so, i had an idea, and would like to hear toonblr's opinion on it! i like to design characters and sell adoptables on my other accounts, and i was curious if anyone wanted to see some toon adoptables?
the way that these would work is that id make a toon ingame with make-a-toon, then draw that character a reference sheet and sell it. but id feel bad just selling a drawing of a toon that anyone could make, so id give it both a "toon" and "furry" form! the toon form being much closer to the actual game, and the furry form having some more creative liberties. i made an example with my toon, baby bunny, below:
so youd basically be getting two characters in one! im thinking of selling these characters for around $30ish at least. im mainly making this post to see if anyone would be interested! please answer the poll:

im curious abt how you interpret eden and the creation sisters, considering we hardly know of those four at all! (by the way i really loved your contributions towards spacea and tiempas redesigns, that art looks really nice :D). what are their personalities like?
First of all thank u qvq
I really like designing,,, and for fun facts the original concept designs were actually just redraws of fanart I did for them like a couple years back. At first anyway jhbsjbhsbjhsj
---
Eden first, since they're rather simple.
In the Timebreak rp scene? There's a severe Lack of Kieran and Clear (we've had players of them before but they've disappeared or gone inactive/haven't been involved in the main au.)
How it goes is; they've managed to 'recreate' well- at least an Eden lookalike. Data and such wise, this Eden basically has to start from scratch with collection, save for whatever was still in the system. "Memories" for them are limited. Save for a friend's OC whom is also a MysFigure.
They're very friendly, in an unnerving way. They have such a peppy and happy attitude to the point where some can say it feels unnatural. Pokemon especially with good intiuition; (ex. Delpha), can see through this facade.
Until they can 'recreate' their partners, they're basically forced to solo-handle a lot of the MF main story stuff. Very charismatic, very good at manipulation.
Their disguise is as a Professor at Axis High, in which they use their position to monitor the students and alumni that are league leaders + have secure access to the Axis High Labs and Platinum component.
... The Puppet Master thing in this AU seems very complicated and probably would have its own post if anything jbhsjbhsbhjsbj.
They prefer to get literally any work or situation done with any means But fighting. The more compliant the person they need is, the easier it is. The less risk taken, the better.
(Sylveon, Lucario-Mega, Leavanny*, Blacephalon, Crobat, Silvally-???)
---
Now the Creation Sisters--- WELL. A lot of their (Spacea and Tiempa's) stuff is referenced from canon events, of course. But I also took a bite out of the Wispy Ruins Chest Quest + Lost Castle Lore and used THAT in a bunch of stuff.
Griselda is still a worm, just as in canon. That much is fair lol. Unlike her sisters, she can't really turn "human" again yet, but I do have a human design for her (based off her ingame sprites.)
The key difference here is that she is still PRESENT with Geara past Valor-- in her own way anyways. She's still doing whatever the fuck she wants. But this makes things... hm. Fun I suppose. She purposely interferes with stuff Spacea and Tiempa try to do-- mostly out of spite. She does a lot of things out of Spite, actually. Like adopting a new family because her old ones poisoned her. Normal Thursday, you know.
Speaking of that, she has her own Pokemon team... even though she's one herself. Her Mega is a Gengar, which is the evolved form of the Gastly from the Wispy Ruins Chest Quest, whom is her daughter who was turned into a Pokemon as punishment.
( GMega Gengar, Mimikyu, [GIRATINA], Beheeyem-Crest, Dusknoir-Crest, Spiritomb-Crest, Dragapult (LAUNCH THE CHILDREN.))
So yeah. She's still very snappy, even towards those she "seems" more compassionate about. On the Geara part, you're best bet is asking Geara's mun for that side of the story <3
... Now considering this place is called TIMEbreak, Tiempa has her hands full with Many things. The Stormchasers are certainly still a thing, and oh boy is shit going to go down later. We're still in like, late Chapter 9, or early Chapter 10 time wise I think. Their time will come soon.
Yeah, Spacea still exists too. Same vein of stuff. Those two pretty much have the same personalities as ingame, except now they're more pissed off with how much stuff has been going off the rails.
