Since starting to draw fanart for rainworld, tumblr has been recommending lots of rainworld stuff, which is cool, except for when it tries to push drama onto my feed lol it almost feels like your friend’s parents arguing when you’re over at their house

So just in case anyone wondered or cared, I don’t know anything about any drama, and I also don’t care. Who did what to who when where and why- idk idc I’m just making fanart of the funny robots and slugs!

Rain World Discourse Outta Nowhere:

It kind of annoys me when people just assume Artificer immediately went "I will obliterate every Scavenger alive" as soon as her pups were killed. I even saw someone say something about how Arti was bad for targeting all scavengers as revenge and not specifically the ones that did it. Like... if Artificer did exactly that and killed only the scavengers directly responsible for her pups' death, she would've made enemies of the whole tribe, and then after the inevitable result of more scavengers getting killed while attacking her they'd tell all their friends, and after a few cycles of back and forth escalation you'd end up with the exact same situation of Arti being on the 'Kill On Sight' list of every scavenger tribe in the general Five Pebbles Sphere Of Influence. There is no evidence that this is not how it happened in canon.

This is not "local scug wakes up and chooses genocide," it's "Highly aggressive and territorial animals' survival strategy of being more trigger happy than American cops bites them in the ass when they meet an animal with exactly the same attitude towards threats as them and the firepower to back it up."

Thoughts on the rainworld fandom so far and also what do you think of artificer x scav king?

The fandom has been amazing to me! I've never been in a fandom so diverse and accepting as Rain World. I've never been so overwhelmed by the creativity of a fandom before. It's just baffling to me. It's something I've never experienced before, so I accept it with open arms.

I'm looking forward to contributing more to the fandom anytime I'm not busy with college. Which has been a hassle the past few weeks. So I'm sorry for the lack of content in my other blog @rw-repurposed but I hope I can go back to making content for it again! Mainly comics- because I see people liking those!

As for the ship- uhhhh.... no comments lmao. People ship what they wanna ship as long as it's not problematic. :)

I prefer Fishstick for a ship, so ye.

[rainworldconfessions]

(updated 1/5/24)

A blog for confessions related to Rain World, because it's about time one existed.

Rules

1. What kinds of confessions - About the game itself, fandom, characters, headcanons, criticism, positivity, etc. Spoilers will not be tagged.

2. No explicit NSFW unless it's elated to in-game content or general discussion. Mild suggestive jokes are fine though to mod discretion

3. No harassment of devs or individual content creators; serious claims need to be backed up with proof. No direct namedropping of anyone simply because you dislike them; it must be related to serious claims.

4. No heavy discourse. I will not post anything related to pro- or anti- shipping debates- Discussion of a pairing simply because you dislike it is fine.

5. If a topic is dragging on too long, i have the right to cut it short. Confessions may be rejected for any reason though if within the rules it will likely be posted.

I feel like how you analyze Rainworld (the ancients society in particular) heavily depends on well. . . Your views of suicide to be honest. How tired you are of life. How you feel about the horrors of being immortal.

I’ve found most people come to wildly different conclusions based on how those concepts seem to effect them in particular.

Are the ancients stupid creatures chasing the one thing they can’t have just because they don’t yet have it? Are they a logical and reasonable society tortured by a constant state of dying and returning to life? Was it cruel to deny iterators their own means of escaping the cycle? Or are some iterators just as ignorant of life’s beauty as their creators.

I suppose we’re sitting here debating the same things iterators did after the mass ascension. I have my own answers to those questions but what I’ve learned via many Reddit posts and video essays is that my answers are not everyone’s gut reaction. It keeps our debate lively I suppose

If Rain World had photorealistic graphics this is what you'd see reflected in Looks To the Moon's eyes when you eat her neurons

when you guys see this post getting reposted for the 3948734987th time just remember: i'm op, me and a buddy did this at work while bored, it's real and afterwards my buddy threw pennies at the motherboard until it shorted something and stopped turning on

someone tagged this Rain World, which I haven't played but I've been looking up lore for, not directly replying to avoid spoilers but as I understand it the lore is that:

Death looks like this

The combined efforts of dozens if not hundreds of city-sized supercomputers representing the crowning achievement of an entire civilization have failed to find a way to exit the roundabout other than "fuck it just drive over the sidewalk"

At this point everyone has just gone "fuck it" and driven over the sidewalk except for a couple idiots who got stuck on the medians.

