A collection of Steven Universe comic signatures from this past week.

I’m down to single digit stock here if anyone in still interested in their own signed comics!

God, okay. I have no idea if this hyper-specific genre of story/trope exists but I need more of it so I'm sending out a general message here:

Does anyone know if there are any stories/fanfics/comics/anything that has a format of the Centipeetle Drawing Scene from Steven Universe?

The idea of two beings communicating, however they can, despite the vast gulf in languages? That you might never even be able to cross that gap because of the differences in your vocal chords? It hits so hard for me and scratches an extremely specific itch in my brain

The closest examples that I can use are the book "Project Hail Mary" and the game "Chants of Sennar." But Chants of Sennaar puts the translation as a type of puzzle, and half of Project Hail Mary are the flashback scenes back on earth. Both are good examples (especially Hail Mary), but I want the communication itself between two characters to be the central aspect of that story

You know what *does* scratch that itch for me?

The fucking Vending Machine Isekai

The main character only has like, four voice lines it can say as a vending machine. But through trial and error, he is able to communicate with those around him, even detailing strategies in battle, like *using fucking mentos and pepsi to defeat a fire monster.*

And I cannot emphasize enough that I don't really like this show -- I stopped around episode six. But that process of deduction and communication is something hyper-specific that is something I absolutely love!

Like, okay. Let's take Splatoon for example: a human gets isekai'd into the Splatoon world, but there is no auto-translator that either side can use to communicate.

How do the Inkfish deduce that the human understands them, is aware of their culture? Hum the melody of the Calamari Inkantation.

How can you communicate different ideas that are too vague for charades? Through drawing, like the Steven Universe episode.

Use instruments and music chords to begin the basics of translating alphabets, stop motion with figurines to give a play-by-play of events, games to build camaraderie. I just, I *need* more stories like this, where communication is the entire point, I love it so so much!

So, if there's anything like what I'm describing here, even in fanfic, please share with me. I need to experience more of these stories and more need to exist

⚠️ Loud AF audio, adjust volume

Stemmed from this post, see the consequences of what's to come if Lil Quartz isn't monitored at a Halloween party.

Audio's from the "many screams of sr pelo", you may want to lower the volume when listening to him. >_>

So apparently I also never posted this.

Before they revealed Centipeetle's true form; I had this idea in my head based on the silhouette that appeared for like 2 seconds.

I'm sorry but my chrysoprase is cooler than nephrite. it has a better ass!