Tiempa is the quiet mean one. Spacea is the loud mean one. What more can I say without spoiling PLANS
(Chat they still don't know Jenner is alive again-)
#cerinterrogate#timebreak (rejuv)#eden (rejuv)#griselda (rejuv)#spacea and tiempa (rejuv)#cerirewritten#should be stated blah blah blah mostly headcanons made based of current source material whatever

hi excuse me i got carried away. these were originally tags but uhhhh it got. long. so into the reblog proper it goes. i ended up just fully describing my modern au.
for the record this is all off the top of my head so its not all entirely fleshed out
origins protags:
hiram amell would be in college to be like. a neurosurgeon and play warhammer with whatever time he can scrounge up. meets loghain there and they beef especially because hiram keeps finding stupid ridiculous ways to beat him when loghain is like. the most decorated player in their community. that guy is a warhammer 40k legend.
i feel like he doesnt have the time or energy to really get fast food enough to have a favorite, ironically. he lives off of tv dinners and the cheapest + strongest coffee he can find.
ive also been turning around the idea of modern hiram having been a foster child to duncan (this doesnt really come up here but i do imagine duncan being a military veteran) in his later teens which is what gives him the financial ability to actually pursue college. meets alistair that way who was also taken in as a foster and then officially adopted a year before hiram entered the picture. i dont know if i want duncan to die early on i want these boys to have a dad.....
anyway alistair and hiram are probably roommates while hirams in college? idk if alistair would be in college too. maybe try it bc of the expectation but end up having to drop out? hm.
gunnr brosca is younger daughter to her norwegian immigrant mother who came to america for a man only to be left when she became pregnant with rica. this began their mothers downward spiral into both poverty and alcohol and soon enough there was no chance of her getting home. so both rica and gunnr were born in america.
gunnr works under the table to not bring attention to their family. not always taking legal jobs. really just whatever she could get to keep them afloat despite the hole in their saving from their mothers drinking habits. gunnr feels a lot of disdain towards their mother for the situations she's put them in (put rica in especially) and the life they live
rica does sex work and hopes to marry rich so she can lift them out of poverty. gunnr hates that she has to. hates the men that leer at her sister. pretty 1-to-1 translation of ingame brosca origin.
a job gunnr takes goes wrong and lands her in hot water and her best bet is to take the money she has to her own name and get the hell out of dodge. she doesnt want to leave rica alone but rica encourages her to go.
and so she goes on over to britain. she takes less risky but still under the table jobs from there out because im deciding she somehow got in through criminal means and definitely does not have the papers or documentation to be there. god knows what their mother did with their birth certificates or social security numbers but i think neither gunnr or rica has ever seen hide nor hair of either document so like yknow. gunnr barely exists.
also im calling it that duncan is just not important to gunnr's whole story or existence. if hes there its only by proxy of alistair.
hey speaking of alistair. idk how they meet. something casual like outside a bar or through a friend of a friend of a friend when something like. breaks in the apartment he has w hiram and the landlord wont fix this and one of alistairs friends is like. i know a guy who knows a guy who knows this woman. ill put you in contact. and alistairs like. Ohhhkay. kinda shady but. alright.
she comes over to fix it. he gets himself a little crush almost immediately. shes neutral about him at first but when he kinda stumbles over himself to exchange numbers she teases him like. oh in case this breaks again huh? but is kinda begrudgingly endeared and goes along w it.
strangely enough in this modern au i think hiram and gunnr's influences on alistairs college career (equivalent to the king choice) are swapped from what theyd normally be. hiram would be resistant to alistair quitting college and kinda hammer in duncan's expectations (which i mean i keep mentioning but hes Not gonna like. disown them or something. like hed be disappointed, to varying degrees, but this is something that hangs over hiram like a specter. like it would impact things but hiram kind of makes mountains out of molehills over it. probably because he's felt severely unwanted his entire life and feels that any mistake is The End.) and put the weight on his own shoulders onto alistair in that moment.
(to expand more on that ^ i think hiram holds alistair to the same standards that he feels he himself has to conform to. and it scares him to see alistair consider Not going through the hell of college because it solidifies that as an Option. it give hiram an out, one with consequences, And it leaves him alone in his burden. they patch it up later down the road but needless to say things get Very Turbulent.)
meanwhile gunnr would be like hey listen. you dont need college to make something of yourself. if it sucks hit da bricks. and i think that ultimately wins out and him and hiram have a big falling out because of it and alistair goes to stay with gunnr in her shitty little apartment (? if it could be called that. debatable.)
im not rushing their romance here at this point bc the end of the world isnt upon them so. they have time to just be friends for a while while alistair's squishy feelings grow and gunnr finds herself more and more endeared to him. its absurd to her and she doesnt know What to do with that so she just. acts normal
messes with him a bit more maybe. yknow to do Something. maybe he starts working with her on some jobs. hes not thrilled about that part but work is work. and its not Bad stuff so. i just think hes a bit of a goody-two-shoes and doing things in a Not Super Allowed way makes him squirmy.