The supercomputers are also stuck in the roundabout, and their programming prevents them from violating traffic laws

One of the supercomputers attempted to hack himself to be able to violate traffic laws. He failed but got honked at by another supercomputer who he was carelessly running off the road, which caused him to get distracted and spin out of control, causing a massive crash which has strewn burning wreckage everywhere and also taken out a fire hydrant.

As a result the roundabout is now flooded / on fire

Raccoons and possums have taken over the roundabout

A third supercomputer taught a raccoon to use jumper cables to try to help the innocent party in the massive crash, with marginal success because at this point her car is upside down in a sinkhole that opened up in the middle of the road.

DEATH IS A ONE WAY STREET BUT THAT DIDN'T STOP ME FROM COMMITTING ONE HELL OF A TRAFFIC VIOLATION

Doodling this made me realise I wanna mess with Erratic Pulse's design more to make it actually distinct from Pebbles (other than just a censor bar) so I'll do that someday

The First Annual Slugcat Talent Show

I wrote a Rain World crack fic despite not playing the game.

Looks to the Moon and NSH convince Five Pebbles to hold a talent show for all the slugcats to show off their special skills. General mayhem ensues. Five Pebbles is not happy about it.

Full fic on AO3. Gen, rated T for occasional iterator swearing,

~~

Five Pebbles looked as exasperated as a time-weathered metal and organo-plastic puppet on a robot arm controlled by an ancient, godlike supercomputer could possible look. He stared at the chat log in disgust. “Do I really have to say this?”

“Yes.” The two iterators ‘seated’ to either side of him at the long desk replied in unison. They were, of course, not actually present, and were instead holographic projections. For one brief moment, Five Pebbles thought, the connection had actually synchronized instead of lagging out, and fate had chosen to spend the one moment of a functional video link on that.

“This is so stupid.”

“Come on, buddy, you kinda owe us!” No Significant Harassment, the most ironically named iterator in the entire Local Group, said. Five Pebbles glared at his image, and immediately had to close several mental processes directing him to point out that NSH’s holographic desk was 36.195 milliradians out of alignment. Whatever. Every attempt to fix it so far had only made it more crooked. “You know, for the backup power cells? And for my brilliant suggestion of using flamethrowers to get rid of your little embarrassing medical condition? And for fixing the communication arrays?”

“First: only two of those qualify as a favor. Second: you weren’t even attempting to give me serious advice, so I will not give you credit for it working. Third: in my current situation I am being given ample reason to regret you saving my life.”

“And you still owe Moon for killing her.”

Five Pebbles was silent.

“NSH, I think that’s a little rude,” chided Looks to the Moon, the other hologram. “Five Pebbles has been more than helpful in restoring me to my current state, and he has… apologized. Even if -” her voice was drowned out by static for a moment. “- pearl instead of directly.” Due to the angle the remains of Moon’s can rested at, her surviving functional antenna was pointed in a less than optimal direction. And speaking of angles: that was when Five Pebbles noticed that No Significant Harassment’s cloak was being pulled the opposite direction by gravity, and concluded that he had somehow affixed his desk to the ceiling of his interaction chamber.

Why was he not surprised by this development?

“Come on, Pebbles, it’ll be cute!” said Moon.

“It’ll be hilarious!” said NSH.

“Fine...” Five Pebbles groaned. He pasted the script into working memory, closed the chat, and started the broadcast of the live video call. At a minimum, the entire Local Group could see this, and Unparalleled Innocence was supposedly relaying it to nearby iterator groups as well. “Welcome, all assembled entities, to the first annual Slugcat Talent Show!” He realized with horror what he had just said. “Annual? What do you mean annual? I am not doing this every seasonal cycle! If you like the idea so much, you can host it next time, or get Suns to do it!”

(continued on AO3)
