#bionicle lamp

[ohihopeicanchangethislater]

Don't worry I got it, it's an Elwin 1 Light Table Lamp in Blue with Multi-coloured Base and it's available through Beacon Lighting, though you might be able to find something similar through Amazon or other retailers. It normally sells for about $90 but it looks like it's on sale for about $72.

Here's the link for more information:

And yes I channeled my Jordan Howlett when researching and writing this post lol

TAKUA!!!!!

Stolen from @the-golden-ghost , and you can steal it too!

Lazarus Lore:

Is a feathered serpent with some sort of ambiguous divinity

Can shapeshift into a human form. She has a full-snek form, a full-human form, and of course a kemonomimi form, which she favors the most

Has lived as a human and is only recently learning about the snek goddess(?) part

Lives on a large tropical island and/or archipelago in the middle of a big ocean, tech base is mildly futuristic but has a pretty good balance of cities and nature

The planet she lives on is one of two, tidally-locked binary planets of roughly equal size and mass, revolving around each other while sharing an orbit and a handful of moons

Why is the other planet there? She might have a connection to it, but it might just be there for vibes, idk yet. Looks really sick looming on the horizon all the time though

Due to the whole feathered snek thing, has powers over plants, water, and lightning... maybe gravity too?

Despite this is kind of a pansy about nature on account of growing up a city girl; likes plants, but bad with animals (like me lol)

Maybe the nature half of a nature vs tech to nature x tech theme but idk

Allergic to cold, loves warmth, will dress either super slutty or in a gazillion layers with no in between based on the weather

Sideboob is mandatory to most of her wardrobe

Put her under a heat lamp already dangit

Strict mom mommy issues

Generally lazy and airheaded and cuddly (like me lol) but also a showoff (the feathers of her feathered serpent form are peacock feathers for a reason)

ADHD executive dysfunction and mood swings and absentmindedness an-

Useless lesbian supreme, very openly horny online but too self-conscious in person to let on any of that

But also gives into snek instincts to lik or nom girls affectionately way too easily, leading to awakwardness

Neeeeerd, obsessed with this universe's offbrand equivalent of lego bionicle, unironically goes 'wow I wish tropical islands with magic robots were real' while forgetting she lives on one

Would do beach episodes more often if sand wasn't a bad texture to her, but always down to dip in a pool

Naturally smells like mint when she actually makes the effort to freshen up, possibly tastes like it too...

Best quality: her squiggles

This is very charming, really digging the Bionicle lamp in particular

A1, A16, B6, C8 for the BIONICLE asks?

A1 - Favourite character?

I’m going to go completely off the chain and instead of saying Matoro, I’m going to say Kopeke. Or at least just how I perceive him. Seriously, what an underrated character. This autistic artist that is the archetype Ko-Matoran that even most Ko-Matoran would be uncomfy around because of how quiet and frigid he is. He is so fucking shy and antisocial and just wants to sculpt and not be around anyone and you just KNOW he and Matoro are BFFs. I just. I’m So Soft for this introvert of introverts, this neurotypical nugget. You can fit so many depressions into him.

No but seriously, Kopeke is heavily underrated and oddly a very interesting character once you get a bit into his personality. It’s been stated that, while he seems excessively cold even by Ko standards, he is indeed just extremely shy and socially awkward. He’s so oddly diverse in his interests too On one hand, he is the quintessential depressed and talented artist that could probably whip out a functioning ice canon with nothing but a vaguely intact block of ice and a swiss army knife. On the other, he’s hardcore enough for sports that he took a Kohlii ball to the face, broke his mask, got a new one to honor his village leader, and went about his day like a fucking champion. He’s a GOALIE, and goalies are inherently insane and delightfully unhinged. He is also an absolute monster in the world’s deadliest and officiated game of snowball fighting. The guy just goes on his way after being frozen to a wall for god knows how long like nothing happened in the MNOG, and had the sheer talent to just casually carve out an intricate 3D key to get through a locked gate. Just, so casual, right??

And in spite of all his supposed faults and “weaknesses”, he still took on the mantle of Chronicler. A job that would require he make a leap out of his comfort zone over a distance akin to the parting of the red sea.

What. A. Fucking. Unit.

A16 - Favourite Rahi?

