#rapsta slamzy

[clowndaydreams]

what sort of behaviors do you think our clowns got from their lusci that are just a teensy weensy bit... odd for a troll to be doing? like, I can see some resemblance being charming to trolls but what's like, odd even to trolls that they do?

Going down the list!

Chahut: Sleeps with one eye open. Legit. Also hates hail storms(ducklings are offed so often due to that and DuckMom instilled that fear in her)

Marvus: Tends to not chew when he can. He thinks it is more efficient and most people don't notice unless they're really watching him.

Karako: Lists things. Constantly. If he can, he will list things. Kind of how his brain woks because of how Bronya talks. Fast learner due to this.

Hotdog: Was taught how to juggle from SeaLionMom, and cannot sleep unless he is floating on top of something or someone.

Rapsta: SalamanderDad taught him how to catch bugs with his (longer than average) tongue. So when he's focusing or bored there is a chance he will flick his tongue around.

GHB, Gamzee and Kurloz are more likely to eat random crap because of their GoatDads. Bark, paper, and the occasional can (gamzee was extremely high ok?)

The Soleil Twins tend to hop before moving. Small hops before walking/running and hop away from anything that scares them.

Thoughts and questions (remix) on Friendsim Volume 16.

Fozzer:

-We’re getting close to the other side of Thrashthrust, huh? IIRC, Outglut (where Xefros and Dammek live) is close to the outer edges of the city… // Sadly we did not even get to KonMari the heck out of Dammek's hive...

-Fozzer gives me kinda Disney vibes?? I think it’s his eyes.

-He’s also a lot less gloomy than I expected. Considering his route, has he always been like that? And will he? // oh fozzy what awaits you beyond what you've already gone through?

-Wouldn’t Fozzer know that ghosts are indeed A Thing because of burgundies’ ghost communing abilities?? Literally the only ones we know that have them are the Megidos, Xefros (and he hasn’t used it on screen yet) and assorted arena stickball players, but anyway you’d think he’d know that… On a related topic, none of the Troll Call burgundies seem to have telekinesis.

-How does Alternian cheese even look?? hopefully not very maggot-y…

-Let’s get to the meat of the route: the scratch-y (as in the universe reset) bois out there in Fozzer’s backyard. Like what are those. Fozzer says he’s been seeing them the last few nights, so either they appeared recently or he started digging the Happy Absence Pit Park recently.

-Trolls do bury their dead, if only to not have random corpses lying around. As HAPP is still under construction, we can’t tell how exactly is it meant to be more respectful to the dead yet. // how does this gel with aradia's corpse parties?? does the party start before, during or after the burial??

-Fozzer’s opinion on Alternia basically flipped after we peeked into the weird spacetime gaps and got a faceful of scratch energy- what did it do to the MC? And perhaps most importantly, has it happened before? (what else did it change?)

-(at least one version of fozzer is not there anymore. heart is identities, so…) // alas, poor fozzer. Who might you have been and what could you have achieved in a fateful timeline, that it had to be obliterated? Also, if scratch Really is trying to murder boldir because she's a threat to him, and considering her abilities... what was Fozzer capable of?

-Is the world of Friendsim somehow… falling apart? Is its non canon nature going to be resolved by it just ceasing to exist? // it... kinda didn't? This did happen in pesterquest and was resolved by MSPAR acquiring the power of extreme fix-it fics, but we don't know if they were able to reach the guys from Friendsim in their Locked Timeline...

-Davepeta: *establishes a relationship between Time and Heart with the whole Ultimate Self talk* Boldir & Fozzer: hold our beers (Tirona did have like 3 bad endings as well iirc???)

Marvus:

-The Good Cloun Streak continues. Thank fuck. (then again we were told he was a liar back when his Troll Call came out…) // His route gave him very good vibes, but what we've seen of him in Hiveswap proper looks pretty ominous... though ironically his new Troll Call bulletpoints tone down the ominousness he already had by removing “midsummer nightmare”. One of the new ones is just Friendsim Characterization Stuffs, but the other one (Mirthful idolatry)... might match the “faker” vibes he gets from the meaning of his last name, or might mean some other thing...

