What Are Messenger Ads in Ad Formats in Messages?

In the competitive world of digital marketing, businesses are continually seeking innovative ways to engage with their audience and drive conversions. One such effective strategy is the use of Messenger ads. These ads leverage the power of messaging platforms to create personalized and interactive marketing experiences. In this blog, we will explore what Messenger ads are, how they work, and their benefits for your overall Digital Marketing services strategy.

Understanding Messenger Ads

Messenger ads are a form of advertising that appears within the Facebook Messenger app. These ads allow businesses to reach their audience directly in their Messenger inbox, creating a more personal and interactive experience. Messenger ads can take several forms, including:

Messenger Inbox Ads: These ads appear directly in the Messenger inbox, similar to how a message from a friend or contact would appear.

Click-to-Messenger Ads: These ads appear in the Facebook News Feed or Instagram Feed and include a call-to-action button that opens a conversation in Messenger.

Sponsored Messages: These are direct messages to those who have already interacted with your Messenger business

How Messenger Ads Work

Messenger ads work by leveraging the extensive user base of Facebook Messenger, which boasts over 1.3 billion monthly active users. Here’s how they function:

Targeting: Like other Facebook ads, Messenger ads can be targeted based on a variety of criteria, including demographics, interests, behaviors, and more. This guarantees that the correct people see your advertisements.

Placement: You can choose where your Messenger ads appear, whether in the Messenger inbox, as sponsored messages, or as click-to-Messenger ads.

Interaction: Messenger ads encourage direct interaction between the user and your business. For example, a click-to-Messenger ad might prompt a user to start a conversation about a product or service, while a sponsored message can deliver personalized content or offers directly to the user.

Benefits of Messenger Ads

Implementing Messenger ads as part of your Paid Media Advertising company strategy can offer numerous benefits:

1. Direct and Personal Interaction

Messenger ads allow for direct communication with users, creating a more personal and engaging experience. This direct interaction can help build stronger relationships with your audience and improve customer satisfaction.

2. High Engagement Rates

Messages are typically read within minutes of being received, leading to higher engagement rates compared to other ad formats. Users are more likely to interact with a message in their inbox than with a traditional display ad.

3. Enhanced Customer Service

Messenger ads can be used to initiate conversations that provide instant customer support. Automated responses and chatbots can handle common inquiries, while human agents can step in for more complex issues, ensuring that customers receive timely and helpful assistance.

4. Improved Conversion Rates

The interactive nature of Messenger ads can lead to higher conversion rates. By engaging users in a conversation, you can address their questions and concerns in real-time, guiding them through the purchasing process and increasing the likelihood of a sale.

5. Cost-Effective

Messenger ads can be a cost-effective addition to your digital marketing strategy. With precise targeting and high engagement rates, these ads can deliver a strong return on investment (ROI) compared to other ad formats.

Best Practices for Messenger Ads

To maximize the effectiveness of your Messenger ads, consider the following best practices:

1. Personalize Your Messages

Tailor your messages to address the specific needs and interests of your audience. Personalized content is more likely to resonate with users and encourage engagement.

2. Use Clear and Compelling CTAs

Include clear and compelling calls-to-action (CTAs) in your Messenger ads to guide users towards the desired action, whether it’s starting a conversation, visiting your website, or making a purchase.

3. Leverage Automation

Utilize chatbots and automated responses to handle common inquiries and provide instant support. Automation can help manage high volumes of messages and ensure that users receive timely responses.

4. Monitor and Optimize

Regularly monitor the performance of your Messenger ads and make adjustments as needed. Use analytics to track key metrics such as open rates, click-through rates, and conversion rates, and optimize your campaigns based on these insights.

Case Study: Successful Implementation of Messenger Ads

Consider the example of a retail business that integrated Messenger ads into its digital marketing strategy. By targeting users who had previously interacted with their brand on Facebook, they were able to deliver personalized offers and promotions directly to the users’ Messenger inboxes. The result was a significant increase in engagement and conversions, with users appreciating the personalized and convenient shopping experience.

Conclusion

Messenger ads represent a powerful tool in the arsenal of digital marketing strategies. They offer a unique opportunity to engage with your audience in a direct, personal, and interactive manner. By implementing best practices and leveraging the strengths of Messenger ads, businesses can enhance their engagement, improve customer service, and drive higher conversion rates. Integrating Messenger ads into your Paid Media Advertising company strategy can lead to substantial benefits and contribute to the overall success of your digital marketing efforts.

Every life series Grian gets a little more Watchery.

In Third Life, Last Life, Double Life and Limited Life he arguably becomes more chaotic and less empathetic towards the others each season. He cares but the way he cares changes, he becomes each time more focused on causing damage then protecting himself for it.

In Secret Life we see him ad he beings to settle into his role, he becomes the one that declare the rules, he puts himself as the secret keeper or a messanger of it. He enjoys the chaos and destruction that happen as a result of the task and is only unsettled by BigB's weirdness.

In Real Life he doesn't even take it seriously, it has fully become a game to him.

In Wild Life he is the one that controls the story. He creates the twists. He is the one to force hunger on the players, he's the one that creates the snails. He enjoys it more then he ever has, he's fully confortable in his admin role and often goes admin mode. He is less involved directly and spends most of the time manipulating the others players into doing what he wants. He doesn't help Mumbo when he's starving and watches as the snail jumps on Jimmy. He becomes enraged when Jimmy and Scar challenge his control of the story. Ren identifies him as the main cause of their pain, the main threat, a willing tormentor.

