#kat lore ok

[blacktiespy]

[He sighs, in the way one might when facing an unruly child or impatient at a red light. He isn't so much mad at Hunter as he is tired of the whole situation. He pries the knife off of his neck and steps back, almost casually, and turns away from her temporarily to pull out a bottle of cognac. He pours himself a glass, and leaves an empty glass and the bottle on the table.]

"Then it's worse than I thought."

[ He's definitely more deflated when he's present, in front of her - not hiding. Still, there is a certain presence to the man, almost ghastly. He wears a black mask, and a stuffy old suit - that much wasn't new, but something about the way his face moved under the mask was almost disturbing - like his jaw was loose, or something of the sort. He sighs. He turns his back often..]

"Katherine was worried about her sister - for good reason, of course - she's very talented.. but, as I presume you've figured out, she's also.. quite overconfident."

[He looks through cabinets, pulling out stacks of newspapers, and a few pictures - some of Kat, herself, some of other seemingly insignificant things.. at some point, he had lit a cigarette.]

"They were both rather jealous... "

[He smooths out a newspaper - a few years ago, when Kat was in her late teens..]

PROVO PENNYWEIGHTER PRESUMED DEAD AFTER FACTORY CATCHES FIRE.

"But, of course, our merlebleu was the first to try something. We had to split after that, and.. for a long time, I had let Katherine think that she had left me to die."

[The black mask is lit up by the red ember of the cigarette.]

"I only tried to contact her recently. After a few of my previous teammates pulled something that's been keeping me from respawning normally.. presumably, a test run before they do the same to her - an eye for an eye, something or other.."

hunter walks along the mine's corridor, small flashlight in hand. her boots crunch the gravel under them softly as her fingertips slowly drag along the dusty leftside wall. silent except for her footsteps, and the quiet, repeated chant under her breath of the instructions. she stops in her tracks and falls silent once she feels a shift in the rocks. the slightest imperfection.

clicking on the flashlight, she finds the outline of the false wall. just like she said. she presses on it. it gives and cracks ajar. unsheathing her knife, she pushes the door open and shines the light through.

- @thebubblybutcher

[As soon as the door opens, a few things happen - first, what little light was originally in the room shuts off, extinguished. Then, quiet - but not quiet enough, she hears footsteps, just beyond her light, then the sound of something above creaking with someone's weight. Then, finally, the dim lights come on again - and the door closes to snap the rope holding up a net.]

[Someone's trying to give himself a head start.]

[The space itself is strange - curtained mirrors replace every wall. A makeshift desk with newspaper clippings and maps is pressed against one, a bed on the other.. far too extravagant, however, for the rest. A few stolen paintings on the walls echo Kat's style - but is far more organized. It's clear where she got it from. She can hear him in an adjacent room.. one wall must be false.]

[no-shxme]

GRAHH If I could rewrite talon I would make his story focus more on his exploitation bc that's literally what's happening to him. ok I know that they currently frame it like he was adopted and that went generally swell, but his color story focuses more on his pursuit of perfection (and filling in Kat's lore) so none of his lore really focuses on his EXPLOITATION which is crazy because talon actually serves SUCH a good perspective/critique bc hes not like any other exploited Noxian (eg: rell, briar) bc he's STILL stuck under Noxus's thumb. rell and briar focus more on the after, the revenge, the freedom. in rells case they dig in just a little bit but it's more focused on the horrible things that were done to her so it's very easy to see how she was abused. but I don't know why riot wouldn't focus on the exploitative aspect of talon bc it's SO GOOD thematic-wise and offers a lot of depth and subtle critique that is more than just 'they experimented on them so of course they're bad.' (and anyway rell [and Kayn, another exploited child] already reject Noxus.)

talon is literally born in the heart of Noxus, indoctrinated to Noxus from the begining, 'adopted' but ultimately used by his powerful father, believes only in being perfect bc that's all that matters in Noxus: being the best in whatever way suits you best. he is everything wrong with noxus as a whole, he's been eaten by the Noxian war machine. if riot wanted they could easily use talon to offer a scathing critique of Noxian culture that's more than just surface level 'abusing kids is bad.' like sure 'he was adopted out of poverty. this is a good thing.' but let's look a little deeper at the nature of exploitation and the unique pov talon offers by not being free of it yet.

sorry I'm overcome.