-Clowns confirmed not to be as dumb as they look, re: the blacklisting.

-featuring the most efficient vehicle in the entire multiverse: Hover Segway Thingy

-Marvus feels like a Blood, Light or Void player. I’m leaning towards Blood (the capricen vs lelo spiral thingy, also he’s pretty ride and die) or Light (literally attracts everybody’s attention (and other things) once they see him, like a lot), but there’s also an interesting quote: “He leaves a bloody void in his wake.”

-He could also be Heartbound or Timebound, considering Fucking Shit Up Timewise seems to also be a Heart Thing now. // it was Time, all along.

-Was the Caprist sign on his hat actually not a bamboozle? Does he instead bear Capries, the Dick Sign Extraordinaire? // he does not, as he isn't a dick (so far...)

-Re: Blood stuff: either he didn’t see the MC’s crimson blood, or he doesn’t have the same compulsion to murder anyone with that blood color.

-Play of the Game (Lifesaver): Rapsta Slamzy for changing topics away from the concert diapers. Thank you so much, one-scene-wonder clown. // never forget (rapsta's feat. apply copious amounts of brain bleach to the other thing.)

-What’s Marvus’ reason for saving us, besides the fact that we were with Zebruh? The fact that he tried so hard to save the MC from the literal doom of a timeline and what he said about the Ultimate Timeline makes me think he Knows Shit. // this extreme amount of ride-or-die leads me to believe he might not be an antagonist in Act 2, or perhaps not the biggest one...

-The clown church is impervious to the natural means of correction of a doomed timeline, except for its literal ending. Perks of having a Lord of Time as one of your Messiahs, I guess.

-Will we have a clown uprising against the seadwellers in Act 2?

we’ll just have to try not to piss ourselves I guess

There’s clearly SOMETHING up about Marvus. Is he a heart or hope player? i feel like those tend to draw people in

Zebruh in the corner: meh me: DON’T SHAME HIM HE’S TRYING

definitely heart or hope. Jake just got ALL THE BABES, and heart is outright mentioned here

...please tell me Rapsta Slamzy is just a stage name

yeah, it’s like if people rapped about how great and wonderful america is. Doesn’t even matter how you feel about the country, it’s always hammy

YOU FUCKING HYPOCRITE, YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT MARVUS LIKE THAT!!!

god you are SO much more enjoyable as a character when you’re not creeping on some lowblood girl/us

[clowndaydreams]

Would any of the clowns be hype if reader was a theater major? They find out by reader mentioning in passing that they were in a couple plays in highschool and college but forgets to mention they were not an actor, but actually on the tech crew. XD

The clownlets, Zaydel and Rapsta would be very interested in hearing all about your acting skills.

Zaydel thinks that you meant something closer to his profession, Rapsta thinks you meant you acted on some reality shows for your area and the clownlets just think acting is neat.

[clowndaydreams]

Since the hiveswap clowns are so gift-y in nature, how do they feel and react when they really missed the mark on one? like if they bought earrings and their s/o is thankful and appreciates them, but they pull their hair back and... oh yeah their ears aren't pierced. or they buy them a hobby supply set only to discover their s/o has to do some convaluted stuff to get it to a working state because it's kinda crummy.

Would get lowkey salt and try to fix immediately:

Marvus - He has an ego to preserve and giving a bad gift threatens that heavily.

GHB - Same as Marvus. Have fun fighting him when he goes to replace it.

Kurloz - Doesn’t like the awkwardness that comes with giving a bad gift, and tries to make it up to you.

Would make note and then move on:

Chahut - She knows not everything will be a hit and moves on after apologizing.

Hotdog - He’d ask what was wrong with the gift and maybe make it up to you if possible. 

Rapsta - Honestly would give you his card to choose a make-up gift you would like.

