current Transformers OC reference masterpost! (these references have been made over the course of the last year, so there’s some style changes)

Zephyr - the adoptive son of Ironhide, who’s got a penchant for taking in strays. Everyone is convinced he’s Bee’s kid, but no one talks about it. Scout who’s absolutely fascinated by the world around him. Has been taught a lot of bad habits by the twins, who were other foundlings of Ironhide. Is constantly trying to modify his visor to allow him access to things his visor shouldn’t have access to. Once dated an undercover Decepticon for like 3 months. His siblings won’t let him live it down. Has an electrical based outlier ability and can shock people through his hands and feet. The wiring on the side of his helm sparks when he’s frustrated.

Oracle - the son of Ratchet and a special op’s bot named Savvy (who has since been offlined in duty). The pseudo little brother to the Protectobots and Aerialbots - he is incredibly close to First Aid, as he has played a large role in his training. Sparked medic, and damn good at his job. Primarily works as a field medic. Tries to act serious and professional but he’s really, really not good at it. Will turn his emergency lights on to piss bots off when they’ve scorned him. Often is getting hauled around like a toddler by his older brothers. Courting Blitz, to the disappointment of Ratchet (Oracle does not care)

Blitz - Foundling of Bulkhead. Has also partially been raised by Wheeljack, as the two are close friends. Was also raised around the Autobots’ combiner teams, but the Aerialbots took much more of a shine to him due to his general attitude and behavior. Heavy hitter with a love for making pun jokes. Thinks the Wreckers are cool as all shit. Isn’t good with emotions, but will give hugs if you need them. he gives good hugs. Absolutely in love with Oracle, and thinks it’s hilarious that Ratchet is salty about them courting.

Ranger - Son of Optimus Prime and Elita One. Youngest sibling of Arcee and Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime. His spark separated way too early, and as such many essential systems failed to online or develop properly. He cannot take energon by mouth, and must have it introduced to his system via tubing, as well as requiring a form of ‘pacemaker’ to keep his spark working properly. His ventilation system often needs recalibrating and working to keep them cooling him properly. Too sweet for his own good, and sees the good in everyone. This often gets him into trouble. Got stranded with Stormshot of the Alpha Trine once, and helped save his life - leading them to fall helplessly in love with one another. He bullies Oracle relentlessly due to how often he is in the medbay (but they’re very good friends)

Nightlock - the oldest of the Alpha Trine and Megatron and Starscream’s sparklings. Was created as an attempt to combine the twos’ best qualities into a super soldier, but their seeker genetics caused the spark to split into the trine, spreading the traits among all three brothers. The golden child, and Megatron’s favorite. Keeps his mouth shut and does what he’s told. An absolute nightmare on the battlefield due to how adept he is at his job. Harsh and rough around the edges. 100% brainwashed by his sire. After his brothers left, he loses an optic to one of his sire’s fits, which frightens him into rethinking his entire life, enough to where he offers to become a double agent against Megatron. Changes his name to Nightwaker after the war

Stormshot - The middle mech of the Alpha Trine and Megatron and Starscream’s sparklings. Created as an attempt to combine the twos’ best qualities into a super soldier, but their seeker genetics caused the spark to split into the trine, spreading the traits among the brothers. Typically forgotten about by his creators. The hard hitter of his brothers. Absolutely massive in both height and weight. Despite it, he’s not fond of violence, and if it is not necessary he will not engage. He wanted to be a dancer, had he not been sparked during the war. Almost killed Prime’s kid when they got stranded together out of fear of being taken prisoner by the autobots. When Ranger let him go, he would end up forming a friendship that later turned to love towards him. Defects from the Decepticons to the Autobots to be with Ranger after his sire threatened his life one too many times. Would do anything for his brothers.

Crossfire - The youngest of the Alpha Trine and Megatron and Starscream’s sparklings. Created as an attempt to combine the twos’ best qualities into a super soldier, but their seeker genetics caused the spark to split into the trine, spreading the traits among the brothers. The scapegoat of the family. Has an outlier ability that affects his voice. The volume of his voice correlates to damage that can be done, almost akin to a sonic boom combined with directly damaging ones’ audials. He cannot shut it off, however, and wears an inhibitor device that will shock him if he raises his voice above an ‘acceptable level’ without being permitted by a higher ranked official, usually his creators. Speaks primarily in a whisper. Incredibly anxious, and suffers from panic attacks and severe self isolation. Defects to the Autobots after Stormshot does, when Megatron begins getting extremely violent with him and attempts to take his life. Has bouts of nonverbalism as a result of his trauma. Loves astronomy, and would like to learn medical skills, to save lives rather than take them. Small dude.

Feel better

Just thought I'd share some of the songs that have been helping my mindset this morning.

[ssunvulcan1981]

[anthurak]

Thinking more on Psychonauts (since I’m still replaying the first game at the moment lol) and how while it’s never really commented on all that much, Raz’s acrobatics training as part of his family circus is actually a HUGE part of his abilities and the gameplay.

As in, it’s the in-universe justification for the game’s platforming.

For example, just look at Oleander’s Basic Braining from both a gameplay and narrative perspective: Gameplay-wise, it’s the opening tutorial level that introduces the basic controls and all the platforming mechanics that will define the rest of the game, and because of that the level is pretty easy and forgiving to the player.

