#don’t make me LAFF

[brazilnt]

this is killing me bc chelsea really are nuffin😭

[droloismo]

he’s a bit insane today 😭

[uservernon]

to that anon:

I need everyone to see what’s really going on here because I’m not going to let this slide quietly. Shame on you. Shame on every single person on that list who thought it was okay to gang up on me and bully me into taking down my post. I spoke up about the harmful behavior that’s been poisoning this fandom, and instead of reflecting on that, you all decided to prove my point by attacking me. You think you’ve silenced me, but all you’ve done is show everyone exactly what you’re made of.

I came to this community to share my love for Seventeen, just like everyone else, but it’s become clear that some people here are more interested in creating drama and tearing others down than in supporting the boys. The way you and your so-called friends banded together to bully me into silence is exactly the kind of toxic behavior that’s ruining Caratblr. You’ve shown your true colors, and they’re ugly. What does it say about you that instead of addressing the real issues I brought up, you chose to attack me instead? It says that you don’t care about the truth, and you don’t care about the well-being of this fandom. All you care about is protecting your fragile egos and keeping up this charade of being ‘real fans’ when your actions prove otherwise.

You didn’t just hurt me with your bullying; you hurt the entire community by showing that anyone who dares to speak up about the issues here will be met with hostility and cruelty. You didn’t silence me—you only made me more determined to speak out. You’ve shown everyone watching just how toxic this fandom can be, and that’s on you, not me. You think you’ve won by forcing me to take down my post, but all you’ve done is expose yourselves as the bullies you are. Shame on you for thinking that you could get away with this without anyone noticing. Shame on you for proving every point I made in that post by turning against me in the way that you did.

This isn’t just about me. It’s about every Carat who’s been silenced by people like you, who think they can control the narrative by bullying others into submission. You’ve shown everyone what kind of people you really are, and there’s no coming back from that. Shame on you.

bold of you to say all of this truly but i am gonna point some things out real quick 1) you said you are not "not gonna let this slide quietly" and yet you are on anon AGAIN like you were behind an account made for the sole purpose of calling out a group of people that just have morals and opinions 2) you claimed we bullied you? it's interesting because my friends and i weren't the ones who made a list to target people and to possibly rally others to boycott our content and essentially put a target on our backs.

for the second (and last time i hope) you don't know me personally or you don't know any of my friends and mutuals that you put in your stupid list. you don't get to talk to me like you have it all figured it out when you truly haven't. all i am doing on tumblr right now is my part and sharing information about things going on in the world. you claim to call out "real issues"? please don't make me laugh. i don't know you either but i would assume that the way you are acting is because you are possibly insecure that you don't have a solid belief system and kpop is getting the best of you. us saying we don't like certain svt songs don't exactly affect your life. us saying that svt shouldn't collab with certain people because those said people aren't good and have a history of being awful is not a bad thing... that is called having a brain and having intact morals. me saying we should boycott hybe because of their continuous support and promotion of zionism by employing zionists and letting their artists collab with them is valid especially in our world's current climate. idk if you noticed... there's a genocide going on and people are dying because of this ideology.

i could explain why palestinian fans decided to organize this boycott to begin with but i can see this is useless because you aren't willing to listen. so i'll just say this: stop harassing people because you don't agree with their opinions and you possibly aren't healthily stanning svt. it's not our fault and we are confident about our beliefs and how we support them. you on the other hand may not be. so, i'm just asking you to reflect and leave us alone

Task force 141 dog hybrid AU?

OKAY HEAR ME OUT-

but what if the task force were dog hybrids 🤔

(I think I ate too much chocolate cake when thinking about this-)

Price would definitely be a bulldog hybrid no doubt-

(GIF belongs to the Bored Dog Show)

Aaaa it would be so cute! He’d have this slight underbite like bulldogs normally do with a tooth or two sticking out. Oh god it would be so derpy! He would always try to hide his ears with his bucket hat or beanie and if you find him in a deep sleep (Which is very rare) his tongue pokes out and yes, he runs in his sleep. He doesn’t like being pet (Or at least he makes you think he doesn’t). He’s completely touch starved but never wants to admit to wanting such affection. The only time you get to pet him is in his sleep and when you do he lets out a low groan and starts kicking in his sleep.

Beagle Gaz YESSS!

GIF by: nala-thebeagle

(Okay so I went to my aunts house and she had two cute beagle puppies! And they were the sweetest Damm thing. One was definitely a cuddler but the other one not as much. The other one liked to be pet sometimes but not always and let out a growl if you pet him too much and I guess it kinda reminds me of Gaz?)

So beagle hybrid Gaz’s tail would definitely wag every time he sees you, but he tries his hardest not to show it. He tends to bury things and ‘save them for later’ only for you to find whatever he buried outside weeks or months later and show it to him. Of course he always blames it on Soap to try and make himself look less like a fool, but you know he did it and yes, he hunts rabbits and brings them to you even though there’s no need for that….but he just looks so happy bringing them to you.

look….I don’t wanna be basic but….Scottish Terrier Soap-

GIF by: animals-in-old-films

Scottish terriers are known for their independence, aggression, loudness, and even playfulness and that checks all the boxes for Soap also the fact that they are short like Soap-

Soap is….very loud to say the least. Whenever someone new comes by or someone he doesn’t like he kinda just starts yelling (Mostly swears) at them in hopes his yelling will scare them off and if he sees you pull up he immediately goes to the door or window and starts yelling out for you awhile the others try to stop him from completely tackling you.

Soap: *Bangs on the window* “Y/n tis me-soap! keek! loook at meeee!-wait how come urr ye traivelin awa'?! come back-“

Blood Hound Ghost

GIF by: Laff

This might be a strange one but I think blood hound hybrid Ghost works. Ghost’s father hunted animals and even tormented Ghost with them. With this in mind I thought a tracker doggo should do the trick. All Ghost needs is to find you once and there’s no where you could hide from him. His smell is impeccable but also very sensitive to certain smells. Yes he has the long floppy bloodhound ears but like Price he tries his dammest to hide them and same with his tail. He hates it when anyone touches or attempts to pet him. He’s a light sleeper so even tiniest change in air movement sets him off. The most affection you ever got from him was a gently brush of his hands against yours, almost wanting to hold your hand before pulling away again. Poor Ghost :(

[ducktracy]

I’ve been listening to Jim Cummings’ podcast and he pointed out that a lot of VAs don’t like how WB refuses to commit to a regular full time cast for the Looney Tunes unlike Disney where if you’re cast as one of Mickey and Friends you basically have a guaranteed gig for life barring some exceptions (Mickey having a different VA for the Paul Rudish Mickey cartoons and the Chip ‘n Dale movie)

I saw a theory somewhere that WB doesn’t want another Mel Blanc - because they don’t want another VA with enough star power to demand higher wages. And I think third theory has some merit especially since Mel was training his son Noel to be his successor and apart from a handful of “Tiny Toons” episodes he never took his dad’s place

@digamma-f-wau asked: I'm not sure how true this is, but one thing I've heard relating to the post-Mel Looney Tunes voice actors is that all of the regular VAs have to reaudition for each new project, which results in the VAs varying from project to project; see how Bugs Bunny's VA often oscillated between Jeff Bergman, Greg Burson, Billy West, and Joe Alaskey. Heck, the fact that Bergen nigh-consistently lands the role as Porky is actually pretty unusual.

