So since Peach has gone through a lot of trauma here's her being comforted up by Tippi and the Pixls when they noticed that something was bothering her. (Which is the loops and stuff but she doesn't tell them that.)

This is during one of the quests in this au. Pixl Quest! Haven't really figured out how it goes but...I'll get to it!

I love the little Pixls in Super Paper Mario so they get their own quest!

Love these little guys!

[sarahvilelaheart]

This is an art of Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Bowser, Dimentio and the Pixls (Tippi, Thoreau, Boomer, Slim, Thudley, Carrie, Fleep, Cudge, Dottie, Barry, Dashell, Piccolo and Tiptron) celebrating the 17th anniversary of the release of the game Super Paper Mario. So… Happy 17th anniversary, Super Paper Mario! 🥳 And enjoy this special drawing! 🙂

[theonewithtophat]

Mind sharing some Ezio, Ziio, Shay and Edward Hcs?

Sofia and Claudia got along like sisters (idk I think this might actually be canon).

Ezio encouraged Flavia to be spirited and curious, and sees himself in her and the way she takes care of Marcello. If Ezio had lived to see her to adulthood, he would have been protective but let her choose her own husband.

Ezio wanted to keep his Assassin activities a secret from his children. After he died, Claudia took them in and trained them herself the way their Uncle Mario did for them.

Ziio and Oiá:ner's interactions became stilted after the birth of Ratohnhaké:ton. There was no doubt that the love was there, but Oiá:ner could not quite look at her the same again, and she had to busy herself with finding someone else to groom as successor. They were finally warming up to each other again just a year or so before Ziio died.

Oiá:ner put full trust into Ratohnhaké:ton and his decision-making going forward because she didn't want to drive a wedge between herself and her grandson the way she did with Ziio. And it was the hardest thing she ever had to do.

Modern-day Ziio would have been a leader in the stand-offs against the Canadian government and localities like the Kanehsatà:ke Resistance, which her voice actor Tiio Horn was actually in. My headcanon Ziio has a lot of Tiio Horn's traits, mostly because Tiio Horn's sass that I see in her social media comes through a lot in her voice acting for Ziio.

Ratohnhaké:ton's a BEAST at lacrosse. Man moves like WATER.

Shay died peacefully in a manner similar to Ezio's -- in a garden, watching his family.

Shay most definitely was the black sheep amongst the Templars -- not just because a traitor gets no trust from any side, but because he's Irish and many other Templars were Englishmen who were racist against him. Adéwalé called him Haytham's hunting dog, but the Templars thought the same of him.

Because of this, Shay was that high-achieving Templar the others resented, because they hated the idea of being outdone by someone they felt was lesser. They kept their distance from each other, and his friends in the Order were kept in a tight circle -- Jack Weeks, Gist, and Haytham.

That's also why Cudgel was so fiercely proud of his grandfather later on too -- despite the racism, he was more Templar than any of them.

Also, Lil Cudge seems to me like that kind of guy who in modern day would insist that the Irish were slaves. He seems to me like someone who's very loyal, but but blindly so, and someone who doesn't question tradition.

Edward wanted to raise Haytham as English as possible, but he'd occasionally slip up and curse in Welsh at times. Haytham would grow up with only vague memories of the Welsh part of his heritage.

Edward was a rambunctious lil youngster who didn't need any dogs to herd the sheep. The wolves were scared of HIM lol.

Edward's relationship with Jenny haunts my dreams. What happened in the years between her and Haytham's birth. The people need to know.

I wrote a whole other word vomit post expressing my guess that he didn't want her to get involved in the Assassin world because he wanted to protect his last memory of Caroline. He believed in being honest with your child, so she knew everything about his activities. But given that Caroline had already been disowned because of him and even now that he was a new money gentleman, he was a social pariah because of his pirate past, he wanted Jenny to live a noblewoman's life -- marry a man of good social standing and be a good wife. And although she protested, he always thought he knew what was best for her.