[johnnysslaughter]

hi! i’m sorry if i’m not the anon you meant but i just wanted to say that i really like your take on johnny. matt dillon for a face claim was honestly such a good choice because they look so alike and in a lot of dillon’s films there’s some clips that’d be perfect for johnny. also the really cool leland blog using matt dillon for a face claim too made me think of leland eventually turning into johnny like in that one verse. the massive differences in the roles that matt’s played and the difference between leland and johnny but at the end of the day it’s the same actor and in that one verse johnny makes leland think that he isn’t different from him at all. i just think it’s cool

but i hope you’re ok and i really hope you still writing because you capture how scary johnny is so well. just how incredibly messed up in the head he is

i hope you enjoy rush week when it comes out

i forgot this part but you need to listen to the misfits because they fit johnny so well. they’re a 1970s punk band that sing about cannibalism sometimes

you & all the other cute anons are exactly what i meant... i wanna adopt you, you guys are adorable & i want to wrap you up in a nice warm blankie & protect you from the world. this is me rn below btw if you care --

im really glad that you like what i'm doing with him! listen, when the gun interactive team said that johnny was made based off matt, the way that i nearly lost my mind, i'm telling you what!! should have been there that day, it was a very affirming day. WEBFKJEB but yes exactly!! kels and i using matt dillon in respective movies to capture our characters separately in roles that fit the character a bit more than others -- us also knowing they do become one in the same, different sides of the same coin, much like in some of the Dire Verses. that was actually a complete accident to happen -- but one that could be a lot of symbolism, knowing too that johnny & leland are meant to be parallels of a sort, especially in those verses.

dont you worry, sweet anon, i am still writing. i've went through some health spells & been going through a rough time mentally the last couple days ( still going through it ) but i will be okay. <3 Thank you tremendously for this compliment of a message!! I am incredibly honored to have received such a message, honestly!

I hope you enjoy rush week as well... i can't wait to dig up more Lore from it & make it our own!

and yesss the misfits are such a good band! i do listen to them & i have them scattered in some playlists pertaining to johnny. i highly recommend Koffin Kats !! they're modern, but they have such good 70s/80s/ retro punk rockabilly feel -- they sung my pinned song, which is about t/cm, & have a lot more "morbid" songs within the similar nature. if you have any music reccs, i'd love to take a listen! i love when people share some music that reminds them of me or my characters, etc! or hell, even what has been stuck in your head lately. i always love sharing things like that!

[visionthefox]

I think sometimes the VAs work when sick, but there are times where they are absent for a whole week just like when moon went missing (I think last year) and it was because he was sick, or more recently Davis and Kat moved and they didn’t appear that’s why foxy or puppet showed up.

But I do agree I wish they could go back like the beginning where they would post lore videos on the weekends and for special occasions like the first Halloween takeover like they are doing it right now. I miss them playing more and just having fun I also wish they could finish a game like little nightmares, idk that’s wishful thinking, but also don’t try and speed run the game, play it like it’s the first time, or for games like cult of the lamb have a new save file start from the beginning so viewers get interested on it, just don’t jump on it and play it otherwise people won’t know what’s going on (I speak from experience, when watching their gameplays).

Ive bought games from the ones they played just to see how it ends or if the game is not available due to it being VR I see another YouTuber playing XD

yeye is kinda of sad they only get a "day off" is when sick, tho maybe we are assuming too much- since only time I knew of Moon's VA- sorry forgot the name- being sick and still working is been these past days - but I cant even say if its true! but the constant posting is something I dont like- one thing is a gameplay, ok is easy you just and play- but lore wise? knowing how that affects the fandom? mmh trickyyy I just wish they had time - just- time - idk get to choose and see if its a good idea or not - also these lines

idk if they meant this- but is indeed a fact too - many have been saying how forced things feel- im sure the discords had to mention this enough times to be mentioned on a video aside with the "harrasment of people because of death characters" (this I know is real) just- aah give em time to cook- and listen I dont see the gameplays unless is horror or like in the villaints takeovers! yet still I rather know we will have 5 games and 1 lore to feel happy knowing is not rushed nor stressing for them if if thats the case ! but yea- let me know what yall think! im too crazy? haha

[labselkie]