also i need zevran to be in here SOMEWHERE for hiram but i honest to god dont know. how. i have to think on it auuugh. they probably meet sometime during him and alistair's falling out. hiram needs someone there for him besides that old man he antagonizes at warhammer and duncan
ok so hiram and morrigan. i have actually thought about this previously and i have notes but i dont want to look at them right now. we're freeballing.
morrigan is a friend he made at a small school he went to with one of his previous foster families (he was shuffled through a lot of homes). she has an abusive mother and hiram becomes really her only friend. everyone else avoids her and if you listened to her shed say 'good' and that she liked it that way but ultimately she is Not immune to being lonely. and she finds genuine companionship in hiram.
soon enough hiram is shuffled out again but he goes through hell and highwater to make sure the two of them stay in touch.
well eventually around the time hiram is preparing to start college morrigan calls him and talks about her mother's pressure for her to have a child and that she thinks she'd actually like to but far Far away from flemeth. she doesnt want her mother having any part in the life of this child. she also asks if hiram would be the one to father it and hes a ride or die kind of friend so he agrees.
they meet up. the event is kinda awkward considering he is gay and neither are attracted in any way sexually to each other but they put in effort and thats sweet in its own right. afterward she tells him that she has to cut contact and that she plans to skip country. she cant tell him where and he knows this. he doesnt ask. he tells her to be safe and good luck. they hug and then she leaves.
a lot of impulsivity on display here but theyre both like 18 so. yknow. also shes lucky this actually Does take. neither of them had enough sex ed to have had it occur to them that one night Might not be enough to conceive a child.
also hiram does not mention this night to anyone for a very long time. no one knows he has a son and most of the time he forgets until he wakes up in a cold sweat with misplaces guilt over being an absent father. anyway
my baby my beloved. renard hawke. he's a farmer who's family had to move to the city after too many years of negative profit and debt.
the farm had been on a decline for a long time, but a few years after the death of malcom hawke, it finally caught up to them.
hawke family tragedy speedrun: bethany dies a bit after they settle into the city in a car crash. im not really sure what happens to carver. he doesnt die. joining the military seems likely. im also not sure what happens to leandra. her being the victim of a serial killer seems a Little bit unlikely but it could still happen. she could also grieve herself to death, the stress finally getting her.
renard is actually the person ive thought about the modern version of the least! so im not settled on a lot for him or his friends.
he ends up with fenris of course. he forms a lot of connections really quickly in the city. hawke in every universe is just a guy ppl gravitate towards. i think him and gunnr would get to be really good friends actually, and through her he'd eventually meet the rest of the origins gang. well besides morrigan, as previously stated shes off and away, and people connected only to hiram would be slower to meet renard until things were better between hiram and alistair. no da2 companion is left out here i just dont have concrete ideas as of right now.
what i DO know. is that he eventually goes missing (here lies the abyss). he doesnt tell anyone that he's going, where he's going. he leaves a six word note for fenris, gets in his car in the dead of night, and drives. the last person on record to have ever seen him is Islanil Lavellan, at a diner in the early hours of the morning. renard and islanil did not know each other prior to that meeting, but varric knows islanil as he works with varric's publishing company.
fenris will not stop until he finds hawke. it doesnt matter how cold the case becomes or how many try to dissuade him, he Will find hawke.
ok thats where im stopping right now because i need to brainstorm the da2 stuff more and i havent actually played inquisition with islanil yet. and i have some ideas for faustus mercar (rook) but i havent finished veilguard yet.
ATTENTION ALL DRAGON AGE PPL!!!
Describe any of your DA OC's as if they were regular modern people.
Favorite songs, fast food they would like, favorite movies etc.
#dragon age#aaaa also for the record. dragon age 2 Is technically the only dragon age ive finished as of yet. so. teehee#im getting there.#companions not mentioned doesnt mean they wouldnt be included in the au i just dont have anything in mind for them yet#i wrote stuff down abt leliana a few weeks ago but ehhhhh. idk#also i have yet to think of a good modern version of fenris' whole situation. im not always a fan of how that's modernized so im not sure#how to come at it.#but i like thinking about modern stuff. its fun

Subtext between siblings is a long traditions but so far, there haven't been a pay off for those. it's either put in some context rather dark (Arvis/Deidre) or for comedic sake. When it comes to the date simulator however, Intys always pull an excuse so that said characters aren't related in canon for the player to be able to S support them and to make all of it PG. Even though it's a japanese thing, even them have their limits and when there is actual incest it's often in R 18 game that are 100% self aware as it's portrayed as a bad thing but the protag would do it anyway, but there isn't much of those. It's either your adoptive sister or your ex stepsister, rarely your actual sister. after all, if Intys did not went "dragons are fine with inbreeding" but had to ressort to "see ? they don't have the same dad cause multivers" then were fine for at least a little moment; until the Fe 4 remake that is
i know, its just interesting (and important) to see intsys’s long history with incestuous subext. :)
even if they DO have an explicit incestuous relationship ingame, i dont think that the localizers would let that slide… unless its like integral to the plot and it was given a higher maturity rating at the very least.
