustard on his pancakes.
After a little while, it got out that Mr. was staying with the Mustard family after they tried to get Mr.’s documents set up. This set off the lawsuit plan in motion. Luckily, they were able to gather enough evidence of what occurred and won the lawsuit. This helped them finally gain custody of Mr. and it gave them the money they needed to live comfortably. Mr.’s old parents were also sent to prison because of the previous charges, and it was also found that they were doing illegal activities within the stock market.
After the lawsuit was done, Mr. became a bit of a celebrity. He appeared in talk shows all over the US, and even made an appearance in a movie that was made based off of his story. Because of his involvement with television, he learned that he had a liking towards acting and decided to go to school for it.
During all of this, he got it in his head that his audience and colleagues only liked him when he was happy. This ideology first grew roots with his original parents. Whenever he became sad, his dad would say “It was counterproductive,” and his mom would say “It’s bad for business. It runs on company time.” To keep up this mindset, he became addicted to AntiDepressants.
After he was done with school, he started to get movie gigs and guest appearances in TV shows. This got the attention of Lola Tilly, who was looking for a roommate character for her upcoming sitcom “Batty Banter.” While she knew of the famous lawsuit, she wanted Mr. because she knew that he would make a good foil for her character in the show.
Mr. was interested in the show, but what sold him on it was the fact that it was going to have him play “the gay roommate.” In all of his roles, he was never allowed to fully be himself unless it was in a documentary. He also was sold on the show because there were other gay characters being portrayed and behind the writers room as well. In this time, this was a taboo thing, so the fact that he could be a part of this encouraged him.
Mr. helped figure out the main conflict of the story with there being an abandoned child, with obvious main inspiration from his experience with abandonment.
While being friends with Lola, he also got to meet her agent Chestnut Elmers, who he may or may not have a liking to….

Why? Because they were made up! “Oh, but that’s different, it was Shakespeare!” So?? Just because he’s famous and dead doesn’t mean he has any more right to make up words than anyone else.
And if you want to go even further, language as a whole is made up. You think we found these words hanging out in the wild? No! Every single word is made up. So if you truly have a problem with neopronouns because they’re “made up”, I want you to stop talking. Right now. No more words out of your mouth, or flowing from your pen, or typed on your keyboard ever again. If you can’t accept some words just because they’re new, you don’t have language privileges any more. Good luck trying to communicate.

Running list of things I personally find questionable about BBC’s The Watch:
Everything that they’ve done to Lady Sybil. She’s quite explicitly a big middle aged woman who is absolutely batty about her pets in way that other people can’t understand. And she’s also got a romance storyline and that’s very cool and does not need girlbossification
Angua. First, she should have long, luscious hair because that then directly translates across to being her wolf fur. She’s also just been simplified into the basic “I am a monster….. lock me up” werewolf storyline that has been so overdone that Sir Terry decided to subvert it in his books
Sam Vimes is supposed to be scruffy however I think that this Vimes looks less ‘scruffy in a doesn’t take care of himself way’ and more like a grimy little rat man. I’m finding it hard to sympathise with his character, because I think he seems to be suffering from Stereotypical Man Pain, which I generally do not enjoy
Cheery and Carrot seem to come from two totally different dwarf cultures?? Where Cheery’s from they can be tall but only have one gender and where Carrot’s from they have a gender binary but no tall people?? Confusing
The imps still paint pictures, except now the pictures come out on a smart tablet thing? Absolutely terrible blending modern tech with fantasy elements because it doesn’t make sense
I don’t like Death’s voice. It seems as though it is impossible to gain the effect that I felt while reading the books audibly
Cut Me Own Throat Dibbler is another very specific parody of a very specific character that got turned into something the writers found more interesting but isn’t really
Nobby and Colon not being in the show reaaallly suggests to me that they’re unaware that the books are partially a parody of police tv shows, and also unaware of the fact that sometimes comic characters can be fun to watch; not everybody has to have angst

