Clone thought of the day: Why did we never get instances of clones who have elaborate and silly handshakes??

uhhhhhhhhhh emotion ocs. bcuz why not. going back to my cringe ship kid roots /lh

first is Excitement (she/her; Joy x Anxiety)! as her name suggests, she is very energetic and enthusiastic, always looking forward to the future and all the fun things it will bring.

hyperactive, overly excitable, and driven by adrenaline; will often act without thinking

anxiety is typically the one to reel her in and keep her in check

loves theme parks, thrill rides, field trips, and just generally getting to go out and have fun

i think her voiceclaim would be like. kristen schaal or something lmao. might change that but i think it fits

these guys are less developed but i like them so i'm sharing them anyways! here's Paranoia (he/they; Fear x Anxiety) and Restlessness (he/they; Ennui x Fear).

Paranoia specifically represents the feeling you get after watching a scary movie and beginning to think there's a monster in your house, leading you to check behind every door for things lurking and whatnot. (or maybe that's just a me thing..? idk SGDSKHSLKLSDH)

mouth can open VERY wide. gator boy

is it hair or antennae? the world may never know. theyre basically like what Fear has going on with his singular hair(?) strand

very jumpy and jittery, often has trouble sleeping; will most likely scream if disturbed in literally any situation

specializes in worst-case-scenario projections, which often turn out to be on the more outlandish end

transmasc!! hell yeah

Restlessness is physically incapable of sleeping, which tends to cause problems for the rest of the mind when he's in charge of the console. they tend to take over on days when Ennui, Fear, or Anxiety are the most active emotions.

paces a lot; leaves trails of glowing footsteps wherever he walks that get brighter the more he walks in one place (they do fade away eventually)

one of the tallest emotions, around Embarrassment's height; has a habit of constantly tilting their head back when standing, so their nose makes them even taller

hair coils and uncoils passively as if it has a mind of its own; will coil up tightly when he's stressed, and mostly straighten out when calm (a rare occasion)

Paranoia 🤝 Restlessness = the insomnia brothers

also transmasc. we love to see it

*you might already have seen Restlessness in this post by @ronniesbizzareblog!! go check it out it has great IO artwork

S'ria is finally realizing just how much Y'shtola is someone who expresses love in action rather than words.

It's almost Halloween so how bout a thought about cell phones and horror movies that's been rattling around my head like a dynamite studded tumbleweed for a while. I saw a post about a week ago about how cell phones should be used for otherworldly shenanigans in horror movies instead of just being 'that's inconvenient to my plot! *nerfs* it's dead/no service now!' While just nerfing cellphones is definitely the most boring option, I personally think that rather than creeping horror, cell phones work better as vehicles for creeping anxiety.

Let the movie start with our main character waking up and realizing their phone didn't charge. They only have like 30%. Something we've all done.

Let them plug it in so it can charge while they get ready. Let their cheep ass planned obsolescence walmart charger cable be shot. Let them riffle through their junk drawer while their coffee percolates. Let there be no spare cable. Let there be a bunch of post it notes behind their head saying things like Buy Milk and Get New Charger Cable and Call Mike (plumber) Back. (Let the milk one be the most visible. Let their milk be spoiled and let them ruin their latte.) Something we've all done.

Let them get on the subway, or bus, or whatever, pull out their phone, grimace at the charge and shove it back in their pocket. Let there be an outside shot of the subway rushing past. Let the next shot be only a stop or two later, showing them having pulled out their phone and browsing Instagram, or playing a matching game, or whatever. Let their phone tick down to 20%. Something we've all done.

Let them bum a charger for a few minutes from a friend. Let it tick back up from 15% to 21%. Let the little icon turn green again. Let the friend have to leave. Let them take the charger away with them.

Let the phone tick back down into the red again.

Let our main character get sent to somewhere. Let them be a little worried now. Not because anything's wrong yet but at the thought of spending 4 to 6 hours somewhere with no way to charge. Not because anything's wrong but because we're all so used to being connected all the time. We are always connected. So when we suddenly aren't– It's unsettling.

Unnatural.

Let them check their phone charge.

Let them check it again.

Let our main character get sent somewhere. Somewhere isolated. Not deep woods, not back woods, not creepy cabin. Just somewhere away. Somewhere alone.

Let them check their phone charge again.

Don't make it some mystical cell service dead zone. They get service.

Their phone is at 11%.

Let them get a text. From their friend. From their boyfriend. From their mother. From their boss from their roommate, from their ex, from their company IT guy. Let them text back can't talk now phone about to die

Let the 10% warning pop up just as things shift from vaguely unsettling to creepy.

To something is wrong.

It's a long ride. They're not scrolling through anything anymore.

Let them check their phone charge again.

Let them get where they're supposed to be for the day.

6%

Something is wrong.

Let them take a call from their boss. Let them consider not picking it up. Let them answer it. Let the call be pointless.

4%

Let them be alone. Let it be somewhere normal. Just a little bit out of the way. Let it be somewhere connected. In theory. Let them be alone. If their phone was charged they wouldn't even feel like they were.

Let them check their phone charge again.

Let there be no landline.

Let them raid a junk drawer. Let them find a charger. Let it be shot. (Let there be a note by the drawer. Get New Charger Cable.)

Let them check their phone charge again.

Don't just let their only lifeline die. Let the victim be the one to kill it.

sat up on the roof of his garage there was a blank stare fixed into joshua’s features, his eyes glazed over due to a cocktail of exhaustion and pills he’d taken in hopes they would have numbed the ache he’d had weighing on him since the night before. his mind lost on the woman who’d just broken up with him - the first relationship he’d taken seriously and it felt like karma for every girl he’d messed with in the past. it took a few echoes of his name before he’d snapped to, glancing towards the familiar voice of the girl who was climbing up the ladder he’d set up for himself. giving a half wave from where his forearms were propped over his knees. “so, you heard?” josh questioned what he would only assume could have driven her to join him. “normally i have to physically drag you up here.”