(context)

YEAH, i was just going to parrot what Digamma said here (thanks and hi Digamma!!) i forget where i've heard it (likely the pig himself) but i know Bob Bergen for instance had to/still has to reaudition--his audition for the original Space Jam was reading Hamlet's soliloquy in Porky's voice which i would've PAID to hear. i don't really have much to add on here other than i do agree it's pretty ridiculous, but i guess makes for interesting history! i was just made aware of this the other day, i've heard Billy West do Bugs, Elmer (and i wish he'd do him more... best Fudd past Arthur Q Bryan, bar none), and Porky, but Billy West DAFFY is a very new one to me

this does also make me think about how Joe Alaskey voiced Bugs and Daffy in the Laff Riot pilot... i wish they kept him :') Jeff Bergman does a pretty solid Bugs, at times a bit too bored sounding for my tastes but i understand the consistency in casting him. not a very big fan of his Daffy, though i was impressed hearing his voice for the duck in some of his stuff for the '90s. feel like some 2010s productions had issues with people like Bergman and Dee Bradley Baker (WHO I LOVE. and i actually really love his Daffy in a twisted way. i love his Daffy as a fan of SpongeBob who has heard and CONTINUES TO HEAR his voice in like, every third incidental on the show, and i hear an amalgam of those incidentals of his voice for Daffy--his duck is great if you're a fan of Baker himself as an actor, but maybe not so much on the merits of a specifically Daffy voice) whose voices for the duck kinda sound like "just some guy with shades of a lisp".

this also just made me remember that Rob Paulsen voiced Porky in the first episode of Animaniacs which is... a choice. the refusal for consistency is very odd and puzzling, but it does make fascinating history

[octahyde]

Do you have any original characters for TWST?

(As a preface I do have another OC I ship with Chenya, Beau Rhodes, but… I haven’t done much with him besides conceptualizing him. Maybe I should do more since I don’t talk about it enough but TreyRid really really is my romantic canonxcanon TWST OTP and I love it desperately even if I never talk about it. I’ve also been fucking around lately with middle freak Ortho having a form he can use on the surface but ehhh that’s not really an OC thing.)

Ok here it is… The #yumeshit lore post. I actually wanna start getting into like the yume community on BlueSky or something because it has a lot more male yumes than tumb (or rather twit does but my main is a permalocked personal and they’re all slowly but surely jumping ship to BlueSky LMAO), so I might as well explain The Lore in detail. 

As a preface I spend a LOT more time thinking about them when they’re older, because 1) self actualization and 2) why would I EVER want to willingly think about being a teenager again. I literally describe high school as “a haze of undiagnosed mental illness, and also drama club”. no thanx. It’s just not like… too lore noteworthy vs the stuff that actually happens in canon lol.  Here’s what they look like as adults. I’ve mentioned working on a Shrouds piece that took 2 months I finally finished last week, and this is it:

(Side note- along with being a tgirl I hc Idia is a double below the knee amputee after the incident that killed Ortho)

also feel like I should say… Trix’s views on Rook don’t reflect mine LMAO. I have mixed feelings on Rook, but overall my feelings lean positive towards him. He’s a total freak and it’s funny as fuck and I love it. So if you like him don’t try to take the dynamic too personally, it’s the way it is for a laff more than anything.

Beatrice “Trixie” “Trix” Hart is a catch all self insert of mine; mostly for platonic yume. (She was made as a self insert assistant for Klavier Gavin, hence the name, and is also platonic with syl(gags) sylv(throws up in my mouth a little) Sylvain Jose Gautier. If you wanna know about those you can ask ig, I don’t have a ref for 3H Beatrice but I did draw AA Trixie when I came up with her.) She started out as a girl (and I still view her as such in those universes) but for TWST he’s specifically a guy because. Well. This game made me realize I was a transhet man and especially yume helped me sort that out along with being st4t exclusive LOL

Trix is a Pomefiore second year bnuuy beastman from the Shaftlands, Class C (same class as Azul and Jamil). It just kind of really conveniently worked out that my sonas usually have upright brown bnuuy years like the Snow White bunnies and I’m so artistic Pomefiore was the only dorm that makes sense LOL. His Book 7 cameo on Rook’s shelf…

He’s in Film Research Club, and is unique because he joined specifically for crew work, not acting. He’s very extroverted in club and with people he’s close to, but he can be surprisingly introverted when he’s not comfortable. (Ambivert moment). He specializes in practical magic with his sewing and art, and Hates PE. (He likes flying, though.)

His unique magic is My Sweet Heart, which lets him see memories and emotions from people if he grasps their right hand and puts his hand over their heart. 

Caycay is his Number One BFF. I don’t know how they met his first year, but it was basically an immediate click (#trans recognizes #trans. #real #recognizes #real.). Trix walks to class with him every morning, and they frequently go to cafe collabs on the weekend and after class, being sure to leave some of their food out of their magicam posts lest they earn the wrath of their wardens LMAO. If Trix needs someone, Caycay is There for him.

Him and Vil are also VERY close. During his first year, there was an incident that lead to him being roommates with Vil, despite her being a second year and him being first. Trix Really does not like to talk about it, and while Vil would be fine telling people, she doesn’t out of respect for him. She also appreciates someone around club that’s enthusiastic about crew work, and tends to let him lead costume and prop work.

It’s Very clear he has a huge crush on her and that she doesn’t reciprocate. Sometimes she might throw him a bone and give him a little extra praise though LMAO. They do have a very bad fight toward the end of Vil’s third year though, and they go years without talking after. 

His closeness with Vil leaves him some leverage for defending Epel. (#nonpassing recognizes #nonpassing. #real recognizes #real.) It’s mostly in vain, though, but Epel appreciates being looked out for a LOT. Especially because, despite how artistic and fashionable Trix is, his personality is MUCH more down to earth than other Pomefiore students. He’s the biggest advocate for Epel transferring to Savanaclaw his second year and someone who Epel confides a lot into.

Rook’s nickname for him is Monsieur Lapin (Floyd’s is Sea Bunny. Floyd doesn’t come up so I figure I might as well say it heh.). He hates Rook. He thinks Rook is a freak. Especially as a beastman he thinks Rook is super fucking weird. Rook loves Trix’s artwork and his personal journey with beauty and adores him a lot as his beloved underclassman. He knows Trix hates him. He doesn’t care. Trix hates him So Much.

He doesn’t know Ortho much minus the guy who sits next to Caycay’s companion pre Book 6, but once Ortho joins Film Research Trix gets attached REALLY fast. He’s always wanted a younger sibling so he dotes on Ortho constantly, and they rec each other anime and games all the time. (Trix gets him into Professor Layton and he LOVES it.) He learns… a lot about Idia and Ortho’s relationship through this.

Lilia also got asked to tutor him for history once because Trix can’t do homework For Shit and needs help finishing assignments despite his test scores. This backfires because they don’t get anything done ever, but most importantly for The Lore they trade socials and thus Trix is friends with Muscle Red and knows who he is.

Ok. Now the meat of it. The #yumeshit. 

I think it’s probably obvious, but Trix is a nonpassing trans guy. NRC being an all boys school makes him feel safer, but… when he’s not at NRC, even if it’s just in the foothill town, he girlmodes. Being misgendered hurts a lot less that way. (No this is not projecting. Just kidding it is. Please help me.)

As a way of getting respite from this, he VTubes as a magical boy with a voice changer. I don’t have a proper ref but his sona is like the best design I’ve ever done and I’m lowkey mad about it. Anyways. While his interests aren’t really a secret irl it’s always kind of surprising when someone that doesn’t know him finds out he’s into nerdy things, but he gets REALLY invested in the games he’s playing and he has A Lot of info and interpretations to share. And despite his bright design, he gets most excited from horror. He’s not a huge indie by any means but he has a solid following. 

And when Muscle Red sees there’s a well known horror game Gloomurai likes on the docket, well, he HAS to invite them to watch his friend with him! They’ve been telling him how their favorite speedrunner retired and they need someone new to watch, anyways. 

Idia’s very pensive at first, seeing such a bright and sparkly character playing Resident Evil 7, a horror game with a very disgusting atmosphere and themes to match. Probably going to overreact to everything and pretend to be super scared and upset to look cute for views. But he’s watching with Muscle Red, and he wouldn’t make her watch something cringey like that, would he…?

As the game starts up, he starts gushing about what an amazing atmosphere the game has. The entire thing is filthy, and that leads to an overwhelming feeling of dread and disgust- even moreso with the family. His eyes light up when he points out an early scene is referencing The Blair Witch Project.

When it comes to things outside of gameplay itself, he really knows his stuff. Despite how mad him dying for the hundredth time on an extremely easy stealth section makes her, it’s nice to see such a passionate horror otaku. She almost doesn’t mind it because she likes listening to him talk. (Almost.)