Hellzarockin' with Ghost, Volbeat at DCU Center
Tumblr media
Owing a lot to the KISS school of demonic dress-up and the Black Sabbath school of devil music, Ghost has been steadily taking the U.S. by storm with its over-the-top theatrics, blasphemous satanic imagery that would even scare the bejesus out of Ozzy Osbourne and, most importantly, great tunes that you can sink your molars into.
And every time they tour, Ghost's stage show gets bigger and better.
Wearing a monochromatic marching band uniform with shoulder epaulettes and gold trim, Ghost’s frontman Tobias Forge came out as a combination song-and-dance macabre man/unholy ringmaster for his three rings of hell circus.
In the guise of Papa Emeritus IV, Forge’s true face was hidden underneath his signature skeletal greasepaint and prosthetic mask  but his intentions were quite clear and that was to put on a show.
While I’m not sure if they were trying to cash in on the latest steampunk craze, cautious about catching COVID or confused about whether they were attending a Doctor Who convention or performing a concert, the eight “Nameless Ghouls” (including two guitarists, a bass player, a drummer, two keyboardists and two backup vocalists) that make up Forge’s backup band were sporting vintage gas masks, matching black blazers and knee-high leather boots.
Forge led his gaggle of ghouls into a scorching 75-minute, 15-song set list made up of fire-and-brimstone assaults on the senses.
Tumblr media
With a stage setup complete with gothic-looking mausoleums, a massive drum riser and a pair of minirisers for spotlighting guitar solos, Ghost opened with the crunchy rocker “Kaisarion,” a new one from the band’s fifth full-length studio album “Impera.” Despite not being released until March 11, it already sounds like another winner and concert staple for the Swedish rockers.
The evening’s master of blasphemy Forge led the crowd into a singalong during the fist-pumping chorus of “Rats,” loosely based on the Black Death that wiped out half of Europe’s population in the 14th century - not the recent rodent problem in Worcester.
And the blasphemous hits continued, including the mosh pit-friendly rocker “From the Pinnacle to the Pit” and the sacrilegious singalong “Mary on a Cross.”
Forge proved to be absolutely batty, both figuratively and literally, on the Grammy-winning, crowd-pleasing showstopper “Cirice.”
Slinking on the fog-covered stage, Forge flapped around with artificially attached bat wings and sank his fangs into lyrics about feeling the uneasiness in one’s heart.
“Hunter’s Moon,” which is featured on the soundtrack of last year’s “Halloween Kills” soundtrack, proved to fits nicely in the Ghost repertoire with its spooky imagery of graveyard rendezvous, childhood haunts and unfinished homicidal business.  
Ghost scorched the stage on the damnation ditty “Year Zero.” Starting off with Gregorian-inspired chants namedropping Lucifer and his various Christian names, Forge paraded on stage with one of his sacrilegious papal getups as ready-made hellfire erupted from behind the altar.
Coming out with a sparkling baby blue sequin jacket and a skinny black scarf, Forge closed the main set by promising the audience riches beyond their greedy appetites on the deliciously depraved and decadent ditty “Mummy Dust.”            
In addition to having Forge’s best demonic vocals of the night, “Mummy Dust” was completed with suggestive pelvic thrushes aimed at the audience, a cheesy keytar solo and confetti cannons shooting out silver paper bits and mock 666-dollar bills.
For their encore, Ghost’s cover of Metallica’s “Enter Sandman” was absolutely epic, followed by two of their catchier songs, “Dance Macabre” and “Square Hammer.”

Victorian Slang. A to J.
Make sure you read the entire post unless you want me to batty-fang ya!
Afternoonified A society word meaning “smart.” Forrester demonstrates the usage: “The goods are not ‘afternoonified’ enough for me.”
Arfarfan’arf A figure of speech used to describe drunken men. “He’s very arf’arf’an’arf,” Forrester writes, “meaning he has had many ‘arfs,’” or half-pints of booze.
Back it Thieves used this term to indicate that they wanted “to go out the back way.”
Bags o’ Mystery An 1850 term for sausages, “because no man but the maker knows what is in them. … The ‘bag’ refers to the gut which contained the chopped meat.”
Bang up to the elephant This phrase originated in London in 1882, and means “perfect, complete, unapproachable.”
Batty-fang Low London phrase meaning “to thrash thoroughly,” possibly from the French battre a fin.
Benjo Nineteenth century sailor slang for “A riotous holiday, a noisy day in the streets.”
Bow wow mutton A naval term referring to meat so bad “it might be dog flesh.”
Bricky Brave or fearless. “Adroit after the manner of a brick,” Forrester writes, “said even of the other sex, ‘What a bricky girl she is.’”
Bubble Around A verbal attack, generally made via the press. Forrester cites The Golden Butterfly: “I will back a first-class British subject for bubbling around against all humanity.”
Butter Upon Bacon Extravagance. Too much extravagance. “Are you going to put lace over the feather, isn’t that rather butter upon bacon?”
Cat-lap A London society term for tea and coffee “used scornfully by drinkers of beer and strong waters … in club-life is one of the more ignominious names given to champagne by men who prefer stronger liquors.”
Church-bell A talkative woman.
Chuckaboo A nickname given to a close friend.
Collie shangles Quarrels. A term from Queen Victoria’s journal, More Leaves , published in 1884: “At five minutes to eleven rode off with Beatrice, good Sharp going with us, and having occasional collie shangles (a Scotch word for quarrels or rows, but taken from fights between dogs) with collies when we came near cottages.”
Cop a Mouse To get a black eye. “Cop in this sense is to catch or suffer,” Forrester writers, “while the colour of the obligation at its worst suggests the colour and size of the innocent animal named.”
Daddles A delightful way to refer to your rather boring hands.
Damfino This creative cuss is a contraction of “damned if I know.”
Dizzy Age A phrase meaning “elderly,” because it “makes the spectator giddy to think of the victim’s years.” The term is usually refers to “a maiden or other woman canvassed by other maiden ladies or others.”
Doing the Bear “Courting that involves hugging.”
Don’t sell me a dog Popular until 1870, this phrase meant “Don’t lie to me!” Apparently, people who sold dogs back in the day were prone to trying to pass off mutts as purebreds.
Door-knocker A type of beard “formed by the cheeks and chin being shaved leaving a chain of hair under the chin, and upon each side of mouth forming with moustache something like a door-knocker.”
Enthuzimuzzy “Satirical reference to enthusiasm.” Created by Braham the terror, whoever that is.
Fifteen puzzle Not the game you might be familiar with, but a term meaning complete and absolute confusion.
Fly rink An 1875 term for a polished bald head.
Gal-sneaker An 1870 term for “a man devoted to seduction.”
Gas-Pipes A term for especially tight pants.
Gigglemug “An habitually smiling face.”
Got the morbs Use of this 1880 phrase indicated temporary melancholy.
Half-rats Partially intoxicated.
Jammiest bits of jam “Absolutely perfect young females,” circa 1883.