Grian has become as much of a Watcher as the other Watchers are.

Shouto's little cat-patterned messanger bag was added to the Troy dorm room scene.

[mortal-of-messangers]

Welcome

Hello, Dawling! Welcome to this blog of mine. A few people I... knew. Have these, so I thought it would be a good idea to get one of these myself.

______

QnA:

What's your name?

Hermes.

No, you're not Hermes. He doesn't exist anymore.

...It was only a joke, Dawling! My name is Troy.

Age?

Older than you~

Where are you staying right now?

I'm currently in Ithaca, I guess it depends what you consider as a home. I stay anywhere that doesn't charge rent

Are you using humor to cope???

...what the fuck is 'cope'???

Where did you get those scars?

Stop asking questions, dawling! It won't end well for you.

____

Au name?

Striken!Hermes AU!

Plot?

Hermes was struck down by Zeus and turned mortal after the Olympians found out Hermes is one of the main reasons Odysseus escaped that island.

Hermes is... KIND of Mortal? He has no powers, but he can't die... sort of.

Natural causes can't kill him, the only way Hermes/Troy can die is if somebody murders him. The gods would refuse to put Hermes out of his misery, meaning he either has to wait for somebody to try and kill him or he has to beg for the mercy of death.

He's using Humor to cope with the fact he's practically lost everything he has. This man is immortal... yet he gets none of the things that made it worth living forever.

The scars are permanent, they are forever engraved onto Troy's skin.

A constant reminder of the mistake he made.

In the eyes of most gods, Hermes is dead. He's just gone. Nobody (besides Iris) even saw Hermes get struck (unlike Athena).

Zeus is the only one who's meant to know, and Iris has now taken Hermes's status as the major Messanger God

[anemonet]

oh my god thats so sweet of you!!!! thank you :DD also super sorry for deleting your ask btw

To get down to business well uh iterators huh, so I can tell you have read some of my ramblings before (very fun) and I will say in general I stand by those ideas - model differences and stuff - with some smaller changes here and there, for instance I made pebbles antennas stupidly long cause I think it looks funny - plus tons of tiny refinements, but generally I dont have too much to add unless theres something specific your wondering about - so I wont focus to much on that. Instead I'm gonna chat a bit about the other stuff you mentioned (NSH and wire headwear) ^-^ so heres the guys! (I'm gonna expand a bit on their design designs)

Ok so you have actully managed to point out something I really hoped no one would notice, which is that I never draw No Significant Harrasment (NSH) - who I hope you meant when you asked about sig, if not then dont look at me - and that is because I despise him with my whole heart. Or well, his design, the character is fine but I cannot draw this guy, I hate his colour scheme and his stupid little cape and why is his head symbols green on green - who allowed this - and in general we are not friends, which is a pity because I have alot of headcanons about him. But as you can see above I have semi settled on a design for him (note the semi, I am not super happy about it) and I do have some toughts and explanations.

So first of, I put NSH as being from the same model generation as suns - so predecessing moon and pebs by a bit - with older designs that have a larger focus on "religious stuff" combined with the anchients overall bonkers fashion sense - more is more - if you wanna read more about that its in this post about suns.

- I would also, this is a side note btw, like to mention I think having them being older models gives room to have some key differences between the oldies (NSH and suns) and the youngsters-ish (moon and pebs) in that one, they have older machinery and also early machinery which means both rougher quality and more wear and tear - which I like to think give them both the idea of slugcats as messangers earlier than most, as they knew their easily damaged functions (broadcast masts for example) would not last forever, which gives them a reason to want to solve it (by breeding scugs I guess) and added onto that I - and this is pure headcanon and speculation - like to imagine a lot of the "taboos" that pebbles and moon have - or well that I speculate they have, the no killing yourself or harming citizens taboo is confirmed canon, but I dont think its farfetched to asume they have other restrictions programmed - something that would most likely be added in later modles, but would be absent in the earlier ones like suns and NSH (not the earliest models but early) which theoreticly would give them a bit more leeway and "creative freedom", which ok why am I talking about this back to why NSH looks like that. -

Back to that, so suns and NSH will share design similarities: lack of face (to represent a lack of ego), lots of robes and layers, which leads us into the slightly more relevant sidenote of iterator clotheing:

So fashion comes and goes in cycles, your mom rebeled against her grandmothers clothing choises and is horrified when that fashion comes back via her daughter who think it looks cool again (20 year old rule or whatever) and that also applies to iterator design (look at that old suns ask for more info on this). So while I have talked about general trends a little, now I wanna talk about waistlines - in robes, because I have wanted an exscuse to talk about it, I be brief promise!

: so like you probably havent noticed all my iterators have different waistlines, or at least the ones from different generations - ignore moon, I'm a no robe for moon beliver, I like to draw joints and wires to much to give her robes - and I will sadly report I have not looked to closely at actual anchient fashion for the choises I made, but well cant have everything. So the most notable is probably pebbles, where I, ok Imostly fell for temptation of a modern highwaist cut, which while moslty being about my own tatse, also is an atempt to convey some form of "modernity" because while its a bright orange robe on a robot, it has a similar cut to highwaisted jeans. Which gives the silhoute from a couple years ago with a big bulky upper body and stick legs. But pebbles isnt intresting in that way, no its because every other design is a resistence against that.

