WHY DO THEY LOOK SO GOOFY

[cassettebeastssource]

To celebrate the 1-year anniversary of Cassette Beasts' release, Jay Baylis of Bytten Studio has made a Twitter thread to share some behind-the-scenes stuff about Archangels:

Great game 👍 I see why people love it

Aeri wandered around NRC, decidedly on the look out for any of the other members of the Sheep. If he's going to be part of this, he may as well meet them, right?

He flew across the main campus, eyes peeled down below. After a not so fruitful time finding absoloutely no one, Aeri landed on one of the rooftops with a disgruntled huff.

@aeri-and-co (mod note: you can choose who interacts with Aeri! :>)

A tall girl with violet hair an Ignihyde school uniform and a slightly taller woman with white hair and (the complete bastardization of) a Heartslabyul school uniform could be seen sitting at a picnic table in the distance.

The two seemed to be chatting about nothing in particular, with the Ignihyde girl typing away on a computer while she listened to her friend, nodding intently.

We have Pokémon at Home!

Round 1 matchup 29

Propaganda for Morgante:

"i just think shes neat :)"

Propaganda for Anatan:

"They evolved through the power of love and they are the indominable backbone of my team :)"

More info under the cut

I could feel, in real time, my brain censoring whatever this was, replacing it in my mind's eye with something barely more palatable.

Chapter 4 is here!

[anon-is-a-simp]

[demispark]

Ain't it interesting that Aleph's head is made of glass, and his ex-wife Morgante's attacks are centered around broken glass?

[yakitori-queen]

same old story

[kanohivolitakk]

Friendly reminder that not only do these two share a voice actor, their voice actor is Tara Platt...aka for anyone who has played Fire Emblem Three Houses, Edelgards VA.

As someone who has dedicated most of the last five years of her life to Three Houses I find this factoid deeply amusing. Like when I went to the wiki and found out Morgante was voiced by Tara Platt I fucking screamed.

Honestly Morgante does have similar voice to Edelgard...Kuneko, not so much

Hi :) Could I have the source for "wherever Arthur walks, plants die"? That's very "Holly King" coded of him

Sure thing! It's from Triad 23 in the Red Book of Hergest. Here's a translation by John Rhŷs and John Gwenogvryn Evans:

Three Red Ravagers of the Island of Britain: Rhun son of Beli, and Lleu Skilful Hand, and Morgant the Wealthy. But there was one who was a Red Ravager greater than all three: Arthur was his name. For a year neither grass nor plants used to spring up where one of the three would walk; but where Arthur went, not for seven years.

Peniarth MS 54 lists "{t}hree red-spotted ones of the Island of Prydain. Arthur; and Run son of Beli; and Morgant Mwynfawr" (W.F. Skene's translation), which probably means the same thing, since both include Arthur, Rhun son of Beli, and someone named Morgant. In Welsh, "Morgant the Wealthy" is Morgant Hael, and I haven't been able to determine whether he and Morgant Myfanwyr are the same person.

Thanks for the ask!

Speaking of Cassette Beasts. On the off chance anyone here is wondering what happened to Same Old Story it's still coming along! Got a taste of Arthurian lit. in one of my english courses and realized how much fun I could have if I became more knowledgeable on the subject. More stuff's on the way I'm just in the Research Pit 👍

[eggchjf]

i feel like i'm just bullying her at this point

[flock-of-black-sheep]

"Waitwaitwaitwaitwait... what do you mean the boss finally got access to my profile for this thing...?"

"Newt. I told you. It wasn't him, it was me? And besides, wouldn't it help for all my little furies out there to know all about one of my besties???"

"Morg, I-I don't think I want my info going public like that!?!"

"Eh don't worry... It's not like you're gonna be doxxed or anything! It's just enough so that people can learn about you!"

"B-but what about my record- gah, nevermind... you've already dropped it, haven't you?"

"...maybe? Is this gonna get my ass beat?"

"No... but only because I don't fight women who could easily beat my ass anyways..."

"I'll make it up to you somehow... ooh! How's a trip to that salad bar in town? It's new and I've heard it has some good stuff?"

"...Fine, but I'm holding you to it. And you're gonna be paying."

"Yeah, yeah... no worries. I'm the kinda gal who always keeps a promise."

"A rather flighty and neurotic student who looks up to Izem. His destructive capabilities and 'bull-in-a-china-shop' tendencies have earned him the nickname 'The One Man Stampede'. He's set to inherit the Black Sheep when Izem leaves for his internship."

Unique Magic: "OHKO Stampede!!!" [Lit: Trample the Earth] - Newton becomes twice as fast as normal and when he sprints, the earth under his feet will be disturbed - think kicking up dust/mud/gravel/etc. ; It's like a one-man stampede (get it?)