Oof, this is a bit difficult to answer because, aside from Pewku, I don’t really have much of any idea of what most other Rahi are like. I have the general idea of what they’re SUPPOSED to be like behaviorally, but otherwise… It’s a bit of a tie between the Frostelus and Frost Beetles. The Frostelus are fascinating to me as being semi-sapient and exceptionally intelligent Rahi not unlike Keetongu; intelligent enough for them to align with those who offer them a good trade, and to form their own makeshift tribes. They’re not nice of course, and in fact it was an undiscovered clan of Frostelus that wiped out Lhikan’s entire team. Yikes.

Frost Beetles I recently read up on, and again, I think they’re fascinating for not just their intelligence, but how they supposedly gain said intelligence. Matoro proposed a theory that the beetles consume Knowledge Crystals not just because they probably taste good, but so they can absorb the knowledge inside them. The theory hasn’t been proven or disproven (in fact it’s not even really being discussed since Metru-nui fell, go figure) but it would explain how and why they gain intelligence so quickly and the more they eat these crystals. I like smart animals/Rahi apparently.

B6 - Favourite canister?

Hands down the Bohrok canisters! As I kid, I thought it was the most hardcore thing to make the canisters see-through (after having my mom vigorously scrub the sticker goo off) so you can see your balled up Bohrok hanging inside like something out of Alien. I even filled the canisters with water for extra alien aesthetic (sadly did not comprehend the consequences until shit began growing and corroding). Nowadays, if I ever get another Bohrok set AND the canister, I have the knowledge and means to turn it into a glowy and bubbly lamp!

C8 - Which sets do you own?

Sadly all of my original childhood sets are long gone (RIP, childhood) but! On a whim last year, I found the rebuilt version of Matoro’s Matoran form on ebay! He now sits in my pen and pencil box watching me surf the interwebs. Occasionally he will hold my webcam for me! He is a lovely desk assistant.

Thank you for the ask!

So, I adore everyone's comments in the tags, and I wanted to give a tiny bit of behind the scenes.

- Ehlek and Takadox were shot on basically the same set. The set was a BIG pitcher of water that I had filled with blue food colouring, iir, and then set on top of a lamp with a VERY long lightbulb.

-Ehlek was from top down of the pitcher looking down

- Takadox was hooked onto the side and peering through the side of it.

- Lewa was just perched out there on merit of the Bionicle team's great piece design and my own careful placement. Shoutout to my parents for um...Having...trees in their yard?

Some OLD art projects of mine, from back in highschool. I was just a LITTLE bit of a bionicle kid.

Matoran have made bets on which of their Toa would win in a fight, but have they bet on their Turaga? 

They’re wise, but don’t move very well and probably don’t have enough of their elemental power left for any real combat. That being said they all have combat experience, a hefty staff for beating others, raging PTSD, and are no longer bound by the Toa code. 

Onewa seems like he would be one of the most vicious Turaga to fight. Though Nuju would probably just play dirty by freezing patches of the floor under his opponents and tripping them. 

Would any of the Metru Turaga win in a fight against Dume?

Faber has been posting/reposting some Bionicle art on his Facebook and instigram that hasn’t seen any attention on tumblr. Please consider visiting his social media pages and letting him know how awesome you think his work is. He really has been pushing hard for bringing back the franchise and his Rebel Nature project deserves some attention as well.

Hey! I’m still alive!

Case is that in past few months due to changes in my life I got less time and more money.

I got new LED lamps but no time to take pictures of my MOCs 😭

But I’ll try to do something creative! Even it will be just writing or drawing something in spare time. I have no idea if I’ll have much time for Stud.io. For sure not for 3D printing, at least not with my RepRap printer which requires 100% extra time and effort to make it work properly 😑 I am wondering if I’ll have time for modelling and then ordering prints from professionals, like Shapeways or some local 3D printing services, I am still eager to make custom Bionicle parts. Some people maybe remember I had plans to make some and sell on Shapeways, but setting up my own business for that would be too problematic in my country. Especially that I have full time job now (which also means no craving to make money on 3D printing right now, so if I manage to make something it’ll end up as free download on Thingiverse).