And this again leads into the cycles of fashion. Because we know iterators were built under many cycles - however long those are - so we can asume it will be kinda like how fashion has changed from the 11th centrury to now. Which gives to reason that iterators have been dressed differently too. This added with that - from what I understood - different iterator cities (colonies) had different cultures (boradcast, red, in sky islands) all this then makes me kinda figure that the iterators should have different robes. Yes that was a long winded way to say that characters look different.

So back to waistlines and how their all anti pebbles robes - the most notable difference is of course suns, who has no waistline. They are not only without to create a bigger difference between them and pebbles, but to also lean a bit on - and this might not be the same for every culture - but on the general idea that older clothes were more "modest" or in this case, there are more layers and any hints of there being a body under there is desperatly covered. and that "modern clothes" have less layers and have show more skin - not that pebble is showing skin, but hes wearing one robe instead of seven. So with that the idea that suns is older is conveyed a little bit at least, and the same then applies to NSH. NSH while also having lots of layers, is different from suns by having an empire waistline, mostly because I think their cute and need them to look different, but also to give a hint that they have different city fashion cultures and also because when I see empire waists i think old paintins and old paintings=old.

-also while I'm on the subject of cultural differences between iterator facilities. Can we talk about how we only really get to see anchient society as its presented in moon and pebbles (shared?) facility. So really its very possible the whole aestetic is complelty different like five local groups away. Food for thought. -

So faceless and robe-rich is a similarity between suns and NSH, and I could mention many more, but I'm gonna restrain myself and only talk about headphones. As you can tell I - and most fanartist here - like to draw their antennas differently for all of them! which is also canon, but I also ignored canon so were gonna talk about it. Mostly the antennas give room for some fun mini details, like how moons look like wings or fins while suns are just sunbeams.

Anyhow so most people make NSH bald, me included, mostly because the super cool official art of him gives him no antennas (sad). I asume that means he works via bluetooth.

(I was about to start speculating about their headphones but that got to boring even for me so sorry if your super intrested in why iterators probably have headphones)

But I had a ulterior motive with bringing up the headphones - and not only to be able to point out moons antenna, which I delight in drawing - but also so that I can transition into the second part of this way to long response! itertors hairdos... wire-dos? basicly this \/

(im reusing my wip because these are a pain to draw so we use what we have - I coloured them in a bit for better oversight.)

(also I was gonna start talking about if iterators would actully do personalisations like this - as we can argue about if they concepulize themself as their puppets and see a meaning to decorating them - I would argue yes but also its complicated- and also explain how iterators have different prefernces, which I realised most people probably already asume so I didnt need to explain that - anyhow so that got to long so I'm not gonna get into it. Instead were gonna go into this section with the assumptions that they do fun things with their wires. and also that the wires connect to their nape and backhead instead of their back or spine.)

So to me th biggest thing to remember when we talk about potetial wire headwear is that:

- iterators live 24/7 without gravity and because of that cannot be bothered by to heavy headwear, therefore theres rooms for them and anchients (and me) to get funky with it without having to concider gravity.

-anchients wore absurdly many decorations - and while giving iterators flashy decorations does take away from my earlier statement that they were based on more humble monk stuff, we are going to asume they used the fancy headwear for cermonies and festivals (which we also know anchients did) and that it was used for showcasing and fun. If some iterators preffered to keep them afterwards is another query.

So with that in mind lets break these headwear thingies down!! :D

so as you can (hopefully) tell there three components in the headwear. The headphones that are different depending on iterator and are not removable (or as unremovable a computer part can be). Then theres the actual headpieces that keeps the wires togheter. These can be switched out and changed depending on whats preffered - also I drew them in gold but any material works, if were being closer to canon they would probably be made of some purposed organism and maybe be neon pink - theres also pearls dangling from them because its a perfect opertunity. Third theres probably the part I think is the most fun which is the actual wires. They obviously go through the headpieces and then are set free via wiretassles (that also comes in different forms) and after that is where my own speculations about wires comes in. Which is really simple in that iterators can most probably move the wires at will - they can control their arm thing, pearls and other objects in their chambers, reasonably they can move the wires - and I think its fun if different iterators move them differently. Like suns keeps them straight and neat, or pebbles moves them in syncronized formations or moon who just lets them hang, so many oppertunities ok ( you can see the general idea in the drawing). The wires then connect to their movement arms and connect to the mainframe.

And thats kinda about it? I dont have like anything super intresting to say about just the hairdos other than that I think its very fun and also that everyone is sleeping on wire customizations I am obbsessed with the idea send help.

Ok I think I'm done chatting!! Hope your still here and that this wasnt insufferable to read. Uh, thanks for the ask :D

(NSH for your enjoyment)

Slightly incoherent The Witcher S02 rant

(Finished and posted two years later with no Starbucks involved...)

They’re trying so hard to be The Next Game of Thrones, they’re erasing everything that makes The Witcher special. Things are changed unnecessarily, *new* *original* storylines added- much simpler and inferior to source material.

There’s a lack of ~variety~ of dangers. Different kinds, different degrees... It’s all life-threatening, fatal. The writers forgot some things can be dangerous only thanks to specific circumstances. Leshy in the woods can be just that- monster living in witchers’ keep’s backyard, not some weird parasite trying to murder or transform all the witchers.