Idia starts watching him with Muscle Red regularly. She’s too shy to talk in chat, so she just gives a lot of questionably large donos when he does things. 

He gives a lot of half joking “thank you for funding my doll collection” responses at first, but then says Gloom should chat if they’re comfortable. He’d love to get to know someone who is giving him all this money, and they’re considered a legend in chat for it. She’s nervous (she has no idea why), but she does slowly start chatting and attaching messages to her donos. Soon, she’s a regular in the chat and community. 

So active, in fact, she finds herself with a dm asking for her discord one day. A message follows shortly after about how he appreciates her involvement and wants to get to know her better- now that she’s more talkative, he thinks she’s really funny. 

From there starts a quickly blooming online friendship. They talk whenever they get the chance, though he strictly has to go to bed early or he’ll get chewed out by his housewarden. (A female housewarden…? Is he even forced into the girl dorms at his school?) Idia’s never forthcoming with private info, though, and he seems pretty hesitant with how feminine he is irl to give much past vague detail, either. 

Meanwhile, Trix has to be incredibly careful when lights out and Rook makes the rounds with how late he’s staying up. He is the number one person Trix would rather Die than see his conversation history when confiscating his phone. Gloom’s rude but funny and he loves hearing about X Obscure Game Yaoi Ship. (Sometimes he becomes a casual fan of the series and ship in question- he has been commissioned a LOT to draw her Star Rogue OTP by her.) (He also gets converted to Luisley probably.)

Offline, though, Idia and Trix’s relationship is… awkward. One time during remedial gym lessons when both of them had to run laps in his first year, Trix started complaining about missing club and how he needed to fix his make up, and Idia, being Idia, made a really snide comment about it. Trix snapped at her, and while to him it was just having a bad day, Idia… never really recovered from it. 

In the next year her only exposure was daily convos that were way too peppy for so early in the morning with the extrovert that sat next to her. (I’ve always hced Idia and Caycay sit next to each other in class and straight up forget this isn’t actually canon on a regular basis.) At some point, he started taking curious glances at Idia, which didn’t help at all.

Trix starts getting suspicions about Idia from the few times he does hear her talk, and how similar it sounds. Has he met her before…? But surely he would remember knowing someone as distinctive as Idia, right? 

He has absolutely zero involvement in Book 6 also. With everything going on (because their vice warden ROOK LITERALLY LEFT WITH NO WARNING OR BACKUP PLAN, BECAUSE OF COURSE HE DID, HE IS THE WORST PERSON ALIVE WHO HAS EVER BEEN BORN), him and his roommate end up being the ones to take charge and keep Pomefiore in order. I feel like with Idia yumes in particular Book 6 is a Big Thing because like, Book 6, so I feel like this is important info.

(He IS in Book 7 though. His dream is in between Epel and Rook’s. It’s about being amab :’( He doesn’t take waking up and being back in his actual body well.)

Her and Ortho coming back clear any doubts in his mind: Gloom suddenly leaving on the night of the incident, with zero word since, only to long back on with a “sry, irl stuff happened,” the day after the Shrouds come back? She’s Gloom. Especially getting to know Ortho in club and listening to him talk about her, there is literally no other option. 

He was planning on confronting her about it… then Book 7 happened. Obviously how it ends could change this, but for now once everything’s settled Idia gets a discord notif saying he has to talk to her, and he wants to in person. She tries to say it would be too hard to arrange, only to get a simple response: “Ignihyde Lounge. One hour. You’ll know when you see me.”

She is, unsurprisingly, horrified. How did he figure out? Does he hate her now that he knows she’s a freak? Is he coming to tell her how he can’t believe he befriended someone so pathetic? He’s going to tell everyone all the things she said in confidence. “Lol, you guys thought Shroud was a freak before? Get a load of this!”

Luckily, Trix told Ortho about it. He’s able to coax Idia out and helps her to the dorm lounge, holding her hand along the way. 

And indeed, the one Pomefiore uniform in Ignihyde’s dorm lounge sticks out like a sore thumb. Her heart rate explodes. He’s who she’s been talking to this entire time?! No. No. Absolutely no way. She’s not doing this. She tries to turn and run away, but her brother’s death grip (why did she give him all that strength?) keeps her in place.

He looks around awkwardly as he walks up. “Hey, uh… sorry about that time I snapped at you. Ortho told me it really freaked you out.” Trying to calm her down would hopefully make this easier.. “Do… you want to go somewhere more private? You’re even paler than normal.”

Yes. I do. Alone. And I want to forget this even happened. Unfortunately for her, the look on her bother’s face told her it was a mandatory quest. Defeated, she leads him back to her room. 

He sits uncomfortably stiff on her bed. Idia hides in her chair, turned away from him. He tells her that he doesn’t hate her, that he doesn’t think she’s pathetic. No response. Luckily, he invited Ortho for backup. 

“He really wants to be your friend, Idia! He’s the still same person you’ve been talking to online. And he’s really nice. He’s the one who recommended those games to me!”

Taking a cue on how exhausted she is mentally, Trix gets up and walks to the door. “Just… think about it, okay?”

Think about what? The fact that this person she got close to was actually a loud extrovert who hung around a bunch of normies? That he knows all of the rumors about her? Forget real life- he could go online and tell everyone what a freak Gloomurai was irl, too. 

They don’t talk anywhere for like a week and Trix doesn’t walk to class with Caycay, but then they do talk it out. It’s really hard and REALLY scary for Idia, but she’s able to accept him into her life as a friend. He ends up being a really big pillar of stability for her, and he already knows about her own transness and boymoding which makes him even safer.

And… that’s how they are to the end of her third year! Friends. And really, not looking for anything past that. 

Idia gets a really REALLY nice condo in the Kingdom of Heroes for her internship. (Which she mostly even only uses the upper half of. Smfh) She also gets two cats; a white one, Clear, and a gray one, Ryoji. I’m sure you can guess who they’re named after. Reminder that Idia is canonically a fujoshi. Anyways.

Trix visits during school breaks with Ortho… he also stays in Ortho’s room with him while he’s there. For the most part it’s a lot of just comfy stuff like gaming and watching movies, Ortho taking Trix out to see things and such. Over Winter break while visiting Trix edits one of the Film Research pieces for the culture fair bc he’s club president now… By the time of said fair with 4th years presentations it’s very obvious to like Everyone how they feel. (And they probably know it themselves but try to ignore it because neither feels ready for a relationship).

A really REALLY big point worth noting during this time period (and this is all I’ll say bc I know it’s a difficult topic) is that they see each others cutting scars for the first time. They never really comment on or talk about it, but there’s a wordless understanding and comfort between them afterwards. 

Idia’s staying on the surface for at least a few years to see if researching with Olympos resources can give any new perspectives on blot or her curse. If Trix wants to stay for his internship, there’s plenty of room. She doesn’t admit it, but she really wants him to stay. Unfortunately, though, he’s always been interested in the Queendom of Roses and opts for an editing internship with a publisher there.

It’s more of the same; he visits her more regularly because he’s not limited to NRC’s schedule, and he still streams and she still watches and talks to him. He also adopts Chunky who LIVES FOREVER AND NEVER DIES, EVER. There’s an undeniable closeness between them but neither are still ready to actually act, even if it’s clear they may as well already be together lol. 

During this time she also starts getting him transformation potions to help with dysphoria from STYX while he transitions.

After his internship, he’s able to get a job at the Kingdom of Heroes office of the publisher he interned for. He may or may not have chosen to transfer on purpose- there’s plenty of space there, anyways, so much so he can have his own room big enough to both sleep and work in. Ortho’s out on his own acting internship with Vil’s agency, so for the most part it’s just them and their cats in this huge place lmao. It’s really easy to coexist because there’s space when they need it and Idia’s like entire gamer zone on the upper level when they wanna do stuff together. It works out really well.

There are a whole bunch of headcanons of mine about STYX and the Shrouds and their relationships that I’m not really comfortable going into. However, when they overblotted together, Idia and Ortho did something… really traumatic unrelated to Middle Freak Ortho’s death that Idia blames herself for. She still has regular nightmares about it, and while Trix usually isn’t around from the breakdowns because he’s in his room when they happen, this time he fell asleep upstairs and heard all of it.

