Hypothetical Slime Rancher/Four Swords AU Notes

Add this onto the pile of creative sparks I've had that will probably die out after a short while. Unmedicated ADHD is a helluva detriment. If only my thoughts were drier, these fires might last longer.

+ All the Colors live on the same ranch in the Dry Reef. It started as a temporary cohabitation agreement that just became permanent as they all spent time around each other. (The original idea would have been to move out as more ranches were built.)

+ Vio was the first of the Colors to move there early on in the 7Zee Corporation's start-up, potentially one of the first residents of the Far Far Range in general, not that he kept up with that. His reasoning for moving out there is morally dubious, but slimes are fair game for the most part to experiment on. Unlike humans.

+ Shadow was the next to show up, and with him came his live-streaming gig. Seeing as there are no other streamers there, his viewer base dramatically increased as people back on Earth tuned in. 7Zee allows him to continue his activities so long as he does it safely, and doesn't give them a bad rep.

+ Red was next, though his reasoning for moving there is a mystery. He appeared on Shadow's streams quite a bit early on as they explored what the range had to offer together. They also teamed up a lot to pester Vio. The three of them were very close by the time Green and Blue showed up.

+ Speaking of Green and Blue, they showed up together, though they have no relation to each other. Green was simply seeking out adventure in a new frontier, whereas Blue's family sent him there in a bid to curve his anger issues. They quickly took over co-leader roles as it became apparent the other three were horribly danger-prone with no self-preservation instincts.

More notes below the break.

+ Vio and Red explored the Glass Desert together before Green and Blue arrived. Shadow opted out on account of the sun being too much, but ended up regretting it after Red told him about the wonky fire anomaly that would have been totally rad to catch on stream.

+ Each of the Colors cultivated their own areas on the ranch for their own uses, much like the actual game's ranch. Red uses the original land they were given for his slime endeavors, meanwhile Green grew a small pocket of woodland akin to the Moss Blanket to the left of that, and Blue built a port/dock just off the back end of that forest. Shadow carved a space into the mountain to the right of the ranch for his slime shenanigans, which connects haphazardly to Vio's lab area behind the house.

+ Green is in charge of managing the Ranch Exchange requests and, in rare instances, issuing their own. He keeps track of where the others are going, when they think they'll be back, and if he should head out to look for them (in the instance they got knocked out). Unspoken leader of the group. Manages their supplies.

+ Blue is the second in command, despite denying for the longest time that he cared at all what happened to the others. He rarely leaves the ranch, but instead manages the slime corals of everyone on top of his own (especially if they'll be gone for a bit). He keeps their supplies in order and keeps everyone from starving (it's a miracle Red, Vio, and Shadow lasted as long as they did on the diets they all had).

+ Red is the errand boy and general explorer of the range. He heads out multiple times a day to gather whatever supplies the ranch might be lacking in that they can't grow or otherwise acquire. He's also the one who places Vio's gadgets in the other parts of the map and runs back for the materials whenever they expire. He knows all the shortcuts and has upgraded his vac all the way.

+ Vio is the go-to for any questions about the range, seeing as he's been there the longest. He may or may not know more information than the Slimepedia at this point, though he's often distracted with his non-specific research to be very coherent. Doesn't leave the ranch often, but if he does, it's usually to explore the Glass Desert further. Next in charge after Green and Blue.

+ Shadow is often too wrapped up in his streaming stuff to help with anything specific on the ranch, but that's okay, at some point 7Zee started to pay him for all the (at the time) free promotion he garners. The others feature frequently on his streams and it usually gives them a chance to just relax. Except it's well known to his chat that approaching Vio might get Shadow chucked into the Slime Sea for "science purposes". It's happened 13 times now.

+ Overexposure to certain slimes has caused some oddities to occur in some of the Color's appearances. Red's eyes have permanent swirls in them due to how often boom slimes have exploded on him. Green's sclera are now a very unnaturally bright yellow that glow in the dark due to rad slime radiation. Vio's whole body occasionally glitches from quantum slime shenanigans, though he regulates it through means the others are not allowed to know (which involves his bracelets periodically stabbing him to stabilize his form), so now only his irises have the flickering effect. Lots of eye issues.