If Jenny knew about her brother's child and ever met him, she honestly would've adored him. Such a polite, well-loved young man. She would've been relieved that he was raised right by his mother's side, away from the Kenway drama. Thank God all he had in common with her side of the family was blood, but if she could have chosen to be blood with any remaining relative of hers, it would have been him.

[misschimotosuwa-blog]

Hahaha can't believe I never made Cudge say that til now 🤣

[smallmariofindings]

As is common practice in many video games, Mario's model in Super Paper Mario includes all the parts used for his model at any time in the game, including the optional parts - with the optional parts simply not being rendered when they are not needed (as opposed to the alternative approach, where the optional parts are separate objects loaded on demand).

Note the presence of the Floro Sprout, the Helmet, and Mario's tears, which are only visible during specific animations. Interestingly, the model includes a giant hammer, which is never used in-game. While Mario does use a hammer whenever he uses the Pixl Cudge, that hammer is much smaller and has slightly different proportions to the giant hammer.

Whumptober Salvage: Episode 1

I obviously did not do Whumptober this year as my October schedule was INSANE. Now that I have a good percentage of my life back, I want to make up for this, as I have some cool ideas and I need the challenge of writing on a schedule.

I can't guarantee that I can produce something every day, but I'm damn well going to try. Caveat that these shorts (ha, "shorts," they said, laughing) will be less polished than my usual work (much less edited, if at all), as I'm using this as an exercise to get my writing back in shape before tackling my larger projects.

Today's theme: Forced to Choose

Today's author commentary: This was supposed to be a short. It ended up just over 2,000 words.