Another trend I've noticed is "No rest for the heroes.". Characters aren't allowed to have a place and/or time to develop without preasure. The most peaceful part of Ciri's story got turned into parade of incompetent, inconsiderate idiots. It’s the same issue I had with first season of Shadow and Bone, where MC's studies and integration into new enviroment got struck out. Both were lacking "action". Both got cut short and re-written to be more "eventful". In both cases the story AND characters suffered. Characters aren’t developed, they become changed. Netflix seems to have a pattern, and- considering second season of S&B- doesn’t learn from its previous terrible results.

Another huge issue is pacing. The whole season feels like it happened in a week, when Blood of Elves took more than a season of the year.

“I know someone...” As it turned out, we all do.

When we’re at things I hate, there’s the trend of connecting EVERYTHING. You have a minor part to fill? Give it to one of already existing characters to make their path more eventful and memorable. What happened to random soldier, corpse no. 54 or anonymous inkeeper in shithole MC’s just passing through? You don't constantly cross ways with the same three people! Make the world real by houndreds of faces you'll never see again! It’s like the creators didn’t notice this is a TV show, not a video game, where you have to animate every different feature, so more NPC with the same faces are to be expected.

I also dislike the trend of giving some storylines to one-off side characters or making new things up just to make them important enough to keep them around (Istredd, Dara, Stregobor). Why can't you accept some people appear, fuck up your life and you never see them again? Are they pushed to keep some actors around?

The books are mostly following Geralt’s and Ciri’s story, but not exclusively. Show offers a chance to add more background politics, wider picture. Instead they bait us with well-known, already beloved characters that get reduced to something they’re not. I’ve made a separate post about Francesca Findababair, but they didn’t treat Philippa any better. Instead of a badass, crucial for the plot, the intelligence behind Redanian Intelligence, she’s just an owl. Dijkstra’s messanger to keep in touch with some sad little elf kid.

Voleth Mier disaster

There isn’t more genric evil creature in fantasy than “demon”. Then they call it “Mother of Evil”? She’s feeding on fear? I’m starting to suspect someone in the writing room has some serious mommy issues. ... and no imagination.

Apparently Blood of Elves without a final boss fight is too boring to adapt faithfully. There’s no time to increase the stakes gradually. Every season needs to end with a BANG!

Shared dreams? Why is there the need to connect everything even more to make it MORE important and SPECIAL and INTERESTING?

Vesemir and the rest of Kaer Morons

Why the fuck is Coën Wolf, not Griffin? Remember how I talked about unnecessary changes? Why bother keeping names, when everything else is different?

Eskel didn’t deserve this shit. The writers are counting on our pre-existing knowledge of his relationship with Geralt, so his death has at least some impact. Zero effort on their part, merely one (1) flashback. The Wolf funeral is plain stupid, while supposed to look "cool". a.) There isn't many witchers, they tend to die on the Path. b.) I'm sure the mutations just make the witchers tastier. No side effects. c.) Eskel was a fucking tree. Did the wolves just use him as a fancy chewing toy?

Lambs is a dick, but a dick, who loves his family. Not a bully picking on young traumatized girls.

Vesemir’s probably the second worst, considering the whole mischaracterization mess. They’ve changed friendly grandpa into "Let us use Ciri to make more witchers". Not OOC at all.

The writers also kinda missed the whole point of only four witchers living in the gigantic keep, but never mind that...

Why do they bother looking for new stories, when they just grind it into homogenic crap corresponding with The Pattern™?

Since when are witchers training in temples? (So much for neutrality...) And where's the chubby Slavic panímáma? Melitele's tample was about healing and herbs, not magic, that's Yennefer's storyline. Yes, it matters. It completely changes the perspective.

Since there’s no emotional build-up for anything, creators went for low-haging fruit. But Roach had to die for more reasons. Aside from the obvious (Horses aren’t immortal and we can’t kill the bard.), it’s the perfect way to get Geralt on gorgeous black Friesian. Y'no, because other horses are never so cool. And the Hero™ can't ride just some chestnut these days... Don't get me wrong, I love Friesians since I was a child, but this trend is beyond annoying.

Why change 14th of the hill? That’s Triss’ storyline and passing it on Yennefer served absolutely nothing.

Then we have Rience, who is for some reason super powerful- not only he doesn't have a problem drawing from fire, he can teleport to witcher's keep? Place full of magic, the very same one that's hard to find and he's never been to? Compare with game!plot, where Lambert’s dimetrium bombs messed with Yennefer’s magic enough for her not to be able to call someone.

There should be a list of banned words, or words and phrases that are often overused: power, protect, save, curse(d), fault, ~ needs you. ~I~ need you., Together. *meaningful pause*, You can fight this., glowy eyes = evil, suicidal self-sacrifice, not perfect but real, family, I beliiiiieve in you., force, darkness...

Sorry, but using a quote from one of the strongest moments of Blood of Elves in completely different situation will NOT give you extra points. Quite contrary. This is how you ruin one of he best parts of the books- by holding a sword to your SO's (who's been through some serious shit) neck.

Honorable mention of Emhyr var AnotherDumbVillain, for publicly proclaiming Ciri’s his daughter ...now the whole Nilfgaard knows what he wants. Stupid and the easiest way to let his enemies’ spies know just HOW much is she valuable.