OK updating this bcuz i’ve got time and i have an idea

tldr for the last ask i’m on my “alchemax as a pokemon evil team” bs again

SO first to start out their motive overall? just science. it can be shifted in specifics for which region (my main idea was paldea, fisk wants to go to the past or future blah blah blah) but that’s the basics

they’d have a segment like other evil teams before the league, infiltrating the building and such (comparing this to the team flare segments of xy!)

there? other than fighting scientists you’d find the admins: scorpion, tombstone, prowler, and someone else

their teams r as follows, w the aces being Drapion, Aggron, and Sneasler

they may be intimidating teams, but dw! they’re not the highest levels, and are split up a bunch

just bring a fighting nd fairy type and you’re good

then the big boss. he’s got pokemon around the levels of the elite 4! big bulky sets w a bastiodon ace because that’s what he looks like to me

ok he gets an Empoleon too maybe replacing the kingambit but kat im gonna get u /j

you beat him, get the master ball, uncover some lore, catch the legendary, become champion!

but you can go back, you can dig so much deeper based on a hint you found. you and your rival return, and you can fight the person behind it all

BANG liv team AGAIN! (not in order cuz pelipper would be first in the double battle)

she’d get a cutscene in my mind… and there would definitely be a lot of yapping.

her team is at the level of the champion, maybe 65-70 all around

beat her blah blah blah save the day whatever. that’s it that’s all i wanted to say

but also hypothetically what if she took an interest in this lady studying to be the next pkmn professor i’m just sayin

[discordantwritings]

Ok so I adore hearing people talk about their oc! It’s always so much fun!!!! And you have a whole crew!

Teume seems like such a certified cutie! I love his color scheme and the hair?! Flashy af! And I love the uneven tails of thresher sharks! And Cecilia’s design is so cool too!!!

But omg the lore-lore fruit sounds so fun!!! Might I ask how the stories come to life? She sounds like such a cool captain! I’m so curious about how they all became a crew! And Altair sounds like such a fun character (I always have a soft spot for artists)

If you’re feeling up to it could we hear about the backstories? I’m very curious! They’re such a unique bunch ✨

Thank you sm!!! And thank you for all the questions! I just gave all the detailed stuff about Cecilia in my last post so I’ll talk some about Kat!

Katarina comes from a rich family and is a bit of a spoiled only child. After the death of her parents she became obsessed with the idea of legacy- that if people remember your name and your stories that you are never truly dead. With her inheritance money she could have gotten the best ship and the best crew money could buy- but that doesn’t make for a good story. So she started off with ship constructed by a fishman who got roped into being her first crew mate. Teume had no desire to be a first mate which worked out when they crash landed onto the island that Cecilia was on- taking her in as the next member. Altair came into the picture when the three of them quickly realized none of them knew how to properly read a map and some of that inheritance money went to bribing Altair, a seasoned navigator, to take a chance on their rag tag little group.

As for the Lore-Lore fruit- it is a paramecia type fruit that allows the user to bring a story they have written to life. Each story can only be used once and it’s power is directly correlated to how detailed and well written the story is. How long the story can stay going depends on the users stamina- the more complex and long one is the harder it is to keep going. The words also have to be physically written down so any damage to Katarina’s journal is a blow to her abilities.

When a story is activated she can channel characters and/or setting- calling allies to her aid and changing the battlefield. She has as much control over the characters as any author has- sure you can push them to do something but it has to be logically in character for them to do. Settings are a bit easier in general, calling forth terrain for defenses is typically Kat’s go to move in combat situations.

I wanted to send you an ask for the DnD Ask but I reallized I didnt really know about your PC. Can you tell me more about em??? /gen

hi thank u!!! i did fully forget i rb’d that ask meme, sooo apologies for not answering this!

so firstly. i do not have any up to date info on my PCs on this blog. Vincent’s game ended back in May this year & i got a new project w him, Tommy’s entirely new (at least in D&D form), etc.

Vincent Rostova:

his tag

the tag for the batshit rp project hes in

straight up as of the last time we updated the full word count, it was at 111k, so there is no concise way to sum this up.

me, @quaxorascal , and (more recently added) @dumpstermaster have been RPing an AU of a game Iz is in. we have been doing this for nearly 5 months.

tldr: haha what if we were all boys and then we all were torn from each others lives and upon reuniting had to reconcile with the changes time has scarred into us and learn how to fall in love all over again haha

Vincent is an aasimar goliath! his aasimar guide is an angel of the hunt and the summer and shes intense and is so hot and im so lucky Vincent is a gay man bc he would have given himself fully to her and became ashes in her light if he liked women. anyways.

he is also a divination wizard, but is primarily a battlemaster fighter! his familiar is a kestrel named Gawain. she had to be informed that kissing is a nice and good thing, not a form of attack, the first time she saw Vincent kiss someone on the lips.