Warnings: Major character death

~~~~~~~~~~~

Bleck is dead.

They’re out of options, out of time. The last gambit with the Pure Hearts was just enough to break through Super Dimentio’s shield, to make him vulnerable to attack. (It, not him, Mario reminds himself as he bounds forward, executing a messy somersault that delivers him a mere breath from the angry slam of a gargantuan boot that would see him flattened in an instant). 

It was a bizarre piece of irony that the loyalty of Bleck’s minions could resurrect the Pure Hearts for one last encore performance, that the same people who attempted multiple times to kill Mario and his friends, the ones who ushered in the end of all worlds without a second thought, the ones who corrupted his little brother - 

If they live through this, they’ll get no thanks from his mouth.

But that’s a thought for later, for when the dust had settled and the worlds remained standing. (The worlds would remain standing. Mario won’t let it end any other way).

Mario sprints towards a rectangular pillar, kick stepping his way to the top. He’s certain to plant a foot directly into the grotesque likeness of Dimentio’s smiling mask as he clambers upwards, landing on the narrow platform just in time to hit the decks as another one of Super Dimentio’s missiles flies over his head. 

Too close, he thinks, shoving himself upright on trembling legs.  

They need to end this now. Peach is waving her parasol, trying to attract the attention of the enormous creature as Bowser booms from behind, ricocheting from platform to platform until he’s near enough to unleash a torrid stream of fire aimed at the back of Super Dimentio’s head. 

It’s enough to send the creature staggering, if that’s what the spastic, jutting movements of the sickly elongated neck could be called. But Bowser’s retreat is too sluggish, the Koopa not quick enough to avoid the retaliatory swing of an iron foot to the gut that sends him hurtling across the blank room, Bowser crashing into the far wall with a thunderous roar.

There’s no time to think, the small opening possibly their last hope of survival. Mario acts on years of well-honed instinct as he summons Carrie and Cudge in quick succession, riding the little boxy platform straight into Super Dimentio’s face, rearing back with Cudge to deliver a devastating blow to the bridge of the gigantic monster’s nose.

The resulting shriek is like a thousand sharpened nails being drawn down a chalkboard, a screeching static that melts with the creature in real time, feet dissolving into bubbling, swirling puddles of acid, legs less collapsing than imploding, a house of skeletal cards upended, each joint falling to the ground with a hollow bounce. 

A line of tiny, fire breathing molecules eat their way up two-toned smock and white ruffles, leaving a disembodied neck and head to float freely over the empty floor for a long second before the creature’s head comes smashing down to earth with a horrid splat, the force of the collision cracking the monster’s jaw in two, the upper portion of the head now unhinged from its base, the gaping maw open at a wide, unnatural angle.

Mario slides to the edge of a crumbling platform, the echoes of Dimentio’s mask now wiped from the edifice. Gingerly, he hops to the floor, limping through the smoke-shrouded scene to join the Princess and Bowser, who are keeping a safe distance from the now-malformed mockery of his brother’s face.

“Is…is it over?” Peach asks, wheezy. She puts a hand on Mario’s shoulder. He’s not certain if it’s a gesture of comfort or evidence of the toll the battle has taken on her. “Did we -”

“Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha.”

Terrors seizes in Mario’s chest as the decapitated head of his brother laughs, the unhinged jaw popping and creaking with each pulsating syllable. Peach’s grip tightens on Mario’s shoulder, her fingers digging into sore, bruised flesh as she lets out a horrified gasp. Behind him, Mario can feel the heat rising from Bowser’s fiery exhalations, the Koopa grinding his fangs together as he lets loose a dangerous, guttural growl.

“You think this is the end?” Dimentio’s voice bounces off every surface of the high-ceilinged room in a nightmarish symphony of sing-song mockery. “This isn’t finished. The Count is dead. And there is only one means of escape.”

The jaw detaches even further, the upper piece of the head bending back with a tortured squeal of viscera and metal. There’s a low rumbling, the earth beginning to tremble beneath Mario’s feet. All at once, the head of Super Dimentio lets out a rusted, phlegmatic bark that seems to emanate from the invisible depths of a diseased chest, and with it, expels a soft, human-like object in a spray of gooey, greenish fluid.

Mario’s heart stops in his chest. “Luigi,” he whispers, breaking free of Peach’s iron grip to sprint towards the prone form of his brother. 

Please be alive. You have to be alive. Oh my God, please. I’ll do anything. 

Relief floods past spiky adrenaline as Luigi begins to stir, Mario covering the last distance between the two of them by sliding on his knees across the smooth, marble floors, coming to rest at his brother’s side. 