we’ll see how the remake plays out ig. im definitely going to play it if the leaks were legit. im just going to try to keep away from the discourse :p

🍓 i MUST know more about solvej
-she was found as a very young child near windhelm and adopted by a couple of nord sailors, hence her extremely non argonian name (solvej salt-stung). and yeah she doesnt know who her birth parents were, none of the argonian dock workers at windhelm knew her.
-completely and utterly disconnected from the hist and culturally nordic. she has a lot of troubles interacting with other argonians and is bad at understanding them.
-she is warm blooded and heavily feathered, and seems to have a similar heightened cold resistance as nords do, though it might just be her trying really hard.
-shes about 6′8″ and like 350 lbs or something, built like a fucking bear and very physically intimidating.
-fascinated by the dwemer, and spent a lot of her time as a child and adolescent inspecting the ruins near the port towns in skyrim, morrowind and solstheim that she travelled to with her dads.
-was infected with lycanthropy while in solstheim doing just that. has no love for hircine, and her lycanthropy turned into “lycanthropy but worse” upon gaining his favor and taking his ring, only then experimenting on it and attempting to bind it to herself in order to cure her lycanthropy permanently. her lycanthropy is now possibly incurable, no known cures have worked.
-obsessed with the notion of shedding mortality and a disgust with her body, which begins to make sense upon the discovery that she is a dragon locked in a mortal body. shes spent most of her life trying to be as physically and magically powerful as possible, eventually deciding that she wants to basically become a living god.
-she got abducted by a dark brotherhood member who tried to induct her in a very similar way to ingame (gonna say its not astrid tho due to the likely canon being that the DB was NOT wiped out), and she was just like. no. and killed the brotherhood member and left.
-the only ingame faction she actually joins is the college of winterhold, and spent about 10 years with them.
-she joins up with the volkihar clan once shes well awakened into being dragonborn, and is tolerated by them in spite of being a werewolf due to her strategically leveraging her status to get her way. obviously harkon intends to kill her once she exhausts her usefulness (he does ingame no matter what anyway but especially since she isnt a vampire) but its okay because its the same on her end
-has a scarred area on her neck from serana biting her like a million times trying to give her vampirism but her lycanthropy is just that resilient.
-lost a lot of her self-taught mortal morality upon awakening to herself being dragonborn. only really respects power, but her view of power is at least one that says preying on the weak or disenfranchised is the worst weakness of all and deserves to be punished so like… thats okay i guess. shes still kind of evil tho.
-that being said, she holds onto a few very mortal traits even after starting to go a little power crazy. she loves her dads and also serana, though not really anyone else.
-once she “kills” alduin, she returns with a few dragons that have bent to her mastery and storms the palace of kings and kills ulfric. its not even like a fair fight or that great she just walks him, wrecks him, walks out, throws his head into the snow and uses her dragon aspect to wipe the floor with anyone who comes by.
-her end goal would be to declare herself high king, reunify and consolidate skyrim, and possibly declare war against the thalmor ft. dragons. she may attempt to also declare herself a living god. the reach is ceded to the forsworn and skyrim is attemptedly allied with hammerfell and other remaining free states, with the ultimate goal of returning focus and all efforts to wiping out the thalmor. (this probably doesnt happen because elder scrolls 6 will invalidate everything about this which is fair bc it involves an oc declaring herself high king/living god but im regarding everything that doesnt involve other countries or declaring war against the aldmeri dominion as canon for her for now)
-shes ridiculously overpowered by the end which makes me think shes going to die horribly if she doesnt calm down and manage to overcome the dragon dominance instinct.
#otacon#i dont really like making OCs ridiculously op but the lore kind of allows for this and thot it would be fun and shes almost definitely#gonna die in some ironic way or be absolutely defeated

Thinkin again about me Sympathetic Backstory Headcanons For McKraken. And how i ended up making Squisker his father figure and all.