Roxanne Andromeda

her tag

ok once again theres no like concise way to sum her up. shes my babygirl shes so much ive had her for 3 years.

tldr: oh okay i killed the source of my fear & no longer have to fear death at my lover’s hands. wait what do u mean im still afraid and have to learn to live and love beyond this fear that has been my reality for the past decade. what do you mean my story doesnt stop there. (oh also narrative bullshit, rediscovering religion, learning to love and allow urself to be loved)

Dove, no, Kat, no, D’vir, no… Roxanne is a changeling bard of lore and inquisitive rogue. shes. so much and i love her.

Tommy “Rosalie” Lennox

her tag

i juuust started playing her recently in @saturnidchoir ‘s cowboy game…. shes a gloomstalker ranger wildhunt shifter milf and shes So Tired and also why the fuck is there a 15 year old here and HOW did she get hired shes not even lying about her age i cannot adopt yet another fuckin child—

UM YEAH HI. enjoy

[ellzilla]

Ok I need to nerd out for a second because Legends of Runeterra got a new expansion incoming and??? They fixed Nidalee's design and went above and beyond with it!

I'm so in love with this design it's insane. So insane. Thank you LoR team for turning an ancient, lowkey racist design into THIS. Bit too Vastayan imo because her lore is "Human with Vastayan heritage" BUT that's a tiny tiny nitpick easily overlooked bc her lore could change anyway [n' probably needs a touch-up] And her kitty kat form? Oh. My god. My god they made it more than a saber-tooth with a gem on it's face. They made it into an actual BEAST.

God. I need to eventually draw her she's so amazing now. ily Nidalee

[astriwilt]

Alright I decided to post stuff about my goofy story. I’ve been workshopping this story since I was in middle school (I’m in my last year of high school now) but I still think it’s very rough so keep that in mind. That being said any criticism is welcome.

Here’s the overall plot (CW: Implications of nasty things like torture):

OK GET READY BOIS IT’S EXPLANATION TIME; THIS IS GONNA BE A LONG ONE. So this lore explanation is just gonna go over everything you need to know cause if I cover all the lore we’re gonna be here all day.

So basically there’s two types of people. Red systems and blue systems. Blue systems are naturally a lot more sensitive and naive then red systems so they’ve always kind of been discriminated against. Not so bad in the past but it will get bad during the time of my story. Anyway, many many MANY years before my story starts; there’s this religion. Now this religion is very strict and limits the freedom of everyone. Naturally, people start rebelling against the religion and it dies out. The religion is long dead during the time of my story but the effects of it are still present. Basically, since the religion limited freedom under the guise of “morality” there was a group called the dark reds (DR) that decided to rebel by being animalistic and showing no regard for morality. They decided to do real bad; real sadistic things to people. Especially blue systems; since they were very easy targets. The groups of people who rebelled against the religion in more normal ways formed their own political parties. The unbiased (U) people AKA the purple middlers decided to not have any political opinions; as they believe politics act just as the religion did. The light blue biased (LB) people are people who are morally against the dark reds, but they’re too scared to actively oppose them. Then there’s the blue middlers (BM). The people who actively and aggressively oppose dark reds.