Gamzee - Would also ask you what made it a bad gift, and then think of ways to make it up or fix it. But at his own pace.

[clowndaydreams]

I would ask of ye, clowndaydreams-to bequeath upon me the clown secret moirail techniques! how would our hiveswap clowns put on the pale moves? do they like being the one to be calmed or the calmer, or are they good either way? I'm eager to see ghb, slamzy n hotdogs moves- I bet all of them have a mean pap n swaddle technique.

This. This inspired me and I have too many notes that are all decently half-baked and tweaked as I go along. I implore any of you to confer with me on this but I have a good starting point.

I think there are 3 distinct ‘pale languages’ (like love languages) that most palemates go by. Most good moirails have an idea as to what to do for all 3 categories but every relationship is different and everyone has preference and etc. Usually there are 2 main ways a pale quad will deal with an mental breaks. (I mean this in more of a Partner A does either x or y while Partner B does y or z way). So let’s go down the list. For easy understanding, A is the calmer while B is the one needing to be calmed/calm-ee. Read more for scrolling sanity.

1.Physical Touch

Best exemplified by the shoosh-pap. This technique is regarded as the most publicly acceptable way of calming a pale partner while in public as it is not *too* intimate. It is regarded as akin to a peck on the lips in public by human comparison. Intimate but not too intimate if you will. The desired affect will still happen based on the receiver. However, as with most things, there do exist other ways of calming your diamond down. Things as subtle as a hand squeeze or reassuring shoulder grab can be enough when accompanied by a shoosh(or grunt/chitter/growl/etc.) When in private, this can escalate to things like feels piles, cuddling sessions, and openly clinging to the other as they go about what they must in the hive. The touch is the most important part, as that reminds B that A is there as well as the feelings just the thought of them(A) can bring them(B). Clowns that prefer this method are Marvus, Gamzee and GHB.

Marvus tends to do affectionate hugs/dogpiles to prevent a moirail from physically doing anything. He guides them away under the guise of ‘needing them for something’. Once they are away from prying eyes, he grabs them and grounds them with assuring noises and rubs. They’re usually pretty gentle unless he really needs to restrain them. 

Gamzee does default to the shoosh-pap, shy about showing full affection and really only knowing that form since that was the only one he’s seen in public. He eventually learns other ways, but that method is a comfortable zone for him. He is partial to dogpiles in private and just reveling in his moirails touch once fully comfortable in the relationship.

GHB is more of a shoulder-clapping kind of troll. It’s his way of showing support for whatever they decide to do next. He trusts their judgement unless they have proven incapable at that specific moment. He may also rub his thumb on their shoulder blade for added effectiveness.

2.Distraction

This one is more abstract in terms of what normally goes on in it but I will give a bunch of examples. The touch-averse trolls tend to favor this language because there isn’t much to do other than guiding their diamond’s attention away from the issue. This can range from small gifts and sensory toys to popping their headphones on them with some white noise and guiding them through some small task(like breathing or something). After certain intervals A will ask B if they need to continue or change the item/method. This is also a more acceptable form of pale affection in public, but worse than a shoosh-pap. Clowns that prefer this method are Rapsta and Kurloz.

Rapsta has sensory toys out the wazoo on a normal day. He likes occupying his hands while focusing on things like appointment scheduling, song writing and generally chilling. His favorite is a fidget cube that he will hand his diamond if they get too overwhelmed. 

Kurloz tends to use his chuckles to literally force them to think about something more relaxing. Sometimes he will even project breathing exercises into their noggin with the command of ‘BREATHE’. 

While he may not prefer it, I love the mental image of Marvus using this method with squirt flowers, chewable sensory toys and pies. It would be hilarious. 