“Luigi?” He’s pawing at his brother’s chest, his legs, his face, Mario doesn’t know what he’s looking for or what he's even doing aside from trying to account for all the little bits and pieces that make up his brother, to hold Luigi together by sheer force of will, as if he were a broken vase just waiting to fall to apart.

“Mario?” His brother’s grey-green eyes focus on his own, the dreamy, half-hypnotized look now melted away in favor of sharpened anxiety. Luigi grabs Mario’s hands in his own, using his brother to leverage himself up to a sitting position. 

“Mario, what happened? Where are we, why am I - “

The words die in Luigi’s throat as his gaze lands on his own bloated, distorted image, jaw jackknifed away from the upper part of his skull, blackened moustache now seeping with a gooey phlegm streaked with crimson, the wide, unblinking eyes criss-crossed in impossible directions. 

The ground trembles again, this time with enough violence to send a set of pillars toppling into a pile of broken concrete, the linear shapes and angles of Bleck’s castle seeping trails of pustulent white down the dark walls of the chamber. 

“Oh my God,” Luigi rasps, shuddering.

“Ciao, Luigi,” the bodiless voice of Dimentio greets.

Luigi squeezes his eyes shut, grabbing at the sides of his head with both hands. “No. No, no, no. This can’t be real. It didn’t happen. None of it happened. You can’t be real!” he screams, bringing down a shower of debris from the cracked ceiling. 

“Careful, mon ami,” Dimentio chides with a small chuckle. “This reality seems to be contingent on your mood.”

Mario wraps a protective arm around his little brother. “It’s over, Dimentio. You lost.”

“Is it, though?” The mouth of the monster has stopped moving, frozen in a gaping expression of demented awe. Only the eyes remain animated, dark, swirling irises pinballing off the walls of jaundiced sclera in a chaotic polyrhythm. 

“One last surprise! Ah ha ha ha ha. I may be dead but the Chaos Heart is not. A piece of it lives on, and while it does, nothing can stop the end of all worlds!”

A thunderous crackle booms from outside the castle, the room, reality itself teetering to the side as chunks of marble and plaster cascade to the floor, revealing an open wound in the ceiling through which the violet eye of the Void swirls, tempestuous.  

Luigi grips his brother’s shoulders, his voice high with panic. “Mario, what are we going to do?” 

“We’re going to stop this, Luigi,” Mario grits. “Right here. Right now.” He turns towards the head of Super Dimentio. Black skin is peeling from its cheeks, an ear dangling to the side by a single string of flesh. “Alright you bastard. You’re obviously done for. Where’s the last part of the Chaos Heart?”

“Where else?” Dimentio laughs, the teeth of the monster now crumbling to dust one by one. “Inside its perfect vessel. Just as it was foretold in the Dark Prognosticus.” 

Reality phases in and out of a sickening double, a photographic negative overlaid with a collapsing present. Peach and Bowser scramble over to join Mario and his brother, Bowser shielding the brothers from the worst of the falling detritus with his shell, Peach unfurling her parasol, situating it as best she can over both her and Bowser’s forms.

“Whatever it is, Red,” he growls, “we gotta do it fast.”

Mario nods. “What’s the vessel?” he yells over the rising clangor, pushing his brother further into Bowser’s protective embrace. 

“You mean who is the vessel,” Dimentio cackles through half a disintegrating face. “It’s quite simple. Destroy the man in green.”

The man in…

Denial tears through Mario’s chest.

“Liar!” he screams, jumping to his feet, oblivious to the hailstorm of matter pelting his body. “You’re a fucking liar!”

There’s no answer to be had, the last physical remnants of Dimentio carried off by the whirling Void, the space the head had occupied now a congealed puddle of tarry emerald. 

“Shit!” Mario yells, leaping out of the way of a massive piece of scaffolding. Something grabs at the straps of his overalls, pulling him under one of the last standing arches, bright, fuchsia lightning setting the room afire with a violent crackle.

“Lou, what are you doing?” Mario demands, shoving his brother further into the shadowy alcove. “You could have been killed!”

His brother is silent, gaze fixed on the ashen floor. Outside, the tumult crescendos to a booming, percussive explosion, rattling the very foundations of the castle. Small wisps of violet are beginning to reach down from the heavens, each eddy scraping a few more atoms of reality with it.

Luigi locks eyes with his brother, biting his lip.

“Mario - “

“No.” He knows what his brother is about to say. What he’s going to ask Mario to do. He grabs his brother by the back of the neck, pushing their foreheads together. “Don’t you dare. Don’t you fucking dare.”

“Mario.” His brother cups either side of his face, a movement so gentle Mario thinks he might cry. “I remember it all. Everything. Let me - “ Luigi’s voice cracks. “I need to make it right.”