So anyway today's Quality Cute Mental Image is babby squid playing in a lil paddling pool and splashing water happily at his new dad
Like imagine when he first finds the poor kid all cold and scared out lost in the human world, badly hurt from being attacked by human sailors and barely able to squeak out a cry for help. And then squisker runs lightning speed across dimensions and slams open the door of his mansion like HOLY FUCK GET EVERY DOCTOR IN THE COUNTRY! And stuff is all very panicky for the first few days while the poor kid recovers, and then has trouble trusting his rescuer and getting used to the yokai world. So this would be when he's started opening up a bit to the old man and trusting that he really is safe here, and then they have adorable scene of paddling pool summer fun family time. And that was when Squisker realized OH NO IVE GOTTEN ATTATCHED TO THIS CHILD, THERE'S NO GOING BAAAACK
And so began their cute fam antics, which would eventually end in perhaps that kid growing up to usurp his throne and lock him in ultra-prison BUT for a while it was cute along the way!! (Mckraken plz redeem u self, u big dummy)
IN SUMMARY: tiny son paddling pool
Also imagine it being literally impossible to stop hugging u son cos tentacle stickyness OH NO IT WAS A FIENDISH TRAP TO CHERISH HE FOREVER
Also imagine dressing up this lil wild squidboy in fancy squidman fashions and trying to teach him how to use all the formal cutlerys and he's just like *sticks his entire face in a tuna like eating a melon slice* and all the fancy guests are like "how uncouth!"
Also imagine babby squidboy being all shy of the scary fancymens and going everywhere clinging to squisker's sleeve like literally clamped onto it with his tentacles dangling like a purse, lol. PROTECT ME DAD
And imagine if the reason theyre identical palette swaps ingame is cos babby mckraken looked up to his papa so much? He subconciously kept the same fashion sense even after turning evil and claiming to hate the man who raised him. IM JUST SHOWING HOW MUCH I HATE HIM BY WEARING THIS BETTER THAN HE EVER COULD
Oh and i keep flip flopping on whether mckraken called him a dad, grandpa or uncle, but my headcanon is that they arent actually blood related, just sorta related in the sense of being the same species of rare yokai and squisker feeling a responsibility to mentor the young orphan because of it. Which is kinda dumb of me to change cos i know the only canon information we even have on Squisker is that he's a 'distant relative', but my brain just randomly went 'what if thats just squisker lying to explain the sudden appearance of this child so he'd be able to give an adopted son full inheritance rights on all his fancy politician mansion stuff?" Which would end up super ironic when it lets mckraken steal all his shit when he frames him for a bazillion crimes and tosses him into The Pear Wiggler For Temporally Displaced Dads. And then obv course "mckraken why are u waging war on humanity" "my dad is gone and he was 90% of my impulse control"
Anyway this is how cute headcanons can make a villain even more evil even at the same time im making him potentially redeemable, yknow? Having squisker just be a boring even eviller version of mckraken wouldnt add anything to mckraken's plot, having him be a 100% good guy who was betrayed by his son adds depth to both pf them!
Also i just!! Keep making everyone dads!! It keeps happening!!
*falls down a staircase of all dads*

@midnightcityx0x0 i like to read the third phase largely as self-defense more than like, an emotional outburst. he IS defintiely pissed off there but like.....hes got plenty of reason to be by that point yknow. you've already been whaling on him for several minutes at by then, and before that he doesn't seem especially committed to taking the fight seriously or making it a proper "fight", per se, it's more like him gently nudging you out like "teehee hey silly i can't let you up onto floor 5, you're not allowed up there you scamp" [this has a little more to do with my take on his actual Purpose and his dealings with pizzahead but im already working on a separate essaypost about that :y] but anyway peppino [real] is very much putting his full force into this, so phase 3 comes off as a "fuck, ok, ow, you're being mean and playing too rough, we're done here, get out" from fp.
you never fight to subdue him like that ingame! that was actually one of the first and main things i noticed and built his character from; once you're out of His Territory and you no longer have to be His Problem, he just sort of.... stops and lets you go. i know i'm risking reading a bit too hard into a general Game Mechanic Thing here, but they definitely Could have let you get a decisive finishing blow on him to make sure he doesn't get you again, and they just.... didn't. like you just leave. And He Lets You Go. you cannot convince me that shitty boarded door is actually physically doing anything to hold him back, but you still don't see him around again after that. for any purpose, let alone for glaring you down like literally every other boss does, so he doesn't seem to have a grudge about it either. [or at the very least not one that outweighs his commitment to staying at his post guarding floor 5]. but mostly i think he just doesn't give a shit.
like whatever the context here, it seems like he's just enjoying being along for the ride. lines up with his attitude for the fight pretty well 2 me.