He goes in to check on her, and she’s really closed off. He’s eventually able to get her to tell him what happened and her guilt, but… He already knew. Ortho told him years ago when they were all still at NRC. He was waiting for her to tell him on her own terms.

Idia does uhh not take this being hidden from her well! He rationalizes that knowing it and never judging her and standing by her side this entire time means he truly does care and doesn’t blame her. He holds her hand and for the first time says it:

“I love you.”

Idia looks at him wide eyed for a second before turning away.

“You need to leave.”

He’s allowed to stay- she’s not going to just throw him on the street- but he is not allowed upstairs near her. She needs time to process everything. Especially how he hurt her trust. 

Eventually they are able to talk it out though and end up in a relationship. YIPEE!!!!!! Ortho moves in permanently around this time with his internship over with his 2 dogs to add to the family. :)

There’s a lot of stuff with STYX and Woe I haven’t fuuuuuully sorted out the details of, but Idia does eventually have to go back for a while to put her research to use and put an end to things. I think this period is really tough because she does Not want Trix to see what a horrible place it is and how it’s the source of so many awful things it was so she tries to leave him. She doesn’t obv and she’s able to successfully find a solution to the Phantom problem.

Once she’s back, though, she does have a near immediate breakdown- with it all over, her brain can actually like. Process what her life was up to that point and she just kind of snaps. She ends up hospitalized for a few months to keep her safe from a HORRIFIC schizophrenic break. Trix uses STYX Bux for a place to stay so he can visit her near daily and help her through it. There’s also a REALLY bad incident with Ortho.

Minus that though from there it’s… really just them being happy, healing, and transitioning with each other. Idia becomes an indie game dev and Trix becomes a horror writer. He still streams (she started vtubing somewhere along the way too), but they’ve never publicly posted about their relationship. It’s really funny because it’s like blatant but they just try to act like it isn’t LMAO.

As they get older, they move to a small, quiet place in the Queendom of Roses. They have 3 kids (who I also have ocs for but that’s WAY too cringe) who are very well loved. Ortho also lives with them and they have a very happy family. :)

TL;DR: Idia wins the VTuber Fuck A Fan contest.

players aren’t their orgs. If I say I like a team, this doesn’t mean I like every player, and vice versa!!

The narratives are lying to you!!! LOOK PAST THEM. THE HOCKEY TELLS THE TRUTH!!!!!

I love hockey SO much !! Love of the game comes before ANYTHING, including teams!!! Talk to me about strategy. Show me spinoramas and ankle breaking dekes and head fakes and set plays. Talk to me about face-offs and your favourite underrated blorbo.

no seriously please send me propaganda i love propaganda i am a hair trigger away from adopting new guys. i've done it mid-game and id do it again!!!!!!!!!!!

Team rivalries don’t matter to me. My girls are beating the hell out of each other? The beautiful gaeme ...

i’m here for a laff and it truly aint that serious <3

Do Not expect me to have any couth about the CBR Brave!! I keep things light with the NHL but all that doesn’t apply here — I WILL be spiteful and unhinged!! im sorry the sports nationalism got to me!!!

that being said: CALIFORNIA SWEEEP!

hey please dont be weird in the tags of my posts about teams/players i clearly like. yeah even That Team. i don't want to hear about how you hope someone "escapes" or how much you hate xyz player. make your own post.

this is a non-rpf blog. I might lean into the narratives but tbh I’m not into men and don’t get much out of romantic shipping. Nothing against it though! I think everyone should engage with hockey however they like as long as it does no harm to themselves or others. Ride that ship into the sunset my loves we are holding fins 👍

gifs, videos, memes, photos by me will come described with alt text. I try my best as someone who has used a screenreader in the past, but please let me know if I miss anything.

30/07/2024 sources for any media i post will be linked to a live site + using the wayback machine when I can, or just live websites when I can't (in the case of youtube videos). yeah ok i finally gave in @ that one anon calling this wikipedia editor behaviour you are correct and WHAT OF IT!!!!!!!

5/08/2024 - NOTE live website links always precede archive links whether I label them or not. if there is no link 'pair' it means the wayback machine can't snapshot the link i put up. In the case of twitter/instagram and other such sites that require a logged in device to view certain pages i will do my best to grab the direct img link and archive that.

[ link 1, archive link // link 2, archive link ] <- self explanatory, long form.

[ x, x ] <- single source of media, will use for aesthetic purposes on gifsets and formal web weaving. same with: [ x || y // x || y ] <- "//" double slash denotes a new source, x is the live link, y is the archive link.

if a link or source is not immediately obvious I may have: 1) done an in-line link, click any underlined or bold-underlined text; 2) I might have missed it by mistake, please be patient and maybe shoot me a flag about it in my inbox/dms if you want !!! we are all human and I'm doing my best <3

I'm aware this is not the most fastidious archival practice! my goal isn't to be the arbiter of archival standards for sourcing. I don't know how long I'll love hockey or these teams, how long tumblr will be around, but going from here I'd just like this blog to be a place where fans years from now can come back to and not have to do as much digging as I did to source media.

[mediumtires]

I'm still not over this. How in the world Christian is sharing this and expect us to be okay ? HOW??

I'm also living for Fed to be there as their chaperon 😂 he cannot let these menaces free or chaos will prevail.

It got me thinking now, is Fred going to tease the hell out of Toto at each TP meetings now?

i would like to formally apologise i don’t understand how no one else is losing their mind about this? i am so about to lose my mind?

you’re telling me christian horner and toto wolff shared a flight to melbourne (loooooong flight from the uk) and christian just causally drops that bomb on us like it’s something they do all the time?

i swear the most compelling thing about them is that THEY LIKE EACH OTHER. all the yelling and the one upping and the creating fake scenarios for netflix, the comments, the quotes they feed the press, the mind games, "i don't have to kiss his arse" etc etc etc but at the end of the day they’ve been around the paddock together for over a decade. in 2014/15/16/17/18 they hung around each other ALL THE TIME.

and then 2021 happened and gLoVeS wErE oFf but even after that— may i remind everyone of preseason testing 2022?

this was literally only A FEW WEEKS after that commission meeting where masi got fired relocated. weeks after toto wore a black turtleneck like he’d just buried the w12. and they were acting like giggling schoolgirls twirling their hair and having a laff? are you joking? are you telling me these two whiny conceited big headed team bosses can just forgive and forget?

YES AND ITS BECAUSE THEY LIKE EACH OTHER. toto probably acknowledged what happened in ad wasn’t christian’s fault and christian’s crush on toto is big enough that he could move past merc protesting max's win and getting his bestie michael fired relocated.

and now you’re telling me they’re sharing flights. sure sure. probably because they’re really environmentally conscious. maybe even an accidental booking on a commercial flight. two personal assistants going “whoopsie didn’t check the passenger list sorry”. three if you count in fred but he and toto probably booked that flight together. surely they weren’t plane pooling a private chartered flight. cough cough surely not. these three old rich men (billionaire toto wolff) would totally sit first class on a commercial flight, 17 hours among commoners, before one of the hardest races of the season, one of them with a broken back, one of them blind, and one of them with a tummy ache. these three very rich men would totally suck it up and bite the bullet to make sure their carbon footprints stay as low as possible.

