#but thats wooork

[grirnoires]

hi :) i really like your ocs and conlangs! i was wondering if your characters have any nicknames that are puns based on their native language that don't translate cleanly to english. ive been scrolling through the backlog of the tag and im very much enjoying it <3 (also do you accept fanart of your ocs? ty !!!)

i am a little embarassed to say that my conalngs arent fleshed out enough for that yet... though iguess rajo counts for this. his full given name is rajenaya which means flowering of our hope, or rajo ("hope") for short. sometimes people call him rajolaan ("hopeless") but he HATES that. only otresa can call him that

also i would lose my mind and go crazy if anyone drew fanart of my ocs that woild be so cool 💥💥

why do i still see ppl reblogging from blogs i blocked 😕 i thought thats not how it wooorks

[trueoathbreaker]

alisa "bubbles" aoki (relationship to aoi unknown)

after a lot of....whatever that was I got palia to wooork??? well its freezing every so often and the audio cuts out (they do say that bluetooth should be off which is what i use and im sorry palia my headphone jack is busted so i have to use this :( so idk if thats why its happening but i ASSUME)

it works fine on low settings (the custom was medium but it got laggy)

if the switch version lets me use the same account i'll probably just play on switch bc i assume it will run...somewhat better

[isaacathom]

accidentally prompted myself to reconsider the lotmv story, so thats fun

the premise, such that it was, was that Seora was a demigod of light, and had funky light magic. And there was a weird magical darkness that had corrupted the land, and she was one of a whole class of people who keep it at bay. But that 'bay' is pretty politicised, and at some point the whole forced to live with the magical darkness kidnap Seora to make her fix things for them. And then a whole lot of shit happens.

And that's... fine? i guess. but i think it could be better, and part of that is just. telling the big grand politics angle to leave. there was a lot of weird geopolitics happening and we dont need that.

the changes arent unprecedented, since i tried to fix the story earlier too lmao.

what i think id prefer is something a bit more. social?

In a reconsidered lotmv, Seora is still a light demigod, and still has these very specific duties that she's been practically raised for since birth. There's strict duties and hierarchies and so on, things she can and cant do. She has a 'boyfriend', a bodyguard called Roderick, who has absolutely has no interest in but cannot very well reject, because to do so would be stepping out of the social agreement. it would cause problems for them both, but mostly for her. So she's stuck in her job, and in a "relationship".

At some point, she is contacted by Esther, who is a member of a group trying to fix the magic goop problem - a group whose reasonable requests for aid keep being denied. The two start a very careful correspondence, each bound by the norms around them.

An idea comes into focus. Seora would like nothing more than to help them, but the binds of her position stay her hand. She cant do anything. And if she acts out and voices her support, she'll be stripped of whatever "authority" she had while remaining bound.

So, to get Seora into the correct locations, a kidnapping will be staged. The group will kidnap Seora, bring her back to their place, and "force" her to help them. Once she's done what she needs to do, the group will suddenly become amenable to any of the negotiations presented by Seora's people, and they'll return her. She'll not be harmed, her reputation will be preserved, everythings fine.

For the optics, to make it seem that she's unwilling, they'll need to play up some things. She understands this going in. That they'll need to skirt the line for the greater good. She has her part to play.

And what she doesnt reckon with, prior to agreeing to everything, is on falling in love with Esther. And Esther doesn't either.

And that's a problem. Because if Seora starts getting too comfortable, enjoys herself too much, then the whole part of the operation intended to preserve her reputation fails. Because, well, now she looks willing. And that defeats the whole point.

So the two of them are stuck in a complicated dance of the various expectations of them, what they need to do, what roles they have to serve, and what they want.

Because, for Esther, Seora's help is essential. She's the one person that was on board. They need her magical skills. Esther was willing to risk being caught kidnapping her, because the end goal is very important to her. And now she's in love. And that risks the whole fucking thing.