Something awful crawls up Mario’s throat, a tight, squeezing thing wrapping vice-like fingers round his vocal cords.

“It wasn’t your fault, Lou,” he manages to force out through a tangle of emotion. 

Luigi gives a small sob. “I still did it, though.”

A low moan sounds from the sky, a deep, bass drone not voiced by any creature of this existence, as if it were the fundamental tone of all of reality.

Mario slides his face into the crook of his brother’s shoulder. “I just got you back,” he croaks, wet. “I can’t - I can’t - “

“You can’t let the world end because of me,” Luigi says, petting the back of his brother’s head before gently guiding Mario to meet him eye to eye.

“Let me be the hero for once.” Luigi gives a watery smile. “I’ve got this one,” he says, giving Mario’s cheek a fond pat before turning to walk into the maelstrom. 

Mario stands frozen as he watches his brother walk away, his thoughts and emotions encased in a sticky amber, his body either unwilling or unable to put a stop to what is happening. As his brother reaches the edge of the threshold between safety and annihilation, he pauses to look over his shoulder. 

“I love you, bro,” Luigi says. 

All Mario can do is give a simple wave back. 

It will have to be enough. 

Luigi huffs out a small laugh, waving back in kind. “Ciao, Mario.”

His brother disappears into the rainbow-hued whirlwind, the world coalescing into a single point of darkness.

Mario franchise > multiple characters throughout the video games

Inanimate Object Characters List | Entry: 51

I have played plenty of Mario games (far from all, but I'm a not-so-often-gaming gamer in general) and I've been a huge fan of some of them, so naturally, I would not forget about the eligible characters from the Mario universe. However, since it is a franchise so immense, I doubt if I have even come across all of these characters. Thus, I will put all characters I know in this list and add new ones if I find them.

Please notify me if you find a character is/characters are misses.

Also, I'm skipping food characters, so Goomba etcetera don't count.

And to save space, I'm not adding the video games' cover images.

Now let's begin.

REOCCURING ENEMIES:

Characters: Bullet Bill, Torpedo Ted, Banzai Bill, Chain Chomp

The Bullet Bill family (bullets) and Chain Chomp (wrecking ball) are definitely eligible for this list. Funny thing is that I actually had Bullet Bill as one of my most favourite Mario enemies before I actively realized it was, once again, an object. It may have been at that point that I concluded that it's not even a conscious preference. Haha.

HONOURABLE MENTIONS:

Characters: Thwomp, Whomp, Wallop, Walleye

These are guys made out of stone, so they are not actual objects, but they are sentient regularly inanimate "things", so I'm adding them.

The mighty Whomp King (with the design he got in Super Mario Galaxy 2) was my favourite among these. I once started writing a story about him (may still finish that one day). Also, Walleye is cute.

--

Now we go to the next set of eligible Mario characters, which are those that occur less often or solely in one video game. For this post, I went with the European release dates.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (1996)

Character: Exor

Super Mario 64 (1997)

Character: Mad Piano

Super Paper Mario (2007)

Characters: Boomer (bomb), Thudley (weight), Fleep (window shade), Cudge (hammer), Picolo (music note), Sproing-Oing (slinky, I think, but it also looks like a hamburger - man's got seeds on his face), Mister I (eyeball) King Sammer (crown), Dorguy the First (door), Tileoids (tiles)

There's two more variation of Sproing-Oing [Boing-Oing, Zoing-Oing, Dark Sproing-Oing], one more variation of Mister I [Red I] and two more guardian doors [Dorguy the Second, Dorguy the Third].

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time (2006)

Character: Stuffwell

Paper Mario: Sticker Star (2012)

Character: Kersti

Paper Mario: Color Splash (2016)

Character: Huey

Super Mario Odyssey (2017)

Characters: Cappy, Volbonans

Cappy can transform in different types of headwear. Volbonans come in different sizes [2] and colours [5].

Paper Mario: Origami King (2020)

Sounds familiar? Yes, that's right!

I already did this one before, because they deserved a seperate post.

Characters: The Legion of Stationary [Jean-Pierre Colored Pencils the 12th, Hole Punch, Rubber Band, Scissors, Stapler, Tape]

[gamingstar26]

Ok so I was messing around with somethings about the super dimentio fight. And you know how if you use peach’s parasol and after a while the 8 bit Luigi’s show up. I found another way to do it: use slim and just wait a bit. Then move again and they spawn. I had this theory for a while but I never tried it until now. Also found out if you use cudge on the platforms they damage super dimentio.

Ok so here’s the footage:

Also found a strange thing that happens when you use slim, for some reason his hand after attacking just doesn’t retract back until you move again, idk why that happens, but it does.

[dappledpaintbrush]