What you can expect now is photos of a MOC that waited a few months to be shown, today or tomorrow. Stay tuned! 📺

5. do you prefer to drink soda from soda cans, soda bottles, plastic cups or glass cups?

honestly i think plastic cups? it just feels right (cans and bottles are too restricting, glass cups give it a weird taste)

15. favorite book you read as a school assignment?

oh boy I can’t remember, i’m probably gonna say catcher in the rye because I did like it and it’s the only one I can think of right now

21. obsession from childhood?

b i o n i c l e  i used to know everything about bionicle and sadly all that knowledge has atrophied as I grew up

28. five songs to describe you?

well I think legally I have to start with Piss, and also American Overture, Aria Math, how about 1952 Vincent Black Lightning, and finally let’s say The Electric State because the music that I write describes me arguably the best

32. top five favorite vines?

vines don’t work anymore which is so sad to me so i can’t link you anything but the one where the guy’s cooking and he just flips the frying pan in half, everybody knows shit fuck, the one with the dude fighting the tree, ghost credit, and the one with the guy who goes down the line at the drink thing and gets like a click of everything and then drinks it and says “fuck you”

44. favorite scent for soap?

oh gosh i don’t know, maybe watermelon? that’s a good one

47. favorite type of cheese?

how are you gonna make me choose this i have absolutely no Idea oh no wait I lied it’s 1000% guggisberg baby swiss that shit Slaps

56. favorite tradition?

|_o_| uhhhh anything at massillon really? i’ve been thinking about the alma mater lately so i will say the band singing the alma mater in four part harmony before marching out of the armory before each game. alternatively, opening routine

92. lamps, overhead lights, sunlight or fairy lights?

sunlight is good but i am a slut for fairy lights all the time

punch drunk love

Grouping: Reader x Yoongi

Word Count: 1742

Genre: Fluff i guess? Friends to lovers kinda

It’s been 5 minutes too long now and Yoongi’s disappearance has you getting paranoid. Although, that also happens when you drink tequila, so it could just be that. It’s not until you hear the characteristic, slightly rhythmic sound of Yoongi’s drunken shuffle that has your heart rate returning to its normal state. You peek around the corner of the brick wall you were hiding behind and gape when you see him holding a police officer’s motorcycle helmet with handcuffs dangling off one wrist. 

“I can’t believe you,” you slur as he approaches you smugly. 

“Yeah, well, believe it kiddo. Min Yoongi doesn’t take double dares lightly,” he lisps. 

“Put it on, put it on." 

He struggles a little more than he should trying to smooth back his platinum blond hair while putting on the clunky helmet. Like the good friend you are, you don’t help him. Instead you laugh and call him a Bionicle when he finally gets it on and pulls the protective visor down. 

"How do I look?” He leans on the brick wall and tries to pose in what he thinks is a cool way. The illusion is ruined when his Birkenstocks slide on the gravel a little. 

“Like a tool,” you say immediately, practically on instinct. 

“So what would you use me for?” He winks but you don’t see it in the low light of the street lamps lining the road. 

“Practicing punches, of course,” you reach up on wobbly tip toes and lightly bump a fist on the crown of the helmet. 

“Oh! Do one of your finger flicks,” he says all of the sudden. 

“Are you crazy? Do you want me to break my fucking hand?" 

"Are you crazy? Your could probably break the glass on the visor. You’re so freaking strong." 

You flush at the praise. It’s rare that you get a compliment from Yoongi. Your friendship is an unusual one on the surface since most of your time together if filled with ribbing and sneering. But sometimes you wish things were a bit softer. You’ve seen Yoongi with girlfriends in the past, and while he’s not necessarily mushy, he’s almost uncharacteristically sweet in a sort of ‘tsundere’ way. 

You snap out of your musing and splay your dominant hand on the visor while pulling back your middle finger with the other hand. "Prepare to die, Min." 

You release your finger and it comes down hard onto the thick glass of the visor. Yoongi flinches before blinking rapidly and you wrench your hand away to howl in pain. 

"That was it? Oh my god, I really thought you were going to crack my skull open, even with this thing on. Wow, I should bring this thing back to the suite and let the guys try it out too,” he chuckles only to freeze when he hears you whimper softly. “What’s the matter?" 

"Yoongi,” you whine thickly, “I think it’s broken." 

