i was thinking again about that peak cyno lore in his briefcase’s description of how he likes to trip people up by carrying it around when he’s not working sometimes and now i feel like he would absolutely randomly ask alhaitham to be snippy with him in public just to try and make criminals think he was off his game from a fake spousal argument

casey is obvs funny with this rivalry stuff because on the one hand he's very 'well I don't care who I beat' (lie) and 'I don't motivate myself using my rivals' (also a lie) and then he's also repeatedly emphasising that valentino was ONE of his biggest rivals and he only competed against him a few years... like a lil side quest in the story of his career. Those Few Years where valentino was his big rival. whereas dani and jorge were his cohort so he did compete with them for a greater span of time... and this is technically true and does MATTER but it is also extremely noticeable in his output which rivalry he has the most thoughts about. and yes casey would say that this is because everyone ELSE cares the most about That One Rivalry the most and also his opponent being an annoying dickhead means it's the one he has the most complaints about... but at a certain point, it doesn't really matter, because there's still one rivalry you're talking about way more than any other. you can tell that he's at least given jorge's interiority a bit of thought, kinda went 'well he was arrogant but also Learnt From The Error Of His Ways and was maybe misunderstood so' -- but also he's not going beyond that, he's not examining jorge's soul, and he's not even doing any of that with dani. it's very much a rhetorical commitment to those other two rivalries. ultimately the point is that he's doing what he can to not talk up his biggest rivalry TOO much, because, you see. he Did Not Care That Much. (lie.) now objectively speaking this kind of framing literally does not matter, who cares which one of these was the most meaningful rivalry, but it's interesting that it matters to him!! casey's problem is that he is extremely sensitive and cares deeply about what other people say about him, but one of the things he's most sensitive about is the idea that he could let himself be mentally affected by ANYTHING, worst of all his rivals. they cannot be granted that much power over him. and all of this has kinda funny consequences in that he has pretty rigid patterns in how he talks about this stuff that are at times quite convoluted because he has to simultaneously emphasise that a) none of his rivals massively mattered to him, b) That Rival didn't matter more than the others, c) what That Rival did to him was completely beyond the pale, and d) none of that affected him mentally whatsoever. at most one of these is true. there are so many things casey wants so badly not to care about but it keeps spilling out of him anyway, this oozing sludge of resentment and repressed hopes and desires and frustration and longing and bitterness. he keeps giving himself away... he cares so much and he can't stand it

i do wish i was better at communicating with people online and through technology. i wander into conversations and make new ones all the time irl with random people and its fun but im like hyping myself to type out a single response to a Post. and to say nothing of how difficult it is to get me to say something in a discord server

[freshcut-chetney]

okay but what if I turned what was supposed to be a quick fic surrounding *one* of Neve's case into a 2 part (maybe more???) fic with at least two other interconnected cases and also add a lil of slow burn. as a treat

Still thinking about hcs while cleaning out my notes, and like, this one sorta goes as both a hc and a random design choice I've kept, (tho I haven't posted or saved any of the related doodles :/) but in considering how much Fulcrum's k-class reformatting changed him, I really like the idea of it throwing off his original proportions some

Like, k-classers generally all appear fairly similar build-wise.

There's a blueprint that's being followed there, and those that are being reformatted are going to have to fit it.

(Unless there's multiple blueprints, different size classes of k-cons, and Fulcrum was just caught somewhere in the middle zone size and payload-wise?)

So some mechs are going to have to be broken down to fit into this new shell, either by getting stretched out or pulled inwards to be ultimately crammed into shape.

Cybertronians of course come in all shapes and sizes, and they don't always align with humanoid-esque proportions, obviously, but I like to think the k-class reformatting offered an awkward and impractical in-between of all types.

Of course Fulcrum fit into that general humanoid-shaped category before the refit, regardless of whatever his alt-mode kibble or lack thereof would have added. But he's just the standard non-combat levels of lightly armored, average height, though a little lanky already, but generally sort of boringly, humanoidly, practically proportioned.

Then comes the refit.

To make more space for the bulk of his built-to-shatter shell, arms and legs are broken, hastily extended, and loosely jammed back in place, leaving them slightly too long, hinged a little too low and off balance, and uncomfortably loose in their sockets.

