*baps @shamedump * it's the blood twins and yer littol oc Vermillion!

And for anyone interested in TSAMS and oc branch-offs, please check out their fic Vermillion! It's really cute and a nicer look on how the bloodmoon twins could have had their view changed! More doodles for this fic are absolutely incoming(and hopefully will get digitally colored lol) as I've got a bunch of little scenes I wanna draw out for little Millie and the fam they've made!!

I can't wait to see what happens next, as I have some theories on how things might play out and I'm eager to see how it all plays out!!

2003 Ferrari Enzo

haven't played since it was very first released into open early access.

I thought it was fun anyways, but with the addition of the catapult. Well. My god. That's fucking fun. Shoot yourself into the air and fly around.

Oh to be a little freaky bug guy being killed over and over by birds.

[istadris]

do you have any theories to what the plot for brothership will be?

I do!

So first of all, we know the plot will start in the Mushroom Kingdom while the brothers are living their life (and for Luigi that means getting in trouble)

Until a portal appears from their hand holding after Mario rescues Luigi.

Now, this is pure speculation based on the preview and a split second moment of the video, but I suspect that while Nintendo clearly doesn't want to rely too much on Illumination for inspiration, the movie might have inspired a scene in which Mario and Luigi try to hold on each other while going through the warp zone portal, but are separated, with Mario taking around his surroundings.

We know that the Shipshape will play a key role in the adventure: it's very likely it serves as the main hub, going from island to island and catapulting the Bros from its canon.

Since it seems to be the place where they meet their main allies (Connie and Snoutlet), it'll probably be their tutorial area : as such, I expect Mario to be temporarily separated from Luigi at first, so the player learns to control Mario alone, before he soon finds Luigi (and the player learns to control both brothers at once).

I don't expect an extremely convoluted plot, this is a Mario game after all. However, Mario & Luigi games are RPGs, which means a lot more dialogues and exploration than the mainline games. The M&L games also like to feature some twists here and there, and a rather clever writing despite their simplish stories.

So far, the bad guys seem to be the Extension Corps guys, the Gorumbla and that skull guy in a top hat, who seems in a position of power compared to the other three. Gorumbla seems to stand out in the theme compared to the others, so I expect he's more of a "you disturbed me in my nap and I'm ANGRY" boss than a real antagonist.

I expect a "Revolution" type of story : the electric-style habitants of the island live in harmony, until a group of jerks decide their way was the only one to follow and started bullying around the locals. Mario & Luigi get roped into the conflict as most of the habitants aren't fighters (and that by virtue of fighting back against bullies, they paint a big target on their back)

I also expect a bit of Technology vs Nature conflict, with the bad guys being all about technology over everything while the good guys are more nuanced and acknowledge the importance of nature in their life.

Top Hat Guy still puzzles me. What is his goal? He doesn't look like most of the electric-themed characters, what is his common goal with them?

Peach's appearance is very intriguing to me. Recently, Nintendo has given her more proactive roles (playable in the Rabbids RPGs, SMB Wonder, the main role in Showtime, an active role in the movie...) and I hope they keep with this trend of leaving behind her damsel in distress past.

The one time we see her in the trailer, she's with several local characters (all electric-coded, like Connie, Snoutlet and the Exension Corps) and Dorrie. A thing that stands out to me is that they all wear an orange piece of clothing, including Peach. It leads me to believe they're a crew or squad, and that Peach, once sucked into this place like the Bros, decided to stick with them while Mario and Luigi stuck on the Shipshape. Or maybe they're all part of the Shipshape crew, and rescued Peach (or the opposite). In any case, I expect Peach to have her own side of the adventure until she's needed with the Bros.

Is there a link with Connie's orange symbol on her hat? Although it looks more like a seed, to tie with her theme of tree-ship and growing plants.

Bowser is a full enigma so far. His moment in the trailer only shows him shooting at something, and the text on the website is ambivalent on whether he'll be a friend or a foe. I hope for the former, the Bros and Peach teaming up with Bowser against a common foe. But while the M&L games love to give Bowser depth and moments of allyship with our heroes (BIS, SS), they also insist on how Bowser is a bad guy after his own goals (DT, PiT).

And now for the places of the game they might visit :

First Island : with the red grass area to gently ease the player into a new place, the cliff providing the first environnemental challenges, and the first boss being a big brute with easy patterns to counter.