This takes us to modern day in my story. There are now kingdoms separated by political bias. The purple kingdom lets everyone live there; since they believe kicking anyone out would show political bias. The green kingdom keeps out both strong biased people (both dark reds and blue middlers) in order to keep a peaceful society. The blue kingdom keeps out dark reds; considering It’s a blue middler ran kingdom and it’s morally against dark reds, and the red kingdom keeps out blue middlers; considering it’s a dark red kingdom and blue middlers would try to stop their sadistic activities. The red kingdom is ruled by the Tilley family: a group of dark reds that are the poster children for dark redism. These are obviously the villains of the story considering they’re sadistic jackasses. The blue kingdom is ran by the Kri family; a group of blue middlers who are the poster children for blue middlerism. Christine Coffey of the Coffey family rules the green kingdom and is light blue biased, and Kat Ingles of the Ingles family rules the purple kingdom and is unbiased. However unlike the very strong biased Tilleys and Kris; members of the Coffey and Ingles families range in bias. Like Lydia Coffey who has a dark red bias, or Winona Ingles who has a blue middler bias. Our story starts when Jared and Sydney Kri have a child that’s a statistical anomaly. Evie Kri is a blue system child born to two red system parents. While the odds of this happening aren’t impossible; they’re EXTREMELY low. This scares the Kri family (since blue systems are the main targets of dark reds, and since the dark reds hate the Kri family; the Kris are afraid that Evie will become their #1 target if they ever knew about her). So the Kris hide her identity from the rest of the world and her existence is only known in the blue kingdom. There are harsh punishments for ever speaking a word about her outside of the kingdom. Evie (being our main character) struggles between her fear of what might happen to her and her want to not be kept on a leash by her overprotective family. And that’s where the story begins 🎉

Here’s some really bad gachas to give you an idea about what a few of the characters look like. Note that I’m bad at character design LMAO. So yeah, just take this as an overall idea of what they look like in my head since I can’t draw worth a shit:

Girl with black hair: Evie Kri (She/Her): Princess of the blue kingdom. Main character. Hates politics but still tries to engage in them. Her family doesn’t want this for her, since she’s a blue system Kri they’re overprotective to the extreme. Truthfully, she doesn’t want that for herself either, but she feels like she has something to prove. Puts herself in her own paradox: all she really wants in life is to be herself and be comfortable with being a blue system, but also feels she has to put on a red system Kri persona both to protect herself and prove that there’s a reason she’s a member of the prestigious Kri family. In reality, she’s a sensitive girl who likes to engage in fiction and wants to become a horror novelist. However the persona she puts on is a smug blue middler know-it-all.

Guy with grey eyes: Jared Kri (He/Him): King of the blue kingdom. Pinnacle of an overprotective father. He is an anxiety ridden mess. Very overly moral man. Rightfully hates the dark reds but can come off as a little morally righteous. Has very good intentions despite his flaws. (Ahhhh his hair looks so goofy. But it was the closest thing to what I imagined even though it doesn’t look good on his gacha)

Guy with blue eyes: Andrew Tilley (He/Him): King of the red kingdom. Absolute asshole man. Is the worst. Very childish spoiled brat who doesn’t understand empathy. Is a dark red and a Tilley so he’s a sadistic jackass too. What a lovely man! Even though he acts like a child; he’s very dangerous. Mostly cause he’s a very good manipulator. Likes to pretend that nothing can bother him but is very afraid of losing control.

Girl in green: Christine Coffey (She/Her): Queen of the green kingdom. Very sweet woman who makes a lot of mom jokes. She wants to present herself as a motherly figure, and tries to see the best in everyone. Hates the fact that she’s a coward though. She’s a light blue biased person, which means she opposes the dark reds but is too scared to say so. She wants to become more courageous and looks to Jared for inspiration.

Purple hair: Kat Ingles (They/Them): Ruler of the purple kingdom. Firmly believes in staying out of all political arguments . Is kind of a dick, and looks down on anyone with political bias. Even though they’re unbiased; they will do anything to keep the political power they have. Always tries to keep up a professional appearance, and only lets loose around their girlfriend (that girlfriend is Christine Coffey woahhhhhh).

So yeah. Btw the story is called Evie’s Personal Novel. Get it? Cause it’s like “Evie’s Diary”…..but she’s a….horror novelist. Yeah, if anyone recommends a better name I might use it with their permission LMAO.

So what do you think? Again, I welcome any criticism cause I know there’s a lot of stuff I could fix. I might post more characters later cause there’s a LOT of characters (maybe too many). But these are the main ones.

[katastrophic-n3vulaa]

'ello.

hi. i'm kat, a.k.a. most, if not all of the 'n3vulaa' -s you've seen online.

not that i'm in many places, only ao3 and here.

and even if you don't want to know: the profile pic came from a year 8 art class where we did printing and our subject needed to be a native australian animal, i ended up doing a numbat, but the eastern rock wallaby was on the list. and this one was very judgmental so i love it now.