He softly reaches over to cradle your throbbing hand in his two larger ones. Your shocked by how soft the skin of his palms is. You wonder if the euphoria you’re feeling is from the booze you drank earlier or from the feeling of his thumbs rubbing your middle finger lightly. 

"Don’t worry,” he says sternly as he brings your fingers up to his face. He bumps the tips of your fingers accidentally with the face guard before cursing and ripping off the helmet. He brings the tips your fingers up to his mouth again, this time to kiss each one softly, over and over again. You stare with your mouth hanging open. You feel warm all over and you never want it to stop.

“Yoongi,” your voice raspy, “What are you doing?" 

He freezes and slowly drags his gaze up to your face. Your expression must be a strange one because he quickly drops your hand before shoving his in his pockets. 

"Nothing. I just thought I would try and help you feel better. Since you were whining so much,” he says and awkwardly kicks at the gravel in his sandals. 

You frown and wonder why the hell things had to go from sweet to dismissive so quickly. For once you just wanted to be soft around him without fear that he would make you feel like a little brother or one of his friends. 

“You didn’t have to stop,” you say quietly, missing the way his head whips back up to face you. “My fingers still hurt, so you haven’t quite done your job just yet." 

He hesitantly reaches for your hand again and pulls you toward him. In truth, your hand is now numb, so you’re not in any pain, but you do want to be close to him again. You look up at him and are shocked at how fond he looks. His eyes, though a little glassy and red from the blunt smoked earlier, are practically molten. You’ve always liked their pretty shape and pretty dark color, framed with dark lashes. You reach your fingertips up to his mouth and press a little on the firm softness of his lips until he catches on and puckers up. You both smile and he unthinkingly wraps an arm around your waist to pull you even closer.

"You know, I was thinking about head butting you in the helmet,” his eyes widen in surprise but the quiet joy is still there. “And just thought of it makes my lips hurt too." 

He grins and your heart skips a beat when you see his trademark gummy smile. You try to drink in his dreamy expression as he leans in, but your eyes flutter closed on their own. Then he’s slanting his lips across yours and you can practically hear the blood rushing in your veins. Yoongi must not be as much of a lightweight as you thought because he kisses with utter control and confidence. 

Soft, dry caresses turns to hard presses with the tip of his tongue nudging at your bottom lip. You suppress a groan at the slick feeling of his tongue sliding with yours. He turns the two of you and backs up slowly until he can lean back on the brick wall with you flush against his front. He lazily slips a thigh in between yours and you make sure to properly rock against it a little as you move from running the tip of your tongue along the edge of his teeth to biting his plush lower lip to planting wet kisses against his jaw until you reach his neck. 

"Shit,” he hisses as you lave your tongue over the spot on his throat where you intend to leave a hickey. 

You never get to do it, though, because you feel a hand of his tug you up and off by the hair. You want to demand an explanation but the concerned look marring his face keeps you from doing so. 

“What’s wrong?" He huffs and removes his arm from around you. You feel cold. 

"I’m confused. I thought you didn’t like me. Like that.” Yoongi hangs his head, embarrassed at how juvenile he sounds. 

“What makes you say that?” You lift his chin so you can look him in the eye. Your heart breaks at how resigned he looks. 

“Come on, kid, think about it. We’re always bickering and poking at each other. Every time I try to give you a compliment, you get all defensive and every time I flirt with you, you shut it down." What the hell, you think. 

"When have you ever given me a compliment that wasn’t a half insult and when the hell have you ever flirted with me, Min?" 

"Fucking five minutes ago,” he rakes his fingers through his hair, exasperated. “I complimented your finger flicking skills and you didn’t say anything. And before that I was flirting with you and you told me I looked like a tool. Obviously you don’t have to return the favor but what am I supposed to think?" 

You blink at that. You suppose, looking back on it, that all of the moments like those he mentioned could have just been awkward attempts at flirting. But since when were you the oblivious one, you wondered. 

"Yoongi, I do like you”. 

He huffs, amazed. “Could have fooled me. I almost choked when you said that thing about head butting me earlier. That’s the closest thing to a sweet moment we’ve ever had." 

"I figured you didn’t like me since you were always sort of sweet with your girlfriends but never with me." 