Obligatory Fire and/or Ice Island :

Flower/Nature Island, with one of the bosses being the monster plants

I'm running out of room for picture, but I suspect there will be a High Tech Island, with the big city (and probably one of the first confrontations with the main bad guys)

I don't know how accurate my predictions will be, we still don't have much; but this is how I see things going so far!

📢📖 HIGH POLYCOUNT POST

I'm shocked and sad that to learn that so many ppl (including some creators too) know very little about the high polycount issue.

@peacemaker-ic made a great post about how to decide if an object is high poly

And if you want to learn more about why extremely high-poly items are dangerous, read this post by @tommeraas-cc

Also never download extremely high poly cc, even if it looks nice in the preview pic. Maybe your ultra exensive gaming pc can handle it, but the game just won't.

NEVERMIND i think i'm just dumb. i needed to delete the stylus extension because it was messing with the tampermonkey one and causing this issue

okay i like the dashboardunfucker tampermonkey script a lot better than the stylus one i was using. my only complaint is the weirdly large amount of space on the top banner?? i don't like how it eats into the space on my screen and limits how much of posts i can see while just having empty space. websites with banners (or whatever it's called) at the top of the page that take up unnecessary space on my page is one of my biggest pet peeves lol

i don't want to get rid of the search bar or the icons, just shorten the empty space up there?

but i don't know html so idk how to do that :sob: someone help pls

What's this? A rare wednesday surprise adopt! I've been unusually productive this week and I have a lot of inspiration I want to get to before it fizzles out, so here's an extra adopt this week!

I saw a tweet like two days ago about a black man being casted in a Japanese stage play for an anime and someone said that they gave his locs look like a bishie boy haircut, and I thought that was really cute so I wanted to make something based on that- so here's a very princely, bishonen young man, complete with a rose and bishie sparkles! sidenote: one of these days I'll successfully make a trickster design that doesn't have the color pink... but that day is not today.

Oh yeah, I couldn't find the tweet that inspired me anymore but I DID find a reply by the actual actor! link if you wanna see it.

Sorry for the extra preamble today. As always, the special adopts are a more exensive but comes with more sprites, and if you're interested, you can find him in my ko-fi in the link below!

i think part of the reason iv e been so hesitant abt getting a cane also is bc subconsciously i know its probably not enough support as id need and if theres one thing i hate more than spending money on necessities its having to do it twice because i fucked up the first time. BUt also anything more likr, cant think of the word, supportive? than cane would be more exensive and cause people to Look at me even more. andinconvenient also. but also everything hurts so much and im so exhausted andi want to be able to do more things for longer without feeling like this

[eltanin0]

I haven't sent you cat pics with random arthistory facts included so far... so I need to change that.

Did you know that da Vincis vitruvian man is very interesting because its not just a study of the human body but also a representation of the ratiosystem which defined renessaince architecture. The idea at the time was that buildings should adhere to the human bodies ratio while following the style of antique/ classsicistic architecture. The bigman of architecture at the time was Andrea Palladio who studied roman architecture exensively and wrote books on the matter as well.

well that is quite interesting, a realm of knowledge that is completely foreign to me. funny how that picture is known by so so many people yet have no idea why it exists.

unfortunately im not knowledgeable enough in a subject to return the profound wisdom you bestowed upon me. maybe next time

I think I need to know everything you have on Lord Felix lol

everything…. OH WELL UR WISH IS MY COMMAND HAVE LORE DUMP‼️

Ik you asked for Felix himself but his lore tangles with another oc of mine, Kaiden, so you get a lil bit of her lore too ✨

(uh tw mentions of death? And torture? And brutal murder? Js mentions tho not going into detail)

Felix BonaDea was a nobleman from the house of BonaDea, known for their healing magic. His mother, Gianna BonaDea, was human, and his other mother, Amaryllis, was a fairy. Now, for most of Nialon (the country this all takes place in), it's quite normal for humans and non-humans to make bebehs (lmao), but this rule does not apply to nobility. He did get everything he could want, including gender surgery (bc its MY WORLD and i say TRANS RIGHTS), as Gianna (and her husband Antonio) was not heartless. She also allowed Amaryllis a small secluded estate for her to live in. Despite this, Felix was shunned in life, and had no chance at being anything of utmost importance to... anyone, really. Or so he thought.

