#blorbo ask

[tiger-manya]

I know you want to talk about Order of the Stick

Ah, you know exactly what to ask. (Vzlitaem, beware of spoilers!)

Blorbo: Vaarsuvius. I can pretend it's someone else, but why should we sour our relationship with cheep lies? To be even more honest, Vaarsuvius could be the answer to every question on this list, but let's make it a little more interesting.

Scrunky: Shout out to every small animal in oots ever, particularly the bag of tricks animals and divorce wizard frog familiar.

Look!

Scrimblo bimblo: I could say O-Chul, but I think he is pretty universally loved, same with Roy and Haley. So I say Celia, I really miss her.

Glup Shitto: Sean Bean made an appearance in Stick Tales. I still can't get over it. Also Kyrie's children. They are essentially non-characters, but I have enough geadcanons about them to fuel a campaign.

Poor little meow meow: Sabine and Nale. They are sick, but their relationship is healthy and I love it. Also an honourable mention to Crystal. The girl was dumb and cruel, but she had a style.

Horse plinko: I'd say Redcloak, but lovingly. I don't want him to suffer, I want him to fall tragically until he hits the character development (or, well, the tragic end). I want him singing Western by Vivienne Mort.

Eeby deeby: I'm pretty sure superhell is real in-universe, and it's the place some characters call home. Like, Kubata is already there, I'm sure. I also want to clarify that I don't hate any of the characters in oots as characters, even the genuinely terrible people like Eugene, Tarquin, or Xykon. Yeah, I want to see Xykon defeated, but I don't hate reading about him. I used to hate Belkar, but those days are long gone.

In terms of pure personal antipathy, I'd say vampire Durkon, and let's leave it at that.

(Here is the post in question as a screenshot because I'm on mobile and don't have electricity.)

Happy blorbo blursday!

Which one of your characters is most likely to wake up their entire neighborhood? (I feel like I know the answer to this but I still wanna ask)

How would they do it? Would it be an accident or purposeful?

Hi pasta!! Happy blursday to you too and thanks for the question!

If you tought the answers would be Katz or Jiang, you were right!

The thing is that they would not do that on purpose. Katz would be waking up very early because she has to go raiding merchants ships with the Alliance. To do that, she has to prepare some weapons, get dressed in her clunky boots, and grab all the things for her ship. She lives in a place with very thin walls, and the equipment she manoeuvres is heavy, and noisy. She would probably wake everyone up just because of that. Especially because she is too tired to really pay attention at how much noise she is making.

Jiang instead would wake everyone up studying. One could think that studying is a quiet activity, but no, not with Jiang. He is a magic Scholar, keep in mind. He has to exercise with water, especially. Imagine that he lost control of it, because he is not exactely a top student. He would flood his entire apartment, or drain all the pipes, or make them explode. And being short tempered he would also yell at the water while practicing. Imagine the poor neighbors!

Darkest dungeon highwayman and bounty hunter for the blorbo bingo <3

(send me a character for blorbo bingo)

eheheheh nice

dismas (highwayman)

he's my boy, he's by bestie, he's the one unit i always max out before everyone else ahahah

he's my favorite unit and favorite character. love me some old men

tardif (bounty hunter)

as much as i'm happy that he's in dd2, and i like the mechanic of having one occasional unit that you can swap with someone in the party for a map, it's still a shame that he gets shrine of reflection. ig his point is to be mysterious, but man i want to know more.

also the amount of fics (ship fics to be exact) where people have to soften him up to make him fit the scenarios in their head is concerning. are you telling me people don't like him because he's a piece of shit, and instead need to make him a soft boy?

Happy blorbo blursday :D. If your OCs were teleported to our world, how would they react?

Thanks @cheeto-flavoured-pasta for the ask!

I don't have any OCs, but if the TFLOC characters were teleported to our world, they would probably have... an identity and cultural crisis.

Because they're anthropomorphic (which means they have human proportions... ofc), and their world of origin has different technology and beliefs, the TFLOC characters would suffer a cultural shock.