✨about me✨

i'm australian. i go by she/they pronouns. i'm aroace and agender sometimes, i have adhd, autism, and anxiety so i'm a six-ntuple A battery.

i'm a minor (not of legal drinking age in australia). i love doing art on paper, with clay, ceramics, wood, textiles and more but i'm shit at digital art. i'm a fanfic reader, writer and editor.

im in a lot of fandoms (in quotation marks, because i only really focus on characters and ignore the fandom), and i fall in and out of them with burnout, but i mainly hyperfixate on characters (not all of these are active always and some were rlly short, but):

edward elric (fma & fmab), sebastian solace (pressure), link\wild (loz & linked universe), connor\rk800 (dbh), hunter (toh), ulquiorra (bleach), five (tua), gabriel, sam winchester, jack kline (spn) zuko (atla), grian (evo & watcher lore), leo, nico, apollo (pjo), aventurine, dan heng, welt yang (honkai), kaeya, scaramouche, freminet (genshin), matt murdock (daredevil), loki (mcu), commander fox, ahsoka tano (star wars), jason todd and duke thomas (dcu)

i'm pretty sure thats it <3

some of these were momentary and some of them are active. idk about a lot of them- they were at some point. i think. i have Opinions on all of them.

they each have their own tag, btw. mostly it's what is up there, but at this point, who knows? that's how you would navigate this amalgamation of a blog, btw.

good posts are under 'archive' and my favourites are under 'kat's archive', i know, very creative.

i really like books.

im also really bad at words.

i think things but the translator isnt working.

ok have a good day peoples <3

[noxianwilled]

of all the battle academia stuff I thought about yesterday the thought that really stuck with me was the fact marcus kept her in the divorce with swain in that verse I'm still thinking about it

anyway unassorted ba katarina thoughts:

she isn't really a bully (she's not friendly, she keeps everyone else at a distance, but she doesn't go out of her way to pick on others), but neither does she bother to interfere most of the time if sb else is being bullied. touch her friends (she won't call them that) or her siblings and you'll get yourself a public beating though.

I was also thinking of cass and tal..... I wonder where they are.... but I kinda like the idea that, much like kat doesn't resent marcus as much and would want to look into his disappearance like ye old canon lore, she and talon would team up for that

regardless of what cait says she's a 100% too stuck up for kat to like her at all tbh

thinking about the fact she and yone were in the assassin club together at one point in labrys (and I know with the whole 'they're both arrogant loners' that seems unlikely but. what if they were friends. what if)

ez and lux are both too chipper optimistic and bubbly for her liking (I think with time she warms up to them but. she'll not admit it)

she hates jayce she can't stand to see his face all over school ok he's class president but is it really necessary to stamp his face on everything (stabs jayce pictures for fun) (nothing personal but if he tried to approach her the welcome would be frigid)

if sb says she's cute she'll stab them with the nearest available sharp tool it might be a dagger it might be a pencil

despite her attitude she's a top student and the top assassin in school. but she may or may not have been involved in previous durandal assassin club presidents suffering unfortunate accidents to take over the position faster.

HOLY GOD! Ok, this project launched back in... October of 2020 and it’s here. Huge and never ending thanks go out to everyone involved in this project, I’ll credit all those I can. Please know that you all mean the world to me and the fact you did this... I was close to tears man, genuinely. This world, and I know I’ve said it a million times, is my baby, and that you all did this... fuck. It just makes me unimaginably happy. Thank you. 

Please give your appreciation and love to the wonderful artists who made this possible, and support them where you can. They all did an amazing job.

My #1 post of 2022

6! Preferably for Mariza and Delta but you can do whoever you want

"I missed you... a lot"

It'd taken a good deal of time for Mariza and Delta's... relationship to even out after Mariza's ascension.

It'd taken the half desperate pleadings of someone far too exhausted to keep up a one sided fight for it to stop, a fire no longer fueled by oxygen left to smolder. Then they were left with what remained, a goddess who didn't know who she was, and a pirate who remembered everything but didn't know where to start.

So they started anyway, because when had they ever planned for anything?

The bottom of the ocean, contrary to the superstitions of sailors who'd never so much as swam a reef, was far more lively than an eternal quiet. Just because the cool depths only contained the echoes of humans didn't mean they were devoid of life, only human life. Though for some that didn't make a difference. It made the perfect spot for a mer and the embodiment of the ocean to sit and watch the world go by, the occasional curious fish swimming around Mariza's torso and extra limbs, weaving in and out as though the goddess were nothing but coral.

"Guess they like 'ya huh?"