Things I liked about this season: Tris and Ciri's meeting, Vereena, Yenneskíer chemistry

If there’s one thing second season of The Witcher taught me, it’s “Keep your expectations low, you’re gonna be let down anyway.”.

November 22 2024 2009

Dad kidnapped by the Dark Forces confirmed.

Thats one heck of a kingdom.

Looks like Dad is holding his own just fine. I kinda feel sorry for these imps if Im being honest, like this one here was so resigned to its fate before Dad decked them through the wall.

What I think is really important are these next two panels.

Those look like giant versions of the device in Jades room. Here they look a heck of a lot more like windows and display both Dad and John. This new character here has front row seats to both Egberts and is very displeased by this turn of events.

And then of course is our official introduction to the Peregrine Mendicant.

They were lucky enough to not be trapped in the center for the duration of the flight, however that does but them at a disadvantage regarding thier current whereabouts.

For some reason PM here also seems to have a barcode tattooed on their wrist. The single letter they found is addressed to a Dr. David Brenner in Washington. Although the sender has been torn off, we can see that this is labeled SERIOUS BUSINESS which was the name of Dads messanger app so he potentially is one of the individuals from there. Or it could just be legit mail. He is a doctor after all.

PM has the same sentiments towards mail as WV has towards mayoral duties. Their conviction is so strong they actually reacted with an underlined 'NEVER.' when told to open the letter. Not only that, but PM started on a rant about the mail system, decided this needed added flair and took the time to put on the mail carrier hat, before continuing on the rant, a tear in their eye.

Things the mail is (according to PM):

freedom

life

the fabric of civilization

a righteous crusade to resurrecting a dead planet

Man, now Im starting to feel patriotic about the postal system. That was very beautiful PM.

PM, after that rousing speech, walks over to their own terminal which has similar albeit slightly different order of commands. PM did not type anything to any kid prior to typing =>HOME meaning their terminal most likely was left on this screen before they arrived. Entering =>VIEW, we open screen four and confirm Jade is the protagonist of this feed. Theres heavy green interference as we see Jade now outside holding a gun, and apparently the figure is familiar to PM.

PM has a better grasp of manners than WV had at the start and asks 'Don't I know you?' to which Jade looks at the camera and shakes her head no.

Apparently, this was not the correct thing to do because something goes terribly wrong. The visual interference gets worse as the terminal shakes from the surge of electrical feedback eventually exploding the wall of the still flying craft.

I hope PM is ok.

HAHAHAHAHA MY AUUUUUUUUU

WHO'S YOUR ROMEO?

(dont mind the blurry letters above them, theyre descriptions of what they wear so i can visualize them--)

My Royalty au is originally called Julieta au (bcoz this is inspired of "Juliet" song by lipxlip which is the op song heroine run the show) and i switched it to 'medieval au' but doesn't suit it since Bendy's clothes doesn't match the era (and i have no plan on changing it cuz im too lazy WHAHAHAHA), so i changed it to Royalty Au, plus it involved kingdoms, knights, monsters, demons, angels, kings, queens, princes and princesses, magic etc. It was supposed to be a love triangle of us...

But then i added more characters

Here they are. And yes--MUGMAN HAS HAIR (ignore the arrows)

So here are their descriptions:

Cuphead the Ace - prince, prodigy knight of Calix Animi, foster father: king of Dish, King Kettle (or elder kettle behind the doors). He and mugs were found by Kettle when their house was raided by goblins, evil fae and elves bcoz of their potential magic powers. Kettle was a knight and king at the same time, he rescued them. Their parents are dead (not sure if it will be cannikin and demitasse from inky mystery) and so is the Queen, thats why Kettle vowed to protect people from monsters and is very serious abt it. He is the heir to the throne, his smaller twin brother is Mugman. Like King Kettle, he is also brutal towards monsters, he is 24 yrs old. He is infatuated to a woman who is queen of the oceans

Mugman the Beast Tamer - (beast tamer title is inspired by Cannikin) younger twin brother of The Ace, very close to king kettle, he has heart of gold, he has a girlfriend who lives by the sea, 24 yrs old

The Legendary Chalice - or Ms. Chalice is the general (or any rank called, she's a higher up) of the Calix Animi Knights. She was referred to as "Legendary" due to her skills and experience being so vast. She is 26 yrs old

Siren of the Sea - and that's me! (lol, cringe, ok lets do this in 3rd person pov) she is the isolated queen of the sea who rules every bit of seas and oceans. Seas sounds cooler that ocean right? And smaller too, so every kings and queens have underestimated her power. And also her looks, she prefers minimal jewelries and accessories, another reason for people to belittle her. Tho dont mess with her as she can get a little brutal when she gets angry. She likes the pacific ocean and atlantic ocean a lot. Specifically the Mariana trench, its full of monsters and leviathans down there. She had a stoned heart and always looked tired but she met 2 men who eventually softened her, tho she is torn between the Knight and the Demon, 25 yrs old physically, she was sitting on the throne lately, no one knew what her real age is

Cala Maria the Mergon (mermaid+ gorgon lol) - she is isolated as she is known to have gorgon blood. She was saved by a brave knight named Mugman so she gave him a metal ring with a chain holding a fish hook, she's happy seeing mugman wearing it. They had mutual feelings for each other. She knows Siren and is slightly afraid of her, tho she tries her best to befriend her. 26 yrs old

Alice Angel - sent from above, the princess of the Heavens and a healer. People always says that even tho she has horns. She has bright white wings which made her look more angelic aside from her beauty and kindness. She is vibrant yet calm and isnt shaken by Siren's cold attitude, instead, she always talks to her. Over time, siren seemed to respond to her. And thats when they began being friends. 25 yrs old, She is currently inlove with a wolf. And despite all her feminine traits, she won't hesitate to defend those in need when attacked, or help her friends who are troubled. She's a feisty Angel after all.

