Elder Bones... what if I... made a ClanGen mod based off of Better Bones.
Sure go ahead!
I hope they take that nutrition mechanic off the backburner soon, I feel like that update would be the perfect opportunity for someone to go in there with a BB-inspired mod.

One thing people need to understand about me is that I am always role-playing. Even and especially when I'm playing board games where that's not the point. So to me, games where the mechanics have literally nothing to do with the framing device are kind of absurd.

Guys what if scarabs dream shadow thing is blue because he was originally blue, like a lobster situation and he got fucking boiled somehow. Ignore how that doesn’t make sense. Just think about it, because I know we’ve been running with the whole ripped off wing situation, I think this might be interesting… I think I might have something here…..
Scarab could actually be a metallic blue. Just ignore the science behind it and embrace the blue. Trust me. Might use lobster mechanic for daydreamer AU

Spicebush larva with osmeterium displayed When these caterpillars are confronted an orange forked gland flicks in and out like a tongue and secretes nasty smelling material. By John Flannery on Flickr. (Hi-Res).

Took a while, but I have another Cherrywood neighbor done-Tiki Ti! Some fun facts about this guy, which I'll put under readmore along with the rest:
-just barely over 3 feet tall thanks to the antennae
-autistic & severely anxious, though it's friends have helped a lot with that
-favorite food is sweet cheese pie
-comes from a family of honeypot ant ranchers, which is where his love of ants comes from
-at roughly the equivalent of 20 human years old, it's one of the youngest neighbors
-extremely pretty by Centicarr standards, to the point where people sometimes think he's a supermodel
-has a pair of beetle wings under the rear elytra, but is too scared to ever try flying

Eddie was one of the first of Home's residents to meet any of them, and naturally it was quite a shock when a guy made of bugs walked in! He does over time learn to tolerate and even somewhat enjoy Tiki's presence though- he has to, since a mutual love of insects means that Frank's new bestie is often over at their house. The others have a bit of an easier time getting along with their new buggy pal, although in a similar fashion to Eddie Sally's presence and intensity do end up taking some time to get used to.

I'll leave y'all with a final sketch of Tiki teaching Frank his native language, Chitter, which although they lack the mouthparts to speak fluently can be modified to the point of being understood.

thinking about Tron program bodies again, blood is not enough for me, where are the wires and fans and plates of metal that bend and snap
I have this vague image of an anatomical diagram of a program
Energy Circulatory System - the Blood, also the digestive track bc they don't have food, Mouth to throat tube to processor located center, near the disk port, it processes and then pumps the energy through the lightlines of the body, if a program overclocks themselves enough, they can suffer burnt or even ruptured circuitry
Energy both fuels the program and cools them off, when cooling processes are activated, the energy will be cooled off by nearby venting processes and will then be circulated throughout the body
Venting System - Similar looking to lungs, two fans that sit within the upper chest, one on each side, subtle ducts can open along the sides of a program to release extra heat (they sorta look like gills, ticklish), Most of the cooling is done through this system, Vents work to expell air through the nose, mouth, and additional vents and ducts, some programs have extra vents for their functions (Mechanic need more bc they work in hotter environments)
The Disc Port - connected directly to the morherboard of the program, this is why if programs are hit there, they will derezz, sorta like a brain (head wounds are not fatal), all processors are connected via wires to the board
Processors - part of the motherboard, eyes, ears, nose, tongue, all the senses are split up into different processing units, These usually have a mechanical unit, like eyeballs, that connect to the board with long thin wires, essentially the nervous system, but centered around the disc not the head
Internal Systems - internal sensors and diagnostics that regulate the body, the Endocrine System, Connected to a programs personal display, will update with warnings and display whatever parameters needed about the body
"Bones" - programs don't have bones, but they do have metal tubes that house their more delicate pieces (wires), Some programs (security) have more reinforcement around vulnerable areas, like the throat and chest, with the plating sometimes even being above the skin, Additonal plating can be added to the forearms and calves without much modification, further integrated armor is an arduous process
Derezzing is still a thing, parts of a program will maintain integrity to a point, then they collapse into voxels, Not all pieces will derezz, if that threshold isn't met, the pieces will remain in their form, basically, if you want to fully derezz a program you have to grind them into voxels, otherwise the bones and other stuff are unlikely to derezz until the energy runs completely out (usually a few days, or the Grid equivalent), where they will then turn into a pile of voxels
Voxels and Energy both evaporate, losing their vivid technicolor hues, until they turn a dark soot grey, at this point they disappear leaving a thin dusty film behind, it's hard to clean and slippery

Been fixating on how Final Form’s laser chest weapon works. He’s got a lot of organic stuff going on as well so here’s my idea - feel free to ask questions if it’s not clear enough.
Kinda feel like using the chest cannon is a last resort for him, probably gives him stitch or something as well as depleting loads of energy