Now where this gets interesting is when we consider that it’s pretty clear that for the rest of the campers, Basic Braining is basically a horrifying death with most not even being able to finish.

So it’s basically implied that the level being so easy represents that for Raz, it WAS easy. Specifically BECAUSE of all his acrobatics experience. While all the other kids were struggling with ridiculously long ladders, net walls, rope-swings, multiple trapezes, dodging machine-gun fire or just getting blown up by random landmines, Raz the trained-before-he-could-walk acrobat was absolutely blitzing through all of that. He got through it so fast Raz almost stumbled onto the big bad’s evil plan simply because Oleander never thought he’d get through the course so fast!

And the fun thing is that this unspoken emphasis on Raz’s acrobatics skill permeates through the entire rest of the game, and even explains a few metanarrative elements! Like you know how it’s implied that Raz pics up new psychic abilities and skills ridiculously fast for a kid his age while at camp?

Well, aside from his natural talent and drive to learn, from a gameplay perspective we can assume at least part of it is Raz picking up a bunch of those Psi cards, Challenge Markers and Scavenger Hunt items scattered around the camp. Most of which just so happen to be squirreled away in some VERY hard-to-reach places. At least, hard to reach for anyone without years of acrobatics training.

And that’s not even touching on what happens when Raz picks up Levitation. Like for the other kids, levitation is just a fun gimmick to zip around rolling on a glowing ball. But as we see with Raz, he’s practically FLYING.

Is it any wonder Ranger Cruller is surprised when Raz gets half the scavenger hunt done in an afternoon? And is pretty sure nobody has ever done the whole thing when Raz finally finishes the hunt?*

And I think this all plays very nicely into the narrative thru-line that runs across both the first and second games: That for all the baggage that may come from them, Raz’s connection to his family is still an important part of his life. Particularly with how this plays into the end of the first game with Raz reconciling with his father, and into the second game with both reconciling and dealing with several of his broader family issues.

That regardless of what he learns as a psychonaut, the lessons Raz learned from his family will always be of help to him.

*I mean, aside from the fact that one of the items can only be obtained through use of a psychic power that doesn’t seem available to campers, and another item straight-up isn’t even in the camp.

Inktober Days 10-12

Day 10: "Fortune"

On the farthest-flung spit of the Florida Keys are a handful of islands bearing the second-oldest surviving European name in the US, recorded by Ponce de León for the abundance of sea turtles and the lack of fresh water (Florida’s name is considered the oldest). Shallow straits create a ship trap that has claimed hundreds of vessels from the age of sail, including loaded Spanish treasure galleons. Old lighthouses stand as memories to the effort to guide ships through lucrative but risky channels. Rising from Garden Key is a hexagonal fortress—Fort Jefferson, the largest all-brick fort in the US, which housed Union prisoners during the Civil War. Under the turquoise water are some of the most intact coral reefs in the continental US. The water teems with sea life, and in addition to several year-round seabird species, the islands serve as stopovers for migrating birds. It’s a treasure trove lousy with natural and historical abundance. A vast fortune of biodiversity and human history.

This message is not brought to you by Visit Dry Tortugas LLC—it’s brought to you by a too-romantic ranger who’s a sucker for lonely maritime outposts and would desperately like to visit this unusual little member of the National Park Service.

Day 11: "Wander"

Some parks more than others seem to invite visitors to wander. It’s the twists of a path, dipping in and out of the rises in a landscape. It’s the light filtering through dark forests, promising something new beyond the branches. It’s the shoulders of a massive mountain standing like a beacon, or its invisible summit covered in clouds. Mount Rainier, like so many other protected places, seems to beckon—come. Explore. Take it in.

But stay on the path—alpine habitats are fragile.

Day 12: "Spicy"

Olympic was the first park I fell in love with, and it was a twenty-year long-distance relationship. A National Geographic article I read in high school painted a picture of verdant rainforests dripping with moss, wild windy coastlines, and high snowy peaks. I desperately wanted to see these places myself, stand under the towering cedars and breathe in their spicy scent. My desire to visit was so strong that the summers I worked in Glacier and Yellowstone, I would constantly plot the drive west, hoping the travel time would somehow get shorter. It was eleven hours. I could do that in a long weekend, couldn’t I? Take one of my precious few days off and just blitz to the coast?

The plans never worked out, which is probably for the best. Instead, after two years of Covid-cancelled plans, my husband and I decided to make the trip together from the east coast. It was infinitely better than a snatched day and a half all alone. For a week, we explored the glaciated mountains, rocky beaches, and primordial rainforests. After two-thirds of my life spent pining after this park, it was everything I’d dreamed it would be and more.

[zevampirex]

The result of the last poll! The ineffable cats at the blitz are here!

I actually really like to make you choose the next one! So…. Here is the choices

[whining-ylthin]

OK, so, I am clearly biased because I'm not actively following Rogue Trader-specific tags and whatnot, all I see is what my follows post or reblog so there's a person-specific filter on each post that reaches my dash, but--

Everyone simps for Marzipan the Dark Elf. Everyone wants to fuck either of the Inquisition's Blowjob Brothers. Everyone likes the Eldar Ranger wife.