Boris the Wolf - a handyman who can do everything ; hunter, chef, play the clarinet, scavenger, messanger--anything u can think is something he can do. He is also a quick learner, thats why. He is close friends to a certain Demon and a lover to an Angel, 28 yrs old, he is calm and wise

(okay lemme explain this real quick--I ship Alice angel and boris, not based on Twisted alice and buddy boris, but rather on Tom Boris and Allison Angel. Theyre married in batim/batdr right? And theyre portrayed as Boris and Alice clones so i dont see why not--)

Bendy the Devil Darlin' or Bendy the Ink Demon - known as the Prince of Hell and next to the Throne, he has a playful yet dangerous attitude towards people, which made them fear him. They always obeyed his orders, and when something goes wrong well u might not like it. The only person who seemed to defy him was the Queen of the Seas, she perked his interest and somehow evolved into something demons cannot feel, love. He is 26 physically, but 257 chronologically, his race--Demons--has an ongoing cold war with the dishes

Holly the Sorceress - a character from inky mystery (i added her bcoz i love her so much), she is known as an archeologist, who continues to learn and discover the unknown. She loves playing with runes and runs a shop that sells potions, food and weapons that will help knights and adventurers alike. She's basically like a merchant famously known to play with dangerous runes. Enthusiastic, ambitious and curious, she is 23 yrs old (i aged her up a bit) and has a pearl necklace given to her by a mermaid friend, Cala Maria, when she helped her walk on land. She has her interest on Siren, a mysterious siren who acts cold. She visited her once to buy something, but she was busy playing with runes so she didn't get much hold of it, also she blabbers about how amazing runes and magic are despite her being a human. Whenever night strikes, she rides a broom and flies. She turns to a witch named 'Mayhem'. People say they were the same but some were defending Holly. Holly don't know about this either, so life continues. Little did she know that Mayhem is her Alter ego, she also has a magic cog from a mysterious machinery she has obtained during one of her digs (note: she only digs sites ALONE so this is her own discovery), tho it is very small.

(the Cog from inky mystery is inspired by the Gear in Batim/batdr, however in this au the ink machine does not exist--or might have been but crumbled to dust, anyways it does not serve something in the au)

Now the setting or place of it all? I dunno aesthetics but i like to imagine it as... Just ur usual generic medieval castle stuff, kingdoms. Also there are many kingdoms here, mainly:

Angels : hovering the sky

Demons: below(hell)

Dish : on land, apparently their land is huge and vast, but is surrounded by water

Sea monsters/leviathans: under the sea and oceans of course, full of corals

Normal humans (but they have access to magic) witch, wizards, animal toons etc : land, but separated from the Dish kingdom

For me, its hard to create kingdoms, but maybe i can get a sketch outta my head? That is if im in the mood

Some people of their races move or migrate to other kingdoms, for example, Holly moved to the Dish Kingdom.

I imagine this au to take place mainly on Dish Kingdom but i dunnoooo maybe it will be changed? Not sure

These are my thoughts abt it so far...

I may make some heavy art abt this (i mean, the FINISHED art and not a sketch one) tho im not sureeee since its hard to draw when ur using only a phone, and im drawing digitally using my thumb, but well i guess im gonna adjust myself, thank u for reading all this nonsense and make it up to the end. Ta-ta!

distractions

Strip all your bed sheets and wash them.

Do some dusting around your place.

Clean out your computer of unwanted files by doing a disk clean-up and a disk defragment. Your computer will run better and faster.

Get a couple programs called Ad-Aware, plus Spybot Search and Destroy and scan for adware components. You don't want that stuff on your computer.

Do a free online virus scan at trendmicro.com to make sure your system is clean.

Check online for security updates for your software. Better safe than sorry.

Exercise, exercise, exercise. It's good for you, keeps you fit and moving burning unwanted calories.

Listen to upbeat music and dance around.

Watch TV, but place the remote control far away. This makes you get up when you want to change channel, ect.

If your sitting, twitch your leg. Might as well burn calories while you sit down too.

Play a musical instrument. (For me it's guitar ... I'm terrible but I still play it.)

Design your own thinspirational or pro-ana site. It's actually quite time consuming, fun and it teaches you a skill.

Find songs that relate to ana/mia.

Burn a thinspirational cd.

Make a list of your goals and how/when you want to have them acheived by.

Try out a new hair style.

Exfoliate your body. (Must have very warm shower for this to open your pores.)

Give yourself a make-over.

Have a cool shower.

Go through the song section and download the songs, then burn your own thinspirational CD.

Keep checking back into this site, join my forums and post. (Lol, I know ... cheap pop.)

Do an online research of your favorite musician, and join any Yahoo groups that might be around on this musician.