Strictly, this could have all been "present" in the original version of lotmv, but its a slight reframing to be about those expectations and complications. There's still the issue of what exactly Esther's group is, how they fit in/oppose Seora's. In the original, they're different countries. i feel like that still wooorks? two countries who are not on speaking terms, a group within that countries military (?) who feel they have no other choice. there's some little worldbuilding... bits that make things weird, but its workable, i think. maybe? idk

hiii so you may notice that suddenly that one server isn't pinned up here anymore. it's because a CERTAIN SOMEONE cough cough has been making new accounts to get around her ban from the server and literally just is like "she did nothing wrong!!!" then leaves. anyways now we have to go full lockdown so.

to join the server instead of just clicking the link you have to dm me on here and ask for an invite. and kitsune if you're reading this don't even think about making alt accounts on here too bc literally everybody knows when its you, plus i won't accept people who's tumblrs and/or discords that have been recently made. (as well as like, terfs and proshippers and shit but thats obvious lmao)

ALSO since i've seen a few people confused about this; this is a fandom server lmfaooo it's for the book series The Terrible Two by mac barnett and jory john. if you're interested in reading it, @/methbongs has sum free reading websites linked. now, i won't deny you from entering if you aren't a ttt freak like us, but im just saying it wasn't made just for chatting and shit so lol.

thats all sparkle on and such (and if you are kitsune have an awful day)

oooh thats better, last time i watched step up was a couple of years ago and i totally forgot abt the rejection at first jdbxj

mickey not being keen to work with someone he doesnt know not only because hes not the most trusting person in the world but also cus dance is his passion and hes a perfectionist

hed totally make ian wooork before they start actually practising together, i can see mickey begrudgingly admit to himself that ian is pretty good and ian working hard to earn mickeys trust

ohoh and ian play what cool gallagher definitely tries to get mickey to show him some moves hands on by fucking up in a not so discreet way

seriously tho someone who can focus for longer than 10 seconds at a time plsplspls write this

thoughts on a gallavich step up au? mickey as tyler and ian as nora of course

WOW I like it!

Wait hear me out, what if we kinda stick to canon story line of Ian becoming a janitor at Lip’s college? So Ian is Tyler and Mickey is Nora?

You know having that angsty sad recently diagnosed Ian discovers dancing in a healthy way instead of the gay clubs way, right?

Anyways Mickey’s parter gets hurt (?) and he needs a new partner. Ian offers to help, but Mickey refuses. After Ian proves to him he can handle the routine, Mickey let him rehearse with him, at least until he finds a proper replacement. at the beginning they argue all the fucking time, but as rehearsals continue they actually get a long and have amazing chemistry.

I think it makes sense that way (because I don’t see Ian pushing Mickey away at any universe) but I mean either way I AM INTO IT. Like someone please writes this asap. Please.

here are my thoughts, headcanons, about the human owners in the Cats universe. i have cats 2019 in mind with all of this, but a lot of this could easily apply to the stage musical ‘verses, if you’re so inclined. i haven’t thought about them in Great Detail but i have pictured a lot of these cats at home, so i’ve pictured their humans a little. oh side note: when i imagine humans in this universe, i operate on lady and the tramp logic where you cannae properly see them. like, from the neck down at the highest. maintaining the cats themselves as the focal characters. so yeah here are the few hcs i have about people who in my mind literally have no faces or names

munkustrap: i’ve considered the idea that his family is rich but it turns out he lives in a flat thats directly next to a junkyard. i think they’re middle class, maybe even upper middle class, because it’s not cheap to live so close to trafalgar square (that and a lot of these cats live close to each other and we see other cat’s homes that are well off). anyways, they’re a generic late 1930s family. in an idyllic way, really. i’ve based them off the human family in lady and the tramp. munkustrap being our lady. so there’s a husband, a wife and a baby. and there’s also an aunt who takes care of munku when the family is away on holiday. i gave them a baby to add even more to munku’s Paternal Instincts. they’re pleasant people and they treat munkustrap well. the lady of the household brushes him. munku has a bed in the lounge/kitchen area but sometimes they let him sleep on the foot of the bed. munku wants caviar like it’s crack so i have to assume he’s tasted it at least once. this would imply very indulgent owners. or they might have dropped some at a party, who knows. they’re not strict with munku (he can go where he wants to, get given Human Food, sleep on Human Beds) but this never led to him being spoilt because he respects his family a lot and doesn’t take advantage of their kindness (eg. many cats are known to push things off tables. munkustrap would never) oh also the baby has pulled on munku’s tail once but he doesn’t hold it against her