I've yet to see a single image of Ulfar's ass and I can't tell if it's because I follow people who specifically aren't into bears and other types of hard-masculine men, because his Cop-Flavored Space Wolf Vibes are that rancid, or because he does something else in the game that causes him to end up being such an unlikeable dick (derogatory) that nobody bothers to draw him. Which is a goddamn achievement and a half in 40K because you can pick up the soggiest white bread of a loyalist Marine character/chapter, bet five bucks that there is at least one person swooning over them and casually walk away 10$ richer.

"Why won't you play the game yourself--" because my free time is split unevenly between Warframe, drawing my own little mans, dealing with depressive episodes and a sudden craving for a 6/10 jank-as-fuck RPG that I know well enough by now to kind of just casually blitz through in maybe 20-ish hours, which led me to reinstall Might & Magic X of all things. Also, RT is apparently still buggy and I'm not paying 60$ to do post-launch QA for Owlcat, either the game goes on a big sale or they patch it to a decent level.

Into the GuyLoboVerse: Day 11

Earth 383: Pokemon AU

Pokemon Breeder GUY GARDNER was out on a supply run with his beloved shiny growlithe when Biker LOBO rolled into town. While GUY had his back turned, his growlithe decided to investigate the strange motorcycle. Unfortunately, LOBO's mightyena snuck up on the growlithe. Who then did a flare blitz on the motorcycle. Destroying it. So now LOBO has decided GUY has to pay for it and he's not leaving until he does.

Author's Notes:

Guy's design is an edit of the Pokemon Breeder sprite from Black and White. While Lobo's is an edit of the Biker sprite from HeartGold and Soulsilver. These designs are pretty old (over 4 years old!) and I haven't kept up much with pokemon trainer designs since then so one day I might give them more of an update.

The concept is the classic pokemon journey started because someone fucked up someone else's bike. Middle aged men edition! If I remember correctly the plan was that Lobo was hunting down a rare or legendary pokemon and was going to convince Guy to help him track it down as payment for the motorcycle. Before Guy became a pokemon breeder, he was a pokemon ranger and those skills would be helpful in that kind of journey. Well, I just got an idea for how that would end so now that's definitely what it would be. The end is still a secret though :P

Guy and Lobo's teams were decided between the release of Sun/Moon and Sword/Shield and Lobo's definitely needs at least one major edition (Obstagoon. He HAS to have one but I'm not sure who to cut yet).

Guy has his shiny growlithe, an exeggutor, an exploud, a breloom, a manectric, and a grumpig. All but the growlithe were with him when he did his gym challenge before becoming a pokemon ranger. He switched gears from the Punk Guy trainer class to the Pokemon Ranger trainer class before finishing the Hoenn gym challenge. The growlithe was the first pokemon he raised from an egg after becoming a Pokemon Breeder.

Lobo has a mightyena, a houndoom, an absol, a krookodile, an aggron, and a granbull. At his home Lobo has some lanturns, primarinas, frillish, finizen, and palafin that he doesn't take out on jobs. Obviously there is now an obstagoon in the mix but I still have to mull over who is getting removed from his team. Maybe the aggron?

Here is the initial drawing I did of Lobo confronting Guy after the bike incident and a drawing of Guy throughout his pokemon journey.

Blitz and Sophie McKnight belong to @loli-momo1908

At the hotel, Charlie was setting up some snacks at the table. Vaggie and the others were helping her out as well. After setting them on the table, Charlie left to go get the drinks. But when she came back with the drinks, Charlie saw Angel was about to eat the snacks.

Charlie - “Angel no! Put that down!”

Angel - *whining* “Oh come on! I haven't eaten all day! I had to skip breakfast! Can at least I have one snack, *makes puppy dog eyes* Plleeeeeeaaasssseeeee? *whimpers*”

Charlie - *sighs* “Alright but only one! I gotta save these for Sonya and Liz’s meeting.”

Angel - ”Meeting? What meeting?”

Vaggie - *annoyed* “Their Carny Rangers meeting Angel. Pay attention.”

Charlie - “They are part of the Carny Rangers. It’s like kid scouts but it's a circus theme. I used to be one myself.”

Hardy - “You were a girl scout, Charlie? Did you like to sell cookies and stuff?”

Charlie - *nods proudly* “Yep and we get badges and even did some circus shows too.”

Charlie pulls out an album and opens to show photographs of herself as a little girl wearing a clown-like scout uniform with other kids in matching clown-like scout uniforms.

Charlie - “There's me on my first day as a Carny Ranger.”

Vaggie - *cooing* “Aww you look so adorable!”

Charlie - “And of course my troop leader was my Dad.”

Charlie showed a picture of Lucifer Morningstar in a rather dorky troop leader outfit. The boys were all holding in their laughter from seeing the King of Hell in such an outfit.

Angel - *snickers* “I see he has a sense of style.”

Charlie - “He always made sure we had a lot of fun and earned badges too.”

Charlie turns the page and continues to show some pictures of her days in the Carny Rangers.

Charlie - *points to one picture* “There's us making balloon animals. I made a balloon poodle and named it Fifi.”

Sophie - “Aw, it looks so cool and cute!”

Charlie also turned the page in her book.

Charlie - “And this is where we went to one of Dad’s circus shows as a trip! The best part is he was part of the show!”

The picture showed Charlie and the other rangers watching Lucifer on a unicycle juggling.

Charlie - *points at another photo* “And there's us practicing our pie throwing. I accidently threw a pie at my dad's face, but he gave me a badge for such good aiming.”

The picture showed Charlie holding a badge with Lucifer standing next to her while his face was covered in pie.