If you don't already get a Yahoo account and enjoy the benefits like free e-mail account, messanger, groups, games, ect.

Get AOL instant messenger, then chat with others.

Unsure about a piece of information reguarding weight loss / metabolic rate, ect.? Do an online research to make sure your information is as accurate as possible.

Make your own journal, writing down goals - food eaten - calories burned - weight lost - thinspiration pics - motivational things, and such.

Brush your teeth. Get a travel-sized toothbrush and toothpaste set and use it often. A clean minty mouth can make the thought of eating less attractive. Also, if you brush after every meal and every supposed meal, it's less obvious whether you've eaten or not.

Take a shower. Hot steamy water can suppress the appetite, in me at least, and paying close attention to your body will serve to remind you exactly why you're losing weight in the first place. If you feel clean you may not want to "dirty" yourself with food.

Fidget, take up a new hobby, find something to focus on. Find something with which to distract your hands and / or mouth. Chewing gum works for many people, but check for calories. Sewing or stringing beads is good, detail-oriented and monotonous. Keep yourself occupied.

Exercise. Find something you love to do and do it. If, like me, you're too self-conscious to exercise where people can see, then do it when you're alone at home or in a locked room or other safe place. Make it interesting. The best I've found? Dancing. Find music you love, cover the windows up, and don't even think about what you may look like since there's nobody to see. It's a lot of fun, and it helps you get more familiar with your body as well.

Find triggering pictures. You have internet access, I know you do. When you feel like eating, pick an actress or model that you think is particularly beautiful and search for pictures of them ... or for pictures of people you find particularly ugly and fat. It's a slow, involving process and for me at least a great way to avoid eating.

Take a nap. A lot of people think they're hungry when really they're just tired. Also, drink water, since thirst can make you think you're hungry as well.

February 5th, 2024.

I’ve have had some memories come back to me about the boyfriend I had at age 14, he was 20, almost 21… I am having the realization that I was sexually assaulted. That people close to me, as well as him….adults, knew… and did nothing.

I’m actually processing it quite well(I think). I Had one of those good for the soul days with ✨my people✨, crying and pouring it all out into the universe and the memories came OVERWHELMINGLY rushing to the surface.

My story just spewing from my mouth like an over boiling kettle.

I remember him adding me on MSN messanger when I was 14…(June 2005), he had gotten my info through a “mutual friend”, who was 15 or 16 years old at the time.

He had received a black and white photo of me, cuddling into a stuffed Mickey Mouse teddy bear. He thought I was cute. He asked me what type of alcohol I liked and he invited me and my “friend” to a party where he would of course supply all of the alcohol, because he was a gentleman.

He took my virginity that night. I didn’t even understand what that meant. I didn’t understand what sex even meant. Had he worn a condom? I don’t know the answers to the endless questions I had.

I’m having all of these memories come back and I’m so upset by them. However, it’s strange. It’s as if I’m sad for the little kid me. Not the ME that I am today.

I feel so sad that she wasn’t protected. I know that it’s not my fault, because I was a child. I was a little kid. And this adult man took advantage of my innocence and vulnerable family situation. Knowingly feeding alcohol to a minor with the intent of sex.

I also have memories of disturbing pornography on his computer throughout our 11-12 year relationship that ensued. However, I remember being too afraid to come forward to anyone. Or bringing it up to him, in fear of repercussions from him.

But the next steps is where I’m frozen and feel like I can’t move. Do I report it now? Is it possible to report it?

He is married with a little girl on the way. He is the step father to a young girl.

And I am left with the aching memory of crying in that man’s bathroom, covered in dried up blood, fighting back tears, with the disgusting and dizzying taste of blue REV on my breath. I am left to accept the fact that I was a victim of sexual assault.

As I sit about the press post, I recognize the date. It’s his birthday today. I wonder does he recall the day that impacted my life so disturbingly much? Does he know the pain he caused?

HOPE.

Hold on, Pain Ends.

You are stronger than your hardest moments. 🌻

General Info — The Islanders🪼

Some time ago on these islands and various lands roamed huge creatures. Cats with large fangs, winged cats, water cats, cats with horns that acted like bulls.

One day these large cats all left, heading their seperate ways via air, water or land and forever leaving behind these islands.

Many many seasons later a new group of cats arrived — smaller than their large, giant fanged ancestors yet still bulky. They swam through the water as smooth as fish, though they bore no fins. These cats became the first to take up residents in these lands, and they follow the way of nature.

Some time later and three more groups arrived, much to the Islanders' displeasure. These groups called themselves "Clans" and split the land surrounding the Islanders' evenly between themselves. When the Islanders went to meet these "Clans" themselves they were met with sharp tongues and sharper claws. Utterly disgusted with these new self righteous groups, the Islanders declared that should any Clan cat step foot upon their land they would be met with death. The cats then bolted back into the water, not to be seen again.

Moons passed before the Clans decided to send some clanners and their messenger over to the Islanders' land to ask them to at least join them at the once a full moon gatherings.

The Islanders were reluctant to agree, bristling fur and hard, glaring eyes proof enough that they still hadn't forgotten their first run in with the Clans. Eventually, though, the Islanders agreed, and soon adopted a messanger themselves in order to continue communication with the Clans.

Some Islanders, though, are talking. Whispers of revenge and sly glances pass through camp like waves. There's a storm brewing, and the Clans might not be able to withstand it.