Delta laughed as the guppy darted away from Mariza's claws, the goddess unable to contain a small chuckle of her own.

"Well, they know better than to be near a shark. I think they want me to protect them from you."

"Right, because I'm the more deadly of the two of us, you're ridiculous."

"I dunno," Mariza smiled impishly, "Those teeth of yours are pretty sharp."

"Mari. I've seen you bite boats in half. Come on."

Delta whacked Mariza with her fin, enough to push her forward, but no further than that. Of course, retaliation was swift, and those same tendrils that were a fish's playground wrapped around Delta's tail and hoisted her vertical, then in a loop. The cycle continued until both were cackling messes, throwing small handfuls of sand in each others' direction as they wheezed.

"Ha- haha- Can't believe you're this easily winded. Aren't you supposed to be a god?"

"Yeah well- I'm still- still getting used to it. It's not like I'm laughing all that much around Samira."

Ah, that pleasant company. Surely a more jovial presence you couldn't find.

"No kidding. I can't say that I've laughed this hard in a while either. I missed this."

Cold regret seeped into the waters around them. For what it was worth, Mariza tried to give a sarcastic half smile, though it didn't quite reach her eyes.

"Did you now?"

Too late to pretend she didn't mean it now.

"I did. I missed you... a lot. When you slipped under the water... Thought I'd never see you again. But hey, lucky me, right?"

"Lucky that I didn't end up sinking you when you came up and hugged me out of the blue."

"Hey! How was I supposed to know you had all the memory of a brain-dead sunfish left?"

"Brain dead- HEY!"

The bickering continued, but Delta couldn't help the smile that clung to her face each time Mariza let out that laugh of hers, or looked away for a brief moment.

She really was lucky, huh?

It stung she still missed her, sometimes.

[freakattack]

Im not done yet but move it thoughts so far (SPOILERS)

I hate this but i'm getting this out of the way right now because i am NOT pointing out every time this happens, but i cannot believe how much unintentional deviantart type shit is in this?? Obviously it's all goofy cartoon gags so it's innocuous in intent but with so many in quick succession it feels like we're checking off boxes here. Kids, there's nothing more cool than drawing characters you like, but if an anonymous stranger ever randomly approaches you asking you to draw "what if ashley was giant haha", THAT'S NO GOOD

One other thing before i get into the individual stages that i thought was weird even back when they released the trailers for this, and i'm being a little fun police about this, is fhat i dont like the implication that this ancient civilization was colonized and converted into a tourist trap. I don't know how i would have fixed this but seeing it all laid out like that is like oh, this feels sucky.

WARIO: I like the callback to smooves in his stage and also that he gets both in and out of trouble by being a massive dick. The new voice......it's gonnna have to grow on me

MONA: Was a little disappointed that she was looking for mermaids instead of like barnacles or something but it's fine, mermaids can be for everyone. Joe is a fucking maniac but i respect him.

THE CRYGORS: really fucking cute. I love the pose mike does when you win. Also, the retroactive cave drawings of each of them are super funny

ORBULON:

W

H

A

4.T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK first of all, i know i said that i wasnt gonna bring this up again but i really really hate the orbulon weight gain thing. Do you know how many of that exact image i have been accosted by before this game was even announced just by googling his name?? TOO MANY. And now all of them are REAL. I feel betrayed.

now that that's out of the way. WHAT!!!!!

I don't know how to feel about the oinker being alive. I'm at a loss. On one hand, it upends everything we know about the oinker. On the other hand, i too have a soul bond with my car

I enjoyed being able to look inside orbulon's brain. I think that is all i ever wanted to do in a wario game.

One thing i think is highly consistent with his old characterization is that he WOULD instantly welcome people worshipping him like a god

THE ORBULON DAD REVEAL. It's like. See I thought we were going to meet him in person and it would be like a big lore thing but this is literally a joke. I'm ok with a joke. I'm ok with a gaff.

I really appreciated all of the slapstick. If orbulon doesn't eat shit on the concrete is it even worth it

This is in a later cutscene but i'm addressing it here, i simultaneously love and hate the fact that orbulon is depicted sleeping on a lounge chair slurping a drink because i literally drew him doing exactly that in the next camping episode. I'm very happy that we are all in agreement that that is a thing he can do. But mark my words i did it first so you gotta act surprised okay

OK one last thing but i really liked rhe chicken rap

ASHLEY: Just your standard garden variety ashley cutscene. Even on vacation red needs a vacation

THE REMIX BUS: this is my favorite cutscene in the game. Super funny, love the chaos as well as seeing each character fooling around and just hanging out, and mike's singing is melodious. This is the peace all true warriors strive for

CRICKET & MANTIS: I think i said "WHAT" out loud like five times during both of these cutscenes. WHAT!!!!!!!!!