Hardy - “Sounds like you had a lot during your scout days huh?”

Charlie - “I sure have, those were good times. *sighs in nostalgia* How I miss them.”

In her nostalgia, she hugs her photo album with a smile. It was one of her favorite childhood memories.

Charlie - “But I am glad my baby cousins can enjoy them too.”

Then there was a knock on the door.

Charlie - “Oh! They are here! Everybody be good to them remember they are only kids”

Charlie opens the door, and there, she sees Sonya in her Carny Ranger outfit accompanied by her fellow Carny Rangers in their matching outfits.

Sonya - “Hey Cousin Charlie!”

Charlie - “Sonya! I'm so glad you could make it! *gushes* Awwww, you look sooooo cute in your outfit.”

Sonya - *chuckles* “Thank you. The other scouts are here too.”

The Carny Rangers all did their signature Carny Ranger salute by pinching their noses and made honking noises. Charlie does the same by pinching her nose and making honking noises.

Charlie - *giggled* “Okay guys there are some snacks for you on the table just help yourself.”

Sonya and the Carny Rangers gathered at the table. The Carny Rangers were hellborn and some of them were young Imps, and hellhounds. Some even look older or younger than Sonya and Liz. They were chatting and eating snacks at the same time. Sophie looked interested in Sonya’s scout group.

Sophie - “So you guys do circus tricks?”

Sonya - “Oh sure, we do loads of circus tricks. We've been taught by the best after all.”

Hardy - “And who would that be?”

Just then, another knock on the door is heard. Charlie opened the door and saw it was Fizzarolli.

Fizzarolli - “Hey hey! It’s me, the fantastic Fizzarolli!”

Liz appears in shadow form and her face blushes from seeing Fizzarolli.

Hardy - *confused* “Who?”

Fizz - *shocked* “Wait, you seriously never heard of me? My face is on everything like cereal, toys, clothes, even people’s cars!”

Hardy shrugs his shoulders with a clueless expression on his face.

Charlie - “Umm he’s new in Hell.”

Fizzarolli - *winks and points at her* “Gotcha.”

Blitz - “Wait, aren't you that clown imp that works in the lust ring?”

Fizzarolli - *proudly* “That I am, my good bat demon. How kind of you to notice. Are you perhaps a fan of me?”

Blitz -*blunt* “No, I actually hate the lust ring because of the hormone overloading. And the kinks there are disgusting.

Fizzarolli - *deflated and deadpanned* “Oh.”

Then Fizz noticed Sophie hiding behind Blitz’s leg. Sophie gets a little shy when meeting new people.

Fizz - *cooing* “And who is this little doll?”

Blitz - “That’s my baby sister Sophie. *threateningly* You better not hurt her.”

Fizzarolli - “Oh relax, I'm great with kids. *to Sophie* Hey little girl, want some *brings out cotton candy like magic* cotton candy?”

Sophie - *eyes sparkle* “Ooh I love candy! *takes some and eat it* It’s so good!”

Fizz - “See? What did I tell ya?”

Blitz - *hummed* “Okay then.”

Angel - “So what made you decide to babysit a bunch of clown wannabes? Aren’t you like a big star or something?”

Fizz - “No, I'm still a big star. It’s just that ever since I stopped working for that fat greedy bastard Mammon I had a lot on my plate. Now I’m free to do what I want.”

Angel - *surprised* “You managed to quit your boss?”

Angel and Husk - *look at each other and simultaneously* “Lucky bastard.”

Charlie - “Yeah Uncle Mammon is not the type of person you would wanna work with.”

Hardy - “So what is your scout troop planning to do today, Ravioli?”

Fizzarolli - *annoyed* “That's Fizzarolli.”

Hardy - *shrugs* “Whatever.”

Fizzarolli - “Well I was planning on taking the kiddies either to a field trip or teaching some new circus tricks to get their next badges. But I figured maybe the teaching of the new circus tricks would be better since there is no interesting place to go to.”

Charlie - “Ooh maybe this can be a good exercise for my guests: learning to help young kids.”

Vaggie - “But that doesn’t mean you can hurt or prank them. I’m looking at you Angel.”

Angel - *groans* “Must you always have to kill my fun?”

Sir Pentious - “I’m sure the little ones will have a grand time with me. I know how to speak their language.”

Niffty - “I would love to clean up the messes after them!”

Husk - “Wait, so we're babysitting a bunch of kids today? I thought this was a rehabilitation hotel, not a babysitting service.”

Charlie - “Oh come on, Husk. It can be fun. You can even show off some of your old magic tricks to the kids.”

Sonya - “Yeah dude. I mean, you even showed your magic tricks to me and Sophie.”

Sophie - “Yeah! They are really cool.”

Husk - *slightly blushes* “I guess that would be okay. I mean it's better than showing it to some drunk motherfuckers.”

Ranger 1 - *scoff* “I bet he’s too old to show any good magic tricks.”

Husk - *cold glare* “I beg your freaking pardon?”

Ranger 1 - “Since you don’t wanna show us your tricks I think you actually don't because you’re just too old. Maybe you’re better off playing bingo.”

Some of the Carney Rangers giggled at this. Husk gets up with a serious face and starts to show them the best magic trick that these kids could ever see. Husk shuffled some cards and then he made them disappear. Then Angel starting coughing and some cards started coming out of his mouth.