saying all that to say! i don't think beastmode is inherently any more dangerous or violent than how he is normally, and it's not something that would just Happen; he'd be doing it on purpose--again most likely for his own or someone else's defense. he is also just generally very hard to piss off, so you'd have to deal with any other character around retaliating first before you get to him [namely peppino of course, since peppino gets pissed off extremely easily, and if there is violence to be had in dealing with a threat, pep will be the first one to take it.] kind of a tangential point but ive been wanting to say it so: i look at it like. if you spook fake pep, he will cower. if you spook peppino, he will kill you. if you are aggressive towards fake peppino, he will kill you. if you are aggressive towards peppino, he will cower [...at least until you piss him off but even then it's probably just some broken bones, fp will Kill You kill you [but frankly if you manage to push him to that point you probably deserve it]]
BUT all that notwistanding, @unexpectedbrickattack has some very fun thoughts on getting fake pep calmed down if he goes haywire that i've largely adopted into my own; heavily paraphrased tldr is that "gustavo would probably be the one to do it because he's used to having to calm down peppino and a lot of the same techniques work between the two". i imagine this idea also extends to gus' being good at taming beasts, so there is a lot for gus to work with in fp. but besides that peppino is just a really fucking bad mediator. being calm or controlled under stress is not exactly his strong suit. i don't think he'd be able to do much except hold fp back, but even then i do have to wonder if he wouldn't just be too stressed and panicked [both about fp himself and also about whatever's going on that fp off in the first place] to even do that.
FUNNILY ENOUGH one time i did try to entertain a scenario with fake pep going full uncontrolled/violent monster mode for whatever reason, because i thought it would be cool, and it ummmm was Not i made myself sad 😭. it was like this
he would cope with it Fucking Badly i think.
my secret hell about fp is that no one is more afraid of him than he is of himself. he genuinely, really and truly, desperately, does not want to hurt or scare people; he literally just wants to be carefree and silly and friends with everybody but the problem is that he IS a big strong freaky beast, and people who don't know better are going to be afraid of him for pretty much anything he does. he knows he is scary, and he does not know how not to be scary [or even if he CAN], and that, well....scares him.
so in the event he is causing Serious Actual Harm without really being cognizant of it, it would be a thing of like. the second he snaps back to normal or realizes what he's doing he would be mortified and immediately drop the situation and run off and hide under a rock for like a week a la "do not fucking come near me i am not safe" type of deal. he might eventually slink back in like "i am so so so so so so sorry ;n; ;n; are you mad at me ;_; ;-; do you still like me ;_; ;n; ", but i could also easily see it getting as bad as a thing where you'd have to go Intervene and forcibly pry him out of isolation yourself. either way, going forward he'd be really really really anxious/wary of anything even remotely resembling the circumstances where that happened, and probably just turn tail and run to not risk it happening again. lil bro could traumatize himself so bad....
fortunately! i can't see this ever actually happening for real, but more importantly, peppino and/or gus would eventually get worried and go looking for him+help him out if it did.
on the peppinos, postgame
i like to think the peppinos are pretty good friends now, but that certainly wasn't always the case. in fact i think they were both pretty terrified of eachother for a good couple months or so after the tower's fall. here's a moderately-sized ramble on how they went from one end to the other, with some extra thoughts on their current dynamic.
peppino's deal here is pretty obvious. being anxious and afraid of everything all the time is like his main character trait, but frankly he has every reason to be terrified of fake pep even aside from that, given the... you know. the everything. everything that went down in and around their fights, and just the nature of what fake peppino is-both as a general horror creature and also, specifically, as some kind of fucked up parody of himself that exists for reasons unknown to anybody. the only reason peppino let fp hang around in the first place was out of fear of pissing him off and getting attacked if he did try to take some action to Remove him. he tries his best not to invoke that, and stays far away from fake pep.
but fake peppino is also pretty terrified of peppino for the same reasons- he's really only ever seen peppino at his most violent, he's already gotten his ass kicked twice, and what's more he's acutely aware that he's on borrowed land and borrowed time out here. he only went to pizzeria in the first place out of instinct and because he didn't really have anywhere else to go without the tower, but he knows damn well that this is not his turf to be hanging out on, and that peppino has every right to defend it if he wants. he tries his best not to invoke that, and stays far away from peppino.
unfortunately, neither of them are perfect at that, and both of them are peppinos, so...
their paths do tend to cross on occasion. fortunately, neither of them actually want to fight again, so these run-ins never escalate to conflict, and end with them both scrambling away as quickly as they spot the other.
as it goes, time passes and they get more used to eachother at a distance; fake pep being naturally curious and poking around despite his reservations, and peppino sorta noticing fp is skittish whenever he ventures a bit past his usual boundaries. with that and the fact they've never actually had any violent encounters with eachother, peppino eventually catches the vibe that "oh maybe this thing isn't just here to menace me''. there is definitely still the aspect of "why the fuck is this freak here and what does it want" to deal with, so he doesn't drop his guard entirely, but he does go from ardent avoidance to more a... neutral observation. and it's a bit of a positive feedback loop; fp seeing peppino being less Reactive about him means he's less worried about being Retaliated Upon & thus a bit more venturous still. perhaps even enough to be seen Inside the restaurant...?