"Honestly? I avoided it because I thought you wouldn’t want it if it came from me." Now that the truth is coming out, he brings a hand up to quietly play with the buttons on your jacket. 

"Well, you’re wrong. I would want it, especially if it came from you,” you smile. “I guess we’re both idiots, huh?" 

You grab onto the lapels of his shirt to bring him closer to you. You give him soft pecks and he eventually cracks a smile. 

"Does this mean I have to call you sweetie? Or honey? Because I really don’t want to.” He brings his other hand to bury itself in the back pocket of your pants. 

“You don’t have to,” you say between kisses. “It’s kind of funny when you call me ‘kid’. You’re only a little bit older than me and you’re not that much taller than me." He grumbles but pulls you in by the nape of the neck to kiss you again. 

"Wait, wait, wait,” you sputter just as his lips brush yours. He squeezes his eyes shut and sighs, squeezing your butt a little for patience. 

“What is it now?" 

"Can you put the helmet back on?” You know it would probably make it damn near impossible to kiss him, but he looked so funny that you couldn’t resist and you’re still a little shit when it comes to him. 

“Look, I promise, when we get back to my place, I’ll put it on and do whatever you want but just—Jesus, kid, let me have this, okay?" 

He starts where he left off, his lips pressing insistently against yours and working his tongue to taste you underneath tequila and soda and lime. You try to plan Bionicle role play for when you get home, but he grinds up against you with a whine and you lose your train of thought.

a/n: does anyone remember bionicles? we used to pretend to be them during recess in elementary school

[sternenmeerkind]

Lights, present and bells :)

I'm not sure which my prettiest memory is but I choose this one: one christmas when my brother and I were still little we went into the living room while our parents were still sleeping and played with his new bionicles and my new playmobil ranch together and it was so peaceful and fun I wished for a new desk lamp and books (of course haha) (and I got it and I love it)I've been living my whole life on the countryside and I definitely prefer itThanks for the asks! How was (or still is) your christmas? Hope you got nice presents and lots of love ❤

[dreamwalker93]

Dream or reality?

So it's one am on a work night and I can't sleep because I had a medium iced coffee at like 2pm...24oz is apparently too much caffeine oops.

So since I can't sleep and most my dreams lately that I record are really emotional thought I'd post something different and interesting.

Do you have childhood memories that you can't tell were dreams or reality?

Imagine this. You have a memory. It's a very defining memory. It's something that happened that leaves an impact on you, whether it be traumatizing or beautiful. Because of this you don't forget it. When you get older though, you start to realize something doesn't add up.

So long story short, I have these like 3 distinct memories that I was unsure of. 2 of them involved my mom and sister.

If you ever read this blog or just dream, you know that some can feel ridiculously real. Like, as in even when you're in the dream you feel like you truly are conscious, convos make sense, scenery isn't changing, nothing stupid is going on etc. And then you wake up and legit have that "wait what?" Moment. But what if you're too young to have this?

So dream one, I have to say I was super young. Like I have this weird period of history where like I have very few memories of being super young, like younger than 6 for sure. There's a few memories, but like they're vague and separated by darkness, it's super weird. The void I remember clearly, like it's like you're existing but not at the same time and everything is black. Wtf dude.

Anyway so I have this memory. I'm at my old house front porch with my mom and sister and we're having a good time. I'm looking at the bushes and all the sudden they all bloom at once and turn into butterflies. It was AWESOME. Super gorgeous. I was completely mesmerized. What a time.

So get this, I legit considered this a memory and not a dream for YEARS. Yes, years!!! Like using kid logic I just assumed maybe it was weird plant thing that made the flowers bloom fast and butterflies were around and flew off! Or maybe they were all cocoons idk! So eventually after trying to figure it out with Superior kid logic I ask my mom one day, legit asking "hey I have this memory did this happen?" And obviously she was like that didn't happen kid that's impossible". But it's just crazy how a dream felt so real that it left that kind of impression on me. I'm not joking when I say I geninuely thought it was a memory for years.

So we got the fantasy one out of the way, let's get real.

So I have this other one that really freaked me out both at the time but when I found out it wasn't a memory cause this one for real felt, well, real.