HELL no i don’t believe it for a second. they plane pooled. BECAUSE THEYRE FRIENDS.

christian is the longest serving tp along with franz tost but toto has been around since 2011ish when he first started at williams. they've known each other for A LONG TIME. no other team principals have been around as consistently and continuously as these two. sure some of the current tps have been around the paddock in other roles. and yet with the exception of toto and fred, none of them are "friends".

i am convinced they started hanging out. they must have because they were the two youngest tps around and everyone else was boring (except for maurizio my beloved). they build a rapport. some kind of undefinable bond, not friends, not colleagues, rivals maybe, but there's respect. even if christian won't ever admit to it ever. maybe they don't go to dinner together but I'm convinced they text occasionally, anything between "happy birthday" and "fuck you for buying out my engineer i actually needed that one". also. christian is ceo of a top level performing technology business (lmao) and if there's one thing toto knows it's management and finance. like I cannot imagine they have never had conversations about that. they're both passionate about racing. sure they probably have like hugeeee differences in opinions about certain things but it's because they're both willing to do whatever it takes for their team to win. they must respect that in the other. (their opinions are probably not even that different if we think about it. probably scarily similar actually. this is the problem, they are very much two sides of the same coin. they want their team to win and they’re willing to do pretty much anything to get there. they look at each other and don’t like what they see because they’re literally mirror images.) (THEYRE TOO SIMILAR)

IN CONCLUSION. they like each other. they may not be friends by common definition but THEY ARE SOMETHING. they share flights I rest my case.

(also yes obviously fred makes fun of them all the time it’s how he’s coded)

7, 12 and 16 for the writers asks !!!

oh and also, if you don’t mind, i know you write AND draw and was wondering if you rather consider yourself a writer who draws or an artist who writes or both equally or nuance etc? but only if you care to answer obvs!

@matchvedev

7. your preferred writing fonts

whatever god gives me... so typically ariel but in academic writing i go and format it immediately into times new roman. idk what if i said papyrus what would yall even do. KILL ME ?

12. a trope youre really into right now

mpreg mthursday... idk i am always turning over ways to Fix the Rosquez Problem and/or things that would make them worse and crazier people. and a baby is BOTH like i HAD to write a fic abt it... you cant avoid each other now geniuses... other than that, i do like to look at the rosquez fanfiction miasma and turn over what sorts of stuff you would classically find in a healthy fandom that hasnt been done yet/hasnt been done in my own style yet, like when i wrote genderbend and time travel and now mpreg. just the classics that can make my brain go brrr and make marc/vale's sound like old gears clanking together, so im thinking over what would be next... im toying w some version of forced proximity curse but idk we'll see

16. fav place to write

recently i've been writing so much on the clock tbh so the second floor of redacted public library has seen so much... after that i like to do it on my couch or in my little corner armchair... cozy...

writer or artist?

immm every womannnn therye allll in meeeeee... idk i dont tie myself too much to an identity as a fandom content creator or whatever bc i think that can get a little transactional! this isnt a job im not an employee theres no niche i have to work to fill... im a writer when i feel it im an artist when i feel it and im a silly joke poster when they pop into my brain. so for MEEE this is something i do to stave off the crush of boredom and talk to cool smart people and have a laff <3 and like for example. ive very purposefully kept away from monetizing my art irl so it doesnt become a chore and remains a passion !!! and i try to do that here

[ratingboomercomics]

I know that the whole making fun of boomer comics thing is not “in” anymore but occasionally I see one that still makes me laff. Like this amazing drawing. Obviously I took this from reddit(I go on Reddit sometimes forgive me lol), and the person who posted it got it from TikTok, and who knows where they got it from so I don’t know 100% for sure if it was made by a boomer, but it is a boomer comic in spirit.

Could you imagine how funny it would be if they dug under the Washington monument and there was actually just a big Pinocchio there. And his big nose was the Washington monument. I think that would make up for like 78% of the awful dumb shit that’s happened since 2016.

This feels like a dream I would have after eating too much cheese before bed. I have so many questions… Is he alive like Pinocchio? Who made him? A big Gepetto(or however you spell that old man’s name), I have to assume.

5/10- solid, very powerful drawing and concept, but I absolutely cannot begin to imagine why someone would imagine or make this.

[imjssmthig]

PART TWO: Hamilton AU

Mr jefferson came to the parking lot of the school. His hair was pulled back into a ponytail bun, but unlike laffs it was slicked. He came as Washington helped him and his son inside the school to get away from the kids.

“kids since we were almost done, wrap this up and go inside to get your stuff” coach sighed “why is this ambulance taking so damn long”

everyone went into the locker rooms.

“psst. Madison”

“what hamilton”

“where’s jefferson?”

“how should i know YOURE the one who destroyed his leg.”

“fair. i want to apologize”

“why are you telling me this?”

“idk you guys seem to be close”

Madison took a puff of his inhaler and returned to his conversation

“obviously. look i’m not sure where he is just apologize next time you see him because ik damn well he won’t open your texts”

“you have his number?” burr asked shocked

“for debate club. yes” hamilton responded.

then hamilton had an idea

“guys can we stick around a bit after?”

“why?” herc asked chugging a red gatorade after he asked the question.

hamilton started to explain as they made their way out the locker room “i want to see why-“

“jefferson wanted his siblings?” angelica said

“FU- yea” hamilton said

“where’d you come from?” lauren’s said, wrapping an arm around peggy’s shoulder. no one could really tell if they liked each other or were just best friends.

“the bleachers. is he ok martha’s really worried”

“i’m not sure” laff responded.

“where’s martha anyways?” eliza said

“she went home with dolley and madison.”

“are those two really a good couple? i mean dolley doesn’t really like anything he does.” lauren’s said

“she’s not much a doll” peggy continued

“whatever makes them happy”

then they came to an abrupt stop as herc put his arm out to stop them.

“shh”

as they stopped they heard jefferson and his father having a conversation

“your hairs a wreck” his father started

“it was my wash day anyways i was about to wash it”

“why don’t you just tie it up?”

“i can’t”

“why not”

“someone in our school looks too much like me to do that and his hair up. plus…it..just didn’t look good on me”

they all looked at laff

“you care too much for your looks boy” his father spits again

“i wonder where that came from”

“are you back talking?”

“..”

“well?”

“no”

“good. and you better recover from this ok?” he said, aggressively put his hand down on his sons leg, which he had sprawled out against a cafeteria bench.

“yes” jefferson quickly said, face scrunching in pain when his father turned away.

“you have had a scholarship. i want you to maintain that. no son of mine will end up as much of a failure as you’re becoming.”

“mhm”

“look at your siblings” your brother is a lawyer. your sisters a nurse. your other brothers are doctors. i was hoping your scholarship would get you somewhere but obviously you can’t do that right either”

“guys im gonna go” lauren’s said

“same” peggy agreed

“why? angelica said

“maybe he doesn’t want us to hear this” eliza said walking along with john and peggy.

“true.” herc and laff said at the same time.

“did you two forget IM your ride home?” angelica said

“i don’t want to intrude on his privacy” eliza said emphatically

“yea same i know i wouldn’t want people knowing about this if i was..you know…getting..well you get it” lauren’s stammered.

“you know how much this damn ambulance and hospital visit is gonna cost me? not that i can’t afford it because unlike some people i got a GOOD future, but it’s still gonna cost me a lot”

“yes”

“i’m leaving.” lauren’s declared as he, peggy and eliza walked out. as they did they heard the ambulance arrive.

“guys im hungry can we go on a drive and get food?” peggy asked

“sure” john said. “do you guys wa-“

“YO FRECKLES WAIT UP” herc screamed, as he and laff pulled up

“mind if we join?” he said

“you sticking w angie and alex?”

“nope”

“then go ahead”

they all hopped in the car and drove off. they wondered what happened but didn’t really care much as they knew that one of the two who stayed would update them.

“who just texted me?” john said

“alex” peggy responded

“what’d he say?”

“oh.”

“what?”

“he asked if yk anyone that’ll be a good player?”

“thomas can’t play?”

“i guess not”

“no way.” herc said

“why r u so sad?”

“he was our best player. besides me obviously. damn”

“whatever don’t respond to alex he was being-“

“inhuman?”eliza said

“i was gonna say nosy. but whatever”

Toontown Corporate Clash Recap: Toontown Central Cogs

Okay so, before I begin, let me just explain that Trap Gags were updated a couple days ago so that, when multiple Traps are set on the same Cog in the same turn, all are overwritten except for the most powerful.

Now, on to Toontown Central’s Cogs:

(Note: because of how I split my information up, some information unrelated to the Cogs was mixed in.)

Toontown Central Playground has four tunnels that each lead to different streets:

Puncline Place, which connects to Barnacle Boatyard. The Fisherman is a purple duck named Punchy. Its Cog Population is 40% Sellbots, 40% Cashbots, 5% Lawbots, 5% Bossbots, 10% Boardbots, and every Cog that spawns has a 5% chance of being an executive.