mr. mistoffelees: we can actually glean some things about his family from his song and the behind the scenes. first of all, laurie davidson says misto is owned by a magician, who uses misto as a helper during magic tricks. that is to say, he pulls misto out of his hat. this is delightful and i hold to this concept too. from his song we know at least two things: one lyric says “the family” and thats plural so there’s more than just a magician, who i imagine is a guy, by the way. so he gets a wife. i don’t see them having kids. the other thing we know from his song is that misto sleeps by the fire..... though sometimes he is on the roof, making a ruckus, apparently. misto’s owners are sometimes annoyed but overall fond of their kitties antics. since misto emulates his owner’s magic-ness, it stands to reason that this guy is a guy worthy of being emulated. therefore: decent and nice. concept: misto sees his owner doing magic tricks and being lovey dovey with his wife and is basically like “god i wish that was me”. i also imagine they give misto a decent amount of toys, like a jingly mouse, a ball of yarn, etc. this was partially an attempt to get misto to stop playing with forks and the man of the house’s magician doodads... it didn’t wooork~ yes, im still thinking of 2019 misto, just because he’s anxious, doesn’t mean he can’t be a silly little scamp too. he’s gotta practice his magic!

rum tum tugger: his owner is a sweet lady who adores her kitty so very much and loads him with praise. basically she’s largely responsible for tugger’s,,, High Self Esteem. she talks to him in baby talk a lot. she’s a cat enthusiast and has even entered tugger in some pet shows. she’s good natured enough but her house smells funny. she spoils tugger and will allow him to behave however way he pleases. according to tugger’s song, she sews. he jumps on her lap, throwing her off her task, and she sighs fondly and says “oh, what am i going to do with you?”. nothing. because she wuvs her pwecious widdle kitty. basically, tugger owns her

victoria: she was given to a little girl as a christmas present and what we see at the start of the movie is her being chucked away because the girl and the parents got bored of her once she reached maturity. so basically they’re fickle bastards who weren’t ready for cat ownership

mungojerrie & rumpleteazer: ohhhh boy, so i said tugger was spoilt but these two. these two! their owners are rich. the details of this family are unclear in my head but at the very least theres a middle aged couple who hate the way these cats behave but choose to tolerate it, and a younger stupid woman who ignores their shenanigans and says “they don’t know what they’re doing” (said whilst they grin mischievously). mungo and rumple’s behaviour is put up with because they’re show cats who are worth a lot of money. once in a while they’ll do a show and then the rest of the time these two are Chaos. as i said, their family is the one i’m least clear about, like how many people live here, how everybody is related, but im picturing a somewhat large rich family (like 3 generations in one house and theres a few bratty kids about) and they’re not very nice people. they’re snobby and unkind. any goodness the chaos twins have was given to them by the other jellicle cats, not their owners. oh this household also employs several maids, who have to put up with so much shit, lord

skimbleshanks: skimble has no one Owner in a traditional sense, he is beloved by the people who work at the local railway station. the drivers, the guards, the station master, the station master’s daughters who are 6 and 8. skimble does and doesn’t belong to all of these people. the train people adore skimble and literally will not start the train without him, which is canon. i picture the driver as being really burly, to juxtapose how cooey he gets over this orange kitty. they let him roam the train as he pleases, and honk the train horn, drink scotch and they always give him Human Food. and in return skimble is infallibly loyal and has amazing work ethic. i mean, considering he’s a cat... anyways everybody loves skimbleshanks

and for the sake of the story working, these owners are either ignorant that their cats are getting out or letting them free roam. twas a different time
