JAY AS A HALF DJINN (DECENDANTS)

You know what would be cute? If Gigi Grant saw Desiree fight with Danny Phantom and went "Omighoul, hi Auntie!~"

Desiree isn't an actual Genie. Shes a ghost meant to resemble a genie. So I can't really see her being related to Gigi.

If anything I think in DP lore its more interesting to consider Desiree as the origin for the Western idea of what a genie is. She isnt a djinn or genie or anything like that, shes just a woman who had her whole life taken from her and in death has been cursed to only ever be able to grant the wishes of others but never her own. Tho she did at some point get locked in a genie lamp which I can only presume is cuz some previous enemy of hers wished it so.

Here’s the bad news: there never was another universal town square for science fiction. The community splintered across many different platforms. While that was a real loss, it wasn’t an unmitigated loss. Those communities incubated all kinds of writers and readers who found the SFRT inhospitable or overwhelming.

But the other reason the community never recohered is that we kept trusting other businesses to own those communities, and they kept betraying our trust. Prodigy wanted us to “stop talking to each other and start buying things.” Livejournal purged its queers.

The most successful successor to GEnie SFRT is Archive of Our Own (AO3), a freewheeling, welcoming, volunteer-run, nonprofit fanfic site with a gaggle of pro-bono lawyers and a deep bench of community specialists and technologists.

What to expect if Lore is your genie? (Make a wish, Servo+)

He grants all your wishes, in almost the way you meant them, but definitely in the most ridiculous way possible. He's not out to cause harm, or to be malicious, but he's absolutely going to be chaotic about it. Wishing for a million bucks inevitably spawns a herd of a million male deer, but each with a single dollar stuck to their antlers. They're all tame enough to let you take the dollar off but like. That's a lot of deer that you own now. Where are you going to keep them???

@thebreakfastgenie asked about Kelly and as it’s her birthday around about now I figured I had best oblige.

The most important thing about Kelly is that Kelly is no longer. Officially this is not because Kelly has vanished from the timeline or been shipped off to boarding school or whatever unfortunate fate befalls discontinued characters like Midge and Alan’s twins or Tutti (more on Tutti later — I have a post in my queue about her). Actually, Kelly has changed her name to Chelsea.

The second interesting thing about Kelly is that I have absolutely no idea how old she is meant to be. This is probably a related phenomenon to Skipper, who was introduced as an elementary school character and aged over the course of approximately 50 real life years to her mid to late teens, but Kelly has been a part of the line for a much shorter amount of time.

The earliest Kelly-branded doll that I am aware of is as flower girl in Midge and Alan’s wedding in 1991.

In this release, she looks to be of a comparable age to Todd, and though I’m no expert in assessing doll ages I’d assume she’s no younger than 5, but no older than 9 in this release.

However as you may or may not know, Todd is more likely to be presented as comparable in age to Kelly’s older sister (and Barbie and Skipper’s younger sister) Stacie. I assume this early Kelly is really the character who would eventually become Stacie.

The next release of Kelly was three years later in 1994 - as Barbie’s new “baby sister”.

Although described as a baby on the box, I think it’s fair to say that Kelly is depicted as a toddler, in the ballpark of 2 years old.

That is on track with a 1996 release, in which Kelly could be potty trained.

Kelly “really drinks and wets” in this release and given how excited she is to use the toilet, I think it’s fair to say she’s toddler aged here also.

Like many young ones though, it seems as though Kelly didn’t grasp the toilet right away as she is still gaining independence with the toilet in the 2004 release, Tinkle Time Kelly.

In 2005, Kelly is losing her first tooth in Tooth Time Kelly. This would be very unusual for a toddler so I assume here she is somewhere in the ballpark of 5 - 7 in age. Perhaps she was a late bloomer in Tinkle Time; or perhaps an early tooth-loser here.

These days Chelsea has left the name Kelly behind her and has taken to jetsetting. She is prepared for her flight with carry-on luggage, headphones and Netflix. (Nice tie-in, Mattel…)

so I got to thinking more abt T:21 cause when am i not

and decided to doodle some of his emotions!! As a tadpole when they first experienced the accident they could barely muster up to hold their true form so they'd always be atleast somewhat half melted and the slightest bit of too much emotion they'd be a literal puddle

but now they just melt like a wax statue but sometimes itll be too much

also because we never see T:21 talk regularly yall get his rambling (for some reason i thought of prismo during that)

[divorce]

advice for anyone going through their saturn return

take more lsd/mushrooms than you ever have in your life burn your teddy bear you got when you were 4 replace your teddy bear with tails doll 3am you should be good and this will actually skip it so you age an extra 30 years ahead of time

Since Taftah the Genie is known as a "Steam Engine" Genie, does she usually hang around in old fashioned trains?