Silly Street, which connects to Ye Olde Toontowne. The Fisherman is a yellow duck named Billy. Its Cog population is 20% Sellbot, 20% Cashbot, 20% Lawbot, 20% Bossbot, and 20% Boardbot. Its Cogs have a 10% chance of being executives.

Wacky Way, which connects to Daffodil Garden. It used to have a white kiwi named Fruity as its Fisherman, but Fruity was removed from the game a while ago. Its Cog population is 5% Sellbot, 5% Cashbot, 20% Lawbot, 30% Bossbot, and 40% Boardbot. Every Cog on this street has a 5% chance of being an executive.

Loopy Lane, which connects to Mezzo Melodyland. The Fisherman is an orange cat named Droopy.  Its Cog population is 5% Sellbot, 5% Cashbot, 40% Lawbot, 30% Bossbot, and 20% Boardbot, with a 5% Executive chance.

Most of the Neighborhood’s Cog Level Range is from Levels 1-4, with the exception of Silly Street, which has a Level Range of 1-3.

Level 1 Cogs can create 1 story Cog Buildings, Level 2 Cogs Tier 1 2 Story Cog Buildings, Level 3 can make Tier 2 2 Story Cog Buildings, Level 4 Cogs make Tier 1 3 Story Cog Buildings. There’s a maximum of 3 Cog buildings per street, and Level 5, 6, and 7 Cogs can appear in buildings.

I’ll only be covering the Cogs that can appear on the streets, however.

You can encounter Cogs up to Level 4, allowing you to meet the following Cogs in battle on the Streets:

Because I’m tired of recounting Cogs I’m going to save the building exclusive Cogs for the next post. Thankfully, future neighborhoods will NOT introduce as many new Cogs at once, which will give me WAY more breathing room.

That said, there is ONE Cog who can only be found on Toontown Central’s streets.

Duck Shuffler: Level 5 Cashbot Manager. He wears an unkempt Cashbot suit. Red duck head with a slot machine in place of his eyes, tongue sticking out of his toothy bill, lever for the slot machine sticking out of the side of his head, and several playing cards sticking out of the top of his cap. Real name: Buck Ruffler.

Honorifics: Mr.

Likes: Jackpots, Raising the Stakes, Chips

Dislikes: Poor Odds, Bank Statements, Trouble Hands

The Duck Shuffler will patrol a street for 10 minutes. If nobody challenges him, he’ll fly away and choose a new street to spawn on within the next 15 seconds (possibly selecting the street he just flew away from). If challenged to a battle, he’ll automatically spawn on another street in the same neighborhood. The Duck Shuffler will walk through existing Cog battles without joining them. Only one instance of the Duck Shuffler may exist on a street at any one time, though each street can have simultaneous Duck Shuffler instances.

Duck Shuffler groups can be created anywhere in Toontown Central, though they will automatically disband if the leader goes to another Neighborhood.

When a member of the group initiates a battle with the Duck Shuffler, all their groupmates will gain the ability to teleport to the battle. Once the Toon side of the battle reaches capacity, the Group will disband.

All Toons in the Duck Shuffler fight are subject to Content Sync, in order to ensure that experienced players won’t be able to just sweep the fight and ruin the fun for inexperienced players.

The Content Sync is as follows:

20 Laff Soft Cap (with a hard maximum of 28 for Toons at Max Laff, please don’t ask me to explain the formula).

Gag Level 2 Cap (higher level Gags are temporarily downgraded to fit the level cap)

No Boss Rewards Allowed

As long as the Duck Shuffler is present in the fight, Cogs have a high chance of joining. Ordinarily, Cogs will only join fights in Toontown Central to match with the number of Toons, with defeated Cogs being counted towards the cap. Here, Cogs will join the battle as long as the Duck Shuffler is alive and there is a free slot.

The Duck Shuffler ignores all Cog Health formulas. His max HP is instead fixed at 200.

He only has one attack:

Spin: Sends sparkles after one Toon, spinning around them. This spins the target, lifts them in the air, and drops them to the ground.

As a Manager, the Duck Shuffler has access to unique abilities, known as Cheats.

His Cheats are as follows:

Lure Resistance: The Duck Shuffler has a Lure Resistance of 1 round. This means he’ll automatically unlure whenever its his turn to attack.

Wager Management: The Duck Shuffler pulls the lever on the side of his head to activate the slot machine that exists in place of his eyes. This can activate one of the following effects:

Bust: No effect. He did not get three of the same symbol.

Bar: Upon rolling all Bars, gold bars are dropped on both sides of the field, damaging both Toons and Cogs. It is possible for the Duck Shuffler to defeat himself this way.

Ducks: Upon rolling all Ducks, the Duck Shuffler turns all Toons in the fight into Duck Toons and deals 4 laff points of damage to them. The Duck transformation lingers until the end of the battle.

Sevens: Upon rolling all Sevens, the Duck Shuffler will restore 7 Laff to every Toon and 7 HP to every Cog, including himself. This can put all Cogs above their max HP, at which point their health indicators will turn light blue until their HP drops to or below their starting amount.

Jellybeans: Upon rolling all Cherries, the Duck Shuffler will give all Toons at LEAST 20 Jellybeans (more if any of the affected Toons are under the effect of Jellybean Boosters).

When the Duck Shuffler is defeated, he’ll fly away, and Cogs will stop joining the battle. However, Toons will still be under the affect of Content Sync until the battle is over, meaning they still have to defeat the remaining Cogs.

Once a day, the Duck Shuffler will drop a Sweetener. His Sweetener will refresh at midnight (allowing you to claim it again the following day), and your Cog Gallery will tell you when its available.

The Sweetener is as follows:

10 Gumballs*

100 Jellybeans

150 Toon Experience

* There’s a cap on the number of Gumballs claimed from a Sweetener per week. Once you hit 1000 Gumballs from Sweeteners, you won’t be able to collect anymore from Sweeteners until the week is over. Jellybeans and Experience can be boosted by other factors.

Additionally, the Duck Shuffler also has some Very Rare Loot:

Duck Shuffler Sticker

Moneybag Backpack

Every time you defeat the Duck Shuffler, the odds of him dropping one of his Very Rare prizes increase. This will eventually give him a 100% chance of dropping them if you are extremely unlucky. You cannot get duplicate drops.

Additionally, he thpeakth with a lithp, rethulting in hith thpeech looking like thith. Thith ith becauthe of a botched repair job from a fellow Manager.

He was WAY more sane before that incident, but given that he’s more entertaining this way, I’m not complaining.

Every Neighborhood has a Manager patrolling the Streets, and Managers don’t show up in the Cog Gallery until you defeat them for the first time.

Still though, welcome to Toontown Central, I hope this wasn’t too overwhelming.

Next time, we’ll be covering the Sidetasks.

I know I compliment the wordplay every time but GOD that’s fantastic and the visuals sound quite creative for all of those.

Also what happened to Fruity??

honorhearted​:

Although Ben had been hurt, angry, resentful, his irreverent passions had never truly been directed towards her. Isabelle was his love, his light, his very breath, and it agonized him to see her in such a restless state.

“There is nothing to forgive,” he promised, cupping her face. “I have had many years to be angry – seven long, miserable years – so now I only want to forget; to move on…to be happy with you and you alone. The rest of the world doesn’t matter. Not anymore." 

Pleadingly, he stroked her hair, and that was when Isabelle finally assented. The unease was apparent on her face, but she finally turned and guided him towards the manor. He kept in step at her side, holding his hand supportively against the small of her back. You and me and me and you. There was no ending, not with the two of them, and he felt emboldened the closer they drew to Allard Manor.

Upon entry, the housemaid squeaked, nearly dropping her tray before Isabelle intervened. Ben remained quiet during this exchange. He offered the woman a frayed smile, but she was far too overwhelmed to offer one in return.