3.Isolation

This is a somewhat more concrete method. It is simply setting up your pale partner up to be comfortable and letting them stew for a few hours. This can be setting up their favorite game and leaving a snack stash, prepping a picnic for them to go on with their lusus when you know they are stressed, or swaddling them and staying semi-nearby for when they want cuddles/transition into something else. This is the second/third most variable method, but a popular one for the independent yet stubborn moirail who is ‘totally fine’ but you know will break as soon as something mildly inconveniences them. Clowns that prefer this are Chahut and Hotdog. Hotdog has perfected the shoosh n’ swaddle as he calls it. He kinda turns you into a blanket burrito. He has you lay down on a blanket, puts a small pillow under your head, 2 body pillows on either side of you and wraps you up to chill for a while. It’s just tight enough that it would take a bit of effort to escape but you can still semi-freely move around in it to do whatever he set up for you.

Chahut isn’t the type to force her diamond to talk about anything, but will set up little things that they have to do on their own so they have to cool off. Like commission them to make something for her, setting them on a walk with DuckMom because she’s ‘busy’, making lunch before leaving on ‘errands’. Stuff like that usually works like a charm. So there you have it. All of their pale techniques. If you would like to know what x clown would do with a moirail that responds to x method/language, please don’t be scared to ask. :o)

[clowndaydreams]

How do the clowns handle jealousy?

Ohhhhh this is gonna be a fun one. Let’s go down the list!

Chahut:

Chahut isn’t one to get jealous easily. She’s secure in herself and knows that if she has the official quad title, that her and her quadmate are solid. 

But if someone really seemed to be vibing better than she usually did with her quadmate?

Amisia would find herself with ALOT of a certain paint color. She knows it would likely be better to talk it out with her quad. 

But she gets cull-happy when she is jealous. Well, she gets cull-happy when she is mad/upset. The thrill and adrenaline of it manages to bring her back down to a manageable state mentally.

Eventually she will go talk to them about it, stating that they and the offender have gotten too close for comfort and should she be worried about anything?

She will mostly let it go when her S/O assures her that there is absolutely nothing to worry about.

She will be a bit sour with that other person for a while though.

Marvus:

Like Chahut, isn’t the easiest to get jealous in the first place 

His S/O had to go through a lot of his bullcrap to even get into a quad. 

And then some more to have that be the name of what they were instead of a coy ‘pail/friendship’(depending on quad)

But let’s say after all of that, some random troll manages to best him, his ego and his jolly facade and make him jealous.

Marvus is passive aggressive. Like extremely passive aggressive. Will go out of his way to get in between you 2, sometimes pointedly ignoring the offender with a simple “heyyyy buddi cmere ;o)” and then proceeding to distract his S/O for as long as it took to get the other person away.

It kills him that he can’t be blunt and get id of this bozo due to his image, but he’ll make it clear that he ‘fancies’ his quad to get that other person away.

He will not talk about it unless his S/O brings it up and even then, will never admit that he is jealous. 

Even after his S/O reassures him, that other roll will forever be blacklisted if he has any say in the matter. 

GHB:

He is not bothered at all. A lot of people of scared of him, imagine the idea of trying to steal a quad from the Clown Pope?

Instant target on your back from the rest of his caste. If you manage to escape his wrath initially.

Those willing to are 1 of 2 things: Really Oblivious/unaware who they are talking to or a Clout Chaser

His S/O can easily figure out which it is and act accordingly. 

Also helps that he trusts his quad. 

Kurloz:

More worried about himself messing up than others taking his quad away from him. 

But it is possible to get him jealous.

He will be passive aggressive to the person once he starts really feeling it

But will also immediately bring it up with his S/O when they are in private.

You and he will go over what made him feel that way and maybe some boundaries will be laid. 

Once it is dealt with, he chills out more. 

If the other person persists though he may take matters into his own hands. 

Gamzee:

Technically the easiest to get jealous out of the bunch but not that insecure

Like the others, he needs to really see them vibing beore he starts to overthink/get jealous

He’s one of the calmest of the bunch too. He withdraws rather than act out.

He will start to avoid the other person and talking about them with his quad.

He’s got abandonment issues and has learned that kicking up a fuss tends to make the situation worse rather than better.