Kids - *amazed* “Oooh!”

Angel - *annoyed* “Ya could have at least given me a heads up!”

Husk - *smug* “How's that for an old man?”

Sonya - “Wow Husk that was awesome!!”

Ranger 2 - “How do you do that?”

Husk - “Important rule #1 of magicians: Magicians should never reveal their secrets.”

Angel - “Ooh I got some magic I can teach you kids.”

Vaggie - “Angel no dirty jokes!”

Angel - “What dirty joke? I was going to show them the classic finger removing trick.”

Sophie - *shocked* “Removing your finger?! Won’t there be blood?”

Angel - “Not at all, observe.”

Angel began to do the trick and Sophie along with the Carny Rangers were impressed by the trick. Charlie was happy that Angel was actually spending time with the kids and not actually crude.

Charlie - “See guys? Told you it’s a good thing so they can learn to help others.”

Sir Pentious - “You think my invention can help these children as well?”

Hardy - “Depends, what kind of invention is it?”

Egg Boi - “Laser guns and bombs!”

Charlie - “Sorry Sir Pentious that’s WAY too dangerous for the kids.”

Blitz - “And what does have that to do with circus stuff?”

Vaggie - *glare* “And I thought I told you. No. More. Weapons!”

Sir Pentious - “But you don’t know when they are needed! Besides, it would help the kiddies with new tricks like ummm…dodging!”

Vaggie - *deadlier glare and poking his chest* “No! More! WEAPONS!”

Sir Pentious - *pouting* “Oh fine!”

Hardy - “I think it would be a nice change of pace. I haven't had a client call me for a case in a couple of days.”

Charlie - “Then it's settled, today's rehab activity is helping kids! *to Fizzarolli* So Troop Leader Fizzarolli, what's the first thing we're going to do?”

Fizzarolli - *checks the Carny Ranger merit badge book* “Let me see…”

He took out big goofy glasses and began to flip some pages. Then he stop at the one he thought was perfect.

Fizzarolli - “Ooh! After the meeting of the snacks and shit, we can earn badges that they didn’t get yet. Like there’s the animal tamer badge and people pymarid badge and-“

Sonya - “What about the Mammon badge?”

Fizzarolli - “Oh hold it little lady! That’s for the advance Carny Rangers. You squirts are just the beginners.”

Hardy - “What's the Mammon badge?”

Fizzarolli - “A rare badge that only certain advance Carny Rangers can get. It involves them doing super dangerous stunts like only certain people like moi can do.”

Hardy - *astonished* “Who in their right mind would make a badge like that?! That sounds highly unnecessary, not to mention unsanitary for a merit badge!”

Blitz - “Yeah, who thought of this, anyways?!”

Fizzarolli - *deadpanned* “Take a wild guess.”

Hardy and Blitz - “Mammon?”

Fizzarolli - *makes a bell noise* “Bingo! We have a winner.”

Angel - *disgusted* “Just what the fuck is wrong with this guy?! Is he like a suicidal sadist or something?! Jeez!”

Fizzarolli - “Hey he’s the King of Greed. Not the King of The Charity with Hug and Kisses.”

Hardy - *to Charlie* “Didn't your father have a say in this?! I mean he is The King of Hell.”

Charlie - “It’s not that easy to change Uncle Mammon’s mind. Changing Uncle Mammon’s mind is like trying to give a cat a bath. Plus, my dad tries his best to stay away from Uncle Mammon, not that I blame him since considering how he's always gloating that they're best friends, which they're not. He even got the nerves to say that Dad allowed him to create his own version of LuLu World.”

Fizzarolli - *groans* “Don't remind me. *clears throat* Moving on from that, let's doing something easy and fun to do, like...*looks through the merit badge book and picks one* Oh, like this one here, the Ball Balancing Badge?”

()()()()()()()()()

At the hotel’s backyard, all Carny Rangers all balancing on top of giant circus balls, like how circus animals would have done it. Sonya was struggling a bit trying to keep her balance.

Sonya - *struggling* “Man this is tougher than I thought.”

Charlie - “You can do it baby cuz, just keep your balance.”

Curious about the Rangers keeping balance on the ball, and deciding that it looked fun, Sophie got on the ball and tried it out. She managed to keep her balance but began to think.”

Sophie - “Hmm do I go forward or backwards?”

Blitz - *worriedly* “Whoa, be careful sis! You'll hurt yourself if you're not careful!”

Hardy - “Hey dude chill she will be okay.”

Blitz - “I just don’t want her to get hurt.”

Hardy - “I understand but you can’t be too overprotective of her. She need to learn and have fun too.”

Blitz - “Yeah, well, can she at least wear a helmet so she doesn't hurt her head?”

Hardy - *rolls his eyes* “I suppose that's fair.”

Blitz summoned a pink helmet for Sophie. But then he saw Sophie walking forward on the ball.

Sophie - “Look Blitzy! I’m doing it!”

Sophie also started to balance on the ball as well. Blitz was impressed and relief that Sophie can do it he magic the helmet away.

Fizzaroli - *impressed* “Kid's got talent! I sense another future Carny Ranger!”

Sophie - *excited* “Really? I can be a Carny Ranger!”

Fizzarolli - “Of course!”

Sophie - *excited* “Eee! I think this stuff is fun!!”

Blitz - *unsure* “You sure you wanna do it Sophie?”