Isabelle took his hand, and then they entered the drawing room as though they were invited. In an instant, an unearthly hush befell the crowd. Despite all eyes being on him, Ben’s sharp, hardened gaze only sought one man in the crowd – the one man who’d not only ruined his life, but laid waste to his entire heart and soul in a single breath.

“Michel,” he greeted. His tone was curt, icy. “I hope you can forgive my tardiness, sir, but it would seem my invitation was lost in the mail.” Slowly, the smile on his face grew disdainful. “Evidently, all your post riders seem to have holes in their saddlebags. Isabelle spoke of how all my letters went missing.” His smile almost grew razor-sharp. “How fortunate that we were able to find one another again.”

Isabelle thought she might become physically ill. It was sickening to her — the sight of her father enjoying himself amongst the company and overflow of champagne, free of any care in the world. Meanwhile, she had spent most of the day in torment over the revelation of his abominable actions. Has he always secretly been this way? Up until this morning, her father had never given her a reason to suspect he was anything but noble and forthright, a man worthy of respect and honor. It was sickening to think her own father wasn’t the person she thought she knew…

Michel Allard was not to be mistaken for a fool. All along he had known this day would arrive, though he imagined a more private affair rather than in front of one too many spectators. With his slate, steely eyes sizing up Ben then flickering towards Isabelle, the French patriarch didn’t appear the least bit surprised, which inadvertently filled Isabelle with an increasing exasperation, altogether replacing the nerves she had carried with her to this moment.

Never one to intermingle family matters with that of business, he turned to the men and said, “Gentlemen, my apologies – it would appear our evening has been cut short.” Though his English was near perfect, his French accent had hardly reduced in all the years spent in America. 

Michel had no need to say anything more. The tension in the air spread quickly, lingering like a foul odor, more than enough to make one feel a lack of ease and perhaps the need for a fresh breath of air. The men exchanged glances with one another before the whole company rose from their seats and bid their goodnights, to Ben and Isabelle included. It was then Isabelle realized Josiah was missing among the guests. Once the room had cleared, he shifted his eyes, looking rather unconcerned at the pair. “Ben, so we meet again.”

Isabelle frowned. He didn’t even deny Ben’s accusation. And just how could he? Now more than ever, it was evident he’d done it, the absence of any defense on his part just as good as a spoken confession to her. Her heart sank. A part of her had hoped they were both wrong, that somehow there could be another plausible explanation than her father being culpable.

Michel gestured. “Please, be my guest, have a seat.” Oh, now he wanted to be friendly, Isabelle fumed in silence. “Or don’t…”

“Well, I reckon she has also told you about the recent nuptials to Monsieur Josiah Butterfield, whom I believe you are quite familiar with, yes?” He didn’t wait for an answer before continuing, “Seeing as my daughter is legally bound to the man, just what are you planning to do, pray tell? Do you mean to soil her reputation? Or worse, let Isabelle herself bring shame and disgrace upon her name.”

[agaytransrat]

Ok…

Hear me out y’all..

Hamilton x six

Aragon-Jefferson

Boleyn-Alexander

Jane-Madison

Anna-Lafayette

Howard-Burr

Parr-John

Alexander saying “why haven’t it hit him? He doesn’t wanna bang you. Somebody hand you” to Jefferson. Yes!

And! “It’s calling wearing purple to a funeral. Hit the light! Thomas! Was a MASSIVE! HO-!” Perfect

And then John singing “I don’t need your love. No~ No~” :)

And. “Let’s see who gets the most votes. Trauma or abuse. Whooo..” I think it fits



Burr singing all you wanna do makes a little bit of sense.

Like! “I thought this time was different..why did I think he’d be different..but it’s never..EVER!..different..NO! NO!” I just think it fits him you know.

And!

Burr:same!

Alex:yeah same! Nice neck by the way!

Madison as Jane. Like come on y’all it makes sense.

And that one line on the musical.

Madison:what hurts more than a broken heart?..

Alexander:a severed head.

And also! “OH BOO HOO! BABY MARRY HAD THAT CHICKEN POCKS AND YOU DID NOT GET TO HOLD HER HAND! YOU KNOW ITS FUNNY BECAUSE WHEN I WANTED TO HOLD MY NEW BORN SON! I DIED!” I think that part would also be funny

Laff as Anna. It just fits him.

Laff:so yeah! I really had it hard-

Jefferson:that doesn’t sound difficult at all.

Just yes!

And Jefferson. As Aragon. Yes

Him singing no way! Like yesssss!

And it would be so funny to see the queens fight as them. Like! Look! (This does have spoilers and btw This if from Six the musical slime tutorial Broadway proshot)

Burr:and then I was behead. Yeah I know I know. Now seeing as I won the competition. All I wanna do! Is take this opportunity to thank all the powerful men who got me to where I am today. Couldn’t have done it without you! Thank you New York!

(Everyone starts yelling)

Madison:ok! Hold up! Yeah..you really had it bad. But that’s not the most heart-wrenching song we’ve heard this evening.

Burr:I’m sorry. Where you not listening to my song? There where 4 courses. that’s how much sh!t I had to deal with.

Madison:yes sorry so true. But when you died your son didn’t have to grow up with out a father- oh wait that was me and no one cared when you died.

Alexander:James! Chill out! It’s not his fault that no one remembers his bland and uneventful life! babes. Honestly. I don’t want it to be weird between us. Just because my beheading was the result of years of actual trauma and humiliation.

Jefferson:oh pipe down Alex! You seriously want to talk about humiliation?! Ok well when I was queen Washington had not one. Not two. But three historically confirmed mistresses!

(Alex start to fake cry)

Alex:get over it. When I was queen I had not one. Not two! But three! Miscarriages!

Jefferson:well you know what Asslex! I had! Five miscarriages!

Laff:how about we just move it along shall we? Come on queens

This is just yes!

Ok that’s literally all I wanted to say.

Don’t ask any questions about miscarriages or the queen parts.

:)

I might do something cool with this. You can do whatever you want with this information.

I’m not gonna stop you from your Cheerful Chip fan fiction

Matter in fact To be honest I’m always wonder what kind of wonderful improved artful art than the last art will be with you and Chip will be

It’s just that I’m think there is a certain sad wet cat waiting on the porch metaphorically saying

But beside that, Your Art has improved over the time and I am glad to have witnessed it

-H/B Anon

P.s. I don’t know if the wording color is for you ,for me it’s Black

P.p.s. How bout role swap, our beloved Himbo and Bimbo as Toons and their beloved Chelly as a Cog (a tall Chelly is something )

hiiiiiiii nonny~ hehe thank you very much for all of the encouraging words, I appreciate it so much!!!! <3 don't worry, misty will get the braincell soon. however. for now we have more pressing things to discuss. the role swap au.

You got me going again SOOOO much lmao- Here they are!!!! The poly roleswapped!!! Unfortunately Chelly. does not get much taller lol She's just a bit taller than the tallest possible toon species'. Chelly is based on those cute little vacuums with the little faces on them. You've seen those before, right? If not please look them up they're so cute.

I'LL WRITE ALL THE INFO UNDER THE CUT BC THIS GETS VERY LONG <3

Chip is a wolf toon, and Misty is a sheep toon! Both ideas were by my lovely friend @photon-crest-art whose input I appreciate sooo much!!! her ideas got me going foaming at the mouth crazy over this role swap even more than I already was SDHGDSGHDSHS also tagging @frostbite-the-bat bc they also hyped me up a lot while I was in the process of making all these!!! <3

When it comes to the whole override thing, Chip just. Goes absolutely wild at night sometimes. He's a werewolf!!! But. literally since he's already a wolf. this was also photon's idea thank you photooooon heehee <3

Misty has her weather powers still! So she can still change weather phases and essentially smite people with lightning if they make her really mad lol

Unfortunately both toons are outcast because of their respective 'quirks'. However, to their surprise, one person does support them through it all! They weren't expecting it to be this absolute nervous wreck of a cog who is, surprisingly, very very silly and toon-like! She clings to them like glue, but they appreciate it so much!! I feel like toon Chip and toon Misty would both be very sad very lonely toons, perhaps becoming more prone to bouts of low laff and poor health as such from such a poor mental state. However, they've got each other now and Chelly too!! Just like how the normal toon Chelly's health was pretty shit due to her mental state but improved having Chip and Misty around, she's now able to pay that love back ten-fold in this au!! Hehe it always comes back to 'love heals' with me <3

OH YES AND I WROTE CHELLY'S COG STATS!!!! a. and potential bossfight cutscenes. um. yeah. I went a little overboard haha. these cutscenes are uh. I think they're longer than the ones in-game??? I. don't know. I think they are. sorry not sorry >u<

Opening Cutscene 

The Toons enter the doors at the far back of the building, leading them to the real cog clinic inside. The Mechanician is seen speaking to a Flunky. Neither cog seems to notice their approach, as they are focused on their consultation while the Toons get closer.

