Woagh. Kinda big yokai/oc art dump because slideshows on a certain app feel like NOT working for me

First all the just yokai related stuff!

(Including some of my ocs bc I'm shameless)

Also I separated squid n maddiman stuff bc there's enough to fill a category by itself me thinks

And finally some of my sona and an oc or two ^u^

Cher Cher belongs to/is my friend who isn't on here (*￣∇￣*)

If a few things look weird it's because they're older or taken in different lighting, I was too lazy to retake them all (T∀T)

"Intriguingly Alluring"

(Dedicated to @x-files4everdd~. Merry Christmas!)

Set during the events of Humbug.

*****

This whole case, from beginning to end, was a circus.  

A little on the nose, so to speak; but it fit: he and Scully, a two person act themselves, caught up in the swirl of reformed showbusiness and love that was deeper than skin deep. His by-some-standards desirable stature loping not far behind her little feet’s tap-tap-tap code along the pavement. Both racing from cemetery to potato hole to jailhouse, captured in a thousand mirrors while the final gag played itself out. 

Staring down the RV park, Mulder was aware that dozens of eyes stared back, aware that the frustration of his reputation rippled and crackled through the crowd. Can’t escape the taint of being spooky even in a professionally strange town, the eye rolls and shoulder shrugs blatantly telegraphed. Yeah, buddy, we’ve heard this before-- a Kidney Kid? Where’d he go? pique rather than the reddening faces and outraged insults of more standard establishments.

Weird was respected, here. Well, no; weird wasn’t respected so much as a neural element: it was un-weird, a place or habit or state of being that categorized the weirdos as those who cared about being weird. Everyone else was just here.   

Scully was talking to Blockhead or Blockhead was talking to Scully; but either way they were both looking Mulder’s direction, her eyebrows scrunched, scrutinizing, and his gestures animated, illustrating. Possibly even annoyed and aggrieved. 

It was chilly for a Florida morning, another unusual-usual thing about this case. There’d be another burial-- three, on top of the one they flew down for; and he knew Scully would mosey back for this one (all of them) by her contemplative expression and relaxed shoulders. She’d liked it here, liked being the bloodhound this case, liked decoding the tricks that ran laps around his mind, liked the people and the memories, liked the place. He’d fly down, too. 

Doctor Blockhead was in the truck and almost situated behind the wheel when Mulder reached the group, an energetic contrast to the slumped over companion in his passenger seat. 

“What’s the matter with your friend?” 

This magician’s verbosity was his greatest trick, Mulder knew; and he prepared for an interesting parting observation. But all magic is best performed with misdirection; and, although Mulder was pleased to see that Scully was also thrown-- that she, too, did not expect the unexpected-- he was more agitated than amazed when the silent Enigma, in general too puzzled by the world to speak, slid a python grin across and down his mouth and replied with feral languor, “Probably something I ate.” 

And the car revved on and pounced smoothly forward, pulling almost too quickly away, as if it were repelled by the very town itself. 

Even the weird and fantastic had its limits.

“A Precursor for Punk Rock:” Dr Feelgood Guitarist and Co-founder Wilko Johnson Dies at 75

Wilko Johnson, the co-founder and former lead guitarist of Dr Feelgood, died Nov. 21.

Johnson was 75 and had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2012.

“This is the announcement we never wanted to make, and we do so, on behalf of Wilko's family and (his eponymous) band, with a very heavy heart: Wilko Johnson has died,” his management said in a statement.

Billy Bragg eulogized Johnson as “a precursor for punk rock in the U.K.” and an inspiration to many in his personal and professional lives.

“Not least in his determination to carry on regardless in the face of a terminal cancer diagnosis,” Bragg wrote on social media. “He did it right.”

Glen Matlock was one of the punks Johnson inspired.

“R.I.P, Rocker,” the former Sex Pistol wrote on social media.

Though Johnson left Dr Feelgood in 1977 after just four albums, “He wrote some great songs which we still play today,” the band wrote on its Facebook page.

“Our thoughts and condolences to his family at this sad time.”

Johnson in 1980 joined Ian Dury and the Blockheads - Dury posted a photo of his former bandmate backstage along with a black heart - and later embarked on a solo career with the Wilko Johnson Band.

