Everlasting Lotus Waters' nicknames for her Juniors. The "Silent Valley" Local Group (Sector S2). Here's a brief run-down:

Everlasting Lotus Waters (ELW) Group Senior, Medical Facility. She's very busy tending to her Patients, all of whom she loves dearly. Cares about her Juniors, too, though ISGOS is the only one she has a "good" relationship with. Offloads most of her Senior duties to PU.

Enduring Calls Of Vices (ECOV), an Iterator focused on Hospitality. Post-MA, their protocols have degraded, and they've started releasing a lot of pent-up resentment and spite. Kind of a "hater."

Infinite Sunsets Glimmering On Snowdrifts (ISGOS), an Iterator Project in the image of a Citizen, Agricultural Facility (supplies ELW). Relatively cheery.

Perpetual Umbra (PU) Group Supervisor, a MIP Unit focused on supporting their groupmates (and alleviating ELW of her duties). Tries their best.

Starlight Symphony (SLS), a MIP Unit whose structure is a sort of Tourist Site? Has buildings for photoshoots and production of other promotional materials. Has trouble speaking to her non-MIP groupmates most of the time.

Frosted Briar (FB), a MIP Unit with the mind / personality of a child. Structure is connected to Symphony's, though this isn't really an issue since MIP Unit structures are so much smaller. Avoids their non-MIP groupmates most of the time.

ISGOS belongs to @cloverlady and ECOV belongs to @fauxbia

also these nicknames are subject to change. ECOV definitely had a nickname at some point, but i haven't figured it out yet whoops.

Various Whiteboard doodles. design things and dress-ups.

that fucking bird I hate

TWR design brainstorming. also her mark guide I keep forgetting

more doodles of that bird I hate.

why am i making a tag for maid dress specifically? i don't know. they're very fun to draw and very simple yet so customizable. OH not just that. it's because of the maid cafe (tm). the canonical MIP Maid Cafe Fundraising event yay <3

Also it's interesting to look back at a time when I was less confident about erasing my stray marks because I didn't fully understand whiteboard...

yknow what more tags why not yes yes my lovely categorization all of it woo!!!

These are from Jade. They're related to a groupchat titled "Girltalk". It originated in Boxline Canon with Stellar Divinity (SLS), Paths Left Untaken, and Chime Of a Bell. Gathering Petals was added later.

In the Projectline Canon (relating to the current rp canon) it formed with PLU, COAB, SD (SLS), and Flowering Salvation. Gathering Petals and Synthesis of Light were added later. It should be noted that Gathering Petals is an offshoot of Flowering Salvation so if you ever see the same puppet tagged with different names thats why. tbh i dont have time to explain the complexities of clover's lore. Anyways, COAB is largely inactive rn and SLS currently seems closer to FS and PLU than anyone else.

in main canon i know SLS is friends with PLU and assumedly GP and FS too. I think chime can also exist too as a treat. i like idols.

patch notes

- LOF is BITCHLESS!!

- Biscuit is CO_05 now.

author's notes

Umbra isn't studying SHIT they just wanted some soft little friends

To SLS, PU, LOF individually: How did you obtain your slugcat? (The one that you fed.)

[BROADCAST HANDLED BY ADMIN AND OVERSEER]

admin note: thank you @cloverlady for helping with the coloring!! and adding some shading too hehe

Also, it should be noted that Umbra is not being entirely forthcoming here... But about what exactly, I'll let you figure it out!! :P

jolly co-op and other boxline-related doodles. and sls miku ig.

rot plu and stuff.

idk where to put these so here is fine enough ig, lol

none of these are super relevant to main canon

[mip-dev-center]

this post is momentous. my first interaction with corvus. we would later go on to create many egregious ethical violations

Saw @mewguca ‘s beautiful oc EoLW and just had to draw them! I love the combination of mechanical and classical Chinese elements :D

(Also can your anti-great problem oc and my anti-great problem oc be friends 👉👈)

[mip-dev-center]

series of jade ( @fauxbia ) doodles. featuring normal plu and sls cat. and slugcar plu

[mip-dev-center]

clover drawings from the boxline canon. in that timeline, LOF dated FS and SLS dated GP.

iirc the thorns drawing was made bc FS puppet is pretty tall, lol. lifted into time-out for her crimes... (TWR is good at bullying MIP Units, but not so good at dealing with proper Iterators.)

i am uploading these bc the LOF face is really really cute

[mip-dev-center]

a truly momentous occasion; the most annoying pairing of all time's first interaction

(sigh he should really brainwash director it would benefit everyone really)

@ideavian 's OC lore is pretty cool. Big fan of the pearl infection so I gave it to my OC

bonus nonsense

art and character by @fauxbia

This is Enduring Calls Of Vices. They're one of SLS/PU/FB's groupmates. Lovely design, though their personality... less so

(with the updated MIP Classification System, they'd be a part Wave 2. (Waves being the bigger classification and Gens being the smaller sub-measurements.))

They don't get along very well with their groupmates, but especially not PU. This is unfortunate, as PU desperately wishes to help them.

stupid bullshit compilation feat twenty long spears pierce the sky. he belongs to prismsoup. (Sol)

second image is related to thorns. my nonbinary sibling in the void you programmed the Iterator

"who is hoarder?" Sol's horrible beast that attacks mip units