+ It wouldn't be a Casual-Praxis AU without ships, so just know this one I wanted to try my hand at a giant group relationship. Everyone is together. :) It didn't happen immediately, but it's a large part of why no one ever tried to move out of the cohabitation situation.

i always see raridash in response to the rarijack vs appledash discourse where people always like “let them be poly!!” which is like awesome and cool and stuff bc all the mane six are dating anyways but also.

i wanna see raridash in a vacuum. it doesn’t always have to involve applejack grrrgaagah!!!! don’t get me wrong, aj’s my fave, but she ain’t gotta be there!!! rarijack can just be about rarijack and not about resolving silly ship discourse with aj!!

anyways i love them they’re so silly

OK SO I LOOKED UP INFO ABOUT WHALES IN THE 1980S AND LOOK WHAT I FOUND

OPERATION BREAKTHROUGH

MENTIONS OF THE SOVIET UNION AND RADIO TAGS… ALSO ONE OF THE WHALES DIED AND ONE MARINE BIOLOGIST SAID “THAT’S NATURAL MORTALITY. THE ONES THAT MAKE MISTAKES, THE ONES THAT ARE WEAKER, ARE THE FIRST THAT ARE GOING TO DIE. AND THERE IS A REASON FOR THAT. THAT’S WHAT KEEPS THE POPULATION STRONG” NOW WHY DOES THAT SOUND LIKE SOMETHING VECNA WOULD SAY???

OPERATION BREAKTHROUGH WAS ABOUT SAVING 3 WHALES THAT WERE TRAPPED. IS IT POSSIBLE 3 CHARACTERS GET STUCK IN THE UPSIDE DOWN AND ONE OF THEM DIES???

AND NOW TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT ONE OF GREENPEACE’S SHIPS WAS CALLED TO HELP SAVE THE WHALES: RAINBOW WARRIOR. THE RAINBOW WARRIOR ON JULY 10, 1985 WAS BOMBED BY THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO STOP THE PROTESTING AGAINST NUCLEAR TESTING. BUT THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT WAS TRYING TO COVER UP THE BOMBING. WELL GUESS WHAT ARTICLE CAME OUT IN HAWKINS AROUND JULY 10, 1985 SINCE THE STARCOURT MALL INCIDENT HAPPENED A FEW DAYS BEFORE THEN!! AN ARTICLE ABOUT GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION!!!

SO WHO IS OUR RAINBOW WARRIOR IN SEASON 5???

Sora, who has murdered people and then laughed about it (maleficent, shan yu, floatsom and jetsum, sinking several ships of actual humans in the Caribbean though to be fair this one IS kh3) when grabbed by two people lightly on the shoulders: this is so unfriendly!

Quick question: are permanent calls still a thing here?

[ludwigoat909]

My fucking god finally someone said it.

I can't count the number of funny comedians having to step on a ship art or convos about ships and go "Uuuh not everything needs to be romantic they just good friends", as if we aren't just silly people having fun imagining characters in a relationship 😭😭

Shipping isn't trying to explain why a relationship is actually canon. It's not even trying to explain why it should or could be canon. Shipping is saying "wouldn't it be funny if these two fucked" and everyone needs to remember that.

A rainbow ship is what you called it. And you, you must have used every color in the box.

[billerak]

And so Femslash February comes to an end, and honestly, it was some great fun. Not all of it is my best work but I can live with that.

Of course, one final thank you to @ministarfruit for all of the prompts, they were varied and interesting to interpret.

This final day I tie together the MLP ones I spread around the month with AJ/RD/Rarity

Omg so many new things in this restock!

New vinyl in holographic RAINBOW!!! All colors catch the light in the full visible spectrum.

New design! Black with shimmering outlines I call it black smoke, it's my new favorite.

New size! 3 inches! We needed something in between 4.5 and 2 inches, didn't we?

New eyes! EVERY COLOR YOU COULD WANT! I went and picked up SO many rhinestones. There's even eyes for the babies!

New shipping! Now no longer double the sticker price! I added cheap shipping for US orders. Just $1.25 handling fee and I will do the rest. International shipping? Message me and we can work something out that isn't $20

New price!!! Lowest sharks are $0.50! Most expensive are only $8 and they include rhinestone eyes in the price. The new sticker material is less costly, and also slightly thinner, so I'm able to save and help you guys save too!

New discounts! Now you can get a mystery color that is still a quality sticker, or a mystery color with weirdness in the print, cut, or finish.

Sorry there's so many exclamation marks, I'm just really excited about these stickers. I'll go edit them out later. Please check out my pretty sharks and see if one catches your eye!