In 2014, Johnson teamed with the Who’s Roger Daltrey for Going Back Home. The guitarist released his latest album, Blow Your Mind, in 2018.

“More than anything, Wilko wanted to be a poet,” Daltrey said in a statement.

“I was lucky to have known him and have him as a friend. His music lives on but there's no escaping the final curtain this time. So it's goodnight to Mad Carew, the uncompromising Bard of Canvey.”

[julio-viernes]

Por desavenencias y desencuentros con Lee Brilleaux, Wilko Johnson abandonó Feelgood en 1977 y creó The Solid Senders primero, para integrarse a continuación en los Blockheads de Ian Dury con los que grabó el LP "Laughter" en 1980.

Wilko era un gran admirador del anterior grupo de Dury, Kilburn and The High Roads y dijo que de no estar en Dr. Feelgood le gustaría tocar con Kilburn y su talentoso cantante y showman. No mucho tiempo después su deseo se haría realidad, pero ya a bordo de los Blockheads.

Sonic Old Man Yaoi/Old Woman Yuri Knockout

TWO pairings with the LEAST votes will be eliminated

Intros to each pairing below

Gerald Robotnik was Eggman's grandfather, introduced in Sonic Adventure 2. He made a false deal with Black Doom to create Shadow the Hedgehog in exchange for the Chaos Emeralds, making them both Shadow's dads. They definitely banged and had some kind of toxic mess of a relationship.

Grimer Wormtongue is a nasty little assistant to Ivo Robotnik in Fleetway Sonic the Comic. He is extremely devoted to his cruel master, which is for sure a sexual thing.

Ebony the Mystic Mog and Pyjamas the Psychic are two characters from Sonic the Comic who appear briefly in a Knuckles story, then become minor recurring characters that take in Super Sonic from the streets. They appear as old friends in their introduction and are implied to live together. If these two aren't married, it's only because Mobius is homophobic.

Blockhead Bill is Mighty's dad in Sonic the Comic. He is a very confused old man who convinces his posh "business associate" Society Max to assist him in taking down his nemesis the Crimson Cobra. This involves Max eating a magic mandrake root and becoming a giant dinosaur, which Bill rides around to cause destruction. idk about you but I'd only let someone do that to me if they were my funny little lover.

Mephiles the Dark and Iblis are two halves of the sun/time god Solaris, introduced in Sonic '06. Iblis is kind of just a big fire monster I think but Mephiles orchestrates this whole plot through the course of the game to re-merge with Iblis and form Solaris. Which sounds like some pretty twisted villainous gay devotion to me.

Ixis Naugus and Ian St. John are characters from the Archie Sonic the Hedgehog comics. Naugus is some kind of evil wizard who enlists the help of Geoffrey St. John, Ian's son, with plot things. I can't decipher Archie plots sorry. When Naugus first contacts Geoffrey, he expects him to be his father Ian. From @mischeva: "why are you wanting to talk to geoffrey’s dad? hm naugus? kinda….kinda interesting." Image also provided by mischeva, ty :)

Starline and Eggman were allowed in by popular vote, mostly by Eggman's qualifying age. Dr. Starline is a character from the IDW Sonic the Hedgehog comic. He is a fanboy and devotee of Eggman, restoring Eggman's lost memories and assisting him in his Metal Virus plot. Starline eventually plots to betray Eggman, as he believes himself smarter and more genre-savvy than his idol. He is of course wrong and Eggman beats the shit out of him and kills him to death. Starline is sort of like gen z's Grimer, kind of the tumblr sexyman dark academia Grimer, in that he's younger and prettier than Grimer, but he probably still wants to fuck that old man so bad.

So the reason Starlow's with us is because we just so happened to run into her in a museum?

For the record, I don't hate Starlow. Yes, she was a massive jerk in BIS. But the thing is, she did grow out of it. In 2 out of the 3 games she was in she did have moments proving she did care and respect Luigi, even if it was in a rather prickly way.

She's a decent jerk with a heart of gold character, who at least gets to actually show a nicer side (looking at you, Kersti) and has a personality that doesn't begin and end at being an expostion bot (Stuffwell).

