How easy is it to subdue a giant Cetus / sea monster?

Shockingly easy if it’s ticklish (and if it’s your friend, most importantly). A little gift for @macrolago ft. Perry the Bilby and Bruce (Cetus form)!

[destinypaw]

@chainsxwsmile Since you’ve done a great job at drawing Bruce the Cetus and yeas it was BEAUTIFUL!! so I decided to make an art about Bruce introducing to red the kangaroo (Even they don’t even met each other before Lol)

I mean I think it’s such a wonderful art! (Also I love When you draw my oc Lucia I appreciate that!)

can you tell us more abt stapler?

Thumbs up emoji... I'm glad you wanna know more about her!!

There was a whole... Thing involving her circumstances that needed to be dealt with for the safety of her and her parents. Legally, she is listed as only a Bilby Toon. Nothing about how she's actually a White-tailed Jackrabbit+Chainsaw Consultant.

Chip's involvement with her is kept incredibly under wraps and anonymous. This is why her last name is specifically Winkles rather than Revvington or Winkles-Revvington. As far as anyone knows, Stapler's father is unknown to the public.

Both of these above points allows at least enough comfort to have her attend a Private School. Parent/Teacher Conferences means that only Perry comes.

In fact... a lot of Stapler's care falls onto Perry. While Chip is absolutely doing a lot better mentally and is in a much, much better place than he ever was while employed under C.O.G.S. Inc., he still has to be careful. He needs to be able to step away if necessary. He's immensely bothered by the fact, even though it's mandatory for his and his family's safety.

Enough of the more rough facts though. Stapler grows fast (though she was a big baby to begin with), getting nearly as tall as Perry by the time she's 3 years old and she still wants uppies. (Don't worry, Chip can still give her uppies.)

She was also named by Chip. ...His excuse is that toons have silly names regularly. ...And she looks like a Stapler. ...If you squint.

Her eyes are tiny and beady under the glasses. She's also very near-sighted. Flunky-type beat.

She also remains non-verbal for quite a while, only starting to talk in the middle of her 3rd year and even then preferring to be quiet.

Not having a mouth (her "teeth" aren't actual teeth. it's white steel) might be part of this.

In comparison, she picks up on Sign Language very quickly and prefers it instead.

Her favorite toys are what's basically a Suit-equivalent to Barbie. She fucking loves playing dolls and making up the most convoluted plots ever. She will hand you one of her Mingler dolls and tell you she's a wanted criminal.

at some point she happens upon Chip's metal band CD and merch collection and this becomes her canon event

some brief world-building notes/headcanons based on more recovered materials

• The Albatross Empire & the Outback are completely separate locations, the former being some considerable distance out at sea.

• Which, then, it makes sense that Perry would have been asked to bring the Royal Egg to the pelicans rather than directly to the albatrosses, as it also seems to be that case that the pelicans do live in/near the Outback as well as being regularly in contact with the Empire. (And Perry very clearly does not look like an animal that is equipped to travel across the ocean. And he very much isn't.)

• The pelicans sort of serve the albatrosses through offering advisory and guidance. (Sort of in a 'seeking guidance from your wise elders' sort of way.) They have a strong sense of moral duty, and loyalty to the Empire, and usually prefer to approach problems thoughtfully and responsibly.

• The eagles also seem to serve the Empire, or at least somewhat regularly convene with them, but their feelings (or at least particularly Hotspur's, the seeming leader of the flock) are a bit less innocent than the pelicans'. They more or less see the albatrosses (and pelicans) as a whole as fools and cowards for the way they prefer to seek civil or peaceful solutions to problems whereas the eagles would otherwise be much more eager to attack (literally) and eradicate problems. While they display respect for the Albatrosses' nobility and their royal authority in order to stay around, they (mostly Hotspur) tend to see themselves as much more fitting to run the Empire.

• The Empress, by default, does not fully trust Hotspur, and can occasionally be wary of his motives because of this. Yet she and the Emperor continue to maintain their relationship with he and his flock.

• Hotspur has a wife(?)

• To some extent, Perry very much believes that he wishes to be a 'larrikin' despite having basically no suitable qualities of one, and having a sort of naive almost glorified impression of what it means to be a larrikin. For example: Larrikins in the Outback live for adventure and good times; and they often live daringly and recklessly to seek those things (albeit sometimes with limited regard for the impact their actions may have on others, to some extent or another); they are independent and unconventional and confident. Perry, on the other hand, is very conscientious and timid, at times he feels sympathy for even complete strangers more deeply than any other animal would. In a sense, he "cares too much" to really be an authentic larrikin. And not only in the way of caring for others but also for himself in the way of being rather anxious and hesitant to do many things that are against the best interest of his wellbeing, whether the threat is real or merely perceived. Still, we have evidence to suggest that he's not exactly incapable of standing up and pushing back when it's necessary in situations where he really has no other good options. (And/or in defense of a smaller, younger loved one.)

• It's possible that Perry has actually unknowingly misconstrued a desire to simply be overall stronger/braver and more confident and self-advocating (and, maybe, also hoping to ultimately changing others' perspectives that he is nothing but a weak little bilby, if he's lucky?), with a desire to be 'one of the cool kids', so to speak. For lack of a better term. Resulting in such a contradictory goal for himself. Perhaps he may even believe that, achieving this, he'll finally regain some sense of belonging in the world after having been cast out from his home and family.