Sophie - “Can I, big brother? *puppy dog eyes* Pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee?”

Sophie gives Blitz a super innocent smile that Blitz has so much trouble of ignoring.

Blitz - *gives in* “Okay fine you can join the Carney Rangers.”

Sophie - *jumps in the air in happines* Yyyyaaaayyyyy!!!!! *lunges and hugs Blitz* “Oh thank you, Blitzy! Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!”

Blitz smiled and hugs her back. One of the things that always make him happy was seeing his baby sister happy.

Now the Carny Rangers were trying to do animal training. One was trying to use the hoop for Fat Nuggets to jump through.

Carny Ranger - “Come on! Jump through the hoop!”

Fat Nuggets just roll around on the ground

Ranger - *frustrated* “Ugh! Why did I get stuck with the pig?”

Ranger 2 - “Because the cat, goats, and egg things were already taken.”

One of the Rangers was training KeeKee to walk on her hind legs. Another was having the Goat Bois balance cupcakes on their noses, but they keep on eating them. The Egg Bois was helping another Ranger jump through hoops, but they keep missing either jumping to short, get cracked after jumping through, or trip after the first step.

Ranger - “Maybe I’m doing something wrong?”

Ranger 2 - “Maybe you gotta throw him?”

Ranger - “Yeah! That way he can see what he gotta do.”

He picked up Fat Nuggets and was about to throw him like a football. But the squeals of getting picked up was loud enough for Angel to hear it.

Angel - *shouts* NO!

Angel Dust races in and swipes Fat Nuggets away from them. He held Fat Nuggets protectally in his arms.

Angel - *angry* “Don't. EVER! throw my baby! *coos towards Fat Nuggets* Oh there, there Nuggy. Daddy won't let them throw you. *smooches*”

Fat nuggets oink and nuzzles on Angel’s chest.

Ranger - “But we need our animal tamer badge!”

Ranger 2 - “And this pig isn’t doing anything we say.”

Angel looked annoyed, but he felt a pat on his leg. He looked down and saw Sophie.

Sophie - “May I try, Angel? I promise I won't throw him.”

Angel - “Well, okay, but only because I trust you with him.”

Angel places Fat Nuggets down and Sophie pulls out a cookie.

Sophie - “Look Nuggy, I got you a cookie. You want it?”

Fat Nuggets oinks happily while wagging his tail like a puppy.

Sophie - “Lie down.”

Fat Nuggets lie on his belly.

Sophie - “Roll over.”

Fat Nugget rolls around in a circle.

Sophie - “Play dead.”

Fat Nuggets gets on his back and makes a fake dying squeal and stuck it's tongue out.

Sophie - “Good boy, Nuggy.”

Sophie gives Fat Nuggets the cookie and rubs his belly as he nums on it.

Sophie - *gushes* “Who's a good boy? Who's a good boy? You are, oh yes you are.”

Sonya - *impressed* “Wow! That was amazing Sophie.”

Ranger - “How did you do that?”

Blitz - *smiles* “My baby sister has a way with animals.”

Fizzarolli - “That the thing you gotta learn kiddies; you need to be gentle with animals. Take me for example, *pulls out a long flip photo wallet of pictures and points a picture* I own nine quieves and treat like they were my own babies.”

Charlie - *gushing* “Aww they look so adorable!”

Fizzarolli - “Oh I agree. *points at the albino handicapped queef* Especiall my little precious one, right here. She's the first one I adopted.”

Hardy - “I didn’t know there were fly dogs in Hell.”

Blitz - “They're called Quieves, Hardy. They're one of the most popular pets in Hell. I've seen a few celebrities have one or two.”

Hardy - “Quieves? What a really strange name. They look more like Chupacabras to me?”

Fizzarolli - *confused* “Chew-what now?”

Hardy - “Chupacabras. You know, those mythical blood-sucking creatures from Mexican folklore that eat goats.”

Charlie - “Oh, we have those here in Hell, but they look way different than they do. Our Chupacabras are more lizard-looking.”

As they were talking Sonya noticed Liz was acting a bit weird. Liz is usually more social than her sister but acting shy and quiet.

Sonya - *concered* “Hey are you okay? You usually love to come out and practiced.”

Liz - blushing* “Uh yeah, I'm fine, totally fine.”

Then Sonya notices Liz is staring at Fizzarolli, and she starts to realize what is wrong with her twin sister.

Sonya - *realizes* “Oh, I get it. You have a crush on our troop leader, don't you?”

Liz - *flustered* “What?! No! Of course not!”

Sonya - “Come on I know that look. I get that whenever I’m around Stolas.”

Liz - *flustered* “W-Well, have you ever considered wearing glasses?! C-Cause I do NOT have a crush on him! Nuh-uh! No way! Never in all of my life!”

Sonya - *deadpanned* “Then why are your cheeks blushing?”

Liz - “Uhhh sunburnt?”

Sonya - “Oh come on, sis! It's perfectly fine to have a crush. Unlike you, I won't tease you for it.”

Liz - *embarrassed* “Oooooohhhh, fine! I admit it! I have a crush on Fizz!”

Sonya - “See? Was that so hard to admit?”

Liz - *desprated* “What am I gonna do, sis? I never felt this way before!”

Sonya - “Just be cool about it and act regular around him.”

Liz - *deep breath* “Okay, I can do this. I can do this.... I CANNOT do this!”