Although I do respect the criticism that she overstayed her welcome as a character, being in 3 games and all. And I think they made the right call replacing her with Snoutlet in Brothership, especially since her arc is pretty much complete. There's really not much new that can be done with Starlow as a character.

The lack of handrails on this jet platform is really getting under my skin.

As someone who is on the autism spectrum, Luigi being more interested in doing his own thing glancing at the exhibits instead of listening to the tour guide like the rest of the group is the biggest mood ever.

Wait, did Starlow just confirm neurodivergent Weegee?!?!

It's so funny how the Pi'illo get saved from a living nightmare because of Luigi's need for naps and questionable handling of historical artifacts. (But then again, the blockhead did give him the treasure and allowed them to use the bed, so...)

Don't keep reminding me...

And here's a good Starlow moment. She actually has justifiable reasons for being a jerk for once. (After seeing too many characters be mean for no reason, this is a breath of fresh air.)

Dr. Snoozemore is a very weird character. He's the owner of the island, he's a scientist researching the Pi'illo and their sleep powers, he frequently goes missing for long periods with nobody knowing where he is... They give us all this buildup to him being a villain, only for him to just be an NPC/exposition bot.

Starlow & Toadworth: Peach, you should really stay away from the mysterious portal.

Peach: No. :)

I could make your rubber duck animate. Then you could bestow it with a name.

I've been looking for a new test subject regardless, simply let me know if you'd be interested upon your earliest convenience.

I have a few rubber duck related questions for you, Doctor Ratio, on behalf of your fanclub. Feel free to answer or ignore at your leisure.

Do you like ducks as much as rubber ducks? Why rubber ducks, specifically?

Out of all the rubber ducks you have, which little quacker is your favourite? What makes it stand out amongst all the rest? Does it have a name that befits its greatness?

And how would you react if someone hypothetically filled your office up with a few thousand of them as a prank while you at your meeting today? Hypothetically.

Well,

Another question related to the bouncy and floating artificial ducks...

A bit baffling I'm receiving a sudden influx in questions related to this, but I'll humor you since you structured your message quite well.

I appreciate looking at the real animals, but I don't find them as interesting and surprising as their petrol-based counterparts.

It intrigues me how they always have different bouncing properties; despite being produced mechanically and with a supposed rigorous quality control.

As for my favorite, I think the little fellow currently partaking in this nice bath with me is the current winner.

It doesn't have a name, because I wouldn't be so silly as to give bame to inanimate objects; but this one bounces back in the air the highest when I press it down under the water.

As for this 'prank', I wouldn't find it very funny. Rather, very much annoying. I like my office neat and tidy.

My name is Ruan Mei. When saying my name, please don't run the syllables together.

You don't have to listen hard to hear the gossip about me coming from the Genius Society — Mad scientist. I'll take it as a compliment.

I am Ruan Mei, number 81 of the Genius Society, one of the developers of the Simulated Universe.

My expertise lies in biology and in unrooting the origin of life itself. Life is... complex, isn't it? Many other organisms seem to have been blessed with such a gift, the gift of life, such as the plants, the animals and insects... and yet, it seems that life is wasted on humans.

We are in no means worthy of the beauty and intricacies of life, and unfortunately most of us find ourselves a state where we do not realize how lucky we are to live. Some of us even wish death upon ourselves... a foolish choice, to waste the gift of life, but I suppose those emotions do have worthy causes sometimes.

Life is far more difficult to create than it is to destroy.

[positivelybeastly]

Hi!! Is me, Stray! After many a trial and error, I now have an RP blog! Just letting you know I'm here and, uh, favorite music genres & favorite song headcanons for Hank?

Welcome to the roleplaying community! There's always a few ups and downs when you're first getting set up, especially if you've only ever set up the one Tumblr for personal use, but there's always room to learn, and I find that people tend to be generally pretty accommodating if you're as polite as you've been on Anon! If you have any questions about roleplay etiquette or the like, feel free to send another ask or just IM me.

As for favourite music genres and song headcanons for Hank, I generally think he's a pretty open minded fellow? There are a good few bands and types of music we know for certain that he enjoys.

Jocko Homo, by Devo.