Yep, she likes to sleep in them and use them as her home. Out of commission steam locomotives are easier for her settle in since, she doesn't have to worry about an active boiler.

This is one of her favorite locos to settle in.

Who do I have to email to get a second Van Helsing movie 20 years after the first

The internet came along. It was bigger. It was better. Once web browsers entered the picture, it was easier to use.

GEnie was text-only, accessed via a terminal program that used arcane text commands that were easier to use than, say, a text-based Usenet reader, but still too much for many. When GE finally released its first graphic interface, it was slow, buggy and crude.

But mostly, it the GEnie died because GE didn’t give a shit about GEnie. These were the Jack Welch years, when the company was getting out of the “doing things” business and converting itself into a doomed, cockamamie finance scam.

A mediocre, ultrawealthy sociopath found himself in charge of a once-in-history, all-encompassing town square, and he destroyed it, without even noticing.

Sound familiar?

Massive lore/plot info dump

The reason why I'm doing this is if I don't put this out I feel like the [REDACTED] in my head will get me

Just a bit of background

I like yuri and Shantae x Risky has high potential for great stories. And I've been sitting with this story for a while. I've red stories of this ship on AO3 all great but there was just something missing to me, the 3 examples stories on AO3 are (spoilers for these 3).

My precious treasure by CEproductions [finished]: the idea that Shantae and Risky have a secret relationship behind everyones back and the danger of being found out is thrilling. But it's short.

Rogue tides by MalkavianCake [finished]: the idea that both Shantae and Risky need each other for adventure and Shantae joining Risky's crew and maybe have a child together. It's also kinda short and doesn't have any fallow up.

Daughter of the morning by Hardman5509: Shantae carrying Risky's child and Shantae realising that she acctually has fallen for Risky is wonderful and all. But the artist hasn't [as of writing this post] not updated it since 2017, that kinda makes be pissed

And my mind having ADHD + autism and making up stories as it does. It started very small but than it spiraled into something that I just couldn't keep in my head anymore. So what's this long term AU about?

The full serues will be called "The princess and the pirate"

The first thing is that I wanted this AU to span over a long period of time and games [tho I have the tendence to switch from game to game and story to not get bored] and I know ½ Genie Hero is suppose to be a soft reboot but it has a lot of potential if it took place in the same time-line. Also I want to write Shantae having multiple "phases" in her relationship with Risky.

And now for a little synopsis. Shantae 1-3 (even tho 2 hasn't come out yet) I will not write that, maybe in the far of future I will write it as a doomed prequal like the Star wars epsidodes. But the important part is at the end of Revenge Shantae discovers something about herself.

6 months later, ½ way through Pirates Curse Shantae and Risky WILL do the dirty deed (R18+). And at the end of it Shantae and Risky decide to keep their relationship a secret from everyone.

Now after that Shantae and Risky will go on adventures behinds Shantae's friends back, the Genie With 2 Lifes (GW2L) volume. This wil have 13 arcs spread over 1 year. And it includes as Shantae visiting Risky's new island, going on a few raids with her, finding genie artifacts and of course the Valentine special and more. Shantae will also gain the new transformations seen in ½ Genie Hero and a original one. I want to write a reason how and why Shantae has those in the ½ Genie Hero game.

Now ½ Genie Hero (½gh). It will start near the couples anniversary but thanks to [REDACTED for spoilers] it's get interupted and their relationship goes public with all the effects that fallow. It will also have some changes, including 2 defectors, 1 "level" removed and replaced with 2-3 new locations, a new/original transformation, a little glimps about Risky's past and don't worry, Shantae will get her well deserved anniversary gift.

Now I didn't want for 7 Sirens to take immidiatley after ½ Genie hero. I wan to give the 2 some breathing room about that they don't need to hide anymore. This shorter volume the 2 will meet a silver haired hunter and give Shantae another original transformation. More pirate gear and [REDACTED]

7 Sirens is a bit of a road block for me both because I haven't played it in a long time nor finished it but I want to make sure that this adventure is just the coupme having a realy weird first vacation

Now there is a gap because I don't know if Wayforward is gonna make another/more Shantae game(s) in the future so I'll skip it for now and go the Future parts of my AU [again I tend to jump form arc to arc to not get bored]

Shantae Future: and of course I want Shantae and Risky to get married, but let's just say that the honeymoon got an unexpected extension and after that the couple will have to deal with a bun in the oven.

I even have some drafts of the next Generation. Including Shantae's ½ genie daughter and her friends going on their own adventures. Like at the age of 10 she sneaks out of the house to find a genie artifact or at the age of 13 going to my version of Africa