Liz hides behind Sonya like a absolute starstruck fan.

Sonya - “Man this is so weird seeing you like this.”

Liz slumps to the floor in embarassment while covering her eyes and moan.

()()()()()()()()()

The Carny Rangers are now doing their next activty. Fizz was walking on his hands while on a low tightrope.

Fizzarolli - “Okay kiddies! The next activity is the walk on the tight rope. But since you’re beginniners, we will start on a short height.”

Fizzarolli creates another tight rope that is close to the ground and not way up high in the air like your usual tightropes.

Fizzarolli - “Now who want to go first?”

Sophie - *raises her hand excitedly* “Oh-Oh-Oh! Me, me, me, me!”

Charlie - *giggled* “I can see this little one is excited.”

Fizz - “Okay girly, you’re first!”

Sophie gets on the tightrope. Going nice and slow, she crosses to the other side of the tight rope without losing her balance. Sophie was feeling a little nervous but then heard her brother saying:

Blitz - “I’m right here baby girl.”

This gives Sophie the confident she needs and steadily approaches the other end of the tightrope and made it to the end.

Sophie - *happily* “I did it!”

The Carney Rangers cheered for Sophie. Even Blitz and the others cheered for Sophie.

Fizz - “This kid has natural talent!”

Liz was watching everyone cheering for Sophie and can't help but feel a little jealous for the little girl. Sure, she is innocent and only doing it for fun, but she really wishes that she has some attention from the troop leader.

Sonya - “Sophie is doing awesome!”

Liz - *grumbles* Yeah, I guess. *sighs* I wish I could do something to impress Fizz.”

But then, Liz felt the Carny Rangers book in her pocket and then had an idea.

Liz - “I think I know what to do!”

Sonya - “What are you thinking, sis?”

Liz - “I can do such an amazing trick to impress Fizz!”

Sonya - “And what trick would that be?”

Liz - “The most awesome trick of all time!”

Sonya - *worried* “That's what worries me.”

Liz got out the book and flip through the pages.

Liz - “See? They got some neat tricks that I can do!”

Sonya - “Well yeah, but which exactly are you planning to do?”

Liz - *points to Mammon badge* “This one.”

Sonya - *shocked* “What?! Are you crazy?!”

Liz - *shrugs* “Probably but I know I can do this!”

Sonya - “Fizzarolli specifically told us NOT to do this badge because it was too dangerous! We aren’t advance Rangers yet!”

Liz - *devious smile* “Yet. But once we achieve this badge, Fizzarolli will surely recognize me--I mean, us!”

Sonya - *shakes her head* “Dude this is a bad idea.”

Liz - “Oh come on, Sonya! I will do ANYTHING you ask if help with me this.”

Sonya - “Anything?”

Liz - “Yes, anything.”

Sonya - *reclunet* “Well alright it’s a deal.”

Liz - *pumps fist* “Yes, thank you! *pulls her in and whispers* Now here's the plan…”

Liz whispers her plan to Sonya while the other Carny Rangers are taking turns on the tightrope.

Ranger 1 - “Man this is scary…”

Hardy - “You got this kid, just keep your head up, eyes forward, and don't look down.”

Blitz - “Just remember to keep your balance.”

The Carny Ranger slowly moves across the tightrope to reach the other end, until he finally made it.

Ranger - *happy* “Yay I did it!”

Fizzarolli - “That's the spirit! I knew you could do it!”

Hardy - “You said it, Spaghetti!”

Fizzarolli - *annoyed* “That's Fizzarolli.”

Hardy - *shrugs* “Whatever.”

Sophie - “I wanna do more Carney Rangers stuff!”

Charlie - *looks on a clipboard* “Hold on, Sonya and Liz haven't gone yet. Now where are they?”

Angel - “Haven’t seen those Twuirts”

Vaggie - “Neither have I.”

Hardy, and Blitz shrugged as they haven't seen them either. Even Sophie shook her head since she hasn’t seen them either.

Charlie - “Sonya! Liz! Where are you?”

Charlie looks around to find her cousins, until finally she sees that causes her to gasp in utter shock. She sees Sonya and Liz on top of tall tightrope over a pit of fire.

Charlie - *sternly and loud* “Sonya Josephine and Elizabeth Charlotte Morningstar!! Get down from there right now!!”

Liz - *dismissived* “No worry, Cuz! We got this! This will only take a few minutes!”

Hardy and the others arrive to see what was going on, and have mixed emotions of what they are seeing.

Hardy - *worried* “Girls, what do you think you're doing?! That's dangerous! You both could get hurt!”

Angel - “Ya WAY too young for this shit!”

Vaggie - “Get down here now!”

Liz - “Don't get your knickers in a knot, It's perfectly under control!”

Sonya was in her shadow form and was looking worried on what her sister was planning to do.

Sonya - *scared* “Liz I don’t think we should do this. It’s way too dangerous!”

Liz - “Oh relax, everything is totally under control. Now let’s do this!”

Liz starts walking on the tightrope, slowly reaching to the other side. However, as she half-way there, something bad happens. Liz almost lost her balance but managed to get it back and she began breathing heavily. Liz was looking nervous as this was happening.

Sonya - *worried* “You okay?”

Liz - *nervously* “I’m fine! I’m fine *to herself* I’m gonna die.”