If it goes on for long enough, he will begin to avoid his S/O as well.

His S/O would need to bring up the conversation first.

It will get emotional, because he does NOT want to lose you, but also wants the best for you.

Afterwards though, will ask for space from the offender and to cuddle for the night.

Rapsta:

If someone manages to get him jealous, he will pull his S/O to the side and let them know he’s starting to get uncomfortable with xyz. 

He will not kick up a fuss but can and will get rowdy if the offender tries him too much.

Hotdog:

Like Gamzee that he will keep to himself, but gets more touchy-feely and maybe a little defensive when the other person provokes him or gets too close. 

[clowndaydreams]

Rapsta, Marvus, n GHB are out & about w/ their STEM career s/o when someone in their peripheries does a double take & starts waving & walking towards the two. they think it's a fan (or an excited devout in GHB's case) but when they approach they don't approach them- they approach s/o! they shake their hand & talk about their most recent research journal & actually ask if they'd sign their copy! s/o is tremendously flustered & does and they only get acknowledged after the fact! how are they doin?

Rapsta is in hysterics over the whole thing. That doesn't happen everyday and his S/O's faces during that entire exchange was hilarious. And he snuck pictures of how flustered you look. He doesn't care he wasn't acknowledged first until maybe later. Marvus is extremely surprised, but keep a cool mask on until they finally notice him. He's conflicted about it but not to a serious degree. It's nice to not be hounded, but it's also kind of a bad thing for him not be??? He opts to silently sulk and change the subject. GHB kinda always forgets who he is unless he is doing official duties. Like he's more in protecc matesprit mode to start, only to be reminded that he was kind of rude to a fellow purple, even if they understand exactly why he was like that. So he feels a little bad about that. He asks more about the specific journal you signed though, he doesn't remember it. You're also adorable when you start explaining it.

[clowndaydreams]

Headcanons for the clowns going full out yandere for their bronze blood moirail? Please and thank you

This was so nostalgic. I remember when people used to send caste-specific asks lol.

It is not exactly possible to go ‘full yandere’ for moirails due to how that dynamic works. But let’s go:

It would mainly be a lot of manipulation on any of their parts. After all, you’re a lowblood who needs the protection of your moirail. You may not always know what’s best for you(which is endearing in it’s own way), but you’re also very stubborn, so they have to make you feel like it’s your idea. That or that it’s the only valid option.

Marvus and Rapsta tend to use their fame to their advantage. They want to have you around in case you need them, and also have to protect you from their fans. It just makes sense to have you with them most of the time, especially on tour. You can even have a fake job on their team for extra protection. GHB also does something similar(since he is the Clope), but requests you move in so rebels don’t try to assassinate you nor do other clowns accidentally take you as a sacrifice. 

Chahut, Hotdog and Kurloz lean more into the lowblood experience on Alternia to have them move in and not have much chance to leave. All 3 have the connections to cause scarily close drone strikes, clown mass culls and the like targeted specifically at lowbloods where they used to frequent(maybe while they’re there). All for their moirail to be asking to stay with them after one of these incidents strikes their hive(conveniently keeping their lusus alive). They’d be happy to let them stay. From then on, they can just ‘warn’ their diamonds to be sure they don’t really leave too much. 

Gamzee is a special case. He pretends that he needs the moirail to be around a lot more than they really need to be. He plays up tragedies, inconveniences and just terrible things to make it seem like he is such a wreck and where would he be without a moirail like you? It’ll get to the point where he’s in a ‘spiral’ of negative emotions and his moirail suggests moving in to perk him up a little bit. From there, he is just extremely protective about them leaving him alone for too long. Not enough for them to realize what he’s doing is unhealthy, mind you.

The goal for all of them is to keep you close to them 99% of the time and interacting with people they know, can easily hunt down or people they have power over so they can easily rectify any perceived slight against their bronze as quickly as needed. All while slowly but surely making it that they cannot escape them if they tried.