KAT & ANA: Similarly, CRACTUS??!!!?! FROM WARIO LAND??!! I enjoy how many random throwbacks this game has. Also, nice to see the return of leo even though i didnt care about him that much. He's alright

JIMMY T: Beautiful as always. 10/10 no notes

Dribblenspitz: I think there is more raw emotion in dribble's "AW, NUTS" than the entire rest of the game. Love their cutscene

Also love that REPORTER KEN is BACK and i guess he wears contacts now good for him. Love the traditional dribblenspitz sci fi shooter boss

[netaro--yowa]

so so interesting looking at old oc lore actually bc its like

"Man i can barely read this handwriting" (<-has the exact same handwriting)

"So the character named cat used to actually be a cat. And it was spelled like kat. Strange choice but ok."

"what do you MEAN theyre the same person!?"

"WHO IS HIKARI???????"

"oh i am so glad i forgot about that. that was a terrible idea."

"'(he/they)' he would NOT use those pronouns. He doesn't even know what a pronoun is man cmon."

"hey past me why did you word it like that."

"why did i ever think this was a good idea"

"wait thats actually a good idea"

"'they were all vanquished' dude this is LITERALLY ur notes chill. Godamn no wonder i burn out so easily."

[fluffallamaful]

So, uh. There are these two EXCELLENTLY-written character studies surrounding c!Dream that I’d like to suggest — but they’re both Canon Compliant, meaning that they’re not all that fluffy. They have kind of hopeful endings, I think, but they’re on the darker side of what I’ve sent before. I’m gonna recommend them below:

inosculation: https://archiveofourown.org/works/44126358

crown, plate, bowl: https://archiveofourown.org/works/45418216/

Anyway I’m a HUGE fan of hurt/comfort, so I’d like it if readers would imagine that all of my tickly fix-it’s happen with this sort of thing as a sort of historical context for my aus :) (Kat is seriously an incredible writer. Most of her stuff is REALLY dark, but I think these two fics are kind of around the level of angst where you’d still be able to appreciate them.) (Especially because you KNOW the fluff is gonna come right after :) )

finally managed to read both of these!! and omfg they’re both incredibleeeeee!! i love the way they’re written so much and you’re right this is the sort of angst i can absolutely handle,, and more than that,,, i quite simply adore it. his character is awesome

(discussion belowwww):

🦙🦙🦙…

link 1 — make sure you read the author’s trigger warnings <3

it’s actually so damn cool what people can take from the minecraft lore. the prison arc has always been my favourite to write i feel. there’s so much emotion and it’s easy to compare said emotion to the prison’s surroundings. and you’re right, this person is feckin epic at writing omg. the way they describe the changes that dream and sam go through in prison is incredibly awesome. their flow is awesome. their descriptions are awesome.

the way they mention both sam and dream comparing dream’s body to a machine is so cooollll. coz that’s what it felt like in the prison arc, both of them slowly losing sight of what they were even both there for, just getting far too sucked up in their role. it’s also fun to point out that sam would have been making all his decisions assuming that dream would be in prison for ages. dream was under the impression that he’d be out after a only a short time (once punz decides that he’s off everyone’s radar). it’s just so cool.

and also how they talked about how once techno and quackity had left the prison they both ended up slipping so comfortably back into their roles (sam is warden, dream is is prisoner). so coooollll

🦙🦙🦙…

link 2 — again, check the warnings before you read

ok ThIS one i feCKIn lOvE. like it captures dream’s tolerance to physical pain so damn well, and his way of always finding a positive light in his struggles. his character was always so optimistic in the darkest of situations. also i lOVe the way they’ve told it. basing it around food. so cool

the little details that they added were anazingggg. like the fact that he was clumsy and not as skilled in the early days, and the idea of him trying to roast his potatoes in the lava. and omG the s2 reference at the end there aH ahHH!! it’s so pretty and well written and fun. like it’s such a fun way to describe his character. very very coool 🥺