One day, he was walking through town (glamoured with a trick Amaryllis taught him), and stopped by a tavern popular for guards and guards-in-training. He met someone there who would make him feel less lonely, and that person was Kaiden Evania (WOOP WOOP *sitcom applause*), another alienated child shunned because of her curse. They got to chatting, and clicked immediately, pulling a prank on some bullies (>:3). Once Felix heard she was forced to be here in the capital, Vespar, because of the draft, he resolved to learn how to fight, so that she wouldn't feel lonely, as he always had. (His family let him btw they thought it’s good he’s doing smth with his life)(Amarillys did NOT agree but Felix convinced her to let him go)

The years went by, and despite Felix's nobility, he and Kaiden made an unstoppable team. They had succeeded in 'The Hunt', an annual challenge hosted by a different noble House every year. Afterward, both attended the Aquamarine Ball, which was an event where graduating guards would learn of their placement, be in the city, or a House, or the outskirts of town. While at the Ball, Felix and Kaiden were approached by Lloyd Santhuff, the leader of the Azari—a warrior unit that only take the best of the best. Lloyd was interested in the pair, and offered the both of them a place there. They accepted, and after a couple more years of training, were full-fledged Azari. They were put under the (relatively loose) command of Saffron, another fairy.

They took the Oath, which bound their souls together and let them think as if they were mere exensions of each other, but Felix thought it was bullshit and just for show. The pair (mostly Felix, to be fair) made close friends with their unit, and all was well.

They were good. The best, even. But then on one mission investigating the Nikasa, Felix and Kaiden were captured. After a few weeks of torture, Felix was brutally murdered and Kaiden rescued.

~~~

That should have been the end, right? Wrong. Felix now lives in Kaiden's brain, as the oath they had taken worked a little too well considering Kaiden's Deathless curse and Felix's enhanced half-fairy magic. He tries his best to help Kaiden through her grief, but it's a hard battle.

~~~~

phew hope that sated ur curiosity! And a little ps: Felix HATESSSSS being called “Lord” or anything like that, he finds it pretentious.

I am a teenager who is scared of adulthood, do you have any advice on what I can do to live a happy life when I become an adult?

I don't think adulthood is all that bad tbh!!! take this with a slight grain of salt bcuz I don't remember most of my life especially before i was like nineteen or twenty but I think the level of independance and freedom makes up for the new responsibilites, and they don't all hit you at once

general advice I guess??

taxes honestly aren't that difficult outside of like specific situations like if you got a large sum of money from somewhere outside your work or if you switched jobs multiple times in the same year. it's all automated now and you probably wouldn't even have taxable income so the government would be giving YOU money for doing your taxes (that's what tax returns are I think) mostly jobs take taxes out of your paycheck so you dont have to worry about it that much. people are overdramatic about them imo (and I don't think you have to start doing your taxes the minute you turn eighteen it's like. whatever)

if you have a job or source of income (and it's okay if you dont) and you aren't doing a lot of things that require money its good to put MOST of your money away until you're an adult bcuz it will be useful then when you have more exenses. I think my sister got like 10k when she turned eighteen just from her own jobs/savings

opening a bank account is a good idea. maybe a credit union. also saving any documentation like your medical services card, birth certificate etc will make everything way easier in the long run bcuz replacing those is a Long process

most people really do just want to help you and support you tbh!!! don't be afraid to just show up somewhere (like a bank, new job etc) and ask questions especially if you're in your late teens or 20s bcuz you're still pretty young. nobody figures everything out on their own and you aren't going to have government agents outside your door if you dont have everything figured out the Second you turn eighteen

until you get yout own apartment or job probably most of this won't apply to you. legally you're still Kind of a dependant as long as you're living w/ your family and even if you go to college I think??? and then when you do that stuff there are resources out there to help you with everything

JOIN A CLUB like at your local library they have programs etc or a book club. like 80% of adult life is just social connections getting you a house or a job or being a reference and I learned that the hard way bcuz now I have literally zero social connections. maybe keep in contact with anyone from high school that you can still tolerate (or college if you decide to do that) or coworkers from your job. just try to know lots of people its good for your mental health and life. in general. humans are social and they help each other

don't take out financial loans (like those "$200 for $20" places). very bad idea. also in general don't ask people for money unless you really need it and are 100% sure you'll be able to pay them back. taking money from your own savings is okay

go to food banks if u need.... food. its expensive nowadays and food banks have food that's mostly okay. I think signing up is pretty easy (I haven't used one as an adult) probably less relevant until you move out unless u have food problems in your family but yknow. its fine. they literally don't care

keep receipts from any large donations to charity or perscription medication and you can use them for your tax returns to get your money back (at least in canada. fair warning im Not american) also business expenses if you're doing that for some reason

eat your fruits and veggies :)
