HELP ME!! HELPPP!!! HEEEELP!!!!!!

[malrightnao]

A party wouldn't have legs without it's guests...

Introducing Erica Claire, a long time childhood acquaintance to Failboat, and the first cast member (and potential murderer) in my upcoming fan game, Failboat Has Been Murdered! Coming sometime 2024 (hopefully)

[littengamer909]

Hey, hope you're well! I was wondering, in regards to your AU once more- do you see Erica having that same cautious/ anxious attitude from season 1 or already being more confrontational, temperamental like in season 2? Sorry if this is weirdly specific.

Not to worry, I actually have a bit of an explanation for this!

In her freshman and sophomore years, Erica seemed dead set on following in her mother's footsteps by going into nursing. However, she realized during the second semester of her sophomore year that she actually hated that career path, and is now undecided. It being a family tradition to go into medicine, her parents naturally disapproved, leading to her more temperamental/"it's not a phase mom" attitude.

In a broader sense, the characterizations are based more off of season 2 than season 1. Hope this answers your question!

A vault of Failtopia text posts

Finally cleared out my backlog of textpost memes, now the production cycle will finally return to its original form, which literally doesn’t make a difference to anyone except me.

hi,,, F for the fanfic ask game :3

F: Share a snippet from one of your favorite dialogue scenes you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.

while this isnt necessarily a fanfic, its still a dialogue scene, and i adore it

failtopia my beloved <33333

it just makes me cackle

[zekk0kat]

i hope you all know the reason why eribo (as a ship) exist is because i wanted a gf REALLY PATHETICALLY back in 2021 and shipping some dude’s miitopia ocs that interacted a couple of times was my saving grace

A post-finale Failtopia scene I pictured:

Every so often, Erica still has nightmares of the tines between seasons 1 and 2. Flashes of her old job as a cleric, the countless teammates who fell to enemies that almost ended her own life, them yelling, begging for a heal in spite of her being horribly drained of MP. Monsters swarm in from all sides of the battlefield, disembodied faces fly into the air, weapons clash and snap...

She wakes up in a cold sweat, hands gripping her own arms in place of her staff. She shudders, cursing to herself and wiping a few tears from her scarred cheeks. But as she puts on her glasses, she's pulled back by reality by a crack in her room's door. Outside, Shrimp practices a new song while Big Bill sits editing the young pop star's videos. Failboat is wearily telling Chat off for firing a shell through the inn wall. Chi's mixing various chemicals with bendy straws while Friend sits by with a healing prayer ready in case something blows up. Mar and Orion are talking about everything and nothing.

The female warrior sighs in relief. But then, she feels a light touch on her shoulder. Still half-asleep, Bo mumbles, asking if something's wrong. Looking back and removing her glasses, Erica shakes her head, hugging the undead before pulling the sheets over once again.

Doing as OP wished for

library outing (please reblog, this took hours)

[rosetheocto]

Hey! Hope you're doing well. Mind sharing your takes on Simple Bob?

Thanks for the ask!! Bob’s basically the CEO of Daniel’s Miis having a bigger lore than just being props for a Mario Kart game and I think he NEEDS more respect for that alone lol

How I Feel About This Character

I LOVE HIM!!!! There’s so much I wanna know about him,, especially his past with Punnyatta!! Dude’s gone through a similar thing to Erica and I think that should be explored more… I love you Demon Hunters/Mario Kart Mii Making it’s a shame that only like 5 people are aware of its existence (and its status as Failtopia’s Prequel)

His whole arc in S1 where he learns to become less simple and develops a personality of his own is just. I love it. it’s so good!!! (S2 post game ruins it but S2 Post Game Doesn’t Exist) also shoutouts to Bob canonically being a flirt fr, looking at S1 he’s got a surprising amount of charisma :0

All The People I Ship Romantically With This Character

I ship him with both Smuk and Rose!! Their dynamic is so healthy to me and they’re all just cute together ngl,, I have more thoughts on them but it’s nothing I can really put to words rn lol

My Non-Romantic OTP For This Character

Erica and Bob, in S1 at least. I like the idea that before Erica’s multiclass Bob gave her a tip or two for how to use a sword! I think that especially after S2 they would be close! I also think that Bob and Punnyatta’s dynamic would be SO FUN to see in Miitopia’s style!! I’d kill for more lore on Bob’s life before TFFM, I hope someday we can get some more info on his first party…

and while this isn’t really an OTP, but I think Bob’s dynamic with C!Fail is so interesting, they were the original duo, but by the end of the series Bob seemed more than willing to leave him under the bus when C!Fail needed his help!

My Unpopular Opinion About This Character

I don’t really have any unpopular opinion on him, unless not liking his return in post game counts! He could’ve worked! Just… not like that

One Thing I Wished Would Happen/Had Happened With This Character In Canon

BOB HATING MAR!! The very few times we’ve seen them interact in Post Game they seemed cool with each other, and that feels wrong to me! With the lore we have now, we know that Mar was the one who killed Punnyatta instead of Hank. He’d hate both Mar and Floop I think, and probably held a bit of resentment towards C!Fail, Chi, and Erica for being so willing to be on a party like this while knowing and experiencing first hand all the awful things Mar did to the world!

[sailorstarfishi]

thinking thinking thinking! friend being a guiding light to erica when she was a cleric, even if she didn't know. their gentle hands guiding hers to bless those around her, total benevolence being the main goal.

thinking about how her reclass would have spurred something in friend. her rage, absolute fury at the injustices of the world making him reconsider. does he truly have to take everything as it was given to him? can he, too, rebel for his freedom?

(lee does not help this cause. take this as you will.)

[littengamer909]

Hi, hope you've been having a good day! Any more general Failtopia headcanons you'd like to share?

A lot of the characters are nonhuman, but some of them are... well, less human than you'd think. Failboat and Friend are prime examples.

There's an ongoing bet to find out if C!Fail is straight or not. The betting pool is sitting at 600 gold. It has yet to come to a conclusion.

If she had a phone, Shrimp would be an absolute GOD at Project Sekai (she can full combo Intense Vocie of Hatsune Miku on Master). She introduces vocaloid to Big Bill and he gets really into it, especially listening to Deco*27.

Deko is a true crime enjoyer.

Chi occasionally plans date nights with Lanc. These range from a nice dinner to a board game night to a bank robbery. Lanc is 100% okay with all of this.

Erica just... refuses to get her glasses fixed. She'd rather squint at a sign in the distance than get a new prescription.

Do NOT trust ANY of these people behind the wheel of a car. They're all horrible drivers in different ways - Chi goes consistently 10 over the speed limit, Erica gets barely-contained road rage, Orion refuses to use directions, you get the idea.

A league of Failtopia text posts

I mentioned last time that I had some new plans for my textpost series, and then I completely forgot about them for three weeks. Will probably happen eventually, though!