“...and that should do it then, little sprout!”

 “Are you sure this is alright, Ms. Honeywell? Wouldn’t the Chairman get angry over that?”

At the Flunky’s concerns, the Mechanician fiddles with her hands. She shakes her head before re-addressing the Flunky.

“...R-Right. He may see it as ‘slacking’, but… well. You know how I feel about that. Just… try to heed my instructions to the best of your ability.” 

“Whatever you have the room to do, okay, bud? Remember, your health comes first.”

“Yes, ma’am! Thank you again.”

The Flunky begins to fly away, and with a nod, she sees him off.

“Of course. Come back any time!”

The Mechanician sighs, shaking her head.

“Ugh. You’d think that man-baby would realize sooner… without us all, he’s…-”

She trails off, turning upon noticing the Toons. She startles, letting out a squeak at their presence, but tries to relax herself to make conversation with them.

“Ah! T-Toons?! Uh- Ahem.” 

“Um… hello there! Are you… perhaps here for a check-up? I apologize, but… um, ahaha.. I-I only know how to treat cogs.”

“Unless you… have an appliance in need of fixing? I can do that too…”

The Toons get angry. The Mechanician pulls her hands up to her chest, taking a few steps back, clearly nervous.

“Eep! O-Okay, message received… U-Um… oh, look! Is that, um, a doodle pup?”

The Mechanician gestures behind the toons. The Toons turn around to look, all confused when they see nothing. The Mechanician begins tip-toeing away while they’re distracted. One toon looks back at her and exclaims as they see her try to sneak away. She yelps and breaks into a panicked sprint, running off into another, much larger room room further in the building. The Toons make chase.

She runs into a storage room and to an emergency escape door. However, before she reaches it, a stick of TNT thrown by a toon lands in front of the door. She startles and stumbles away from it before it explodes. The exit is now unusable. She turns, and the toons have caught up to her.

“Oh no… wait, h-hold on..! Surely we can talk things out civilly, r-right?! I… I really don’t want to fight you!”

The Toons refuse and begin to approach, the Mechanician backing up towards the wall as they close in.

“N-No, please!! I don’t want to hurt anyone… please don’t make me! I… someone, help!!”

The Mechanician reaches into her pocket, pulling out a panic button and pressing it with shaking hands. Once she does, two cogs promptly fly into the room, landing at the Mechanician’s sides. The battle begins.

Ending Cutscene (Mercy)

The Mechanician reaches to her power core, hand hovering over it shakily. She is clearly in immense pain, her panic now reaching a boiling point as she realizes how injured she really is. Suddenly, her hands clench into fists and she quakes through the pain, knocking the toons off their feet. The quake doesn’t damage the toons, however.

“STOP!!!! THAT.. IS QUITE.. ENOUGH!!!”

She shakes her head, pulling her hands to her chest protectively and looking at the Toons as they rise to their feet.

“Why…?! I’ve been clear from the beginning that I didn’t want to fight! But… B-But you just won’t LISTEN!”

Her hands rise, holding her head in distress.

“Wh-What do you even get from this… from hurting me?!”

The Toons do nothing.

“I… I get it. This war. It… must be so stressful on you. On all of you.”

“B-But… I’ve been careful… so, so careful!”

The Mechanician turns her head, looking away from the toons for a moment before turning back to them.

“I… I know we’re *supposed* to fight toons, but… I’ve never seen the point. All of this violence is ridiculous to me.”

“All I’ve ever wanted was to stay on the sidelines, and to help those who were hurt.”

“I mean… I’ve never even gone out and fought toons before, anyhow! ...So… why? W-Why me?”

The Toons do nothing.

“...Ah. So that’s why. You see me as a threat… because of what I do for my fellow suits?”

The Mechanician shakes her head in disappointment.

“Have you Toons ever put yourselves in a Suit’s shoes? A-At least… just for a moment?”

“If you did, you’d understand. I… I understand the plight you Toons go through.”

“However, you’re not the only ones suffering. Whether they fall low or high on the chain of command… we all hurt, just the same.”

She pauses, wincing in pain herself. She’s visibly twitching and glitching out.

“Wh-What, do you think we deserve for our pain to stick forever? That no-obody should help us when we’re hurt?”

“......”

“Could you i-i-imagine it yourself? Feeling like gravity’s about to crush you… i-into small, mushy, toony bits?” 

“Where… where all yo-o-ou can do is panic, and hope? Because, at th-that point, there’s nothing you can do? No way to mov-ve, or call out… or anything.”

“...You’d want your fe-ellow toons to help you when you’re hur-ur-hurt and scared, wouldn’t you?”

The Toons do nothing.

“...Right. I’d h-hope so. At the mo-oment it may be all f-fun and games… and I wish it st-stayed that way. B-B-But we.. all know that isn’t the case.”

The Mechanician sighs, twitching more heavily than before.

“...”

“W-Well… perhaps this experience has.. given you some food for thought.”

The Mechanician pauses, seeing an opening in the roof from the battle. She looks at the Toons one last time, expression saddened.

“Now… i-if… if you’ll ex-excuse me. Seems… this repairwoman… n-needs some repairing, herself. Please… if you can help it… d-don’t come back.”

The Mechanician moves to fly away, but one of the toons walks ahead of the group, pausing near her. She pauses, watching the toon for a moment, before nodding.

“It’s okay, I understand. I-I-IIIIIIIIIII-”

“..I forgive you.”

The Mechanician flies away.

Ending Cutscene (Defeat)

The Mechanician reaches to her power core, hand hovering over it shakily. She is clearly in immense pain, her panic now reaching a boiling point as she realizes how injured she really is. Suddenly, her hands clench into fists and she quakes through the pain, knocking the toons off their feet.

“STOP!!!! THAT.. IS QUITE.. ENOUGH!!!”

She shakes her head, pulling her hands to her chest protectively and looking at the Toons as they rise to their feet.

“Why…?! I’ve been clear from the beginning that I didn’t want to fight! But… B-But you just won’t LISTEN!”

Her hands rise, holding her head in distress.

“Wh-What do you even get from this… from hurting me?!”

The Toons attack.

“Gh-!! ……Heartless… y-you’re all heartless!”

The Mechanician pauses, seeing an opening in the roof from the battle. She looks at the Toons one last time, expression disgusted.

“I see now… w-why the Chairman insists we fight you T-T-Toons. You’re just as cr-cruel as some of those suits can be.”

The Mechanician flies away.

Notes

[Sorry no specific Cheats past the usual ‘Cog Capacity’ and ‘Lure Resistance’ ones because my brain is kind of melting right now lol. Also no specific damages listed with each attack besides what I already said above about the minimum and maximum for the same reason.]

Another note about cheats, I know for certain she’d have a sort of healing cheat. Knowing her personality she’d end up healing herself, her allies AND the toons. She just wanna be frens :(

Attacks

Guilt Trip

Water Cooler

Brain Storm

Rolodex

Her employee ID is based on the approximate year the first motorized vacuum was invented.

Excluding her nickname "Chelly", her first, middle and last name are all based on various companies that produce vacuums.

I was initially going to have it that all rewards could be used, but with how cog Chelly is, she'd do anything to ensure that pink slips wouldn't be used. She thinks the canons would hurt the cogs, or that someone, toon or cog, might get hit in the crossfire.

also that 3rd drawing, the transparent one. sticker :)))))))))))