Additional Roles

these are roles added within the clans and/or islanders.

the Keeper — cares for the spiders and/or bees of the clan. this allows easy cobweb & honey gathering

Messenger — carries important news between clans. must never face injury nor danger during their travels. they are respected by every cat and do not engage in conflicts.

Interpreter — a cat chosen by the stars for their ability to interpret dreams and signs when others cant figure them out. mysteriously blessed with the ability to speak to other species during times of need.

Gardener — a cat who lives within the medicine dens and tends to the garden of herbs and berries at all times

|

Misc Info

• clanners sleep in any of the shallows with nests scattered throughout camp

• islanders sleep where they want with no dedicated den, though there are various dens/spaces throughout camp to sleep when its too wet/storming/etc

• kits in the clans dont get named until theyre a moon old, which is when theyve developed enough to get a hint of their personality

• clan cats sometimes get suffixs for their names that indicate a certain skill. heres the key to understanding their meanings

• clan leaders pick their successors when theyre to-bes and engage in 1 on 1 training from that point onward

I think you should make an au with fresh but I love your artwork!

Hi anon [3[3[3[3 what do you mean by an au with fresh? Im happy to but i have no idea if you mean putting him in situations or giving him a different host (fresh!ink, fresh!error, ect.) or anything else

Adding some thoughts of my own anyway-

@/ junipers-insects (i think.?) came up with an idea for a fresher sans which is basically fresh but from the 20s (I THINKKK??), and that seems so so cool to me, been wanting to design that for a while,, (you should follow them)

Au where Fresh sans becomes a sort of ally for the star sanses, gets his own pin and everything, then betrays them in some way. He reminds them that hes a parasite, not a skeleton. Why would he let them manipulate him like that? Then he snaps his fingers n ink turns into fresh ink for the duration of the battle until fresh slips away.

One of my favorites but Dream, Nightmare, Error, Ink, and Reapertale's inhabitants are gods, Fresh is aa,, not a messanger, not a servant but. I dont know the word right now but hes basically a "we dont talk about him and we leave him alone unless he gets out of line" type guy. Hes a strong mortal that cant feel any emotion ofther than hunger and fear (of reaper)

Not really a fresh au but it works- paperjam wants to join the bad sanses, error, ink, and dream tell him not to but gradient supports him until he finds out from fresh (and others) how they really are and that pj will basically die if he joins them by trauma, fear, or dust, killer, horror, and cross. Pj joins out of teen rebellion and hate for his "parents", and only ever sees ink and dream during missions, never error or gradient. Fresh is important in this because hes the one to always give sly remarks on how to get out of the gang, but has never been in it. He eventually helps pj (and cross) leave the bad sanses and they live happily ever after the end.

*shines the OC rant laser on you*

i can't decide who to talk about so you get (at least) one fun fact about everyone. and most will be meta

brass lining: my first ever iterator oc. they were made over a year ago. they are my most "typical" (working to solve the great problem) iterator and though i don't develop much for them, they are important because i use them as a reference point for my other iterators

flight of the crows: their antenna are really hard for me to draw. why did i design them like that? because it looks cool. they are somehow both very emotionally intellegent and also unable to figure out how to handle other peoples emotions

chains by summer: originally, i based him off prometheus but now he more resembles achillies. i wouldve added more ancient greek influence to his design and atititude but greece nor a greece-like culture exist in rain world

three star songs: personally my favorite iterator color pallette that i made (i didnt make paradox). i consider her one of my more underrated iterators because i love her so damn much but i feel others are more interested in summer or paradox. NOTHING wrong with that by the way

paradox of creation: their lore was originally concieved because i am autistic about the immune system. now one of the greatest explorations of iterator anatomy and physiology ive done

salt wind blows: stole his name off of a username i saw somewhere. i dont really talk about her much but she's a secret favorite of mine

garden of bones: unrevealed because i want ita designer to post them first but their name comes from a song i thought was a sick iterator name for months

all the immunerators: each of them have at least one dot on their face, inspired by cell nucleus :)

equinox of winter: when i made them, i wanted to try drawing iterators different from what i usually do and in canon. very much will draw more bulky iterator ocs in the future!

call of the blade: she has three dots because she is based on a neutrophil. neutrophils have a three-lobed nucleus!

a perfect tragedy: it never moved in its can because the puppet is literally attached to the walls. its other structuremates cannot understand how it doesnt want to fidget

rising memory: vaguely inspired by the same origin as my sona! archivist from inscryption. help

bead from the branch: bead's body markings are based on a simplified drawing of antibodies, which b cells produce

blue lotus: already explained the origins but more flowers grow as it gets colder

arsonist: my first ever slugcat oc. her markingd were inspired by a black kite! if you know, you know

scholar: also vague inspiration from archivist inscryption... they have seen many iterators in their day and will keep meeting them too!

livewire: a vulture even smaller then a slugcat. three star songs made it after figuring out ghost was a bad messanger

the yoinky sploinky: two headed lizard i never did anything with and still has its placeholder name. based on the fact that reptiles are more often hatched with two heads then anything else

neuron slugpups: my friend blip was taking inspiration for designs to make. i said neuron flies. i later took home neuron pups for paradox

mixtape: bright blue coop pup i found. themed around an inspector

heart: an artificer sona :)
