The Adventures of Steve and Orphan

No. 52

Steve is on a mission! Spying isn’t his strong suit, but nevertheless he shall prevail! Nothing can stand against this mission! Nothing! Steve will rescue his Master or die trying! 

So, now that I have... Returned and everything, there should be less of a wait between each picture, since my goal is to finish this comic strip soon because I’ve got several others after this I also want to work on. (At the moment I’ve got one about the first L’manberg arc, a fantasy au where Izuku is a halfling/hobbit- the idea was so adorable, I had to- and an mha ascendance of a bookworm crossover- which may or may not have an actual plot depending. Yeah... It’s a lot.) We’ve currently got 8 pictures to go! The end is in sight! I might do the odd ‘Steve and Orphan shenanigans’ picture after this is over, but I don’t plan to continue it past the prison break arc. Well, I might... But it’s not likely.

full on feel like pjo tv s2 is not gonna hold up so they need to drag as much attention to the series as they can by using nico as a sock puppet w tsats2

im fully expecting the show to go the way of the movies. it doesnt help Sea of Monsters is almost unanimously the least favorite book of the first series. People frequently forget it even exists or what happens in it, especially more casual fans.

Heck, just look at how little fanfare the second season has gotten so far as compared to the build up to s1. I wouldn't be surprised if s2 totally flops. It would be a little funny.

btw

triumvirate rotation friday morning. it's a green ???? rotation, but instead of being on one of the 2 stages triumvirate hasn't been on (i was expecting bonerattle), it's on jammin salmon junction. this is the first time triumvirate will be on a stage it's been on before (besides the recent wahoo world big rerun)

nintendo just announced theyre going to host a salmon run tournament (the kind the tournament manager recently added support for) on january 13 (5pm-7:30pm japan time, which means it starts at midnight pacific time).

these salmon run tournaments just use whatever rotation is active at the time, so more significantly the announcement also tells us we'll be getting another green ???? rotation during that time, this time on sockeye with the triumvirate--this will be the first time the triumvirate will be available to fight more than once a month (ive gotten 999 every time it's shown up so ive been paying attention, since its release each season has had it in big run the first month, green random rotation the second month, and gold rotation the third month) (i guess this also deconfirms my theory that the next gold would be sockeye. are they going to do another bonerattle gold or do another repeat triumvirate first?)

if they don't adjust the typical 40-hour length of the rotations between now and then (which they do for big runs to make them always start at midnight utc) that means that rotation would start january 11 at 4pm pacific time, and the tournament will begin 8 hours before the rotation ends (which would give you plenty of time to rank up beforehand--apparently you enter at whatever rank you're at. idk if you go up or down but either way starting out higher up would give you an advantage. and 2ish hours isnt a lot of time to play)

After leaving Bridgette, stuck to a frozen pole... How Alejandro would react to Assistant Noah saying that he knows what Alejandro is doing, but Noah honestly doesn't care?... What if Noah only cares about how Alejandro unfairly treats Owen?

ASSISTANT NOAH: "None of the people on this show are exactly innocent angels either, so if the guys are dumb enough to fall for your charming tricks and the girls let themselves be swooned by you despite having boyfriends, then they deserve to lose." 🙄

i do think this instance would have add some in the way of later plot, what with london and the eel comment -- as established up until around germany, assistant noah has a neutral-positive view of alejandro:

(though ngl just considering his general mannerisms i am leaning more towards neutral -- character arcs and whatnot, neutral > negative > positive, so his ribbing comes off as uninterested as he is, more like general commentary on what's happening)

anyway its post-egypt and not much further and i don't think alejandro would expect, at this point, to react any different -- assuming that he would assume noah was coming up to rib him about the challenge again.

on noahs end, there is no real distaste for alejandro (....yet), emphasized by his seemingly unimpressed that no one catches onto alejandros scheming -- implying that noah sees it as something obvious.

^ tinged by bias by virtue of being on the crew and seeing behind-the-scenes clips and footage or not, to be so blatant about 'if they don't know, they deserve it' does mean that noah believes it to be something people should be catching onto (also worth mentioning that through him specifically telling owen, he offers more leeway for him in the face of this; favoritism.)

anyway, recap (for myself, mostly): alejandro's perception of noah up until this point is basically 'guy on the crew who ribbed me once' and didn't gloat about any of his strategies to avoid having a paper trail of his manipulation.

ergo -- this alters alejandro's pespective of noah drastically. because, again, noah is part of the crew and therefore not a threat to his game (and in fact could only really be an asset through this to alejandro), so for him to also be so outwardly comfortable with alejandro's manipulation signifies him as a kind of confidant role; someone alejandro can gloat to in small moments as long as he's careful about who's listening, because noah doesn't care.

as for how that changes london -- well, previously, noah would only take up that kind of confidant role post-london, once the cards were out on the table and alejandro goes with his flirting deflection thing. now though i do think it adds if he takes up the role earlier:

because, well. conflict. in alejandro's eyes, noah is taking on, again, that confidant role that he himself grows quite comfortable in, seeking reprieves from the competition that don't damage his game like how heather does suddenly insulting him behind his back and becoming very outwardly vitriolic and distasteful.

however in noahs eyes, alejandro is two-timing -- he'd probably assume that alejandro is aware (probably assuming he's watched previous seasons) that him and owen are friends, and thus assume he's trying to have his cake and eat it too, through being friendly with noah but being so vocal about his dislike of owen. they're a Package Deal, doesn't he know that?

anyway my point here is that it opens up a lot of opportunity for alejandro to be hurt/confused and retaliate in whatever ways, and for noah to assume he's just doubling-down and thus have it sour his opinion more. misunderstand is what i'm saying here.

.........or comedy of errors. both. both are good.

I think I'm going to get back into doing fanfics again for the Mario fandom, I love doing art and comics but I miss my writing, and I might wanna share that here too. If any of you have any ideas don't be shy haha.

But yeah I wanna do some more writing. Maybe diving into my art/writing works will help the mental battles I'm going through as of late, give myself sometime I guess. Escape to imagination land.

Mainly it'll do wonders to let more of my creativity out and try to do something for myself. Who knows.

I just know, you might see more than art on this acc from me :))

[moving-to-dreamwinged]

my dad came in and saw me on the couch (for the first time all day and i had literally just sat down for less than a minute when he came in) w heating pad and immediately goes "you have two options" (different chores to do) (as if i was like 10 years old and getting punished for something that i didnt even know i did wrong). what about secret third option where you treat me like an adult or i don't come home for winter next year. Lol