• He's also a bit defeatist about it, though. Having convinced himself that he isn't capable of achieving it on his own, anyway, he doesn't really try very hard anymore to change things or to stray from what he knows.

• Kylie does not know, to any extent, about Perry's more adventurous desires. In part of his defeatism, he keeps those feelings pretty private. Among other reasons. Least of all is not the concern of possibly putting ideas in her head and only encouraging her already present yearning for exploration and travel.

Perry (Bilby)

I watched a short film called "Bilby", and it was pretty interesting! So I drew the main character of the short film, Perry (which I found out his name on a larrikins wiki article)!

Too bad DreamWorks cancelled that Larrikins movie a few years back.

[tymime]

Bilby is one of the best shorts I've seen in ages. It's a been a long time since any animation warmed my heart so much. Sure, there's been plenty of Pixar movies that made me cry, but warm fuzzies that made me feel all gooshy inside? I can't remember the last time that's happened. And the main character has quickly become one of my favorites. It's definitely worth mentioning that Bilby is actually the end result of a cancelled feature-length musical DreamWorks was making called Larrikins. Look up the article on the Lost Media Wiki if you wanna read more about it. I really hope one day they can finish it.

Just a quick  ☯ test so I can get back into the groove of writing my boi Andrew again

It's been weeks since Andrew's big incident. He hasn't been contacted or in touch with anyone during all that time, mostly spent reminiscing and thinking about how things could've been. How they would've been better. Enter a big kangaroo and his small bilby pal, both of whom have caught Andrew's attention.

He briefly reconsidered not saying anything, yet he persevered anyway. This may be the only chance he'd get to engage in conversation with anyone besides himself for months! "Are you the only ones?" He asked the two quickly. Andrew worried that behind them there might've been an angry crowd ready to tear him apart. The bilby and the kangaroo stared at the toad confused.

"Who know?" He elaborated. The two still looked on, lost in the context.

"...That I'm here?" He now whispered. Again, the fear of being theoretically torn to shreds haunted his conscience. He didn't want anyone else to hear his location, should they perhaps be ready to rip him apart again. The bilby finally answered. "I think so, but I don't..."

"Phew! Last thing I need is to be mobbed while I'm still moist, from my douched-on upper scene."[citation needed] Andrew was relieved. He had a lot of weight on his shoulders upon these two stumbling across him, and he relaxed his muscles once he found out he was safe... for now. "You're...?" The bilby was about to ask the toad who he was, but he began to ramble before Perry could get any more words out.

"Although to be honest, it's quite nice bumping into you." Andrew paced about the two as he explained his situation. The bilby and kangaroo were finally about to be introduced to his character, and for once in a long while, Andrew embraced their soon-to-be-found knowledge.

"I value the privacy, I really do. I needed a bit of me time... Y'know, a little medititive solitude, but it's just so boring, y'know? Sorry..."

(at least for now)

Andrew spoke and gloated for a solid minute before the kangaroo started doubting Andrew's sanity. "Okay... Uh, Perry, should we get moving?" Red whispered to Perry's ear. Still the toad continued to monologue, even breaking the two's space together to regain his attention.

"Can you imagine what it's like, looking like this?" He looked over towards Red's direction, mildly distraught. "Aww, of course you can't. Look at your thin lips!" He pressed his gleaming finger onto the kangaroo's mouth, before backing up to nonchalantly compliment his bilby companion.

"Y'know in a way, I envy him, his cloddish visage... If I looked less amazing, maybe it wouldn't have happened!" Andrew let his shoulder go of Perry as he slowly began to slightly break down, over the unspoken events of his past. "What wouldn't?" Perry asked Andrew.

He was suddenly back to being shy and hesitant, and began to stumble on, and think carefully about, his own words. "The tragic thing... that... happened." Perry was puzzled still, at what must've happened to Andrew. The bilby softly spoke a simple "What?"

"Would you mind if we stopped talking about it?" The cane toad suddenly raised his voice. His mindset immediately switched to being a drama queen in just mere milliseconds. Red began to hop away from the toad. "Great idea." He sarcastically said as he grabbed Perry. Andrew instantly saw the kangaroo's efforts to carry the bilby onward to his own path, and quickly grabbed the bilby by his arm back, before looking back again.

"It's very painful!" Andrew attempted to bait the two into hearing his story through and through, but the kangaroo was having none of it. "Okay handsome, thanks for sharing. Let's go." Red said whilst winking at Perry, signaling the bilby to follow in his footsteps. "I'm sorry, we have to leave." The bilby quietly adjourned to Andrew, as he slowly started backing up towards the direction Red was heading.

"Oh yeah, no worries, yeah sure. See ya." Andrew quickly replied back. He tried to act like their departure was nothing more than a tasteless fly, but deep down he knew that it meant the world to him, being able to speak to someone whom hasn't had a negative bias towards him in such a long time. He thought it over and decided... Where those two were heading, perhaps Andrew should tag along with?

“I’m not gonna hurt ya!”

MY ART IS DEFINITELY MASTERPIECE!! 😈😈

I just want larrikins so badly! It was supposed to be 100% CUTE! And heartwarming

[kettterer]

Sorry again for being really inactive lately. I have nothing much to say beside that I have been horribly unmotivated for the past several months. In make-up for that, I drew a full-body image of Perry the Bilby from the cancelled film Larrikins. I am kind of interested in the franchise, and I wonder what the film would have been if it wasn't cancelled. Of course, This little guy belongs to Dreamworks.