So I have this memory when I was a kid. Older than the other one, have to be like elementary school 4th gradeish. My mom sister and I were hanging out near the hallway to the front door and the staircase to upstairs. I forget what we were doing but I looked down the hall to the door. I swear I saw this thing...person...Bionicle??? Looking right at me. It slowly popped out of the window and I screamed. My mom all concerned is like what?!!! And I tell her I saw someone looking at us. Going in full mom mode she went to check it out, but no one was there. She asked if I was sure I saw someone and I say yes. She legit goes outside and looks everywhere but no one. She comes back telling me she looked all around the street and no one was there.

So I think nothing of this until yeeaarrssss later, like as in I'm 18ish. One day Liz mom and I are talking and I bring it up. I'm like "hey, remember that time I saw that guy looking at us through the door and you went and checked it out?" To my surprise, no one remembered. My mom and Liz were like what are you talking about?? I was so thrown off. This is something everyone would remember, it's not like I lost my blankey or something I SAW AN INTRUDER STALKING US. I explain it in full detail, the dude peeping in, notices me looking walks off, mom searching etc. My mom cliams she has no recollection. Lix doesn't either. Apparently once again, this was a dream.

A few things point to it. First off if you were paying attention I mentioned I might've saw a Bionicle lol. I legit can picture the mask of that ice dude looking at me. Also his movement felt uncanny. That doesn't add up. But what convinces me is how my mom acts. If I was a parent and was told someone was looking at us through a screen door, I would immediately close it, locked up the house, turn on the alarm and call 911, not go outside search out the srea and leave my kid UNATTENDED WITH A POSSIBLE PREDATOR AROUND. She seriously walked far away from the house.

This one blew my mind. This legit means my child mind created a full nightmare that was detailed and convincing enough to once again lead me to believe this really happened. This is just wild to me. I start to think what memories are actually real and which are fake? Was I illucid dreaming without realizing? Was I just so creative and had such a big imagination that I believed it and kinda went with it as I went older? Weird.

Last one! So this one I was able to debunk myself because of research for this blog!! 😜

So quick note I never really thought this one real past childhood, it just didn't make sense. But man was it scary.

So I have this memory...ahem, dream, from being a kid. I'm trying to sleep. I have trouble sleeping as a kid. Why? I'm scared of everything. Especially aliens. Aliens scared the shit out of me as a kid. And every night I'd be wide awake scared they were outside my door ready to take me. I'd leave the light on and wouldn't be able to close my eyes...the whole nine.

So back then I left my door open. I look out. What do I see hiding behind the staircase? An alien. Just looking at me. I was frozen. I couldn't move. I have never been so scared in my life. This felt like forever. A staredown. Neither of us moving. Just staring. Eventually I finally get the nerve to role over, hide under my covers, and fall asleep. Next morning like nothing happened.

I never slept with the door open again.

Did I scare you? Good. I had to turn my lamp on for that one 😂

So obviously this wasn't real. When I got older I didn't know how to explain it, but I knew it wasn't cause one the alien literally didn't move. Like literally at all. It was like it was an image. Just still frame chillin. 2 it was like...idk it wasn't a full body and shit. It was glowing. It was in a spot where there wasn't any floor. How did it get in my house?? You know that shit.

I couldn't explain why I had this memory though. It wasn't a dream I knew that. I was awake. I was aware. I was in my bed. This wasn't a dream.

So what was it??

Did you guess sleep paralysis? Cause ding ding ding!!;

I totally has sleep paralysis once as a kid!!! Isn't that wild???

When I learned what sleep paralysis was I immediately thought if this memory and it all made sense.

For those who don't know what it is, sleep paralysis is when you wake up from sleep, but your body doesn't. You can't move, but you are aware. It's like you're stuck between sleep and awake. During this time, you hallucinate hardcore, especially things you're scared of.

For most people, this is a big spider climbing on you, or someone in the corner of your room staring at you just in the corner of your eye, etc. For me, it was aliens.

It explains why I couldn't move. I literally couldn't move a muscle. It went on forever cause the only way to get out quick is to close your eyes and count to ten. I guess after a while I just snapped out of it. But that's why I rolled over and passed out.

Crazy shit right? Shit like that and being scared is why I sleep on my stomach (cause if I can't see anything how can I see hallucinations? 😜

Hope you enjoyed my weird memory dreams and biggest sleep paralysis moment!