We don't share the same language. They'd probably die alone lol, or be surrounded by people and get overwhelmed

[ash-and-starlight]

the black mold told me to draw this

[noodles-and-tea]

I politely ask for more of the vague modern AU art :3 they're so silly I LOVE them

They’re playing sister location, specifically night 4

[fireflysugarpie]

I'm literally so obsessed with the fact that Shang Qinghua and Shen Qingqiu married the most extreme versions of each other

like, I'm pretty sure that people have already brought this up, but Shang Qinghua and Luo Binghe have the same, "I'm just a little guy, you wouldn't hurt a little guy, would you?" pathetic, pitiful, crybaby aura (even though Binghe is a lot more selective with it lol)

and Shen Qingqiu and Mobei-Jun are icy beauty, rich, dense, spoiled brats that both go insane over (1) pitiful hamster man (for different reasons, but still)

I feel like if they didn't fucking die and get transmigrated, they could've had a cute assholes to assholes but lovers arc :<

[deerspherestudios]

For all three, how would they react to a mistletoe? If they knew what it meant? 👀

👻 Alma / Vida : Being a ghost sadly they can't smooch,,, :-(

🍄 Mychael : Too ace to comprehend the tradition. (Unless...?)

👽 Atom : WILL EXPLOIT THE MISTLETOE THE SHIP IS FULL OF MISTLETOE (TRAPS)!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️

[insertdisc5]

are there any fan works that have made you rethink one of your own characters?

no lol. however allow me to go on a tangent for a minute.

i have been on tumblr for a very long time. i have been in fandoms. i have made my fanworks. ive seen Stuff. so i know how people react to fandoms and characters they love. which is (and i mean this with no judgment! and even love!!!): fans add their own flavor to the characters, sometimes enhancing them, but also, sometimes, making the character. completely. unrecognizable

again, no judgment!!!!! ive done it myself!!! often!!!! all the time!!!! you can search for it here on my tumblr!!!! i've done it and i love doing it!!!! hashtag my blorbo now!!!! HOWEVER. when i was making ISAT, i did not think it would blow up like this. but i am someone who prepares for every eventuality, so i did think ok. well. what if it does blow up like this. and people. make. my little guys. from my heart. my bosom. absolutely. unrecognizable

all this to say that if you're making a project that could become Tumblrized(affectionate), or even any kind of project: i highly recommend writing down what your characters mean to you. why you made them like this. what made you go down this route. why did you make this project in the first place. what does this Mean To You And You Alone. so that if your character becomes Unrecognizable. you can still remember what you put in them first. and people can Tumblrize to their hearts content and you can be happy and the people can be happy and we can all hold hands having a different version of the blorbo in our brains

[full-on-sam]

happy blorbo blursday (again, because I forgot to ask this second question the first time I submitted to the ask box). If your OCs went to a theme park, who would act like what? Like who would go on all the rollercoasters, who would cry after every ride, who would just go on the childrens’ rides, etc. etc.

Hi, happy blrobo blursday to you too and thanks for the question!!

So, I think Katz would be the adrenaline junkie. She would go on all rides, and drag Nayeli with her. They would try to persuade Souad, who instead would suffer from nausea and vertigo. She would prefer water rides I think!

Haakon and Jiang would bet each other that they cannot do certain things, increasingly more and more close to being illegal. At a certain point they would try to prove each other that they can still fit in the kids ride, and they would get SO stuck!

[for-those-who-wait]

I love how blorboish you draw Hunter.

Thank you thank you! He looks like I slapped googly eyes onto him which was completely accidental but I'm actually laughing so hard at it and don't want to change it

He is a sad little blorbo, let him enjoy his icecream

[olivescales3]

Happy Blorbo Blursday! Which of your characters/blorbos is most like you?

Thank you for the ask!

A character of TFLOC I really like... Honestly, I'd say that I like all of them, equally. I'm writing everyone with extreme care, and because of this I, I can't say I have a favorite.

But!

For this ask, I'll answer with Razar; I have so much new content about him and his tribe, to the point where I've basically rewritten his culture (no, I didn't overwrite the original Raven Tribe, it's just that the one presented in LOC is the past version in TFLOC). I hope you're also interested in him!