from here it doesn't take long for peppino to start seeing fake's, uh, utilitarian benefits. he eats the rats so it's free pest control, and noise seems really afraid of him too which is funny as hell, so pep just kinda starts going lik ''oh lmao ok maybe this is kind of cool''. for fake pep i think it was just... the first time peppino showed him any kind of thanks or congratulations for such. a moment of "??? does he like that?? does he like me?? do i not need to be afraid of this guy???" and so this is where fp starts trying to Deliberately interact with peppino a bit, and things just kinda grew from there.
i think it's neat because while peppino may have been the first to get over his fear and technically 'be accepting' of fp [shockingly???], it still takes the both of them because without fp trying to Initiate something, i really don't think pep would have ever gone out of his way to Give A Shit or achieve anything besides a mutual tolerance.
it is also so funny because like. i think peppino still is not seeing his end as anything more than a tolerance. sure, by now he knows fake pep likes him a lot, but as far as he's concerned he still only keeps fp around because he's '"'useful''", and because he thinks "ohhh i guess this guy is just never gonna leave ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i guess there is nothing i can do about this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯" when in reality it would take very little to drive fake pep off, and also, i need to reiterate, peppino has very much already beat fp's ass twice [when fp actually WAS trying to fight no less!], and could very much do it again if he actually wanted to. he just doesn't want to. he isn't actually any more stingy towards fp for all this, but it also means like, he's never going to give fp an actual "name" because that would be waaaaaay too direct an admission.
i wouldn't call peppino emotionally Stupid or immature, but i like to think he is often very....oblivious of his own actual state even when LITERALLY everyone else knows otherwise. fp knows bc peppino lets him get away A Lot Of Shit and even openly solicit affections, gus knows bc peppino actually defending fp and/or making an effort to work him with is an insane leap of faith/trust for this man to have made, every random customer who sees the two buddying around knows, hell even noise knows [and is terrified of it] bc why the hell would the most panicky man on earth casually have a freak fucking beast around in the first place? and nobody really tries to press peppino on this because he is stubborn. it's a good bit of denial, but it's also partially him thinking he's just being logical; "why would i be mean or try to chase him off if he's beneficial?" if you asked him whether he was gonna give fp a name he'd get all defensive and probably straight up say some shit like ''noo you know how they say if you name it you'll get attached'.' dumbass. you are already attached.
we all know peppino is a nervous animal but really i think they are both nervous animals. pep is a nervous prey animal who's mostly stressed out and afraid for like, self-preservation reasons; and fake pep is a nervous predator animal like a cheetah who needs constant companionship and reassurance or else he's Also going to be very stressed. and they're like weirdly good at covering this for eachother & so trust the other way more than they probably realize.
for peppino it's as simple as "if this guy was going to hurt me he already would have", perhaps with a bit of extra "if this big scary thing is on my side maybe i'll have less to worry about in general" [i mean this mostly in the powerful allies "oh he can kill things for me" sense, but i'd like to think there's a bit of a confidence boost in the sense of "if i can overcome/make peace with this maybe i can overcome other things too" somewhere in there as well]
for fake pep I think a lot of it is that peppino is like completely incapable of hiding his emotions. it makes him very easy to trust in that regard, and for a guy as Unsure about everything as fp is it's very good for him to have that kind of straightforwardness. there's never any guesswork with peppino; if you are doing something he doesn't like or makes him uncomfortable...you will know it. and for the same, on the rare chances he's showing approval, you can be sure that's genuine too.

ok ok so in an earlier reblog i mentioned i wanted to talk about my Personal Headcanons (emphasis on that bc not everyone will like them and thats Fine) about asura gender/sexual dimorphism/trans and gnc asura etc etc that whole topic and so im gonna gab about that a bit??