I’m curious who’s yalls favorite pixl but it’s based off like. emotional attachment. rather than how useful they are if that makes sense

[gefdreamsofthesea]

This is your occasional reminder that the RCC is not your friend even if Francis pisses off conservatives sometimes.

Secret Places

Hi there!

Now I'll show you some of the secret places from the entire game. Let's do it! 

Flipside floor B1, if we turn to 3D, we found a catch card.

Filpside, in the 1st Floor Outskirts, we get into the pipe and the first hole, wa can found two different catch cards.

In the Flipside 3rd Floor Outskirts, if we use Piccolo near the coloured block, it reaveals another catch card.

In the same place, we use Tippi to uncover a path of invisible Blocks leading to a chest which contains the cooking disk, with new recipes. 

In Flipside B1, near the second hear pilar, we destroy the block and pass through 3D in a hallfway besides it.

In a large chest after activating two separate ! Switches: first of all the one in Flopside B2 Outskirts (near of the Pit of 100 trials), which can only be revealed by using Cudge to destroy the yellow block hiding it; and lastly the one in Flipside B2 Outskirts, we found an HP Plus!

Now, on Flopside, we jump with Luigi the place of the Pit of 100 trials, turn into 3d, in the area showed in the pic: we just jump and we can found a catch card.

In the seventh pilar, in the exactly place in the pic, turn into 3D we go to the bottom and fall on the left side, just behind the Heart Pillar, there is a chest and a catch card. To exit we just use Luigi again and go to 3D

In the same place as Flipside, we go to B2 outskirts in Flopside, we found a Power Plus.

In that area if we flip to 3D we found coins and inside the pipe turn into 3D we found more coins.

And, finally, if we turn 3D before hit the Star Block, we can find another catch card.

In Mount Lineland, turn into 3Din that area showed in the pic we found another catch card.

And behind Green's bed, we found another catch card.

In the area showed in the pic, near the buzzy beetles, turn into 3D we found another catch card.

Besides, in the same area, but now behind the exit pipe in 3D near exactly 17 visible coins, accessible via the first pipe underground, we can find a Catch Card SP.

In world 4-2, next to the statue, what's showed in the gif, we can get an Ultra Shroom Shake.

In chapter 5-1, in this wipe, we found inside a chest with one more catch card.

Now, in chapter 5-2, inside the volcan, if turn 3D we found many coins.

In Chapter 8-4, in a chest at the southeast corridor near a few Goombas and red Koopa Troopas, which is also right in front of a door to the next room, we can find a shooting star.

In a chest at the southwest corridor near three Pink Fuzzies, which is also on the exact opposite end of the exit located at the northeast corridor, is located a Super Shroom Shake.

In a chest behind of the corridor near three Shlorps, we can find an Ultra Shroom Shake.

And those were some secret places in the game. I didn't put some because they were too obvious to find, so I only put the ones I considered important. I hope this helps you complete the game 100%.This is where I say goodbye.

ciao!

Super Paper Mario Pixls (Tickle versions)

Not enough SPM tickles, and for what there is, it's focusing on the obvious fan favorites. The Pixls received basically no characterization, but I'm not about to just forget them. Here are some concepts for tickle themed versions of the Pixls, and how they could help out lees and lers.

Tippi (if you'd count them) - Great at identifying hidden tickle spots. Given their character during their time as a pixl, they don't seem to be the most open to others initially, and will probably be the one to call out the ler if they're being too rough on their lee.

Thoreau - Literally a hand, perfect gold standard tickler.

Boomer - Tickle bomb, whose insides are filled with fuzz and fluff.

Slim - Loves excitement and thrill seeking, can see the appeal in harder tickles.

Thudley - Canonically loves girth, and probably enjoys kissing and worshiping tummies.

Carrie - Picks up lees and carries them back to the ler, holding up them up so the ler can get a good view of all the tickle spots.

Fleep - Uncovers hidden goodies, in this case your belly by rolling up your shirt, or your feet by slipping off your socks.

Cudge - Ok here me out, what if... what if instead of a hammer, it was an electric toothbrush, IDK.

Dottie - Very gentle, they prefer light traces.

Barry - Spikes are replaced with hairbrush bristles.

Dashell - Boosts the lers reaction speed, so they're always just a little bit faster than the lees blocking hands.

Piccolo - Sings sweet teases and compliments to the lee.

--- BONUS ---

Tiptron - Similar to Tippi, they identify tickle spots, but can also read into the lee's reaction in a more calculated way, bringing a kind of unique anxiousness that only machines can offer.

Unnamed ladder pixl - It was most likely going to be used for the flipping ability, but their design reminds me of a pair of stocks, so they'll help bind lees. -

Breadward - SNACKS, you can't have a tickle session on an empty stomach.