Everything but the barest essentials of his core and inner-framework are gutted to make space for the payload. Leaving his balance entirely off-kilter, with long hollowed out limbs built solely to surround the heavy core with an armored casing, that aren't at all altered with any natural movement or livability in mind.

Basically this fine specimen-

-just, a lot more refined and detailed.

Training would've essentially amounted past propaganda and how best to die, to mainly just learning how to sit, stand, and walk just enough to get to the jumping point with this new, disproportioned, and too awkwardly long, (or too short depending on the mech), k-class frame.

And like, this all doesn't stray too far from what we see of his initial design on Clemency. Him just sorta being long and awkward and scuffed to hell. But I like to think that awkward build doesn't change much after Spinister, assumedly, rebuilt his frame after Clemency.

The k-class alterations are bone deep, so to speak. To change them back at this point would require an even more strenuous and invasive refit than the first one, and safe to say Fulcrum obviously wouldn't be too terribly keen on that, even if they could afford it.

So all Spinister can really do reframing-wise, is just kinda sculpt and refine it all around his reformatted structure to turn it into less of a cage-like shell and more of an actual body.

Like bulking up plating in more natural places for balance, along with adding more breathable seams and flexible angles for better movement, while of course making sure to tighten those loose joints as best he can. Though he still has to account for the longer limbs and now empty core, so it's definitely not the same weight and balance of Fulcrum's original build. But, it is far more livable than what Styx had left him with.

I don't have much else to say on it, besides how him getting used to his frame being taller and longer is definitely an interesting nugget to roll around mentally outside of design inspo, and its one of my fav hcs to see mentioned in art, fics, or posts. (along with him having chronic pain bcs of the weird shitty joints)

Little things like him taking a few months to figure out how sit comfortably with new longer legs- folding them against himself awkwardly, or streching out in odd positions -much to the other Scav's amusement, or learning to keep himself from catching his arms and bulky shoulder plating constantly on things, which is also funny to everyone, until he knocks something over while they're trying to hide, then it's less funny.

Idk, there's tons of angst potential surrounding his reformat of course, but in canon he's all mostly vibes, so idk, it's funny to think of how he'd try his best to take his weird, gangly frame in stride outside of moments of despair. He's doing his best to make the nigh praying mantis levels of ~long~ and ~scrawny~ work ok

why don't people give a shit about samantha myers for as much as shes related to nathan? i think shes really sweet, and she works well in nathan's narrative in before the storm ngl. im intrigued by their good ending because i enjoy a good "what if," but the more i think about it, i'm pretty curious about exploring the potential of what could've possibly happened for them to have drifted and samantha to have left blackwell if i were to actually consider it as canon. also samanthas limited dialogue sans nathan is actually super cute. i thought she was into chloe at first LMAO

It's so funny seeing pretty regular posts about trsmp because I missed when it started and just never bothered to get into it. Now that my brain has freed me from the height of my qsmp fixation I think I have a genuine outsiders perspective and it's hilarious.

To me, all the posts about trsmp are like "omg Peepee and Poopoo are finally happy but I just know that Weesnaw is gonna come in and ruin it. Plus now that Grunch is on yellow I hope we'll get more DortGrunch plotlines"

rly thinking of buying a cheap digital camera so ill have a reason to go outside and take pics of random stuff.. i sometimes do it w my phone (typically pics of like, flowers on the street or interesting lighting or whatever) but it never looks good w a phone camera. and the cheaper digicams would prob have a quality reminiscent of the shitty little digicam i had as a kid and young teen which i used to take pictures around the neighborhood and whatnot, which is what im looking for more than Serious Photography

[sonknuxadow]

i think i do want amy and rouge to be in the next sonic movie, especially if its gonna be an sa2 adaptation, but i cant help but worry that if they try to introduce shadow AND rouge AND amy in the same movie then at least one of those characters (most likely amy. tbh.) isnt gonna get the amount of screentime and development that they deserve. especially considering in the game timeline amy was introduced much earlier and by sa2 was already an established character while rouge and shadow were the newcomers. and then theres also the human characters who are gonna be making the cast a lot bigger than it was in the game so more people to divide the screentime among. like what if amy is in sonic 3 and she gets like 5 minutes of screentime and her big moment with shadow is given to another character again