But Liz took a deep breath and kept walking but all a sudden, it started to get too windy, and the fire rises up and began to burn the rope. The rope burnt and Liz began to fall and scream.

Charlie - *shouts* “SONYA! LIZ!”

But then, just when Hardy and the guys were going to rescue them, Fizzrolli leaps into action with his high-tech limbs, catching the twins before they were burnt to a crisp.

Fizz pulled them back toward them and said:

Fizz - “You okay sweetheart?”

Liz was feeling scare and traumatized and just hugged Fizz tightly while crying.

Fizzarolli - *comforting* “There, there. I got ya. You're safe now.”

Vaggie - *relief* “Thank Lucifer they are okay.”

Charlie runs towards them to take Liz out of Fizz's arms as she comforts her.

Charlie - *soothing* “It’s okay sweetie you’re safe.”

Liz continued crying as Sonya tried to comfort her.

()()()()()()()()

Within a while, Liz finally calmed down as everyone gathered around her to hear an explanation.

Hardy - *sternly* “Liz we just want to know why you did what you did. You could of seriously gotten hurt. Or worse.”

Liz - *sighs* “I just wanted to impressed Fizz.”

Fizzarolli - “Impress me? What for?”

Liz - “Because you are so cool and I wanted to show you that I can be cool too.”

Sonya:l - “Also because she has a fan crush on you.”

Liz - *embrassed and blushes* “Sonya!”

Fizz - *chuckles* “Well she’s not the first.”

Liz - *blushes* “Yeah, w-well, not like a lustful crush like those other creeps do and purchase several of your robot duplicates. *sighs* I thought that... if I did something amazing, you would give me praise too, like how you've been giving Sophie today. I thought that if I obtain the Mammon badge, you would be proud of me.”

Fizz - *smiles* “Ah, Lizzie. You don't need to do something huge to impress me.”

Liz - “I don’t?”

Fizz - “Of course not. You just doing the tricks you are able to do is impressive to me. Heck, you managed to impress me with that prank you uploaded the other day.”

Fizz shows a video on his Sinphone, showing Liz committing a prank on Mammon during a meeting with the Seven Deadly Sins. She put a big bottle rocket on Mammon’s chair and ran to the corner. Then just when Mammon sat down, the bottle rocket went off and Mammon litteraly flew off his seat and bang into the celing.

Fizz - *laughs* It was so priceless! One of my top ten favorites!

Charlie - *giggled* “I have to admit that was funny.”

Liz - *chuckles* “Well Uncle Mammon did deserve it for being a total douche. He even ate all the cookies during the meeting and didn’t leave me some!”

Fizz - “That's what I like about you, kid. You being able to stand up to someone by the likes of Mammon. It took me a decade and a half to stand up to him because I felt like that I was indebted to him.”

Hardy - “Really why?”

Fizz - “I thought it was him that made me who I am but thanks to my friends and Ozzie I realize even if I didn’t turn out the way I did I would still be me. So you being you is all you need to do, kid. Just be yourself.”

Liz makes a big smile and gives Fizzarolli a big hug.

Liz - *happy* “Thank you so much.”

Fizzarolli - *hugs back* “You're welcome.”

Liz - “Ummm are you gonna tell my parents about this? I do deserve getting grounded.”

Fizzarolli - “Unfortunately, yes. It's part of the code of being a troop leader.”

Liz - *sighs* “Fair enough. Hopefully it’s only I’m grounded for 2 weeks.”

Sonya - *scoff* “More like 2 months.”

Vaggie - “Or 6 months.”

Charlie - “But we are glad that you are okay.”

Angel - “Yeah, and seriously, next time, try to think twice before planning on something crazy like that. Ya still a little shrimp to do something like that.”

Blitz - “Yeah you could of gotten badly hurt or worst.”

Liz - *smiles* “Okay, guys. I promise to never do something stupid like that again. But there is one thing I want to do.”

()()()()()()()()

In a Carny Ranger-like ceremony, Sophie was standing in the center as Liz approaches her.

Liz - “Sophie McKnight, for showing such great circus skills, I hereby dub thee an honorary Carny Ranger.”

Liz places a Carny Ranger hat on Sophie's head.

Liz - *smiles* “Welcome to the troop Cupcake.”

Fizzarolli, Sonya, Liz, and the Carny Rangers do the honking salute to her. Sophie squeal in happiness that she’s becoming an official Carny Ranger.

Sophie - *excited* “This is so amazing!!”

Fizz - “Also here’s your first badge sweetie: The Animal Tamer badge.”

Fizzarolli places the badge on Sophie, as she, with a smile, does the honking salute back to her fellow troop. She showed the badge to Blitz and he smiled and gave his sister a big hug.

Blitz - “I’m so proud of you Sophie. You really are becoming a big girl.”

Sophie - *hugs back* “Thanks big brother.”

Sonya - “How about we celebrate with some pie?”

Liz - “But let do it carny style!”

Liz took a pie and she smashed one at Sonya’s face. Much to her annoyance.

Fizzarolli - *gleeful* “Ooo, a pie fight! Rangers, pies at the ready!”

The Rangers grabs the pies and began to throw them at each other. Even Sophie was in the pie fight and she began to throw some pies as well. Vaggie had Charlie duck under a table but Charlie was happily watching.

Charlie - *happily sighs* “This brings back a lot of memories. Can’t wait to do this next week!”

The end