warning that i discuss genitalia a bit in this post but there’s no like.. physical descriptions... i’m discussing it from an angle about what the differences or similarities there’d be between asura you might consider dmab vs asura you might consider dfab
ok SO asura honestly have NEARLY NO sexual dimorphism ingame to be honest and that’s the foundation of a lot of my headcanons-- they have the same body types universally and share some faces + hairs across both models. to be frank i feel like some of the fem asura model faces being sssooo typically girly cutesy feminine (and in turn not masc model not having the same options there; as well as the fem model lacking more masc options) is a fault on anet’s behalf because idk they’re cowards who can only dance around the idea that asura might not have a rigid physical-based gender binary
im also gonna make a disclaimer also that these headcanons are firmly influenced by the fact that i am trans and when it comes to headcanoning how a race handles gender and how their bodies work, of course im going to err towards making them a combination of relateable but “wouldn’t this be a cool fantasy world where everything was ideal and easy”. (if you are cis you might not really ‘relate to’ or find these headcanons desireable in which case pls remember im not holdin a knife to ur throat demanding u accept these as ur own hcs. Do What You Want With Your Own Characters)
But Anyways
based on a loose combo of Some ingame stuff but also my own personal feelings, i do headcanon that asura have sorta ‘body archetypes’ that you would consider dmab and dfab asura, and they do tend to respectively use he or she pronouns as well as girl/boy descriptors for asura who assert that they’re one of those particular genders, but they’re Very loose about it and their anatomy differs a great deal from humans/other races, and are naturally more.. what we’d consider androgynous i guess??
i hc that asura essentially have both types of bits by default HOWEVER depending on how hormones have changed and influenced the growth of a particular asura, one set is highly physically underdeveloped, whereas the other functions as a working reproductive organ capable of producing offspring in whatever way.. both asura would have sets of milk patches, and lactation would be induced by chemical instinctive triggers in the brain which would primarily occur in the asura who birthed/carried the offspring But an asura considered ‘dmab’ would potentially be able to nurse young if specific circumstances set off these chemical instinctive triggers as well
going on HRT wouldn’t make the other set of genitalia fertile but would pick up the physical development where theirs naturally left off prior
because of the fact that they don’t really differ in this department, they’re extremely lax about the concept of a gender binary and don’t really enforce toxic gender roles as well as are very chill about asura being trans or gender nonconforming, and i can’t see them having stigma towards intersex asura either! additionally, asura cultural clothing in itself already tends to be unisex too so like i literally don’t even have to make a headcanon about that..... they just plain don’t dress differently like that is actually canon fgjhkd
we also know that even in humans, humans are very ambiguous as newborns and if asura are very ambiguous in general then asura parents would probably refer to their child as “they” until they hit some kinda weird first puberty or w/e? (or if they had their kid’s chromosomes tested out of curiosity or smth for name planning idek) and may default to calling their child he/she depending on how their child developed but if their society doesn’t have transphobia then they’d be p accepting if their kid asked to be called smth different instead! they might suggest alternative names that they had also thought of for their child
asura would also likely have technology related to transition (surgery, hrt etc) way way more advanced than irl humans do.. being both scientific and also not having a cultural stigma that discourages ppl from working on it, there would probably be a lot of prolific doctors-- many of which would be trans themselves-- who have achieved a lot in this field of research
since it’s not at all implausible that asura could use someone’s genetics to grow an extra organ based off their genetic code and then transplant it into them perfectly, i HC that trans asura who want to be able to have infants But W/ Genitalia That Doesn’t Make Them Dysphoric can get surgery where they have a dif set of gonads grown for em based off their genes and then get it swapped in and their body accepts it and they’re able to produce viable eggs/sperm just like anyone else! i’m not sure if this is wholly scientifically realistic but it’s a fantasy world so i can do what i want
aaaaaaaand that’s basically my headcanons?? asura don’t differ much physically at all and as a result are culturally lax about gender cus like if you’re all nearly the same ((which, humans are too but asura are to an even greater extent)) then like what’s the POINT about gettin uppity about stuff ya??
anyways thx for listenin, feel free to adopt these hcs or use em as insp if you want! (and again I Don’t Care What Anet Has Said About Their Genitalia Or Gender Binary Or Anything, Anet Is Wrong)

How did you come up with your OC's names ?
uhh with ned it was just the exact same name i used ingame (i almost always name characters really stupid things with the intent on eventually give them real names if i make a character out of them), and i intended to change it but a mutual encouraged me to keep it so it stuck
xikeel was me wanting a jel argonian name, but shes a very old oc and i named her at least a few years ago so murkmire wasnt out and there wasnt a lot of jel words available, so i just based it on other argonian names
solvej i just looked up like northern european names until i found one i liked, since she was adopted by nord parents
shap-mota was named recently with a substantial jel dictionary available. i wanted to give him sort of a non-imposing name, it translates to “frog hunter”, implying as a child he had a notable propensity for catching frogs. thought it was a cute name and liked him being called “frog” as a nickname
sleeps-in-dust was because i wanted them to have some tenuous connection to their uncertain parents, so they have the cyrodiilic translation of their probable jel birthname, but dont actually know how to say it in jel. im honestly not satisfied with their name but its what stuck and “dusty” as a nickname works well