Dead Man's Party, by Oingo Boingo.

Chopin's Nocturne.

60s rock! I can see him being a Creedence Clearwater Revival kinda guy.

Acis and Galatea!

The Rolling Stones!

Something you'll often see assumed of Hank is that just because he's a man of the arts, well read, and eloquent, is that he's some kind of music snob, that he only listens to opera, that he only enjoys classical, that he looks down on 'lesser' forms of music. And I honestly just don't believe that would be the case?

Like . . . here's the thing. Hank may talk fancy, but he is still, at best, a middle class farm boy from Illinois. If he has an accent, it's probably closest to a Chicago accent, if he hasn't trained his voice to do something entirely different - he does mention his voice has changed during his feline mutation to a baritone, so it's not out of the question. But he is not (or at least, he should not be) a hoity toity snooty asshole.

This is something even writers often get wrong about him - they assume that he's the smart character, ergo he must be the snooty, elitist character, which is something Ben Percy leans into, but it's not even just him, it's Paul Di Filippo in X-Men Unlimited vol. 2 #8, too. It becomes an asshole trait, and it's just. Not. Accurate.

Hank likes all kinds of music. In fact, I struggle to think of a kind he's outright stated he hates, though he's been around for 60 years, I'm sure someone can correct me. He's a curious fellow! He likes to explore! He'll consume any media, he quotes 1940s Superman comics, he watches Robin Hood movies with Wonder Man, why in god's name would he be a snob?

As for headcanon? I have tons! I often think, hmm, this feels like a song Hank would like, or a song that feels like a Hank song, when I listen to music, because. You know. Big blue guy's p much always on the brain.

I have a Spotify playlist that I occasionally add to, but currently on there is:

Is She Really Going Out With Him? by Joe Jackson - self deprecating, but also kind of a banger.

Carry on by fun - fun is an amazing band, and I definitely feel the lyricism and scale of their music would appeal to Hank.

Rain on Me by Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande - I don't know if Hank would listen to this, but it has his vibe.

Cells by They Might Be Giants - I'm sorry, but have you fucking heard a band that more encapsulates Hank's personality?

Dr. Wanna Do by Caro Emerald - my old Abigail RP partner used to use this as her ringtone for Hank. I think Hank likes some jazz.

Cure for Me by Aurora - again, not one I think Hank would listen to, but again, it feels like Hank to me.

Very Good Advice by Robert Smith - Hank totally digs new wave and the Cure, and literary references mixed in with that vibe? Totally.

Moonshine by Caravan Palace - this song leads into Lone Digger by the same band, which I put on Dark Beast's playlist, representing the continuity between them. It has the right energy.

There Ain't Half Been Some Clever Bastards by Ian Dury and the Blockheads - songs Hank would sing in the middle of the fight if it weren't full of swearing and comics were allowed to do that.

I Want You to Want Me by Cheap Trick - he does.

On Melancholy Hill by Gorillaz - this just has exactly the right energy.

I Will Dare by The Replacements - "How smart are you? / How dumb am I? / Don't count any of my advice. / Oh, meet me any place or anywhere or anytime / Now I don't care, meet me tonight / If you will dare, I might dare."

Anti-Hero by Taylor Swift - another one that doesn't feel quite like something Hank would listen to, but I think we can all relate to this song a little bit (does that make me a basic bitch? Maybe), and some of the lyrics are so awfully Hank. "I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror," like, fuck.

Turning Japanese by The Vapors - Iunno, I just think he'd like it. I often think that if I were gonna make an OG X-Factor movie, this is what would start the movie during a fight scene.

I would also like to give @brw a shoutout for their excellent Hank playlist, which introduced me to, among other things, Touch-Tone Telephone, which feels like Hank's theme song.

Oh, also, The Plastic Age by The Buggles. Hank absolutely loves prog-rock, you know he does. Oh, and showtunes! The man just will not stop singing, in the middle of fights or while being filmed for the nightly news, so he totally vibes with some Broadway. I'd also be lying if I said that Dust and Ashes doesn't feel like a New X-Men Grant Morrison Beast vibe all over. And Hank would love it! A musical based on War and Peace? Sign him the fuck up!
